Although Jian Shuo is also one of the Ten Constant Attendants, his style of painting is completely different from the others among the Ten Constant Attendants. He is eight feet tall, has a strong back and strong waist, is highly skilled in martial arts and is good at leading troops. The most amazing thing is that he actually has three inches of hair left.
With his long beard and arrogant look, he looked like a fierce general fighting on the battlefield.
Today, Liu Hong has great trust in Jian Shuo. He not only made him the captain of the Xiyuan Eighth Army, but also commanded the rest of the Xiyuan Army in addition to the troops directly under his command. Of course, this is just a theory.
Not to mention that Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others didn't take him seriously at all, even some of his generals colluded with outsiders.
After Wang Yue and the others left angrily, Jian Shuo said to Chen Cheng, "Follow me!"
After saying that, he led the people straight back to the military camp. It was not exactly the same as Chen Cheng's idea that the Xiyuan Army was He Jin's sphere of influence. The emperor's purpose of setting up the Xiyuan Army was to divide the military power in the hands of General He Jin, and to
This was to check and balance the Northern Army, which was about to move. But the idea was good, and Jian Shuo could not suppress the arrogant and powerful generals under his command. Except for himself, most of the generals were connected with the general He Jin.
Therefore, when he encountered Chen Cheng being chased by Yuan Shu's men today, he took action to stop him. There was really no one in hand, so he picked up a piece of green vegetables and put it on the plate.
The reputation of the Eunuch Party is too bad, and few of their subordinates are capable of taking action, and they are not of the same mind. On the other hand, on General He Jin's side, there are countless civil servants and generals surrounding the General.
When they arrived at the military camp, Jian Shuo said to Chen Cheng: "Boy, don't say I won't give you a chance. Use whatever skills you have. If you are really strong in martial arts, you will be a high-ranking official and rich in salary. If you are a coward, hey...
....."
He did not continue, but sneered.
Chen Cheng raised his eyebrows and put aside all the calculations in his mind. He jumped off the horse and said, "Bring me a bow and arrows."
Jian Shuo said: "Give it to him!"
A soldier handed over the bow and arrow. Chen Cheng took it and pulled it, saying, "It's too soft. Is there anything harder?"
After changing it several times, he still said: "It's too soft!"
The soldier looked at Jian Shuo in embarrassment and said, "Colonel Lieutenant?"
Jian Shuo's face brightened when he saw Chen Cheng effortlessly drawing the three-stone bow to its full height. He thought for a moment and said, "Bring that sunset bow."
The soldier followed the order and soon took over a very violent-looking bow. This "Sunset Bow" was more than one-third longer than the ordinary bow, and the bow arms at both ends were made of hemp.
The rope was tied carefully. After Chen Cheng took it, he tried it and used 50% to 60% of his strength to pull it until it was half full. He couldn't help but feel surprised. He used enough strength in his hands to pull it open and slowly removed it.
He used the strength in his hands to avoid damaging the bow string, and then praised: "What a strong bow!"
He was just a little surprised in his heart. Jian Shuo's surprise was only several times stronger than his. The "Sunset Bow" was the strongest and hardest bow in the arsenal. Even though he had extraordinary physical strength, he usually had to be lucky for a long time before he could pull it.
Just once. Who would have thought that someone could pull away so casually?
You know, apart from him, there are not many generals in the army who can even make it half full, let alone full.
A smile appeared on Jian Shuo's face and he said: "What a great strength!"
He pointed at the archery target on the school field, his tone became much better, and said, "See if you can hit it."
Chen Cheng picked up his bow and nocked an arrow. According to his usual shooting method, he placed the closed crosshair one finger above the target. After thinking about it, he lowered the height by half a finger, and then released his right hand.
"Snapped!"
The arrow shot out and was inserted above the target. He originally planned that the arrow would hit the target, but he didn't expect that the power of the "Sunset Bow" was a little stronger than he expected, and the arrow missed the mark.
The bull's-eye was still some distance away. After Chen Cheng shot one arrow, he corrected the trajectory, and the next few arrows hit the bull's-eye.
When he picked up the last arrow in the quiver, a big hole had been opened in the center of the target. He opened the "Sunset Bow", took aim, and then put it down again, saying: "Colonel, this is the last arrow."
There’s no need to shoot the arrow.”
"Hahaha," Jian Shuo smiled from ear to ear and said loudly, "Of course!"
Jian Shuo expressed the same emotion as Tian Yu: Who would have thought that you could pick up an unparalleled marksman on the road? Shoot twenty...nineteen arrows in a row. Who else in the world can do it?
Destiny is mine!
He stepped forward, took Chen Cheng's hand, and said affectionately: "In my opinion, even if Li Guang is reborn, he can't do better!" Jian Shuo said: "I must recommend you to His Majesty! By the way.
,what's your name?"
Well, after working on it for a long time, I didn’t even know other people’s names. Chen Cheng moved his fingers and said, “My name is Chen Cheng, and my writing is correct.”
"Chen Cheng and Chen Wenzheng?" Jian Shuo pondered for a while, turned around and asked Army Commander Pan Yin, "Why does this name sound so familiar? Have you read it in the recent military newspaper?"
Pan Yin lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and said: "Memorial from the Governor of Liaodong."
"Oh!" Jian Shuo patted his thigh and said, "So it's you! No wonder Shen Yong is so brave! When I saw the official document Gongsun Zan sent to the court, I thought it was a fake. Now it seems that only brave men like Wen Zheng can
Only then can you accomplish such extraordinary feats!"
He said to Chen Cheng: "You were..."
"Captain Lieutenant."
"Then first become a military marquis under me," Jian Shuo said, "When you have accomplished military exploits, I will report to the Emperor of Heaven and grant you the title of marquis!"
He laughed for a while and said to his left and right: "Come and meet Chen Junhou!"
Hundreds of people gathered around, leaned down, and shouted in unison: "See Chen Junhou!"
Jian Shuo took Chen Cheng's hand and said, "You go take a shower and change clothes first, and I will help you wash away the dust later!"
Being held by a bearded eunuch, Chen Cheng felt a little bored. Isn't it a bit too much for him to keep thinking about being rebellious when someone is so enthusiastic? Although he also knows that "when you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something", but
He has always been a reasonable person. If others respect him, he will return the favor.
The West Garden Army was stationed in the West Garden of Luoyang, so it was called the West Garden Army. There was a place for washing in the West Garden. Chen Cheng was taken to the house, and someone had already prepared a large bucket of hot water for him.
He stretched out his hand and touched it, and found that the temperature was just right. It was just that he had not had the chance to take a shower before, but now that he could take a shower, he suddenly felt itchy.
You must know that he can take a shower six times a day. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has a slight mysophobia, even though he has always denied this statement. The military camp is full of men, there is no need to avoid anything, he takes off his clothes cleanly, and then dances
He got into the barrel. Of course, he didn't mind even if there was a woman. He took out the shampoo and soap and happily took a hot bath.
When I was taking a shower, several sergeants asked outside the door: "Junhou, do you want hot water?"
"want!"
Two soldiers came in carrying a wooden bucket, cooled the boiling water a little, and then carefully poured it into the large wooden bucket. He asked for hot water several times, but the temperature of the water in the wooden bucket rose to more than 60 degrees, which was already unbearable for ordinary people.
, but he behaved as if nothing happened.
After washing, as soon as he came out of the barrel, soldiers came in holding silk clothes and trousers.
"Is this for me?"
The soldier smiled and said: "The military captain ordered us to prepare the best clothes for the military princes. This kind of silk is the same as that used by the concubines in the harem."
Chen Cheng didn't care about being looked at, so he generously wiped the water drops on his body with a cloth and said, "Bring it here!"
The soldiers glanced down at him a few times, secretly admiring him, and put him in gorgeous clothes. Chen Cheng was a man who could squat on the ground and eat steamed buns, and he could also pick up a knife and fork to eat steak elegantly. He just stood there.
, and asked three or five stout soldiers to dress him and tie his belt.
The suit of clothes Jian Shuo sent over was extremely gorgeous and complicated. It was really difficult for one person to put it on without anyone's help. After changing his boots and fixing his long hair with a hosta on his head, he was a handsome and elegant young man.
Appeared in front of several soldiers.
"this........"
After a few soldiers were busy for a while, they were stunned when they saw Chen Cheng, who was wearing gorgeous clothes and with skin as smooth and fair as jade. They couldn't help but said: "The appearance of a military prince is really..."
Chen Cheng smiled and said, "What is it really?"
A soldier spoke frankly and said: "She is really more beautiful than the empress in the palace!"
"Haha!" Chen Cheng laughed and said, "Have you ever seen The Empress in the Palace?"
The soldier said sheepishly: "I saw it once from a distance."
Two more soldiers walked in from the outside, presented the wooden plates they held in their hands, and said: "These are given by the marshal to the military princes for daily use."
Chen Cheng uncovered the red silk on the wooden tray. On one tray were golden gold bars, and on the other tray were many copper coins. He smiled slightly and said to himself: "Jian Shuo's bet is a bit big.
, it’s a gift of clothes and gold.”
Chen Cheng casually grabbed a handful of copper coins and stuffed them into the arms of the soldiers around him. Everyone had a share and everyone was in vain, and said: "Take it to drink."
The soldiers laughed so hard that they couldn't close their mouths, and they kept saying: "Thank you for your reward, Junhou."
Chen Cheng smiled slightly, and he had a charming charm that could captivate an entire nation, which dazzled several soldiers. But maybe it was because he had a layer of gold on his body. If you have money and power, you don't have to worry about your charm.
Going up?
"Jun Hou, please come this way!"
Jian Shuo was still wearing a fiery red war robe, as if dressing up as a warrior could better demonstrate his masculinity. He had already held a banquet in the hall, and when he saw Chen Cheng wash off the dust from his body, he couldn't help but get excited.
mouth.
"you you........."
Chen Cheng saluted and said: "Chen Cheng pays homage to the captain."
"Why are you like this?" Jian Shuo blurted out, but then he felt something was wrong, so he laughed and said: "Chen Junhou, please take a seat."
There were many generals under Jian Shuo at the banquet. When they saw Chen Cheng's appearance, they were all surprised. Jian Shuo suppressed the surprise in his heart and repeatedly asked for wine. He was the emperor's most trusted official...
One of them was the only one who was released to take charge of the army. Not only did Chen Cheng feel that something was wrong, but the other generals could also see it. They were not stupid. They glanced at each other during the banquet and speculated in their hearts.
Chen Cheng calmed down and ate as much meat as he could and drank as much wine as he could. Some generals were still a little resentful that he had become a military lord as soon as he came. They thought that a pretty boy would definitely not be able to drink, so he came up to drink with ill intentions, but was knocked down one after another.
Several of them got off. At the end, Chen Cheng stood up and paid tribute to them one by one, making all the generals and commanders present drunk.
Even Jian Shuo couldn't escape and got very drunk.
