At this time, Xu Qing was still looking at Li Hu's information.
Generals who rose from the rank of pawn are very rare in the Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains. Such people naturally have outstanding abilities, and their greatest characteristic is their stability.
He won't take risks if he can. Even if he is 90% sure, he will never do it if there is only 10% oversight.
It was precisely because of this stability that he was appreciated by Emperor Zhao.
Li Hu's temper completely coincided with his.
Just be stable!
It is so comfortable to be a conservative king, but there are huge risks in expanding the territory!
Emperor Zhao likes such steady generals, and his temperament is much stronger than that of Long Wu!
Long Wu kept clamoring to regain the lost ground all day long. Tsk tsk, do you know how risky this is?
Do you know what kind of situation Zhao will face if the Zhenxi Army fails to defeat Shezhao?
Once it fails, the society will be in turmoil, and the country will be ruined!
Let’s compare it like this, eh! It’s still reliable to cede land and pay compensation!
Stable! No risk!
Compensate once and you will be stable for more than ten years!
If you pay a few more times, you can survive until your death peacefully. As for how chaotic the world will be if you die, you can't feel it anyway.
Even if the floods surge after my death!
For Emperor Zhao, as long as he could survive in peace until his death and not be kicked off the throne by others, he would be satisfied.
It's a pity that Zhao Guo gave birth to Long Wu, who had completely opposite ideas to Emperor Zhao but had impeccable abilities.
Emperor Zhao had no other choice, because he was afraid that the Zhenxi Army would become dominant, so he always kept the Zhenxi Army under the condition that two-thirds of it was composed of recruits all year round, and all the elites tempered by the war were incorporated into the Forbidden Army.
In this case, Long Wu would be unable to do anything except defend.
Hmm! It’s so smart. Emperor Zhao even silently praised his method of balance several times.
Just like King Qi before awakening.
Because Li Hu was steady and made no mistakes, he could defend and never attack, so he was promoted all the way.
If it weren't for his lack of qualifications and fear that Li Hu wouldn't be able to suppress the group of talented generals, Emperor Zhao might have asked Li Wu to lead the Western Army.
There is rarely such a general who has a temper with the emperor!
Xu Qing summarized so much in his mind while reading the information. When Xu Qing summarized the last sentence, he couldn't help but stroke his forehead.
Li Hu is called steady, while Zhao Huang is clearly timid and fearful, and there is clear stupidity in his eyes.
Steadiness and timidity are not the same thing.
It also embarrasses Li Hu.
But as the old saying goes, people always have flaws.
Such a mature and steady general is no exception.
Li Hu's only weakness is henpecking, but Li Hu's henpecking is a little different.
As the old saying goes, behind every successful man there must be a woman who works silently.
Li Hu was just a soldier at the beginning, and he married a peasant woman who couldn't read a word. She had nothing but a bit of hard work. Although she was pretty good-looking, she couldn't be eaten by her looks.
When Li Hu went to the front line, this peasant woman raised silkworms and weaved cloth every day and took care of several acres of land at home.
Li Hu even had his military pay deducted many times by his generals. When he had no money to send home, the peasant woman not only had to take care of Li Hu's parents, but also had to send money and clothes to Li Hu who was fighting on the front line. She often had to do it herself.
Not enough to eat.
In this way, Li Hu didn't have to worry about everything at home, and his talents finally had a chance to show off. This turning point came when Chu State attacked Liuzhou.
Originally, the wise king wanted to be more greedy and occupy the land of two states. The general of Zhao State was trembling, and the God of War of Chu State personally led the troops, so he couldn't defeat him at all, right?
The leader who was originally desperate to deal with the enemy adopted the advice of Li Hu, a pawn, instead of treating a dead horse as a living horse.
Although the losses were considerable in the end, they managed to defend the city and successfully predicted that the Chu army would not be able to attack for long due to insufficient pay.
In the end, the Chu army, which was short of military pay, had no choice but to retreat to Liuzhou.
From this time, Li Hu began to make a fortune, and he was steadily promoted step by step. Unfortunately for the general, Li Hu's strategy could only be defended but not offensive, and he was too stable.
The commander-in-chief at that time felt it was a pity, but Emperor Zhao didn't feel pity at all. He was simply a military commander who coincided with him.
So Emperor Zhao promoted Li Hu step by step. One person was promoted to heaven, and his parents were granted false posts. They got money without doing anything, and no longer had to dig in the soil to eat.
Originally, Li Hu wanted to ask for a reward for his wife. Li Hu deeply remembered everything his wife had done over the years.
But at this time, Li Hu's first wife made a suggestion to Li Hu that no one expected.
She wanted them to reconcile as a couple.
The reason is also very simple. She is just a peasant housewife. She can't play chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is not as beautiful as a flower. She can't be the wife of the general's palace, and she has a very good intention.
The reason for all this is that after entering the capital, there were more and more unprovoked parties. People in these cities seemed to have nothing to do. They were always partying. For the sake of her husband's future, she did not dare to refuse these invitations.
post.
But one party after another made her realize that she could not do anything that ladies like us did. He knew nothing and often made people laugh.
These people thought how could Li Hu, who was favored by the Holy Spirit, marry such an idiotic woman to be his wife and not be so precious to her.
In order not to embarrass her husband, she had no choice but to do this. Those who are favored by the Holy Family must marry a lady from the world.
At this time, Li Hu, who became the deputy general, witnessed what happened in the family of the general. After he was promoted and made rich, he divorced his first wife, who had shared the hardships with him, and found a very beautiful woman. As a result, this woman was not only beautiful but also squandered.
No, the family will soon be ruined.
At this time, Li Hu understood the kindness of his wife better. He begged his grandfather to tell his grandma to let his wife not leave. He almost knelt down in front of her. As long as she could live a peaceful life with him, he would obey her no matter what.
The overly honest lady tried to make another plan when it failed. She thought she was virtuous and would not let her go, so she wanted something.
As long as she wants enough and is like those prodigal women, then she is not afraid that Li Hu will not drive her away!
As a general, Li Hu saw through her little thoughts. What Li Hu was thinking at this time was that his family was rich anyway. As long as his wife lived with him in peace, wouldn't it be a waste of money? He should owe everything to his wife.
Yes!
But what Li Hu didn't expect was that his wife, who had never seen the world, wanted something that made him dumbfounded.
Thirty coins, forty coins, the most expensive one is only a hundred coins...
You must know that at this moment, the emperor has rewarded your family with nearly a thousand taels of gold. Why is it that Madam is so careful when it comes to losing her family?
This appearance made Li Hu feel very distressed.
What's more important is that the lady feels that one hundred yuan is already too much.
Because in the past, she felt bad for spending ten cents on herself, and now it has doubled tenfold. With such a prodigal behavior, the general and her husband will not stop, and she will not be able to do it anymore, right?
But the ending surprised her. Her husband seemed to love her even more.
This made her unable to react for a moment. Did she do something wrong?
Shouldn’t a prodigal woman be divorced?
Finally realizing that she had not failed enough, this young daughter-in-law from a farm family finally made an excessive request to buy her husband a dress from Guoshangyuan!
Fifty taels!
very expensive!
The family all came from poor backgrounds. Even if the family was rich, they would not spend more than fifty taels at a time. Even Li Hu hesitated.
But before he could buy it, Li Hu was transferred to defend the city.
People who are henpecked are afraid that their wives will kick them out.
Li Hu was afraid that his wife would let him divorce her...
Even if I was under great psychological pressure in the military camp and watched the oiran dance, I would be careful not to let my wife know about it. If my wife knew about it, she might immediately ask for a letter of divorce.
Li Hu was really afraid that his wife would kick him...
