Those rough men obviously didn't take this short old man seriously, even if the old man's beard was trembling very much. Just when Ge was about to beat these people, Di walked out from them with a grin on his face.
Without focusing on Ge, he led everyone to the carriage. When he saw Di, Ge put away his dagger, snorted coldly, got on the carriage, and turned his head in another direction.
Of Zhao Kuo's three gatekeepers, Di is the bravest, but he can't control his mouth and talks too much. Ge has the worst temper and is not good at dealing with others, but he is the only one of the three gatekeepers who is literate, and can even be regarded as Zhao Kuo's
Half an enlightenment teacher. As for Xing, Xing's reputation is very bad in the entire horse server. Before he joined Zhao Kuo, he was a notorious ranger in Handan City. After joining Zhao Kuo, he did many evil things.
.
It's just that he is the most capable among Zhao Kuo's retainers, and Zhao Kuo is willing to entrust him to complete anything he encounters. Over the years, he has never messed up a thing, and he works diligently. Zhao Kuo doesn't like his personality, but he
Didn't drive him away either.
"Shaojun, I heard that virtuous people are as dazzling as torches in the dark, and can make corporals travel thousands of miles to seek refuge. These are the heroes around Mafu. They can follow Shaojun without fear.
Those who are dead, I ask Shaojun to keep them." Di bowed to Zhao Kuo and then said.
Ge Leng snorted and didn't say anything more, but Zhao Kuo felt a little headache. This guy was just trying to cause trouble for him. He didn't have any ambitions. What did a person who was determined to be an otaku want so many customers?
Zhao Kuo looked at the heroes. Most of them were strong men, wearing weapons. There were many warriors in the land of Yan and Zhao. These were probably all the well-known warriors in the Mafu area. They looked at Zhao Kuo eagerly, as if their eyes were twinkling.
The light shone, which gave Zhao Kuo an even more headache. He didn't know what Di said to these people to make them so excited. Zhao Kuo thought for a moment before standing up and facing them.
"I know that the second and third sons are all well-known heroes in the horse service. It makes me happy that you can join me. However, Kuo is just a young man without a beard. I am worried that the second and third sons will not achieve anything if they follow me.
ah."
As soon as Zhao Kuo said this, the originally bustling road suddenly became silent. The heroes looked at Zhao Kuo in disbelief. Even Di, his eyes widened. Among the heroes, there was a man with a long face and few beards.
He glared at Zhao Kuo angrily and asked, "Does Ma Fuzi think that we come to follow you because we are greedy for fame and meritorious service?"
Isn’t it?? Zhao Kuo looked at them blankly.
Seeing that Zhao Kuo didn't answer, the man suddenly pulled out his dagger from his waist. Everyone else also pulled out their weapons. Now, Zhao Kuo was really panicked. What does this mean? If I don't want you, you will follow me.
Take action? Di, Ge! Zhao Kuo looked at his two disciples, but Di lowered his head, his face flushed with shame. Ge on the side still raised his head high, ignoring the situation here.
When these heroes pointed their weapons at him, Zhao Kuo was horrified. Only then did he understand what these people wanted to do.
They don't want to attack Zhao Kuo, they want to commit suicide!
This method is used to prove that they did not follow Zhao Kuo for fame, but only came to follow him because of the admiration in their hearts. The heroes at this time were somewhat different from those later. In the land of Yan and Zhao, most of these heroes came from
Beloved people are not the lowest level of Guizhou leaders. They cannot be insulted. Not to mention them, even the lowest level of Guizhou leaders cannot be insulted.
What they need is not money or fame, what they need is attention and a kind of trust.
In the past, when the State of Zheng was at war with the State of Song, General Hua Yuan of the State of Song slaughtered a sheep to reward the three armies before the war began. He rewarded everyone, but forgot to share the mutton with his driver Yang Zhen. Yang Zhen was very angry and thought
The general did not pay attention to himself and was insulted. So when the war started, Yang Zhen drove directly into the camp of Zheng State. Hua Yuan was captured and Song State was defeated. This is why it is said that this era
The reason why people cannot be humiliated.
"Stop!" Zhao Kuo shouted hurriedly.
Everyone looked at Zhao Kuo again, and Zhao Kuo quickly got off the carriage. He did not want to see so many people die for his words. If it were the original Zhao Kuo, it might not matter, but the soul from two thousand years later,
But he was not allowed to be so indifferent to life. He frowned, looked at these people seriously, bowed and said: "It's Kuo's fault. Kuo has realized his mistake. Please forgive me."
He bowed like this, but it shocked these people who were not afraid of death. They hurriedly avoided Zhao Kuo and did not accept Zhao Kuo's great gift. They hurriedly bowed again, "We are all willing to follow you. We are lowly."
I cannot accept your gift, so please let us stay by your side, drive your car for you, and herd your horse for you."
"All right."
"Young Master is truly a man of faith. I have lived in vain for so many years because I did not follow you earlier!"
"I want to dig out one of my own eyes. It turns out that the person we always want to follow lives next to us!"
Everyone shouted, and some even burst into tears and burst into tears. Seeing this weird scene, Zhao Kuo did not laugh. He felt something that he had never felt in his more than twenty years of life.
........
Handan City is most famous for its beauties. It is the consensus of the world that the Zhao State produces beautiful women. The princes are proud to marry Zhao women, and most of the beauties of the Zhao State are concentrated in Handan City. Handan City is the most beautiful place in the Zhao State.
A huge city, here you can see businessmen from Qi, warriors from Yan, and even taxis from Chu. These people wear bright red Chu clothes and speak in a language that Zhao people cannot understand.
Birds singing", walking on the road with swagger.
The restaurant here is not an official camp like Qin Dynasty, so the atmosphere is not so solemn. You can see many men sitting in the restaurant and bragging about something.
"I heard from others that Ma Fuzi is a truly talented person. Ma Fuzi has been familiar with the art of war since he was a child. No one can beat him. Even when Ma Fujun was alive, he was no match for Ma Fuzi. He often said
He was speechless. If Zhao has such a talented person, why is it that your Majesty is not willing to let him command Zhao's chariots to defeat Qin's army?"
"I heard that people who eat meat are mediocre. They are jealous of Ma Fuzi's talent. The Qin people have taken away our Shangdang and want to capture Changping. We can only hold on. If Ma Fuzi can command Zhao Guo
How can the Qin people continue to be arrogant with their chariots?" said one person, angrily hitting the wooden case in front of his house with his fist. The Zhao people are not afraid of death, ever since they changed their clothes and mounted their war horses.
, Zhao people never lowered their heads.
In the current war with Qin, Zhao State lost. This undoubtedly aroused the nerves of the Zhao people. Almost all Zhao people were talking about it. They were very angry. They were insulted. Zhao people cannot be humiliated.
Under this circumstance, Zhao Kuo's reputation swept the entire Zhao country at once. Not only in Handan, but almost everywhere there were Zhao people, Zhao Kuo's surname could be heard.
The people of Zhao boasted that if our cavalry went out to fight, the people of Qin would have gone home long ago. How could there be a lieutenant captured by the people of Qin?
It is said that in Yan State, some Zhao people even killed people because of Zhao Kuo's affairs. The reason for the murder was that when this Zhao person was bragging about Zhao Kuo, a Yan person asked him, who is Zhao Kuo? So,
This warrior felt that Zhao Kuo was... wrong, and he was... wrong as well. This warrior felt that the entire Zhao Kingdom had been insulted, so he killed the Yan man on the spot.
In a large courtyard in the south of Handan City, an old man and a young man sat facing each other.
"I followed your advice and went to find Kuo."
"However, he was not happy because of my words. He said that I was his friend and he would not do anything to hurt me."
Hearing Ying Yiren's words, the elder was stunned, stroking his beard, and asked in surprise: "Did he see our intention? Didn't the young master say that he was arrogant and impulsive? How could he?
Will you see through our plan?"
Ying Yiren was silent for a long time, and then said: "Kuo and I have known each other for two years, but he can't see this strategy. He probably really regards me as a friend... and is unwilling to do anything to hurt me."
, Ying Yiren said, his expression became more complicated, the older man gave him a helpless look, he was very optimistic about the young man in front of him, this unloved young man, who had great ambitions in his heart.
He was able to bend and stretch, and even if someone from Zhao insulted him, he could turn a blind eye. After he proposed a death plan against Zhao Kuo, he actually went there in person to increase the success of the plan, so that no one would doubt his courage.
It is really loved by the elderly. For me, this is the best treasure. However, Ying Yiren also has shortcomings, because he was not loved since he was a child, and then he came to Zhao Kingdom and suffered all kinds of things.
Insult, he is very sensitive.
Zhao Kuo only expressed some kindness to him, but this young man who had never experienced being cared about by others lost his composure.
"He treats me as a friend. I really don't want to do anything to hurt him. He is probably the only friend in the entire Zhao Kingdom who treats me sincerely. How about we replace Lian Po with someone else.", Ying.
The stranger said.
The older man knew this would be the case, and sighed helplessly. It would not be easy to change someone else. In order to praise this Zhao Kuo, he would go bankrupt. All his savings for decades were used to increase this young man's fortune.
Now, even in the Chu State in the south, some people remember the name Zhao Kuo. In addition, this young man Zhao Kuo was recommended to Qin by Ying Yiren. If it were replaced by someone else, then there would be you, the young master.
What's the matter? How to win the favor of the Qin people?
However, the older man didn't say that. He knew Ying Yiren's temperament, so he couldn't be convinced like this.
He bowed to Ying Yiren and said, "I hope you can promise me something."
Ying Yiren was about to help him up and said, "You are my teacher. You shouldn't treat me with such etiquette. Just say it."
"I want you to promise me that if one day I block your way to achieve great things, please kill me. I don't want people like you to delay your life because of personal affairs.
Please promise me your ambition." The older man said seriously.
Ying Yiren clenched his fists, his whole body was trembling, and he gritted his teeth.
"Okay...I agree."
"Then, how should we let King Zhao appoint Zhao Kuo?" Ying Yiren asked solemnly.
