To be honest, after knowing Xu Chu's situation, it can be said that most people think that Xu Chu is not wrong. After all, it was the lord who asked him to enter the city, and it was the lord's order. As a subordinate, of course you have to obey the orders of your lord, that's all.

However, some people think that Xu Chu is doing something wrong. After all, you, Xu Chu, is your lord's personal guard, so who doesn't know what the lord does. So you should always be by your lord and be responsible for protecting your lord's safety. But if your lord asks you to leave, you leave. Isn't this disloyal to your duty? Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with your lord this time, otherwise it depends on what you, Xu Chu should do.

Xun You next to Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu with no expression. But he thought to himself that his lord could solve this problem in one go, and it would be solved very well.

Sure enough, after Cao Cao knew what Xu Chu meant, he waved his hand first, then raised his head and laughed: "Hahaha! Xiao Xiao just fired a cold arrow, but he didn't know that I, Cao Mengde, had already been on guard against this!"

-----------------------------------------------------

After saying that, Cao Cao got off the war horse and then helped Xu Chu up with both hands.

His lords came down to help him personally, so of course Xu Chu couldn't do anything like that that wouldn't let his lord help him up. That was really too rude.

At this time, I heard Cao Cao say again, "This matter is not on Zhongkang. Zhongkang was sent into the city by me personally, so I was in danger this time. I have nothing to do with Zhongkang!"

Cao Cao's words can be said to have cleared Xu Chu's relationship. Cao Cao was not such a petty person. To be honest, although he was also afraid, he knew that he could not blame Xu Chu. If he really said something strange, it would be up to him. But he was still careful, and he saved his life, otherwise he would be afraid.

Even a person like Cao Cao cannot be afraid of nothing. And there are a few people who don’t care about their lives, so what’s the difference between Cao Cao?

-----------------------------------------------------

When Xu Chu heard his lord's words, he hurriedly said, "Lord, the last general should not leave, so please punish him!"

When Cao Cao heard this, he shook his head and held Xu Chu's hand and said, "Zhongkang doesn't have to be stubborn. Since I asked Zhongkang to enter the city, Zhongkang naturally won't ignore it. Fortunately, there is nothing wrong now, so Zhongkang doesn't have to blame himself!"

As he said that, he looked at Xun You and gave Xun You a wink, saying that I'm going to talk to you.

To be honest, Cao Cao would definitely not punish Xu Chu. He also had to comfort him with kind words. This is something that is necessary for being a lord, and it is to win people's hearts. Of course, if you really want to win the hearts of your subordinates, it will not be achieved overnight. This matter has to be done slowly and slowly.

Of course, Cao Cao knew Xu Chu's loyalty and loyalty, but he believed that since this incident, Xu Chu could only be more loyal to himself, so his goal can be said to have achieved it.

When Xun You speaks at this time, he will naturally give Xu Chu a step. He also knows that his words are sincere, but Xu Chu is a man of good face and stubbornness, so he really can't just say that he is not guilty, so he can only let Xun You speak, and others are not suitable.

-----------------------------------------------------

Xun You naturally understood what his lord meant. He said at this moment, and it seemed that he had to do it, and his lord would not let him go.

At this time, he heard him say to Xu Chu, "General Zhongkang doesn't have to do this, no need to do this. Although General Zhongkang feels guilty about this, fortunately, the lord is safe and sound. As for the general entering the city, he was ordered by the lord, so the lord doesn't have to stick to this. If you have the opportunity to kill more enemies in the future, then this is the best. I believe that the lord also thinks the same!"

Sure enough, Cao Cao nodded straight, "No, not bad, that's true! Zhongkang doesn't have to blame himself. This matter is not yours. Now that our army has won a great victory, we should celebrate it well, not like this!"

After hearing what his lord said, Xun You all spoke, and several colleagues came over and persuaded Xu Chu a few more words. In this way, Xu Chu stopped talking. Of course, who would be punished, Xu Chu was naturally even more reluctant. But he really thought he was responsible, so he blamed himself in his heart, and then he made his lord like this.

-----------------------------------------------------

So at this time, when he heard his lord's words, Xu Chu finally stopped bent on this matter.

At this time, Cao Cao asked, "I wonder who called me just now?"

Didn’t a soldier shout before? Is the lord careful? So Cao Cao heard it, but he didn’t know which soldier shouted, so he asked.

A soldier stood out from the crowd, "Lord, he is small."

Cao Cao glanced at the soldier and said, "What's your name?"

"Back, go back to the lord, the youngest name is Li Gen!"

His father was in his forties when he had him, and he was just such a child, so he gave him such a name.

Cao Cao nodded with a smile, and then said, "Okay, Li Gen, you are very good! Go and receive the reward in a while, and the reward is 5,000! Five pieces of silk cloth!"

-----------------------------------------------------

When Li Gen heard this, he immediately smiled, and then quickly said, "Thank you, thank you lord!!"

Cao Cao smiled and waved his hand at him. He asked him to retreat, and then said to everyone: "Our army has always had clear rewards and punishments, but today we have broken the city. Thank you for your hard work, and you all have made contributions, so I hope the whole army will celebrate for a day, and you all will go!"

When all the soldiers of Yanzhou were very happy when they heard this, they were very happy. To be honest, when they rewarded Li Gen before, most of the soldiers were envious and jealous. To be honest, don’t look like five thousand coins or five pieces of cloth. But for them, that’s really a lot, so how can they not envy Li Gen?

However, his lord said he wanted to celebrate for a day, and the soldiers were all happy. He said he wanted to celebrate. He must have to slaughter sheep, eat meat and improve the food, how could they be unhappy?

When it’s not time for good things to come, you can only be envious and jealous, but if you have good things to come, you will naturally be happy. Isn’t this the case for everyone?

-----------------------------------------------------

At this time, the soldiers of Yanzhou shouted in unison. "Lord! Lord!"

There were also people who shouted long live, but Cao Cao just smiled at it. Then he let everyone disperse, doing whatever they should do, after all, he had to clean the battlefield.

Then at this time he said to the generals, "Everyone, let's go to the mansion to see those people!"

"promise!"

Everyone agreed in unison, knowing that their lord was going to the county magistrate's residence, and that they wanted to see the surrender first, and that they were also the officials of Wuling who were controlled by their soldiers, and then there was a celebration banquet. Isn't it always this routine? Everyone was so familiar with this that they could not be familiar with it anymore. To be honest, it seems that these have never changed anything, and they have always been like this.

The group went straight to the county magistrate's mansion, and then some people comforted each other, and then gave the list to help the people. These things were put on the list.

-----------------------------------------------------

To be honest, Cao Cao rewarded Li Gen before, but in fact, Li Gen's words did not have much effect on Cao Cao at all.

At least Cao Cao had seen the cold arrow, and it happened almost at the same time, but Cao Cao still rewarded Li Gen. I have to say that this is what he thought of being a lord.

Cao Cao could win people's hearts, and he would certainly know that he would bribe the hearts of all the soldiers. His Yanzhou army has always been clear in rewards and punishments. Xu Chu is right, so he naturally cannot punish him. And if Li Gen has made merits, of course he should be rewarded. Yes, Li Gen's words are basically useless to him, but others don't know, and the soldiers don't know. They just know that Li Gen reminded him that he has made merits, so Li Gen should reward him.

To put it bluntly, this is what Cao Cao did for everyone to see, the soldiers of the Yanzhou Army and even the people of Linyuan City who secretly looked at him. Cao Cao wanted everyone to know that his Yanzhou Army has always been rewarded and punished clearly. If he has made merits, he will definitely be rewarded, but if he has made mistakes, he must be punished.

-----------------------------------------------------

Let me put it this way, the military discipline of the Yanzhou army is the best in the world. Now, there is a reason for taking a closer look.

From Cao Cao, to generals, to ordinary soldiers of the Yanzhou army, it can be said that they all know the rules of their own army. Especially Cao Cao, who was the lord, never forgot to let his subordinates and everyone understand these things. Cao Cao set an example, otherwise he would not have the allusion of cutting his hair to replace the head, so it is because of this.

Even if his lord horse was frightened and trampled on the crops of the people, he would be punished, let alone the other person from the Yanzhou Army.

Moreover, Yu Jin, the one who controls the punishment in the Yanzhou army is Yu Wenze. It can be said that Cao Cao was still very satisfied with the punishment. At least Cao Cao knew very well that Yu Jin had two major characteristics, which should be said to be advantages and strengths. The first is naturally that he is an expert in military training and is definitely one of the best among the Yanzhou army. The second is that he has extremely strict requirements on his soldiers and has very strong constraints on his soldiers, so Cao Cao has always felt at ease when he lets him take charge of the punishment in the Yanzhou army.

And after so many years, Cao Cao saw Yu Jin's work, which was indeed good. In this regard, he did not misunderstand.

-----------------------------------------------------

So look, although Yu Jin has many shortcomings. Cao Cao really values ​​him very much. After all, he is really good, but he is not useless. So Cao Cao reused him, but there is no reason. But what Cao Cao didn't see yet is that Yu Jin was still not loyal to him and the Yanzhou army, but now he has not been threatened with any life and has not been damaged, so naturally he can't see anything.

Yu Jin led his soldiers to chase Huo Jun. Unfortunately, they all chased him out of the city, but Huo Jun and others were gone.

Yu Jin didn't think that his speed was very slow, but now the situation was that there was no shadow. He knew that this was because he was not familiar with the road, so even in the sun, he didn't find where Huo Jun and the others were going. There were several roads, but where to chase them. Who knew. And Yu Jin also understood that since he didn't see other people's shadow at this time, he basically couldn't catch them, so he should hurry back to Linyuan to send his master the bus service, otherwise what else can he do.

In the end, Yu Jin had no choice but to lead his troops back, which was like Zhang Fei chasing Han Dang, and it was all in vain. Even Han Dang knew how to escape and not be caught, which was the most beneficial to him. So let alone Huo Jun.

-----------------------------------------------------

Huo Jun went north all the way and was about to go directly to Nanjun.

Although the south of Nanjun was Liu Bei's territory, Huo Jun had known it long ago that his lord and Sun Ce formed an alliance and formed the Sun-Liu coalition. Because he was besieged by the Yanzhou army, he did not know that Xiangyang had been captured by the Sun-Liu coalition, but he knew all the previous events.

Looking at his soldiers in a mess, although he was a defeated soldier, Huo Jun really didn't like to see his soldiers in the same way.

So although he was busy running away, he still asked the entire army to stop the march and shouted to all the soldiers, "What are you doing? Look at what you are like? Why, you will be depressed after losing once? Don't say it's the person brought by me, Huo Jun and Huo Zhongmiao, I can't afford to lose this person!"

When the soldiers heard their general's words, many of them lowered their heads.

-----------------------------------------------------

Huo Jun looked at everyone and continued, "Why, I'm sorry? Haha, who hasn't failed? What are you many! The ancients said, 'Victory and defeat are common in military affairs', don't you understand this? Didn't I, Huo Jun, Huo Zhongmiao, also defeated together? I didn't do anything. Look at you again, it's like a dead father..."

As a result, Liu Bei's soldiers were scolded by Huo Jun.

Huo Jun was actually really, and he didn't want to say anything. Because at this time, he prefers to be quieter and think about something, and then he just met his lord earlier and told about the war in Wuling.

However, when he noticed that his soldiers were like this, he knew that he could not say anything like this anymore. In this way, Yu Jun would be unfavorable. His lord gave him three thousand people, but there were a lot left now, but he could not let them have the heart to be in funeral. The Yanzhou army is powerful, but it is not scary. Once his soldiers are decadent and have no desire to fight, it will be really over. So Huo Jun made a quick decision and had to stop the march, and then give these soldiers a wake-up call and let them all wake up.

-----------------------------------------------------

Huo Jun continued, "I was defeated today, we were defeated. But this is not scary and not embarrassing. But like you, I think the enemy is the most terrifying thing!"

After pausing for a while, Huo Jun shouted loudly to everyone: "I ask you to adjust well, but if you continue like this, get out of here. I, Huo Zhongmiao, don't know such a person, and the lord doesn't have such soldiers. Is the Yanzhou army scary? What are you afraid of? What are you decadent? If they dare to come, I, Huo Zhongmiao, will kill one of them! Look at you again, what are you all going to be like. There is no need for the Yanzhou army to come, you are all defeated, do you know?"

"Where you fall down, get up there. If you lose today, will we still lose tomorrow? The Yanzhou army won today, but will they always win? Tell me, don't you want to take revenge or avenge your shame? What do you think about those dead brothers? You speak!"

Speaking of this, Huo Jun spoke like he was crazy, which really scared the soldiers. This was the first time they saw his general like this, and they had never seen him before. Of course, such a thing had never happened.

-----------------------------------------------------

Finally, Huo Jun calmed down himself, calmed down his tone, and said to everyone, "You should think about it carefully, and I hope you can understand what I mean today. Failure is not scary, but I am afraid that I will not even have the courage to face failure." (To be continued...)
