Chapter 399 Giving the Sword
A few days later, a team came from the south gate of Xiapi.

At the beginning, this did not arouse the guard's idea. Xiapi is the political center of today's army. It is common for such a small number of teams to enter and exit the city gate, either out of the city for patrol, or on patrol.

But this team is completely different from them.Anyone who understands the military system of the Han Dynasty will see that in this squad of only a dozen or so cavalry, most of them are officers above Dubo.

The person walking in the front was tall and strong, and he was wearing armor all over. The middle man grows up the two elders on the left and the right.But judging from the general's casual yet friendly attitude towards the two, it can be seen that these two are obviously his personal soldiers.

A group of people approached the city gate unhurriedly, until the horseshoe stepped on the suspension bridge, the gatekeeper finally saw clearly, and was startled immediately.

At present, there are not many generals in the Tianjun. Even if it is a Zhonglang general, it doesn't mean that you can see it when you see it.

In the Han Dynasty, there was a meeting ceremony. When the subordinates paid homage to their superiors, they had to pay respects to their superiors. Officials saluted each other. The law of class in the military was even stricter. When a subordinate saw a superior, regardless of their affiliation, they had to kneel and salute. For example, the famous In the story of Emperor Wenwen of the Han Dynasty "Xiliu Laojun", Zhou Yafu used the "armored man" as an excuse not to bow down, but soldiers who did not wear armor still had to bow down.

Of course, in order to cultivate the sense of honor and self-confidence of their own army, although the military system of the Han Dynasty has been restored, the rule of kneeling has been canceled by Wang Zheng.

However, many soldiers forgot in their panic. Even more than a dozen guards fell to their knees, and then Du Bo turned out from behind the city gate to greet them.

Along the way, passing through several cities, people have seen many similar situations.A captain behind Zhonglang stepped forward as usual, intending to tell them to stand up without ceremony.

Unexpectedly, the Du Bo was just being helped up, and when he saw the Zhonglang Jiang, he was startled, and then he immediately exclaimed.

"Lieutenant Huang Zhong, have you become a general of Zhonglang so soon?"

It turned out that General Zhonglang was Huang Zhong who had returned in triumph. He was shocked when he heard this. He was sent to Langya not long after he joined Wang Zheng's command. He didn't stay here for a long time. There are not many acquaintances, how can anyone know him?

Following the prestige, he looked at Dubo for a long time, and became more and more confused.

I don't know this person.

Is it really old?

Thinking of this, he blushed, jumped off his horse quickly, strode up to Uncle Du, helped him up with his own hands, and said embarrassedly: "Brother, I am getting old, and my memory is a bit useless, so I don't take the liberty to ask." , how did you know me?"

"General Huang misunderstood." Hearing this, Nadu couldn't help laughing, and quickly explained in a low voice: "You don't know the last general, but... hey, if it weren't for General Huang, the last general wouldn't be there either. This Du Bo, with such a great kindness, naturally wants to take the initiative to get to know General Huang's appearance."

Huang Zhong became more and more confused, and was about to continue to question, looked around, thought for a while, and suddenly remembered.

Isn't this the city gate where I met my lord that day?
"So that's how it is." He laughed, and couldn't help but patted Uncle Du on the shoulder: "Just now I wondered if it's really old, and I can't even remember old friends, that's really rude!"

When Pingshou was captured, Zang Ba's men and horses had successfully joined forces with Yu Jin and Xu Fang, and then Huang Zhong was in charge of attacking the southern city gate. He directly took off his clothes, went into battle in person, rushed to the front line, and broke through the city in one fell swoop.

Although Wu Sheng was the first to lead the team into Pingshou, but that was because of the opening of the city gate. If it is said that the real first to ascend to the first place, it is actually Huang Zhong.

Knowing that this Five Tiger General has made many meritorious service this time, Wang Zheng, who originally wanted to win over, was not stingy with rewards, and became even more generous. Even if he was sent an order, he was directly promoted to a third rank, and the Central Committee was restored. General Lang's official position.

And this situation fell into the eyes of Yu Jin, Zang Ba and others, they are also smart people with sophisticated human relations, how can they not see how much Wang Zheng values ​​Huang Zhong?

Therefore, after sending back the brief victory report to Xiapi in a hurry, this time when it was time to send someone to bring back the official victory report and the credits of the officers and men of the various ministries, several generals discussed and decided on Huang Zhong.

"Isn't General Huang fighting Beihai? I heard from the official that although Pingshou fell, the war has not stopped. Why are you back now?"

Uncle Du was acquainted, seeing Huang Zhong's promotion so fast, he took the opportunity to continue the conversation: "Could it be that Beihai has been calmed down?"

"How can it be calmed down so quickly?" Huang Zhong laughed dumbfounded, and waved his hands, "Beihai has dozens of counties and counties. Even one city per day is not enough time."

"Pingshou, Kong Rong is gone, and most of the cities in the Gyeonggi area have indeed surrendered, but there are still some stubborn resistance in some places farther away."

"There are only [-] troops in my front, which is not enough to launch a final offensive. Moreover, General Xu said that the more urgent it is at this time, the more urgent it is, so as not to fail. Therefore, the entire army is currently stationed in the Pingshou area, waiting for the follow-up troops to follow up. Come on. This time I came back to meet Zhou Mu at the order of General Yu."

"So that's how it is." Nadu Bo said clearly: "General Huang must have made great contributions again, so General Yu sent you back to meet the general, this is clearly asking for your merits and rewards!"

To return triumphantly, to face the king, this is a first-class job.

In terms of official position, Huang Zhong is not ranked high, and in terms of closeness, he is not worth mentioning in front of Xu Fang and Wu Sheng, so why only send him back?

It was because several generals could see that Wang Zheng valued Huang Zhong.

Since he has his heart, Huang Zhong's future is obviously bright. It is inevitable to do such things that can not only cater to his heart, but also make good friends with future important ministers in advance.

Huang Zhong laughed, but he didn't answer the conversation, he just raised his head and looked in front of his eyes, and asked in surprise: "Today is not a big festival, why are the gongs and drums in the sky, and the voices of people, so lively?"

"They are all celebrating our army's victory in capturing Pingshou."

"Oh?"

"The people are very happy. Since the day before yesterday, Xiapi City has never been quiet. Men and women, in groups. Yesterday, I was not on duty, and wandering around the street, hey, not only young people, but also Guys, even some old people are out on the street."

Huang Zhong listened, feeling a sense of accomplishment spontaneously.As a human being, no matter where we are, we all long for the approval of others and hope to hear praise from others.As a soldier, what an honor and pride is it to fight on the front line, return triumphantly, and celebrate with the whole city?
Wasn't it because of this moment that he left his hometown and came to Xuzhou?

Isn't it just to ask for a hero to be useful, and to be a marquis in blood?

The whip knocks on the golden pedal, and people sing triumphant songs.

Huang Zhong met Wang Zheng and presented the victory document. Wang Zheng was really happy. That night, a banquet was held that night, and all civil and military officials from Xuzhou attended.

At this time, although Huang Zhong had already obtained the official title of "General Zhonglang", after all, it was not long, and it was only a false title, so he had no confidence and was not qualified to sit in the front.

However, Wang Zheng didn't care, he directly pulled him to sit on the chairman seat, and got close to him. Such a courteous treatment, in addition to the great merits of Huang Zhong's establishment this time, also increased his efforts to strike while the iron was hot, so that he could return to his heart again, and took the initiative to send out One application for enlistment's sake.

All the ministers stood up, and the first cup of wine was naturally to respect Wang Zheng first.

Mi Heng took the lead in making a toast: "Today, our heavenly army has traveled thousands of miles and destroyed the capital of the enemy's country with a single drum. It has the courage of the generals and the strategy of the officials. But the one who has done the most is the lord."

"Without the lord's brilliance and martial arts, and strict rewards and punishments, the generals would not be brave; without the lord's strategizing and listening to others, the ministers' suggestions and suggestions would be useless."

Guo Jia also said: "Looking at the heroes in the north, attacking each other, it seems that the arrogance is soaring, but how many people are there who can break a country like the Lord?"

"My lord, Xike Jinu, has broken through the kingdom of Kong in the north. The name of the lord and the prestige of the lord must be displayed on all four sides, and the pattern is on the top and bottom. All ministers, congratulations to the lord."

In comparison, what Mi Heng said was more pertinent, and he did not attribute all the credit to the king's government, but pointed out that civil servants and military generals gave advice and fought bloody battles.

However, Guo Jia's remarks are more about praising Wang Zheng alone.

Although Wang Zheng's current performance is not that kind of arrogant and arrogant, but after all, everyone loves to listen to good words, let alone a young and promising king?
"Being able to live a long life is of course a great contribution to this general."

Wang Zheng also stood up, picked up his wine glass and teased: "After all, if the general does not have this thought, how can you show off your talents? Then the credits of the lords and the high spirits of the lords will all become mirrors. ?"

He talked freely in private, but he always followed the rules on such occasions, it was rare for him to tell a joke, and everyone cheered him on, and there was constant laughter in the hall.

Wang Zheng looked straight, and then said: "Although this battle is won, the North Sea has not been leveled, and Yuan Jun has not left. You should not be proud, let alone slack off. If we can always unite with one heart and sincerely, such a victory will be won in the future. Is there still less?"

"This glass of wine, let's drink together!"

"Everyone congratulates me, and I also congratulate you, haha!"

For a time, the monarch and his ministers get along well.

After drinking for three rounds, Wang Zheng looked at Huang Zhong beside him, and the more he looked at him, the happier he became.

Huang Zhong was dispatched this time to plate him with gold. After all, in the eyes of everyone in the hall, Kong Rong's reputation is naturally far better than Huang Zhong at this time, but in the eyes of Wang Zheng, a later generation, ten Kong Rong, or even ten A Beihai is not as good as a Huang Zhong!
The cost of Ma Daogong is expected. The biggest gain is that Huang Zhong made the credit, and it is logical for his family to have reasons for promotion and rewards.

For such a general and famous general who is not too young, Wang Zheng would not be willing to spend his time on top of some small pawn or captain.

only.
Looking at the transparent box hanging in the air, Wang Zheng sighed secretly, Huang Hansheng, Huang Hansheng, why didn't you receive your second application for joining the team?
Thinking of this, Wang Zheng glanced at Huang Zhong, and suddenly shouted: "Hang Dao immediately, but I, General Huang, come here, Han Sheng, let's make a drinking order and punch two times, let's see who wins and who loses? "

After all, Huang Zhong was born as a warrior, but he was not as smart as a scholar, let alone eloquent. After a few words of resignation, he couldn't stand Wang Zheng's insistence. The two started to guess.

Of course, he is not stupid, not so stupid that he really puts his all into confrontation with Wang Zheng, even if it is for fun, there is no reason for a courtier to win against the monarch.

With scruples in his heart, he lost three points first in terms of momentum.The two punched back and forth, and in the blink of an eye, Huang Zhong lost three cups in a row.

Guo Jia and others roared with applause.

Wang Zheng knew that the victory would be unwarranted, so he laughed, and stopped continuing. Looking at Huang Zhong at this time, his face was already flushed in the light, obviously he was the type of face drunk.

Some drinkers get angry, some don’t, and there are several kinds of people who get angry. Some people get paler the more they drink, and some get redder the more they drink. This is the same as when they are angry. , it is because of the anger of the blood, it is because of the anger of the muscles, it is because of the anger of the muscles, it is because of the anger of the bones.

"Han Sheng is really a tiger general." Wang Zheng was a little drunk, pointing and laughing: "Such bloody and furious courage is awe-inspiring."

Having said that, he suddenly pushed away the wine glass, stood up, and immediately drew out the dagger from its sheath, flicking it with his fingers.

"Jiang!"

Amidst the clanging sound, the audience's voice immediately subsided, and everyone's eyes instantly focused on Wang Zheng.

In the silence, Wang Zheng occupied the dragon seat alone, looked down at the officials from a high position, and said leisurely: "I defeated a powerful enemy in the past, and got a sword called Chifeng."

"I have collected it so far, and every night, I often hear the box on the wall chanting. According to Zuo Zhuan, a good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a virtuous minister chooses a master to do things. As people are, so are swords!"

"Unable to find the owner, the long sword is empty and sharp, it is also a pity for the husband!"

Speaking of this, Wang Zheng's eyes flickered and fell on Huang Zhong: "Han Sheng, I am very happy that you sent the good news today, but thinking of fighting on the battlefield, it has always been extremely dangerous. Beware of fierce soldiers and dangerous battles."

"This sword is given to you. I don't want to break the formation and slash the generals, but I want to protect you comprehensively!"

Hearing these sincere words, Huang Zhonghu's eyes couldn't help turning red, and his eyes fell on the upside-down sword.

Under the lamplight, the body of the sword became more and more radiant with crimson blood streaks hidden in the shape of flames, and the word "Chifeng" was cast on the hilt of the sword. Everyone with a discerning eye knows that this is a rare sword. Sharp sword.

This is exactly the Chifeng sword that was chopped off by Chengsheng Wanlifu that day!
However, this does not mean that Chi Feng is not as good as winning thousands of miles, because the two had a battle that day, and Sun Ce fell into a passive and beaten situation in the later stage. Chi Feng was used as a shield, and Wang Zheng was already supernatural. Amazing, it is not a crime of war.

Not long afterward, Sun Ce left in a hurry, abandoning Chi Feng who had been broken in two.

Wang Zheng is a person who knows how to live, so he didn't dislike it, and picked it up directly, especially the Chifeng sword, which is far longer than ordinary swords, even if it is a broken sword, let the craftsmen forge it a little, and it becomes a waist knife long dagger.

Presented to Huang Zhong in public today, even though everyone knows that the intention is to win over, but this kind of gift is also very precious.

Huang Zhong stared at the young man in front of him for a long time, then slowly lowered his head, hiding the uncontrollable shock in his eyes, then knelt down and kowtowed, and solemnly took the sword with both hands.

"Chen Huang Zhong, thank you lord for giving me the sword!"

Finally changed the name!
Wang Zheng was overjoyed, and immediately looked at the hanging mask, and immediately looked up to the sky and laughed.

At this time, on the hero interface of the system, a new line of light blue text is constantly flashing.
