Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 208

Liu Yu's trip to the southeast was quite fruitful. Not only did he persuade Zhu Jun to send out suspicious soldiers, but he also won the loyalty of two generals, Chen Dao and Liao Hua.

The newly reorganized Baibo Camp in Xin'an County has more than 2 people, but the personnel are uneven. The original commander Han Siam has limited ability and is only expected to be a lieutenant.

Now that Chen Dao, who is in command of 87, is appointed as the orthodox leader, and Liao Hua is assisted, Liu Yu can finally rest assured.

After Chen Dao bowed respectfully to the lord and thanked him, he walked up to Xun Yu to thank him for his kindness of introduction.

After all, in Chen Dao's opinion, if he hadn't met Xun Yu, he would not have been able to successfully rescue that hero, Ranger, let alone worship under Liu Yu.

At this time, Xun Yu was also full of emotions. He had already seen Liu Yu's love and respect for Chen Dao, and thought that he had finally done something for Liu Yu.

Now that the affairs here are over, Xun Yu proposed to leave for Luoyang as soon as dawn.

But just when Liu Yu and the others were about to leave, the ranger dragged his injured leg and followed Chen Dao's appearance and knelt down in front of Liu Yu.

"What? Do you want to serve me too?"

"I really have this intention, and I hope King Zhongshan will make it happen!"

Liu Yu looked at the ranger curiously again, and then asked Chen Dao beside him, "Do you know this person's name and where does he live?"

Liu Yu is not good at recruiting anyone, especially those who were born as rangers, so they must first find out his innocence.

But Chen Dao shook his head when he heard the words, and replied that he didn't know the name of the other party. He also said that he was afraid of causing trouble to his family after he was arrested and imprisoned, so he never revealed his name even after being tortured.

After hearing this, Liu Yu said approvingly: "It's righteousness to not be afraid of evil forces, and it's righteousness to be happy, and it's filial piety to get into trouble and not to hurt the family and elders! I didn't expect that you, a knight-errant, are really a tough man!"

"Thank you for the praise from Zhongshan people. My surname is Xu Mingfu, and my character is Yuanzhi. I live in Changsha, Yingchuan, and I am innocent. I would like to worship the king of Zhongshan as my lord, and follow me from now on!"

The ranger bowed after he finished speaking, but Liu Yu was shocked when he heard it, "The surname is Xu Mingfu and the character is Yuanzhi, why does it sound so familiar? Damn... it can't be that person."

In the history of the late Han Dynasty that Liu Yu knew, there was an extremely powerful and mysterious person, and this person was Xu Shu.

And Xu Shu's original name was Xu Fu!
"Ding, Xu Fu, strength is 75, leadership is 85, resourcefulness is 94, mind is 86, and friendship is 100."

Seeing the attribute values ​​given by the system, Liu Yu knew that the ranger in front of him was Xu Yuanzhi who recommended Zhuge on a horse.

This unexpected harvest made Liu Yu laugh happily. Originally, he only vaguely remembered that Chen Dao had worked as an official in Liang County, but he didn't expect to save Xu Shu by accident here.

No wonder Liu Yu felt so familiar when he heard Xun Yu's story about You Xiaer's murder in the street. It turned out to be exactly the same story as Xu Shu's murder and imprisonment to save his friends.

However, according to later records, it was a group of friends who rescued Xu Shu, and Chen Dao's name was not mentioned in it.

"Yuan Zhizhen is a temperamental person, I like it very much, follow me from now on... But the name Xu Fu can no longer be used, after all, the notice of wanting you has been sent to the nearby counties, and you will be found soon Why don't you change your real name!"

Liu Yu still felt that Xu Fu's name was awkward, so he thought of changing him to a name that would be familiar to future generations.

As for Xu Fu being a knight-errant, he must have been extremely excited to be appreciated and valued by the prince of the Han Dynasty, and he nodded gratefully on the spot.

"Thank you, my lord, for taking me in. I know that murder is against the law. It is inappropriate to use the name Xu Fu again, so I have already planned to change my name to Shan Fu!"

Liu Yu shook his head when he heard the words, expressing his dissatisfaction with the name Shan Fu, and said: "The name can be changed, but the surname can't be changed rashly, why not... let's call it Xu Shu!"

As soon as Xu Shu heard the name, he felt indescribable, as if he was about to think of the name, but Liu Yu said it first.

Could it be that I thought of getting together with my lord Liu Yu?

"Thank you, my lord, for giving me the name. I will be called Xu Shu from now on! I have another unfeeling request, and I hope my lord will allow me to go back to my hometown first..."

Liu Yu knew that Xu Shu was famous for his filial piety, so he asked for leave to go home to settle down his mother.

In history, Cao Cao kidnapped Xu Shu's mother, and then tricked Xu Shu to Xuchang.

Liu Yu didn't want to lose Xu Shu's allegiance because of this, so he suggested: "I still have a small courtyard in the alley in the south of the city, why don't Yuan Zhi take my mother to live there, so I can take care of her nearby, what do you think? "

Of course Xu Shu didn't have any objections. He was valued just after joining Liu Yu's command. He was given a name and a house. Even his old mother was arranged to live in Luoyang. How could he not be grateful.

"Ding, congratulations on successfully recruiting the host!"

"Ding, Xu Shu's loyalty has reached 100."

……

In this way, accompanied by Chen Dao, Xu Shu first went to the hometown of Yingchuan County Changsha to pick up his old mother, while Liu Yu led Xun Yu and Liao Hua to continue northward to Luoyang.

Walking on the road, Xun Yu asked Liu Yu curiously why he knew that Chen Dao was a useful general, and he seemed to treat Xu Shu more than Chen Dao. He was just a knight-errant, so could he have any special skills? ?

Liu Yu definitely couldn't say that he would be a "prophet", so he said that he knew Chen Dao because he was recommended by others.

As for Xu Shu's matter, Liu Yu smiled mysteriously.

"Wen Ruoke, do you still remember the Master Kang I mentioned to you?"

"That's natural! Master Kong is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and his ability to invent and create is unparalleled. The improvement of the blank paper alone can surpass Cai Hou by a thousand times!"

When he was in Xin'an County, Xun Yu had a great admiration for Master Kong since he saw white paper and pencils.

At that time, Xun Yu felt sorry for "his old man" who left earlier, and thought that if Master Kong could be born in a peaceful and prosperous age, his invention would surely bring infinite wealth to the great man.

Fortunately, Liu Yu, King of Zhongshan, can be regarded as the inheritance of "his old man". Xun Yu believes that when the Central Plains is settled, Liu Yu will vigorously promote those inventions to benefit the people!
It's just that what Xun Yu was puzzled at this time was, what kind of connection does the ranger Xu Shu have with Master Kang?

Hearing Xun Yu's question, Liu Yu smiled mysteriously again.

"Xu Shu doesn't know Master Kang, but Xu Shu's ancestors... have some relationship with Master Kang!"

"Oh, that's how it is! The Xu family in Yingchuan Changsha has always been passed down in the same line!" Hearing this, Xun Yu thought that Liu Yu took in Xu Shu because he thought of Master Kang's kindness, and Xun Yu was originally from the Yingchuan family. Some old local households have also heard about it, so they are no longer wondering.

However, the ancestors of the Xu family mentioned by Liu Yu did not refer to the Xu family of the head office, and this also involved a secret about Xu Shu's life experience, but seeing that Xun Yu had no doubts, Liu Yu did not explain further.
