The general is wise and mighty

An Sheng waited at the gate of the camp, while Xiang Yu went to lead the horse.

An Sheng drew a big hat by himself, and sent his sophomore year to find someone in the city to make it. Now he wears it on his head, which is windproof and warm, but it is a bit hot.The trees in the distance were blown out in an arc by the wind, and the leaves were rustling.

"May I ask my little brother to inform you on your behalf?"

The voice was quite nice, An Sheng, who was poisoned by Xiao He, thought so, and turned his face to look at the person.The little brother is also quite handsome, but there is a black mark on his left cheek, which looks a little scary.

"Dare to ask the name of a strong man?" An Sheng thought of the way they talked in Water Margin.

"Don't dare to be called a strong man, I'm going down to Yingbo, come and join the general." Yingbo is polite, and An Sheng's first impression of him is quite good.Coupled with the fact that Yingbo has thousands of people behind him, his ability will not be too vulgar.

An Sheng looked inside the camp on tiptoe, saw a soldier carrying a gun, called him over, and asked his name.

"Back to the little military division, I'm going to Han Xin." Qi Yu was imposing, and his appearance was not inferior to that of Ying Bu who had removed the black mark on his face.

An Sheng was surprised, isn't Han Xin from Liu Bang's camp? Why is he here now?

"You, take this General Yingbo to Xiang Liang, and then you go to Zhang Liang and tell you that I let you go." An Sheng decided to keep him first, and then let Xiang Ji reuse him to avoid brain drain.

Han Xin nodded, thinking that he should just ask Zhang Liang to do something, and led Yingbu away.

Soon, Xiang Yu came to An Sheng's side in a very cool manner, riding a black horse with Tao Hua beside him.An Sheng got on his horse and began to chant to Xiang Ji: "Let me tell you, I just saw a soldier named Han Xin. Han Xin, Liu Bang's fierce general, you fell into his hands, you know..."

"The general is brilliant and mighty, how could he fall into the hands of a small soldier?!" Xiang Ji was not happy.

"Didn't you hear me say that he went to find Liu Bang? So - now he's here with you, make good use of it!" An Sheng remembered the story of Han Xin's humiliation, and decided not to tell Xiang Ji, probably after he said it. It will make Xiang Yu look down on him, "I asked him to go to Zhang Liang, and you can go with me when you come back."

Xiang Ji nodded in agreement, not taking Han Xin to heart.

Xiang Ji tied the horse outside the city gate, and Wu Zai and Tao Hua immediately got close to each other, rubbing each other's ears and temples, and there was no scene of running and chasing each other when they first met.

The two walked slowly in the street. Xue County is quite big and has a lot of things, but they still only eat biscuits and meat. Seeing this, An Sheng felt nauseous, and he dragged Xiang Yu away.

An Sheng was thinking about whether to buy some things for those generals who later defected to Liu Bang, but they were too expensive to afford, and too cheap to be worthless, so he wandered aimlessly on the street to see if he could touch them. to something.

Turning to a street, there were firewood sellers sitting on both sides of the street. An Sheng suddenly smelled a strange fragrance, walked along the smell, and saw a pile of black things.

The villager who cut the firewood saw someone coming, and quickly stood up: "Do you want firewood?"

An Sheng shook his head, pointing at the pile of black, unidentified objects emitting a scent: "What is this?"

"Oh, this one, the rotten wood I saw in the water was quite fragrant, so I picked some up to see if anyone wanted it." The villager replied honestly.

An Sheng pondered: Rotten wood—rotten wood, is this agarwood?Immediately called Xiang Ji: "Go get a bucket of water."

Xiang Yu didn't know, so he did as he did. He asked a nearby shop to borrow a bucket, and took a bucket of water and put it on the ground.

An Sheng rolled up his sleeves, picked up a piece of wood, carefully so as not to fall apart, then put it in the water, rubbed off the outer layer of rotten bark, and then let go.Sure enough, the wood wobbled and sank to the bottom of the barrel, completely sinking.

An Sheng was overjoyed, he had found a treasure.

Xiang Ji was puzzled: "How could the wood sink to the bottom?"

"That's why it's called Chenxiang." An Sheng fished out the wood and asked the villager, "I want it all, how much is it?"

The villager didn't know what the city people wanted a pile of rotten wood for, but he still counted with his fingers and gestured earnestly: "Three copper coins."

An Sheng immediately took out the money: "Here you are."

The villager accepted the money: "Then do you want more, I haven't finished it yet."

"Yes." An Sheng nodded, and directed Xiang Yu to pick up the things, "I want as much as I have, and I will give you an extra copper coin."

"Okay, okay." The villager grinned happily from ear to ear, and a pile of broken wood was sold for half a bundle of firewood. "I, I'll go find it now." Then he entrusted his stall to the people next to him, He ran away in a flash.

Xiang Ji was puzzled: "Why buy a pile of broken wood?"

"That's what you call ignorance. Agarwood is a good thing." An Sheng taught Xiang Ji, "Collecting the aura of heaven and earth, collecting the essence of the sun and the moon, and absorbing the accumulation of time, it is two hundred times more expensive than gold."

Xiang Ji didn't quite believe it, since it was obviously bought for three copper coins.

"It can also benefit essence and strengthen yang, invigorate the kidney and clear the mind." An Sheng added.

Xiang Ji nodded: "Well, it's a good thing."

The two waited for an hour, and finally saw the villager return, holding the same rotten wood in his hand, wrapping it up and handing it to An Sheng.An Sheng counted five copper coins to him with satisfaction, and gave him another one, both sides were happy.

Unexpectedly, within a day, Xue County spread the word that the small military divisions of the Chu Army liked rotten wood with a scent. For a while, the nearby mountains and waters were overcrowded, but they couldn't find it.It was also rumored that General Xiaoxiang of the Chu Army was very sure of the effect of rotten wood for improving energy and strengthening yang. Within three days, the news spread throughout the surrounding areas of Xue County, and the price of agarwood was driven up to unprecedented heights.

After buying something, An Sheng urged Xiang Ji to go back. He really wanted to see Han Xin as soon as possible and have a good talk with him.

Over there, Han Xin found Zhang Liang after delivering Yingbu, and said that An Sheng asked him to go, and asked him if there was anything he needed to do.Zhang Liang wondered, nothing happened, which song An Sheng sang?Although I don't know why, I still keep him first. After all, for Zhang Liang, his brother An's orders are more effective than military orders.

When An Sheng arrived, Zhang Liang had already invited Han Xin to drink tea, and he couldn't drink any more. Seeing An Sheng heaved a sigh of relief, he quickly stepped aside.

Han Xin was also at a loss, thinking that he was called to come over to order something, but he just sat here drinking tea, and when they looked at each other, he giggled and had nothing to say.

An Sheng didn't give in, and sat directly in Zhang Liang's seat, and ran over from the gate of the camp just for Han Xin, and he worked really hard.

After An Sheng had recovered his breath, he began to have a long talk with Han Xin, first asking him what his impression of Liu Bang was.

Han Xin shook his head: "Although I haven't met him before, I've heard from my brothers in the army that he is a villain who kills people without blinking an eye and eats people without spit out bones. I personally feel contemptuous of him."

An Sheng was satisfied—the Chu Jun brothers were really awesome.

"Then are you willing to fight with him?"

Han Xin was shocked and knelt down on one knee: "Although Han Xin is just a small soldier, he is confident that he has the talent of a general. Please don't push me into the fire pit."

An Sheng was already smiling happily: "An Sheng just said, General Han, don't take it seriously."

Han Xin breathed a sigh of relief: "Han Xin is just a small soldier, how can he deserve the title of general from a small military division?"

An Sheng asked him to sit down: "The general has already discovered General Han's talent, but he was busy with business, so An Sheng was able to meet today. Please, General Han, don't be offended."

Han Xin quickly waved his hand: "No, no."

"That's good." An Sheng saw the shadow of Xiang Ji outside the door and knew that someone was coming, "The general will promote General Han verbally today, and in a few days he will be in front of the whole army with several other generals." Announce."

Hearing this, Xiang Ji knew that it was time for him to appear, so he boldly opened the curtain and strode up to Han Xin. Han Xin hurriedly knelt down: "Han Xin has seen the general."

An Sheng winked at Xiang Yu, and Xiang Yu stretched out his hand to help him up: "Don't kneel, if you are talented, we will be equal."

"Han Xin dare not."

"Why don't you dare?! Mother-in-law, be careful with me, the general..." Seeing An Sheng's cold face, Xiang Ji quickly used the Huatou to turn around cleverly, "General, I will make you a general under my command, and I will go out with the general soon. "

Han Xin was overjoyed and knelt down to thank: "Thank you, General, for meeting you."

An Sheng asked him to kneel this time, which was as it should be. After kneeling for half a minute, he pinched Xiang Ji, and Xiang Ji called him up again: "Pingshen."

An Sheng felt that it was better for Xiang Ji to understand Han Xin's power, so he suggested: "Chicken, why don't you two go to the training ground and practice a few times, so you don't lose."

Xiang Ji was successfully provoked into the militant cells in his bones, and he immediately responded: "The general will not lose! Han Xin, right, fight with the general."

Han Xin was not afraid: "Okay, Han Xin has no regrets to learn martial arts with the general." After speaking, he went out with strength.

An Sheng laughed, and asked Zhang Liang to go out to spread the news that Xiang Ji was going to fight with someone, so that everyone could watch, secretly hoping that Han Xin would not embarrass him.

After cleaning the pile of "rotten wood", An Sheng was looking at them in a daze and thinking about what to do. His own handwork can only draw pictures and cut paper. Carving wood is really beyond the scope of his ability.

Xiang Ji barged in, steaming all over his body, his collar was ripped open, and sat across from An Sheng: "That Han Xin is so kind to the general, that he fought me for so long."

An Sheng glanced at him: "Stop looking down on him."

"The general cherishes talents like gold, how can he look down on people." Xiang Ji refused to admit it, "What are you doing with rotten wood? Don't say it, it's quite fragrant."

An Sheng smiled: "Can you carve wood?"

"Isn't it just a piece of wood? The general is ready to grab it." Xiang Yu picked up a piece, took a knife from his waist, and cut a piece that was five centimeters thick and ten centimeters wide and ten centimeters long. It's done!"

An Sheng took a look and frowned: "Chicken?" It was still a relief, but the general outline could be seen.

"There's also the sun. Look, the rooster crows, the sun rises, and the general is a bright light. What a meaning!" Xiang Ji exclaimed.

The corner of An Sheng's mouth twitched, and he threw all the wood to Xiang Ji: "There are so many, twenty here first."

Xiang Ji was addicted to engraving, a small knife, and worked hard until night, finally completed the task, threw the knife away, and lay down on the back: "An Sheng, come and rub the general's waist."

An Sheng counted the engraved wooden signs, processed them with a knife behind his back, and then smiled. Anyway, he should be able to talk about this worthless wooden sign in everyone's eyes, so he stepped forward Go rub Xiang Ji's waist after struggling all afternoon.

Xiang Ji was lying on the bed, hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey "

Xiang Ji's body was full of muscles, which were hard and strenuous. An Sheng rubbed his arms for a while and then slapped his buttocks with the most flesh: "Get out, let your wife rub it for you!"

Xiang Yu covered his buttocks with a serious face: "The general's buttocks can't be patted."

"That's a tiger!" An Sheng said angrily, packed up the wooden sign, and prepared to give gifts, "Hurry up!"

"Get out, get out, the general has plenty of people to entertain!" Xiang Ji got up and dressed, secretly hid a large piece of wood, and quickly put it in his arms, pretending that nothing happened, with his hands behind his back, he strode forward went out.

An Sheng didn't mention him when he saw it, just to please his wife.

An Sheng went to Zhang Liang first, the two lived closest.

Zhang Liang was surprised when he saw the wooden sign: "Is this Chenxiang?"

"You know him?" An Sheng was even more surprised, no one knew what it was, they all said it was rotten wood.

"I only found out in the afternoon, and now it's a tael of gold for one tael."

"Really?" An Sheng muttered, no one cared about it when he went to buy it in the morning, could it be that he started the buying frenzy?

"Really, there are still many people in the camp who went to the mountain to search, but they couldn't find it." Zhang Liang put it under his nose and smelled it. It was really fragrant, and he liked it.

"This is given to you by the general, and the front is engraved by the general." An Sheng turned over the plaque in Zhang Liang's hand for him to see, "I carved the words."

"Dare to ask Brother An—what's the word for this?" Zhang Liang boasted that he had read a lot, but he definitely didn't know square characters.

"This is your name——Zhang Liang, the word of my hometown, it should be simpler." An Sheng scratched his neck, feeling that he needed to take a hot bath.

"So that's it. This is the kind of writing that only Brother An and the general know. It's really much simpler." Zhang Liang nodded sincerely, "I'll ask for a good rope tomorrow to tie it around my waist. Thank you, General. The military division is kind."

An Sheng nodded. With the gossip from Zhang Liang, An Sheng became more confident. He went directly to Fan Zeng's tent and gave away the piece with his name engraved on it. five finger prints.

In one night, half of the 20 yuan wooden sign carved by Xiang Ji was given away. Let alone Xiang Zhuanglong's absence, even Ying Bu, who just met today, was given away by An Sheng on the grounds that he was pleasing to the eye together.

It was cold outside, and An Sheng shuttled between the tents. Seeing everyone's surprised and grateful eyes, An Sheng felt that he was the Santa Claus who came to send warmth on Christmas Eve—except for the wrong season.

In Yu Ji’s tent——

"Is the general going to rest?" Yu Ji almost untied the belt of her underwear, lay down under the blanket and called Xiang Ji.

"No, you go to bed first." Xiang Yu was holding the piece of wood brought in from An Sheng, and was thinking about where to cut the knife.

"The Douguang lighted by the general is too bright, and I can't sleep." Yu Ji acted like a baby. In fact, the Douguang was blocked by Xiang Ji's burly figure, so there was no brightness at all.

"Then I'll go back." Xiang Yu got up, put the wood away, and lifted the curtain to go back to his tent.

Yu Ji didn't expect this to be the result, angrily she couldn't find a better excuse, and gritted her silver teeth.
