Cao Mao held a grand banquet in the east hall of Taiji Hall to entertain these three people who came from afar.
Cao Mao first talked about his admiration and respect for General Zhendong.
Then came the appointment of Wuqiudian.
"I worshiped Guanqiudian as the censor Zhongcheng, in charge of the censorship platform, and supervised all officials."
Guanqiudian took the order.
Cao Mao began to praise Wenqin, the governor of Yangzhou.
Cao Mao took Wen Yang's hand and said seriously: "I have heard of A Yang's name a long time ago and said that no one can match your martial arts skills."
Cheng Ji, who was standing aside, snorted with some disdain.
Wen Yang glanced at him and narrowed his eyes.
Cao Mao pretended not to see it and asked, "I wonder if Ah Yang knows the swordsmanship?"
"Know."
"Then can you dance the sword for me? I have been fond of martial arts since I was a child. In the past, I could only listen to others talk about A-yang's martial arts. Today, I want to open my eyes!"
Wen Yang raised his head, and the emperor's words were very helpful to him.
His personality is slightly similar to Zhong Hui, but after all, he is just a teenager, so it is normal to have such a personality.
He pointed at Cheng Ji beside him and said: "Your Majesty, this sword dance alone is really not good-looking. I think this warrior under your command is so majestic, why not let him practice with me!"
Cheng Ji had some disdain on his face.
He has seen too many dandies like Wenyang.
He comes from a high family and thinks he is extraordinary and dominates the local area. He doesn't know how much weight he has. Your Majesty, because of his father's face, he flattered him a few times and actually took it seriously?
Cao Mao looked at Cheng Ji.
Cao Mao now has many ministers in his hands, but few of them may be completely relieved.
Strictly speaking, Cheng Ji is also a factor that makes Cao Mao uneasy. In order to win over this person, Cao Mao praised him a lot.
This made Cheng Ji feel a little light-headed. After that, big families contacted him one after another, making him even more confident.
After it became a big deal, Cheng Ji kept asking all day long, wanting to know when he could go to Yongliang to serve as a general, to defeat Jiang Wei and achieve great success.
Cao Mao always smiled and persuaded him to wait a little longer.
Just now, Cao Mao deliberately praised Wen Yang to his face, just to use Wen Yang to wake up Cheng Ji. Only with an overwhelming failure can he see his own strength clearly, and he will get rid of his original light and airy appearance and truly become a real person. fell to the ground.
Cao Mao looked at Cheng Ji, "Chengjun, what do you think?"
Cheng Ji said: "Your Majesty, Wenjun is still young, so it is best not to do anything, lest you hurt him and make it difficult to explain."
His tone was very arrogant, and it was clear that he looked down on Wenyang.
Cheng Ji thought the same thing. Although he didn't take this guy seriously, his father was the governor of Yangzhou after all. If he defeated him, he wouldn't be able to explain to his father, so he might as well forget it.
But for Wen Yang, this is a naked humiliation.
His face suddenly turned red, and he asked with a smile: "Why, Chengjun doesn't dare?"
Cheng Ji was immediately angry, you little brat, Nai Gong wanted to let you go, but are you so eager to beat him up?
He looked at the emperor beside him and said, "Your Majesty, let us practice our skills."
Cao Mao hesitated and ordered: "Just use a wooden stick, don't hurt the harmony."
Cheng Ji laughed ferociously, "Your Majesty, don't worry, I won't hurt him."
Many of the ministers present were also watching this scene. Wu Qiudian looked calm and did not even glance at Cheng Ji. Liu Lu couldn't help but snicker.
Seeing their expressions, the ministers also had some guesses. It seemed that this person was good at martial arts.
The two just stood in the middle of the group of ministers, looking at each other.
Looking at Wen Yang who was taller than him, Cheng Ji didn't care. He held a short stick and laughed, "Let me show you the real swordsmanship."
Wen Yang looked at him calmly.
Cheng Ji let out a loud roar and rushed forward.
"Bang!"
He saw Wen Yang strike out with a stick, and the stick made a sound of breaking through the air. Cheng Ji's eyes changed from confusion to horror. When the wooden stick in his hand came into contact with the opponent's wooden stick, there was no obstacle. Wen Yang The wooden stick in Yang's hand pressed directly against Chengji's wooden stick and hit him on the forehead.
Chengji suddenly fell to the ground, motionless.
Cao Mao's eyes widened, and several ministers almost jumped up.
Zhang Hua shouted: "Imperial Physician!! Hurry up and call for the Imperial Physician's order! 1"
The imperial doctor arrived here quickly, made a diagnosis, and determined that Cheng Ji's life was not in danger, and hurriedly took him away for treatment.
At this moment, the ministers stared at Wen Yang in fear.
Although Cheng Ji is very annoying, the ministers are still very aware of his martial arts. This guy is quite good at fighting, and almost none of the ministers can beat him.
But in front of this young man, he didn't survive even one round and was knocked unconscious with a stick.
What kind of monster is this? !
Wen Yang was a little embarrassed. He looked at Cao Mao and hurriedly saluted, "Your Majesty, I will not investigate for the moment."
"Ah, it's okay, sit down, sit down."
Cao Mao was also very shocked at this moment. As someone who has been training with Cheng Ji for many years, he knew Cheng Ji's ability very well. At this moment, when he saw Cheng Ji being knocked unconscious with a stick, he couldn't help but jump out of the corner of his eyes. He saw Wen Yang finally withdrew his strength, otherwise the stick would have smashed Chengji's head.
Wen Yang was even more embarrassed. The emperor was very kind to her, but she hurt his confidant. Isn't this a bit bad?
Cao Mao said seriously: "Injuries are common during sparring. When Chengjun wakes up, I will let you two have some wine together and make peace for you. Don't worry about it."
Wen Yang nodded.
Cao Mao sighed: "Originally, I wanted you to stay with me and be my Jia Fu."
"It's just that with your bravery, you can still bury Ayang!"
"I will make you the Tiger Cavalry Colonel!"
"Let you command the tiger and leopard cavalry, attack first in war, conquer the city first, and make achievements!"
Wenyang's eyes widened. Wuqiudian pushed him hard. Only then did Wenyang react and stood up in a hurry, "Wei!!"
The ministers looked at each other.
Emperor Wu had a very powerful army in the past, called the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. The cavalry of this army were all made up of hundreds of generals. They had extremely strong combat effectiveness and great military exploits. The initial leading general was actually the one who led the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. But in After Emperor Wen, this army was gradually divided among the other camps and disappeared over the years.
Cao Mao has now appointed Wenyang as the Tiger Cavalry Colonel, obviously to re-establish this powerful army.
"Use the elites you lead as the main ones, and then let the guard general select the elites from each battalion for you to form the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. There will be 3,000 men and horses at first, and more will be added later!"
Wen Yang was very excited at the moment.
He had imagined countless times that he would shine and make great achievements, but he never expected that this day would come so quickly.
As a Wei nationality, it is impossible not to know what the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is, let alone who can be the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
Zhang Hua saw that the emperor valued this person, so he cleared his throat and said, "Your Majesty, I think it is inappropriate."
"Oh? What's wrong?"
"Since Emperor Wu, the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry has always been from the clan."
"Although Wenjun is brave, he is not from the clan. How can he hold such an important position?"
Zhang Hua spoke.
Wen Yang clenched his fists. He really wanted to be the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. If he could lead such an elite force and attack first in every battle in the future, would he still be worried that he would not have the chance to make meritorious deeds?
Cao Mao frowned, "Wenjun and his son are loyal to me, so what if they are not members of the clan?"
Zhang Hua hesitated for a moment, looked at Wen Yang, and suddenly asked: "Wen Jun, have you ever been married?"
Wen Yang shook his head in confusion.
Zhang Hua was overjoyed and said to Cao Mao: "Your Majesty, there is nothing you can do. Wen Jun still has no wife, why don't you find a girl from the clan to marry him? In this way, Wen Jun can command the tiger and leopard cavalry, and the courtiers will not dare to Any objections?"
Cao Mao suddenly realized.
“This is a good idea”
He looked at Wenyang, "Haha, then this matter is settled, Ayang, from now on we will be our own family!"
Wen Yang's face was full of confusion at this moment. He was just here to deliver a prisoner of war, so why did he become a clan member? ?
However, this is not important, he can command the tiger and leopard cavalry!
Thinking of this, Wen Yang became more and more excited.
Cao Mao didn't do this on the spur of the moment. He had long thought about letting Wen Yang form the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry in the future, but it was just a little earlier now.
Today's Wen Yang is not yet the fierce general who can command an army of 100,000 people in the future. He now only relies on his own bravery to fight some small battles and cannot command an army. Of course, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is the most suitable for him. Let him sharpen it first. A few years, and then slowly increase the number of tiger and leopard riders.
In the future, he and Malone will become his two most powerful generals.
Speaking of which, the Western Jin Dynasty actually had a lot of strong generals, but their fate was too miserable.
Wen Yang was framed and died.
After Ma Long defeated a powerful enemy, he was also framed, saying that he was old and fatuous, so Sima Yan deposed him. As a result, the Hu people rose up again to cause trouble, and the temple appointed Ma Long again, leaving him to die in the frontier. Because of his origin, he was not even chased. No closure!
There is also Zhou Chu, the legendary figure who eliminated the three evils. His life in the Western Jin Dynasty was also very miserable. He was hated by the clan because of his integrity, and was later forced to lead 5,000 men to attack an army of 70,000 thieves. , not even giving his soldiers enough food and supplies, but forcing them to die.
Zhou Chu fought from morning to night, killing more than ten thousand enemies. He even ran out of arrows and no one came to help him. Zhou Chu fought until he was exhausted and was killed by the bandits.
It was also difficult for the civil servants. Those who were talented, upright, and conscientious all died miserably.
Cao Mao looked at the high-spirited young man in front of him. This time, he would never let him waste his time without being reused.
Such a warrior should become the pillar of the Wei Dynasty. In the future, Ma Long will sit in the rear and let him go out to conquer the outside world. Let's see who can defeat him in the world! !
