It was said that Sun Qian failed to convince Tai Shici and Sun Shao, so he said goodbye to them and went to Guangling City.
Taishi Ci and Sun Shao spared Sun Ce and led their troops to return to Qu'a.
Sun Ce's army went to Dantu, and sure enough they met Jian Yong leading dozens of ships waiting by the river.
When everyone got closer, they discovered that these ships were actually the warships used by everyone to attack Liu Bei's army last night.
Sun Ce laughed at himself: "Everyone is back, the people are back, and the boats are back!"
Only Zhou Yu admired Zhao Chen in his heart, as if since last night, Zhao Chen knew every move they made and could arrange everything in place before them. How could they beat Zhao Chen like this?
Zhou Yu unconsciously looked back at Guangling City, sighing in his heart that with Liu Bei and Zhao Chen here, Sun Ce's army didn't know when they would be able to enter Guangling City again.
It was already past noon when Zhao Chen woke up, and he wanted to go and see the situation of the army and Guangling City.
As soon as I left the county government gate, I saw two familiar figures standing quietly aside, heads held high, and looking into the county government gate from time to time.
It turned out to be Liu Bei and Guan Yu.
Zhao Chen stepped forward and saluted Liu Bei.
Liu Bei hurriedly helped him up: "You don't need to be polite to be virtuous."
Then he glanced at his second brother Guan Yu.
Guan Yu took two steps forward with a guilty look on his face.
"I have met with the military advisor. Guan wants to ask the military advisor about something. I wonder if the military advisor is available."
Zhao Chen was very curious and asked: "My lord and General Guan have been waiting here?"
Guan Yu replied shyly: "My eldest brother has an order. No one is allowed to disturb the military advisor when he is resting."
This is good. Previously, drunk Liu Bei ordered Zhang Fei to wait outside the camp, but now Liu Bei and Guan Yu were ordered to wait.
This scene is so similar. When Liu Xuande paid three visits to the thatched cottage, wasn't he standing under the eaves waiting for Zhuge Liang to wake up? Today, Zhao Chen actually experienced the feeling of being waited for.
It has to be said that Liu Bei has taken care of Zhao Chen meticulously, and I am afraid that this is the same for his wife.
Thinking of his wife, Zhao Chen thought of the Bu Lianshi and Wan family in Huaiyin. It had been almost ten days since he left home, and he had not written a letter to them. He always felt sorry.
In this era, there are no mobile phones or WeChat. A letter contains not only your current situation, but also the longing for your family.
What's more, judging from the current situation, the army will stay in Guangling City for a while, and will not go north until Guangling County is reorganized. Naturally, it will be necessary to bring family members over to live with them.
Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th. Zhao Chen, who came to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, was alone. Bu Lianshi and Wanshi were the only people who took care of his daily life and were concerned about his safety outside. How could they not be reunited.
After hearing Guan Yu's answer, Zhao Chen smiled slightly and understood.
Guan Yu's arrogance is well known to everyone.
There are only two people in the world that Guan Yu admires. One is of course his eldest brother Liu Bei, and the other is Lu Bu who he admires from a military perspective. In Guan Yu's eyes, the others are either common people or betrayers. In short, they are all looked down upon.
When facing the generals of Jiangdong Sun Ce and Sun Quan, they were always Jiangdong children or Jiangdong rats and would never look at them.
Even some generals in his own camp were scolded by Guan Yu. For example, Changsha's veteran Huang Zhong was called a pawn by him, and he did not regard him as a general at all.
Now I can actually stand at the gate of the county government office and wait for Zhao Chen quietly for several hours. If I don't surrender to Zhao Chen, what else can I do?
Zhao Chen pretended not to know, blinked and asked Guan Yu: "I wonder what General Guan is asking about?"
Guan Yu glanced at Zhao Chen, as if he could see his own embarrassment in Zhao Chen's eyes. He didn't know how to say what he wanted to say in his heart, and his red face turned even darker.
Zhao Chen and Liu Bei smiled at each other and waited quietly, just like Guan Yu was waiting for him just now.
Things that are abrasive can only be effective if Guan Yu has experienced them himself. Anyone urging him will only make Guan Yu feel disgusted.
After a long time, Guan Yu took a breath, and the hesitation in his eyes disappeared, and he said: "Military advisor, ever since Guan left Hedong to venture into this troubled world, the only one he truly admires is eldest brother X, and the other princes have not looked down upon him."
Zhao Chen said in his heart, do you even need to say this? !
"Brother is right. Since we started the army, we have won more than we lost. What we lack is a wise man who can plan thousands of miles. In more than a month, the military advisor has won three battles and three, all because of his clever plan. Guan really admires him. "
Zhao Chen naturally responded: "General Guan, thank you."
Liu Bei faced Guan Yu who was hesitating and urged: "Second brother, if you have anything to say in front of the military advisor, just say it directly."
Guan Yu agreed.
"Military advisor, Guan apologizes deeply for being disrespectful to the military advisor before. I admire the military advisor for his genius and foresight."
"In the battle of Guangling City, I said some rude words. I hope the military advisor will not be blamed. I signed a military order with the military advisor. I lost. The military advisor not only saved Guan, but also made Guan realize what it means to win a thousand miles." Other than that. From now on, the military advisor can just call Guan Yun Zhang. Guan must obey the military advisor’s orders and obey the military advisor’s arrangements!”
Liu Bei looked at Guan Yu with satisfaction. This second brother was finally convinced by Zhao Chen.
In the same camp, Zhao Chen relied on the formation of troops, and Guan Yu relied on the charge. One was the head of the civil servants, and the other was the head of the generals. The disagreement between the two was extremely detrimental to future development.
Guan Yu bowed his head today, which can be regarded as an end to this matter.
He looked at Zhao Chen with a smile, waiting for Zhao Chen's response, and seemed to be completely sure that Zhao Chen would be satisfied.
Zhao Chen naturally understood what Liu Bei was thinking, and took Guan Yu to wait at the door. Firstly, it gave him enough face, and secondly, the military order matter must be handled in the military camp in accordance with military law. If it can be solved here, Liu Bei can handle it in the military camp. Directly announcing the results fully saved Guan Yu's face, which was indeed a killing two birds with one stone.
But Guan Yu's surrender is only one of Zhao Chen's desires, and the other is more important.
He asked: "Chen Duo thanks General Guan for agreeing, but General Guan needs to apologize for more than that."
Liu Bei and Guan Yu were both confused.
From Zhao Chen's title, the two understood that Zhao Chen probably expected more than just Guan Yu's apology, there were more important things that Guan Yu needed to do.
But Guan Yu didn't understand.
Liu Bei thought for a long time, but still didn't know, so he had to ask Zhao Chen tentatively: "I don't know what the military advisor is referring to, but I will definitely do it if Yun Chang can do it!"
Zhao Chen replied with a serious face: "Could it be that my lord has forgotten General Guan's future path?"
Zhao Chen's solemnity made Liu Bei's expression change slightly, and he kept thinking about what Zhao Chen said to him.
Suddenly he understood.
"Military advisor, I understand."
Zhao Chen nodded in response: "My lord, with General Guan's righteousness and status in the army, he will definitely be the head coach of a party in the future. The most important thing for a coach is not only the ability to lead the entire army, but also a stable mood and a cautious attitude. The former, Guan The general is ready, but the latter still needs to be tempered.”
When Guan Yu heard this, his eyes slowly became cloudy and he disappeared.
Zhao Chen continued: "As a general, it is understandable to be arrogant, but as a coach, you must not rely on your talents and arrogance. You must pay attention to any party, even a very weak opponent, because they can inadvertently cause fatal damage to the army."
After saying this, Guan Yu's eyes gradually became firm.
"General Guan, Chen doesn't care about your attitude towards Chen. You and I are under the lord's tent and we can work together for the lord. But if we can change our arrogant character and treat people and things calmly, in the future, the lord can Can you safely hand over the strategic location to you?"
Zhao Chen's words were like a sharp sword, piercing Guan Yu's heart at once.
Guan Yu never thought that Zhao Chen would think so highly of him and actually want to train him as a coach.
This kind of kindness cannot be exchanged for anything.
If Guan Yu had surrendered because of Zhao Chen's superb strategy before, it was only superficial surrender, but now that he is admired by Zhao Chen from the bottom of his heart, this is true surrender.
Guan Yu said firmly with excitement:
"Ask the military advisor to teach me, I will definitely be able to do it!"
Zhao Chen glanced at Guan Yu's eyes full of perseverance and courage, and smiled knowingly.
He knew that from this moment on, he had truly conquered Guan Yu.
"Yun Chang..."
Zhao Chen also changed his name for Guan Yu.
"exist!"
"I have made a covenant for you. From today on, you must abide by it at all times."
"Please make it clear, military advisor."
"Two points, one, think more about things, don't act out of emotion, and don't be proud of your opponents. Second, read "Sun Tzu's Art of War" every day. I will annotate the art of war. You should study the annotations in depth. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. .”
"Follow the military advisor's instructions!"
Zhao Chen nodded with satisfaction. The things he did before, including the establishment of the military order, were all to make Guan Yu feel at ease. Now that Guan Yu is convinced, his goal has been achieved, and Guan Yu's training has also begun simultaneously. If he had time, he might be able to stay in Guangling and resist Sun Ce and Yuan Shu.
Liu Bei is naturally the happiest. The combination of Zhao Chen and Guan Yu will be the most powerful combination under his account in the future.
When Zhao Chen handed the annotated "The Art of War" to Guan Yu, Guan Yu's eyes turned red with emotion.
In this era, books are inherently precious. Generally, scholars need to borrow books from everywhere if they want to read, not to mention this is a book full of Zhao Chen's wisdom.
Zhao Chen has indicated his understanding of every paragraph, sentence, and word in the book, which can be said to have condensed two thousand years of wisdom.
How could Guan Yu not be moved? !
He almost knelt down to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen has another little fanboy.
