Chapter 585: One list brings chaos to the world
In addition to being fond of debating, famous people's biggest hobby is to rank various lists for the heroes of the world, so they are loved by the world.
The celebrity list is not that easy to get on.
Everyone on the list has tens of thousands of people as their stepping stones and is a warrior who has experienced hundreds of battles.
And once you are on the celebrity list, even if you are at the bottom, you can still become famous all over the world and rise to great heights from then on.
Therefore, anyone with ambitions will strive to be on the list, and once they are on the list, they will continue to refresh their rankings until they reach the first place.
As the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts.
Therefore, every time a list of celebrities comes out, there will be a bloody storm, with all the heroes facing off on the same stage, which is so exciting.
The list of celebrities in the Spring and Autumn Period, the list of famous generals in the Warring States Period, the list of famous swordsmen in the early Qin Dynasty, the list of hundreds of flowers in the late Qin Dynasty, etc. are all made by famous people, and the lists of famous people are absolutely fair and impartial, otherwise how can they be recognized by most people.
But even so, every list of famous people is still very controversial. Therefore, each generation of famous people will only compile and publish one list, and at most there were only two in the pre-Qin period.
There is no other reason for doing this. Naturally, although compiling a list can gain reputation for celebrities, it is also an offending statement.
Among all the great heroes and geniuses from hundreds of schools of thought and from aristocratic families, whoever is not pretentious, unruly and rebellious will certainly not want to be ranked behind.
Therefore, once conflicts intensify, celebrities as list makers will naturally bear the brunt, so celebrities only publish one or two lists per generation.
The Dragon and Tiger Ranking is a special existence, because it is not a list, but a collection of major lists by famous artists, which gathers all the lists since the establishment of famous artists.
Celebrities can stir up turmoil in the world with just one list. Now that Xu Shao has released the Dragon and Tiger Chart, countless lists have come out at the same time, which shows what kind of bloody storm will be caused.

After leading the army back to Luoyang, Qin Hao did not stay too long and prepared to directly escort his mother and sister back to Nanyang. However, before returning, he met the hero Qiao Feng.
Li Cunxiao was young and energetic, and he almost killed Qiao Feng in a moment of recklessness, while Huang Zhong, who was older, naturally acted much more safely.
As Qin Hao expected, Qiao Feng refused to accept the thousand gold gift as a thank you. When Huang Zhong said that he wanted to help the people, Qiao Feng did not refuse. Instead, he wanted to use the thousand gold to buy food from Huang Zhong.
Nowadays, prices are soaring in every state and county. Although a thousand pieces of gold may seem like a lot on the surface, if Qiao Feng were to buy grain by himself, he didn't know how much he would be cheated by those unscrupulous grain merchants.
Huang Zhong couldn't make the decision on the grain purchase, and Qin Hao didn't return, so he had no choice but to report it to Jia Yu.
Jia Yu was very grateful for Qiao Feng's escort. In order to repay her kindness, she ordered all the Qin family's rice stores in Luoyang to be evacuated. She also begged some from the army and gave Qiao Feng a total of three thousand stones of grain and grass.
It was these three thousand stones of food and grass that allowed the Beggar Gang to develop into the largest gang in the north, and Qiao Feng later became known as 'Northern Qiao Feng'.
In order to express his gratitude, Qiao Feng insisted on seeing Qin Hao no matter what. When Qin Hao came back and learned about this, he naturally wanted to see him.
The first meeting between the two was very harmonious. During the conversation, Qin Hao saw that Qiao Feng had no interest in officialdom, so he resisted the urge to win over him.
"Brother Qiao, it's a great loss for a man like you that you, a hero like you, can't serve the imperial court." Qin Hao sighed.
Qiao Feng looked indifferent and said with a smile: "Qiao Feng is just a wild man in the mountains and cannot be called a hero. Besides, there are many heroes in the world. The General Li Cunxiao behind the Marquis is the real hero. Ten Qiao Feng is no match either."
Qin Hao glanced at Li Cunxiao behind him and said with a smile: "He is a reckless man."
Not only was Li Cunxiao not angry at all, but he showed his front teeth and grinned.
"Why are you giggling? Why don't you apologize to Brother Qiao?"
Qin Hao pretended to scold him harshly, but Li Cunxiao didn't even think about it and apologized directly.
"Brother Qiao, it was indeed Li who was reckless last time. Please don't remember the villain's fault."
After learning that Qiao Feng was a reckless person but saved nearly ten thousand people by himself, Li Cunxiao admired him greatly, so he would take the initiative to apologize even if Qin Hao didn't say anything.
"What the hell, it's just a misunderstanding, Qiao Feng has long forgotten it."
Qiao Feng held Li Cunxiao's hand. The two looked at each other and laughed, and all misunderstandings disappeared.
Seeing this, Qin Hao nodded and said with a smile: "Well, it's a good attitude to admit your mistake. You can take the lead in selecting those three thousand Xiliang war horses after you return to form the Flying Tiger Army."
Li Cunxiao was overjoyed and said quickly: "Thank you, Lord."
Although the Jin army has no shortage of war horses, there are still differences between horses.
Liangzhou, Youzhou and Bingzhou are the three major horse-producing areas in the Han Dynasty. The three places have different regions, different climates, and different horse breeds. When compared with each other, each has its own strengths.
Liangzhou's war horses are tallest in size, so they are the fastest, followed by Youzhou and Bingzhou last.
Of course, when it comes to durability, it's the other way around. Bingzhou War Horse is the leader, Youzhou is the second, and Liangzhou is the last.
All in all, the Liangzhou war horse is the fastest and is suitable for charging, the Bingzhou war horse is the strongest and is suitable for running attacks, and the Youzhou war horse is the most comprehensive. Although it has no strong points, it also has no major shortcomings.
Li Shimin gave Qin Hao three thousand Xiliang war horses this time. His gratitude and friendship were very obvious, and the distribution of these three thousand Xiliang war horses was also a problem.
Although there are not many soldiers and horses under Qin Hao's command, most of them are elite. Zhang Liao's broken camp, Gao Shun's trapped camp, Ran Min's Huben camp, Mu Guiying's Detachment of Women, Nine Dragon Guard, Tiger Guard, Iron Guard...
In Li Cunxiao's eyes, these elite battalions were competitors of the Flying Tiger Army. If he didn't fight for them, he would definitely not be able to drink the soup. But how could he compete with these seniors when he first arrived?
Fortunately, Li Cunxiao was smart enough to think of fighting for it before returning to Nanyang. Now he finally got the right to choose, and he only had to wait until he returned to Nanyang to show off his skills and form the Flying Tiger Army.
"Brother Qiao, we have to say goodbye today. I don't know when we will see each other again. Please take care of me."
Qin Hao raised his glass and clasped his fists. Seeing this, Qiao Feng also raised his glass and said, "Take care."
Watching Qin Hao leading the cavalry slowly away, Qiao Feng was filled with emotions. He had been traveling in the world for more than ten years and was used to seeing the warmth and coldness of people, but now he knew what it means to be heroic.
"The person who will bring peace to this troubled world must be the champion, Qin Hao."

Nanyang, Wancheng, Taishou Mansion.
As soon as he returned to Wancheng, Qin Hao received the news that Zhang Sheng announced the selection of his concubine.
His own woman is actually looking for a woman? So is her woman considered his own woman?
