The layout of Chu Jun's commander's tent was very simple, with a large map hanging on a wooden board, a table and a chair.
The curtain of the big tent was rolled up, and the sun shone on the ground. Ji Shu sat on a small pony in front of the table. He huddled in the shadows and stared at the bright sunlight on the ground in a daze.
He has long, fine hair, black with silver light, and a plain face with a perseverance that makes people fascinated. The slim figure looks great in white armor.
Wei Yan stood in front of him and reported what happened bit by bit, while Ji Shu just stared at the sunlight on the ground quietly, not sure if he heard it or not.
But after Wei Yan finished speaking, he spoke.
"Although Mi Fang is Liu Bei's second uncle, his status in Xu Han is insignificant. Guan Yu came to deal with us on Liu Bei's order. Since he dares to let Mi Fang take risks, it means that he doesn't care about Mi Fang's life or death at all."
"However, Mi Fang is not useless. After all, he is Mi Zhu's younger brother and Madam Mi's second brother. Guan Yu has always been loyal, but he has an upright temperament, is prone to anger and anger, and does not know how to adapt. If he really dares to do everything in front of the two armies, Regardless of Mi Fang’s life or death, the soldiers’ hearts will be chilled and their morale will be shaken.”
"Mi Fang, I'll leave it to you, do you know what to do?"
Wei Yan's eyes lit up.
Mi Fang's life and death were decided in a few words from Ji Shu, and his words were a bit cold.
The gentle wind that wrapped around his body disappeared, and it seemed to be covered with a layer of cold white frost, as if he was indifferent to everything.
But when he raised his eyes, Wei Yan saw a pair of eyes as sharp as swords.
Wei Yan was faintly excited, this is it, this is what he is waiting for, this is the coach he is waiting for. Wei Yan cupped his fists and said decisively.
"Wei Yan will not disappoint his military advisor!"
"Okay, go back and get ready."
"Take orders!"
Wei Yan cupped his fists and bowed, turned around and left the commander's tent.
After Wei Yan left, Ji Shu's eyes fell to the ground again, feeling a little absent-minded.
At this time, a person walked out from behind the board with a map and stood next to Ji Shu.
"How about it?"
"Wei Yan didn't hide anything about what happened. His loyalty should be trustworthy."
The person who answered Ji Shu turned out to be Jiang Qin, the general of the Yulin Army and Wei Yan's immediate boss.
He seems to have known about the abnormal situation in Yulin's army for a long time. Perhaps he is the one who is most worried about Wei Yan.
It's a bit strange to say that Jiang Qin obviously didn't want anyone under his command to harbor disloyal intentions, but after confirming Wei Yan's loyalty, Jiang Qin felt complicated. He stared at the door for a long time before sighing and sighing.
"Wei Yan is still so unpredictable."
Is there any?
Ji Shu raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Qin and said this.
"Gongyi, did you make something wrong?"
Seeing Jiang Qin's confused look, Ji Shu spoke slowly and lazily.
"Mencius once said: "If you treat me as a countryman, I should repay you as a countryman! If you treat me as a stranger, I should repay you as a stranger! If you treat me as a stranger, I should repay you as an enemy!'. "
"As it is said, people's hearts are equal. I treat him with kindness and kindness, but he turns away from me. This is a traitor; I treat him with carelessness, and he turns away from me. This is human nature."
It's not feasible to expect all of your subordinates to die in retribution for no reason. To make soldiers fall in love and work to the death, as a general, you must also treat each other with love.
This is the truth passed down by the sages, and it is also what Ji Shu learned from Sun Ce. This is true of Liu Bei, who is polite and virtuous, and even Cao Cao, who said, "I would rather teach me to betray the people of the world than teach the people of the world to betray me."
"Han Xuan treated Huang Zhong and Wei Yan like ants. He would kill them if they wanted to, and chop them into pieces if they wanted. How ridiculous. General Huang Zhong still served with loyalty. This is a noble act! Because of this, General Huang Zhong's high righteousness was recognized by the world. Praise."
"Wei Yan's rebellion is just the normal state of people's hearts. Don't use General Huang's noble character to judge everyone, take it for granted."
"You are already the general of the Yulin Army. If you cannot understand this truth, it is like not believing that your own sword can cut off other people's swords, and not believing that your arrows can pierce the enemy's armor. You will never be able to use the Yulin Army. The fingers are as good as the arms."
Ji Shu stood up and put two fingers on Jiang Qin's chest.
"It cannot be said that it is wrong for you to be more defensive, but you still lack a normal heart and you have never given them the fairness they deserve. I let you listen here this time just to let you dispel your worries. Try to trust them, reuse them, and treat them as your brothers."
Jiang Qin was immediately ashamed. Among the three commanders under his command, Wei Yan, Su Fei, and Hou Cheng, he only trusted Hou Cheng, but was always wary of Wei Yan and Su Fei.
Although these two people are very talented, their loyalty is really unpredictable! He had complained in private, wondering why Ji Shu quickly promoted Wei Yan and Su Fei to commanders and became the backbone of the Yulin Army.
Until this moment, Jiang Qin was shocked to realize that he had always viewed Wei Yan and Su Fei with prejudice.
If you don't trust your comrades on the battlefield, how can you kill the enemy with all your strength?
Jiang Qin quickly clasped his fists and said to Ji Shu.
"Commander, I know what to do."
Jiang Qin is an upright and serious person. After Ji Shu handed over the Yulin Army to him, he always thought about living up to the trust of Sun Ce and Ji Shu and commanding the Yulin Army well. But people who are too persistent sometimes take detours.
Ji Shu nodded slightly, he still believed that Jiang Qin could be the general of the Yulin Army.
Turning around and walking to the map, Ji Shu's expression became serious.
"How is the situation with the army?"
"Although the soldiers are a little uneasy, they are strong-willed and can fight."
Having said this, Jiang Qin couldn't help but feel a little relieved. Although the Yulin Army had stumbled along the way, it had been growing. Jiang Qin hesitated for a moment, then asked again.
"Military advisor, Fan Neng and Zhang Ying's cronies escaped with more than 200 people. Why don't you let me catch them and bring them back?"
Ji Shu stared at the map in fascination, wondering what he was thinking. Hearing Jiang Qin's words, he subconsciously opened his mouth and asked.
"Escape? Where are they going?"
Jiang Qin was stunned.
"Report~~"
A voice interrupted their thoughts.
The soldiers who came back to report the military situation strode into the commander's tent and bowed on one knee.
"Inform the military advisors and generals that traces of the Han army have been discovered."
Ji Shu's eyes seemed to be instantly lit with bright flames, shining brightly. he asked, turning sharply.
"Where?"
"In the woods thirty miles east of the county seat of Qiao County, when the scouts discovered it, the Han army was already marching towards our army's station."
It seems that the enemy is also impatient.
This battle is very important for the Yulin Army. If it wins, it will relieve the desperate situation where Sun Ce's main force is surrounded from all sides, and the soldiers of the Yulin Army will also be able to strengthen their fighting spirit. If they lose, the Yulin Army will have no way to retreat. , nothing but death.
Ji Shu's eyes narrowed.
"Is the enemy commander Guan Yu?"
The soldier didn't know the details, so he thought it was the military counselor's clever plan, and paused to report in admiration.
"It is Guan Yu, the general of Xu Han. Under his command are the elite 'White-Er Soldiers' of the Han army, about 20,000 people."
Ji Shu gritted his teeth and said.
"Bang the general drum, I will destroy Liu Bei's white-eared soldiers today!"
