Chapter 805: Giving a Sword to Break the Mountain
It is said that Hao Zhao shot a resounding arrow, which seemed to be conveying some message. He immediately turned over and knelt on the ground, saying to Chen Long: "I have an unkind request, please accept it, senior!"
Chen Long was thinking about what Hao Zhao said about Ma Chao's cruelty and murderousness. He was slightly startled when he heard the words. He quickly used his power to help him up and said, "Bo Dao, if you have any requests, just ask." He already had some premonitions in his heart.
Sure enough, Hao Zhao bowed again and said: "Senior, I have been in the army since I was a child, and I have been practicing martial arts with great motivation. However, I have not been taught by famous teachers, and my martial arts have withered. Now I have the chance to meet the master, how can I miss it? I led my horse and followed him. Learn martial arts in front of the master. If you can learn one or two, I am willing to join the Qinglong Army as a soldier."
Chen Long smiled slightly. It seemed that Hao Zhao had determined that he had a deep connection with the Qinglong Army and was unwilling to succumb to Ma Chao. Immediately he said: "I already know Bo Dao's heart. However, Bo Dao's skill is not in martial arts, but in the art of war. I want Bo Dao to experience the world's best city-defending art of war. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Hao Zhao felt as if he had fallen into a fog. He felt a chill in his heart and said, "I'm a fool. Master, it's fine that I don't want to accept it. But what's the point of experiencing the world's best city-defending tactics?"
Chen Long smiled and said: "I have my own skills in observing people. I see that Bo Dao is tall and broad, and his ape-like arms are good at shooting. He is good at defending the city. In my letter, I have asked Meng Qi to put you in charge of the south direction of Hanzhong. Jiange, this place is the key route into Shu, easy to defend but difficult to attack, it is where Bo Dao gained experience."
Hao Zhao realized that the master had such a plan, but could Ma Chao listen to him? I can't help but be dubious. However, if he could stop taking orders from Ma Chao and give Hao Zhao a place to run the sword pavilion, it would be better than the carelessness of this remote country.
It turns out that Chen Long wanted to make Hao Zhao the key to resisting Bashu's attack. With Hao Zhao's good defensive ability, he was absolutely capable of doing the job. As long as the manpower and material resources are in place and Hao Zhao is allowed to build another Jiange City, it can also become a bridgehead for attacking Bashu in the future. Therefore, in the letter, very clear instructions were given to Ma Chao and Ma Dai to support Hao Zhao in establishing Jiange City.
As for myself, I still can't bring Hao Zhao with me, it will only affect my actions. In the future, whether they attack Xiliang or Bashu, they will still have to rely on the strength of Ma Chao and Hao Zhao.
Hao Zhao was about to say more when he heard footsteps and several people walked in. Chen Long knew that the people had been summoned by the sound of arrows just now. When he looked up, he saw three men and one woman, each tall and short, wearing long skirts and short coats. They were all very energetic.
Chen Long sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, intent on watching the attitudes of those people. Hao Zhao introduced one by one: "These are my four deputies, each with more than 300 people." Pointing to a tall and strong man, he said: "This is Wang Sheng." Wang Sheng hurriedly bowed down.
Hao Zhao pointed to another scholar and said: "This is my fellow countryman Jin Xiang." Chen Long was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that the person Zhuge Liang sent to persuade Hao Zhao in the novel would actually be fleeing here with Hao Zhao in this life.
Jin Xiang also hurriedly bowed down and his words were extremely polite. Hao Zhao introduced the third man again: "This is Sun Zi, whose courtesy name is Yanlong." When Chen Long looked at him, Sun Zi's eyes flashed and he looked over, but there was no respect in his eyes. He just held his hand. The son made a slight arch as a courtesy.
Chen Long nodded slightly, and Hao Zhao pointed to the female general and said: "This is the sister of Su Ze, the prefect, and her name is the word "happy". After the prefect died, the Su family fled, and it was all led by Su Yu."
Su Yu had regular features, a dark complexion, and a thin figure. He looked quite heroic in every gesture. After hearing Hao Zhao's introduction, he turned over and bowed down without hesitation: "Meet the master."
Hao Zhao saw that Chen Long had met the three of them, and then told him about Chen Long's arrangements for all the people to settle down in Ma Chao Hanzhong. Obviously, everything here is discussed and handled by these five people. At this moment, when they heard Ma Chao's name, they all frowned slightly.
Hao Zhao once again explained Chen Long's intention of letting people like him go to Jiange to establish a city-state. When everyone heard about it, they immediately started talking. Sun Zi was the first to stand up and objected: "What the master said is ridiculous. I heard that Ma Chao is the most difficult to cooperate with. If you don't agree to the master's request, it will be nothing, and you may even be killed by Ma Chao." ."
This was said very rudely, which meant that Chen Long didn't believe him at all. Wang Sheng obviously agreed with what Sun Zi said. Jin Xiang lowered his head and said nothing, but Su Yu said against all opinions: "Jiange is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and there are supplies of materials from Hanzhong. I believe that the Su family can live and work in peace and contentment. If you don't go , I took hundreds of people from the Su family to go."
It turned out that these people had received favors from Su Ze when he was the prefect, so Su Yu's words made everyone speechless for a moment. Chen Long was moved when he saw Su Yu trusting him so much, and he also looked at this heroic Su Yu with admiration.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Su Yu cupped his hands to Hao Zhao and Chen Longyi and said: "Master, Brother Hao, my little sister will go back now and let the Su family get ready. There are three hundred and fourteen people in the Su family, tomorrow morning Let's set out on time with big brother." After saying that, he turned around and walked out without further ado.
Wang Sheng and Jin Xiang obviously had a good impression of Su Yu. Seeing that Su Yu was so determined, they also handed him over and left. Before leaving, they simply said that they would leave early tomorrow morning. Hao Zhao looked at Sun Zi and saw that Sun Zi lowered his head without saying a word, shook his head slightly and left. Hao Zhao said to Chen Long: "Master, if Sun Zi doesn't go, Wang Sheng, Su Yu and Jin Xiang and I will go. The Xiping Gang will be disbanded."
Chen Long nodded slightly and said to Hao Zhao: "Bo Dao, your sword skills are turning as expected, but your internal strength is a little inferior." After saying that, he took the Broken Mountain Sword and said, "This sword is very useful for training your internal strength. Bo Dao only needs to use it." Try to penetrate the inner strength into the sword body, and experience it repeatedly, and it will have endless magical effects. Today I give it to Bo Dao, hoping that Bo Dao will build a sword pavilion and cultivate unparalleled soldiers."
Hao Zhao was overjoyed and quickly refused: "Although Hao Zhao is dull, I heard that a gentleman will not win the love of others. How can a swordsman lose his dagger today? This must not happen."
Chen Long heard that the long and short swordsmen were the product of his own bragging. It was rare for Hao Zhao to remember it so clearly. He smiled and said: "Where are the long and short swordsmen! Having too many swords is a burden. I have a giant sword at my side. It is enough." "Hao Zhao refused for a long time, then knelt down and accepted the mountain-breaking sword.
Chen Long was happy when he saw that the Broken Mountain Sword had its owner. He raised his glass involuntarily. Hao Zhao raised his glass and toasted: "But where will senior go?"
Chen Long drank it all and said, "Early tomorrow morning, I will go to Shangqiu to divide the canal and meet the master of Wenxi Sword."
