Chapter 61 Unparalleled Bravery
It's not that Cao Zhi is weak, even Confucian scholars in this era are not weak.

It's just that compared with the generals on the battlefield, Confucian scholars obviously have two roles, so counselors also lead troops, but it doesn't mean that they have to charge forward.

"Zijian, you are in charge of logistics, how can you go?"

"This... I'm impulsive, I don't consider the overall situation, please punish my father."

Cao Cao found it interesting that he took the initiative to accept the punishment, and this enthusiasm is still right.

So he smiled: "I discussed this matter with you gentlemen, and I also feel that Dongwu should not be allowed to take over the prestige. Your brother has 10 people in Wulin. Soochow would not dare to act rashly, but our army deployment has been completed. It will be troublesome to deploy troops again.”

"Therefore, I will ask General Zhang He to accompany you."

"You can't have any more problems with food and grass."

Cao Zhi looked happy, and hurriedly saluted to accept the task: "I will definitely bring back the head of the Soochow general!"

He also knew that Cao Cao was not optimistic about what he could do on the battlefield, so he just took people there.

So this task was given to him purely as an encouragement. There was Cao Ang over there, and even if it didn't work, there was Cheng Yu next to him.

Aren’t you afraid that Soochow’s raids will delay the construction period? Well, I’ll transfer a general to play with you guys!
Zhang He, one of the five famous generals in later generations, is also good at shooting.

Cao Cao was naturally dissatisfied with being bullied like this, and it was even more inappropriate to delay the construction period because of this.

At this time, Jiang Gan stood up and said, "Prime Minister, Gan Ning is good at water warfare. Although General Zhang Yun is brave, if he fights on the water... I'm afraid he will not accept the water and soil?"

It's not to underestimate anyone, but combat on the water is still different from combat on shore.

But Cao Cao's subordinates are all generals who are not good at water warfare, and he is not fully familiar with the generals of Soochow who came to surrender.

"In this case, let Jun Yi guard the camp, don't pursue him, and keep safe."

When Jiang Gan said that, Cao Cao had no objection, so he didn't attack. Could it be that Gan Ning was still Zhang Yun's opponent after he landed?

As long as Zhang He protected the camp on the shore, Cao Cao felt that Gan Ning could do whatever he wanted on the river.

……

On Cao Ang's side, Cheng Yu got Huang Zhong in just one day.

"I'm Huang Zhong, and I'm here on the order!"

First, he told Cai Mao about his intention, and then Cai Hao asked the guards to take him to see Cao Ang.

With Wenpin at his side, Cai Mao asked strangely, "Young Master, why did you transfer this person here? This person is old, and he is still transferred to the front line. I'm afraid he is too tired?"

"Compared to this, I am even more surprised how the young master knows this person."

Wenpin seems to be very strange, Cao Ang is very good, and suddenly he transferred a little-known general from Jingzhou.

Both of them and Huang Zhong are Liu Biao's subordinates, they don't know the details of this person, only from his appearance, this person is really old.

This may be the reason why Liu Biao didn't discover Huang Zhong's ability very much. After all, his hair and beard are all white.

The average life expectancy was so low in ancient times, especially in the troubled times at the end of the Han Dynasty. People in this age can be satisfied if they can live past thirty.

Seeing Huang Zhong's appearance, Liu Biao felt that he couldn't bear to burden him. Wouldn't it be good to go back and take care of his life?
Huang Zhong was seldom talkative, and he was not good at speaking. After the guards brought him into Cao Ang's camp, he directly stated his intention.

"I called you here urgently, the general has worked hard."

"General Zhonglang is being polite. He just came from Changsha. What's the point? General Zhonglang thinks the old man is useless? If that's the case, why did you transfer the old man here?"

He was actually unconvinced, why is he looking down on others again.

Liu Biao is not blind, but Huang Zhong's appearance is really not very popular, mainly because of his appearance.

Of course, his physique is not bad, his physique is old and not fading, it is really a strange flower.

But Cao Ang knew that this old man's fighting power is still the best in the world, and basically he can't find any opponents. Even if you think Guan Yu can't beat him, who can be stronger than Guan Yu?

Even when Lu Bu was around, Huang Zhong was not at this age, so he might be able to fight.

At this time, Huang Zhong still chose to join the army. Cao Ang thought it might be because his son was dead and there were signs of failure.

"The general misunderstood. I know that the general's bravery is unparalleled in the world."

"What, Zhonglang will..."

These words surprised Huang Zhong himself. He knew that he was good, but he definitely didn't know how good he was.

Before that, he was a small person, and he was not even qualified to face those famous generals. Who would know the outcome of a fight.

Cao Ang praised Huang Zhong so highly, but Huang Zhong was at a loss. This shouldn't be a praise...

"The old general doesn't have to be confused. Let the old general come here this time to build meritorious service. I don't have the time to play with anyone. As long as the general has ambitions in his heart, I can provide the general with opportunities."

"From now on, the general will have the opportunity to compete with the strongest famous generals in the world."

"I, Cao Ang, will not let the general live up to this life."

The words directly pierced Huang Zhong's heart, what he thought in his heart was to burn his only life and be brilliant.

In fact, who is more noble than anyone else, isn't it the same for Gan Ning? If you don't become a water thief and seek refuge in Jiangdong, it is for merit.

The same goes for Liu, Guan and Zhang. Achievements are more valuable than lives. Not only do you have a foundation, but you will still be remembered after thousands of years!

So recruiting a general is not too difficult. As long as you are not paranoid and you can give him a step, he will follow you.

Liu Guanzhang has a sworn relationship, so Cao Cao will never be able to give him a step, unless Liu Bei died at that time.

Are righteous men in the world really for the Han Dynasty?
It can be said that none of them are, they all know that no one can help the Han Dynasty to this day.

"Then Zhonglang will call me here, what's the matter?"

"It's not a big deal, how about letting the general be subordinate to my five-official department for the time being?"

Huang Zhong didn't know what to say, so he had to salute and said: "General Zhonglang has orders, and the last general is willing to wear strong and sharp!"

This is basically done. Give him this stage, and he will work hard, and Liu Bei will not be able to dig it away.

"Speaking of which, I only think of the general when something happens. It's a trivial matter. The most important thing is that the general can come and is willing to serve me."

"General Zhonglang, what is the matter?"

Of course Huang Zhong knew who Cao Ang was, how could he not know such a big thing.

Therefore, the words Cao Ang said are attractive to anyone, and this is the most popular candidate for the crown prince.

Cao Cao himself let go of the word, and the eldest son of Cao Ang was appointed. Although it was just a talk and it had not yet been decided, the eldest son was the eldest son after all.

In comparison, Huang Zhong is even more puzzled why Cao Ang thinks highly of himself.

"It's not a big deal, but yesterday when our warship was patrolling, we met a general from Eastern Wu named Gan Ning. This man was extremely skilled in archery. He shot and killed more than a dozen of our soldiers in an instant, and then left."

"General Zhonglang, what is this? Let the last general fight and bring his head back!"

Huang Zhong regained his energy immediately, wondering why, archery, isn't it easy?
