After a small episode, Liu Zhang also discussed in detail the delivery of the war horse with Wei Ji.

Wei Ji also became smarter this time, and there was no unpleasantness in the middle.

After all, Liu Zhang didn't ask too much, and it could be regarded as a little comfort for Wei Ke's injured heart.

"Bo Yu, this matter has a lot to do with it, you must not delay my important matter!"

Liu Zhang was afraid that Wei Ke would use excuses to shirk again, so he urged him repeatedly.

"Don't worry, the general later, since I promise the general, I will never break my promise!"

Wei Ke also patted his chest and assured Liu Zhang that the vowed promise would never be missed.

Liu Zhang still trusts Wei Ji, no matter how stupid Wei Kai is, he will understand the importance of Liu Zhang's expedition to the northwest!

Besides, Wei Ji is definitely a smart person, and a smart person would not do stupid things on purpose.

"That's why I'm begging Bo to covet!"

Everything was settled smoothly, and Liu Zhang's mood improved.

"You are welcome, general! It is my honor to be able to share the worries of the general!"

The matter was no longer in danger, Wei Ji also heaved a sigh of relief, and flattered Liu Zhang properly.

"Bo Yu, we are all our own people, so there is no need to be polite."

Looking at Liu Zhang's extremely hypocritical expression, Wei Ke felt extremely disgusted in his heart, but he couldn't help but laugh along with him.

"By the way, Bo Cui, the person outside the door is Xu Huang whom I asked you to find, right?"

Wei Ji nodded, it took him a lot of effort to find this person.

"General Empress, this person is only a weak crown and his family is poor. I don't know why the General is looking for this person?"

"Well, I am also entrusted by others!"

Liu Zhang didn't dare to say that he was his favorite general, so he could only make up an excuse at will.

"The general later saw his talent?"

When Xun You saw Wei coveting about Xu Huang's talent, he immediately became angry.

"Bo Yu, what kind of talent does this person have? At first when the lord recruited him, he still showed hesitation. When the lord said that a real man would fight on the battlefield, he refused without hesitation. He is clearly a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!"

"How can such a cowardly person have any talent?"

Xun You's scolding made Wei Ji very dissatisfied, and he kept complaining in his heart.

How do I know who Xu Huang is? Didn't your master ask me to find it?

I have spent a lot of effort to find him now, and I will be blamed by you!

It's really deceiving!

But Wei Ji could only say these words in his heart, without daring to show any emotion on his face.

"Brother Gongda, I really don't know much about Xu Huang! I thought that the person whom the general later recruited himself would be either brilliant or brave, but I didn't expect him to be so timid!"

"However, I heard that Xu Huang is still a little brave. Although he is only a small official, he is superb with a big axe, which is hard to match!"

Wei Ke's words caught Liu Zhang's attention, with a big axe in his hand!

Didn't Xu Huang just use a big ax as a weapon?

"Bo Yu, do you understand Xu Huang's situation? If you know something, you may as well tell me."

Wei Ke nodded, he really understood something, and immediately told Liu Zhang what he knew.

It turned out that Xu Huang was only a civil servant in the county, not a position related to soldiers.

Xu Huang lost his father since he was a child, and his mother had her legs broken because of an incident in order to protect Xu Huang.

Now Xu Huang's mother can only sit at home paralyzed, everything depends on Xu Huang.

Xu Huang couldn't stay away from home because of his mother's health. After get off work every day, he must serve his mother first.

"Hey, another filial person!"

Liu Zhang already knew Xu Huang's difficulties, and couldn't help sighing.

If you were not sure whether this Xu Huang was the one Liu Zhang was looking for just now, but now Liu Zhang is completely sure.

Filial piety is very important in this era. If a person is not filial to his mother, he will definitely be looked down upon.

If you are cast aside by the world and leave a stigma all over your body, then don't even think about doing anything!

"Gongda, Wenhe, you stay with Bo Mou for a while, and I'll go out for a while."

Liu Zhang's heart had already drifted to Xu Huang, and he couldn't wait to walk out.

Xu Huang was still standing there, although he seemed out of place with everyone, but he didn't feel the slightest embarrassment.

"Gongming, if you are tired from standing, you can go inside and rest."

Seeing that it was Liu Zhang who was coming, Xu Huang hurriedly cupped his hands and saluted.

"Meet the queen general!"

"Gongming doesn't need to be too polite."

Liu Zhang approached, with a little admiration in his eyes.

This kind of person who puts filial piety first, no matter when and in what era, is worthy of respect.

"Gongming refused my solicitation, but because of your mother?"

Xu Huang's eyes were blank for a while, he didn't speak, but nodded slightly.

On the contrary, Liu Zhang was overjoyed. As long as there is a problem, it can be solved. The most fearful thing is that there is no way to start!

Wasn't Tai Shici the same back then? It was through Tai Shici's mother that he was able to recruit.

"Gongming, I have a general under my command named Taishi Ci with the style Ziyi. Now he is the captain of Wufeng Camp under my command, and he is in charge of nearly 6,000 cavalry!"

"Ziyi, like you, used to be a small official in Qingzhou County, but he was burdened by the conflict between the state government and the county government, so he had to take his physically handicapped mother away to Liaodong to avoid disaster."

"Unfortunately, when I arrived in Beihai, I was recognized by the officials of the state capital, and I was almost caught in prison."

"I was only ten years old at the time, and I was going to Beihai to study. I met Tai Shici's mother and son who had nowhere to go. Fortunately, my father was old with Huang Wan, the governor of Qingzhou at that time, so he reluctantly gave me a face!"

"Ziyi also only has his mother alive, and now I support him in my mansion. Ziyi followed me to fight here and there, and experienced countless battles! In just one year, he was promoted to the rank of captain and led a battalion of troops!"

After Liu Zhang finished speaking from the bottom of his heart, he looked at Xu Huang with hope in his eyes.

History is always so similar! It's just that compared to Tai Shici, Xu Huang is far from dead end.

However, these conditions are also very generous. In one year, he was promoted to a height that most people could not reach!

Xu Huang worked as a small official in the county, and his income must be very meager. No matter how filial he is, his living conditions will definitely be restricted due to his meager income. The quality is definitely not as good as Liu Zhang's General Palace.

Doesn't Xu Huang understand these things? He understood everything, even every word Liu Zhang said, he completely understood.

Unfortunately, Xu Huang still couldn't convince himself.

He is afraid, he is afraid to go to the battlefield, he is afraid to die in battle!

"The general's kindness, I am beyond words to express my gratitude. It's just that I really can't promise the general."

Liu Zhang knew that although Xu Huang rejected him now, he was definitely shaken, and he could clearly see it from Xu Huang's eyes.

"Gong Ming is afraid of going to the battlefield?"

Xu Huang didn't show any shame, and nodded calmly, confirming the matter.

"I'm afraid of death, let alone die!"
