Chapter 126 Happy to hear that Huang Zhong

Through the previous pursuit of grain and establishing loyalty, He Xian and Zhang Zhang established their majesty. After having this prestige, He Bai had completely controlled the military power in the lower army. The next step was to establish a good relationship with more than 40 middle and senior officers in the army and understand their respective temperaments and abilities.

The command ability and command ability of each general are empty, invisible and intangible. Only through long-term contact and actual combat in the future can He Bai make a vague judgment on everyone. The command ability cannot be understood quickly, but the military value can be quickly observed.

As a warrior, the way to deepen his feelings is naturally to make friends through martial arts. The ancient army was always dull. In addition to the privileges of the main generals, most of the people and others lacked entertainment programs. So after the daily intensive training, He Bai summoned all the officers to perform a one-on-one martial arts performance in front of all the soldiers.

The Han army is often accused of fighting fierce generals, but on weekdays, it is mostly a battle between soldiers, or the generals who command a few elite soldiers. How can we see a military captain and a military Sima who have the power to command the troops? The military marquis fight against each other in front of them. Therefore, every single challenge can cause cheers and heated discussions among the soldiers of the entire army.

On weekdays, each general often praises his own courage, but there is no result after praising him. However, the strength of the force is stronger and the weaker. As long as the single-handed challenge is passed, the whole army will be clear at a glance. He Bai saw that the single-handed challenge performance was very popular with the soldiers, and felt that this matter not only deepened the centripetal force of the soldiers in the army, but also improved the soldiers in the army's spirit of being strong and strong.

Especially at this time, soldiers of the entire army rarely travel around and stay in their own barracks, only knowing their own direct officers but not the other chiefs of the army. It is very easy to have a situation where the chiefs of their own officials will be in chaos as soon as their family members die. A large number of exposures can make the soldiers feel familiar with other chiefs and easily accept their commands. He Bai then turned the one-on-one competition in the form of performance into a one-on-one competition between senior military officers in the entire army.

There are seven major competitions a day, including He Bai and Zhang Zhang, and the five major army Sima, five fake Sima, ten army marquis, ten subordinates, and ten generals. Each general has three chances to play, and if he loses three consecutive games, he will lose the opportunity. If he is not defeated, he will continue to fight one-on-one until the last three-squad king is decided. On the last three days, the three-squad king will also accept a seven-squad challenge from the lower-level military officers and soldiers.

After one month, the nearly two hundred mixed singles matches were announced to end. The competition ended with He Bai as the one-on-one king who had never lost. He Bai also won the title of bravery and the whole army, and was respected by the soldiers of the entire army. The soldiers of the lower army also increased their centripetal force due to the competition and closely united around the generals led by He Bai.

Through the competition, He Bai learned about the character and martial arts of the forty generals under his command and the guest general Zhang Zhang. Only Zhang Zhang and Sima Chen Kui of the former army can fight against He Bai. Even the military is a good general who is specially used to fight against the formation and defend the key areas, he is not He Bai's opponent. He must have two or more generals join forces to compete with He Bai immediately.

Through the competition, He Bai also gained a lot. Not only did his martial arts knowledge increase, but his gun skills also progressed very quickly. In the end, he was no less than Han Rong. In a faint, the "Hundred Birds and Phoenix Spear" in the spear technique also showed a trace of understanding.

But He Bai always thought that Han Rong's gunsman was too strong and too rigid. He was afraid that he would practice wrongly until the end and it was not easy to change it, so he did not really aggregate the hundred moves into one style, forming the "Hundred Birds to Watch the Phoenix". Let's talk about it after being summoned to Zhao Yun.

After the competition was successfully concluded, He Bai ordered people to take 1,000 stones of pure white wine produced and stored in Luoyang Mansion this month to be used for a banquet for soldiers. After the soldiers of the army received He Bai's "Master Wine" rewards, their loyalty immediately increased. It should be noted that this is "Master Wine", a high-end famous wine that is rumored to be hard to get a stone of gold. Only the wise can drink it. Unexpectedly, He Bai was used to reward the soldiers under his command. All the soldiers were moved by He Bai's attention.

On this day, He Bai was watching the matter in the army, and suddenly a guest came to the army to report, saying, "Lord, there is Huang Zhong, a native of the capital of Nanyang Mountain, and the man named Hanshu, who came to Luoyang Mansion to visit and claimed that he was summoned by the lord..."

"Huang Zhong's name is Uncle Han? Isn't it Huang Hansheng?" He Bai asked in surprise. But when he thought that Guan Yu was both Guan Yunchang and Guan Changsheng, he suddenly woke up. It must have been because someone later remembered it wrongly. Or because he helped Liu Bei obtain Hanzhong, he changed his name to Hansheng.

It turned out that when He Bai was leaving Taiyuan and going to the capital, he sent dozens of people to the hometown of the powerful generals and strategists who knew about history but had no reputation in this fashion to look for their traces, hoping to make a good relationship first. However, after the destruction of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, most of the powerful generals and strategists were not at home, or had many official positions, which made many people go for nothing.

As for the powerful generals: Zhao Yun has not returned from his studies; Taishi Ci went to Liaodong; Ganning cannot find any trace; Xu Chu defended himself, and it is impossible to summon him without breaking the Yellow Turban; Le Jin wandered in the world, and Yu Jin didn't know where to join the army; Yan Liang and Wen Chou were the army Sima in Julu, Zhang He served as the army Sima in Wei County, and Gao Lan served as the army Sima in Bohai Kingdom, and He was not summoned by He Bai.

In terms of counselors: Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Xi Zhicai were not in Yingchuan due to the Yellow Turban Rebellion; Cheng Yu closed his studies and ignored He Bai's envoy; Tian Feng was missing; Ju Suo was in Jizhou; Jiangdong and two Zhangs regarded themselves very well, and had wealth in Xuzhou, so they also looked down on He Bai who was unknown at that time.

Even though several suspected first-class generals were found, they were just the same name. Unexpectedly, after half a year, another old Huang Zhong came. He Bai was both happy and worried when he heard this, for fear of looking for the wrong person again.

He Bai rode his horse all the way to Luoyang City, asking about Huang Zhong's background. According to the guests, Huang Zhong was attracted by a He Bai family soldier from Lingshou, Changshan. He was about forty years old, with a honest and simple face, but tall figure, and over eight and half feet. When he was young, he joined the army in Wancheng, Nanyang and later he had accumulated merits to fight against the Yellow Turban bandits and reached a general with a hundred people. When the Nanyang Prefect Qin Jie took office, he was promoted to the position of Marquis of the Military Army of Nanyang County.

In the third year of Zhongping, Huang Zhong's beloved wife unfortunately passed away. The child was sick for many years and was not taken care of by anyone. He was discharged from the army for some reason. Unexpectedly, a Jiangxia soldier, Zhao Ci, caused a rebellion and attacked Qin Jie. Therefore, Huang Zhong stayed at home to take care of the child without recovering. Fortunately, He Bai's family soldiers were found.

The soldier was clever. Seeing that Huang Zhong's son had been sick for many years but could not be cured, he invited Huang Zhong to the capital to find He Bai. With He Bai's reputation in the capital at this time, it was no problem to find some famous doctors or even imperial doctors for Huang Zhong's son. Huang Zhong was moved.

When He Bai heard this, he was immediately sure that this person was Huang Zhong and Huang Han in history. No, he should call him Uncle Huang Han now.

He rode his horse all the way and finally returned to Luoyang City. As soon as he entered the mansion, He Bai asked loudly: "Where is Uncle Huang Han? Tell me quickly to find him."

A maid came to lead He Bai. Because Huang Zhong was all from his family, he was arranged by Gongsun Ju in an independent courtyard. As soon as He Bai entered the courtyard, a tall and kind man in his forties came out of the room after hearing the sound.

Seeing that He Bai was introverted, his face was yellow, his back was slightly hunched, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat. Could this person be really Huang Zhong? But when everyone has come, He Bai cannot be rude. Moreover, in order to ensure that his reputation of benevolence and righteousness remains unchanged, even if this person is just an ordinary person, He Bai must help him.

He Bai stepped forward a few steps, bowed his hands with a smile on his face and asked, "I wonder if you are Uncle Huang Han in Nanyang. He Tianming is polite."

The honest man hurriedly said, "I am Huang Zhong, a native of Nanyang Mountain Capital. Huang Zhong is here to pay homage to Mr. He."

He Bai laughed and stepped forward to help Huang Zhong up and said, "In the first year of Zhongping, I heard that among the soldiers of Nanyang County, there was a sharp archer named Huang Zhong. His archery skills were very superb, and he had the ancient Yangyouji's sharp archery technique. Therefore, after I became the commander of Taiyuan, I wanted to ask you to become a general under my command, so I rashly sent someone to invite you. Unexpectedly, I found you for more than half a year before I found you. I was very lucky."

Huang Zhong bowed again: "Thank you, Mr. He, for his misappropriation, Huang Zhong was just a talented official and practiced archery for many years. He was only quite accurate. Yang Youji's sharpshooting technique is a talent that is beyond the reach of Huang Zhong."

When He Bai heard Huang Zhong say that his shooting skills were accurate, and his tall stature and strong arms, he must be not bad at both strength and martial arts. In addition, he is not humble or arrogant in speaking and has a polite manner, and he is definitely not an ordinary person of the same name. It seems that he is the one. Of course, famous generals often look at his ability to command troops and fight, rather than his martial arts. You need to know that ten martial arts are almost as fierce as one of the old Huang Zhong. Huang Zhongqiang is strong at his ability to command troops and fight.

He Bai didn't say much about Huang Zhong's humility. Because what Huang Zhong cares about at this time was not the attention others had on himself, but the concern for his son's serious illness. He Bai then asked: "I heard that your son is sick and has not been cured for several years. I wonder if I can go and check it out? After knowing the condition, it will be easier to hire a famous doctor for your son."

"Okay, okay, please come in the room of Mr. He."

Huang Zhong led He Bai into the room and saw a maid from the He family taking care of a twelve- and three-year-old demented man in the room. He Bai understood as soon as he saw it. He probably couldn't cure this child. Even in later generations with relatively superb medicine, such dementia could not be cured. Moreover, it seems that the child's body is still infertile, otherwise, Huang Zhong would not have recorded no descendants in history.
