Chapter 158

The geek comes to vote

The two thousand beggar soldiers in the ** regiment walked slowly towards Luoshi Valley. God did not take care of everyone because of the war today. The fiery red sun was still so vicious that the sun was almost peeling.

There were war horses running back from time to time in front of him, which was the scouts' latest battle report to Hu You. The three consecutive battle reports were "safe and no enemies were found."

Hu You acted very calmly, as if he was confident. Every time he received a war report, he always nodded with a smile, as if all this was as expected.

These two thousand soldiers in torn clothes were all soldiers from the ** regiment. They had no objection to Hu You asking them to wear this kind of ragged military uniform, but instead seemed very excited. Because they were with Hu You, they were the protagonists in this battle. At least they thought it was like this.

The soldiers of the ** regiment were not very clear about where the other troops were at this time. They didn't even know whether those people would participate in today's battle.

Although they were very curious about this issue in the hearts of the soldiers of the ** regiment, they would not ask more questions. On the first day they joined the ** regiment, Hu You said that in the army, there is only obedience, no reason, and damn curiosity is even more unbearable, that would kill your life.

The scout who came back for the fourth time was different from the previous three times. Even if he had not approached, the soldiers knew that there was something going on this time.

The scout who came back was covered in blood, and even the tail of the war horse was cut off. The blind man couldn't see that there was any problem here.

"Sir, I found that the target was a robber." The scout turned over and dismounted and reported immediately.

When Zhu Daneng heard this, he was excited and tightened the spear in his hand. The soldiers beside him also responded the same several times.

The soldiers around Hu You were the Kochis’s guard battalion. They were full-time guards before. Since they were here, let them do their jobs.

It was said that it was a guard battalion, but in fact there were a few people. Including Kochis, there were only thirty-one people, and they were just a team. However, they were all very skilled. According to Kochis, these people were his many years of life-living brothers, and they absolutely did not ask about their loyalty.

Hu You chose to believe in Kochis because he knew that Kochis is more nervous than him at present. Hu You is the only person who can help Li Yulian now. Even if Kochis would rather be injured himself than let Hu You have something to do.

Hu You glanced at the scout and asked, "What kind of personnel are the robbers, how many people are there, what weapons are they using, and what combat power are they approximate?"

At this time, a soldier next to him came forward to support the scout, but was pushed away by the soldier. It seemed that his injuries looked quite powerful, but in fact they were not that serious.

The scout held his back and said with some difficulty: "The enemy should be the men from the Rock Valley, using bows, arrows and swords. The number of people is about one thousand, and the combat power is average."

"Is that true?" Hu You smiled and suddenly shouted: "Take it down."

Hu You's loud shout was very sudden. Even Zhu Daneng, who had been with Hu You for some time, did not react to something. The scout had been pressed to the ground by Kochis.

Hu You looked at Kochis admiringly, snorted coldly, "Tell me, who are you and who sent you here."

The scout who was held by the guard camp not only did not show any panic, but instead laughed: "It is said that the immortal bird Hu You is extremely smart. When you see him today, he is indeed well-known. I admire him, and admire him."

Hu You didn't react at all to the compliment of the man, and still asked coldly: "Tell me out your identity, I am not very patient, so you'd better not force me to do something."

The visitor stood up straight and said, "I must say it, but before I talk about it, I want to know how Lord Hu You saw my flaws. I am confident that I have done well enough and there is no difference from any scout under your command."

"Want to know?" Hu You smiled indifferently and said, "Your flaws are not your fault. If you want to blame, you can only blame your parents."

"My parents?" the man said strangely.

Not only him, but even Zhu Daneng looked at Hu You with a strange look on his face. Is there anything else about other people's parents?

Hu You didn't let them be surprised for too long, and gave the answer directly: "Because your parents didn't give you a look like my soldiers. You can say that there is no flaw in your body, and the only flaw is that I don't know you."

"Can you know every scout under your jurisdiction?" asked the visitor in surprise. In his impression, officers were always high and arrogant. If you can glance at the soldiers at once, it would be a kindness. Hu You, who can actually know every scout, is simply incomparable.

"Wrong" Hu You shook his head and said, "It's not about knowing every scout, but about every soldier. As long as it is my soldier, I know everything."

The soldiers who heard this subconsciously nodded. They could prove that Hu You was telling the truth. Because many of them had personally experienced the happiness of being named by Hu You. It is a happy thing for a soldier to be remembered by the commander, and it proved that he was in the eyes of the commander.

The visitor was completely convinced when he heard this. Although it had not been confirmed, he believed that with Hu You's identity, he would not use such words to deceive him.

The visitor slightly broke away from the guards escorting him on both sides, and knelt down on one knee and said, "I have met Lord Hu You in Rock Valley."

"Are you from Rock Valley?" Hu You was not surprised by the identity of the visitor, but was interested in his purpose.

Song Qingshan replied in a humble and arrogant manner: "The second leader of Luoshigu."

Hu You laughed and said, "You are doing well. You can actually become the leader of a bandit. It seems that you have some skills."

Song Qingshan replied, "I dare not, I am still too lucky than you, General."

Hu You said seriously: "Tell me, you are in danger today. What are you going to do? Are you scared when you see my strong soldiers and horses? Want to come and throw yourself into the city?"

Song Qingshan saw Hu You proudly pointed at his army that was almost the same as beggars. What else could he say besides smiling bitterly?

Song Qingshan said: "General Hu You, don't joke with me. I know that your trump card is not here. You are right. I am indeed here to join the city today."

"Why?" Hu You put away his smile and asked coldly.

Song Qingshan also said very seriously: "Because I know your strength."

Hu You looked at Song Qingshan coldly, and after a long time, he asked, "So you chose to betray Rock Valley."

"No," Song Qingshan replied: "It's not considered betrayal. I advised Zhou Longzheng, but he didn't listen to me. He doesn't believe in your strength, so be careful to fail. I'm just finding a way out for myself. The choice made for survival is not considered betrayal."

Song Qingshan's words attracted him contempt. Most of the people who heard this had no good impression of him except a few people.

Hu You asked, "You said you wanted to surrender to me?"

"Yes." Song Qingshan nodded. Even though he was rolled so many times, his performance still did not change much.

Hu You looked at Song Qingshan's eyes and asked, "You can abandon Zhou Longzheng and join me today for survival, and you will abandon me for two reasons in the future. Do you think I want someone like you?"

Song Qingshan looked at Hu You for the first time and said, "A master who is incompetent is not qualified to be loyal to his subordinates. If you don't want me to betray again, then you can only do better. If you keep succeeding but not failing, there will naturally be no betrayal. If you keep walking, what is the value of honesty?"

When Hu You heard this, he nodded secretly in his heart. He also agreed with Song Qingshan's words. Sometimes betrayal cannot be considered a bad thing. Sun Wuzi was born as a native of Qi, but resolutely left Le'an, bid farewell to Qi, traveled a long distance, and defected to Wu, and became the name of his own military strategy in Wu, and was buried in Wu after his death. Has anyone ever said that he betrayed Qi?

If a general cannot retain talents, it is because he has problems himself. If a country cannot retain talents, it is because there is problems in the entire country. People who know that they cannot do anything but still have to die. Some people regard them as heroes, while Hu You regards them as fools.

Youdao means learning the art of literature and martial arts, selling goods to the imperial family. Talents and people who employ people are just a business relationship. You cannot ask a businessman to force a business that can no longer be done for a few old customers who have been patronizing for decades. You cannot let a talent not only put in hard work but also give life when trading with you.

Hu You wanted the loyalty of his subordinates, but he definitely did not want those foolish and loyal people. Whenever a foolish and loyal person appeared, it means that the dynasty or power was in decline. There are many records in history of such things, but people often pay attention to the deeds of those loyal ministers, and have not considered how loyal ministers became loyal ministers.

If you want your subordinates to be loyal to yourself, you don’t rely on things like bullshit beliefs, but give them hope, substantial benefits, and reasons to be loyal to you. To do this, you must be constantly strong and strong. Will there be betrayal when you become the best and the only choice?

When Langtian's first civil rebellion, a sentence said by a general made Hu You remember it deeply until now. At that time, the general caught an anti-civilian who brought people to grab food. When interrogating, he asked why he rebelled and sentenced the country. He replied: "I'm hungry and I have to eat." The general made a thought-provoking and trembling sentence on the spot: "Is eating more important than patriotism?"

People can no longer survive, so how can they still be patriotic? Patriotism is actually hungry?

When Hu You heard this, he walked away. He was not a member of the Mandala Empire, and this was not his country. He did not love the Mandala Empire, but he had lived and died for the Mandala Empire. You can say that he did this because of his own purpose, but you cannot deny that when Anrong people invaded Qingzhou, he brought people to block it with all their might. He shed blood for the Mandala Empire. What did Emperor Valencia, who was born as the lord of a country, do he easily ceded Qingzhou, which hundreds of thousands of soldiers saved with their lives, to Anrong. Who exactly did he love this country more?

"What do you know?" Hu You asked Song Qingshan withdrew his thoughts.

A trace of admiration flashed in Song Qingshan's eyes. He knew that Hu You had accepted him in his heart. It seemed that this time, he had a bet right.

"I'm good at it, the general has seen it just now." Song Qingshan said sincerely: "What I am good at is imitation. I can imitate the characteristics of the object through observation and use it."

Hu You nodded. He thought to himself that this is still a genius, and rats have their own value. Keeping such a person by your side may be of great use in the future.

Hu You said: "Good ability, but you didn't perform well just now."

Song Qingshan nodded generously and admitted: "I was negligent just now, so I will definitely not have to make the same mistake in the future."

"Okay." Hu You raised his hand and said, "You should be my aide for the time being."

With Song Qingshan's joining, a huge breakthrough was immediately made in intelligence work. Since we knew that Zhou Long wanted to fight, things would be much easier.

With Hu You's order, the troops continued to advance. Although the soldiers of the ** regiment have only fought once so far, they are not panicked when marching. Hu You's half a year of training is not just a play. What aspects should be paid attention to when marching? The soldiers of the ** regiment are even more clear than some old birds.

"Sir, two kilometers ahead are the ambush seats set up by Zhou Longzheng." Song Qingshan reported to Hu Youhui.

"Is that hill?" Hu You looked at it and looked back: "The place you chose is good, and this area is still quite like it. Did you choose?"

Song Qingshan shook his head and said, "This is what Zhou Longzheng chose. In fact, it is not a choice. When we rob, we are mostly in this area. However, there are more people who are moving too much this time."

Hu You nodded and asked, "Zhou Longzheng has been out of here this time."

Song Qingshan said: "Yes, there are more than 3,800 people from the Rock Valley, all of them are dispatched. Zhou Longzheng said that this time I will come with you to have a tough time."

"Hmph" Hu You said coldly and gestured to the messenger. The messenger left without saying a word.

Song Qingshan could see clearly on the side and knew that Hu You made arrangements in the morning. Otherwise, it would be impossible that the messenger could understand what to do next without saying a word or a gesture.

Song Qingshan's guess was correct, but not completely correct. Although Hu You did not speak, the gesture he made already contained specific commands.

Hu You learned this move from Ximen Yufeng. In the battle of Qingfeng Town, Ximen Yufeng's detailed command method made Hu You very interested. When he was in Fengyuan, he would ask Ximen Yufeng or Twelve Golden Feng to learn this knowledge. Back in Qingzhou, he immediately practiced this aspect. Those who have received this aspect of training do not need to talk directly to Hu You to understand what Hu You should do.

The closer he got to the ambush, the more confused Song Qingshan was. He had just seen Hu You give orders with his own eyes, and he did not find any substantial changes in the army. Overall, it was similar to the previous formation, and the only change seemed to be more scattered than before.

"Is Hu You trying to deliberately confuse the enemy, or are these troops themselves mobs and unable to get on the table? If that's the case, what about the other troops? They are about to enter the battle position, why haven't they appeared yet? Could it be that Hu You rely on these two thousand real soldiers dressed like beggars to fight Zhou Longzheng?" There were too many questions, and Song Qingshan thought of the head-on violence, but he couldn't even understand what Hu You meant.

Song Qingshan thought of the head-on violence, and Zhou Longzheng was much happier than him. Zhou Longzheng and the third brother were ambushing under the Tuling Ridge, looking at Hu You's troops with excitement, slowly approaching their ambush. Watching the enemy kicking into the death path he designed step by step, Zhou Longzheng felt that the blood in his body was about to burn.

The third brother wiped his ghost-headed sword and said to me without a sharp look: "I'll just say that Hu You is a famous person. Boss, look, their teams are dispersed like that, and they cannot have any protective effect from each other. What kind of combat power can this be? No wonder their Blizzard Legion was beaten like that by Anrong people in Qingzhou. Today, let's teach them a lesson and let the second brother see that this immortal bird is nothing great."

"Old 2 is just too careful." Zhou Long nodded in agreement, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Song Qingshan for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Where has Lao 2 gone?"

"Who knows, maybe he's looking for a place to hide." The third brother said indifferently. He is now determined to fight a good battle, and he's too lazy to care about other things.

Zhou Long seemed to feel something, but before he could even think about it, his attention was shifted to the battlefield. Hu You's vanguard had already entered the ambush circle, and now with his order, the battle will start.

Zhou Longzheng's hand was already raised. As long as he pressed his hand, the bandits under him would immediately shoot thousands of arrows, giving Hu You's troops the first wave of attack.

However, Zhou Longzheng raised his hand for almost a minute, but he couldn't hold it down because it was not the time yet.

Hu You's people entered the ambush circle, but they did not enter the distance between the arrow 300 steps. The two thousand beggars didn't know what they were thinking. The boss was spinning 350 steps away, but he just didn't come in. He hated Zhou Long's forehand was numb.

"Boss, what are you waiting for? Let's fight?" The third brother was so anxious that he was sweating. The enemy was already at the edge of the knife, and it felt uncomfortable to look at it like this.

"Wait, wait a little longer. Wait until they enter the range of arrow killing." Zhou Long said with his hand. He raised his hand, but he couldn't let it go. The bandits have no culture, and they don't care why you put down your hand. As long as you put it down, you will start fighting.
