Chapter 54: A Sudden Marriage

Regarding Liu Feng's words, Chen Da understood and nodded: "It's less bloody." ”

"What do you think I'll pull this army out to suppress the bandits?" Liu Feng asked the question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.

Chen Da pondered for a moment when he heard this, but finally shook his head and said: "Under normal circumstances, it is indeed time to see blood, and suppressing bandits is the best way." But at present, there are no small bandits in Xinye, and some are large water thieves. If you face a large number of water thieves, I am afraid that the loss will be not small. The lieutenant has spent so much effort to train this group of soldiers, and any losses will be extremely heavy. ”

Liu Feng thought about it and couldn't help but fall silent.

Indeed, as Chen Da said, he spent so much time, energy, and money to train this group of soldiers, and any loss would be extremely heavy.

What's more, when Xinding first sees blood, the losses will be heavy. In this case, it is actually necessary to find a mountain bandit of less than 100 to train the army.

But now there are no small bandits in Xinye, only in Fancheng and Xinye are some large bandits, and in the Yangtze River area, because of the boundary between the north and the south, there are some large bandits left.

These water thieves are four or five hundred small, and seven or eight hundred are large. I can't bite it.

It seems that we have to find a way to dispel the fear of the soldiers before they see blood, so that they will not panic even when they are really swords. to pull out and fight those water thieves.

In this way, we can not only achieve the goal of military training, but also further reduce our own losses.

But it's hard to think of such a solution. Liu Feng didn't have this kind of means in his heart.

Listening to Chen Da's tone, he was helpless, Liu Feng couldn't help but stop and didn't say anything more about this question.

After a moment of silence, three soldiers walked in with delicious meals in their hands. These meals were placed on the case in front of Liu Feng and the others.

After the soldiers put it away, Liu Feng picked up the chopsticks and pointed them at Chen Da, Deng Ai said with a smile: "Dinner." ”

Soon after, Chen Da ran out first, took his leave, and left. After Chen Da left, Liu Feng put down his chopsticks, and saw that Deng Ai was almost finished, so he asked the soldiers to withdraw their meals.

After sitting for a while, Deng Ai, who was silent and didn't waste saliva at all, glanced at Liu Feng and looked at Wei Wuji's art of war, which he had only seen half of before.

Liu Feng also fell into deep thought, how can he achieve the courage to train the soldiers, so that the soldiers are not afraid of the sword soldiers in the first battle?

Suddenly, Liu Feng had a flash of inspiration in his mind, but he remembered a record in Han Feizi, Wu Qi, as a general, had personally sucked wounds and pus for the soldiers.

In the end, Han Feizi commented that Wu Qi's intentions were just to let the soldiers do their best.

This is biased, although Wu Qi did this with a utilitarian heart, he did it. Among the generals throughout the ages, there are a few who can personally suck the wounds of the soldiers like Wu Qi. Not to mention a wound with pus.

"Maybe you can use this example to train your troops." Liu Feng was overjoyed, but he calmed himself down, after all, it was just an idea, and the specific method needed to be added a little bit.

"Lord Captain, there is a guard outside the camp gate who asks to see him, claiming to have been sent by his wife." A sudden voice interrupted Liu Feng's thoughts.

Liu Feng looked up and saw a young soldier standing in front of him with his fists clenched.

"Call him in." Liu Feng said without hesitation.

"No." The soldier answered, turned and walked out.

Soon the soldier walked in with a man dressed as a guard, who was carrying a package on his back.

"Major General." The person who came saluted Liu Feng and called him a young general.

"Brought Madame's letter?" Liu Feng glanced at the package on the person who came and asked.

In the past three or four months, Liu Feng has not returned to Xinye once, but he often maintains correspondence with Gan, and from time to time tells Gan about some military situations.

"Yes." The visitor nodded, untied the package on his back, and handed it to Liu Feng.

"Take him down to rest." Liu Feng took the package and turned his head to the soldier who had just come in with this escort.

"No." The soldier nodded, and walked down with the guard.

I thought it was just an ordinary letter this time, just some common words. But after opening the package and unfolding the bamboo slips, Liu Feng's face gradually became dignified, as well as a little helpless.

There were no major incidents, and there were no important changes.

However, for Liu Feng himself, it can't be ignored.

Gan wants to choose a daughter-in-law for him, and several families have been listed.

Although Gan did not choose a daughter-in-law for him before, after all, the ancients could marry a wife at the age of thirteen, and he is already eighteen years old, which belongs to the older youth.

However, the first few times Liu Feng politely refused for various reasons, and he was in a place of suspicion, so how could he have any intention of taking relatives. Even the rings around him are included in the room because the days have been long and because the time has come.

However, Liu Feng knew that this time he couldn't shirk it anymore.

From the above, almost everyone can see that Gan's determination this time, one is Kuai Liang's daughter Kuai Ling, thirteen years old. The two brothers Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue were important advisers of Liu Biao's rule of Jingzhou, and belonged to the first class of important ministers. The influence among the Jingzhou Shi clan is absolutely terrifying.

The other is Cai Mao's niece Cai Ying, fourteen years old. Cai's family is the largest wealthy family in Jingzhou, and his protégés are all over Jingzhou, and Cai Mao's sister is also Liu Biao's stepwife. The influence is even greater than that of the previous one.

In addition, there are two or three families, all of whom are native scholars in Jingzhou.

However, Liu Feng has been with Gan for a long time and knows Gan's temper. Although the two families above are listed first, the records are poor. Just a few words.

On the contrary, the two or three families in the back are written in great detail. Liu Feng knew at a glance that the Cai family and the women of the Kuai family had nothing to do with him, but the Gan family expressed his determination to him.

The two or three families below are the candidates for his wife.

Think about it, although his current identity is enough, General Zuo, Uncle Liu's stepson. Stepsons are morally and legally protected and have the right to inheritance. Similar status to a son-in-law.

In the eyes of the world, it is extraordinary.

But in the eyes of the two wealthy families in Jingzhou, the Kuai family and the Cai family, Liu Bei himself is a watchdog raised by Liu Biao, a cannon fodder ready to sacrifice at any time. It will not be rare at all to be the identity of General Liu Beizuo and the emperor's uncle. What's more, it is Liu Bei's stepson Liu Feng.

Even if Gan's heart is different, hoping to choose a decent wife for his son who can be relied on, it is not up to others.

Liu Feng's conditions can only choose those ordinary scholars.

Liu Feng skipped the upper part and looked directly at the end, with a sentence written on it, choosing a woman is a big deal, and I hope my son can come back to discuss with me.

It is full of solemnity and hope. Liu Feng knew that this matter could no longer be delayed. Otherwise, it will hurt Gan's heart.

"Come on, bring my dark cloud horse and go back to Xinye." Liu Feng put away the bamboo slips and shouted towards the outside of the big tent. Deng Ai raised his head and looked at Liu Feng in surprise, for the first time since March and April, he heard that Liu Feng was going to leave the barracks.

However, after looking at it, Deng Ai retracted his heart and continued to read the military book in his hand, looking focused.
