"That means it is not versatile now?" Chen Gong nodded and said, "What level can the strength reach?" "What level is it? The will distorts reality, transcends death, and the collective strength is strengthened." Mao said with a little doubt. Huo Qi said, "There is no lack of determination or will, and the quality is up to standard. As long as you don't die after the war, you will have either a military soul or three talents." "Can you guarantee immortality?" Chen Gong asked curiously. "I don't know, but even if you are immortal, without the relative protection of the military soul, you will be seriously damaged unless you truly complete the transcendence." Mao said coldly, "If you can truly complete the transcendence, even if you leave the battlefield, If there is a decline, they will also have this hidden effect. " Chen Gong nodded, which is understandable. By the way, Chen Gong also felt that if a boss of Mao's level has worked hard for so many years, he will not be able to do this. If the level is not reached, then it is better to commit suicide immediately. "This is no longer an estimate, right? Don't tell me, you haven't verified it?" Chen Gong asked, looking at Mao's thoughtful expression. "Huh, but it's not a complete verification. It can only be said that it has entered a critical state." Mao said unhappily, "You can ask me if there is anything else. I also want to see the complete state. It is said to be able to know the before and after." "What is Chen Gongtai like now?" Chen Gong waved his hand and said, "I don't dare to offend him too much. After all, we still have to work together. If we continue like this, we will probably not even be able to become comrades." In fact, in the current situation, you should use whatever you have. Hiding it is not good for everyone. After all, it is no longer just for personal struggle. " "We all know these, but we don't use the power of others. , why put it out for others to spy on? When it is time to fight, we will naturally do our best. Since national interests and personal interests are common, we also know what to do." Mao looked at Chen Gong coldly. Chen Gong didn't say anything. It was obvious that he was destined to be different from Mao and others from the beginning. In other words, since the rebellion, they could not truly live in peace. There was still some gap in their concepts. Yes, but with the huge benefits of external expansion, everyone can find a suitable position for themselves. However, this kind of mutual cooperation does not mean closeness. It just forms a combination of interests and allows them to watch each other for the greater benefit in the future. As for other things, it is unlikely in itself. After all, they are not saints. Mao and Chen Gong broke up on bad terms. Chen Gong watched Mao leave. He knew very well that when they meet again tomorrow, they will still be comrades who watch each other, but there is an unbridgeable rift in their concepts. They cannot say who is right and who is wrong. It's hard to tell what's right or wrong about this kind of question. You have all kinds of reasons, and I have all kinds of reasons. This is how it is. Instead of hoping that both parties can reach an agreement, it is better to come up with irresistible conditions like Chen Zichuan and the power to overwhelm the world, and then use the strongest As a writer, he calls for peace. "Sure enough, I'm still too weak. If I can defeat these people, my ideas should also be recognized." After Chen Gong watched Mao leave, he couldn't help but sigh, "Maybe I can defeat those people. It's a pity that they can't defeat Chen Zichuan." The next day, Mao and Chen Gong were still communicating with each other as before, and even Sima Yi couldn't see the conflict of ideas between them. "Let's march on. We have rested for a day. We will not carry out forced marches for the rest of the journey. We will recover our strength as much as possible. We are not far from the Khyber Pass." Zhang Liao stood on the commanding platform and announced loudly. road. Yes, a lot of previous discussions made the Han army understand the current situation. Now they must unify command and dispatch and twist into a rope to fight. Only then can they display stronger combat effectiveness in the Khyber Pass. . However, no matter what, there are tens of thousands of people in the Han Dynasty. Although this scale is not large, it is not at the level that an ordinary army commander can command. As for Chen Gong, come on, his IQ is very high, but this guy is In the military, if you want to say that it is indeed possible to command an army, but to say that it is possible to command tens of thousands of soldiers and exert a combat effectiveness that exceeds the sum of a single legion, just sleep on it, it is simply impossible. In the same way, the same is true for Mao. Both of them are among the few civil servants who can actually lead troops, and their skills are also good. However, neither side is able to command several legions. It is difficult to determine the situation in the Khyber Pass through head-on confrontation with strong armies. After getting cheap, it is very important to have an excellent commander. However, none of the generals present have ever been a commander. Even if Cao Ren, Cao Cao¡¯s right-hand man, exists, because Cao Cao has been so unlucky in this life, he has never had the opportunity to be exposed to the level of large-scale command. As for the next potential Cao Zhen, Guo Huai and so on?Now no one dares to throw him up as a commander. In the end, there were only two candidates, Sima Yi and Zhang Liao. Gao Lan gave up on his own. Wei Yan wanted to speak out, but after weighing the situation, he felt that the responsibility was a bit heavy, so he was forced to give up. As for a strong general like Lu Bu, Chen Gong gave up after taking a quick look at it. He was not stupid. Lu Bu was fine with leading troops to charge into battle, but if he were to take command, wouldn't he be digging a hole for himself? The most suitable ones were Sima Yi and Zhang Liao. However, after a group of people discussed it, they excluded Sima Yi. Sima Yi was young, had a gloomy look, and could not be said to be rich in experience. In comparison, Zhang Liao was also a man who had led the Bingzhou Army. , I still have some experience. So Zhang Liao was pushed to the shelf, and when he took this job, Zhang Liao made it clear that he had never been a commander of a large army, and he had never shown any talent in this aspect. Thanks to everyone's support, when the time comes, he Give it your best shot. Zhang Liao's words are not nonsense. In fact, he is indeed inexperienced. He was pushed to this position only because the current situation requires one person to mediate and manage, and everyone present is unqualified, so he was pulled out of the dwarfs. A tall one. Zhang Liao deeply felt that he was the tall one among a group of dwarfs, but due to the constraints of the situation, he had to step forward and take over the task. Compared with others, Zhang Liao was more cautious in dealing with people, but he was cautious and courageous at the same time. Soul, so after taking over this matter, he worked hard to use his strength to do as well as possible. " I hope I won't make any big mistakes. Since I took over this position, I have to do the same thing. ¡¿Zhang Liao looked at the soldiers who had begun to move out of the camp, and silently made up his mind. People are forced out. If you don't force yourself, who knows how strong you are. Chen Gong, Mao and Sima Yi watched from another direction as Zhang Liao mobilized the army and began to march towards Khyber. They all nodded silently. In any case, Zhang Liao at least did not cause such a confusing situation when sending troops. A helpless thing. "It's not bad. Regardless of whether he has practiced before or not, General Zhang at least seems to be serious and has no major mistakes." Mao looked at Zhang Liao's dispatch with some satisfaction. Mao was originally a little dissatisfied with the selection of commanders. , his complexion has improved a lot now. Anyway, at least the one he selected is really useful. "At least in my opinion, Wen Yuan is indeed more suitable than General Cao." Chen Gong watched Zhang Liao's command gradually become more flexible from the stiffness at the beginning, and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Although the opportunity was indeed given by him, It was earned through hard work, but to be able to perform to this extent, Zhang Liao's own talent seems to be very good. Mao glanced at Chen Gong, then silently withdrew his gaze. In terms of his current performance, Zhang Liao was indeed better than Cao Ren. As for Sima Yi, he was stroking his chin and looking at Zhang Liao not far away. This person said Maybe it's just a matter of bad luck. "Wenyuan, how do you feel?" Gao Shun asked Zhang Liao casually as he rode through. "I don't know. Anyway, I feel a lot of pressure. I have no way of imagining how Governor Zhou could so easily carry the life and death of hundreds of thousands of troops and the lives and deaths of the people in the states behind him on his shoulders. I feel a little confused just standing in this position now. Such pressure." Zhang Liao said somewhat tiredly. Now he is just an ordinary middle-aged man who has no idea of ??his own potential. "Being tired means you are attentive, and being stressed means you know how heavy your responsibilities are." When Gao Lan came over, he heard the conversation between Zhang Liao and Gao Shun and explained. "Don't you know how heavy the responsibility is?" Zhang Liao said helplessly, "These are tens of thousands of soldiers. Counting their elite level, this scale is enough to affect the strategic layout of the Han Dynasty. I am really under great pressure now. , Obviously I am just a nobody, why do I have to bear such heavy pressure? You must know that before today, I have not even officially commanded 15,000 people. At most, I just led them to charge. " " Do it well, I was frustrated before. When I was here, I said that only those who can feel the weight of their responsibilities can be entrusted with important tasks. Only those who understand what they are doing and the meaning of doing it will do their best. " Gao Lan comforted him, "Obviously, your current state is very consistent with Ju Gong's original words." Zhang Liao was silent after hearing this, and then sighed softly, "Indeed, you know my first reaction when I took this matter. What is it?" Zhang Liao then said with a wry smile, "My first reaction was that this matter was too important and I didn't dare to take it. After I found out that I couldn't push it, my thought became, it must not be done. Screw it, even if I screw it up, I can¡¯t screw it up.¡±
