Chapter 588

Zhang Liang, following behind Qin Mu, felt sluggish; he estimated that the blows he had received today exceeded all those he had ever received before.

Those fifty ten-thousand-man commanders were no less capable than him, and those five minor generals looked even stronger than him!

Just then, Zhao Yun suddenly spoke.

"My lord, Zilong has discovered someone with the talent of a commander among these five hundred thousand men. I wonder if you would Wu Li Ke to see him?"

This could not help but arouse Qin Mu's curiosity. A commander's talent?

In the small region of Bashu, there was actually someone who could catch Zhao Yun's eye as a commander?

Qin Mu knew that Zhao Yun possessed memories from his life during the Three Kingdoms period; if even he praised someone, then...

It couldn't possibly be much worse at commanding troops than Master Zhuge Liang, could it?

"Oh, is that so? Then what is his name?"

"Han Xin!"

"Han Xin."

"Han Xin!" Qin Mu suddenly repeated, his eyes revealing indescribable surprise.

Zhang Liang, standing to the side, was a bit stunned; it was the first time he had seen his lord lose his composure Wu Li Ke this.

Not to mention Zhang Liang, even Zhao Yun and Wei Zhuang felt a bit stunned; they had never seen Qin Mu so surprised either.

"Bring him over, I want to see him." Qin Mu said after calming his inner self.

Soon, Han Xin was brought over, and Qin Mu asked after seeing the slightly handsome Han Xin.

"Are you Han Xin from Huaiyin County, Sishui Commandery?" Qin Mu's voice sounded somewhat excited and trembling.

Even though he tried his best to suppress himself, he couldn't help it; there was no way around it, Han Xin was truly a military talent.

It is well known that Han Xin's ability to command troops is the more the better; if it really was Han Xin, Qin Mu would likely never lack generals when conquering the world.

"Yes, this commoner is indeed from Huaiyin County, Sishui Commandery." Han Xin was stunned for a moment, then said with some strange mixed emotions.

The others only felt it was strange, but Qin Mu felt that it was filled with bitterness, unwillingness, and a very subtle hatred!

"Why did you come to Bashu?" Qin Mu's mouth curled up slightly; it was confirmed, this was that Han Xin!

And he was in his prime!

It is well known that before Han Xin suffered the humiliation of crawling between someone's legs, he was still muddled; only after suffering that humiliation did he begin to slowly awaken!

"Because there was no way forward there, I traveled all the way to Bashu, and upon hearing there was recruitment, I wanted to come and realize my ambitions!" Han Xin's voice trembled slightly; the others only felt it was strange, but only Qin Mu knew.

That kind of thing, the humiliation of crawling between legs, still affected his character!

Just at this moment, Qin Mu said something that surprised everyone.

"Crawl through my legs."

Qin Mu spread his legs and stared at Han Xin with a serious face.

"My lord, this..." Zhao Yun said with some hesitation; at this moment, all the new recruits were looking over.

Zhang Liang even walked to Qin Mu's side, leaned over, and whispered.

"My lord, all the new recruits are watching; humiliating him Wu Li Ke this will likely have a significant impact."

Zhang Liang felt that perhaps this person named Han Xin had bullied Qin Mu long ago, which was why he was so excited upon hearing Han Xin's name, and now he was telling him to crawl through his legs.

However, Qin Mu ignored Zhang Liang's persuasion and continued to stare at Han Xin.

Han Xin was stunned on the spot, then seeing Qin Mu staring at him, he knew that he probably had no choice but to crawl!

Thinking of this, the hatred in Han Xin's heart couldn't help but expand once more, but he still endured it; he secretly swore in his heart that one day, he would appear before everyone in glory.

And then pay all of this back tenfold!

Qin Mu watched Han Xin, who was trembling all over and slowly kneeling and crawling on the ground; he himself felt some reluctance, but if he let him stand up just Wu Li Ke that, all his previous efforts would be wasted.

Zhang Liang, who was to the side, had just stepped forward to continue persuading him, but was stopped by Qin Mu's hand.

Wei Zhuang, next to him, frowned even more tightly, but he didn't stop him; he trusted Qin Mu, but he couldn't guess the reason for Qin Mu's actions.

Finally, Han Xin crawled on his knees to Qin Mu's front; he took a long breath and then continued to crawl forward.

At this moment, Zhang Liang had already turned his head and closed his eyes; he couldn't bear to watch this scene.

Zhao Yun and Wei Zhuang frowned even more; the rule in Bashu of not kneeling to heaven or earth was set by Qin Mu, so why was he now making someone kneel to him?

And even making him crawl through his legs to humiliate him?

Just at this moment, Qin Mu squatted down and helped Han Xin up.

The originally stubborn Han Xin didn't want to get up, wanting to just crawl through on his knees, but Qin Mu's strength was simply too great.

Finally, Han Xin was lifted up by Qin Mu.

Qin Mu, having helped Han Xin up, laughed loudly and said "good" three times.

"Hahahaha, good, good, truly too good."

Qin Mu looked at the slightly stubborn and also somewhat bewildered Han Xin and continued.

"As expected of someone I value, to be able to endure even this kind of humiliation; with this, I can rest assured in handing all five hundred thousand new recruits into your hands!"

"This time, when the Qin Army attacks the city, you will serve as the commander-in-chief; do you have the confidence?"

After Qin Mu finished speaking, Zhang Liang was directly shocked; he really hadn't expected his lord to test people in this way.

He was just about to say that this matter was not allowed, it was too frivolous, but soon Zhang Liang reacted.

Defending a city requires composure, because the attackers will try every possible way to trick you into leaving the city to meet the enemy; only in this way will they have a greater chance of winning.

This was also the reason why Zhang Liang said at least thirty thousand, no, fifty thousand people would die.

Because he felt that the new recruits had never fought a war and it would be difficult for them to fully obey military orders, and without a qualified commander, they would definitely be tricked out of the city by the enemy and then wiped out by the tens of thousands!

Only after the first painful lesson would they learn to be obedient and defend the city, waiting for the Qin Army to retreat in defeat.

But now, this person could perform the act of crawling through someone's legs in front of all the soldiers, without even asking for the reason.

Clearly, he would not be tempted by the enemy's treacherous schemes; at this moment, Zhang Liang had to admire Qin Mu's wisdom.

He even discovered that his lord seemed to be very knowledgeable in military matters as well!

Not to mention how Zhang Liang thought about it, at this moment Han Xin was first bewildered, and then all sorts of emotions appeared on him.

A scholar dies for one who understands him; his lord trusted him so much, and just because of one action of his, gave him such great authority.

At this moment, Han Xin wanted to cry; he finally had a future!

Han Xin knelt on one knee directly on the ground, nodded forcefully, and said.

"This subordinate will definitely not fail the lord's trust!"

Qin Mu saw this and smiled with satisfaction, then said again.

"Rest assured, Han Xin, there will definitely be an opportunity to attack Huaiyin County, Sishui Commandery in the future; at that time, the one leading the army will definitely be you."

Qin Mu's words once again touched Han Xin; if there were a loyalty rating, Han Xin's loyalty at this moment would likely have reached ninety-nine percent!

And it was even slowly approaching one hundred percent!

"Han Xin thanks the lord; Han Xin is willing to fight for the lord for his whole life!" Han Xin said forcefully, word by word.

At this time, the soldiers nearby were all envious to the point of being sour, but not a single one was jealous.

Because they knew that Han Xin truly had the talent of a commander; in many things, they all admired Han Xin, at least they wouldn't have endured the humiliation of crawling between legs so calmly.

Perhaps others would think he was weak, but that was for people outside of Bashu!

Every Bashu person, when learning to read, was taught that a person must endure what others cannot endure and do what others cannot do; only then can one become strong!

Many people know this, but few can do it, and those who do, without exception, are all famous people!

"Hahahaha, good, now you let Zhao Yun and Wei Zhuang take you to get familiar with things first; two days later I will find you for a meeting!" Time passed in a hurry, and soon two days passed, the Qin Army was getting closer and closer, and a great battle was on the verge of breaking out!
