Chapter 69

Therefore, it was not without reason that he claimed to be a descendant of the military strategist Sun Wu.

Similarly, this was one of the reasons why Zhu Jun valued Sun Sun Jian and was willing to promote him.

More than ten minutes later,

The battle was basically over. General Huangfu Song saw that Su Xuan was still surrounding more than 2,000 Yellow Turban Warriors who had not surrendered.

He couldn't help but walk over and ask: "Su Boyuan! What's the situation on your side? Are these Yellow Turban soldiers unwilling to surrender? Why not kill them?"

What kind of standoff is this?

"My lord! We're here! We succeeded!"

At this time, Jia San and Jia Wu brought Li Yi and the others over to report.

Not far away, there were more than a thousand Yellow Turban Warriors who had already disarmed and removed their Yellow Turbans, following along, being received by Old Dian Wei's men and temporarily detained.

"Oh?"

Su Xuan looked back upon hearing this and nodded with satisfaction: "Very good! This side is also handed over to you!"

Then, Su Xuan turned to look at General Huangfu Song with an apologetic look and bowed: "Sorry! General General Huangfu! I have been rude!"

"It's nothing! It seems you are planning to subdue these Yellow Turban Warriors?"

General Huangfu Song waved his hand. At this time, he also recognized that these appeared to be the true elite under Bo Cai, the Yellow Turban Warriors.

These soldiers had caused them a lot of trouble in the past.

It could be said that the reason they were beaten back by Bo Cai and trapped in Changshe was largely due to these Yellow Turban Warriors.

They had put in a lot of effort.

Not to mention Su Xuan, even he couldn't help but feel envious.

These Yellow Turban Warriors were all good seedlings!

If trained well for a year or half a year, they would definitely reach the standard of triggering and forming a military formation.

"That's right!"

Su Xuan nodded affirmatively and replied generously: "Didn't His Majesty grant me the authority to command 10,000 troops?"

"But I only have my original 3,000 iron cavalry, and I did surrender a batch of Yellow Turban soldiers in Nanyang, who are being trained as new recruits;"

"But I estimate they won't be able to play a role in a short time and won't be able to form combat power;"

"Forcing them into my military formation would instead become a burden to my army;"

"But these Yellow Turban Warriors are different. They seem to have been cultivated with special secret techniques and secret medicines. Although they are all consumables and their future lifespans will inevitably be greatly reduced, they can quickly form combat power and solve my problem of insufficient troops."

"I hope General General Huangfu can grant permission."

Although Su Xuan, as an independent guest army, had captured these prisoners himself.

He could have ignored General Huangfu Song's opinion.

But it was better to be polite, so as not to offend General Huangfu Song and have him make things difficult for him in the future.

"So that's it!"

Sure enough, General Huangfu Song heard Su Xuan's explanation, saw his attitude, nodded with satisfaction, and replied with a smile: "I understand. Since you captured them, it is naturally up to you to handle them;"

"Speaking of which, this time I must thank you, Su Boyuan, for coming to the rescue in time; otherwise, we really wouldn't have known what to do?"

"Not at all!"

Su Xuan shook his head and said: "Even without me, with the vision of you and General Zhu Jun, you would definitely have thought of a similar plan to defeat Bo Cai's army;"

"In the end, Bo Cai's flaw this time was too big and he was too careless."

Perhaps he had won too many times in a row and got carried away!

This story tells Su Xuan himself that even if he wins consecutive great victories in the future, he must remain calm and composed and not get carried away.

Otherwise, the day of defeat and destruction will not be far away.

Today, Bo Cai commanded 400,000 troops and was burned away by a fire;

In the history of the previous life, in the future, Boss Cao commanded troops and was defeated, and was also burned away by a fire.

These are all lessons written in blood!

"Su Boyuan is too modest!"

General Huangfu Song nodded, and his favor for Su Xuan increased even more.

This kid is not bad!

Even after achieving consecutive great victories and receiving consecutive promotions, he didn't get carried away.

This is the quality of a famous general.

Even, it can be said that this kid can already be considered a famous general.

It's just that the number of troops he commands is still too small, and he hasn't mastered the experience of large-scale army operations.

This is the only thing Su Xuan currently lacks.

"Brother Su Boyuan! Long admired! Long admired! I am Cavalry Commandant Cao Cao, Cao Mengde. Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!"

At this time, Cao Cao walked over with a smile, bowing to Su Xuan repeatedly to greet him.

There was no more of the depression from having his merit snatched earlier.

It must be said that Boss Cao can bend and stretch, and his acting skills are superb.

Of course, he really didn't resent Su Xuan or anything, and he still had the idea of befriending Su Xuan.

If he could learn some military formation and training methods from Su Xuan along the way, that would be even better.

He, Cao Cao, likes to make friends.

"Uh..."

Su Xuan couldn't stand Cao Cao's enthusiastic appearance, but he still bowed and returned the greeting with a smile: "Brother Cao, hello! I have long heard of your great name!"

"I have also heard of your deeds of punishing the treacherous and evil with the five-colored sticks when you were the Northern Commandant of Luoyang."

At the same time, Su Xuan also secretly sized up Cao Cao a few times.

He thought: "This is Boss Cao!"

His skin was slightly dark, and he was indeed not tall, only about 1.65 meters.

Far from Su Xuan's 1.85 meters.

Standing in front of Su Xuan, he was more than a head shorter.

However, his facial features were quite good, belonging to the kind that is quite dignified and carries a trace of dominance.

His beard was very dense.

"Oh?"

Cao Cao heard Su Xuan's words and laughed unexpectedly: "Haha! I didn't expect Brother Su Boyuan to know about this!"

"That was just something done when I was young and hot-blooded, not worth mentioning."

Afterwards, Cao Cao pulled Su Xuan to chat enthusiastically.

General Huangfu Song, who was on the side, couldn't help but shake his head.

This Cao Cao was too noisy.

Su Xuan could only cope while watching Li Yi and the others persuade the Yellow Turban Warriors to surrender and subdue them.

With the previous experience and those Yellow Turban Warriors who had been persuaded to surrender and subdued, the work of subduing the Yellow Turban Warriors here was much easier.

It was done in just over ten minutes.

Thus, these nearly four thousand surviving Yellow Turban Warriors were all taken into Su Xuan's pocket.

Cao Cao, General Huangfu Song, and others were all envious.

After the battlefield was cleaned up, Su Xuan and his troops were invited into Changshe City to attend the victory banquet.

That day, General Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Su Xuan, and others jointly wrote a memorial to the imperial court.

Su Xuan also secretly sent secret guards to Luoyang to notify Jia Yi to go to Zhang Rang's side and send a generous gift.

Mainly based on glass vessels.

Anyway, this thing was worthless in his hands; it was called glass, but it was actually just fired glass.

It's just that people in this era didn't understand it at all and couldn't see the difference.

It was perfectly fine to treat it as a treasure!

In addition, Su Xuan thought for a moment and sent people to Yingyin City to inform Xun Shuang and the others of this good news.

One was to tell him that he had already fulfilled the agreement, so his marriage to Xun Cai should be settled.

Second, he hoped that Xun Shuang would exert some effort as promised to help him strive for a better reward.

The next day,

General Huangfu Song and the others didn't continue to stay in Changshe City and were preparing to split their troops to attack; after all, there were still many Yellow Turban armies in Yanzhou and Yuzhou waiting for them to wipe out.
