Chapter 77
Plus their temperament, they didn't look like a Yellow Turban army composed of ordinary common people; they were all thugs.
Even if some were coerced by Wang San at the beginning.
But they had become real thieves in the subsequent actions.
They deserved to die.
"Many thanks to you all for your help! Xu Chu of the Xu family village, pays respects! May I ask who you all are?"
At this time, Xu Chu had already returned, joined his father and brothers, led the crowd to pay respects to Su Xuan and others, and asked.
"General of the Household who Subdues the Rebels, Su Xuan, has met the brave Xu!"
Su Xuan smiled and returned the bow: "Suppressing rebels is the task of our government army, so there is no need to thank me."
"Speaking of which, half of the reason for my trip is to find you, brave man."
"I entered Peiguo Qiaoxian and heard that Xu Chu of Qiaoxian has natural divine strength and extraordinary bravery. Seeing it today, it is indeed so!"
"You have divine strength that can pull nine cows, and you have the cultivation of the middle stage of Dan Strength. You must be an extraordinary person. Are you willing to join my command, suppress the rebellion, build merits, and bring honor to your ancestors?"
At his status, there was no need to beat around the bush. Given the status gap between him and Xu Chu, he just recruited him directly.
He had confidence in himself.
He could always persuade Xu Chu.
"This..."
Hearing this, Xu Chu looked back at his family and fellow villagers with a troubled face and was about to refuse.
Because he was worried that if he left, his family would be taken advantage of by thieves.
"Don't be impatient!"
Seeing this, Xu's father quickly stopped him, then stepped forward and bowed to Su Xuan: "It is the honor of my dog son that General Su can look up to him."
"However, this is not a suitable place to talk. The General is the benefactor of our Xu family village. Why not follow us into the village for a chat? We can also fulfill the duties of a host and thank the General for his kindness."
"Afterwards, I will definitely give the General a satisfactory answer, how about it?"
He had clearly heard of Su Xuan's name.
This was why he stopped Xu Chu.
"Oh? Very well! Then I will trouble you, old man! Please!"
Su Xuan did not refuse, immediately agreed, and took Old Dian Wei, Huang Zhong, Xi Zhicai, and others into the village.
As for the Black Armor Army, they were stationed outside the village by Jia Wu and did not enter.
Soon, Su Xuan and the others were seated under the warm hospitality of the Xu family village.
A banquet, host and guest enjoyed themselves.
During the banquet,
Xu's father found an opportunity to call his two sons alone.
He looked at Xu Chu and said: "If I am not mistaken, this Su Xuan should be that Su Xuan, Su Su Boyuan, from Nanyang!"
"Hmm?"
Before Xu Chu could speak, Xu Ding on the side spoke first: "Is it that General of the Household Su who has made repeated military merits and was rewarded and appointed three times in a month?"
Hearing this, Xu Chu's eyes flashed, full of excitement.
So it was him.
"Not bad!"
Xu's father nodded and looked at Xu Chu: "This person is a young hero, both civil and military, and is valued by His Majesty, promoted repeatedly."
"He has made repeated military merits, and his future is limitless."
"It is a rare opportunity for you, Zhongkang, and for the Xu family to be valued by such a person."
"I heard that this General Su does not value family status. If you can join his command, you will definitely be reused."
"What else does my son have to hesitate about?"
"This..."
Hearing this, Xu Chu said with some trouble: "It's not that I'm unwilling, but I'm worried about the safety of my family!"
"There are rebellions everywhere now. If I join General Su's command, I will definitely have to leave the Xu family village. How can you let me worry about my family?"
"Something like Wang San's incident might not happen again."
The government army nearby was not a climate.
Su Xuan and the others could not stay here for long.
"You are confused!"
Hearing this, Xu's father scolded: "Can't we survive without you at home?"
"Are your father and your eldest brother dead?"
"Moreover, the Yellow Turbans in General Su's hometown of Nanyang have basically been pacified. If you join General Su's command, our Xu family village can completely migrate to Dengxian, Nanyang. Do you still need to worry about safety?"
"I believe that after you join, as long as you mention it, General Su will definitely arrange all these things. Do you still need to worry?"
He was a person who did great things.
Could he not know how to appease people's hearts?
"That's true!"
Hearing this, Xu Chu suddenly realized, but then asked worriedly: "However, will the fellow villagers of the Xu family village all be willing to migrate with us? Can't be, right?"
"Why not?"
Xu's father glared at Xu Chu and scolded: "I am one of the three elders of the Xu family village, and also the head of the Xu clan. Can't I handle this little thing?"
"Furthermore, it concerns the future of our Xu family. If there are really people who are unwilling, then let them stay here!"
"We won't delay anyone."
In order to bring honor to one's ancestors, how can one be hesitant?
For ordinary people, even if they want to stick to them, they don't have the opportunity, and others are not willing to accept them.
Su Xuan was the opportunity for the Xu family. How could they miss it?
Since Xu's father had said so much, what else could Xu Chu say? He immediately nodded and said: "Good! I will go and tell General Su now."
"Ha! That's right!"
Hearing this, Xu's father patted Xu Chu on the shoulder with satisfaction: "Go and venture with peace of mind. You don't need to worry about home."
Afterwards, everything went smoothly.
"Thanks to the General's appreciation, Xu Chu is willing to join General Su's command and recognize the General as my lord!"
When Su Xuan saw Xu Chu take the initiative to choose to join his command.
Su Xuan was overjoyed, stood up to help Xu Chu up, and said happily: "Haha! Zhongkang, please rise quickly. To have Zhongkang's help, I am overjoyed!"
"From now on, you will be a Military Marquis under my command, temporarily serving as my guard. After you have made enough merits, I will continue to promote you!"
"Actually, with your ability, Zhongkang, being a Military Military Sima or even a Captain is enough!"
"Not at all!"
Hearing this, Xu Chu quickly bowed in thanks: "To be valued by the Lord, Xu Chu is already grateful. The position doesn't matter; I can do anything."
Being a Military Marquis right from the start was already very good.
As for being a Captain or something, Xu Chu knew that this required military merit, and ability alone was not enough.
Xu's father and others also had faces full of joy.
Their Xu family had finally produced a person.
In the future, it would depend on how far Xu Chu could go under Su Xuan's command.
Afterwards, Xu Chu took the initiative to tell Su Xuan his worries and his hope that the people of the Xu family village could migrate to Su Xuan's hometown, Dengxian.
"This is a good thing. Naturally, I have no reason to disagree!"
"I will let Jia Wu discuss the relocation matters with your father!"
Hearing this, Su Xuan was not angry but happy, and immediately summoned Jia Wu to discuss it with Xu's father.
He wished that the civil and military officials under his command would all move their families to his hometown.
To avoid things like Xu Shu in the history of the previous life.
In the future, when the warlords rise, there will not be too many scruples between the warlords.
It's better to move early.
