Chapter 289 Should the Grand General be given to Qu Yi? Yuan Shao: I'll take care of it!
Jizhou
Ye City
Qu Yi rode a tall white horse at the very front of the procession.
Don't ask why he rode a white horse; isn't a white horse the best way to highlight his achievements?
Following behind Qu Yi were Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, Gao Lan, and others.
The Four Pillars of Hebei?
Sorry, but in Qu Yi's eyes, they are all his younger brothers!
As for the other generals in Yuan's camp, they were even less capable.
Suddenly, Qu Yi stopped.
Wen Chou, who was behind him, almost bumped into him and angrily cursed him.
Without saying a word, Qu Yi pointed to the white horse beneath him and said:
"Wen Chou, what right do you have to speak to me like that?"
"During the Battle of Jieqiao, if I hadn't saved you, you would probably have become victims of the White Horse Cavalry's arrows!"
"you!!!"
Wen Chou was not good with words, but his iron fist was very hard.
It looked like he was about to punch Qu Yi in the face.
Yan Liang and Chunyu Qiong, who were standing nearby, quickly pulled Wen Chou aside and, after much persuasion, managed to convince him to stop.
"Humph!"
"What achievements have you made? What achievements have I made?"
"Do you dare to act arrogantly in front of this general?"
Qu Yi laughed loudly, ignoring how the generals of Yuan's camp looked at him, and rode his white horse towards the General's Mansion in a flash.
He was really looking forward to seeing what kind of reward his dear General Yuan would bestow upon him!
In the General's Mansion
Yuan Shao waited with a smile for the arrival of his generals.
Beside him, Shen Pei and Feng Ji continued to recount Qu Yi's achievements.
They're all part of the same clique, so naturally they have to praise each other a lot.
Oh right, while praising Qu Yi, we should also take the opportunity to put down the other generals in Yuan's camp.
For example, Chunyu Qiong was as timid as a mouse!
During the Battle of Jieqiao, they only knew how to guard the granary and dared not take the initiative to attack.
Yan Liang, a man of mere commoner's courage!
Wen Chou is extremely reckless!
None of them can share the burden of their lord.
Qu Yi is truly the foremost general among all the generals of Hebei!
"Gentlemen, I think what you said makes a lot of sense."
"Then what do you think I should do to reward Qu Yi in a way that matches his current achievements?"
Yuan Shao still wore that same smiling expression, making it impossible to discern his true thoughts.
"My lord, General Qu made countless contributions in the many battles that led to the defeat of Gongsun Zan. It would be a disservice to him not to bestow upon him a high-ranking general title."
"How about we ask our lord to appoint General Qu as General of the Vanguard?"
Shen Pei offered his suggestions.
Yuan Shao nodded and said:
"Qu Yi truly deserves the position of former general!"
"Then it's settled."
"Then the Japanese Duke sent an envoy to Xuchang to demand the position of General of the Vanguard from Cao Cao on behalf of Qu Yi."
"I doubt he would dare refuse me."
Shen Pei was overjoyed at the meeting.
It seems that Lord Yuan Shao did not fear Qu Yi, but rather felt that the prestigious title of General of the Vanguard was a reward Qu Yi deserved.
But what the two of them didn't know was...
When Yuan Shao said this, his fingernails were almost completely embedded in his flesh.
The intense pain made Yuan Shao constantly remember the agony of his camp being controlled by Ju Shou and his cronies.
Judging from the official system of the Han Dynasty.
The next rank above the former general is the General of Chariots and Cavalry.
The only generals above the cavalry generals are the general of the cavalry and the grand general.
In other words, if Qu Yi were to be appointed General of the Vanguard, the only difference between him and Yuan Shao, who was appointed Grand General, would be the positions of General of Chariots and Cavalry and General of the Flying Cavalry!
but.
A small leak will sink a great ship.
Yuan Shao was "happy" to reward Qu Yi handsomely.
The fighting prowess of the Vanguard Death Squad is undeniable.
With this army in place, Yuan's camp was essentially commanding a cavalry killer!
But this vanguard of suicide soldiers only obeyed Qu Yi's orders.
Yuan Shao secretly sent several trusted men to infiltrate the Vanguard Death Squad. They have already risen from common soldiers to centurions.
However, it will take some time to further master the training methods for the first suicide bombers.
Once Yuan Shao deciphers this core secret, Qu Yi will die!
Outside the General's Mansion
The sound of horses' hooves rang out.
Qu Yi strode forward and headed straight into the mansion.
His expression made it seem as if the General's Mansion was his own home.
Two doormen rushed over to stop Qu Yi.
But before the doorman could speak...
Qu Yi slapped each of the doormen hard across the face, knocking them to the ground.
Then, Qu Yi let out an extremely arrogant laugh and entered the main hall.
"General Qu has arrived. Where are the other generals?"
Shen Pei asked Qu Yi.
Qu Yi's lips curled into a smile that resembled the crooked-mouthed God of War:
"Ha, how dare those chickens and dogs compare to this general?"
Having said that, Qu Yi found a stool and sat down, then asked Yuan Shao, who was seated at the head of the table:
"My lord, what reward do you intend to give me?"
Sensing the tense atmosphere, Feng Ji spoke first before Yuan Shao could:
"General Qu, stop fooling around. You should accept whatever reward the lord gives you."
"How can one voluntarily ask one's lord for a reward?"
Qu Yi suddenly stood up and looked at Feng Ji with a puzzled expression:
"Feng Yuantu, what right do you, a mere scholar stationed in the rear, have to point fingers at this general?"
"you……"
Feng Ji was so angry he laughed.
What the hell!
Who is this?
Labor and I are your teammates! Teammates, understand?
I know you have a bad temper, but why do you still launch indiscriminate attacks?
"You deserve a generous reward for your numerous victories."
"I intend to petition the court to appoint you as a General of the Vanguard. What do you think?"
Yuan Shao looked at Qu Yi with a smile.
Dealing with this kind of roughneck is much simpler than dealing with Ju Shou.
Unexpectedly, Qu Yi showed a look of disgust.
"My lord, how dare you even offer up such a worthless position as General of the Vanguard?"
"As you know, I have always looked up to General Huo."
"Given the merits I have made so far, why can't my lord grant me the position of General of the Cavalry?"
"what!!!"
Shen Pei couldn't hold back any longer.
Huo Biaoqi refers to Huo Qubing.
No, what kind of person are you, Qu Yi? How can you compare yourself to Huo Qubing, who famously sealed the wolf's lair?
Even teammates Shen Pei and Feng Ji couldn't help but want to curse Qu Yi, let alone their lord Yuan Shao?
A sinister smile flashed across Yuan Shao's face.
"Qu Yi, Qu Yi, the title of General of the Cavalry is not worthy of you."
"I hereby recommend you for the position of Grand General, and offer you this position. What do you say?"
