“Why do you spoke so, Yuanrang? Do you want also want to compete with me for this position?!” The one who spoke the loudest earlier was Xiahou Yuanrang. Although Xiahou Yuanrang was a valiant general, he also possesses the integrity of a valiant general – being a brute. Perhaps he didn’t want to bother using his brain; he had gone wherever he wanted using only his brute force. Thus, he was able to casually ask Cao Ren this question.
[TL: remember, Yuanrang is Xiahou Dun’s courtesy name.]
"Hm?!"Cao Cao gaze grew more profound. This Xiahou Dun, when can he talk so elegantly?,He even said that he’s not capable of commanding the cavalry and even recommended Xu Huang. Cao Cao cast his gaze behind Xiahou Dun to the youngsters of the Xiahou clan; amongst them was Xiahou De.
“Xiahou De? That's Miaocai's nephew!” As if he thought of something, Cao Cao started nodding to himself. He was praising Xiahou De. Xu Huang, Xu Gongming was Miaocai’s subordinate; Xiahou Dun never leaves Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan was the commander of the a cavalry unit, the long ranged raid troops, he would not go and become the commander the Ferocious Cavalry. Thus, the Ferocious Cavalry shall be under Xu Huang’s command name but when Xiahou Dun wanted to use them, Xu Huang won’t be able to refuse!
[TL: since this chapter have so many courtesy names…. In case you forgot… Miaocai is Xiahou Yuan’s courtesy name.]
”In my opinion, General Xu Huang has the ability!” Another general voiced his opinion. This was Yu Jin. For a lack of better option, Yu Jin had to come out to help Xu Huang. He stood next to Xiahou Dun and had his thigh pinched by Xiahou Dun. Even now, his thigh was still very much in pain from the pinch. It was obvious that Xiahou Dun wanted him to come out and talk for Xu Huang.
“This general thinks it’s still better for General Cao Ren to be the commander of Ferocious Cavalry!” Although the Xiahou clan had their most promising nephew Xiahou Ba, the Cao clan also had a lot of youngsters too. Amongst them was Cao Ren’s eldest son, Cao Tai. This year Cao Tai only 20 years old but he was already an excellent general. This argument is for Ferocious Cavalry position, how can Cao Tai do not want that position? If Cao Ren got that position, would not that position will be inherited by Cao Tai someday?
”This official believes!...”
”Ferocious Cavalry!” Being generals themselves, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei was naturally also very tempted by the position of the commander of the Ferocious Cavalry. Alas, they are not Cao Generals. If they were, they will certainly join this argument.
When will elder brother have a trump card like the Ferocious Cavalry? Thought Guan Yu while looking at Liu Bei with a bit of pity and regret and a lot of resolution.
Although Liu Bei’s external expression did not change, he frowned in his heart. Second brother, Guan Yu!!
”Humph!”Old Cao groan coldly “What don’t you dared?! This Ferocious Cavalry, you can all forget about it! Forget about it! Other than Zihe, who amongst you all have the capability on par with him? Ferocious Cavalry in Zihe's command is THE Ferocious Cavalry, when in the hands of any of you; it shall become the Sheep Cavalry!”
”Compared to Chun, none could restore! I alone shall oversee!” Old Cao opened his mouth. What Old Cao meant “Talent like Cao Chun unable to obtain again and no one can compare with him!, I will personally take command of Ferocious Cavalry, so don't raise this issue again”.
Next morning, the first order Old Cao gave after waking up was “Zihe, take your three thousand Ferocious Cavalry as the vanguard and head to Xiapi immediately!” Immediately after saying those words, Cao Cao face grew very bleak. Zihe had passed away. The three thousand Ferocious Cavalry are also gone.
”Fengxiao, you really know me!” Said Cao Cao in frustrating manner. Cao Chun's death make him very uncomfortable, the loss of Ferocious Cavalry makes him much more miserable. How the hell his trump card lost to Bing Province Heavy Cavalry? Are they really that much of terror? Cavalry king?
”Speak!” Cao Cao's mood was not very good so he cannot tolerate Guo Jia very much.
“Milord, please look at this!” Guo Jia's hand showed two pieces of metal linked together. In the middle of the two pieces of metal, there was something that seemed to be for sitting.
”This is?” Said Old Cao disbelieved as he pointed at the thing.
”Milord, please try!” Said Guo Jia while smiling.
One must know that in order to learn to completely ride a horse, one need at least half a year’s time or even a whole year. And in this year, one could only learn how to ride a horse and it was impossible to learn how to ride a horse and shooting from the said horse at the same time. And now, this tool had completely solved this problem.
