Chapter 47: Dragon Riding on the Face
Everyone looked at each other, and finally everyone entered the camp together.
Now that they have decided to reveal the effects of the talent, no one wants to hide it anymore.
No matter how well it is concealed, once the talent effect is activated on the battlefield, most of the talent effect will be leaked afterwards.
Since you can't hide it, why bother to act like a despicable person?
Guo Hao took the lead. His effect was very simple anyway, so there was no need to worry about it being leaked.
"The effect of my talent is that it increases combat effectiveness as the sun rises and falls. At noon, I can raise the elite troops to the peak of the Royal Guards. Tomorrow at noon, I can be an assault force."
Guo Hao's frankness set a good start, and Liu Bei stepped forward and continued.
"My talent can affect any friendly forces I identify, and can weaken the consumption caused by the talent." The moment Liu Bei opened his mouth, he also activated his talent.
Including Guo Hao, everyone felt the increase to varying degrees. Guo Hao felt that his talent, which originally could only be used for one stick of incense, could now be used for at least half an hour.
"Is this the reason why Liu Bei and his men could fight and fight again and again despite repeated defeats? His generals forcibly opened up their talents, no wonder they could repeatedly create miracles in adversity."
Guo Hao thought to himself that Liu Bei's talent was consistent with what was recorded in various records. From this perspective, he could roughly guess the talents of other people.
Cao Cao on the other side showed a hint of surprise on his face, and continued Liu Bei's words: "My talent can be used on any of my comrades, and can enhance the effect of the talent."
In a sense, Liu Bei and Cao Cao's talents are the best match. One reduces consumption, and the other raises the upper limit. Together, they are enough to allow a person's talents to exceed their level.
Sun Jian was a little embarrassed. His talent was too limited compared to Liu Bei and Cao Cao. "My talent can only be used on Jiangdong children to improve their individual strength."
"I always feel that Sun Jian didn't tell the whole story. So, the ruler of the three kingdoms of Wu, Shu, Wei and Yu who corresponds to Liu Bei and Cao Cao is Sun Ce?" Guo Hao continued to speculate in his mind.
Unlike those present who claimed to be Han officials and had no other thoughts, Guo Hao knew that the Han Dynasty was basically coming to an end, and he was afraid that he would inevitably have to fight with the princes present in the future.
However, at this moment, we are all Han subjects. Under the influence of the belief of fighting for the country, we can fight together as comrades.
Yuan Shao was also a little surprised. Although he looked down on common people, it did not prevent him from appreciating Liu Bei: "Xuan De and Meng De's talents are amazing. My talent is to enhance the talent effect of anyone who agrees with me, and reduce the cost of activating the talent."
"A weakened version of Liu Bei + a weakened version of Cao Cao?" Guo Hao looked at Yuan Shao's hard-to-conceal complacency with some disdain. The more talents he had, the better the bonus would definitely be than someone who specialized in one effect. He didn't know what Yuan Shao was so proud of.
No one knew what the people in the tent were thinking, but everyone looked normal.
Dong Zhuo watched the others finish speaking and took over the topic: "My talent is aimed at my enemies. Those who are my enemies will be weakened. The more people fear me, the more their strength will be weakened."
"There are five monarchs at the start and a flying dragon is riding on their faces. How can we lose?" Guo Hao looked at the five future princes in the big tent and felt more confident in defeating the Yellow Turbans.
He really felt that the Yellow Turbans were becoming difficult to deal with. Having been on the battlefield for nearly two months, he had no idea about the development of Beiliang City.
He was eager to end the Yellow Turban Rebellion and return to Beiliang. After all, the Han army camp in Da was also under the control of the imperial court, and Beiliang City was his home base.
There is nothing much to say about the talents of generals such as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Like Guo Hao, they can all enhance the strength of the troops, and all of them have talents suitable for charging into battle.
All of them are inferior to the five monarchs with wide-ranging talents, but their martial powers far exceed those of the other five also make their talents just right.
However, there were also people who did not show up. As far as Guo Hao knew, Dong Zhuo must have been hiding his talents. After all, no one would believe you if you said that Li Ru had no talent. If a strategist who started out as the top ten in the world had no talent, then who could have that talent?
Qu Yi has no talent. According to Guo Hao's observation and speculation, only a monarch-level lord or a first-class military general or strategist can have talent.
Hua Xiong was stuck at the gate of becoming a first-rate general. He had no talent, while Zhang He, who was just one level higher than him, had talent.
Both are military generals who command troops. There is no difference in their combat experience and background. The only difference is that one has a military strength of 89 and is a second-rate general, while the other has a military strength of 90 and is a first-rate general.
"Wait, then why do I have talent?" Guo Hao suddenly discovered his blind spot, that is, why he has talent.
None of my five attributes, namely, strength, command, intelligence, politics, and charm, meet the standards. How can I sit on the same level with so many big guys present here?
While Guo Hao was thinking, Li Changsheng brought Yang Lin into the tent.
Yang Lin’s talent is actually breaking formations. He can disrupt the opponent’s formation to the greatest extent and create conditions for his own breakthrough.
Guo Hao was extremely envious. Comparing oneself with others will only make one feel nauseous, and comparing goods with others will only make them look bad. It was indeed good that he had Qu Yi and Xu Rong, but the King who was their backer was also very attractive.
"General Lu's talent will help everyone achieve the greatest effect at the right time, General Zhu's talent will use the energy of humanity to provide an increase, and my talent will allow me to make the most appropriate judgment at the most appropriate time."
Huangfu Song looked at the unhappy people and decisively exposed the talents of his three veterans.
After all, he had revealed other people's cards while he was still hiding them. Now he is restricted by his official position, and it is inevitable that he will have a knot in his heart. It is inevitable that he will be hostile to others when serving in the same court in the future. It is better to eliminate everyone's dissatisfaction as soon as possible.
"This battle still depends on your utmost efforts. We will surely win!"
"We must win, we must win!"
"Don't worry, everyone. After this battle, I will definitely ask His Majesty to commend you for your achievements. The court will never mistreat meritorious officials!"
Huangfu Song saw that everyone was still not in high spirits, so he had no choice but to use his trump card and promise huge profits to motivate Guo Hao and others.
In the final analysis, what everyone is seeking is just one word: profit.
Huangfu Song's promise truly touched everyone's heart, even Yuan Shao, who came from a family of three generations of officials, was no exception. Their Yuan family was glorious, but what did that have to do with him? He was just a concubine's son, and everything in the Yuan family had to fall on his younger brother.
For the few newly-minted monarchs now, fame and honor are indeed what they are pursuing.
If it were during their prime, who would take Huangfu Song's words seriously?
Emperor Zhaolie of Han , Emperor Wu of Wei, Emperor Wulie, General Yuan, Prime Minister Dong, which one of them was not the highest-ranking official in the country.
