Chapter 22: Zhang He

Xudu, inside the barracks. On the drill school field, it was very lively at this time. A large group of sergeants formed a circle and were shouting excitedly. In the circle, there are two figures staggered, and the sound of the wave of the wooden stick is endless. This is exactly the general Xu Chu and the deputy general Zhang He in the army are testing their martial arts.

Xu Chu's eyes lit up at this time, full of fighting spirit. It had been a long time since he had such a hearty battle, he shouted, the wooden stick in his hand was raised high, and he slashed towards Zhang He with the momentum of the big peng's wings. Zhang He's eyes flashed, and the wooden stick was held horizontally, blocking in front of him, with a "bang". The sticks collided with a clicking sound. The two of them are led by wooden sticks. Fight for brute force. Zhang He's arm muscles flare. Roaring in his mouth. Excitement flashed in his eyes. Arms lifted up fiercely. The wooden stick is on the ground. The body bounced up with strength, and his legs quickly kicked towards Xu Chu...

Xu Chu's eyes flashed, the wooden stick stood up in front of him, pushed forward, and Zhang He's legs collided, and the sound of clicking again. pushed Zhang He away, swept away the wooden stick in his hand, and went straight to Zhang He. The two fought together again. Until the sticks could not withstand such a continuous impact. "Click" broke into two...

The two threw away their sticks and fought together with their bare hands. There was a round of applause. This kind of chess meets opponent-like martial arts. It's a pleasure to watch. If this continues, I'm afraid the two of them will only stop when they are exhausted...

At this moment, Xu Tian was looking at the chariot in front of him on the other side of the school field, and he couldn't help but marvel in his heart that the creation of the ancients was really incomparable. Especially the car in front of me, the iron plate the size of half a city gate was full of sharp spikes. Spikes are half a meter long. Under the sunlight, the cold light flickered. Xu Tian couldn't imagine how much destructive power this chariot would create when it rushed into the enemy camp after being driven by the impact of the four war horses galloping.

Soon, the fight at the other end has ended, and the two are evenly matched. The beaters were hearty. The people who watched were excited. Xu Chu held his right hand, pinched his wrist that was a little sore, and looked at Zhang He and said:

"General Zhang's martial arts are really amazing, Xu has not met an opponent like a general for a long time. Happy, happy!! You and I have a chance to fight him for another 300 rounds, dare?! ”

Zhang He laughed. Clasped his hands into fists and said:

"Why don't you dare, General Xu really lives up to his reputation. The prime minister's tiger marquis can be described as the first in the world. Zhang admires!! ”

While the two were laughing and talking, they saw Xu Tian who was concentrating on studying the chariot. Walked over...

"Sir, what are you looking at?!"

Xu Chu came to Xu Tian's side with a smile. Since passing through the stable, the relationship between Xu Tian and Xu Chu has become one step closer, and they are very easy-going.

"Sir, this is Zhang He. He is the deputy general of this expedition. ”

Turned his head and looked at Zhang He again.

"General Zhang, this is the military advisor, sent by the prime minister to assist us. The military advisor is a god man, and he is clever. ”

Xu Tian was full of smiles, and after listening to Xu Chu's introduction, he bowed to Zhang He

"I have long heard of General Zhang's prestige, and I can see it today. Xu Tian is very honored!! ”

Zhang He hurriedly helped Xu Tian up, and said with an embarrassed face:

"The military advisor praised it falsely, Zhang is just a martial artist. In the future, we need more guidance from the military division! ”

After the three of them met each other, they discussed some martial arts matters, and saw that it was getting late. and went back to their camps to rest...

Late at night, Xu Tian was holding a book about the military formation and reading it carefully. Suddenly there was footsteps at the door.

"The military advisor hasn't rested so late?!"

A voice came, and Xu Tian looked up. Zhang Hezheng walked over with a smile on his face.

"It's still a military book, it's so late, Mr. still can't release the volume, it's admirable!"

Xu Tian put down the book in his hand, he knew that it was so late, something must be wrong when Zhang He came.

"It's just a random look, the general came here late at night, I don't know what advice?!"

Zhang He sat opposite Xu Tian. Cleared his throat.

"Zhang has some questions that he would like to ask Mr. to explain. Please also give me advice! ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, the general has something to say, if you know it, you will say everything..."

Zhang He frowned and said:

"This is the first thing that is well known. Yuan Shao died. There will inevitably be civil strife in the Yuan family. As the so-called sandpiper and clam compete for the benefit of the fisherman. I understand this reason, I didn't expect that the prime minister would send troops to fight them, and the second didn't expect that the prime minister would send Xu Chu. I'm puzzled, so I want to ask my husband for advice! ”

Xu Tian picked up the teapot on the table and poured Zhang He a cup. Smile says:

"The general's question is actually one, yes, the general is quite right. Everyone understands the principle of snipe and clam fighting, and the prime minister also understands it. But that's what everybody thinks. That's why it works wonders. The prime minister is the one who does extraordinary things at extraordinary times, which is why he sent us. Well, I'd like to ask the general. The general had been under Yuan Shao before. In the general's opinion. Now Yuan Shang has taken what originally belonged to his eldest brother. Will they still unite?! ”

Zhang He thought for a moment. Thoughtfully.

"This is definitely not, when Yuan Shao was there in the past, the three of them would still have scruples and make small moves behind their backs. Now Yuan Shang has robbed his eldest brother of things. I'm afraid it's just going to be endless. ”

"That's right, they will never be able to unite, then the third force that appears at this time will be co-opted by them, no matter who it is, it will be like this, because they all want to destroy each other..."

Xu Tianlu took a sip of tea.

"If my expectations are correct, the general is afraid that he will come to hold Xu Chu at the behest of the prime minister!"

Zhang He looked at Xu Tian in shock. The waist gradually straightened up, and it looked a lot more respectful.

"The prime minister knows Xu Chu's character very well, and he wants him to go. It must be that the prime minister has figured out how to deal with them. Let the general come, I'm afraid it's not to see Xu Chu, perhaps, the prime minister takes a fancy to your previous connections in Yuan Shao's camp, with the general here, the capture of Jizhou will be much greater. And if it goes well this time. The general will have a great credit to the prime minister. Then in the future, the prestige of the general and in front of the civil and military forces..."

Xu Tian didn't finish speaking, just looked at Zhang He quietly.

Zhang He took a deep breath, stood up, and bowed deeply to Xu Tian.

"Mr. said, let me be empowered in the next day. Thank you sir. ”

The last few sentences, both for Zhang He and for himself, Xu Tian understood that only this time was successful. Only then did I really have hope and a foothold.........
