Chapter 43: The World of the Old Zhang Family

Liaodong City.

Before dark, the five thousand ** led by Zhang Zhifang finally came to Liaodong City, which was located outside the pass. The Liaodong defender is Zhang Yunshen, a famous general in Youzhou, and the old general is over sixty years old at this time.

"Old General Zhang, Zhifang led troops to Liaodong in the name of his father to help the old general sweep away the mountains and ridicule the thieves." After seeing Zhang Yunshen, Zhang Zhifang arched his hand and said.

"Jiedu enables the lord to send his son to bring troops here, which is a great support for my Liaodong, and the last general will thank the lord of Jiedu." Zhang Yunshen said in a loud voice and bowed his hand.

Looking at this old general with white hair, although Zhang Wei admired, he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart, it can really be said: the general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man returned in ten years.

The old generals are so old, and they are still guarding the border for the country, which is really commendable.

It's a good thing to be loyal, but when you reach this age, you can still get on a war horse, even if someone helps you get on a war horse, can you still pull a bow and arrow, and dance with a sword and gun? If you hurt your bones, sprain your waist, or fall off your horse, you won't die?

Zhang Wei knew that his grandfather had fallen when he was 60 years old, and as a result, he was hospitalized for more than a month, and finally fell lame.

Look at the old General Zhang, who is in his sixties and still in good spirits, not only can he eat and drink, but he can also go into battle to kill the enemy, which is a national contribution.

Why is there such a big gap in life?

"Who is this?" Just when Zhang Wei applauded General Zhang's good physical fitness, Zhang Yunshen pointed at Zhang Wei and asked Zhang Zhifang.

"Oh, you're talking about Zhang Gongzi, he was originally a guest of King Yun, and he was also a staff member of the Linghu Prime Minister's Mansion, although he lived a life of fine clothes and food, but Zhang Gongzi wanted to kill the enemy for the country and serve the country. The last time I went to Chang'an with my father, Zhang Gongzi came with me. Zhang Zhifang introduced.

The introduction is so detailed!

Such a detailed explanation made Zhang Yunshen and others embarrassed.

I thought it was a follower, but I didn't expect a god to come. God is coming, and we can't wait!

After all, we are here at the border pass, a place to lead troops to fight, not a temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, and not a temple to serve the gods.

"It turned out to be Zhang Gongzi! The end will be polite. After that, Zhang Yun stretched out his hand and said to Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei hurriedly returned the salute and said: "General Zhang, don't be surprised, at the moment Zhang is just a staff member of the Jiedu Embassy, if the general has any orders, Zhang Wei will definitely do what he can do." ”

Zhang Wei's words clearly told Zhang Yunshen that he was a worker, and he came here to be an errand, not a god, and you just told him what he wanted.

Zhang Yunshen smiled when he heard this, didn't say anything more, and said to Zhang Zhifang, Zhang Wei and others: "Everyone, please inside, all the generals in Liaodong are waiting." ”

Following Zhang Yunshen, Zhang Wei walked into Liaodong City.

When he walked into this city, Zhang Wei deeply felt the difference between the border city and the Central Plains city, everything here is prepared for war, after entering the first city gate, there is a second city gate, which is connected with the city wall between the two city gates, with arrow towers, gates, pheasant moats and other defensive facilities, and there are soldiers patrolling back and forth.

After passing through two gates to enter the city, the street construction on both sides is also different from the city in the Central Plains, all the shops have a faΓ§ade, many of the doors are double-stored, and the shops are equipped with bows, arrows and spears and other weapons.

While producing, fighting at the same time, the revolutionary style cannot be lost.

While selling goods, while practicing, practical experience is indispensable. When the price can't be negotiated, you and I will compare, and whoever wins will listen to whomever wins.

Haha, interesting, really interesting.

With imagination, Zhang Wei and the others came to the mansion of General Liaodong.

At this time, both sides of this mansion were already full of generals in armor, and when they saw Zhang Zhifang and Zhang Yun stretching out, the soldiers arched their hands and said, "The last general will see the general." ”

"Everyone, please get up, this time I will be ordered by the envoy of Jiedu to bring 5,000 soldiers and horses to reinforce Liaodong, I hope you can work together to defeat the attack of the mountain rats in one fell swoop." After meeting with the generals, Zhang Zhifang said to the generals.

After saying this, Zhang Zhifang glanced at Zhang Yunshen, "Old general, if there is nothing to do, let everyone disperse." ”

Obviously, Zhang Zhifang is unwilling to let so many people here.

Zhang Yunshen waved his hand, "Did you hear that, the deputy envoy asked you to go back first, if there is anything, I will inform you in time." ”

"No--, will take his leave." After that, the generals took their leave.

Vice-Envoy?

Zhang Yunshen actually called Zhang Zhifang a "deputy envoy"?

It's been so long since he came to Youzhou, and it's the first time Zhang Wei has heard someone call Zhang Zhifang a "deputy envoy".

What does the deputy envoy mean, is he the deputy envoy of the festival in Youzhou?

Zhang Wei's heart was full of doubts.

People can't look good, the sea can't fight, it seems that I still haven't seen your true face clearly!

Your father is the festival envoy of Youzhou, you are the deputy envoy of the festival, and you feel that your old Zhang family opened this Youzhou!

Thinking about it again, maybe this is really the case, the envoy of Youzhou Jiedu is surnamed Zhang, the deputy envoy of Jiedu is also surnamed Zhang, and even this Liaodong general is surnamed Zhang.

What's going on?

Could it be that the world in Youzhou is really the old Zhang family?

This time Zhang Wei guessed correctly, this Youzhou is really opened by the old Zhang family, the envoy of Youzhou Jiedu is Zhang Zhongwu, the deputy envoy of Jiedu is Zhang Zhifang, Ma Budu knows that the soldier and horse envoy and general of Liaodong is Zhang Yunshen, and Zhang Jianzhen, the left Sima of Youfu, and Zhang Jianshou, the general of the right leading army, are the sons of Zhang Yunshen. There is also a history of Pingzhou thorn is Zhang Gongsu.

It doesn't matter if there is a relationship between people or a blood relationship, but one thing is for sure, that is, these people are all surnamed Zhang.

Amazing, so many people surnamed Zhang are in charge of Youzhou, I don't know if you surnamed Zhang can tolerate me, a descendant surnamed Zhang?

Zhang Wei, who was originally full of confidence, was a lot more complicated when he heard that so many people surnamed Zhang were in charge of Youzhou.

"What about Ishio? Why didn't you see Shi Xiong? Among so many Liaodong generals, the only one Zhang Wei could know was Shi Xiong, but among so many generals just now, Zhang Wei never saw Shi Xiong's shadow.

Where is he?

Hearing Zhang Wei's words, Zhang Yunshen replied: "Shi Xiong, does the son know Shi Xiong?" ”

"I'm not very familiar with it, it's just that the last time the Jiedu envoy went to Chang'an, Shi Xiong accompanied the deputy envoy to go together, and when we came back, we chatted all the way, so we knew each other."

Oh--, I see.

That is, the relationship between you by the way, do you think there was any special relationship between you before?

Let's just say that Shi Xiong is a hard-working child, he has been staying in this ghost place in Liaodong for so many years, and I haven't seen him have a special relationship with anyone!

If it weren't for the courage of this kid and the appreciation of the festival envoys, maybe he wouldn't have wanted to get out of the hot land of Liaodong in his life.

After listening to Zhang Wei's words, Zhang Yunshen said: "Shixiong's defense area is in the Daling River, due to the distance, this time the deputy envoy came and did not invite him over. If Zhang Gongzi misses him, he can let him come to see Gongzi one day. ”

Da Ling River?

"Shi Xiong is in the Daling River Defense Zone, so his camp is also in the Daling River?" Zhang Wei asked.

"Yes, Shi Xiong's camp is in the Daling River, which is the forward position of Shanxi's attack." Zhang Yunshen said.

Da Ling River?

Zhang Wei remembered that when he came to Liaodong, he encountered a place called Xiaolinghe on the road, and now there is a big Linghe, is this Liaodong's defense area related to Linghe?
