Chapter 714: The Battle of the Pioneers (I)
At this time, Ma Zongheng was overjoyed when he got Huang Zhong's surrender, and hurriedly helped Huang Zhong and Huang Xu, and said ecstatically: "In the future, with the help of the master, I am like a tiger with wings, and I am really a hero from heaven!" ”
When Huang Zhong heard this, he looked at Ma Zongheng's hot gaze, and couldn't help but feel nervous, and he hurriedly took a step back, bowed his hand and bowed again: "The lord praises falsely, the word 'heroic', Huang really doesn't dare to be." There is also a difference between respect and inferiority, and the lord still calls Huang by a certain name. ”
"Haha, what is the master's strength, my apprentice knows it very well in his heart. If you talk about archery, even if the master is not the first person in ancient and modern times, at least he can enter the top three! Besides, these days you have bothered to teach me archery, so that my archery skills have improved a lot, I have learned from you, why not be honored as a master? Ma Zongheng said with a bright smile.
Huang Zhong saw that Ma Zongheng was so sincere, although he was moved in his heart, he really didn't dare to go over, and he was hesitating.
"Hehe, the lord does it casually, what he doesn't like the most is the rules, and Huang Gong doesn't have to care too much." At this time, Guo Jia's laughter came. When Huang Zhong saw Guo Jia, he hurriedly looked shocked, and bowed his hand to greet him.
It turned out that the only one who passed Guo Jia's test in the Juxian Pavilion was Huang Zhong. It is said that when Huang Zhong arrived in Puyang, he was not familiar with the place, but it was impossible to rush directly to the government and ask to meet Ma Zongheng. At that time, Huang Zhong happened to hear that Puyang had opened a Juxian Pavilion, and as long as he passed the guò test, he could be recommended by Guo Jia, Ma Zongheng's most relied on adviser. Guo Jia's name, Huang Zhong had heard of it a long time ago, and he also knew that Ma Zongheng was obedient to him, thinking that with Guo Jia's recommendation, he could at least attract Ma Zongheng's attention, and then he would be more sure of each other. So, after Huang Zhong settled Huang Xu, he went. And Huang Zhong's strength is unfathomable, because he is not only blindfolded at the level of archery, but also a hundred steps away, even the red heart, no false hair, Guo Jia was shocked. In the end, Huang Zhong passed the test, and Ma Zongheng was even more excited when he heard that Guo Jia had reported Huang Zhong's name, and he was just taking a lunch break at that time, and he forgot to wear his robe and boots, so he went to see him barefoot in white clothes. This turned out to be a good story.
As for later, Ma Zongheng's request for Huang Zhong was duty-bound, and he immediately invited Hua Yang to treat Huang Xu. And during this period of time, in order to be able to increase his relationship with Huang Zhong as much as possible, Ma Zongheng also put down his posture and repeatedly went to Huang Zhong to ask for archery skills. Although Ma Zongheng's talent in archery is really unbearable, Huang Zhong's attainments in archery have almost reached perfection, and he only taught Ma Zongheng a few small skills, as well as training methods such as clamping soybeans and looking at the wind wheel, which made Ma Zongheng's archery skills improve by leaps and bounds. At the moment, although I dare not say that all of them hit the heart, at least within ten arrows, half of them were shot. For this reason, Ma Zongheng, who was very happy, began to call Huang Zhong a master.
And now, with Hua Yang's wonderful rejuvenation medical skills and the support of Ma Zongheng's heavy money, Huang Xu's condition has been temporarily suppressed, and it is gradually improving. Hua Yang gave Huang Xu a set of practice routines to practice, and ordered Huang Xu to strengthen his body more, and then continue to drink according to his prescription for two years, and then he could completely break the roots. The stubborn illness that has tormented Huang Xu for many years has finally been solved, and both Huang Zhong and Huang Xu are ecstatic.
The burden of many years was finally dragged down, and Huang Zhong was grateful, and he could only devote himself to repaying this great kindness. Of course, Huang Zhong has secretly observed Ma Zongheng for a long time, and from the rich and peaceful livelihood of Puyang, it is not difficult to see that Ma Zongheng is a virtuous monarch who is good at governance, and then looks at the strict rules of the Puyang army, and does things in a serious and orderly manner, even a few points more elite than Cao Jun, but it proves that Ma Zongheng has a talent for command. And Ma Zongheng can distribute the subordinate martial arts, transfer them to their positions, and employ talents, so there is no need to say more. Moreover, Huang Zhong also heard from Ma Zongheng's mouth the idea of 'everyone is self-reliant, the country is precious to the people, and the people are strong to the country', which is extremely shocking, but also exactly in line with Huang Zhong's intentions.
As a result, a qiē is like a matter of course. It is also unpredictable in the world, Xiahoudun worked hard to stay, but it is still rare to find Huang Zhong's heart. And Ma Zongheng relied on Hua Yang, a miracle doctor, under his command, to sit back and enjoy his success.
"Hehe, there is Brother Huang here, lord, in my opinion, there are people who have been selected for the position of pioneer." Guo Jia immediately smiled again and said unhurriedly. When Ma Zongheng heard this, he also smiled brightly, and said, "I also have this intention." ”
When Huang Zhong heard this, he couldn't help but change color, and hurriedly said: "What does the lord mean by this? Could it be that there will be a war in the near future? ”
Ma Zongheng nodded and told Huang Zhong that Yuan Shao had the intention to send troops to Qingzhou. Huang Zhong was indignant when he heard this, and shouted: "This Yuan Benchu is now a general of the imperial court, but he has no intention of serving the imperial court, and only cares about constantly expanding his power and causing war. Such an ambitious person, if he is allowed to get Qingzhou and accumulate the general momentum, the world will definitely be in war in the future~!! ”
"I don't know if the master dares to take the order!?" Ma Zongheng's eyes narrowed and asked in a deep voice.
Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment, and said with some hesitation: "The lord commanded, Huang is duty-bound, but Huang has just joined the ranks, so he will take the position of pioneer, but I am afraid that the soldiers in the army will be unhappy!" There are many fierce generals in the main army, not to mention Zhang, Pang and other generals, they are already famous tiger generals, even Zang, Hu, and Gao are invincible warriors, even if they are willing to obey the lord, but they are afraid that the soldiers in the army will not be convinced! ”
As soon as Huang Zhong said this, Ma Zongheng couldn't help but be stunned, covered his chin and said, "You are right, but I lack consideration." ”
After that, Ma Zongheng subconsciously looked at Guo Jia. Guo Jia seemed to be prepared, and said with a smile: "Hehe, that's the case, the lord might as well set up a ring and let everyone divide into ranks, whoever wins will take the position of pioneer, which also just boosts the morale of the three armies." ”
As soon as Guo Jia's words came out, Ma Zongheng couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he was also excited, and immediately responded. So, Guo Jia quickly went down to arrange. Ma Zongheng chatted with the Huang father and son for a while, and then asked the two to return early and go back to prepare.
So early the next morning, in the Puyang school field. Ma Zongheng gathered a cadre of generals on the platform, and Guo Jia presided over it. All the soldiers and soldiers were watching around, and the crowds were like mountain tides.
And the right point will look at the north area, vacating a piece of open space with 1,000 square meters. In the middle, there is a wooden stake with a pair of Qinglin Suzaku armor hanging.
"I believe that you have heard the news that I sent someone last night, our army is about to have a big war, and we need a tiger general to take the position of vanguard!" As soon as Guo Jia said this, he saw that the soldiers on both sides were all bright. However, there are also people who have a firm face and do not move. It was Zhang Liao, Pang De and Huang Zhong. Zhang Liao has always been steady and mature, and Pang De has grown a lot over the years, and he is no longer the stunned person who must be the first in any war. As for Huang Zhong, who was sitting at the end, he kept his eyes closed and was silent.
Guo Jia paused, and after looking around, he immediately smiled again: "However, our army has many talents, no matter who is chosen, I am afraid that some people will not be convinced." In fact, last night I consulted with the lord to let everyone compare themselves, so that everyone will be convinced! ”
"Hahaha~~! That's naturally good~~!! I'm the first to participate~~!! When Hu Che'er heard this, he immediately jumped up and shouted loudly with great excitement.
As Hu Che'er shouted, he watched the deployment from the sidelines, and immediately raised his arms and shouted, shouting Hu Che'er's name.
"Hey, hey! Lao Hu, don't be happy too early, Gao hasn't made meritorious contributions for a long time, so it's better to give me this pioneer position! At this time, another sturdy and tall general stood up, dressed in a red robe, who was Gao Lan, the deputy general of the White Lion Legion under Zhang Liao.
As a result, when the officers and men of the White Lion Legion saw Gao Ran appearing, they were all excited, and they all raised their arms and cheered, all calling Gao Ran's name, and even overshadowed the momentum of cheering for Hu Che'er for a while.
"Haha, Brother Zhang's command is really energetic!" And Hu Che'er also happened to be the deputy general of Pang De's Red Lion Legion, and seeing Hu Che'er's momentum being suppressed, Pang De's eyes flashed, and he couldn't help shouting to Zhang Liao, the chief opposite.
Zhang Liao sank, and said in a flat tone: "This time the Hebei army is menacing, and Gao Lan, who is both wise and brave, is indeed more suitable for this vanguard position than Lao Hu." ”
"Oh? Now that the winner is not scored, Brother Zhang is not afraid that he will not be able to step down when he says this? But I thought that this pioneer job must be in my pocket!! At the end, Pound shouted, like a thunderbolt exploding, and suddenly the deployment of the Red Lion Legion roared loudly, and the momentum was overwhelming. Zhang Liao didn't speak, but the fierce momentum that instantly sparked on his body immediately aroused the fighting spirit of the White Lion Legion, and soon the two legions roared.
"Hahaha~~!! It seems that this time it will be very lively, but it is so, Zang Mou also came to make up the number of people~!! At this moment, a hearty laughter sounded, the shouts on both sides stopped sharply, everyone looked over, and couldn't help but take a breath of cool air, just saw that the person was burly and huge, compared to Hu Che'er and Gao Ran, a few points stronger, it was the Zang Ba who originally dominated Mount Tai!
And when Pang De and Zhang Liao saw Zang Ba appear, they couldn't help but change color, and they seemed to be a little afraid of Zang Ba.
At this time, the original Taishan thief, that is, now under the command of Zang Ba, immediately roared when he saw Zang Ba appear, and the momentum was also terrifying.
Originally, many soldiers who wanted to fight, when they saw these three people, they all sighed secretly, and they all understood that as soon as these three people appeared, they were afraid that the vanguard position would not be their turn. It's just that there is still a warrior who is not afraid of these three people, compared to the three of them, he saw his eyes sharp, and said with a smile: "Can Wen also come to compete with the generals, it should be a friend with martial arts." ”
And as soon as this figure appeared, the entire school field seemed to explode, but when they heard the noise, most of them shouted Wenpin's name. Speaking of which, although Wenpin's prestige on the battlefield is not as good as that of Zang, Hu, and Gao, it is precisely because of him sitting in Yanzhou and repeatedly breaking strong enemies that Yanzhou is as stable as Mount Tai in these years.
Sure enough, when the three of them saw Wen Ping, they each gave a salute to express their respect. Wen Ping smiled, and returned the salute calmly. When Zhang and Pang saw it, they both cast glances at their two lieutenants, signaling them to take care of Wen Ping, so as not to make him unable to step down. Hu and Gao are all understanding, and secretly bowed their heads.
"That's it! If the four generals are all vying for the vanguard position, then we will wait and see. Someone, prepare! As soon as Guo Jia's voice fell, a powerful cheer suddenly came from the tail seat on the right.
"Wait!!"
With the cheers, everyone couldn't help but look at it, but they all showed doubts. However, soon some people recognized this Huang Zhong and secretly said it below, some people had also heard that Huang Zhong was excellent in archery, and he had shown his skills in the Juxian Pavilion that day, and couldn't help but look forward to it. However, most people didn't know Huang Zhong, and some people secretly despised it and let out bursts of sneering.
As a result, the scene fell silent for a moment. At this moment, there was a sudden shout, and in the crowd, Huang Xu was seen shouting loudly in all his might, cheering for his father Huang Zhong.
