Xishu in summer is hot and humid, and the rain is as capricious as a wayward child.

It had just cleared for half an hour, and the sky suddenly became cloudy again, and the raindrops fell from the sky like beans, knocking on the roof tiles crackling non-stop.

As the last Shu soldier who tried to resist was slashed and killed with a knife, the shouts of killing disappeared, the water of the inland river beeped and flowed, the blood of people and horses dyed the green riverside meadows a dark red color, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood.

The soldiers of the tiger and leopard battalion searched the battlefield one by one, turned over the corpses, and if there was still breathing, they were stabbed to death, on the wall of the Sword Pavilion, Jiang Xu pinned the spear to the city wall, Lei Tong's head hung high, he stood at the head of the city, looking ahead, silent, as if he was extremely tired, under the setting sun, his long figure was like a green pine, but his face was covered with blood, and he couldn't tell what his expression was at this time.

Yang Fu stepped forward, and seemed to have an answer in his heart: "Surprise attack on the Sword Pavilion, this is a great gift to the lord, Bo Yi, you have succeeded!" ”

"More than 2,000 people died, it is not a complete victory, how can it be a great gift"

"Once the Sword Pavilion is lost, Shuzhong will be in chaos, then Liu Yan is afraid that his life will not be long, as soon as Liu Yan dies, Liu Zhang will succeed to the throne, then who Liu Zhang is, don't you know yet?"

Jiang Xu said approvingly: "You are right, exchange two thousand people for Xishu, they also deserve to die!" ”

Yang Fu pondered for a moment, then raised his head and asked, "Are you really going to transfer Boyo elsewhere?" ”

Jiang Xu smiled slightly. Raise your hand and face the road that is about to sink into the horizon, as if you want to lift up the day.

"Perhaps, the combat effectiveness of the Tiger and Par Battalion today is even more powerful than I imagined, especially the Gu poison, as long as it is shot. In less than half a pillar of incense, it will turn into a pool of blood, and I wonder why they were useless when we He Qiang fought in the first place! ”

Yang Fu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The Qiang and Nanban are both masters of poison making, this is not surprising, if they used this poisonous arrow on us at the beginning, I am afraid that there is no Qiang at this moment." They're not stupid! ”

At this time, the sound of the gong sounded around the Sword Pavilion City, and the various departments began to gather in formation, Ming Jin collected the troops, and the first battle into Shu ended in this golden sound like the death knell music.

Chengdu, in the field of Shu Military Academy.

"Hold the sword steadily, and the thrust must be strong at the waist!" The man who spoke was a man dressed as a general, and his face was unruly. The face is narrow and long, the tip of the nose is hooked, it is the appearance of Qingfeng said in the photo book, most of the people with this appearance are narrow and ruthless, this person is just Zhang Ren, the first of the four generals in Xichuan.

The four generals of Xichuan are the collective names of the four generals under the account of Liu Yan, who are Zhang Ren, Liu Bi, Ling Bao, and Deng Xian. All four of them are loyal and righteous people, and their blood is strong. Liu Yan can have today, and it has nothing to do with the four generals under his account, when the Dongzhou Shilin rebellion was all relied on four people to lead the army to conquer.

Zhang Ren raised his short sword and said in his mouth, and the young man in front of him nodded. Raised his sword and stabbed at him again, this stab was extremely fast, and there was already a bit of fire, Zhang Ren blocked it with ease, and mentioned a few words from time to time. Every time he mentioned a point, the young man's gun became more ferocious, and his understanding and roots made Zhang Ren quite surprised in his heart.

He remembered that his teacher Tong Yuan once said that the sword is a murder weapon among the hundred soldiers, and people have anger in order to go further in swordsmanship, and Liu Zha's talent in this area makes Zhang Ren amazed, since he was a child, he was murderous as soon as he held the wooden sword, especially when he listened to him explain the key to the fast sword, it was even more murderous, he practiced with Zhang Ren, every time it was like facing the enemy who killed his father, and often forced Zhang Ren to use real kung fu to control him and not be hurt by him.

Zhang Ren really likes this child, he has no selfishness, except for the hundred birds and the phoenix gun, he has already taught everything he has learned in his chest, he believes that if the master Tong Yuan knows, he will be very happy! ”

"Okay, I'll practice here today, my muscles and bones are tired, and it's harmful and useless to practice!" Yang Ren slapped down the short sword in Liu Zha's hand ten times, announcing that today's practice would be here.

Liu Zha's face was flushed, and he gasped slightly, but the whole person looked very excited, he bowed deeply, and then wiped the sword body with the hem of his shirt, and asked casually: "Tong Yuan taught you the spear skills, when will you teach me?" ”

Zhang Ren frowned slightly, this kid has no respect for Tong Yuan in his words, Tong Yuan is his master according to his seniority, but these children of the big clan are like this, learning swords, archery and learning to learn, it is nothing more than a skill, and it can't change the respect and inferiority between the families and the poor families, he replied: "Little boy, the last general will uphold the master's order, without the master and his old man nodding, this hundred birds will not be taught to outsiders!" ”

Liu Zha let out an "oh" and asked, "You are the general under my grandfather's account, tell me, how many years have you been under his account?" ”

Yang Ren said with a smile: "We have been under the main account for five years, of course we are the generals under the main account!" ”

Liu Zha asked curiously: "Five years? Then you and I are not outsiders, count it up, you are all the generals of my Liu family! ”

Zhang Ren was a little inexplicable, they didn't understand why Liu Zha was so young, why he had so many eyes, don't look at his young age, his words were sharper than a knife, and every sentence pierced his heart, Yang Ren's face turned purple, and he couldn't say a word.

Seeing that he was speechless, Liu Zha urged impatiently: "Grandfather asked you to teach me to practice martial arts, but you hide your secrets, you don't teach me, but it's all in your thoughts!" ”

In the last sentence, the threat was overflowing, Zhang Ren stood in place embarrassedly, he didn't understand why Liu Zha was so young and scheming.

Liu Zha showed a hint of mockery: "Since you don't want to, then forget it!" ”

Zhang Ren smiled helplessly and inserted the iron sword back into its sheath.

"If you teach me when, come to me, remember, Liu Xun is a mediocre person, and I am my father's most beloved son!" Liu Zha's eyes were burning, which made Zhang Ren feel a little familiar, he remembered that there was a junior brother who also looked like this when he learned to shoot for the first time, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, this Liu Zha has so many desires, as a descendant of the Han family, there is no need to learn marksmanship, just learn sword punching!

At this time, there was the sound of horses' hooves outside the mansion, and a messenger galloped quickly, and he was in a hurry to detour, and stepped directly over the school field, and went straight to the coach's tent, Liu Zha and Zhang Ren glanced at each other, the former was indifferent, and the latter was preoccupied.

The messenger galloped to the door of the big tent, dismounted and threw the fish scale letter to the guards, and broke in, where Liu Zhang and Deng Xian were drinking and eating.

Zhang Ren has been teaching Liu Zhang's second son to learn martial arts, Deng Xian can only accompany Liu Zhang to do some boring things, the two of them drink happily and talk about some interesting stories, and the smell of chicken tongue foie gras permeates the surroundings.

The messenger walked to Deng Xian's side and said a few words in his ear, Deng Xian's face was cloudy, and he waved him out, Liu Zhang wiped his mouth with Shu brocade, and when he saw Deng Xian's face was gloomy and frightening, he immediately asked: "General Deng, what happened?" ”

"The Sword Pavilion is lost!" Deng Xian said lightly.

After Liu Zhang heard this, the Shu brocade in his hand fell off, and he almost didn't fall off his seat, he hurriedly asked, "Then what should I do now?" ”

The year before last, Liu Zhang was picked up by Liu Yan from Xudu, after he came to Chengdu, Liu Yan asked him to do not do much, nothing more than to read books, and the children of Shilin in Yizhou let the eagle lackeys, thinking about how handsome Liu Zhang was in Xudu, less than three years after coming to Chengdu, he has changed from a handsome man to a bloated young man.

Although he didn't have any military talent, he also knew the importance of the Sword Pavilion to Xishu, and now that he heard that the Sword Pavilion had been taken by others, he would inevitably have a little fear in his heart.

Deng Xian saw Liu Zhang's cowardly appearance, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and he secretly said in his heart: If it weren't for the death of the eldest prince and the second prince in the hands of Li Dao Guo Yan, I'm afraid that the lord of Yizhou would not fall to the third prince, alas, how should this be good!

As soon as he thought of this, Deng Xian looked at Liu Zhang's eyes, a little more disappointed, and said, "Childe, you better take the little boy back first, I still need to discuss with General Zhang!" ”

"Then I'll go back and tell my father!" Liu Zhang's words are clueless, but the meaning is no longer clear.

The system of the Shu army is quite strange, the forces of the Shu faction are all in the army, the leaders are Pang Xi and Zhang Song, and there are Zhang Ren, Liu Bi, Ling Bao, Deng Xian, and Deng Xian, and Deng Xian's four generals firmly control the army; Politically and in the local army, it is the local military and political power of Dongzhou Shilin Huang Quan and Wang Tiren General Shogun.

Lei Tong and Jia Long are the guards of the Sword Pavilion and belong to Dongzhou Shilin, and now that the Sword Pavilion is lost, I am afraid that Liu Yan will pick sand in their eyes again.

Not long after Liu Zhang left, he saw Zhang Ren enter the big tent.

"The Sword Pavilion is lost, according to the character of the lord, will you go or will I go?" Seeing Zhang Ren open the tent and enter, Deng Xian went straight to the point and went straight in.

Zhang Ren's face was relatively calm, and he said lightly: "You know the importance of the Sword Pavilion, I'll go!" ”

Deng Xian was stunned, and said in a lost voice: "This, can it work?" ”

Zhang Ren said: "Okay or not, I will know tomorrow, no matter if you go or I go, the lord will not give up the Sword Pavilion to the Dongzhou people again, Wang Ping is stationed in Ba County, if you don't hurry up, I'm afraid you will lose the opportunity!" ”

The commander is dead, the soldiers will be damaged, for Liu Zhang, it can be regarded as the most ideal result, according to the rules, Lei Tong lost the Sword Pavilion, and the Dongzhou soldiers have violated the original agreement: to defend the Sword Pavilion, Liu Yan put Lei Tong in the Sword Pavilion at the beginning, waiting for this day, and now that Lei Tong has died in battle, they can justifiably accept the Sword Pavilion, although they will lose people and horses, but compared to the Sword Pavilion, those people and horses are worthless.

This is the city in his hand, and the Dongzhou soldiers want to get it back, but it will be difficult, which means that the corner of Dongzhou's airtight army has collapsed, and Liu Zhang, who has always been in a weak position, has an opportunity! (To be continued......)
