Chapter 42: "Northland Gun King" Zhang Xiu

"Uncle, I've been waiting in Tianshui County for some time, when will I go to the battlefield?" A young general in armor was asking Zhang Ji impatiently.

Zhang Ji sat on top and chuckled, "It's only been a long time, and you're impatient again." ”

This young general is eight feet tall, with ape arms and bee waist, and a pair of eyes are bright, but now his eyebrows are tightly locked, and he keeps walking back and forth in the big tent, looking a little anxious.

"It's not that my nephew is impatient, but there is news from Chang'an, and General Zhang Liao and Xu Rong from Bingzhou have sent troops to merge with the state."

"If we stay in this place, how can we make any military achievements."

"And Li Dao, Guo Yan and others also led the army in the Luoyang area, and only my uncle was arranged to have an idle errand."

At this time, it was his nephew Zhang Xiu who was talking to Zhang Ji.

Zhang Ji looked at his nephew with helplessness on his face.

This nephew himself is treated like a son, and he is usually close to the abnormal, otherwise he would not have said this directly.

"Xiu'er doesn't have to worry, uncle's errand is not idle."

Zhang Xiu raised his voice, "Uncle." "Isn't this an idle errand?"

"We do things like setting up a shed to give porridge?"

"This is not something that should be left to others to do, we are the generals who lead the army, not the officials who govern one side."

Zhang Ji patiently explained: "Dong Xiangguo was born in the two states of West and Liang, although he was not born in Xiliang, but he can be regarded as a person from West and Liang. ”

"Now that I am equivalent to a person from Liangzhou, I am here to spread my reputation for Dong Xiangguo, is it idle?"

"What's more, among the displaced people, those who can survive the war are all high-quality soldiers, and with these soldiers, they can go to the battlefield to fight with a little training."

"It's a first-class thing."

Zhang Xiu sighed lightly, "Alas, I also know what my uncle said." ”

"It's just that I feel a little aggrieved."

"And ......"

Zhang Ji raised his eyebrows, "You kid, if you have something to say, you don't want you to look like you usually." ”

Zhang Xiu said in a low voice: "My nephew always feels that Dong Xiangguo treats the group of people in Liangzhou closer than we in Liangzhou. ”

When Zhang Ji heard this, he glared at Zhang Xiu and shouted, "Don't talk nonsense." ”

Zhang Xiu's face showed grievances, I wasn't going to say it, it was your uncle who asked me to say it, and you said it and you didn't let me say it.

Isn't that difficult for a strong man?

Zhang Ji saw his nephew's thoughts, and said in a low voice: "This matter is also normal. ”

"I was born in Liangzhou, and no one knows that we are Dong Xiangguo's descendants and belong to my own family."

"But the people of the state are different, Dong Xiangguo accepted Lu Bu as his righteous son, but for the hearts of the people of the state, let them know that it is beneficial to follow Dong Xiangguo."

"It's like you and me."

Speaking of this, Zhang Ji smiled, "If your uncle doesn't promote you, will you still blame your uncle?" ”

Zhang Xiu muttered, "It's not strange in my mouth, but I must be a little uncomfortable in my heart." ”

Zhang Ji listened to his nephew's words, and couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

"Well, you've got a point."

"You've got a point."

Zhang Ji looked at his nephew and was a little speechless in his heart, and sighed in his mouth, "What's more, Lu Bu's martial arts are superb, and it is indeed worth wooing." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows, "Lu Bu?!" ”

"My nephew wants to compete with Lu Bu."

Zhang Ji shook his head, "Xiu'er is not its opponent now, its vertical and horizontal battlefield is still at its peak, and it is a few years later, it is also a little possible." ”

Zhang Xiu was quite unconvinced, "Uncle means that the nephew will wait for him to be old and then compete with him?" ”

"Is the child the one who waits for the next work?"

Zhang Ji decisively changed the topic, "Let's not talk about Lu Bu first. ”

"In the past, before the Tiger Prison Pass, there were two generals under Liu Bei's account, if you can tie with them."

A black line appeared on Zhang Xiu's face, Liu Bei's general?

Liu, Guan, and Zhang took turns to fight with Lu Bu, and in the end they were tied with Lu Bu.

In particular, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard that their martial arts were strong, and Guan Yu was better than Zhang Fei.

But those two couldn't beat Lu Bu together.

Tie with them yourself?

In the eyes of his uncle, the gap between himself and Lu Bu is so big?

Although Zhang Xiu was a little unconvinced in his heart, it was definitely not easy for Lu Bu to be able to make a huge statement.

He began to figure it out in his mind.

He studied under Master Tong Yuantong, who is known as the "God of Guns", and few people know about it.

In addition, the master is low-key, except for his uncle, Zhang Xiu has never mentioned the master's affairs to the public.

When Zhang Xiu thought of Lu Bu, he unconsciously compared Lu Bu with his master.

In the eyes of all the apprentices, his master is of course the most powerful.

However, Zhang Xiu knew that his master was now old and frail, and he was probably not Lu Bu's opponent.

As a disciple of the master, he followed his uncle to fight on the battlefield after leaving the school, and he can be regarded as experienced in a hundred battles.

But in the eyes of his uncle Zhang Ji, he obviously can't resist Lu Bu.

Uncle certainly wouldn't deceive himself.

Zhang Xiu thought that in the correspondence with his master Tong Yuan, the master had mentioned that he had accepted two more apprentices, among which the third disciple Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong had the highest talent.

Zhang Xiu was very convinced by the master who taught him marksmanship, since the master said so.

The third junior brother who had never been masked with himself must have some ability.

I don't know who is better than Lu Bu compared to the third junior brother.

Zhang Xiu smiled self-deprecatingly on his face, "Northland Gun King."

I really don't live up to my name.

In troubled times, demons come out.

There is a character like Lu Bu in the world, and no matter who meets him, he will be a head shorter.

There is a way that there is no first, there is no second, and you must not slack off!

Zhang Xiu tightened his fists and made up his mind that he must learn from Lu Bu when he finds an opportunity.

While Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew were chatting, they didn't know that Lu Bu was riding a red rabbit horse on the way to their camp.

A few days later, a soldier reported.

"General Zhang, General Fenwu Lu Bu is outside the camp and wants to see General Zhang."

Zhang Ji was surprised in his eyes, and secretly wondered in his heart, Lu Bu came in person, could something have happened?

Zhang Ji asked slowly, "How many men and horses did General Fenwu bring here?" ”

The soldier replied: "Back to the general, General Fenwu came alone and did not bring soldiers and horses." ”

Zhang Ji waved his hand, "You go down." ”

"Ben will personally go out of the camp to greet him."

The soldiers retreated.

Just as Zhang Ji was about to leave the camp, his nephew Zhang Xiu also rushed over when he heard the news

I only heard Zhang Xiu smile and said: "Uncle, Lu Bu is this person, and my nephew has only heard of his name, but I haven't seen him." ”

"Just go with my uncle for a long time."

Zhang Ji shook his head and said helplessly: "Let's go over there together." "But Xiu'er can't Meng Lang."

Zhang Xiu nodded and said solemnly: "Is my nephew a person who doesn't know anything?" ”

"That's good!"

"Come out of camp with me."

The uncle and nephew rode out of the camp with a few horses.
