A great man once said that in struggle, we must be good at grasping the main contradictions.

Yan Xibei has already become a pot of porridge.

In the north, the imperial court and the Zhenbei royal palace are in full swing.

In the south, the rebels of Xiliang Tiantian have the potential to sweep the two states of Xiliang and Yanbei.

Behind this.

It is the imperial court, and the game with the king of Zhenbei, the Marquis of Fubo, the northern barbarians, and the people of the Western Regions.

The situation is complex and rapidly changing.

Coupled with the backward communication technology of this era.

Even if Zhang Chu held such a big killer weapon as Fengyunlou in his hand, it was difficult to grasp the context of the chaos in Yanbei.

Not to mention, sort out a thread out of the chaos......

But as the saying goes, the side of the couch does not allow others to snore.

The big mountain pestle of the Beiping League is in the northwest of Yan, how dazzling?

If no party gains power, they will regard him as a mallet in the eyeballs, and they just want to pull it out quickly.

If even Zhang Chu lives in a mess, he is afraid that one day the army will be killed at Taiping Pass, and he doesn't know why.

Propriety?

Rules have always been the shackles of the weak and the sharp weapons in the hands of the strong.

Changing places, Zhang Chu himself was able to find no less than ten reasonable ways to bulldoze the Taiping Pass.

If Xuanbei Prefecture wins the Zhenbei Palace, then even the reason will be saved, and the swarming Beiban Iron Cavalry will tear Taiping Pass to pieces!

Unable to grasp the context of the situation in the northwest of Yanxi, he could not figure out a solution to the current predicament.

Zhang Chu can only start from himself......

Unexpectedly, everything was solved!

He cultivated "Five Emperors of the Five Directions and Returned to the Yuan Gong" and set foot in the second grade!

No matter how chaotic Yan Northwest is, the number of people who can kill him will never exceed one palm!

As long as he doesn't die, Taiping Pass will be as stable as Mount Tai!

Coupled with the fact that his eldest sister Wu Jiuyu is making such a fuss, anyone who can kill him will never do anything to him easily.

Of course.

That's not peace of mind.

But at least, there's already breathing room......

Zhang Chu thought so.

However, before he could catch his breath, Taiping Guan welcomed an unexpected guest.

"Ran Lin?"

On the Hall of the Rising Sun, Zhang Chu, who was sitting on a gilded chair, frowned and looked at His Highness's armor, and asked in a deep voice, "Is he alone?"

His Royal Highness: "Back to the alliance master, he is alone." ”

Zhang Chu groaned and tapped the desk in front of him with two fingers, and said, "Open the door and welcome him in." ”

"Wow. ”

The armor soldier waved his hands in response and hurried out with his waist knife.

Zhang Chu's eyes stared at the vanishing back of the armorer, and his brows became tighter and tighter.

Although he and Ran Lin didn't meet much, they could be regarded as old acquaintances...... The kind of old knowledge that has a very general relationship.

In his mind, Ran Lin is a person who is strong in ability, but his means are a bit inferior......

In order to force him to lead his troops north, he did not hesitate to let a small group of cavalry of the Northern Barbarians cross the defense line and slaughtered his baggage team that transported grain to the northern Xinjiang defense line in the Beiping League.

Based on this alone, he and Ran Lin will never be friends.

If it's a different time.

Ran Lin came to the door, and Zhang Chu would never meet him.

But for now.

Ran Lin is the commander of the imperial court in the true sense of the word.

The commander of the imperial court's expedition to the north of the palace was originally the victorious king Yingyong.

It's a pity that that guy is a reckless man with great ambition and talent, and he dared to advance lightly in away battles, so that Huo Qing came to flood the three armies, and reimbursed nearly 200,000 elite forbidden troops in the imperial court in the first battle.

I don't know if the imperial court saw that changing generals in battle was a taboo on the battlefield, or because he was the face of the prince of the clan, and did not publicly remove him from the post of commander of the expedition to the north, but just urgently dispatched the western governor to Xuanbei to save the field, and as a result, the Li family of the Tiantian army was cheapened......

Now nominally, he is still mainly Yingyong, supplemented by Ran Lin, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Ran Lin has taken over the 200,000 forbidden army of Beiyin County, and he is exercising the power of the real commander of the expedition to the north.

Yes, no matter how disgusted Zhang Chu is with this person, the least respect is still given.

After all, the county officials are not as good as the current management.

Anyway, he had already made up his mind, no matter why Ran Lin came, he would refuse.

Not much.

Under the guidance of the armor soldier, Ran Lin, who was dressed in gray clothes and had a gray beard, looked like an ordinary rich man, and strode into the Palace of the Rising Sun.

"Master Zhang, it's been a long time. ”

Ran Lin clenched his fists and said with a polite smile.

Zhang Chu smiled lightly and hugged his fists in return, "Ran Shuai is polite, please sit down...... Come on, serve tea!"

Ran Lin sat down, looked at Zhang Chu, who was getting younger and younger in the hall, and suddenly sighed: "Zhang Mengzhu is really a masterpiece in the world, I haven't seen him for more than a year, and he has already traveled thousands of miles, and the true sect is old and ashamed!"

Zhang Chu traveled all the way, and it seemed that every time he reunited with his old friend after a long absence, he would hear such feelings.

But Ran Lin's words are really not a compliment.

Thinking back to the last year, when he led an army of 300,000 in Northern Xinjiang to fight against the Northern Barbarians, he was a three-realm three-product.

At that time, Zhang Chu was only a five-grade ......

Not even qualified to stand in front of him and speak!

Later, he relied on the merit of recovering Xuanbei, was promoted to the second rank, and ascended to the sky in one step!

At that time, Zhang Chu was only the top four grades, no matter how he handled it, he could only dare to be angry and dare not speak.

However, only a year has passed!

Zhang Chu was already standing in the same situation as him.

At this moment, the distance between him and Zhang Chu is only a few feet, and the strong true yuan aura faintly exuded around Zhang Chu actually made him feel a sense of shock!

If you have to use an accurate description to describe his mood at this moment, I am afraid that only the three words "beep the dog" are barely appropriate......

Zhang Chu listened to his sour words, and suddenly smiled: "This is thanks to Ran Shuai, if it weren't for the fact that you invited me to lead the army north to fight against the Northern Barbarians, and won the praise of the people of Xuanbei, I am afraid that I am still hovering in the fourth or fifth grade, so in this way, Ran Shuai is better than me, and there is the grace of half a teacher." ”

As he spoke, he really arched his hand to Ran Lin from afar.

Ran Lin's face was a little unpleasant.

How could he not hear that Zhang Chu was satirizing him for forcing him to lead the army north by unsightly means last year?

With his city, if it is something else, no matter how unhappy he is, it will not be superficial.

But this thing ...... He really felt that Zhang Chu had a point.

If it weren't for the fact that he forced Zhang Chu to lead the army north last year, fight against the Northern Barbarians, and harvest a large wave of public opinion, maybe he would still be hovering in the fourth or fifth grade now!

It's just ...... Beep ten dogs!

After a while, the armor on duty outside the hall brought in two fragrant teas.

The two drank tea, and after greeting each other again, Zhang Chu got straight to the point: "Ran Shuai is in charge of the Zhenbei Palace, and he is entangled in everything, so I don't want to come to my Taiping Pass to see the scenery, right? If there is anything that needs Zhang's help, Ran Shuai might as well say directly, what can be done, Zhang will try his best to do it, and if he can't do it, please also ask Ran Shuai to be considerate and understand Zhang's difficulties." ”

Ran Lin put down the tea bowl, stood up, and shook it to the end: "I know the difficulties of the Zhang League, and I don't want to trouble the Zhang Leaguemaster."

"However, the Huo family is so evil that they coerce the northern barbarian thieves to commit rebellion, trapping millions of Li people in Xuanbei Prefecture in dire straits, and now the defense line of the northern drink is precarious and crumbling, and the four southern counties are about to be destroyed in a hundred years. ”

"We are waiting for the five to be burned, but there is really no other way, so I can only take the liberty to come and invite Zhang Mengzhu, Wan Zhang Mengzhu to see the livelihood of millions of Li people in Xuanbei, and to see the tens of thousands of Pao Ze brothers who died in the battle in Northern Xinjiang last year, leave the view of the door, and go out of the mountains to crusade against Huo Wei!"

He spoke in the hall with earnest words and impassionedness, and he almost couldn't help but leave two taels of horse urine.

But Zhang Chu in the hall took the tea bowl and lowered his head to take a sip, and after he finished speaking, he smiled without yin or yang: "Hehe......"

With just two words, Ran Lin's passion disappeared, and even the action of "handily" taking out the "edict" from his arms froze.

This edict was sent to Xuanbei Prefecture in an expedited manner of 800 miles, and when the Taishi handed it over to him, he told him that he must be sure to take out the edict to Zhang Chu.

The imperial court has the practice of recruiting people from the rivers and lakes into the court.

The people in the rivers and lakes also had the right to refuse the imperial court's call.

Of course, most of the time, the imperial court dares to come up with an edict, either the other party will not refuse the conscription, or the other party will not be allowed to refuse the conscription.

Zhang Chu is obviously not in between.

The face of the imperial court can't be lost in Xuanbei Prefecture!

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the aura emitted on the day he was promoted to the second rank was too demonic, making Situ Ji feel threatened, this edict would not exist at all......

There are dates or no dates, and it will not be wrong to beat him three poles first.

"The Huo family is in turmoil, in the final analysis, it is the internal turmoil of the imperial court, and Zhang is reckless, and it is indeed not suitable for meddlers. ”

Zhang Chu said nonchalantly: "Please forgive Zhang for being powerless." ”

Sitting back and watching the Huo family scourge the people of Xuanbei, is he cold-blooded?

Perhaps.

His hot blood has been consumed in the two Northern Expeditions.

He is still counting on relying on what little blood he has left, and spending the rest of his life on a budget.

There's no room for waste......

Listening to Zhang Chu's tone, Ran Lin knew that there was no way to talk about it this day.

Whether Zhang Chu sternly refuses, or avoids talking about it.

Even jumped up and pointed at his nose and scolded him for going to pit him, it was not enough, and you still wanted to pit him again?

He had a way to keep talking.

If he didn't practice his kung fu at home, it would be impossible for him to mix with a second-grade master in the court full of human spirits.

But Zhang Chu is neither salty nor light, and has a lukewarm attitude.

But it was the worst result he expected.

Iron trees can bloom.

But who has seen the stones bloom with flowers?

Ran Lin sighed lightly and arched his hand: "Since the leader of the Zhang League has made up his mind, Ran will not say anything more, disturb the master of the Zhang League, and say goodbye!"

Zhang Chu got up and said with a fake smile: "The deal is not benevolent, Ran Shuai finally came to my Taiping Pass, why do you have to have a meal and go?"

Ran Lin shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Zhang Meng's intentions, Ran understands it, Ran is in military affairs, it is really inconvenient to stay longer!"

Zhang Chu: "Then Zhang will not be forced to stay, another day Ran is handsome, and he will come to my Taiping Pass again, so that Zhang can do his best to be a landlord...... Please. ”

Ran Lin: "If you are free, Ran will definitely come to the door to disturb you...... Please stay. ”

Ran Lin flicked his sleeves and turned around and went out.

Zhang Chu looked at his back, and muttered in his heart: Give up so easily? It's not like this old man's style of acting!

He is a person who despises Ran Lin.

But Ran Lin's ability, he is still very sure.

Just those dirty routines when this old guy forced him to lead the army north last year, how slippery it was!

He obviously wanted to kill this old man with a knife.

In the end, don't you have to pinch your nose and join him as a general?

Why are you so honest this time, no routine is useless, and the empty mouth and white teeth are coming?

Could it be that he was afraid that he would be forced to tighten up, and he would go back to Zhenbei Wangfu?

That's not right.

Ying Yong knows the grievances between him and Huo Qing, it doesn't make sense that this old guy doesn't know?

This old guy won't still hold back the bad in his heart, right?

Zhang Chu muttered in his heart for a while, but soon, he put this matter behind him.

As the saying goes, this time, that time.

At that time.

Ran Lin is flying.

And he's just a five-pin.

It was Ran Lin who dared to calculate him.

Even if he knew, he couldn't do anything about Ran Lin.

And at this time.

Ran Lin is a second grade.

He is also a second grade!

Ran Lin wants to dare to repeat his old tricks......

The second victory day dares to hang the hammer in public.

Why wouldn't he dare Zhang Chu?

Just now, Ran Lin's body exuded a true yuan aura.

Zhang Chu was confident that with a maximum of fifty moves, he would be able to press Ran Lin's old face into the dirt and rub it......

Strength.

What a good thing!

PS: The chapter says that the big guy "torrent torrent torrent" continues the first half of the limerick.

The grandmaster is difficult to cultivate, and the big guy is not easy to be.

Although there is no idea of competing for ambition, how can the sword be bright?

Heaven and earth want to reopen, and the rivers and lakes are stormy.

The golden silkworm sect was destroyed in the south, and the steppe wolves were punished in the north.

If you want to cultivate the five elements, the nobles come to help.

The end of the world is pure, and the martial arts are exhausted.

The four divine beasts gather, and the unicorn lies in the center.

The five parties return to the original strength, and the young tiger shakes the mountain.

Once I had an epiphany, I saw my mind flying.

(Not as amazing as the first half, but still excellent.) ）
