After being full of wine and food, Deng Jiugongping retired from the generals, leaving Zhang Kui alone. After some conversation, Deng Jiu knew that Zhang Kui liked the art of war, and he did what he liked in his words, and brought out several classic cases in later generations, which all made Zhang Kui convinced.

"General Zhang, do you know why birds like to hover and soar in the air? ”

Zhang Kui was stunned, shook his head and said, "The lower officials don't know." ”

Deng Jiu said fairly: "The bird is high in the sky, so the horizon becomes broader, and it is easier to catch prey, and birds of prey like it are naturally suitable for soaring in the air." As he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Kui and said, "The general's Taoism is strong, why are you willing to be trapped in the land of rope ponds." ”

Zhang Kui said: "Home is here, this is my home, although the city is a little smaller, but the geographical location here is important, extending in all directions, and the prosperity is not inferior to those big cities." ”

Deng Jiu said fairly: "The general's words are wrong, if the world is peaceful, it is normal for you to think like this, even the official will yearn for this kind of life." But now that the chaos is about to break out, it is difficult to be alone, and the general is full of thaumaturgy, so why not go to the border and serve the country. As the saying goes: the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband. I also hope that the general will help me fight in all directions, calm the four seas, and return the people to a peaceful and prosperous world. ”

Zhang Kui's heart was cold, but he was a guard at the bottom, with a calm personality, and he did not have the enthusiasm of ordinary generals, so he immediately hugged his fists and agreed to follow. He glanced at Deng Jiugong and said, "Generalissimo, there is something unclear about the lower officials, please tell me." ”

Deng Jiugong smiled faintly and said, "General, please speak." ”

"The generalissimo is in a high position, and he is the son of heaven, even if he is a guard like a lower official, he can be transferred at will. Why didn't you order directly, but were so polite to your subordinates. ”

What his wife said was right, Deng Jiugong did come at him.

Deng Jiugong said with a smile: "If the melon is not sweet, if the general is unwilling to leave the rope pool, even if he is forced to go to the Soul Pass by the imperial power, it is estimated that he will complain to me, such a general, this official is not at ease to use." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Kui's face was a little embarrassed, and he was really a little unwilling. At this time, Gao Lanying walked out from behind the curtain, saluted Deng Jiu, and said apologetically: "Generalissimo, the slave family cares about my husband, so he hid behind and eavesdropped, please forgive me for the offense." ”

Deng Jiugong smiled and said: "General Zhang has a lady like you, it is really his blessing, how can this official be blamed for some trivial things!"

In the original book, Gao Lanying first stabbed Deng Chanyu in the eye with a sun god needle, and then beheaded her under the knife. It stands to reason that he should have an inexplicable hatred for Gao Lanying, but Deng Jiugong is calm, because he knows that this scene will never happen again.

Gao Lanying glanced at her husband and persuaded: "Husband, since the generalissimo values you so much, why don't you quickly agree and follow the generalissimo to serve the country together." Don't worry, I will guard this city for you, and wait for you to return. ”

"Madame has a point. ”

Zhang Kui hugged Deng Jiugong and said loudly: "The generalissimo is above, and the last general, Zhang Kui, is willing to be a junior general in front of the army, to sweep away the rebellion for you, and clear the world, in order to repay the generalissimo's appreciation." ”

In fact, Zhang Kui had already been moved by Deng Jiugong's words, but he was just worried about his family, so he hesitated, Gao Lanying was empathetic, and he could rest assured that he would follow Deng Jiugong to quell the rebellion.

Deng Jiugong said with a smile: "Okay, I have General Zhang, it is really like a tiger with wings, this time I will definitely be able to break the enemy soldiers in one fell swoop, and capture the thief for the first time!" Zhang Kui is proficient in the art of earth practice, and there is a black smoke unicorn that looks like a ghost, and the general general is difficult to be his enemy in a round, with him, with one block three, the Eastern Crusade is only afraid that it will end sooner than expected.

Zhang Kui said: "With the generalissimo in command, the last general will have this confidence." ”

......

As early as after the army crossed the river, Qin Ming was ordered by Deng Jiugong to go to Tongguan.

Tongguan is the last pass of the five passes, the Xiongguan is long, after this pass, it is a horse Pingchuan, only two hundred miles can reach the rope pool. Originally, the Tongguan guard would be Chen Tong, when Huang Feihu crossed the Tongguan Pass, and Chen Tong was defeated, Huang Tianhua was ordered by the master to go down the mountain to help, first received Chen Tong's fire dragon mark with Hualan, and then killed him with the Mo Evil Sword. After Chen Tong's death, the imperial court sent Yu Hualong to take over the pass.

"The guards in the city listen, I am Qin Ming under Generalissimo Deng, and I have something to see your general, please let me know. ”

When the Tongguan guard heard that it was Generalissimo Deng's person, he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly opened the city gate and invited people in and took them to see Yu Hualong. Yu Hualong neither knows Taoism, nor is his martial arts average, but he is loyal to the imperial court, and the king of Xuan pitied him for his loyalty, so he let him guard Tongguan.

At this moment, Yu Hualong was resting, listening to the report of his subordinates, and hurriedly got up to meet him: "It turned out to be General Qin, the general came from afar, and the official was missing away, and he hoped to forgive his sins." ”

Deng Jiugong is a high-ranking and powerful person, and he is deeply trusted by the Son of Heaven, even if it is a general under him, Yu Hualong does not dare to offend easily, so in front of Qin Ming, he does not dare to put on a general shelf.

Qin Ming glanced at him and arched his hand: "I've seen General Yu, I'm here to borrow someone from the general on the order of the marshal." ”

Yu Hualong was surprised: "I don't know who the generalissimo borrowed." ”

Qin Ming said: "This person's name is Bian Ji, and the general can recognize him." ”

Yu Hualong said with a smile: "I naturally recognize that his father is my deputy general Bian Jinlong, I heard that Bian Ji has been a teacher from a different person since he was a child and has learned a first-hand Taoism, but I don't think so." I didn't expect that even the famous generalissimo knew about him, but I was clumsy. ”

"I see, the military situation is urgent, and I ask General Yu to send someone to inform Bian Ji that I will wait for an hour at most, and then I will go to meet my marshal. ”

"The general will sit in the hall for a while, and I'll make arrangements. ”

Qin Ming nodded, looking at the back of Yu Hualong's departure, he sighed in his heart, a year ago, he was just a humble young general, life and death were in the hands of others, but now he has become the captain of the handsome personal army, and even the guards of a city have to be polite to themselves. This life experience is really unspeakable.

......

When Bian Ji heard that he was going to be transferred to the Eastern Crusade, he couldn't help but be surprised, almost no one except his father knew about the magic he had learned. How did Generalissimo Deng know about this, and he also sent someone to invite him in person, and the meaning of importance was obvious.

Bian Jinlong said: "Ji'er, this is a good opportunity to make a name for yourself, you go and clean up quickly, and report to Generalissimo Deng with General Qin Ming." My father knows that you have a skill, and now you can show your strength, and if you can make great contributions, it will also be the glory of my Bian family. ”

Yu Hualong smiled and said to Bian Ji: "Bian Ji, I congratulate you here." "His five sons, all of whom are good at martial arts, did not let Deng Dashuai value it, but it was the son of the deputy general who made him look at him differently, and Yu Hualong felt quite uncomfortable in his heart.

Bian Ji nodded and said to Bian Jinlong: "Father, I don't know how long it will take for the child to come back, you must take care of your body." After speaking, he glanced at Bian Jinlong reluctantly, and went down to pack his things.

Bian Ji took out the ghost bone banner from the treasure chest in the room, which is a very powerful magic weapon that can suck people's souls. Even if the gods meet this flag, they are at their own mercy. In addition, his weapon, the Fang Tian Painting Halberd, was also brought along.
