Chapter 1 Famous General(1/2)

Standing in front of Mingde Gate, among the bustling crowd, looking up at the towering city walls and towers, Zhang Chang'an said thousands of words in his chest, but he didn't know what to say. After holding it in for a while, he finally squeezed out a few words: "It's so big, so tall!"

Chu Zheng next to him laughed and said sarcastically without hesitation: "If your grandfather knew that if you saw Chang'an City that he was tying day and night, he would have expressed such words of emotion. Not to mention whether you would be so angry that you vomited blood. I guess he would regret the word "Chang'an" for you."

Zhang Changan glanced at him and said unconvincedly: "What do you know? This is called "big sound and a big elephant is invisible. Only the simplest and most straightforward language can express our impressions just right and make people feel empathy!"

"I'll just accept your serious nonsense ability." Chu Zheng sneered, "Only at this time can you have a bit of literary talent as a grand prince."

The two of them were talking and without stopping, walking all the way into the city gate. Only in this way can they cover up their ups and downs and not feel like a countryman.

In comparison, Peng Zushan, who is walking behind, should be much more honest. When he looks around, he is full of respect and yearning, and from time to time he expresses feelings like "really big and really tall", without any concealing his own nature as a local bully.

The feedback received from such words and deeds was that Chang'an people around him looked at the local buns, full of superiority. When they glanced at him, their eyes could not be on their foreheads. Some women would even mutter disdainfully, saying "Where did you get from the mountain boy?" It's really unlucky.

This made Chu Zheng and Zhang Changan, who were looking squinting and constantly squinted, deliberately distanced themselves from Peng Zushan, as if we didn't know him and were not from him, so as not to be embarrassed.

After the Yangguan War last winter, Zhang Chang'an and Chu Zheng followed Li Xian and worked hard on the border for half a year. Every day, they either practice or learn military affairs, or occasionally observe the new magic weapon refined by Peng Zushan.

Originally, such a life would not end in two or three years. Only in this way could Li Xian's hard work for them be considered complete. However, unexpectedly, news of the establishment of Chang'an Cultivation Academy came.

Before Zhang Chang'an and Chu Zheng rushed to Yangguan, they were in the middle stage of Qi training. After the experience of the Yangguan battle and the accumulation of more than half a year, coupled with Li Xian's Dundun's teachings and Nangong's first improvement from time to time, their cultivation has reached the high stage of Qi training.

Zhang Chang'an and Chu Zheng, who also had good military achievements, were recruited by the Chang'an Cultivation Academy Grand Cultivation Branch. As the first batch of real-life reserve forces trained by the dynasty, their future can be imagined.

As for Peng Zushan, he did not come to school, but to become a teacher in the Jiangzuo Branch.

His magic weapon crossbow has been improved, and its power is not much improved, but its stability has undergone qualitative changes. It can be launched for three consecutive hours without worrying about collapse. After every three hours of use, it only needs to be relieved for half an hour before it can be put into use.

Twenty such magical crossbows have been equipped in the Guiyi Army.

In addition, the craftsman in the court also obtained the drawings early and was working hard day and night. According to Li Ye's plan, there will be two hundred magic weapons and crossbows equipped in the army this year.

In fact, at the beginning, Peng Zushan was unwilling to come to Chang'an, and doing something like a teacher in the college was not attractive to him.

Until Li Ye promised him that as long as he taught at Chang'an Practice Academy and wanted to study any magical instruments and materials in the future, he would set off without hesitation.

After entering the city gate, Zhang Chang'an and Chu Zheng both stopped.

The expression on his face that he pretended to be indifferent was still unrestrained at this moment, and his cheek muscles were thrusting.

Seeing that they were not leaving, Peng Zushan leaned his head forward on their shoulders. When he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately exclaimed: "So wide, so long!"

The wide Suzaku Street makes the people walking on it look like rice grains. And at a glance, you can see the majestic imperial gate at the end of the long street! This kind of shock is indeed something that a few rural boys can ignore.

At this moment, the three riders rushed from the Suzaku Street, as fast as lightning, and the pen reached Zhang Changan and others!

As they were about to be broken by horse hooves, the horse riders took several steps in front of them and suddenly tied the reins. The horseman stood up and made a loud neighing sound, which made pedestrians on the street glaring.

There is no horse allowed on Zhuque Street, this is an iron rule.

But when someone recognized that these three cavalry were the Wolf-fanged Army among the Chang'an Imperial Army, no one dared to express their opinions again.

In Wuhoupu on the streets, no one dares to catch the Wolf Tooth Army. Anyway, if something happens to the other party, there will be people above to hold them accountable.

"Did you come from Yangguan?" the cavalry led by the leader asked in a cold voice.

Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng immediately raised their heads and raised their chests. Even when facing the existence of being able to ride horses in the street, they had to show the integrity of the soldiers of Yangguan, "Yes."

"Go back to the camp with us!" The rider immediately smiled sincerely.

Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng were stunned at the same time. When they saw each other smiling, they realized that the mighty general in charge was actually a woman.

"Why do we follow you? We are from Chang'an Practice Academy." Zhang Chang'an was brave and showed his backbone. After all, his family background is the most prominent among the three. At this time, he felt that he had to stand out in order not to lose his majesty.

Zhao Nianci's smile disappeared again, "Wolf Tooth Army invites you, will anyone refuse?"

"Wolf Tooth Army?"

Hearing these three words, the three of them were shocked. That was the most elite unit under King An. He was invincible and had already made a great reputation. Which passionate man does not admire such an army?

Now that he can be invited by the other party to visit, that is a great honor. Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng looked at each other and saw the excitement in each other's eyes. They immediately nodded, "Let's go to the military camp with you!"

"No, I only have one person." Zhao Nianci stretched out a finger.

"One person?" Zhang Changan thought for a while and felt that this person must be himself. After all, his family was prominent and he made great contributions in the battle of Jincheng County, and his grandfather also had a banquet with King An.

Chu Zheng also felt that this person was himself. He had to be himself. His master was from Bailu Cave Sect and had a deep relationship with the two generations of An Wangs. Who wouldn't know that Bailu Cave has great talents? The wolf teeth army wants to bring himself into the gang!

"I'll go with you!" Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng spoke at the same time.

They looked at each other again. But this time, the two brothers had war in their eyes, and no one felt that they were worse than each other.

"All of you Peng Zushan?" Zhao Nianci asked strangely.

Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng were stunned together, "Peng Zushan?"

Zhao Nianci looked behind them, a man who was as strong as an iron tower, "It seems that you are Peng Zushan."

Peng Zushan looked confused: "I am Peng Zushan, but why should I go to your military camp?"

Zhao Nianci smiled evilly, "You will know when you go!"

As he said that, with a wave of his hand, the two riders behind him got off the horse, one left and one right, without saying anything, lifted Peng Zushan and ran away, but they didn't even ride a horse.

Seeing their speed of disappearing in a flash, they were faster than war horses, and they were clearly two powerful men in the high-level Qi training stage!

"Chang'an welcomes you. Two little guys, enjoy the prosperity of Chang'an."

Zhao Nianci gave Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng a joking look, turned the horse's head, took two other horses, and soon disappeared from sight.

"What's going on?"

"Why is Peng Zushan's stone?"

Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng felt extremely confused and frustrated.

After they finally came to their senses, they had no intention of entering Chang'an. They asked listlessly while walking towards Chang'an Practice Academy.

At this time, a fierce quarrel was taking place in the meeting hall in Prince An's mansion.

The quarrel was a group of military generals, one of whom was blushing and his neck was thicker than the other. Seeing their hair and beards and hair were wide open, they seemed to be eager to roll up their sleeves and start fighting. The noise was so loud that it was a tendency to lift the roof.

At the beginning of spring this year, there were 300,000 imperial guards in Chang'an, with three armies under their jurisdiction: Longxiang Army, Tiger Guard Army, and Wolf Fang Army. Now in the autumn, because they have been compiling the number of imperial guards, the number of imperial guards has expanded to 500,000, and the two new armies are: Yulin and Changning.

Now, the main generals and deputy generals of the Five Armies are all in the meeting hall.

At the beginning, several deputy generals were arguing, and then the argument turned into quarrels. They were all long-time generals in the army, and they were not willing to lose to anyone else, so their voices were bigger than the other.

If you dare to stand up, I dare to rush into the hall. If you rush into the hall, I dare to rush into the chest muscles. If you dare to squirt to me, I dare to spit on your face.

The main generals couldn't bear it anymore, fearing that their deputy generals would not be able to hold back and fought in the meeting hall.

Although everyone's weapons were handed over to the hands of the door when they entered Prince An's mansion, they were all powerful generals after all. Even if they swung their fists, they could still punch a mouthful of blood.

Even if King An has not come yet, being arrogant in Prince An's mansion will definitely underestimate the strictness of King An's military discipline.

The main generals went into battle and wanted to pull their generals back, but soon they felt that the other party's appearance was really abominable, they were too arrogant, and they could not control their hot temper, so they scolded the other party a few times.

Unexpectedly, the opponent's main general was scolded and could not sit still, so he immediately stood up for his own people.

Finally, the entire convention hall was just Zhao Bingkun, Zhao Polu and Shangguan Qingcheng.

"General Zhao, we are also considered our own family. This time we are fighting for magic weapon crossbows, we still have to advance and retreat together. If we fight alone, we will compete with General Shangguan, and it is unlikely."

Zhao Bingkun leaned close to Zhao Polu and whispered.

Zhao Polu nodded and agreed: "General Zhao is right, this is very consistent with my opinion. Although I went out with General Shangguan to Pinglu Army, but now we are all Chang'an Imperial Guards, so I won't be polite to her."

Zhao Bingkun was overjoyed and said with a low smile: "With you and me working together, the magic weapon crossbow will definitely fall into our hands!"

Both of them who reached the agreement were very satisfied. While calling themselves brothers, they often glanced at Shang Shangguan Qingcheng.

To their expectations, Shangguan Qingcheng was drinking tea on his own from beginning to end. He was slow, without pretending to be profound, calm, and could not see any worry, as if he had not noticed their whispers.

Zhao Bingkun and Zhao Polu were surprised and looked at each other, but they were a little confused.

The function of magic tools and crossbows has been fully reflected in Yangguan. Now, craftsmen are about to be rushed to make two hundred planes, and naturally they become the target of the army's competition.

The vassal state army naturally doesn't need to think too much, unless it is a border, Li Ye will not allocate it to him.

As a central army, the Chang'an Imperial Army will definitely get the vast majority, but the Imperial Army now has five armies and 500,000 people. How to allocate these magic weapons and crossbows is a problem that the chief generals have put in great painstaking efforts.

After all, Zhao Polu had a long friendship with Shangguan Qingcheng. Seeing that the other party was not in charge of his own affairs, he couldn't help asking: "General Shangguan, don't you want magic weapon crossbow?"

Shangguan Qingcheng put down the tea bowl and said casually: "Of course."

Zhao Polu was even more strange: "Why is General Shangguan so calm? Could it be that King An has promised you a batch?"

Shangguan Qingcheng glanced at Zhao Polu, "Your Highness has always been a clear reward and punishment for governing the army. Military laws are like mountains, and magic weapons, beds and crossbows are important weapons of the country. How can there be a reason for private authorization and acceptance?"

Zhao Bingkun couldn't sit still and interrupted, "Why didn't you see General Shangguan anxious? Doesn't the Wolf Tooth Army want more magical weapons and crossbows?"

Shangguan Qingcheng picked up the tea bowl and drank it lightly, "The strength of the army is the most powerful. As the world's most powerful, the Wolf Tooth Army will naturally get more magic weapons and crossbows. Why should we quarrel with others?"

As soon as he said this, Zhao Bingkun and Zhao Polu looked ugly. They snorted coldly and stopped talking.

The Wolf Tooth Army is the most powerful in the world. Are the Dragon Xiang Army and the Tiger Guard Army ranked second and third?

Of course, Zhao Bingkun and Zhao Polu were not convinced.

Moreover, Shangguan Qingcheng's appearance of holding the wisdom beads also made them feel uncomfortable. It seemed that they had become turtles in the jar and still didn't know it.

Not long after, Li Ye arrived at the meeting hall.

The group of powerful generals who had just fought red and blushed, became very tacit and separated consciously at the moment when Li Ye appeared. They sat down obediently, looking at their noses and their hearts, as if nothing had happened just now, and they were all a harmonious family.
