Chapter 1 (Part 2) Just when the Li family was filled with the sadness of separation, the Zhang family ten miles away also began to pack for the fifth son. According to Zhang’s father’s wishes, since the fifth son had already mixed up with a young man
For a small official position, you might as well ask some acquaintances to take care of it, find a reason to stay at home for a longer time, wait until the situation of the Liaodong war becomes clear, and then decide whether to serve in the army or prepare to rush for the exam. But this suggestion was rejected by Wu Wazi on the spot as soon as it was uttered.
Got it
"What if we don't take care of it well and we are forced to transport food like last time, and we end up filling the ditch instead of asking Xuzi for help then, why not just follow him honestly now? Xuzi is a
People who talk about friendship, he has just become a colonel, and I am the captain of the team. If he is promoted to a general, I will be the brigade commander. If he becomes a general and fights with brothers, I will at least get a chariot and cavalry officer.
It is much easier to prepare for the exam by endorsing it every day! Besides, how can the emperor have the intention to take the imperial examination now? The Goguryeo people don't give him face as an old man..." Zhang Wuwa shook his head and fell silent in the dream of promotion and wealth.
Since returning from Liaodong last year, he has not read a day. Reading is useless. He is still taking Xuzi's riding skills, Xuzi's sword skills, Xuzi's achievements, and everything about Li Xu has become his.
When there was no role model, he imagined himself as Li Xu and fought passionately in his dreams.
Li Xu was younger than him. When he was in the county school, he couldn't read as well as him, and he wasn't as good at fighting. But after a year of training, he became so good. Zhang Wuwa firmly believed that one day he could be as fast as his cousin.
Stand out on horseback
His idea influenced many young people around him. Although many children from Shanggu County left last year and never came back, this year when the emperor ordered to recruit folk warriors to serve as Xiaoguo, nearly a hundred people applied in the small town of Yi County. Although many children were killed by their parents
After learning the news, they were dragged back home. In the end, there were more than forty people whose names were left in the Yamen.
"Go, go, don't you be afraid of leaving without looking back!" Zhang's father roared loudly. Enough roaring, but he had to prepare horses and good weapons for his son. Wuwazi was the youngest in the family and had always been his pet peeve. Although he was angry,
Lai’s teeth are filled with hatred, but if they can protect him more, their family will want to protect him more.
"It's not that scary. It's nonsense that the Liao River flows eastward and the warrior never looks back. Last year, I followed Xu Zi from western Liaoning to the edge of Mazhai Water. Hundreds of people walked back and forth, but nothing happened.
Seeing the Goguryeo people dare to come out to fight!" Wu Wazi was so busy bragging that he didn't see the worry on his father's face at all.
The heroic deeds of transporting food to the Mazhai River have been repeated hundreds of times by him, why the Goguryeo people did not dare to come forward with eight hundred as twenty thousand, and how they were defeated in time by a forced march of five hundred miles in three days and nights.
The news was sent back to the emperor, and Li Xu and Liu Hongji led people to rescue the trapped Paoze. He took the initiative to participate, but had to look back and wait for the feat because he was protecting the crown prince of Tang Dynasty. He added fuel to the fire every time, and the story became more exciting every time.
At that time, it seemed that he suddenly became skillful with swords and horses, and became a brave general who could not be stopped by thousands of people. He could easily enter and exit the Goguryeo army seven times.
"Since the Goguryeo people are so weak, how come the Sui Dynasty was defeated?" Zhang Zhi, Wuwazi's brother, could not stand his brother's arrogant face and asked in a low voice.
"Isn't there a treacherous minister who was obstructing this? That Liu Shilong did not allow the soldiers to attack, and destroyed an army of 300,000 for the sake of one man! This time the emperor has beheaded him in public. If everyone lets go and fights, they will definitely defeat Goguryeo.
Drop it!" Zhang Wuwa pouted at her brother, with a profound expression on her face, "If you don't get fame now, when Goguryeo is leveled and there are no more wars around the Sui Dynasty, it will be difficult to make meritorious deeds!"
"Okay, okay, you go and make meritorious service and become a general. We won't delay your future!" Zhang Zhi had no choice but to order his subordinates to prepare dry food for the horses and prepare a generous gift for Li.
Although the two families did not move around much in the past, Wuwazi has been taken care of by Li Xu for a year. Moreover, if the facts are as what Wuwazi said, the time for Li family Xuzi to prosper is just around the corner. If the Zhang family does not take advantage of the opportunity to get close to each other in the future,
Even if you rush out to visit relatives, they may not recognize you.
"Really, don't worry blindly!" Wu Wazi had had enough of bragging. He squatted beside his parents who were instructing the servants to check the packages and comforted him in a low voice, "Xu Zi was originally appreciated by Duke Tang and was appointed by the emperor as a school captain.
, this time in Liaodong, we also rescued Prince Consort Yuwen and the fierce general Xue Shixiong that the emperor liked. With these connections, no general dared to let him make a mistake. I followed him, never leaving, and he was fine.
Then you can live in peace!"
"Humph, if Xuzi is really as hot-tempered as you say, why didn't he see the emperor promote him to an official position?" Zhang Zhi muttered angrily.
"The twenty-fourth army was defeated, and even General Wei Wensheng, who returned with the whole army, was not promoted or demoted. How could the emperor promote Xu Zi to the official position? Isn't that obvious to let people say that he only cares about
Do you think your son-in-law was rescued as a personal favor, regardless of the serious matter of mourning and humiliating the country? This time, General Wei has been promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Justice, assisting the emperor's grandson in supervising the country, and Xuzi's promotion is not just a matter of sight!"
"He is his, he is he. When he was trapped in Liaodong, no one sent people across the river to rescue him?" Zhang Zhi was still unconvinced and deliberately found fault in his brother's words.
"Who said it was hopeless? Tang Gong sent all his family members to look for him, but he didn't expect Xuzi and the others to come back from somewhere else. On the day the bridge was broken, you didn't see it. Tang Gong's son was crying across the river bank. Li Shimin
Li Wan'er and I ran along the river with our soldiers, shouting Xu Zi's name as they ran..." Zhang Wuwa smacked her lips and exclaimed in admiration.
My cousin is not only highly appreciated by Tang Gong, but he is also very likely to be admired by Tang Gong's second daughter. But Zhang Xiu, the fifth son, cannot say that when he returned home, his cousin personally told him that it was okay to brag, but not to mess around.
If he hears a rumor that has a reputation as a bad guy, no matter who it comes from, the fifth son of the Zhang family is responsible. Although he is older than his cousin, he is a little worried about his own.
He was really offended by his cousin who was killed by an army of ten thousand horses. If this cousin, who was said to have killed dozens of people, took a bite of him, I am afraid that he would not only destroy his future.
"However, Wan'er seems to really like Xu Guan. Can't he see it?" Zhang Xiu squatted on the ground and thought with a mysterious face.
"How about teaching Xuzi a few tricks? He seems to be really stupid!" He was thinking, and as he was thinking, saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth, and it was wet and shiny.
