Chapter six hundred and twentieth IX I should be within
Zhao Yun and Taishan competed in Changwu County. Because the two of them had made sufficient preparations beforehand, and because they were both rare heroes in the world, no one could see through the true nature of the two for a while.
Intentions and routines.
Huang Zhong stood on the city wall, stroking his black and white beard, squinting his eyes and looking down carefully, looking for anything suspicious.
He looked at it quietly for a long time, but he didn't see any flaws. However, the strength of Taishan's martial arts really exceeded Huang Zhong's imagination.
He can persist with Zhao Yun for so long, but he is indeed a good player in the world!
Taishan and Zhao Yun were competing for a hundred rounds when he suddenly saw him jumping out of the horse ring and shouting: "Zhao Zilong, you and I have been fighting for a long time. We are not tired and the horse is weak. Why don't we go back and rest now? Let's meet again tomorrow."
How about fighting?"
Zhao Yun swung his silver spear and said: "Since you said so, Zhao will let you go back. Don't be afraid, kid! Just go back and recuperate. Zhao won't kill an unweaned child like you."
Taishan snorted coldly and turned his horse back.
Wei Yan led him into the city, while Huang Zhong came down from the tower and said with a smile: "Young man, your martial arts skills are extraordinary. You can persist with Zhao Yun for so long. It is rare in the world."
Taishan quickly clasped his fists and said: "Thanks to General Huang for your compliment."
Huang Zhong said doubtfully: "I just don't understand. You have been fighting him for a hundred rounds. It can be said that the battle is in full swing. How can you suddenly withdraw? This is definitely not the way of a warrior."
Taishan solemnly said: "Although I am just a warrior, I also know that everything has its priorities. This time I go to fight Zhao Yun, not for a competition of victory or defeat, but actually to gain an opportunity for General Huang to repair Nancheng."
The meaning of these words is obvious. If he continues to fight with Zhao Yun truthfully, no matter who loses or wins, the repair work in Nancheng will probably not be able to continue, because once the winner is decided, the pottery merchant's troops are likely to
The soldiers pressed forward and attacked the city with all their might.
But if he and Zhao Yun agreed to go out into battle tomorrow, he would undoubtedly gain time.
While Huang Zhong was feeling emotional, he couldn't help but admire that although this young man was young, he was very sensible, brave and resourceful, and could take the overall situation into consideration. It seemed that he had indeed seen the right person.
"Okay, in that case, I'll leave it to you, General Tai! Don't worry, I will speed up the repairs of Nancheng within three days. As long as you can delay Zhao Yun for three days, I will order you to lead an army alone!
"
Taishan was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately accepted the order and said yes.
…
Afterwards, Taishan and Zhao Yun fought fiercely under the city for three days.
During these three days, both of them fought extremely hard, especially Taishan, who was so young, but had to fight fiercely with Zhao Yun, a powerful general from the north, for so long. An ordinary general would have been unable to hold on.
.
However, every disadvantage must have an advantage. After Taishan persevered, he gained a deeper understanding of both physical and mental growth, and even fierce battles in front of the battle, even in acting.
On the last day, Taishan was finally defeated and was shot in the shoulder by Zhao Yun. He flew back to the formation bleeding.
Although he was defeated, Huang Zhong's Nancheng was finally repaired.
Zhao Yun returned to his own army, and the pottery merchant came to greet him in person.
The pottery merchant glanced at Taishan, who was running toward the city in the distance, and wondered: "That's it. Why did he really get hurt?"
Zhao Yun turned over and dismounted, and coolly turned his war spear to the side, throwing it into the arms of Zhou Cang who was following him. The pottery merchant looked envious.
He's so handsome, just look at him.
Although Zhao Yun was tired, he looked good and refreshed: "Why, do you feel sorry for that boy A Fei?"
The potter nodded lightly and said: "I feel bad. After all, talents are rare... These days, there are really not many young men who can play, talk, and are honest. It's not easy to find one. I have to cherish it.
.”
Zhao Yun smiled softly and said: "Don't worry, the injury Zhao gave him just now was agreed before he went to hide in the mountains, just to make Huang Zhong trust him credulously, so that the third brother does not need to worry.
"
Upon hearing this, the pottery merchant suddenly realized.
He turned to look at the city of Changwu County and told Zhao Yun: "From today on, send more soldiers to investigate around the city and wait for news from the city at any time. If nothing goes as I expected, we will attack Changwu."
The county's capital will probably be built within one or two days."
…
What happened was indeed expected. After Taishan returned to the city, he was appointed as a captain by Huang Zhong and led an army to guard the east city together with Wei Yan.
That night, Wei Yan personally held a small banquet to celebrate Taishan's first contribution, which was highly regarded by General Huang.
After drinking for a long time, Wei Yan got a little drunk, and Taishan immediately took the initiative to invite him.
"If General Wei is tired, you might as well go and rest first. Zhao Yun won't finish the duel with me in the white room today. I don't think Tao Jun will attack the city at night, even if he comes here, there is a general guarding here, and he will never
Disappointed the General’s expectations.”
Wei Yan waved his hand and said: "You and I are both captains now, so why are we called junior generals?"
Taishan hurriedly said: "The general is my benefactor. Without the general, I would not be where I am today. It is appropriate to call me the junior general. From now on, the junior general should regard the general as his elder brother and respect him."
Although Wei Yan had been modestly declining, he was still very happy, proud and had a sense of accomplishment after hearing this.
These are not Huang Zhong's subordinates, they were clearly promoted by me.
Unable to withstand Taishan's repeated dissuasion, Wei Yan went to bed first, leaving the gate tower to Taishan's guard.
After Wei Yan left, Taishan went up to the city tower to inspect, urging the soldiers everywhere not to be lazy and to defend the city well.
As for him, he walked to the base of a wall, listened to the chirping of birds from time to time below, and while others were not paying attention, secretly shot an arrow out of the city with his bow...
That night, the pottery merchant received a letter of agreement sent from Taishan from the city.
He immediately ordered the entire army to attack Changwu City at all costs the next day.
Tao Jun's offensive was fierce and unexpected, and the soldiers in Changwu City were caught off guard for a while.
Fortunately, Huang Zhong commanded everyone calmly and guarded the city steadily. He himself did not panic at all, and could hardly see any mood swings, which greatly calmed the morale of the army.
There was another person who took the lead and performed very bravely, and that was Taishan.
After a stalemate back and forth like this for most of the day, the potter's soldiers finally retreated.
After Huang Zhong took inventory of the battlefield, he inquired about the battle status of each sect and was quite moved when he learned that Taishan took the lead and showed bravery and fearlessness of death.
After all, he was competing with Zhao Yun yesterday, and he was slightly injured.
Huang Zhong calmly comforted everyone and ordered the soldiers not to relax tonight and to strictly abide by their duties.
…
That night, Taishan came to Wei Yan again with a jug of wine for a drink.
Wei Yan was amused at the sight: "We brothers just finished drinking last night, why are we drinking again today? You are obviously trying to get me drunk."
Taishan said respectfully: "Tonight, I will be praised by General Huang again. After thinking about it, I have to thank General, so I am here again tonight. It doesn't matter if I drink, General. I am drunk. I have the heavy responsibility of guarding the east gate, so I will stay up late."
