In the Laifu inn.
After Zhang Xiu came back, she had nothing to do and spent her time reading in the inn. After all, this is Xu Du. Zhang Xiu didn't go around and stay in the mansion waiting for news.
Wang Yue is also in the yard. He protects Zhang Xiu's safety. Seeing Zhang Xiu sitting in the pavilion, it's snowy all around. The scene of quiet reading makes Wang Yue admire.
Unfortunately, he won't.
He won't do such a thing.
When Zhang Xiu put down his books, Wang Yue said: "Lord, the little emperor has not summoned him. In this way, when can we return to Chang'an? "
Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "what's the hurry? When it's time to come, it will come naturally. While we are in Xudu, you should try your best to develop the royal guards and straighten out the royal guards in Xudu. "
"I'll do it
Wang Yue nodded.
In fact, as soon as Wang Yue arrived at Xudu, he was dealing with the royal guards. During this period, they are busy developing the royal guards. On the one hand, it is to reward the contributions made by the royal guards; on the other hand, it is to continue to develop the royal guards.
Xu Du was the political center under Cao Cao.
This is the most critical area.
Naturally, the wider the royal guards' network, the better.
"Step on it! Step on it
With the sound of hasty footsteps, Deng Zhan hurried in and came to Zhang Xiu's side, reporting: "Lord, Cao Cao sent someone to send a letter saying that today he is performing martial arts in the army. Please go and watch it."
Do you practice martial arts in the army?
Zhang Xiu mouth up, said: "Cao Cao invited me to, I'm afraid to give me a down horse."
Wang Yue said: "Lord, let's not go."
"Go, why not!"
But there was a sense of war in Zhang Xiu's eyes, and she said: "can Cao Cao's army scare me? Before that, I had a confrontation with Cao Cao in Nanyang County. When the two armies were at war, I had a confrontation with Dian Wei, and I was not against Dian Wei at that time. "
"Although Dianwei was suppressed by archery at that time, it was a contest of archery."
"Now, my martial arts are greatly improved. I want to compete with Dian Wei again. In addition, there is a man named Xu Chu under Cao Cao's command, who is also an expert. "
"If we want to subdue Cao Cao's soldiers in the army, we must try our best to subdue Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and make Cao Cao's army completely speechless."
In Zhang Xiu's eyes, the essence is shining.
Wang Yue said: "the more powerful you are, the more easily you will be scared by Cao Cao."
Zhang Xiu dusted off the snowflakes on her robes and said, "the two prime ministers have the most important power, and the two prime ministers have the least power. Now it's worth a try. What's more, what about Cao Cao's fear? He's not afraid of me for a day or two, and he doesn't dare to do anything about me. "
"Get the carriage ready, let's go!"
Zhang Xiu directly ordered to go down.
"Here it is
Deng Zhan should arrange it next time.
After a while, they got out of Laifu Inn, boarded the carriage and went to the direction of Cao Cao's barracks.
It's snowy and cold.
If you ride on horseback, it will be very uncomfortable in the wind and snow, and riding a carriage can resist the wind and snow. The carriage galloped all the way to the outside of the barracks.
After getting out of the carriage, Zhang Xiu takes Wang Yue and Deng Zhan to the door.
"General Zhang, please!"
The soldiers stationed at the gate had long been ordered by Cao Cao. As soon as Zhang Xiu arrived, they led Zhang Xiu to the school yard in the barracks. It wasn't long before they came near the school yard.
Although not close, but far away, already can hear the cry of countless soldiers.
"General Xiahou, come on!"
"General Xiahou!"
"General Xiahou!"
One after another of the cry, constantly echoing in the snowy days.
"General Li, come on!"
"General Li!"
"General Li!"
Another soldier's cry echoed in the air.
Soldiers in the army, constantly shouting.
The shouts of the soldiers on both sides soared into the sky, and the majestic momentum almost scattered the snow. The high pitched atmosphere, passionate momentum and fighting spirit make people excited and make countless people excited.
The whole scene was very lively.
When Zhang Xiu first came to the gate of the barracks, Cao Cao had already arrived at the gate to greet her. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he said with a smile: "you are my son-in-law. Today, the military is the most intense time. Come, come, follow me. "
Zhang Xiu said: "thank you, father-in-law!"
Cao Cao is called a virtuous son-in-law, which brings the relationship between the two sides closer.
He and Cao Cao were lying to each other.
In fact, both Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu want to destroy each other. But on the surface, they kept warm. Because today's Zhang Xiu is not the time to deal with Cao Cao. And now Cao Cao, and lack of skills, can not attack Zhang Xiu.
The two sides maintain apparent harmony.
The party entered the school yard and came to the high platform near the contest.Here is the seat of Cao Cao.
There are no soldiers around, and the line of sight is good, so you can clearly see the contest on the stage.
Nearby, countless soldiers stood. The soldiers looked at the contest on the stage with excited faces. This is a way for soldiers in the army to vent their anger and give them a place to watch.
Soldiers in the army, the day is very monotonous.
In particular, Cao Cao was very strict with his soldiers. He did not allow them to gamble or drink in the army. Most of the time, soldiers have nothing to do but drill.
This kind of situation is prone to accidents.
So Cao Cao specially arranged this kind of fighting once a month.
After taking his seat, Cao Cao pointed to the stage and said with a smile, "the people on the stage are Xia Houdun and Li Dian. Although there is a certain gap in their martial arts. But today, Li Dian played extremely well and did not fall behind. It can be seen that Li Dian worked hard during this period of time. "
After hearing the introduction, Zhang Xiu's eyes fell on Xia Houdun.
XiahouDun was very discriminative. He had an eye patch on his left eye, a beard on his chin, a swallow chin and a tiger beard, and a large figure. He stood on the stage, with a long wooden knife in his hand. The knife technique was steady and did not fall behind.
On the other side, Li Dian uses a long wooden gun.
The two fought like tigers.
This kind of competition, not with real weapons, but with wooden weapons, even if the blade cut on people, it is just a pain after a while. Because the point of the wooden gun is obliterated. It's blunt. Even if you poke it on people, it doesn't make any difference.
Such a contest is very safe.
Zhang Xiu saw the battle between the generals, and then saw the excited reaction of the soldiers around. It seemed that she was fighting on the stage, and she felt awe inspiring.
This is Cao Cao's army.
In this way, Cao Cao constantly cultivated the combative mind of the soldiers.
It is to strengthen the fighting spirit of the soldiers.
Let the soldiers fight for bravery, let the soldiers become howling tigers, rather than a group of bleating sheep.
This is Cao Cao's intention.
When Zhang Xiu was thinking, Cao Cao's words came to her ears. With a smile on his face, Cao Cao said again, "son-in-law, who can win the contest between Xia Houdun and Li Dian?"
Zhang Xiu once again glanced at the two men fighting and said: "Li Dian is not an opponent at all. Don't look at the match now. As a matter of fact, it was that XiahouDun was hiding himself and did not go all out. If XiahouDun did his best and did not make 30 moves, Lidian would be defeated. "
Cao Cao said: "seriously?"
Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "if the father-in-law doesn't believe it, he just needs to give an order to make XiahouDun no longer hide himself. Well, we'll see that in a moment. "
When Cao Cao heard the words, he gave orders to the soldiers beside him.
There are soldiers close to the arena, loudly conveyed the order of Cao Cao. When Xia Houdun heard Cao Cao's order, his eyes swept and he fell to the position where Cao Cao was and saw Zhang Xiu on one side.
