Early in the morning on the training day, Zhang Xi came to Zhang Fei's military tent early.
Zhang Fei still looked carefree, but he couldn't see any difference from before. On the contrary, Zhang Xi felt a little uneasy.
The strategy was proposed by him. Judging from the performance of the soldiers yesterday, it should be possible...but Zhang Xi was not sure.
What if half of the people still can't hold on today... not even half of the people, but a third of the people can't hold on, Zhang Xi doesn't even dare to think about how Zhang Fei will react.
Therefore, Zhang Xi is more anxious than Zhang Fei.
I really don’t understand. In the novel, Zhuge Liang attacked Bowangpo as soon as he came out of the mountain. How did he manage to make a determined command and open champagne to celebrate at the beginning... It is still true that the historical facts are reliable. He is basically in charge of government affairs and logistics, not So outrageous.
But now Zhang Xi really doesn't dare to think about it. After all, Xu Shu is called "Shan Fu". Can you expect Zhuge Liang to follow the historical route after coming out of the mountain? !
Of course, the most important point is that Zhang Xi and Zhang Fei made insinuations and found out that the Battle of Bowangpo, which was supposed to be commanded by Liu Bei in the seventh year of Jian'an, did not happen in this world.
God knows what is wrong with this world.
When I came to the military tent, I chatted with Zhang Fei for a while. Seeing that it was almost time, Zhang Fei was ready to beat the drums and gather the generals to start today's drill.
As for the small schools of Guan Zhao Second Battalion, they were already waiting outside the military tent early.
But just when Zhang Fei's army was preparing to beat drums to gather the generals, soldiers suddenly came to report that several important figures had come outside the camp gate.
Guan Yu and Zhao Yun actually came in person.
Not only did he come in person, he also brought a middle-aged scribe.
Not to mention Zhang Xi, even Zhang Fei didn't expect this.
When Zhang Fei went to see Guan Yu, Zhao Yun discussed borrowing the opportunity to visit the military primary and secondary schools. He had already explained the matter clearly to the two brothers. Today's incident was just to stimulate the soldiers in the camp, and it was not a serious training exercise. We have sent out good soldiers for everyone to come and visit.
Theoretically speaking, Zhang Fei has already explained the reason clearly, so why would these two people come to his camp in person? !
But no matter what, second brother and Zilong are here. Zhang Fei has no reason not to let them in, so he takes Zhang Xi to the camp gate to greet them.
But this time, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun really came over to watch the fun. Behind them, there was a scribe who was nearly thirty years old.
Zhang Fei welcomed the three people to his military tent and sat down, and then Guan Yu began to introduce the identity of the scribes.
"Third brother, this gentleman is Shan Fu, Mr. Shan, who was newly appointed by my eldest brother as Xicao Yu." Guan Yu introduced to Zhang Fei, "My eldest brother ordered me to familiarize him with military affairs. I was patrolling at Zilong. I happened to hear that my third brother was going to practice today, so I brought my husband to come and have a look."
After Guan Yu finished speaking to Zhang Fei, he turned to Xu Shu and said, "Sir, this is the third brother of a certain family, who holds the post of Zhonglang General. The person next to him is Cao Tong, a soldier in the eldest brother's house, who also serves as the marching commander of a certain family. , Zhang Xi, Mr. Zhang, and he are both from Yingchuan."
After Guan Yu introduced the two parties, it was natural for both parties to meet and greet each other.
Zhang Fei didn't treat Xu Shu like Zhuge Liang in the novel, he just smiled and cupped his hands to Xu Shu, which was considered a greeting.
Zhang Xi, on the other hand, retracted his secret glance at Zhao Yun, followed with a slightly uneasy clasping of hands to Xu Shu, took a breath, and said as calmly as possible, "Xi has met brother Yuan Zhi, long time no see, brother Yuan Zhi has always been great. good."
Zhang Xi has thought about this.
Liu Bei's current grass-roots team is so big. It is only a matter of time before he meets Xu Shu, and hiding there is not an option.
Instead of hiding it all the time, it is better to reveal your identity from the beginning... Although Xu Shu is smart, he has only met Zhang Xi a few times, and they have not seen each other for four or five years. There is really too much to say. Knowing Zhang Xi, I’m afraid it’s not realistic.
As long as he doesn't reveal his flaws, Xu Shu should not be able to see through his identity.
And Xu Shu was obviously stunned. After all, he didn't recognize Zhang Xi at first.
After all, they hadn't seen each other for almost five years. A boy of fifteen or sixteen had grown into an adult man, and it was impossible for Xu Shu to recognize him immediately.
When Zhang Xi called his cousin, Xu Shu looked at Zhang Xi seriously. Thinking back to what Guan Yu had just said, his eyes gradually changed from confusion to surprise.
"It's actually Yuan Chang?!" Xu Shu finally remembered Zhang Xi, and said with joy on his face, "It's been five years since we last seen each other, and I didn't expect Yuan Chang to be under Liu Shijun's command. What a joy and congratulation! "
"Brother Yuan Zhi is also serving under the lord's account. We are happy and happy together." Zhang Xi smiled and said polite words.
Xu Shu was really happy.
These days of war and chaos, it is not easy to meet a fellow countryman in the workplace, let alone an old acquaintance.
Although Xu Shu and Zhang Xi could not be said to be friends, they had only met a few times, but in these days, fellow villagers were all close to each other, not to mention they were fellow townsmen and old acquaintances.
The two people suddenly reminisced about their old friendship, while Zhang Fei couldn't sit still.
"How come the two gentlemen still know each other?!" Zhang Fei asked.
Curiosity, Zhang Fei is just curious.
Xu Shu bowed to Zhang Fei first, and then said, "Yuan Chang and I studied together at Xun Gong's residence in Yingchuan in the past, and we got along quite well. I didn't expect that we would serve the Ming Dynasty together today. What a great fate!" "
Xu Shu was good at talking, and the three generals present all nodded slightly when he said this.
Praising Guan, Zhang and Zhao in person is not as useful as praising Liu Bei.
Zhang Fei was even more happy. He took Zhang Xi's hand on the spot and said to Xu Shu, "Sir, since you have an old acquaintance with Yuan Chang, it will be easy to handle. To be honest, sir, the training of our lieutenant generals and other matters are all handled by me." Yuan Chang handles it all by himself. I, Lao Zhang, will beat the drum and gather the generals. Please take a look, sir. If you have any questions, you can just ask Yuan Chang directly."
With that said, Zhang Fei went out of his tent to gather the generals and order troops.
At this time, Guan Yu smiled slightly, stood up, saluted Xu Shu, and followed him out.
Zhao Yun was left to take care of Xu Shu and Zhang Xi.
Xu Shu was also a little confused. He turned his head slightly and looked at Zhang Xi.
In Xu Shu's impression, Zhang Xi was not someone who was proficient in military strategy... Why was he suddenly able to train troops? !
I still remember that when I was studying in Yingchuan, Zhang Xi was somewhat shallow academically due to his age, and his views on things were somewhat naive. He was not an outstanding student.
If we have to talk about the advantages, Xu Shu remembered that Zhang Xi seemed to have read a lot of books, and often chatted with people, gaining some knowledge from other people's words.
But this is not a good thing for a young man.
A child in his mid-teens who has a shallow life experience and has read some books consciously is prone to stubborn opinions on some matters and blindly follows people who are more knowledgeable than himself. He will respond directly to what others say without thinking. Just accept it.
This is not a scholarly attitude, nor is it a practical attitude.
At that time, Xu Shu and Zhang Xi met, one was because they were sitting next to each other, and the other was because children from poor families were in a group. After all, children from aristocratic families ignored them at all.
Why haven't we seen each other for four or five years? Did Zhang Xi learn a set of military training techniques from somewhere? !
This... needs to be observed carefully.
Although Xu Shu did not intend to do anything to offend his colleague as soon as he surrendered to Liu Shijun, this colleague was still an old acquaintance of his from the same hometown.
But military affairs are no small matter. If the training for a while is really embarrassing, then Xu Shu will not save face for Zhang Xi.
With this idea in mind, Xu Shu and Zhang Xi walked out of the military tent and began to watch the military drills.
Then Xu Shu couldn't understand.
Xu Shu had read a lot about military drills and had seen them in actual military situations... He had just come from Zhao Yun's camp. Cao Liang, the general in Zhao Yun's camp, was not just so straight. Standing and doing nothing.
If this is military training...then Xu Shu's more than ten years of study were in vain? !
Xu Shu didn't understand or understand.
But Xu Shu was not a reckless person after all.
Zhang Fei, the commander-in-chief of the army, is not a novice. He is also a general with a reputation throughout the world. Although he is often said to be brave and foolhardy, he is still in the army after all. It is impossible not to know what it is like to practice in the army.
He has approved this training method, so it must make sense.
Therefore, Xu Shu decided to hold his own for the time being and carefully observe the purpose of such training.
At this time, Zhang Fei was also afraid that some people would be confused if they didn't understand, so he quickly started to explain the purpose of this "military stance" to his second brother, and by the way, he told the embarrassing story of the day before yesterday.
It's not that Zhang Fei is not afraid of making a fool of himself here. The main thing is to let everyone know the extraordinaryness of this method of military training.
Noisy noisy, noisy noisy, noisy noisy, noisy noisy, Zhang Xi is always the marching commander under Zhang Fei's tent. In front of outsiders, Zhang Fei is still very protective of his family.
Well, the outsiders here are not talking about Er Ge and Zi Long...
By introducing Zhang Xi's purpose of training troops to Guan Yu, Xu Shu also understood the actual meaning of the so-called "standing military posture".
There is one thing to say, although the intention is good and Xu Shu also knows the importance of perseverance of army sergeants, Xu Shu still feels that this is a bit whimsical.
Just stand like this? !
"Sir, you don't know. Zhang Sima used this method to train new recruits who were less than two months old to follow orders and prohibitions. It's quite miraculous!"
Zilong is kind, a really kind person.
He didn't want Xu Shu to be confused, and he didn't want Zhang Xi to lose face by being questioned in public, so he told Xu Shu about it in advance.
This matter is nothing new. It was even a sensation in the ceremony at that time... It was simply because Xu Shu came late and no one told him about it.
Xu Shu was shocked at that time.
An army in two months? !
What kind of art of war is this, everyone? !
That's not right. When Sun Wu was training troops in the Kingdom of Wu, he didn't say that he would form an army in two months... Are you kidding me? Can this kid be better than Sun Wu? !
At the moment, Xu Shu was not in a hurry. He looked at it silently first and then talked about it after he had seen it clearly.
And slowly, Xu Shu began to see some clues.
This "military stance"...is a bit interesting.
Xu Shu even suggested to Guan Yu that the primary schools visiting today form a temporary group and join the school field.
Xu Shu wanted to take a look and confirm some of his conjectures through comparison.
