Not long after Lu Su personally led the Liangzhou team to arrive, the Yongzhou team and the Yizhou team came to Chang'an one after another.
Compared with the Liangzhou contestants, Liu Zhang did not have too much expectations for the Yizhou and Yongzhou teams.
Especially on the list of Yizhou participants, there was not a single name that Liu Zhang was familiar with.
Liu Zhang was not too surprised by this situation.
Liu Zhang started in Yizhou, and within a few years, he had already exhausted all the main generals in Yizhou.
Furthermore, Yizhou is located in the rear area and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The only offensive route is garrisoned by the Eastern Army.
There is no decent army in Yizhou, and most of them are county soldiers.
Rising stars such as Wang Ping, Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi, Ma Zhong, etc. who have been recorded in history are either just born or have not yet been born!
The ninth year of Jian'an was not the time for them to become famous.
As for why the Yongzhou team arrived so hesitantly, the main reason is that almost all of the team members are military veterans.
Such as Yan Yan who was stationed in Wuguan, Gao Pei and Yang Huai, the Yizhou warriors stationed in Beidi County, etc.
Of course, there are also generals like Gao Yan who have followed Liu Zhang for many years but failed this time.
In short, it was not beyond Liu Zhang's expectation at all.
There was neither surprise nor too much frustration.
Then ten-man teams from the Chinese Army, the Northern Army, and the Imperial Guard came to Chang'an City one after another.
The Chinese army was led by Zhao Yun, Ma Yue, Xia Houlan and others.
The imperial guards were led by Dian Wei, Gao Shun, Xu Huang, Wu Yi and Wenpin who surrendered.
The Chinese Army and the Imperial Guard were quite satisfactory. They were almost all top generals and generals with strong martial arts skills.
This was completely within Liu Zhang's expectation.
However, there seems to be nothing outstanding about the Chinese army, but Liu Zhang knew how powerful the Chinese army was.
The rear general Zhao Yun alone could cause so much bloodshed!
Finally, there is the Northern Army.
Among the three Guanzhong legions, only the Northern Army has the strongest paper strength among the three legions.
There are generals from Yuancong including Taishi Ci.
Ma Chao, Pang De and other Xiliang warriors.
Lei Tong, Lingbao and other outstanding generals of the Yizhou faction.
And, a person who made Liu Zhang's eyes light up.
Jiang囧, Jiang Zhongyi.
If it weren't for the infant Jiang Wei, it would be difficult for Jiang Juan to enter Liu Zhang's sight.
The reason is also very simple. Jiang Juan is almost an unknown figure.
The only thing recorded in history is that he would rather die than surrender.
Other than that, there is nothing else that shines.
But in Liu Zhang's eyes, Jiang Wei is Jiang Juan's biggest shining point.
The starting point for arranging Jiang Juan to the Northern Army was entirely for the consideration of Jiang Wei in the future.
Liu Zhang never thought too much about Jiang Juan's personal problems from beginning to end.
At most, it gives an impression of some courage.
But when Jiang Juan stood in front of Liu Zhang again, it was indeed beyond Liu Zhang's expectations.
According to the previous list, Jiang Juan does not exist.
Moreover, Jiang Juan's extremely weird and hard-to-find expression also makes people confused.
Out of curiosity, Liu Zhang asked Tai Shici, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army, to learn about the situation.
Unexpectedly, the process was quite twists and turns!
At the beginning of the selection process for the Northern Army, Jiang Juan was very unlucky. He suddenly fell ill and had to recuperate at home.
So the opportunity was missed.
After recovering from the illness, Jiang Juan was extremely unwilling and took the initiative to find Tai Shici for a chance.
Taishi Ci refused the request without even thinking about it.
As the commander-in-chief of the 50,000-strong Northern Army, if you want to convince the people, you must be fair and impartial.
Even if you don't have a selfless character like Gao Shun, you still have to have this attitude.
Jiang Juan missed the selection due to personal problems and had nothing to do with the entire Northern Army. There was no reason for others to pay for his personal problems.
If Taishi Ci opens an advantage for him today, how can he refuse if someone comes to him in the future?
When Jiang Yan heard this, he suddenly became pale.
It can be condensed into three words. Why?
Although it sounded a bit unpleasant, everything he said made sense and left Jiang Juan no room for refutation.
With no choice but to retreat sadly.
At this moment, Taishi Ci called out to Jiang Juan.
and came up with a solution.
Let Jiang Juan compete with him.
All because Jiang Juan was personally sent to the Northern Army by King Liu Zhang of Qin.
Even if Liu Zhang didn't give Taishi Ci a word of instruction, Taishi Ci had to consider the face of King Qin.
Tai Shici personally competed with Jiang Juan, which was a clever plan that killed two birds with one stone.
If Jiang Juan is excellent in martial arts and indeed has great abilities, Taishi Ci can help Jiang Juan by saying that it is the king of Qin's national plan to select military generals.
On the contrary, Jiang Juan's martial arts skills are not worth mentioning, and he was defeated by Taishi Ci in two or three blows. Naturally, Jiang Juan can be rejected on the grounds that his martial arts skills are insufficient.
Even if Liu Zhang asked him about it someday, Taishi Ci could still explain it by saying that he had given him a chance.
When Jiang Yan heard this, he immediately beamed and almost jumped up excitedly.
Jiang Juan is quite confident in his personal martial arts skills.
He has long wanted to learn the martial arts of Qin's top generals and his immediate boss, Taishi Ci.
However, the identity gap was too big and he had no friendship with Tai Shi Ci, so Jiang Juan never had a chance.
Furthermore, Jiang Juan is a bit conceited personally.
He has always firmly believed that with his own strength, he can occupy a place in the Qin army.
But there are no signs of war now or in the coming years.
Without the opportunity to go to the battlefield, it would be difficult for a general to be promoted.
In an extremely unwilling and helpless situation, news of the competition suddenly came.
It was no different from Liu Zhang personally setting up the ladder for him to ascend to heaven!
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. As the competition approached, Jiang Juan fell ill.
This competition can almost be regarded as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to change your destiny!
This is also the main reason why Jiang Juan cannot give up easily.
There are also some reasons for Jiang Juan’s personal appearance.
Mainly because of Qin Wang Liu Zhang.
Jiang Juan was named by Liu Zhang to find Chang'an, but since the meeting, he has been completely forgotten.
This hit Jiang Juan, who had a strong self-esteem.
Jiang Juan did not want to rely on Liu Zhang's relationship to rise to the top of the Qin Kingdom. He just wanted a platform to display his skills and rely on his own efforts to gain the attention of the King of Qin.
Since joining the Northern Army, it has never been mentioned that Liu Zhang personally appointed him, let alone having any relationship with Liu Zhang.
Afraid of being pointed at from behind.
If this competition hadn't been of vital importance to Jiang Juan, it would have been as much as his own life!
Jiang Juan would not take the initiative to come to Taishi Ci to make a request.
Therefore, Jiang Juan agreed to Tai Shici's one-on-one challenge without any hesitation.
And he reciprocated the favor and immediately expressed his attitude.
If I can't defeat Tai Shi Ci, I am willing to give up this opportunity and not cause any trouble to Tai Shi Ci.
But these words also completely angered Tai Shici.
As the commander-in-chief of an army, he was so questioned and provoked by his subordinates!
Taishi Ci has followed Liu Zhang and conquered the world for decades. What kind of opponent has he not seen?
Although I dare not say that his martial arts skills are top-notch, he is also a being who has fought against the God of War Lu Bu.
How can you be afraid of a little Jiang Ji?
