The ancients often worried that they would not meet a wise monarch, but now Huang was lucky enough to meet him. I will do my best to serve my lord!
----Records of the Historian: Xu Huang, Marquis Zhuang
"Since you are in such a good mood, how dare Wu Jun not accompany you? Someone, hang an arrow target on the willow tree a hundred steps ahead. Let me compare archery skills with this warrior.”
"I'll go!" Zhao Yu, who was standing behind Wu Jun, appeared out of nowhere. She quickly took an arrow target from a soldier and ran forward. She wanted to see how good her Brother Jun and the blue-clothed young man's archery skills were.
Soon, a red target was hung on a willow tree a hundred steps away from the drill ground. "Hero, please!" Wu Jun saw that the blue youth was domineering and wanted him to shoot first.
"General, you don't have to be humble. Please shoot first!”The blue-robed young man rejected Wu Jun's offer.
When Wu Jun heard this, he did not take out the Sun-Breaking Bow on his back. Instead, he immediately took a bow from a subordinate beside him and nocked an arrow. With a swoosh, the arrow tip hit the bullseye of the red target, winning the cheers of his subordinates.
"General, it's not surprising that you hit the bullseye," the blue youth said disapprovingly. Let's see if the next arrow can hit the entire target!”After saying that, the blue youth drew his bow and nocked an arrow. He looked at the willow branch and shot. The arrow shot out by the blue youth was like a shooting star that shot through the willow branch that was hanging the target, and the target fell to the ground. The blue youth rode his horse to pick up the target and carried it on his shoulder. He then rode to the platform and said to the Wu Army,"Thank you, General, for the target!"”Wu Jun and all the soldiers were envious.
Wu Jun knew that it was extremely difficult to shoot a willow branch. To pick one among countless willow branches, one had to have a pair of sharp eyes in a chaotic background. If he missed, he would be embarrassed in front of everyone. The blue-clothed young man would definitely have more than 90% confidence in shooting. It could be seen that the blue-clothed young man's archery skills were definitely first-class.
Wu Jun was attracted by the blue youth's superb archery skills. The pride in his heart could not help but be born. He turned to a soldier and said,"Bring me my halberd!" Wu Jun held the Flying Dragon Divine Halberd in his hand and said to the blue youth,""A warrior's archery skills are indeed superb, Jun deeply admires! Today, Zhang Jun and the strong man compared notes on archery.”
Then, Wu Jun ordered the soldiers around him to take the Flying Dragon Divine Halberd. After they ran to a distance of more than 1,000 meters outside the gate of the drill ground, Wu Jun looked back at the blue youth and the soldiers and said,"The gate of the drill ground is about a thousand meters away from the central army. If you shoot three arrows here and one of them hits the small hole in the halberd, will you be convinced? If Zhang Jun's three arrows miss, Zhang Jun is willing to give up the position of Wei Wei to this strong man.”The blue youth thought to himself, The halberd is more than a thousand meters away, how can it be easily hit? If General Wu could hit the target, it would only mean that his archery skills were several times better than his. He would definitely be convinced.”The blue youth said to Wu Jun,""General, didn't you say that you were only going to spar with me in archery? Why use your official position as a bet? If you can hit it, I'm willing to follow you for the rest of my life. If something happens to you, don't give up your position. General, please!"
Wu Jun looked at the blue youth with admiration and said with a smile,"Good! It's a deal!" After saying that. Wu Jun took out the Sun-Breaking Bow from his back, rolled up his sleeves, nocked three Cloud-Piercing Arrows, and drew a full moon bow. He shouted,"Fire!" The bow is drawn like the autumn moon flying in the sky, and the arrow falls like a meteor. The three arrows accurately pierced through the small holes on the halberd. The three Cloud-Piercing Arrows pierced through the small holes on the halberd and tore through the air. With an ear-piercing sound of wind, they flew like lightning towards a big tree a hundred steps behind the Flying Dragon Divine Halberd. With a loud crack, the 40-centimeter-wide tree was forcibly broken by the arrow, leaving everyone dumbstruck. Soon after, cheers could be heard from both inside and outside the school grounds. Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, who had already chosen their own strong soldiers, were also attracted by the cheers. At the same time, they saw their brother's wonderful scene and cheered in unison,"Big brother, what good archery! Big brother, Divine Arrow! Big brother, Divine Arrow!" The hundreds of soldiers inside and outside the school grounds cheered along with Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao,"General's Divine Arrow! General's Divine Arrow!" Later generations wrote a poem praising him:
Wei Wei's divine archery is rare in the world. Three arrows on the drill ground can stabilize the military prestige.
Cloud Piercer really bullied Houyi, and his precious bow was more powerful than Yuji.
The sun-breaking string sounds at the place where the bow is opened, and the flying arrow carved with feathers arrives.
God's eyes pierced through the halberd from afar, and millions of brave soldiers took off their clothes.
The blue-robed young man looked at Wu Jun's godlike archery skills and realized that his shot was as ridiculous as " showing off his skills in front of an expert ". He could not help but be silent for a while. However, he remembered that General Wu's martial arts and archery skills were so superb that it was rare in the world. It was not a shameful thing for him to lose to him. Therefore, he put down the bow and arrow in his hand and walked to Wu Jun. He knelt down on both knees, cupped his fists, and kowtowed."Xu Huang greets the lord! I'm willing to follow my lord for the rest of my life and never betray him! I hope my lord can forgive Huang for his disrespect just now!”
When Wu Jun heard this, he realized that the muscular blue youth was Xu Huang. No wonder his martial arts and archery skills were so superb. In the history books, he was one of Cao Aman's "Five Generals", ranked second only after Zhang Liao. Xu Huang (?- 227), the word Gongming, Hedong Yang County (now southeast of Hongdong County, Shanxi Province) people. Xu Huang had followed Cao Cao for many years and had made many contributions. He had been appointed as a deputy general, a partial general, a general of Hengye, and a general of Pingkou. In the history books, Xu Huang was able to fight the "Tiger Maniac" Xu Chu for 50 rounds and come to a draw. Before the battle of Guandu, he joined the army to defeat Yan Liang and led the army to kill Wen Chou, the head of Hebei's famous generals. He even fought more than 80 rounds with the Warrior Sage Guan Yu. Although Guan Yu was injured at the time, he was able to fight with this "murderer" until 80 rounds and had the upper hand. This showed that Xu Huang's martial arts skills were quite superb. He was simply "strong."
"So the warrior is Gongming? Zhang Jun also heard the general's name for a long time, only regret not to meet. Unexpectedly today see, GongMing really let Zhang Jun admire unceasingly.”Wu Jun immediately helped Xu Huang up from the ground and said with a smile.
"Thank you for your praise, my lord! Compared to his lord, that little trick of his was really not worth mentioning!”
"Gongming, there's no need to be too humble! In the entire world, there were less than ten people who could defeat Gongming. Gongming doesn't have to call Jun Lord. From now on, we are brothers!”When Wu Jun saw Xu Huang lose to him, his expression was a little gloomy. He didn't want Xu Huang to be traumatized. A general or a commander of an army hated having a shadow in their heart, so they immediately encouraged Xu Huang.
"Thank you, my lord, for thinking so highly of me! However, the etiquette of seniority cannot be abolished! Moreover, I have already made it clear to my lord just now. I am not a person who goes back on his word. I hope my lord will fulfill my wish!”Xu Huang still insisted on calling Wu Jun "Lord". Wu Jun had no choice but to say,"Gongming, please rise! Jun will promise you. However, for now, it's better to call me 'General' in front of outsiders. Otherwise, it will cause unnecessary trouble! Gongming, this is my second brother, Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong, third brother, Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan, and younger sister, Zhao Yu. Second and third brother are now the guards. Second brother, third brother, this is Xu Huang, Xu Gongming. From now on, we are brothers.”Wu Jun pointed at his second brother, third brother, and Zhao Yu as he introduced them to Xu Huang.
"Xu Huang greets Second General, Third General, and Miss Zhao! Greetings, sir." Xu Huang cupped his hands at Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao.
"Gongming, there's no need to be so polite. Yun Yi often hears Big Brother mention Gongming's name. The three of us have admired Gongming for a long time.”Zhao Yun said as she pulled Xu Huang.
"That's right, Gongming. We'll be a family from now on.”His third brother, Zhang Liao, also said to Xu Huang.
Zhao Yu, who was at the side, made a face at everyone and said,"Brother Jun is so powerful. In the future, there will be another super expert to play with Xiao Yu. Big Brother Xu is really amazing."
"Good! Second brother, third brother, have you found any talents?”Wu Jun asked Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao. He hoped that his second and third brothers would be able to find more fierce generals like Xu Huang.
"Reporting to Big Brother, I didn't find a brave general like Gongming, but there is a person with decent skills. His name is Wu Fu, and he is currently a Yue Cavalry Lieutenant.”"I haven't found any talents either. Only the deputy general Li Hu and Li Xianyong who were originally recruiting in Jizhou are quite skilled.”When Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao heard their big brother's question, they quickly answered,"Wu Fu (Li Hu), quickly come over and greet Lord Wei!”
"I, Wu Fu (Li Hu), pay my respects to Lord Wei Wei and Lord Left and Right Commanders!”Two muscular young men stood out from behind Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao and bowed to Wu Jun, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Liao.
"I know Li Hu and Li Xianyong. We've met before in Zhao Nation Town of Ji Prefecture.”
"Thank you for remembering me, Wei Wei!”
"You are the Yue Cavalry Lieutenant Wu Fu and Wu De Yu?”Wu Jun looked at the youth who was not very tall and asked. He could not believe that the person standing in front of him was Wu Fuwu, who was recorded in the history books as "because he saw the traitor Dong Zhuo being cruel and heartless, he was indignant and put on a small armor and hid a short knife under his court clothes. He wanted to kill Dong Zhuo when he saw him".
"Yes, I am. I wonder how Lord Wei learned of Fu's name?”Wu Fu knew that he was just a small soldier, but he was very puzzled as to how the Wei Wei knew him.
"I heard that the Yue Cavalry Lieutenant Wu Fu and Wu Deyu are loyal and kind, so I know.”Wu Jun realized that he had let it slip and quickly brushed it off." Now, I'll appoint Li Hu and Li Xianyong as the Commandant of the Rushing Cavalry. They'll be the deputy general under my third brother, Zhang Liao. Woodford continued to serve as the captain of the Yue Cavalry, serving as the deputy general under his second brother, Zhao Yun. The two of you go and reorganize your subordinates first. We will start training tomorrow.”
"This general Wu Fu (Li Hu), thank you for your reward, Lord Wei Wei. This general will go and reorganize my subordinates.”Wu Fu and Li Hu led the crowd to bid farewell.
"Gongming, I recommend you to be the commander of the cavalry capital. You will be my deputy for now. After a period of time, I will let you take charge. I see that you don't have anywhere to stay now, so why don't you come with us to the Guard Commandery for the time being? Tonight, Second Brother, Third Brother, and I will welcome Gongming and celebrate his joining!”
"Thank you, my lord! The ancients often worried that they would not meet a wise monarch, but now Huang was lucky enough to meet him. I will do my best to serve my lord!”Xu Huang was once again moved by Wu Jun's trust. He bowed deeply, and tears actually flashed in his tiger eyes.
"Good! Second Brother, Third Brother, Gongming, Xiao Yu, let's return to the Guard Commandery first.”Wu Jun pulled Xu Huang, his second brother, third brother, and his little sister Yu 'er as they ran towards the Guard Commandery.
