There was a commotion outside the Dian Military Academy. Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and a few other officers heard the noise and walked out. They saw a dozen soldiers blocking a burly man. They couldn't see him clearly from afar. When they walked in, they saw that the burly man's face was red and he looked very imposing.
"What is it?" Zhang Fei shouted. A patrolling soldier ran up and said,"Lord Lieutenant, there is a red-faced man outside who wants to barge in. He even said that he and Deacon Zhao are old friends.”When Zhao Yun heard this, she immediately looked outside. She really knew him!
"Brother Changsheng!" Zhao Yun shouted, her heart filled with indescribable joy. Zhang Fei looked at Zhao Yun's appearance and felt a wave of doubt in his heart. He also looked at the man.
"How is Zilong recently?" The man shouted through the crowd. Zhang Fei saw that they really knew each other, so he said,"Let him in." The soldiers responded and let the red-faced man enter the gate of the drill ground.
"Brother Zhang, let me introduce you. This is the expert I told you about who fought me to a draw. His surname is Guan, and his name is Yu, also known as Changsheng.”Zhao Yun was very happy to see Guan Yu. She pulled Guan Yu's hand and walked towards Zhang Fei.
"Changsheng, let me introduce you. This is the lieutenant of Anping County. His surname is Zhang Fei and he is an expert. The last time we parted ways, I was defeated by him at the Iron Casting Manor in Zhongshan County.”Zhao Yun's every word and sentence caused Guan Yu to constantly size up Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei also carefully looked at the red-faced man in front of him. This man was about an inch taller than Zhang Fei, and he was a figure like an iron tower.
Guan Yu cupped his hands at Zhang Fei and said,""I've long heard of Zhang Yide's bravery. It's my honor to meet you today.”Zhang Fei didn't stand on ceremony and invited Guan Yu in.
"I've changed my surname. I'm no longer called Changsheng. My surname is Yunchang. A few days ago, I killed a fierce man and escaped from Jie Liang. I'm trying to find a way out.”Guan Yu was direct and didn't beat around the bush. The brothers of the Zhang family were impressed by his true personality.
"I really don't dare to. Zilong has only joined Yi De for a few days. If he wants to join, he should talk to Yi De.”Zhao Yun blushed when she heard Guan Yu's words. She had just relied on Zhang Fei to solve a problem, so how could she possibly be able to help Guan Yu?
"This matter is easy to discuss. If Chief Yun doesn't think that Zhang Fei is too small, then let's just stay here for a while.”Zhang Fei said with a smile. Guan Yu saw that Zhang Fei was sincere and thanked him again. "I'll go back and fetch my adoptive parents before coming back to report my death!"”
Zhang Fei frowned when he heard that. Guan Yu thought that Zhang Fei was unhappy and was furious. He thought that he had misjudged Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei was actually a narrow-minded person. Just as he was about to speak, Zhang Fei said,"What if that vicious person comes to make things difficult for Chief Yun? Why don't I send someone to pick up Chief Yun's parents and avoid some trouble?”
When Guan Yu heard Zhang Fei's words, his face turned hot. Fortunately, his face was already red, so no one could tell. Suddenly, Guan Yu knelt down on one knee and said,""This Guan is ignorant, please forgive this Guan's sins!”
Zhang Fei and the others were stunned. Where did this sin come from? Zhang Fei quickly helped him up and said,"What's your crime?"”
"When I saw Brother Zhang frown just now, I thought that you didn't like me leaving without any merit. I didn't expect that you were worried about my life. I'm really using the heart of a villain to measure the belly of a gentleman. I'm ashamed!”After saying that, Guan Yu turned his head away, not daring to look at Zhang Fei.
"Hahahaha!" Zhang Fei laughed out loud and said," Originally, if you didn't tell me what happened, only the heavens and earth would know. However, you didn't care about what people said and told me honestly. This shows that you're a true gentleman and worthy of the word hero."”As he spoke, he did not care about the surprised looks of the others and pulled Guan Yu towards the inner hall.
After Zhang Fei led everyone into the inner hall, everyone sat down in turn. Guan Yu had just arrived, so Zhang Fei asked someone to add a seat and thanked him again, making everyone really embarrassed.
"Brother Guan doesn't need to be so polite here. The people here are all straightforward men, so there's no need to be so formal.”Zhang Feng stood up and said with a smile. Guan Yu nodded as he thought that this place was really different from other places.
Hearing that Zhang Fei was going to exterminate the bandits in a few days, Guan Yu immediately requested to go. Zhang Fei was very relieved, but he still said,"A wanderer travels ten thousand miles, a loving mother worries for a thousand days. Yun Zhang should go back and bring his parents over first. I don't care about these thieves. However, he still had to be careful along the way!”Guan Yu nodded. Zhang Fei didn't say anything more. He asked someone to collect a few catties of gold and silver and wrapped them up before giving them to Guan Yu. Guan Yu was also in a poor state now, so he didn't refuse and accepted them.
"Let's send Brother Guan off." Zhang Fei stood up and sent Guan Yu out. He also asked someone to prepare a better horse. After they left the city gate, Zhang Ji asked Zhang Fei,""Brother Fei, what if he doesn't keep his word and doesn't come back with the gold and silver?”
Zhang Fei put his hands on his waist and said with a smile," Xiaowu, do you know that there is such a person in this world? He is a born hero. Loyalty comes first. Guan Yunzhang is that kind of person. I am very glad that I made friends with him. This is my great fortune." Watch closely. Maybe in three or four years, or maybe four or five years, this Guan Yunzhang will definitely be a world-famous hero!”Zhao Yun was very surprised by Zhang Fei's words. He knew Guan Yu's temperament, but Zhang Fei and Guan Yu had only known each other for less than ten minutes. How could he know what kind of person Guan Yu was? Moreover, if Guan Yunzhang was a famous figure in the future, would you, Zhang Yide, be unknown?
A few days later, after Zhang Fei explored Lu Fang's water stronghold, he decided to make his move today. After the generals 'troops arrived at the designated location, Zhang Fei and Zhang Ji led a group of troops to lie in ambush on a mountain one mile away from the water stronghold. Zang Hong could be considered to have been a lieutenant in Zhongshan County before. He was still a decent soldier. Zhang Fei could not help but nod his head when he saw this.
At noon, it was time for the bandits in the water stronghold to eat. Zang Hong led more than a thousand men and horses towards the water stronghold. When they were three to four hundred feet away, they began to curse. From afar, Zhang Fei could hear the broken gong voice. It was really loud.
The gate of the water stronghold opened in a short while, and a young boy who looked about the same age as Zhang Ji jumped out. He was riding on a yellow-maned horse and shouted,"Where did this scoundrel come from? He dared to come here with so few troops to court death!”
"Little kid, I haven't married yet. Why don't you be my godson? I see that you have a dignified appearance. It's a pity that you're a thief in this landscape. It's better for you to follow your Grandpa Zang. Your future is very good!”As he spoke, Zang Hong started laughing out loud with a shameless look on his face. If anyone else saw this, they would definitely laugh their heads off. This Zang Hong was really good at talking and could drive people mad with anger. As expected, that kid called some men from the village and charged towards Zang Hong. "You rascal!" he shouted. I'll let you know how powerful your Lu family's young master is!”When Zhang Fei heard this, he knew that this kid must be Lu Fang's descendant. However, he also praised this kid in his heart for having the same drive as Xiaowu. He would also become a general in the future!
Zang Hong laughed secretly in his heart. He first suppressed the crowd for a while. Seeing that more and more people were surging into the stronghold, Zang Hong shouted,"The bandits are powerful, retreat!" As he spoke, he led his men and horses towards Oxtail Valley. The general was aggressive as he led about six to seven thousand bandits towards Oxtail Valley.
"Young Master, that is Oxtail Valley. Could it be that there are government troops lying in ambush there, waiting for us to set a trap?”A thief leader said to the general.
"Definitely not! Didn't you see the state of those government troops? Have you heard of any powerful government troops in Anping? Even that Zhang Yi De at the Zhang Village entrance is just a boorish man. How could he have any schemes?”As he spoke, he rode his horse forward again. The people around him heard that it made sense, so they were not worried anymore.
Zang Hong led his men into the Oxtail Valley. Zhao Yun and Zhang Feng saw the bandits enter the narrow path. After they were halfway through, Zhao Yun gave an order and the boulders on the mountain fell down, killing many people. In just a few breaths, the end of the valley was blocked. Those inside couldn't come out, and those outside couldn't enter.
"Brothers, let's fight side by side! Yours Truly is stuck inside!" Seeing that the valley was blocked, some bandits outside shouted at once; however, they saw Zhao Yun and Zhang Feng's troops rushing down from the mountain. Only after a short while, Zhao Yun had already killed some bandits.?At the same time, they also started fighting in the valley. After Zhang Yun and Zhang Ping joined Zang Hong's forces, they turned around and charged at the general. The general was too young. Seeing that his back path was blocked, the army in front panicked. He didn't call out to the people around him and fought on his own.
"Surrender!" Zhang Yunchao immediately shouted. Resisting the death penalty!" After saying that, he started fighting with Zhang Ping. The Snake Lance in his hand turned red. Seeing that the Zhang brothers were so brave, Zang Hong followed them. Originally, his skills had fallen behind for many years and he had not trained well, so he was still a little afraid. However, with a tiger leading, he was not afraid of the wolves. After a few exchanges, his military uniform was dyed red. Although the soldiers behind him were new recruits, when they saw the bravery of their commander, their blood rushed to their heads. They waved the long spear and big knife in their hands non-stop. He even shouted,"I won't kill anyone who surrenders!”，This move was indeed effective. Although the thief was fierce, many of them surrendered. After Zhang Yun and the general fought for a few rounds and could not determine the winner, Zhang Ping followed up with a spear in the snow and knocked the general off his horse. When the surrounding soldiers saw the general fall, they rushed up and captured him. When the surrounding thieves saw that their leader had been captured, they surrendered. Zhang Yun, Zang Hong, and the others immediately burst into laughter. They were so happy!
At this moment, the battle with the water bandits outside the valley had just begun.
