Chapter 116: General Zhang Bu
Inside the Zhang Mansion.
Since Zhang Qiongshan's death, the atmosphere in the mansion has been very depressing.
Zhang Youwei did not even let Zhang Qiongshan be buried, but instead placed Zhang Qiongshan's coffin in a Beppu.
Just after killing Wu Nian, he took Wu Nian's head to pay tribute to Zhang Qiongshan.
But there was no good news, but bad news came continuously.
The three-person group sent by the Zhang family to Beishan Fort not only did not come back, but also heard that they were killed by Wu Nian. The entire Beishan Fort Hundred House, from the Hundred Houses to the General Banners to ordinary military households, seemed to be in the same mind as Wu Nian.
This was completely beyond Zhang Youwei's expectations.
In the main hall, Zhang Youwei was wearing plain clothes and sat on the Taishi chair. Now he had calmed down, but his face was terrible cold.
He was waiting for someone to wait for a general from the Zhang family.
Half of Zhang has someone on the official side, but he does not have any connections in the military households. But half of Zhang has such a large force, and there are always some talents under his command.
Moreover, although Zhang Youwei did nothing, his father was a person with a unique vision.
His father thought that Liaodong would be in chaos and the scholarly family could not guarantee the inheritance of half of Zhang. Half of Zhang still needed force. So he sent many Zhang's children to practice martial arts.
People like Zhang Ningding, although they are not ordinary people, are actually not the core of the Zhang family's force.
The real core of the Zhang family's force is named Zhang Bu. He is Zhang Youwei's grandfather's cousin. He is 38 years old this year and is the most young and strong.
Zhang Bu has been very strong since childhood and has extraordinary strength. When he was a teenager, he followed the guards at home to practice martial arts. After he grew up, he was sent to the Liaodong generals to learn horse spears, riding skills, and command troops.
Half of Zhang also had a private relationship with the Mongols. Zhang Bu had been to the Mongols and studied with the Mongols.
Zhang Youwei is of course the absolute core of half of Zhang, the banner.
However, Zhang Bu is the core of the Zhang family's military power and the real general. He is many times stronger than Zhang Ningding and others.
During this period, Zhang Bu went to do something. Zhang Youwei then asked Zhang Ningding to lead his troops to contact Wu Nian, if Zhang Bu was there.
"If it were my brother Zhang Bu and Wu Nian, you would have fallen to the ground long ago." Zhang Youwei gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
At this moment, a steady sound of footsteps sounded. Zhang Youwei's eyes lit up and he quickly looked up and saw a bear and tiger strode in.
He is really a bear and tiger, and he is 1.9 meters tall.
A face with a Chinese character is powerful without anger, a pair of tiger eyes shining brightly, and a mouth full of curly beard adds power. His shoulders are very wide than ordinary people, with a bear's back and a tiger's waist, and his arms are thick and long, just like ape's arms.
These ape arms are very good at bending their bows and shooting arrows, and the horse spear is in his hands, lifting the weight easily and being invincible.
"Brother Bu. You are finally back." Zhang Youwei stood up and walked quickly to Zhang Bu, raised his hands and placed them on Zhang Bu's shoulders.
In front of this giant, Zhang Youwei was like a woman, a little bird leaning on others.
"Brother, I have heard about Qiongshan. Give me a thousand soldiers and horses. I will eat and drink and rest for a day. I will go to Beishan Fort tomorrow and kill Wu Nian."
Zhang Bu's voice was extremely majestic, his eyes were shining with cold light, and his momentum was resolute.
"Okay. Brother Bu is here. Wu Nian is just a jumping clown. Qiongshan's great revenge can be avenged." Zhang Youwei listened to his cousin's powerful voice and immediately became full of strength. He patted Zhang Bu's shoulders heavily and held Zhang Bu's hand and said, "Let's go. We brothers haven't been together for a long time. Let's have a drink."
"Okay." Zhang Bu nodded happily and agreed.
In this meal, Zhang Bu ate a full two kilograms of beef, a duck, three kilograms of old wine, and a few steamed buns. After eating, he took a walk, fell asleep and regained his energy.
Early the next morning, half of Zhang did not hide it at all, and gathered a thousand soldiers openly, including those wearing armor and leather armor.
In addition, some domestic slaves and auxiliary soldiers and large supplies of trucks gathered at the south gate of the city.
The flags of the character "Zhang" were also raised, flying in the wind, making noises, like evil dragons with teeth and claws, soaring into the sky.
Under the flag.
Zhang Bu was wearing bright light armor, holding a horse spear that was eight feet long, and was sitting on a black horse with four-hoofed snow-white hooves, majestic.
Zhang Youwei and the county magistrate Bao Wei saw him off, and there were many people watching around.
"Brother Bu. The flag is victorious." Zhang Youwei ordered people to take their daughter Hong, who had been treasured for twenty years, poured it into a wine bowl, and handed it to Zhang Bu.
Zhang Bu bent down and reached out to take it, drank it in one gulp, then threw the bowl, and with a snap, it was so powerful.
"Let's go." Zhang Bule's horse headed south and rode his horse away. The team roared and then headed towards Beishan Fort.
County Magistrate Bao Wei was sweating from cold sweat and wet his clothes.
Troubled times, really turbulent times.
The private soldiers of the Zhang family dared to attack the Chu military household system like Beishan Fort.
The people around were watching the fun.
"Half Zhang has indeed accumulated troops over the years, and his troops are strong and powerful. Wu Nian is so bold that he dared to kill half of Zhang's third young master. But he has also ended here. I have been to Beishan Fort, and the city walls are leaking, so even the rats can't stop him. How could it be that half of Zhang's private soldiers?"
"Yes. Especially Zhang Bu. He is really amazing. In the entire Liaodong, he is a famous figure. He is much more powerful than many military officers who come from generals."
"Wu Nian is also a hero, but unfortunately he is too sharp. As the saying goes, it is easy to break even if he is tough. He is too strong and does not understand the principle of hiding a sword in the box."
People were talking about it.
The news that Zhang Qiongshan was killed by Wu Nian has spread. But half of Zhang was not stupid, and he did not cheat Wu Nian first and the news that one hundred soldiers were killed by Wu Nian.
One hundred soldiers and one Zhang Ningding were killed by a small flag.
Too shameless.
People are full of pessimism about Wu Nian's survival.
Dead.
It's also a pity.
It’s been so many years since there have been people who resisted half of Zhang, but they are all like splashes, too small and too short. Only Wu Nian is so vigorous.
This is a hero.
Beishan Fort.
Beishan Fort is so small, and a little movement can spread throughout the castle. The official paid, and Li Yong came out to organize people to repair the city wall.
The news has spread long ago.
The military households in Beishan Fort are miserable. Although there are fields outside the fort, many of them are officials. The current super-large landlord is Wu Nian.
Although Wu Nian asked someone to pay for farm work, he couldn't resist the monks' too much porridge. There were too many people who had nothing to do.
When the official heard that he wanted to repair the city wall, he would not care about men, women, young and old, so he signed up.
Li Yong organized 300 men in half a day, and then assigned tasks to repair the city wall. No, it was almost rebuilding the city wall.
The walls of Beishan Fort have no value for repair.
Too shabby.
This kind of work cannot be completed in one or two days, at least for several months.
As for ramming the earth, it means constantly pounding the soil, adding a little glutinous rice, and adding some wood as a skeleton, which is a hard work.
