Under Guan Yu's order, Zhang Xiu naturally had no hesitation and immediately raised his gun to attack. Then the three thousand infantrymen followed Zhang Xiu closely and ran to the front of the formation, intending to show off his power under the city first.

The battle was called before the war, which was nothing more than devalued some enemy troops in terms of momentum.

Zhang Xiu was known as the King of Guns in the North. He was originally a native of Zuli, Wuwei County. He was the son of Zhang Ji, the general of the cavalry. He was also a warlord who separatist Wancheng at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He was one of the heroes at the end of the Han Dynasty. He was a representative figure of the Liangzhou wealthy group.

However, Zhang Xiu is very different from Zhang Xiu in history.

Zhang Xiu originally followed his subordinate Zhang Ji under Dong Zhuo and had been lingering in Xiliang. His position was not high and not low.

With Dong Zhuo's fall, Zhang Ji also became an independent Xiliang army in disguise.

Later, the dispute between Han Sui and Ma Teng made Zhang Ji choose to surrender to the court early. After all, when Dong Zhuo betrayed the court, some of his subordinates were unwilling to do so.

Zhang Xiu was one of them. Later, Zhang Xiu defected to Liu Bei and gradually became a rare general under Liu Bei.

Liu Bei saw Zhang Xiu's strength and knew that Zhang Xiu was not weak, so he was relieved and bold to let Zhang Xiu follow Guan Yu to attack Zhang Lu.

When Zhang Xiu stood up from the battlefield and gradually appeared under the city of Nanzheng, Zhang Lu's expression on the city tower became a little gloomy.

"Will people in the city dare to go out to fight?"

"Your grandfather Zhang Xiu is here, why don't you leave the city and die quickly!"

Zhang Xiu stood tall under the city of Nanzheng, shouting loudly at the city tower. He shouted like this, just a formality.

Zhang Xiu did not think that Zhang Lu on the city tower was so stupid, and he really sent people out of the city to fight. After all, standing on the city tower was not good at defending, so going out of the city to fight was a fool's behavior.

Originally, Zhang Lu on the city tower was indeed what Zhang Xiu said, intending to stay away from the door and let these enemy troops call.

Anyway, no matter how many people shouted Guan Yu under the city, he would not lose a few hairs. The scolding made them dry and had no effect on Zhang Lu.

But Zhang Lu's unwillingness to leave the city does not mean that Liu Zhang, who came here to supervise the battle, was unwilling.

Liu Zhang came here just to give the court a little color and let the court's men not underestimate Yizhou.

Liu Zhang had a seat on the city tower. While eating fruits, he listened to Zhang Xiu's clamoring under the city, and suddenly looked at Zhang Lu beside him.

Then he asked Zhang Lu without any good looks.

"Zhang Lu, the people under the city are calling out. Why don't you send people to fight him?"

Liu Zhang had some doubts.

Zhang Lu felt a little embarrassed, hesitated for Liu Zhang for a while, and replied.

"Young Master, it's not that I don't want to go out of the city to fight Guan Yu, but I'm worried that this is Guan Yu's trick. Once we send people out of the city, Guan Yu takes the opportunity to charge, and it will be difficult for us to come back."

Zhang Lu is just one of the reasons. More importantly, Zhang Lu has no powerful generals under him. If he really goes down to fight Guan Yu's army, Zhang Lu will not be sure of winning. If that happens, wouldn't he go down to die?

"What are you afraid of? The other party dares to call here, but he looks down on us. Are you afraid of him as a mere Guan Yu? Not to mention a young general under Guan Yu, even if Guan Yu comes here to call here in person, I am not afraid. Who is the person calling under the city?"

Liu Zhang has been here for several days and has never seen any battle scenes, so he wants to see the situation of the two armies on the battlefield.

"That man called himself Zhang Xiu, and was the general under Guan Yu's tent!"

Zhang Lu answered truthfully at Liu Zhang.

After hearing this, Liu Zhang turned his head and looked at his subordinates.

"You guys, can anyone dare to go down and fight Zhang Xiu?"

Behind Liu Zhang, there were several military generals who belonged to Liu Yan, who were all brought by Liu Zhang from Chengdu.

They are all the more important generals under Liu Yan, and Liu Zhang also believes in them more.

At the same time, I also want to try the strength of these people around me and see if I can fight against the soldiers under Guan Yu.

The people standing behind Liu Zhang were eager to try, but before they could speak, they were interrupted by an older general.

"Zhang Xiu?"

The man called Zhang Xiu's name and immediately attracted the attention of Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu and others.

Liu Zhang glanced at this guy and immediately recognized the man.

"Zhang Ren, do you want to fight?"

Liu Zhang glanced at the person in front of him and thought that Zhang Ren wanted to go out of the city to deal with the Zhang Xiu under the city.

"Young Master, I can fight. After all, Zhang Xiu is not difficult for me, and I am familiar with him."

Zhang Ren said something, which immediately stunned Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu and others.

I immediately looked at Zhang Ren with a curious look and started asking.

"Hey, Zhang Ren, do you know that Zhang Xiu? How strong is this guy?"

When Liu Zhang heard Zhang Ren say he knew Zhang Xiu, he immediately felt curious.

Zhang Ren really knows Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu were both disciples of the Gun Saint Tong Yuan when they were young.

Both Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu learned their skills under Tong Yuan and learned such martial arts. The two of them had been together for a long time, but since they left Tong Yuan, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ren had no contact.

Unexpectedly, meeting again would be on the battlefield.

"Young Master, Zhang Xiu, a few years ago, learned skills under the gun king Tongyuan. Speaking of which, we are considered brothers and the relationship is pretty good, but there are no fathers and sons on the battlefield. Although we are brothers and brothers, we are all their masters. Now we meet again, it is a break."

Zhang Ren himself is quite loyal and righteous, and did not intend to show mercy with Zhang Xiu on the battlefield because of Zhang Xiu's identity.

Since each one has its own masters and encounters it on the battlefield, it is natural to decide the winner.

On the one hand, Zhang Ren also wanted to check whether his junior brother had abandoned his martial arts in the past few years.

"Okay, since you are your acquaintance, then you can go to the battle. Zhang Ren, remember it for me. Don't embarrass me. Kill the enemy. I will be rewarded with a lot!"

After Zhang Ren asked for a war, Liu Zhang had no reason to refuse.

Liu Zhang originally wanted to make some contributions at this time. With Zhang Ren taking the initiative, he could bring some fun to this peaceful and boring life. Why didn't Liu Zhang do it?

"The last general will receive the order!"
