The Three Kingdoms started from fooling Jia Xu

Chapter 185 The Unknown Cavalry (for Subscription)

Wu County, Qu'e County.

Outside Zhaojia Village, there are thousands of hectares of fertile land.

At this time, most of the spring plowing has passed, but the people in the village still go out early and return late. There is no other way. The world is in constant war and heavy taxes. They can only reclaim wasteland.

These common people are carrying hoes, and it is relatively difficult to reclaim the wasteland.

One of the women straightened up, wiped the sweat from her forehead, looked at the eight-foot strong man not far away and said, "Xiaofan, why do you think you have returned home with all your abilities?"

"If you want me to say, if you want to live a good life, you still have to join the army and make meritorious service. When the time comes, you will be appointed as a general, and you can also bless your wife and children, so that your parents can also take care of themselves. How wonderful it is."

Zhao Fan, who was buried in land reclamation, paused for a moment, and then a sneer appeared on his face, maybe it was ridicule, not for this woman, but for the world.

He joined the army in his early years, and thought that with his martial arts skills, even if he couldn't be a general, he could be a song commander, but after joining the army for several months, he was actually just a cavalry pawn.

Afterwards, he went through a deadly battle, was outnumbered, and returned home seriously injured.

If it weren't for his fate, he would have already left this troubled world.

Thinking of this, Zhao Fan shook his head and said with a light smile, "No, it's good to spend time with my parents by farming in the village."

The woman shook her head and sighed softly, showing regret, and said: "Xiao Fan, it's a pity to stay in the village with your ability."

"By the way, I heard that Zhang Xiu, the governor of Jingzhou, set up some martial arts to attract warriors from all over the world. It is said that as long as he can win the first place, he can get a hundred gold coins and be named a general directly."

"Why don't you try it, Xiaofan? It's the beginning of June, just to avoid the busy farming season. Even if you lose, you won't be ashamed, but if you win, you will become a general, and your parents can live a good life, right?"

Zhao Fan paused, frowned slightly, lost in thought, and then continued to hoe with the hoe in his hand, but there was a ripple in his heart.

In the afternoon, he reclaimed some dry land.

When I got home, there were a few thatched huts surrounded by fences and rocks. I looked around and found that his father hadn't come back yet, so he probably had to feel dark to get home.

Mrs. Li was spinning cloth in the courtyard, looked at Zhao Fan, and said with a smile: "Xiao Fan, wait a while, after mother finishes these things, I will cook."

Glancing at his mother, her face was full of love, but it was also full of exhaustion, which was the exhaustion brought about by life.

Zhao Fan clenched his iron fists tightly, hating himself for his incompetence, and immediately said in a daze: "Mother, I heard from Aunt Wang that Zhang Xiu in Jingzhou is going to hold some martial arts. As long as he can win the championship, he can become a general and get paid for it."

Li's spinning stopped immediately, with nervous eyes, he said anxiously: "Xiaofan, you want to join the army again? My mother disagrees."

After speaking, Li sobbed softly.

She still remembered that when her child returned from joining the army last time, his armor was stained with blood and he was dying.

Although it is a bit bitter now, the family is happy to be together.

"Mother, this time the child is going to a martial arts competition. If you fail to achieve anything, you should return to your hometown."

"If you are lucky enough to win the top spot, then the child will send someone to pick you up and live in a big house with your father, and you will never go through such a hard life again."

Zhao Fan looked determined, he wanted to try it.

At this time, Zhao Yan came back from the courtyard, and he dropped a load of wood, with a solemn expression, without anger, he said: "Let Xiaofan try it."

"But."

"Okay, Xiaofan is very talented, how can he stay with us in this small mountain village for the rest of his life?" Zhao Yan's eyes were sharp, and he said immediately: "Go to the second master's house in the village to buy some eggs, and make up for Xiaofan recently."

"Xiaofan, I have also heard about the martial arts released by Zhang Xiu, let's try it."

"Recently, you should stop working in the fields and get familiar with marksmanship and martial arts. Tomorrow, I will find time to go to the mountains to hunt some wild animals for your strength."

Zhao seriously patted Zhao Fan on the shoulder.

Knowing the son is more like the father, he knows in his heart that Zhao Fan knows filial piety, and he also wants to be a general, and only he knows all about joining the army before.

"En!" Zhao Fan nodded heavily.

And all over the world, there are many warriors rubbing against each other, and they are all rushing to the position of general. It can be said that the winner will reach the sky in one step.

Many times faster than joining the army.

Yingchuan, Xuchang City.

Cao Cao dropped the bamboo slips in his hand heavily, and said in displeasure, "This Zhang Xiu has come up with such absurd and nonsensical methods. Could it be that the families under his rule are all dead?"

Cao Cao is furious, he has been stabbed by the aristocratic family under his rule for his meritocracy, this Zhang Xiu dares to promote martial arts so blatantly.

Although martial arts exams are different from literary exams, they are detrimental to the status of literati after all, and should be tolerated by countless families.

"My lord, Zhang Xiu was born in Xiliang, and he won Jingzhou with soldiers. Relatively speaking, the Jingzhou family's constraints on him are far weaker than your lord."

"What's more, he has recently cleaned up Jingzhou and eliminated many corrupt officials. Everyone in the Jingzhou family is in danger, so how dare they take care of such trivial matters."

Xun You cupped his hands and said softly.

Cao Cao was quite annoyed, he had a lot of burdens under his command, and he couldn't move them for a short time.After all, the last time their influence was slightly weakened, the entire Yanzhou was almost abolished.

"My lord, a few warriors are nothing. Now my lord has three prefectures, Yan, Yu, and Xu, sitting in the rich and prosperous Central Plains."

"Although the Central Plains has been through war for a long time, the land is fertile after all. My lord should work hard now to bring the Central Plains back to the past. Only in this way can the Han Dynasty be revived and the rebels eradicated."

With a gentle face, Xun Yu clasped his fists and said in a deep voice.

Now that the Central Plains has been decided, as long as Yuan Shao is defeated and Jing and Yang are captured, the revival of the Han Dynasty will be just around the corner. Presumably, with Cao Cao's capable minister, the great Han Dynasty will prosper.

Hearing Xun Yu's words, Cao Cao felt a little annoyed. He was very kind to Xun Yu, and he did a lot of outrageous things, but he pretended not to notice.

But after so long, Xun Yu still has the Han Dynasty in his heart, which makes him a little distressed.

On one side, Guo Jia saw this, clasped his fists and smiled lightly, "My lord, what Wen Ruo said is true, we should prepare our troops now and recuperate."

"However, before cultivating and reviving, Jia thought that we should occupy two places first, otherwise." Speaking of this, Guo Jia glanced at Xun Yu and continued: "Otherwise, there is no hope for revival, and it will only be turned into dust with this troubled world."

"Feng Xiao is referring to Guanzhong, and Nanyang?" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and looked at Guo Jia.

"That's right, Guanzhong overlooks the Central Plains. Now that Guanzhong is in chaos, the lord should take advantage of the chaos to take advantage of it. Before that, the lord also ordered Guan Longhao to kill Li Jue. It should be obvious soon."

"When Li Jue dies, the lord should send good generals to take him. In addition, he can recruit many powerful Xiliang, absorb Xiliang's elite, and form Xiliang iron cavalry, so as to fight Yuan Shao and even Zhang Xiu."

"As for Nanyang, it is close to Xuchang and Luoyang, and it is only a few days' journey away, and there is no danger to defend. If Nanyang is not captured, my lord and Yuan Shao will take advantage of the situation to attack our camp, so Zhang Xiu will definitely lose."

Guo Jia explained broadly.
