Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 138 Apprenticeship
Zhang Xutuo is a master of horse lance.

It is said that Shi Wansui was the most powerful general in the Sui Army who used lances.Shi Wansui is one of the four great generals who founded the country, and he can be called the first in terms of bravery.A horse spear is invincible.

Zhang Xutuo used to be Shi Wansui's subordinate. Although his horse lance is a family-inherited technique, it was once drawn by Shi Wansui himself.

"Since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, all those who are known as generals have not used Ma Chan, and they are all masters of Ma Chan. Only some generals with ordinary backgrounds will use others. For example, there are two generals in this dynasty who do not use Ma Chan, one is Youtun General Wei Mai Tiezhang, he is good at using a broadsword. Second, General You Yiwei is here to protect his son, and he is good at using iron spears."

Mai Tiezhang and Lai Huer were both from Nanchen. Mai Tiezhang was a thief in his early years. He was brave and strong. He could run five hundred miles a day and night barefoot. Later, he joined the Sui Army and followed the four famous generals who founded the country. One of them, Yang Su, has repeatedly made military exploits in the east and west, and now he is deeply favored by the emperor of Daye.

Another person, Laihuer, was also from Nanchen. He was poor when he was young. Later, he swam across the Yangtze River and joined the Sui army. He served as a scout under He Ruobi, one of the four famous generals who founded the country. The meritorious service is now also deeply favored by the emperor of Daye, the official residence of the general You Yiwei, with a wrapped iron spear is superb.

These two people have a characteristic. One is that they were born in the south of the Yangtze River, and the other is that they were born in an ordinary family. They are neither generals nor martial artists. Masters, but one practiced the big sword, and the other practiced the iron spear.

The children of the Guanlong nobles basically practice martial arts and learn the art of battle. Everyone's riding and archery skills are practiced at a young age, so everyone practices horse spears. I have never heard of a Guanlong nobleman who can't Ma Li's.

They have the conditions to own the horse lance, and they also have family heirlooms to obtain the horse lance technique.

But people like Luo Cheng didn't have access to Ma Qiang before, and now they have Ma Qiang, and there is no one to teach them.

Another important point is that horse lance is horse fighting skills. You have to practice riding first and then horse lance. You can't learn anything by stepping down. Without good riding skills, let alone practice horse lance well.

Zhang Xutuo fought south and north, fought east and west, not only battle-tested and experienced in battle, but also his riding and shooting skills and his horsemanship skills are also very high.

He offered to teach Luo Chengma Qiang, which was really what he wished for.

"Why, don't you want to?" Zhang Xutuo asked with a smile when Luo Cheng was stunned.

"I am willing, of course I am willing, and a thousand are willing." Such a good thing falls from the sky, how can anyone not be unwilling.

"Since you are willing, then you offer me a cup of tea, and I will accept you as a disciple. From now on, you will be my disciple of Zhang Xutuo."

Luo Cheng came back to his senses, and quickly poured tea and served water.

Seeing Zhang Xutuo took the water glass and drank it in one gulp, he slowly calmed down.

It's not easy for Zhang Xutuo to accept him as a disciple suddenly.

Remembering that he said that he refused to be a matchmaker for Zhang Yichen's adopted daughter just now, it probably has something to do with it.He rejected Zhang Yichen, although Zhang Yichen didn't necessarily want to embarrass him, but it was impossible to get much help from him. Zhang Xutuo accepted him as a disciple, which was the greatest support for him.

There is of course a world of difference between the young man admired by Zhang Xutuo and Zhang Xutuo's direct disciple.

"During this time, you will follow me first. From tomorrow onwards, I will teach you riding and archery and sniping. As a melee weapon, you have a six-leaf hammer. This is not bad. It is a sharp weapon for close combat. As a cavalry general , a melee weapon is stronger than a sword with a blunt weapon."

"Thank you, Jun Cheng."

"Also call Jun Cheng, and in the future, unless it is a formal occasion, you should call me Master."

"Yes, Master."

"Okay, let's go back to rest first, it seems that you are still not sober, and tomorrow, I will officially announce to everyone that you will be accepted as a disciple, and you will also set up a few tables, and invite everyone to have a meal and be happy. "

After returning to the tent from Zhang Xutuo, Luo Cheng was still a little dizzy.

Just like that, he became a disciple of the magistrate?

Zhang Xutuo is the second-in-command in Qi County, and this is the Guanlong general. He has a very wide network in the army. Although he is not a top Guanlong noble family, he is also a member of the Guanlong Group.Being able to become his disciple, it can be said that he already has a backer in his official career after Luo Cheng.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but giggle.

"Fifth, what are you so silly about? Did you find the money?"

The fourth child just came in, but saw Luo Cheng giggling by himself, so he couldn't help asking.

"I didn't find the money, but I'm happier than finding the money."

"What a good thing, let's listen to it. Could it be that Zhang Juncheng just called you to be an official for you?"

The fourth child is an official fan, thinking about appointing officials all day long.

"The magistrate asked me to go because he told me that magistrate Zhang entrusted him to be a matchmaker and wanted to give me his adopted daughter."

"And this good thing?"

"I refused."

"Aren't you stupid to refuse such a good thing? Daughter of the county magistrate, I'm afraid you are really stupid. If you don't want to give it to me, I will!"

"Didn't you just get engaged to Liu Butcher's daughter in Kaoshan Village? I heard that Liu Sanniang is very brave and powerful. You are not afraid that she will come over with two butcher knives and chop you up when she hears the news?" Luo Luo Cheng said with a smile.

After Luo's father left the fourth child alone on this matter for a while, he finally found a matchmaker to propose marriage.This matter is settled as soon as this matter is mentioned, the Luo family is not as good as before, not to mention that the family has six hundred miles of land, the fifth child of the Luo family is still an official, and the fourth child is also working in the county government, so the Liu family is very satisfied. He readily agreed.

Just wait to choose a good day, and then I will greet you in person.

As soon as he heard Liu Sanniang's name, the fourth child died immediately.

"It's a pity. If I had known about such a good thing, I wouldn't have to rush to propose marriage, hey."

"Hahaha." Luo Cheng laughed out loud.

"That's not right, is it a good thing for you to refuse Zhang County Magistrate's marriage proposal?"

"Of course this is nothing. I'm happy because there are other things. Zhang Juncheng has accepted me as a disciple just now, and he wants to teach me riding and archery and the method of spearing! Isn't this something to be happy about?"

When the fourth child heard it, his eyes lit up.

"Hold the grass, no wonder you don't like the skills of those veterans. It turns out that you have long wanted to climb up to Zhang Juncheng. Gao, you are really tall, the fifth. Now that you have become Zhang Juncheng's disciple, your future will naturally have no bright future. .”

Luo Cheng didn't like to listen to the fourth son's tone of thinking in a wrong way, "Get lost!"

"Fifth, please help me to ask, Zhang Juncheng still accepts disciples, I also want to learn from him."

"Didn't you learn from Lao Wang?"

"It doesn't matter if I learn from Ma Qian again."

"Be careful when the old king says that you deceived your master and destroyed your ancestors, and Yi Lao will stab you to death as an unfilial disciple."

The fourth child immediately thought of the ruthless appearance of the one-armed old king, and was stunned again.

"Hey, in my life, two things have been too hasty. One is to choose a master early, and the other is to choose a wife early!"
