    "Father, can you stop studying?"

    Whenever Zhang Xutuo urged Luo Shixin to study, Luo Shixin would have a grimace on his face. He had always been brave and good at fighting, and was invincible. The only thing he was afraid of was his adoptive father asking him to study.  If he is allowed to study, he will still feel uncomfortable if he is killed.

    "Father, if I don't study, won't it delay me from killing the enemy?"

    "If you don't study, you can only be a subordinate general in battle. You won't be able to understand important events and you won't be able to command an army."

    Luo Shixin argued: "But Xiang Yu doesn't like reading, and he doesn't even like studying the art of war, but he can still defeat the Qin army."

    "But he died in the hands of Han Xin, who was studying."

    Luo Shixin was speechless.

    Luo Shixin is the son of Luo Yi, Qin Qiong's good friend at that time. Luo Yi was exiled and died on the road, leaving a posthumous son.  Later Luo Shixin was adopted by Zhang Xutuo.  Luo Shixin was young and had a wild personality. At least he liked to wield swords and guns, but he was afraid of difficulties when it came to studying.  Every time at this time, he tried his best to avoid studying, but he couldn't do it.

    The father and son were fighting, when Zhang Xutuo's deputy general Jia Wuben hurried over, looking ugly.

    Zhang Xutuo saw Jia Wuben's expression and asked, "But where is the chaos again?"

    Jia Wuben handed the imperial edict to Zhang Xutuo, and then said: "Zuo Xiaoyou, with more than 100,000 troops, is besieging Beihai. The imperial court ordered me to go east to hunt down the thieves."

    "If you are asking for thieves, where can you ask for thieves?"

    Luo Shixin was born as a general. He was warlike by nature. He was happy when he heard about war. When he heard that there was another war, he was happy to be able to get rid of studying, so he jumped up happily.

    "Shixin!"

    Zhang Xutuo glared at Luo Shixin, who then fell silent and said nothing.

    Zhang Xutuo was somewhat silent as he held the imperial edict.

    At this time, Jia Wuben said: "Does the Ming government want to go to Beihai? Now our army has too much time to take care of itself. How can we have any spare power to rescue Beihai?"

    Zhang Xutuo was a little embarrassed, and finally said: "Wu Ben, I am the deposed ambassador of the twelve counties of Henan Province. I have the responsibility to rescue the bandits. This trip to Beihai is also what I should do."

    Zhang Xutuo followed Huang Mingyuan to quell the rebellion in Wuzhou, and was promoted many times to the rank of prefect of Qi County.

    But Zhang Xutuo¡¯s rise actually came after this.

    When Yang Guang conquered the Liao Dynasty, the world was in chaos and the people were displaced.  Zhang Xutuo, who was the prefect at that time, decided to open a warehouse to release grain and provide relief to the victims.

    The subordinate officials all advised Zhang Xutuo: "We must wait for His Majesty's edict and cannot open warehouses to provide food relief privately."

    But Zhang Xutuo said: "Your Majesty is far away in Liaodong now, and it will take more than half a year to send envoys back and forth. The people are in urgent need now. If we had waited for the report to go up and help the victims, the people would have been buried in the pits. Today.  I will shoulder all the responsibilities for putting out grain. If I am convicted of this, I will have no regrets even if I die." So he beheaded first and then played, and opened the warehouse to put grain.

    Later, Yang Guang learned that he did not blame Zhang Xutuo, but rewarded him.

    Changbai Mountain in Qi County was the first place where chaos broke out in the world. Since Wang Bo's rebellion, the world has been in turmoil.  Because the world has been at peace for a long time, many people do not practice military warfare. Every time local officials fight against rebels, they either abandon the city and flee, or open their doors to welcome them.  Zhang Xutuo was the only one who was brave and good at fighting, and at the same time good at controlling, so he was very popular among the soldiers, and he was named a famous general at that time.

    After that, Zhang Xutuo defeated Wang Bo several times, and also defeated Pei Changcai, Shi Zihe, Guo Fangyu, Lu Mingyue, Zhai Rang and others, which made Dongxia powerful for a while.

    But this is not the reason for them to send troops.

    Since the sixth year of Daye, Zhang Xutuo's troops have been fighting in the north and south like a fire captain, suffering heavy casualties and the soldiers are already exhausted.  Moreover, Qi County was originally a place of the Four Wars, with bandits gathering there. The officers and soldiers of Qi County wanted to defend their hometown instead of fighting everywhere, so people's hearts were in turmoil.

    After defeating Zhai Rang and heading north, Zhang Xutuo decided to cultivate for a while, but who would have thought that the war would start again.

    "Ming Mansion, it is the summer harvest season now, and all the soldiers are focused on the summer harvest. You also know that the soldiers have been fighting everywhere and have not been with their families for several years. Won't it chill the soldiers to summon the soldiers at this time?"

    Jia Wuben always thought that Zhang Xutuo was too down-to-earth, and there was no one who could only work without complaining about hardship.

    Zhang Xutuo's face became even more ugly, and he finally said: "In the end, I, Zhang Xutuo, am sorry for all the soldiers, but I have to obey the orders of the imperial court, and the thieves have to be suppressed."

    Jia Wuben was speechless for a moment.

    Jia Wuben and Zhang Xutuo have been together for more than 20 years. He knows very well that this old friend is so loyal that he is almost pedantic, and he cannot persuade him at all.

    Sure enough, as Jia Wuben said, after Zhang Xutuo gathered his subordinates, everyoneThe sky is filled with boiling water.  It was agreed that everyone should stay at home for half a year, but now it's good, not even half a month has passed, and they have to leave again, what a big deal.

    Zhang Xutuo loved his soldiers as much as his son, and the soldiers loved him very much. But no matter how much he did, he couldn't be like this.

    A group of soldiers asked Zhang Xutuo why he went eastward to Beihai.

    Zhang Xutuo persuaded everyone with sincerity: "There are many bandits today. We are attacking the bandits to protect our hometown."

    Some soldiers said: "Our hometown, Qijun, has been ravaged by bandits for a long time. There is still a hometown there. Zhang Ming Mansion pities the people everywhere, why can't it pity the people of Qijun."

    Zhang Xutuo was speechless when asked.

    ¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤

    As soon as the soldiers had great complaints and dissatisfaction, they finally went out to fight.  Zhang Xutuo assured everyone that they would make repairs after the war and ask for rewards from the court. Only then did everyone agree to send troops.

    In fact, the soldiers of Qijun were unwilling to go to war, not only because they were nostalgic for their hometown, but because they had nothing to gain.

    Zhang Xutuo's military discipline was strict and no plundering was allowed, and no one could get much money. As for the court, there were no rewards for a long time.  Until now, not even a human word has been spoken.

    This year, when the soldiers are not for faith, they have no money and food, and they have to live. Are these soldiers who are children?  If Zhang Xutuo hadn't worked hard to maintain it, this army would have dispersed long ago.

    Zhang Xutuo embarked on the road to the east worriedly, while a group of soldiers also said goodbye to their hometown and headed eastward in tears.  Among these people, the only one who is happy is probably Luo Shixin.

    He doesn¡¯t care about rewards or official positions, as long as he can fight on the battlefield with force and strength.

    Zhang Xutuo had about 15,000 men under his command. Except for 3,000 who stayed in Licheng, the rest followed him on the expedition.

    Zhang Xutuo's main force is called "Eight Winds Camp". This is a very strange name. "L¨¹'s Spring and Autumn Annals" says: "The eight winds cover the winds to respond to the four seasons, originate from all directions, and their nature also changes in eight ways."  ." There are eight wind points in medicine, and Buddhist scriptures refer to eight attitudes of outsiders towards someone.

    But no matter how you explain it, the name of these eight winds is really strange.

    Zhang Xutuo has a dull temperament and is not good at communicating with others. When he met Huang Mingyuan, a celebrity around King Jin, he did not know how to please, but almost offended him. This shows his poor emotional intelligence.

    "Maybe he doesn't understand some things, but he just doesn't want to do them, such as making friends with powerful people.

    Perhaps the word "eight winds" is his summary of his life. In the next life, "when the wind blows, the nature will also change." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
