Chapter 116: Catching Horses, Dusty Generals
The camp at the pass is very simple, and the camp tent is set up under the stone cliff at the west exit.
In the tent of the Chinese military camp, after Li Li and his party rested for a few hours, all the generals gathered in the big tent.
"My lord, my subordinates recommend you a fierce general. This person is the small school Tataru who was stationed at Dongshan Pass before, a native of Wuwei County, his father is Han, and his mother is a Qiang person, with strong martial arts, bold and careful, and brave in battle. Previously, he fought Ma Chao for dozens of rounds, causing Ma Chao and others to be frustrated and had to flee into the mountains. ”
At the bottom of the stairs, after Li Dian reported the current situation of Ma Chao and others, he solemnly recommended Tatar, the guard general of the pass.
Li Li was slightly shocked when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Oh? The person who can be recommended by Mancheng must not be a mediocre person! Where is Tarlu? ”
"Tarlu greets the lord!" As Li Li's words fell, he saw a burly man with a height of nine feet and a round waist standing near the door of the tent, striding towards the center of the tent and bowing down.
At first sight of this person, Li Li's smiling eyes suddenly flashed with a fine light, and a habitual smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Tarus, don't be formal, get up and speak. Let's talk about it, how is Ma Chao's martial arts? ”
Standing upright, Tatar was dressed in yellow animal skin armor, two thick arms with thick bowls exposed, long hair with thick black shawls, black eyes, and yellow skin, no different from the Han Chinese. Thick eyebrows and big eyes, thoughtful facial features, and a three-inch-long black beard on his chin, showing that he was twenty-five or sixteen years old. He is more than nine feet tall, with a strong body, bulging muscles, and a huge explosive power, which is extremely similar to Dian Wei's body shape and momentum.
Hearing Li Li's question, Tataru replied loudly: "Ma Chao's martial arts are strong, fierce and cunning, but he is still young and not afraid. His subordinates were confident that he would be defeated within a lily, and he would be cut off his horse within a hundred and fifty lilies. He had fought him for sixty rounds and defeated him and absconded; If it weren't for the emaciation of his mounts, how could he have escaped with his life? ”
"Huh?" Li Li frowned slightly, and his eyes looked at Tatar Lu with some surprise, and he sighed.
In Li Li's opinion, Tatar is indeed strong in martial arts, at least with strength that is not inferior to his top generals. But he actually said that Ma Chao would be killed within one hundred and fifty rounds, which made Li Li full of doubts.
You must know that Huan Fei has the strength of a top general, and he only seriously injured Ma Chao after one hundred and twenty years in the past, and failed to kill Ma Chao. However, now that Tatar Lu is so confident that he can kill Ma Chao within one hundred and fifty rounds, wouldn't that mean that he is similar to Huan Fei's strength, and has the combat power of a top general.
In the face of the sudden appearance of Tarlu, Li Li couldn't believe that he was the peak powerhouse of the top generals.
"Uh, Tarru, take a closer look at this general, how do you think his martial arts are better than yours?"
In disbelief, Li Li pointed at Huan Fei with a calm face and asked Tatar.
Tarlu was stunned when he heard this, and looked in the direction of Li Li's finger, his eyes instantly became very solemn, and his expression was solemn.
After a long time, Tatar Lu's eyes closed slightly, he took a deep breath, and then replied respectfully: "My lord, this general has a long breath and restrained momentum, and he is obviously a person with superb martial arts; In addition, the general's body is different from ordinary people, extremely majestic, with wide palms, thick calluses on the palms and backs, and the strength of ten thousand people, when there is the courage of ten thousand people. The subordinates are ashamed, and they can still fight to a draw with this general within one hundred and fifty lilies, and after two lilies, the subordinates will ・・・・・・ defeat! The subordinates took the liberty of asking, which commander of our army is this general? ”
Indeed, the reason why Tatar concluded that Huan Fei was the commander of the army was because Huan Fei and Bo Cai sat face to face, as if they were senior generals at the level of commander in the army.
Hearing Tatarus's answer, Li Li was not only not angry, but was very surprised in his heart, and even a little overjoyed.
Li Li never dreamed that there would be such a top-level general and a mid-level strength of a fierce general under his command. Although he had let him be in the dust of ordinary schools before, it was not too late to discover him at this time.
In addition to the inexplicable surprise, the smile on Li Li's face became brighter, and he smiled at Huan Fei and said, "Flying Tiger, what Tatar said, is it true?" ”
This sentence without a beginning or end seems to be abrupt, but it actually shows how happy Li Li is in his heart.
Huan Fei had actually been keeping an eye on Tatar. From the moment he got up and walked to the center of the big tent, Huan Fei's attention was all on Tarru.
Huan Fei has been in Liangerzhou for many years, and he has seen many talented people, but those people are reckless men who rely on brute strength, and they don't know martial arts and fighting techniques at all, so they are not worth mentioning. The generals such as Dian Wei, Teng Yu, Teng Xiao and Fan Yong under the command of the previous lord made him look sideways, and his heart was awe-inspiring and amazed
When he saw Li Zhi for the first time the day before yesterday, Huan Fei was even more startled and almost lost his temper immediately. Because he felt a long-lost dangerous aura in Li Zhi's body. What this dangerous aura meant, Huan Fei knew very well, the death threat he experienced when he was young made him never forget it for the rest of his life. And Li Zhi is precisely the person who can cause him a sense of mortal crisis, that is to say, Li Zhi actually has a strong combat power that is not inferior to his Huan Fei.
It is true that before meeting Li Zhi, Huan Fei was conceited as the first general under the command of the lord Li Li, full of confidence, and his mood was also a little floating, and when facing other commanders in the army, he inadvertently carried a sense of superiority.
Li Zhi's appearance greatly increased the pressure on Huan Fei, who originally had some sense of superiority, and his impetuous heart, which was originally a little fluttering, suddenly fell to the ground and became calm and calm.
If Li Zhi's appearance made Huan Fei calm and calm, then the sudden appearance of Tatar at this time made him completely begin to face himself, thus correcting his posture as a subordinate.
On this trip to Dongshan Pass, Huan Fei couldn't look down on this bird's and the mountain pass full of stones.
But what he didn't expect was that there was still such a top general as Tataru in this place, a fierce general with mid-level peak strength.
After hearing Li Li's question, Huan Fei reined in his thoughts, looked at Tatar and said solemnly: "Lord, what Tatar just said is a little too modest. In fact, Tatar martial arts are almost the same as those of his subordinates, and with just one chance of breakthrough, he can be on par with the strength of his subordinates.
Now he is similar to the strength of the commanders of Dian Wei, Teng Yu and Teng Xiao in the army, but what he lacks is a powerful mount and a set of high-grade battle armor, nothing more. And the way of martial arts requires one's own comprehension and chance, which is beyond the reach of man.
It's just that Tatar is now condescending to the position of guarding the small school, and he is indeed a general, and he still hopes that the lord will be clear. ”
Li Li smiled silently when he heard this, and looked at Tatar with burning eyes, as if he was thinking in his heart, and as if he was hesitating.
After a while, Li Li restrained his smile and asked with a solemn face, "Tarlu, you are from a family of Qiang slaves, right?" ”
"Uh, that's ・・・・・・."
Tatar was full of thought that his lord Li Li would reuse and promote himself, but he didn't expect to wait for such a sentence.
Suddenly, he was shocked and overwhelmed, and all kinds of thoughts came to his heart.
"Could it be that Li Li dislikes me because of my humble background in Tatar and doesn't want to promote and reuse me? Or did he think that I was from a Qiang slave family, and that after taking me in, it would damage his reputation as a guard? No, didn't General Li Dian say that the lord is meritocracy, regardless of his background, he is meritocracy, why is the lord asking me about my origin now? (To be continued)
