From refugee NPC to mythical general

Chapter 149 Border Friction
Zhuge Liang searched for a while in Wen Pin's mansion on the south bank of the Yellow River and found some unexpected surprises, but these things were not of much use to him.

Then he went hunting in some mountains on the south bank of the Yellow River to gain experience points, but in a whole day he only gained less than 500 experience points.

These experience points are insignificant to Zhuge Liang.

He rode on a horse and first found Guan Ping who was guarding the three towns along the Yellow River.

Guan Ping has now been transferred by Zhuge Liang to the south bank of the Yellow River to guard the ferry town.

"See you, General." Guan Ping greeted Zhuge Liang with a smile, "General, what can I do for you?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "It's nothing. Here is a book of swordsmanship. You can practice it when you have time."

"Thank you, General." Guan Ping didn't take it seriously and took over Zhuge Liang's Five-Flow Sword Technique.

"Okay, you stay here and guard it well, I'll go look somewhere else."

"Here."

Zhuge Liang rode a horse and found Gao Shun in Liangcheng on the south bank of the Yellow River.

Gao Shun was injured in a battle some time ago, but he is recovering now. Liangcheng is an important grain base on the south bank of the Yellow River, so Zhuge Liang naturally has to send heavy troops to guard it.

Among all the military generals, Gao Shun is second only to Guan Ping, so it is most appropriate to send him to guard the city.

Zhuge Liang taught Gao Shun the Five-Stream Spear Technique. Gao Shun's reaction was exactly the same as Guan Ping's. He didn't find it strange, but he still thanked Zhuge Liang.

"Okay, keep busy."

Zhuge Liang said hello and left.

……

Guan Ping needed to jointly defend the three towns along the Yellow River. After a busy day, Guan Ping took out the sword skills given to him by Zhuge Liang to have a look.

Guan Ping is very confident in his swordsmanship, so he doesn't think that this swordsmanship will improve him in any way.

But he still tried to practice it, but soon, Guan Ping suddenly found something wrong!

As he practiced more and more deeply, he discovered the mystery of this sword technique.

boom!
Guan Ping chopped down with his sword, and he felt the aura around him exploding. Although he was only a sixth-rate general now, with the power of this set of swordsmanship, his power was fully exerted to the fifth-rate level!

A set of swordsmanship can actually give you such a high combat power bonus?
When Zhuge Liang gave it to him, General Zhuge did not take it seriously at all, so Guan Ping did not take it seriously either. Only now did he realize belatedly and understand how precious this set of swordsmanship is.

But General Zhuge actually gave such a precious thing to himself?
Thinking of this, Guan Ping was so grateful to Zhuge Liang that he prostrated himself on the ground!
On the other side, Gao Shun was also idle and was doing daily training with a group of soldiers in the martial arts field.

He took the book on spearmanship given to him by Zhuge Liang and practiced according to it. He soon became immersed in it. Every shot and every move was extremely sharp, and the soldiers around him cheered for him!

"Good! Great shooting skills!"

"General Gao is mighty!"

"Boom!" Gao Shun fired his shot, and the wooden stake was actually pierced. The huge force broke the stake into pieces!

Gao Shun was stunned. He knew his previous level of spearmanship. If he continued with his previous spearmanship, he would never be able to reach such a terrifying level.

There is only one explanation, the spear technique that Zhuge Liang gave him is very powerful and directly raised his spear skill level to a higher level!
If his previous gun-wielding skills were at the sixth-rate level, his current skills were at the fifth-rate level!
This is strong! Ridiculously strong!

If there is no interference from external factors, I am afraid that I will never be able to improve my martial arts in my lifetime. Which general doesn't want to become stronger?

Gao Shun was so excited that he couldn't be more excited, and then he rode his horse out.

Zhuge Liang had just finished hunting for the day and was about to return from the ferry crossing at the three towns of the Yellow River when he saw Guan Ping chasing after him.

"General Zhuge." Zhuge Liang looked at Guan Ping with some curiosity and asked, "What's the matter? Is there something wrong?"

Guan Ping scratched his head, then dismounted, knelt on one knee, and said to Zhuge Liang: "Thank you for your cultivation, General!"

"what?"

Guan Ping said: "The swordsmanship that the general gave me... is amazing!"

So that's the reason. Zhuge Liang didn't care at all. His swordsmanship had already reached a second-rate level. Although the weapon had a bonus to martial arts, the bonus was not that high.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "It's okay."

As he was talking, another fast horse galloped towards Zhuge Liang not far away. Gao Shun dismounted and said to Zhuge Liang, "General Zhuge...thank you for teaching me the spearmanship."

Guan Ping and Gao Shun looked at each other, and saw strong shock in each other's eyes. Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "It's nothing, you can continue with your work."

"Yes!"

After Zhuge Liang left, Guan Ping and Gao Shun were eager to try and asked, "Let's have a competition?"

"Give it a try!"

The two generals began to spar on the bank of the Yellow River. They could feel each other's improvement in martial arts and both sides were very excited.

……

The Wu Dynasty was located in Hebei. Its lord was Wu Yingxiong. After a fierce battle, he finally stood out from Hebei and became the only prince.

He had many military generals and advisers under his command, including Zhuge Jin, Kuai Yue, and Tian Feng, and generals Xiahou Yuan, Feng Xi, Mi Fang, Lu Jian, Wu Anguo, and Li Tong.

Xiahou Yuan and Zhuge Jin were both rewarded for becoming princes this time.

After the unification of the entire Hebei Province, the next opponent they would face would be the Dameng Dynasty located on the southern border.

Wu Chao had no idea about the strength of the Dameng Dynasty, but now they had 30,000 soldiers, and they had already transferred half of them to guard the border in order to prevent the Dameng Dynasty from launching a surprise attack on them.

No matter what, you must guard against possible surprise attacks from the enemy.

At the same time, by transferring so many troops there, some friction incidents can be created on the border to test the strength of the Dameng Dynasty.

At this stage, the two sides do not understand each other and are constantly testing each other's bottom line and strength.

After the unification of various places, commerce has been fully opened up. Each prince not only has prosperous agriculture, but also commercial exchanges.

Merchants across borders would also appear at any time to trade.

The Wu Dynasty took the lead in attacking the merchants on the border of the Dameng Dynasty, but no one was killed. Only three border merchants from the Dameng Dynasty were injured.

He wanted to see how the Dameng Dynasty would retaliate and how intense the revenge would be, so as to judge the character of the lord of the Dameng Dynasty.

This matter was soon reported to the meeting hall of the Dameng Dynasty.

"My lord, General."

Wang Da received intelligence from the border and immediately came to report, saying, "Three of our merchants at the border were attacked by Wu Dynasty soldiers and were injured."

Hearing this, Zhang Liao shouted, "How dare they! How arrogant! I haven't even started fighting them yet, and they dare to provoke me? Then I'll fight them!"

Zhuge Liang advised Zhang Liao, "General Zhang, please be patient."

He glanced at Jiang Wei again and asked, "What do you think of this, Mr. Jiang?"
