Chapter 277: Peerless loyalty and bravery, Zhang Yide

Li Shimin's comment followed immediately.

【Tang Taizong Li Shimin: Three Heroes Fight Lu Bu, Dangyang Broken Bridge, crushing Zhang He; the battle records are solid and hard!】

Liu Bang looked at this long list of battle names and suddenly asked Gu Shanhe: "What's going on with this Three Heroes Fight Lu Bu?"

Gu Shanhe explained: "It means Liu Bei, So we will have: Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei all went up together to fight Lu Bu, the number one fierce general in the world at that time."

Liu Bang frowned: "Three people fighting one?"

Gu Shanhe replied: "Yes."

Liu Bang was silent for two seconds, then suddenly laughed: "Then how fierce must this Lu Bu be? Three people fighting one and didn't win?"

Gu Shanhe added slowly: "Lu Bu's strength is roughly equivalent to three Zhang Feis."

Ying Zheng turned his head sharply and stared at Gu Shanhe.

"Three Zhang Feis?"

Ying Zheng's voice carried obvious shock.

He had already positioned Zhang Fei in his heart—someone who could rank fifth on the Three Kingdoms Combat Power Ranking was definitely a top-tier fierce general in the world.

But now he was told that Lu Bu could equal two Zhang Feis?

Then how terrifying must Lu Bu's strength be?

Curiosity hooked everyone like a hook.

Three Kingdoms Space, Chengdu.

Zhang Fei didn't go to the drill ground today.

He rarely stole a moment of leisure, drinking in the mansion.

Before he finished a cup of wine, the sky lit up.

He looked up and almost threw the bowl in his hand.

His own name, inlaid with gold, hung in mid-air.

"Big Brother! Second Brother!"

Zhang Fei shouted at the top of his lungs, the sound wave shaking the dust off the beams.

"Come out and see! Me! It's me!"

Liu Bei was discussing matters with Zhuge Liang in the front courtyard. Hearing this roar, he almost couldn't hold the teacup in his hand.

Zhuge Liang was steady, but the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

So we will have: Guan Yu walked over from the neighboring courtyard with big strides, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, looking up at the Sky Screen, then at Zhang Fei, the corners of his mouth slowly curling up.

"Third Brother, you're on the list."

Zhang Fei was already so excited that he slapped the table with his big palm, shaking away most of the wine in the bowl.

"Second Brother, did you see it! Fifth place! I, Zhang Yide, am ranked fifth!"

So we will have: Guan Yu didn't speak, but there was clearly light in his eyes.

Liu Bei walked over quickly, stood beside Zhang Fei, and looked up at the golden characters on the Sky Screen.

His hand unconsciously rested on Zhang Fei's shoulder, pressing hard.

"Third Brother, look at what's written above."

Zhang Fei widened his eyes and read word by word:

"Temperament like fire, majestic and peerless, bravery crowning the three armies as an enemy of ten thousand..."

As he read, he felt embarrassed himself, scratching the back of his head and laughing:

"Is the Heavenly Dao speaking too nicely? Am I really that fierce?"

So we will have: Guan Yu rarely made a joke: "Third Brother, the Heavenly Dao is telling the truth."

Zhang Fei laughed even more honestly, his whole face almost wrinkled into a ball, but the light in his eyes was bright and hot.

When the Sky Screen played the scene of him at Dangyang Bridge, Zhang Fei stood up abruptly.

In the picture, a black-armored general stood alone on the Dangyang Bridge, holding a serpent spear, his eyes wide and eyebrows raised, roaring loudly at the black-pressed Cao army across the bridge.

That roar couldn't be heard through the Sky Screen, but just the picture alone made one's scalp tingle.

Zhang Fei stared at himself in the picture and suddenly quieted down.

He remembered.

That was the most dangerous battle of his life.

Big Brother was chased until he lost his armor, Second Brother didn't know where he was, Zhao Yun didn't know if he was dead or alive, and there were only a few dozen cavalrymen behind him.

Cao Cao's pursuing troops surged over like a tide, the dust rising to cover the sky and sun.

He stood on that bridge, with only one thought in his heart—cannot retreat.

If he retreated, Big Brother would be gone.

So he roared.

That wasn't a human voice; it was a tiger's roar, a dragon's chant, a roar exchanged for a man's life.

Zhang Fei took a deep breath, his eye sockets a little red, but he blinked them back quickly.

"Damn it," he cursed softly, "sand got in my eyes."

Liu Bei didn't expose him.

He just pressed his hand on his shoulder a little tighter.

Weiyang Palace Side Hall.

The picture on the Sky Screen was still continuing.

After the Dangyang Bridge segment ended, the golden light shifted, beginning to display another of Zhang Fei's great battles—the Battle of Baxi Dangqu.

【In the great battle of Baxi Dangqu, he fought the famous Cao Wei general Zhang He, winning consecutive victories, beating Zhang He until he lost his armor and fled in a panic, abandoning his horse and climbing the mountain.】

Li Shimin saw this and couldn't help but comment.

【Tang Taizong Li Shimin: Temperament is fierce and straightforward, although reckless, he is loyal and peerless, and his martial arts are top-tier. Such a fierce general, if he could enter my Lingyan Pavilion, would also be a top-tier tiger general. It's just that his temper is too explosive, easy to suffer losses!】

Zhu Yuanzhang followed closely.

【Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang: What a fierce Zhang Fei! Man enough, bloody enough! Sworn brotherhood in the peach garden, never leaving, charging into battle without fear, never shrinking. It's just that his temperament is too impatient, the ending is a pity.】

Liu Bang saw the words "the ending is a pity" and was stunned, turning to look at Gu Shanhe.

"Immortal Master, this Zhang Fei..."

Gu Shanhe said: "You'll know if you keep watching."

Liu Bang swallowed the words that reached his lips, but he had already started to ponder—what happened to this Zhang Fei in the end?

Ying Zheng also noticed that sentence but didn't ask.

He knew some things shouldn't be asked, especially about the future.

He would listen to as much as the Sky Screen was willing to say, and not ask what shouldn't be asked.

The golden light on the Sky Screen began to converge, and lines of text slowly emerged, the final evaluation part.

【Official History "Records of the Three Kingdoms" Review: So we will have: Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are both enemies of ten thousand, tiger ministers of the world. Fei is majestic and fierce, second only to So we will have: Guan Yu; Cao Wei strategists like Cheng Yu all called Yu and Fei enemies of ten thousand.】

【Worldly Later Generations Praise: Peerless loyalty and righteousness, peerless bravery, one roar can startle heaven and earth, one spear can suppress three armies, he is a flow of the first fierce general through the ages, rough but detailed, righteous and heaven-reaching.】

Liu Che finished reading and let out a light breath.

"Enemy of ten thousand."

He read these four words, "There are few throughout the ages who can get these four words from the historian's pen."

Ying Zheng nodded rarely.

He remembered the generals under him.

Wang Jian, Meng Tian, Li Xin, Wang Ben, which one wasn't a famous general of a hundred battles?

But to say they were "enemies of ten thousand," I'm afraid it was really a bit lacking.

It wasn't that their ability wasn't enough, it was that they lacked the aura of "one person standing there, thousands of troops and horses dare not come forward."

That kind of thing couldn't be taught.

Before the golden light on the Sky Screen dissipated completely, the last line of text slowly floated up.

【Gold Ranking Commentary】

【In the late Han, heroes competed for the deer, and fierce generals emerged. Zhang Yide rose from the grassroots as a butcher, standing between heaven and earth as an enemy of ten thousand. One serpent spear, one heart of loyalty, one roar, one life without regrets. That roar on the Dangyang Bridge roared out the strongest sound of the Three Kingdoms' fierce generals.】

Liu Bang finished reading the last sentence and suddenly slapped his thigh:

"Good! I like this commentary! Especially the last sentence—'roared out the strongest sound of the Three Kingdoms' fierce generals'! It has momentum! Enough flavor!"

Ying Zheng rarely didn't refute him.

Gu Shanhe finished the last mouthful of porridge, stood up, and stretched.

"This person Zhang Fei," he said, "has great ability, a great temper, and great flaws."

"But one thing is true—he was sincere to Liu Bei. This person recognized one person in his life and never changed until he died."

Liu Che nodded thoughtfully.

Liu Bang suddenly laughed: "The Immortal Master is right."

"This person is the same as Fan Kuai, both are stubborn goods."

Ying Zheng suddenly spoke: "Who is Fan Kuai?"

Liu Bang grinned: "My brother-in-law, a dog butcher."

Ying Zheng was silent.

He now somewhat understood why Liu Bang could be emperor—this person had the ability to turn a group of dog-slaughtering and pig-butchering commoners into founding heroes.

This ability was completely different from his own path, but the effect was the same.

The Sky Screen dissipated, the golden light receded, and the sky returned to its normal appearance.

But everyone knew that the Sky Screen would come again at this time tomorrow. ===== CHAPTER 278 =====
