Chapter 207: A nameless general, holding a sword like an enemy
Between the narrow mountain road, the two sturdy war horses could not stand, Jiang Ming and Lin Han finally had the first dispute after a long tacit understanding, if the disagreement and battle of the Lost Age Peak was just to find out the hidden killer, then this confrontation between the two was the real difference in thought.
Lin Han has his own chivalry, his own demeanor, and his own expectations, and there are many things in this world that he is unwilling to destroy.
Jiang Ming has a pilgrimage goal and a direction to pursue, but more often than not, he would rather choose to be a selfish person, he is more realistic.
The two didn't say anything, and there was silence for a long time, and no one thought of conquering the other, but time was running out.
"Let's go, go find Hu Yanwu, as long as he doesn't look for trouble, I will definitely not take the initiative. Jiang Ming's face was cold, and his voice was completely devoid of warmth.
Lin Han smiled bitterly, but still followed.
Huyanwu's military camp is very large, Lin Han can see at a glance that the number of people this military camp can accommodate, at least more than 15,000 people, which means that the mountain lord Zongkun attaches great importance to the strategic position of this area, except for the personnel who are deployed outside, most of the other soldiers occupy the main mountain road, and from the moment Jiang Ming and Lin Han stepped into the barracks, someone has already gone to the barracks to report to Huyanwu.
In front of Jiang Ming and Lin Han's camp, before the two could speak, a team of about forty people surrounded the two, and there were many archers hiding in the shadows. Jiang Ming raised the halberd, and Lin Han raised the silver-white brake spear, even if there were hundreds of people besieging them in front of them at this time, they would not have the slightest fear.
Jiang Ming said in a low voice: "No wonder this Huyanwu can become the commander of Wohua Mountain, just the qualities of his generals far exceed the elite of the Qin soldiers, and I am afraid that only the heavy cavalry of Liang Jin in our military camp can be compared with these soldiers." ”
"That's true, Hu Yanwu's ability to govern the army is not to be ignored, even the mountain owner is quite appreciative, when he was a lieutenant colonel in Wohua Mountain before, Hu Yanwu once defeated others, and Lao Jin also praised it greatly. Lin Han looked around at the soldiers and said, "It's just that Hu Yanwu is arrogant and arrogant, and he is in a high position, even if he is the mountain master, he sometimes dares to dismiss it, it seems that Mr. Sikong, the military advisor, has long been dissatisfied." ”
Jiang Ming smiled at this time and said, "If you can, you can use the discord to make this Hu Yanwu abandoned by everyone, and at that time he will become the target of everyone, so I don't have to do it myself." ”
"I'm afraid this is unlikely, Hu Yanwu is also very cautious, although he is very arrogant, but under normal circumstances, he will not make a big mistake. It is precisely because of this that he can be entrusted with a heavy task by the mountain lord, and I think he would have seen through it at a glance if it were not for a very skillful strategy. Lin Han paused and said.
As the soldiers here became more and more surrounded, Lin Han saw a few leaders who were suspected of being captains looking around, and Lin Han shouted softly: "Could it be that you follow Hu Yanwu, so you don't know the other commanders, and even I, Lin Han, don't recognize it? Is this Wohua Mountain the mountain master's Wohua Mountain, or Huyanwu's Wohua Mountain?"
As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers looked at each other, even if the newly recruited soldiers didn't know, but there were still a large number of soldiers in this military camp who knew Lin Han's identity, after all, Lin Han was the real six commanders of Wohua Mountain, if they didn't know it, the commanders had all the strength to kill him directly.
These generals were all forcibly sent by the generals, although Hu Yanwu was their supreme commander, but after all, they were all people from Wohua Mountain, if they offended the six commanders, what authority could they have as a small soldier to explain? But if they did not come forward to surround them, they would be punished by the commanders and generals, and they could not bear these things.
Lin Han showed his identity, but he still didn't achieve any effect, which couldn't help but make him a little annoyed, and Jiang Ming on the side teased: "It seems that your name is useless, Hu Yanwu has trained this army extremely well, even the commander of Wohua Mountain can face it head-on, I wonder if I kill it directly, will anyone come out to stop it?"
Lin Han said: "There is often a saying in the world that 'eight hundred grams kill nine sections', and you have learned about the strength of the soldiers in Jiaozhi Dao before, but you don't seem to have learned a lesson. ”
Jiang Ming said with a smile: "What is the lesson to be learned, the saying of 'eight hundred grams to kill nine sections' comes from the Xuanjia army hundreds of years ago, it is said that it was a heavy armor team, and there were more than ten seventh-stage martial artists in the team to control the team, and they used a lot of crooked weapons to achieve the effect of killing nine stages, and it was still very difficult to achieve that step in reality." At least the elite level of armor should be as elite as Liang Jin's heavy cavalry, as well as weapons or formations that can entangle the Nine-Rank Martial Arts Grandmaster, as well as a team leader with outstanding ability, if there are no these, do you think they can kill the Nine-Rank Grandmaster?"
Lin Han was stunned and said, "It seems that you have learned a lot of things, go back to my make-up class." Then this matter will be under your command, I know their way of fighting, and they can't trap us, so let you clean it up!"
Jiang Minglang smiled: "Okay, just wait for your words." ”
I saw Jiang Ming slightly pull Juejiang's horse back, and immediately scared many soldiers back four or five steps, Jiang Ming's figure leaned on the horse's back, and shouted at the front: "The soldiers of the first battalion listen, I, Jiang Ming, the new ninth commander of Wohua Mountain, came to the camp gate with the sixth commander, and no one answered for half a day, and even the battalion soldiers faced each other with guns and halberds. I have reason to suspect that Huyanwu is in rebellion, so I will go to the camp, and if anyone stops us, we will be killed as traitors, no matter how big or small. The battalion may excuse itself on the grounds of defense, but if the archers dare to fire an arrow, I will cut off all the archers in your camp. If anyone wants to verify that what I said is true or false, just give it a try!"
The generals were deeply afraid, and there was already a retreat under their feet, but it seemed that the captains hiding in the ranks were warning each other what would happen if they took a step back.
Seeing that the soldiers did not back down, Jiang Ming's face slowly became gloomy, he took a sharp breath and shouted, "Kill!"
Juejiang horse stepped on the hooves and neighed, Jiang Ming assassinated the first two soldiers with a halberd, and then he ignored the defense in front of him, and rushed away again with a halberd, Lin Han followed closely, and the two eight-stage martial arts masters suddenly seemed to be in a no-man's land, even though there were many soldiers, but there was no one who dared to block the way. If there were one or two who dared to stab out their weapons, Jiang Ming and Lin Han would also react as soon as possible, and at the same time kill them mercilessly.
Jiang Ming's ruthlessness towards the roadblockers made the battalion soldiers quite frightened, this was not the same as fighting with the Qin soldiers or barbarians, because the other party was the general of Wohua Mountain, if it were not for the unique sub-battalion system of the Wohua Mountain, these two would also be their commanders. But Rao is like this, the military etiquette and rules in the barracks cannot be abolished, as long as a person with a little brain, he can distinguish between right and wrong, and Jiang Ming and Lin Han only kill those who block, which makes many soldiers even more lucky, and dodging has become a better way to deal with it.
"All dodges, according to the deserter order!"
But he walked out of the front of him, a ghost-headed big knife in his hand, looking majestic, and there were different generals around him, Jiang Ming strangled the horse's head, and did not rush forward to kill, he could feel the momentum of the other party, if he was not able to reach the eighth-stage position, it was impossible to have this kind of background.
Lin Han walked forward slowly, looked at the general and said: "Boldly bow Shao, don't forget your identity, the dignified commander and deputy general, you dare to fight the commander head-on, aren't you afraid of strict military regulations?"
Ju Shao bowed with his knife and said: "In this military camp, the military regulations set by the great commander are the military regulations, from top to bottom, from high to low, if the subordinates do not obey the order, then what is the use of these military regulations? ”
Jiang Ming sneered: "What a Ju Shao, in the face of the two of us, he still has such an attitude, he really deserves to be Huyanwu's lackey." This statement is reasonable, as if it was me and Lin Han's fault first, it is really eloquent, no wonder outsiders often say that the first camp of Wohua Mountain is full of talented people!"
Ju Shao was not afraid at all, but met Jiang Ming's eyes full of murderous intent, and said: "Thank you for the praise of the nine commanders, and I hope that the two commanders can dismount and tie their hands, and don't make it difficult for my brothers in the barracks, after all, they are all from Wohua Mountain, so as not to hurt the harmony." ”516
Lin Han shouted: "Then how can you not hurt your peace? The two of us tie up our hands and let you slaughter? How can you convict a mere deputy general in front of us? Ju Shao, you followed Hu Yanwu's good temper, trapped the two of us outside the camp, and delayed the reception, and then broke into the camp gate before us, waiting to put this rebellious hat on our heads, you think very well, but don't you know, if your deputy general is guilty, I can kill you directly!"
Ju Shao's intimidation this time did not have the effect it should have, after listening to Lin Han's words, his eyes also trembled slightly, but he raised his hand, and the surrounding soldiers slowly surrounded him, and he persuaded again: "Two commanders, let's quickly dismount and tie up, these soldiers' halberds and bows and arrows don't have eyes!"
Ju Shao's unrelenting attitude made the two extremely angry, and Jiang Ming asked in a low voice: "This Ju Shao can be regarded as Hu Yanwu's henchman, I wonder if he has broken through the eighth stage?"
Lin Han looked at Jiang Ming, his eyes flickered slightly, and said: "Ju Shao was at the peak of the seventh stage in his early years, and it is very likely that he has broken through, I understand what you mean, the others are handed over to me, and this Ju Shao is handed over to you to deal with." But I still advise you, don't kill him directly, otherwise this military camp will be in chaos, and it will not be good for Wohua Mountain. ”
"Good!"
Jiang Ming dismounted, and the soldiers thought that he was succumbing to the large number of soldiers in the camp and planned to tie his hands temporarily, but everyone saw him slowly raise the halberd and make a swooping posture, which was no longer a tie-down, but to provoke a real battle.
"Archer!"
Between Ju Shao's shouting, there were more than a dozen arrows shooting towards Jiang Ming, but Jiang Ming was not afraid at all, compared to the archery skills of Chu Hong and those archers in the eighth battalion, these people were much worse in strength and speed, when the Fang Yuan halberd swung violently, more than a dozen arrows were immediately swept away, and several of them actually pierced the bodies of the soldiers in the battalion next to them under the blow of the halberd.
"Ju Shao, it seems that only by catching you can I see Hu Yanwu!"
Jiang Ming rushed forward, the momentum of the eighth-stage martial arts master was unstoppable, how could ordinary soldiers dare to resist, and all the soldiers avoided it according to their strength. Seeing this, Ju Shao was greatly surprised, but he was not afraid of Jiang Ming, the ghost-headed big knife was suddenly raised, and he slashed towards Jiang Ming.
Being able to raise a knife in this situation, it can be seen that this Ju Shao's courage is also extremely extraordinary, Jiang Ming doesn't care who the opponent is, Fang Yuan's halberd slashes out horizontally, and the power of domineering is fully displayed, the swords and halberds intersect, just a moment of contact, Ju Shao bounces out, and Jiang Ming does not move at all, and the strength and weakness of the high and low have been judged.
Ju Shao took seven or eight steps back to stabilize his figure, obviously he made the first move, but the reverse of the move completely followed Jiang Ming's Fang Yuan halberd, which was completely different from the power of the eight leads, making his palm almost numb.
"This Ju Shao has really advanced to the eighth-stage position, but he still can't understand the intention of Yanwu, the martial arts moves are all other people's moves, and they are definitely not as good as Yu Bu. Jiang Ming thought secretly for a moment, and then rushed away again, this time his speed suddenly increased, but it was not an ordinary move at all, but the earliest martial arts technique he comprehended, Half Moon, Busheng Lotus.
"What if it's the peak of the eighth rank, I'm not afraid!" Ju Shao snorted coldly, and then greeted him again, and it was Hu Yanwu's order to stop outside the camp in the future, he was the most powerful lieutenant of the commander, he just had to do his best, even if he was only a beginner in the eighth rank, he could still fight anyone.
Just as Jiang Ming and Ju Shao were confronting, Lin Han was not idle, he was keenly aware that there were three seventh-rank generals in this battalion, all of whom he had seen in Wohua Mountain, and he could be regarded as the deputy general of Huyanwu, but he was not as important as Ju Shao.
"Three seventh-rank martial artists, I'll try to defeat them for as long as I can. ”
Lin Han deliberately lured the three of them out of the battalion, and it was naturally impossible for these three seven-stage martial artists to continue to shrink into the crowd, and the three of them all saw what Lin Han meant, but they did not have the arrogance of Ju Shao, and after bowing slightly to Lin Han, they held their respective weapons.
Just a few minutes later, the battle between Jiang Ming and Lin Han entered the hot stage, Lin Han took the first step to sweep through the thousand armies, knocking the three seventh-rank martial artists away, although they were not seriously injured, but this skin suffered but had to endure it, but for them, withdrawing from the battlefield at this time was the best result.
The three seven-rank generals were defeated, and these onlookers naturally did not dare to make another attack on Lin Han, Lin Han also had the leisure to observe Jiang Ming's battle, even if he reminded Jiang Ming not to let him go too far, but it seems that Jiang Ming did not take this to heart, Fang Yuan Halberd was already domineering, and in terms of martial arts realm and martial arts understanding, Jiang Ming's martial arts were much higher than Ju Shao, Ju Shao had fallen from the beginning, and he almost never fought back, and he was pressed and beaten by Jiang Ming throughout the whole process.
Lin Han looked at this scene and said secretly: "It seems that Jiang Ming is determined to trouble Hu Yanwu, otherwise he would not have shot so hard, this is the third time that the half-moon step has given birth to a lotus, and the second time it has been broken, although Jiang Ming did not plan to kill Ju Shao, but this method can already seriously injure him." But that's fine, it seems that Hu Yanwu is about to take it anymore. ”
But seeing Jiang Ming and Ju Shao fighting, Jiang Ming did not intend to hide his strength, when the half-moon step was fast, the halberd blade cut Ju Shao's arms together, and the Jian Po style even cracked the ghost head big knife, Ju Shao, as the most courageous general under Hu Yanwu, this was the first time he was beaten by his opponent like this.
In the past, once the enemy of the eight-stage martial arts master participated, Hu Yanwu would fight with him, but this time Hu Yanwu was injured and committed the big crime of destroying grain and grass, it stands to reason that he will not help him, without Hu Yanwu, he will be the strongest general in this military camp.
Ju Shao was put on his neck by Jiang Ming's halberd, and stepped on Ju Shao's abdomen without any expectation, Ju Shao's body suddenly flew out four or five meters, and a huge pain was transmitted to his body, and he didn't seem to immediately raise the big knife.
Jiang Ming suddenly crossed the halberd, and the battalion soldiers beside him all retreated three feet, Jiang Ming looked at Ju Shao who was lying on the ground, and said: "It seems that this Hu Yanwu is really ruthless, the subordinates will be beaten like this by me, and they won't come out to take care of it, what's the point of you persevering? Although you have advanced to the eighth rank, there is still a lot of gap between you and Hu Yanwu, I remember the last time Hu Yanwu took advantage of my injury to challenge me, you were also watching from the side, right? It is worth noting that I came to find a field today. ”
Hearing Jiang Ming's words, Ju Shao did not get angry at all, suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and then slowly stood up again, describing himself as extremely embarrassed.
That time Hu Yanwu used the excuse to challenge and humiliate Jiang Ming, he was indeed standing on the side, he could clearly feel that Hu Yanwu and Jiang Ming both had murderous intent towards each other, but he didn't pay attention to these, he just remembered that Hu Yanwu said that if there was a chance, he would ask the mountain lord to make him the new commander.
It was a promise that made him feel excited, he respected the commander Hu Yanwu even more, and originally had various plans to express his gratitude to Hu Yanwu, but not long ago, the cavalry of the mountain lord sent the news that this martial artist, who had not officially declared that he had joined Wohua Mountain, became the new commander of Wohua Mountain, ranked ninth, and had the power to establish a military camp on his own.
Originally, it was a privilege that belonged to him, but it was snatched away by the person in front of him, and he was unwilling. He has been a general under Hu Yanwu for several years, and he has been doing his best to saddle the horse, and the only thing he looks forward to is that one day he will be able to sit in the position of commander, so that the name Ju Shao is truly on par with Hu Yanwu and Lin Han.
Wohua Mountain has not had a new commander for many years, and the original Chu Hong also joined Wohua Mountain when he had just been promoted to the eighth stage, and the mountain lord Zong Kun gave him the position of commander, since other people can, he Ju Shao will definitely be able to.
He stood up slowly, although he already felt that this Jiang Ming had the ability to fight with Hu Yanwu, but the unwillingness in his heart still urged him to fight.
"Even if I don't have the title of leader, I want to announce to everyone that I bow and am not inferior to others!"
