Chapter 287: Knocking on the Mountain and Shaking the Tiger
Early the next morning, the early morning sun shone on the cleaned school field, and the fifty soldiers of the Relief Camp stood in a phalanx, quietly looking at the picturesque people who came side by side with Sun Xiu.
Orchids are not rare - there are many in Wuchang City, and the famous Zhaojunfang is famous for its many and beautiful orchids - but there are very few orchids who are good at martial arts and can be treated as a guest by Princess Sun Luban, and their rarity is no less than that of Mrs. Sun, who is brave and does not let her eyebrows.
Zhu Ying, the former team leader who had just been dismissed, stood in the queue, his hostile eyes scanning back and forth on the picturesque body. She was born as Mrs. Sun's maidservant, and after many years of hard work, she finally got to the team rate, but she never thought that Sun Luban would remove her from her post as soon as she came.
She had complained to Mrs. Sun, but was rejected by Mrs. Sun in a word.
Who made you lose to Sun Xiu? In the army, the strong are respected, and if your skills are not as good as others, you will obediently be a subordinate. When you can win against Sun Xiu one day, you will be the team leader again.
Zhu Ying was not convinced. She only lost to Sun Xiu Yihe, and the gap was not big. If Sun Xiu wasn't Sun Luban's personal maid, she wouldn't even lose. It's just that the wood is already in the boat, and she can only accept the status quo and wait for the opportunity.
Seeing that Sun Xiu asked an orchid to help sit in the formation, she secretly sneered. In the final analysis, Sun Xiu was still too young and had no confidence, so he had to ask someone for help. But it's not good to ask anyone for help, you have to invite a servant girl from the Wei State, and it's an orchid.
Zhu Ying rubbed his hands. When the opportunity comes, we must seize it. She can't do her best against Sun Xiu, but she doesn't need to be heavy on the orchid invited by Sun Xiu.
After a few cold words, Sun Xiu had just announced Ruhua's identity, and Zhu Ying loudly objected and challenged Ruhua.
Sun Xiu was very unhappy and was about to stop drinking, but Ruhua grabbed her and happily accepted the challenge.
The two exchanged a few polite words and drew their knives to fight. In the face of Zhu Ying's ferocious attack, Ruhua held a knife in both hands, blocking left and right, which seemed to be extremely thrilling, but he easily turned Zhu Ying's attacks into invisibility one by one, without even moving a single step. When Zhu Ying's breath was out of breath due to the continuous attack, and the offensive was disjointed, she rushed in, hit her knees and elbows, and instantly knocked Zhu Ying to the ground.
The crowd was dumbfounded. The victory and defeat were divided so quickly that almost no one could see how Zhu Ying was knocked out.
Zhu Ying didn't understand either, so she got up and fought again.
Picturesque calmly responded to the battle, knocking down Zhu Ying seven times in succession, and it became easier and easier. In the end, Zhu Ying was almost never given a chance to attack, and he attacked first, using the same moves, but it worked repeatedly. No matter how Zhu Ying defends, she can grab Zhu Ying's middle door within two combinations and knock down head-on.
Zhu Ying was stunned, and others were also stunned, including Sun Xiu.
Sun Xiu has asked Zhishu and Ruhua for martial arts, and even learned the moves that Ruhua used just now, but it is completely two effects from Ruhua's hands and her.
Facing everyone's awe-inspiring eyes, I said modestly and picturesquely, not how good my martial arts are, but that the martial arts I practice are originally suitable for private fighting. You are practicing battlefield martial arts, which is more suitable for fighting in formation. On the battlefield, your martial arts are more useful. In a one-on-one private fight, I have an advantage.
Most people don't seem to understand, and most people don't have such a concept. But with the picturesque explanations and demonstrations, they quickly understood the difference. Zhu Ying regretted Mo Die, she knew that this would be the case, and she would not challenge Ruxiang if she was killed, it was simply a humiliation.
Zhu Ying was depressed, but Sun Xiu was overjoyed. Her warm hospitality was picturesque, and she formally asked picturesque to help her train her subordinates.
Picturesque politely declined. Zhishu is injured and has difficulty moving, I have to take care of the lord's daily life, and I don't have time to train your subordinates, so I can only come and have a look occasionally. If you have time to go to the courtyard, I can talk to you, and if you are in a good mood when you meet the lord, maybe he will guide you personally.
Sun Xiu was very regretful, but he had no choice but to turn around and ask Sun Luban for instructions. It's okay to secretly go to the small courtyard where Cao Miao lives occasionally, and to go often, you must get Mrs. Sun's permission.
The picturesque display of his skills soon spread throughout the army in the camp and reached the ears of Mrs. Sun.
After Mrs. Sun questioned Zhu Ying carefully, she called Sun Luban again. She heard Sun Luban mention this, but she didn't ask carefully. In her opinion, no matter how strong a person's martial arts are, it is useless to go to the battlefield, and those who are brave and ruthless often die ugly.
There are countless similar experiences.
She was interested in the difference between the two martial arts, which was very creative and eye-catching.
But Sun Luban was full of praise for Cao Miao's martial arts, especially when he mentioned Cao Miao's martial arts, his eyebrows flew and danced, and he talked endlessly, almost using up all the good words she knew, and praised Cao Miao to the sky.
Mrs. Sun couldn't help but smile. "Is it really that good?"
Although he felt that it was not appropriate to praise a man in front of Mrs. Sun, Sun Luban still nodded vigorously. "If my aunt sees it with her own eyes, she will know that I am telling the truth." She thought for a moment and said, "He said that his ambition is not to kill people, but to enter the Tao with martial arts, which I don't think is a false statement." ”
"Entering the Tao with martial arts? Could it be that he can still become an immortal and fly against the wind? ”
Sun Luban smiled wryly. "He didn't say that."
Mrs. Sun put down the pen and ink in her hand, thoughtful, and her mood became heavy.
The picturesque performance reminded her of the orchid who had entered the Wuchang Palace. Although she didn't know whether that person was Miaoqin or Xuanqi, she could definitely be Cao Miao's subordinate. With such a person stealth in Wuchang, she naturally can't take it lightly.
She had been tracking down the two men and had nothing to gain.
Originally, she thought it was just bad luck and hadn't found a clue yet, but now she kind of understood. I'm afraid it's not a matter of good luck, but those two are too good at it, and the trouble-relieving soldiers under her command are no opponents at all, let alone those from the school affairs department.
There is no time to arrange troops in the city for chasing, and most of them are short fights of three or five people. When the martial arts of the two sides are almost the same, the annoying soldiers can also drag the opponent while calling for reinforcements, and copy them in all directions, so as to dominate the outnumbered. But if the difference in martial arts between the two sides is too great, the trouble-relieving soldiers will be knocked down in an instant, just like Zhu Ying being knocked down by the picturesque, and there will be no time to call for reinforcements.
If she can't solve this problem, even if she releases all the trouble-relieving soldiers under her, she may not be able to catch the two orchids.
This is not a combat mode she is familiar with. In other words, she has always used the wrong combat mode, but she has not encountered an opponent like Cao Miao, so she has not encountered any problems, and she thinks that she is as solid as a rock and does not leak.
In fact, in the face of real masters, Wuchang City is an undefended fortress, full of flaws.
Think about it again, was the assassin who infiltrated Wuchang Palace really unable to hurt Sun Quan, or did Cao Miao not want to assassinate Sun Quan in the first place? If it's the latter, what should Cao Miao do if Cao Miao is in a hurry and has murderous intentions?
The Art of War: I can't win against me, but I can win against the enemy. The only way to get rid of this hidden danger is to train your soldiers to adapt to this combat mode.
"Invite Cao Miao to a feast." Mrs. Sun said. "Hearing is false, seeing is believing, I want to see his skills with my own eyes."
