Chapter 35:-for-tat
Xu is pretending to be in his heart, and on the fourth watch, Song Huaijin couldn't sleep, so he simply got up early in the morning and went directly to the Nine Kings' Mansion to ask for orders to quell the rebellion against Jingyang City.
After getting the permission of the Nine Emperors, she rushed to the military camp non-stop to find An Yi to borrow troops.
An Yi is the general of Anling, the uncle of the Nine Emperor Princes, who has been in charge of Anling's military power all these years, and he is also an upright person, but he was quite dissatisfied with her last violation of discipline and killing Bai Zijian, and he didn't give her a good look.
When she arrived, An Yi had just finished training at the shooting range, sat aside to rest, glanced at her and said:
"Huai Jin, it's not that I don't want to lend you troops, you are a woman, you may not even be able to hold the robbery steadily, how can I let you lead the troops?"
As soon as these words came out, the soldiers stopped their movements one after another, and each turned their heads to look at Song Huaijin with an unknown meaning.
Although they have all heard of Song Huaijin's prestige to some extent, it is really unprecedented for a woman to lead soldiers.
What did the Nine Emperors think? Can such a thin little girl be convinced? Don't let the wind blow away anymore!
Song Huaijin didn't care about everyone's questioning eyes, and smiled at An Yi: "I hold a steady gun, if General An doesn't believe it, we can compare." ”
Her voice was not loud, but as soon as these words came out, the barracks completely exploded, and the sharp ridicule was overwhelming.
General Li, who was once used as a bench by Song Huaijin, saw this and took the lead in shouting:
"Our General An is a sharpshooter, and no one in the entire Anling can compare to him, and you dare to argue with him as a woman?"
"That's it! Little girl, didn't we look down on you, have you ever touched a musket? Don't let that sound scare you out of your eyes. ”
"Is the Nine Emperor Princes crazy? Let such a woman who is less than twenty lead the army? I'm the first to disagree! ”
Under the leadership of General Li, the shouts of the soldiers became more and more intense, as if Song Huaijin's visit to the barracks today was a big joke.
An Yi smiled, grabbed a small musket beside him and threw it to her: "You are standing here, the soldiers have practiced the target, if you can hit, I will compare with you!" ”
Song Huaijin took the small musket, looked at the small target marked with a red heart a hundred meters away, held it, bored it, and put his finger on the trigger...
Looking at the way she held the gun, General Li Shen was full of disdain, and sneered: "I don't even know that Lizheng is aiming, just wait to be embarrassed!" ”
When everyone heard this, they laughed!
Bang!
The sound of the bullet being bored was particularly clear, instantly dispersing the laughter one after another, and in the silence, the soldiers stared incredulously at the target hit by the bullet.
With a "snap", it hit the bull's-eye.
Before the sigh of surprise could be heard, a blood mark slowly slid down from General Li's face.
It was Song Huaijin's bullet that had just been scratched.
Li Shen shook his body, immediately covered his face with a "whoosh", sat on the ground with his buttocks, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
Song Huaijin turned his eyes and looked at him with a smile, and said insincerely: "Oh, General Li, I'm really sorry, you blocked my aim." ”
General Li's face was like a vegetable, he had completely lost the strength to speak, the corners of his lips were pale and trembling, and he almost burst his head with the bullet.
It is said that if you offend a gentleman, you must not offend a villain, Song Huaijin is simply a complete villain and a scoundrel hypocrite!
The soldiers turned their heads one after another, and their eyes widened even more at the small musket that was still emitting wisps of white smoke in Song Huaijin's hand.
She really hit the bull's-eye right in the eye with such an angle, such a distance, with this light and breezy attitude!
How did she manage to do it even to a veteran who had been training in the army for five years?
And the bullet grazed General Li's face, and anyone could see that she did it on purpose, how did such a shot be done?
Song Huaijin ignored everyone's jaws, smiled slightly and put away the robbery, she had trained for more than 20 years in her previous life, how many open guns and secret guns had been fired, and it was not easy to calculate a ballistic.
Stretched out his hand to return the gun to An Yi, and asked casually: "This musket is too powerful, is there a bigger one?" ”
An Yi got up slowly, and carefully looked at Song Huaijin from head to toe, this beautiful face and slender little hands, how can it not look like killing people with a gun?
It's incredible!
As if he had found some treasure, An Yi couldn't suppress his excitement, and immediately ordered: "Take out our best musket!" ”
Soon, the two soldiers brought two guns.
Song Huaijin carefully looked at the gun, the production was made of high-quality materials, and the weight and structure of the appearance were similar to the current Ninety-Five Style.
At the same time, in the distance, three apples were hung up with thin strings, pushed by a soldier, and swayed back and forth.
An Yi glanced at Song Huaijin: "Within two shots, whoever knocks out two apples first will win!" ”
"Good!" Song Huaijin answered, raised his gun and concentrated, and stood up aiming at an apple on the far left.
There was silence in the audience, and everyone watched the ending of this "duel" intently.
If it is said that the soldiers were still a little dissatisfied with Song Huaijin before, but they have been dissipated by the shot she just shot, and some even began to look forward to the result of this duel.
Bang! Bang!
Two shots were fired at the front and back, and the two apples on the left and right shattered in response.
An Yi was aiming at the third apple, when he suddenly heard the gunshots from Song Huaijin's side, and immediately opened fire in pursuit.
The two bullets went almost in tandem, and the soldiers stared at the apple without blinking, for fear that one would close their eyes and miss the wonderful ending.
With a snap, the apple fell to the ground. Apple's line... Broken?!
Song Huaijin's shot broke the thread that tied the apple, and An Yi's shot missed, hitting the tree next to him.
The soldier who collected the apple was dumbfounded, looking at the thin line that was burned by the ** and couldn't believe it.
Song Huaijin put away the gun and said with a smile: "General An, is this considered to be a drop of the apple?" ”
An Yi hadn't recovered from the shock just now, and only after a while did he realize that he showed a big smile, and the unpleasantness with Song Huaijin before was swept away, and he looked at her incredulously after handing over the gun to his subordinates:
"Huai Jin, how did you practice this marksmanship? Teach me! ”
The soldiers looked at Song Huaijin in disbelief even more than An Yi, this seemingly weak and beautiful woman, holding the musket was not ambiguous at all, and won the sharpshooter An Yi in their hearts.
Most of them are rude, and they have seen many rich ladies crying in fright by gunshots on weekdays, and they have long been tired of this kind of delicate beauty, but Song Huaijin completely subverted their views.
How can there be such a woman in the world, who makes people yearn for it inexplicably, but they will never be out of reach.
Song Huaijin saluted An Yi and said with a hearty smile: "Okay, it's just this matter of borrowing soldiers..."
"That's easy to say." An Yi stretched out his hand and patted her shoulder: "Didn't you say a few days ago that Chu Weiran reported Bai Zijian for merit in transferring him back?" This time, you take 50,000 soldiers and horses to Jingyang City, and let him follow you, how about it? ”
"Thank you, General Ann." Before Song Huaijin could finish his stroke, he was helped up by An Yi: "What's polite, come and teach me how to shoot this gun, and let me also teach my soldiers." ”
"Good!"
Song Huaijin was dragged away by An Yi, and taught him to calculate the trajectory in the simplest way before going to dock with Chu Weiran.
In a blink of an eye, it was busy until the evening, Chu Weiran was very grateful to her for helping her reinstate her official position, took her to the door of the house by car, and warmly welcomed her out of the car.
Song Huaijin was really tired this day, so he didn't have the heart to say politely to him: "Then that's it, I will send troops at noon tomorrow, and I will go back first." ”
"Don't..." As soon as Song Huaijin turned around, he was pulled by Chu Weiran by a sleeve: "Huaijin, you like me, right?" ”
