Chapter 43: The farce ends
originally thought it was a battle without suspense, but it turned out to be really no suspense, but there was a contrast with everyone's expectations.
Among these preparatory generals in the West Garden, the strong man is also a person with outstanding martial arts, his strength is amazing, and he is quite superb with a long lance, any of them, against him, there is no certainty of victory, who would have thought that today he originally wanted to find Chen Mo's bad luck, and cut off his luck to succeed, but he was defeated by Chen Mo's three swords.
The contrast is hard to accept.
On the stage, Wang Yue's eyes lit up, ordinary people only felt that Chen Mo's three swords were good, but in the eyes of Wang Yue, a swordsman, Chen Mo's three swords showed that his control over the sword was not something that ordinary swordsmen could do, at least in terms of foundation, Chen Mo had an extremely solid foundation.
"You ......" The strong man covered his wrist, which was still painful, looked at Chen Mo's eyes full of unwillingness, gritted his teeth and said: "If it is a horse battle, you will definitely lose." ”
"But it's a foot fight." Chen Mo was a little speechless, if it was on the battlefield, even if it was a foot battle, with the opponent's physique and strength, this big lance could also exert great lethality, the sword was light and agile, there were not many places on the battlefield for Chen Mo to toss and turn, purely competitive, don't say that his own strength is not as good as a strong man, just in the weapon, the sword is very bad, plus the strength of the strong man's right arm, so that Chen Mo can win so easily.
Thanks to Qian Shuo, otherwise Chen Mo's battle this time would be mysterious, a strong man with sufficient strength, even if it was a stab just now, Chen Mo might not be able to dodge it so easily.
"The loser is out!" The soldier who was in charge of supervising the battlefield on the side said coldly.
The strong man was naturally unwilling, and his brain couldn't be compared, even if he lost to this young man who was nearly ten years younger than himself in terms of proud force, he felt that the eyes of the people around him were full of mockery.
"Do you dare to fight again?" The strong man figured it out, he should choose a knife, his right arm was weak, so that the lance was not smooth at all, but if he used a wooden knife, Chen Mo would definitely not be his opponent.
"Don't dare, I still won, why do this again?" Chen Mo threw it away, the wooden sword landed accurately on the weapon rack, and he retreated from the center without looking back, and the competition of the others began.
The strong man looked at Chen Mo's back and clenched his fists, but he was helpless, and finally could only turn into an angry roar and walk towards the outside of the school field indignantly.
Because everyone had different degrees of detachment in their arms yesterday, today's battle naturally could not be so intense, and in less than an hour, the competition was all over.
"This is my Han soldier? Why are you so powerless? Qian Shuo stood on the platform, this competition saw him yawn the whole time, although he didn't understand the art of war, but he understood martial arts, he was a close attendant of the Son of Heaven, he still had a vision in this regard, which is also the reason why he set the competition to win the general, he can understand this, and it is precisely because of this that he is very dissatisfied with the performance of these people today.
"Shuogong!" Wang Yue said helplessly: "Yesterday's bow and arrow competition, all the soldiers were afraid that their arms were secretly injured, and after fighting every other day, it is difficult to use no matter how much strength they have." ”
"Seeing that all the soldiers and horses are about to enter the West Garden, they are all so weak, how can they convince the public?" Qian Shuo was a little anxious, he now understood that he had done a stupid thing yesterday, but at this time, he was more worried that when the Son of Heaven inspected the three armies, he would find this problem and punish him.
"Don't worry, Shuo Gong is just exhausted, and after three or five days of cultivation, it will be fine." Wang Yue's smile was a little stiff.
"Will the fight continue tomorrow as usual?" Qian Shuo asked, there is not much time left, according to the will of the Son of Heaven, before deciding on the commander of the new army in Xiyuan, it is necessary to let these new generals run in with the new army as soon as possible, and control the actual military power of the new army in their hands before determining the main general.
"This ......" Wang Yue said helplessly when he heard this: "If the horse battle is carried out tomorrow, I am afraid it will be the result of today, and the horse war is not as good as the foot battle, and it is easy to have casualties." ”
"Then it's not like a horse fight, and tomorrow we will continue to fight on foot!" Qian Shuo thought for a while and said: "But the rules need to be changed, one person challenges, and those who lose three in a row are official generals, and everyone has three chances to challenge, until sixty people are selected." ”
"It's fine." Wang Yue could only nod helplessly when he heard this, he already looked like a ghost, and the way Qian Shuo thought of fighting this time was more reliable than before.
"Tomorrow, however, we need real weapons." Qian Shuo added.
"Whoa!" Wang Yue sighed, bowed, and went to arrange, now that Gao Shun is not doing anything, these things can only be handled by him.
……
"With real weapons?" After Cui Geng, Chen Mo and the others received the order, their faces were a little unsightly, and they gritted their teeth and said, "What does this eunuch take our lives for?" ”
With wooden weapons today, several people were injured, and if they were replaced with real weapons, even if someone died on the battlefield tomorrow, Cui Geng would not be surprised at all.
After all, there are no eyes for knives and guns, not to mention that it is not excluded that someone will take the opportunity to retaliate, and generally in this case, even if he dies in battle, he will not be asked.
"It's not like that, now everyone is exhausted and their power is limited." Chen Mo sighed.
Ten permanent servants of the cholera dynasty, in Chen Mo's point of view, it may not be that these people are really traitors, but they are just a means used by the Son of Heaven to deal with his relatives, balance the forces in the court, and let himself do what he wants to do but can't do, to put it bluntly, these eunuchs are just weapons in the hands of the Son of Heaven.
But sometimes these people are really not enough to succeed and more than they lose, originally used to collect military power, after this incident, I am afraid that the final selection of these people has mastered the military power, and may have resistance to the eunuchs and even the Son of Heaven.
Cui Geng sighed, Chen Mo's words were just comforting people, there were people injured with wooden knives and wooden swords today, not to mention real guns?
And the result of the next day's fight, as Cui Geng expected, someone was killed at the beginning.
It is said that each person has three chances, but in the end, how many people have actually used up these three chances?
However, Chen Mo, although he was young, acted quite steadily, and waited until the end before he launched a challenge and defeated the last person, the original one hundred and twenty people, after this battle, only seventy-eight people survived, and everyone was injured, forty-two soldiers with good martial arts fell on the school field, and the blood of serving the country has not had time to play, it has been exhausted, and the death of these people is just in exchange for some dignity of Qian Shuo, when Gao Shun learned about it, he almost took a knife and cut Qian Shuo directly, Fortunately, Wang Yue intervened to stop it, and Chen Mo led a group of people to hold Gao Shun, so things didn't worsen, but Gao Shun's career was ruined.
