Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Contest (2)
On the viewing platform, Chen Cheng saw the scene where Ma Chao shot his opponent away, and couldn't help but clap his hands and exclaim: "Ma Ercheng is difficult to compete with!" ”
Liu Qian's eyes widened and asked, "Juluhou, can't you beat him?" ”
"Uh," Chen Cheng paused for a moment and said, "I definitely couldn't beat him before." ”
Liu Qian understood, covered her mouth and smiled: "That means I can win him now." ”
Ma Chao killed Danriji, and then drove the war horse to the high platform. Seeing him menacing, the soldiers on and off the stage became nervous, and drew their blades to block in front of Chen Cheng and Liu Qian.
"Juluhou, do you dare to come down and fight me?"
The horses galloped back and forth in front of the high platform, Ma Chao pointed his spear at the high platform, and said in high spirits: "Do you dare to fight to the death with me?" ”
Liu Qian said angrily: "This person is so rude!" ”
Chen Cheng stretched out his hand and touched her hair, and said, "It's just young and vigorous." ”
He stood up, took two steps forward, and was about to speak, when another horse jumped into the field. Chen Cheng looked fixedly, but it was Yan Xing who rushed into the martial arts arena with a spear. He smiled, swallowed the words he was about to say back to his stomach, and returned to Liu Qian to sit down.
"Ma Chao, I'll fight you!" Yan Xing also didn't wear armor, but was wearing a plain beard suit, he carried a spear and shouted to Ma Chao: "Let you also know that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world!" ”
Ma Chao turned around, saw that it was Yan Xing, and sneered: "Who should I be, it turns out to be you puppy!" ”
Yan Xing sneered, no longer bothered with Ma Chao, and drove the war horse to kill him. Ma Chao was not afraid and rushed head-on. The riding battle is very thrilling, and life and death are only in an instant. But the riding battle was also very boring, and when the two men had horses, they stabbed them with spears and stabbed them, which sounded very yellow and violent.
Yan Xing and Ma Chao are rising stars in Liangzhou, both of them are eight feet tall, with superb force, and they have killed more than a dozen rounds, regardless of victory or defeat. The process of their battle is thrilling every time, and the slightest mistake is the end of five steps of blood spattered. The crowd on the side was fascinated and kept shouting.
I don't know when, Ma Teng also appeared on the side of the field, watching nervously at the two sides of the war.
On the high platform, Liu Qian hammered the calf, which was already a little numb, and asked, "Juluhou, which of them do you say will win?" ”
Chen Cheng looked at Yan Xing and Ma Chao, who were staggered again, and replied, "It's hard to say. ”
He explained: "These two people are very strong in martial arts, and the war horses are similar, it depends on the performance of the battle, and anyone can win." ”
Liu Qian hammered for a while and asked, "What if Ma Chao dies?" ”
Chen Cheng glanced at Ma Teng and said in a low voice, "If that situation really happens, then I can only run away with Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
Liu Qian chuckled and said, "Didn't you say before that this would not happen?" ”
"This time, that time."
On the martial arts field, Ma Chao's muscles were tense, staring at Yan Xing who was rushing towards him. The spear stabbed like a viper, and he caught a glimpse of the situation and swung his spear to block. The barrels of the guns intersected, making a dull sound. This time, neither of them chose to turn around and sprint again, but instead fought wildly.
The spear kept stabbing out, and the barrel of the spear kept shaking in the air, like a pear blossom blooming. Ma Chao made a move to attack, but they were all calmly resolved by Yan Xing. After fighting for so long, it was still in vain, and Ma Chao couldn't help but get anxious. He let out a loud shout, and the spear was handed over to his left hand, sweeping backwards.
The wind suddenly rose behind him, and Yan Xing grabbed the saddle and fell to the right without thinking. He drilled from under the horse's belly to the left, and there was no room for the spear in his hand to turn, so he simply grabbed the tip of the spear and hit Ma Chao's wrist with the tail of the spear. Ma Chao's hand was in severe pain, and the spear came out of his hand.
"Ahh
With the exclamations of everyone on the side, Yan Xing turned over and got on his horse again, and his heart was settled. lost the spear, what else did Ma Chao use to fight him? But a black shadow flashed, the wind sounded rapidly, and Yan Xing was thrown off the horse by Ma Chao.
It turned out that after Ma Chao took off the spear in his hand, he knew that it was not good, and in a hurry, he immediately straightened up from the horse, and then rushed towards Yan Xing. Yan Xing didn't think that Ma Chao would use such a trick, just like Ma Chao didn't expect him to use the trick of "hiding in the stirrups", and was immediately thrown off the horse.
When Ma Teng saw the fierce battle in the field, his heart was raised, and he suddenly saw Yan Xian perform that kind of strange trick and knock away the weapon in Ma Chao's hand, and he couldn't help but scream. After seeing Ma Chao and immediately pounce Yan Xing off the horse's back, the heart that was about to jump to his throat fell back halfway.
Not only him, but everyone in the audience on the side was beating faster, their mouths were dry, and they couldn't help themselves stimulated by this wonderful battle. When the two men of the battle fell off their horses together, there was a distinct sigh from the crowd, but it was not known who they were sighing for.
After Yan Xing fell to the ground, Ma Chao also fell down. The two picked up from the ground and scuffled again. Ma Chao didn't dare to open the distance, rushed into Yan Xing's air circle, and punched him. Yan Xing didn't have time to turn the head of the gun, and hit him with the barrel of the gun.
Ma Chao never thought that he would fall into such a situation, he tensed his muscles, fought on his left shoulder, and smashed his fist into Yan Xing's face. Yan Xing reached out and grabbed Ma Chao's right fist, but the strength of his left hand was not as strong as Ma Chao's, and a fist the size of a casserole hit his chest with his left hand.
"Smack!"
Yan Xing's body shook, and the gun in his right hand was pulled towards Ma Chao's head. Ma Chao had just been hit on the left shoulder, and he couldn't use his strength for the time being, so he turned sideways and grabbed the gun with his right hand. Yan Xing took a step forward, stretched out his left hand, grabbed the tail end of the gun, and then used both hands to strangle Ma Chao's neck with the gun.
Ma Chao only has his right hand to exert force, how to block Yan Xing's two-handed force? The barrel of the gun was pressed against his throat, strangling his face red. Most of the people on the side cheered, they didn't care who was killed, as long as the fight was fierce, as long as someone bleed, they felt very happy.
Ma Teng was stunned for a moment, and then shouted angrily: "Stop, stop!" ”
However, the people around him were cheering, and his voice was drowned out by the voices of thousands of people, and no one could hear him at all. Even if Ma Chaoping is quite arrogant, but after all, father and son nature, how could Ma Teng let his son die in front of him?
He shouted at the stunned soldiers on the side, "Follow me!" ”
The soldiers came to their senses and ran after Ma Teng towards the center of the field. On the high platform, Liu Qian saw the twists and turns of the battle in the venue, and stood up in shock. Chen Cheng was regretting that Ma Chao was about to receive a boxed lunch so soon, when he saw Ma Teng knocking down the fence with dozens of soldiers, and Yan Xing and Ma Chao, who were often entangled, ran away.
He immediately got up from the high platform, took a few steps forward, and jumped. Seeing this, the soldiers up and down the high platform immediately followed.
He doesn't care who lives or dies, whether Yan Xing wins or Ma Chao wins, the two sides are fair, and they should have no regrets about life and death. Now that Ma Teng is clearly pulling the bias, then he can't tolerate it. When co-authoring a martial arts competition, Ma Chao can kill others, but he can't be killed by others?
In the center of the venue, Ma Chao's face had turned from red to purple, and his two eyes were about to burst out, and he was about to die on the spot, but he heard a "click" sound, and the gun in Yan Xing's hand was broken into two sections. As soon as his hand loosened, the whole person fell backwards. Ma Chao has been desperately moving forward, and as soon as the gun was broken, he immediately rushed forward.
His chest, which seemed to be about to explode, suddenly relaxed, and Ma Chao rushed out a few steps, knelt on the ground in pain, and took a deep breath. At this time, he realized how happy it was to be able to breathe smoothly and normally. Many times it is like this, whether it is a person or a thing, when you don't feel that there is anything when you have it, you will feel that it is very ordinary, and only after you lose it will you feel precious.
Ma Teng ran a few steps, helped Ma Chao up, and said urgently: "How are you?" ”
The blood red in Ma Chao's eyes had not completely faded, he grabbed his throat and said with difficulty: "I can't die!" ”
Dozens of soldiers blocked Yan Xing, and Chen Cheng on the opposite side also arrived with soldiers, and after he pulled Yan Xing, who was still waiting to come forward to fight, he said in a low voice: "Okay, look around, if you dare to take another step forward, those people will release arrows!" ”
Yan Xing held two guns in both hands, looked left and right, and the soldiers of the Ma family were quickly surrounding, and many of them had already taken off their bows and arrows. He exerted his strength in his hands and said hatefully: "Okay, good, count him a big life today!" ”
The melon-eating crowd on the side was greatly disappointed and booed. Ma Teng's face was ugly, and he calmly calculated in his heart what would happen if he killed all these people. Just as he was about to give an order with a hideous look on his face, there was a sudden commotion not far away. He looked at the soldiers gathered around Chen Cheng and Yan Xing, and hesitated again.
However, the commotion soon turned into a unified shout, "Han Sui sent troops to Jincheng and has captured Yuzhong!" ”
After Chen Cheng heard this shout, he was still thinking about where Yuzhong was and what the consequences would be if he was occupied by Han Sui, but Ma Teng's face changed suddenly. Yuzhong is the gateway to Jincheng, and if Yuzhong is captured, Jincheng will be directly exposed to Han Sui's troops.
If Jincheng is defeated by Han Sui again, then there will be hundreds of miles of Huangshui Valley behind, and the hundreds of thousands of Qiang people in it will be swallowed up by Han Sui in one fell swoop, and at that time, there will be no more forces in the entire Liangzhou that can compete with Han Sui.
On the border of Liangzhou, there are few Han people and many Hu people, and those Hu people are afraid of power but not virtue. Han Sui has been one of the leaders of the Qianghu people for many years, with huge power and many soldiers and horses, although there are bad deeds of killing Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou, but only those Han people are dissatisfied with him, and many Qiang people have defected to the past.
If it weren't for the fact that those Qiang people did not practice battle and their skills in fighting were not as strong as a small number of Han people, Han Sui would have unified all the departments in Liangzhou a long time ago. Most of the people who can come to Pengyang are a little dissatisfied with Han Sui, or they want to maintain their independent status, but now when they hear that Han Sui has laid down Yuzhong, many people immediately hesitate.
Even Ma Teng was like this, and in an instant, he even had the idea of not daring to be an enemy of Han Sui. After Han Sui killed the kingdom, everyone thought that he was going to attack Ma Teng next, but who knew that they were making a false shot and turned around and captured a fortified city like Yuzhong?
