Chapter 67: Gambling Match
"You!"
"Child-deprecated!"
Finally someone has a reaction!
"Presumptuous? Speaking of presumptuousness, you are really presumptuous! Where are you? If you are too polite, you will kick your nose and face, and your eyes will be empty. ”
"Child, do you know who we are?"
"Who are you, in Liu Cong's opinion, you are just a barbaric mountain people!"
"Boy, don't be ashamed, or my guards won't be polite."
"You're welcome, I think you are not only a brutal mountain people, but also a scum among the mountain people! Lord Taishou is so polite, but you have to inch in, don't you think that my Han saber is not good? ”
Liu Cong began to hear Jiang Wan say that Liu Du was busy receiving the Shanyue leader and had no time to see Jiang Wan, and Liu Cong thought that Liu Du was putting up a fight. Now it seems that these leaders are ignorant, and Liu Du can't get out.
I came up very humble, and no one got up when I stepped forward to salute, and everyone thought they were the king of the mountain.
"Young man, be careful when you speak, but don't flash your tongue. Although the population of my Shanyue people is small, they are all brave and good at fighting, and if they really want to fight, they don't know who wins and who loses? ”
"Everyone, everyone......" Liu Du saw that the atmosphere was getting more and more tense, and hurriedly came over to the round.
"My lord, don't continue to spoil these people!" Liu Cong is young and vigorous, but more importantly, he also took this opportunity to show Liu Du and Jiang Wan. If you can't even deal with a few Shanyue leaders, what can you do to deal with Sun Quan and Cao Cao?
How many years have these Shanyue leaders been, and the Taishou and county orders they have met have all treated them very politely, and today Liu Cong is very tough, and they are really a little uncomfortable. As soon as they made eye contact, they stood up, and the guards behind them also stood up. It is clear that he wants to overpower Liu Cong in momentum.
When Huang Quan and the others saw it, they hurriedly guarded.
Liu Cong waved his hand at Huang Quan and continued: "Now that you have surrendered to my Han, you must respect the rules of the Han. In the future, those with a tribal population of less than 5,000 will not be allowed to set foot in this Taishou Mansion again, and officials above the county order must send a sticker in advance if they have more than 5,000 people. Today, I still have important matters to discuss with Lord Liu, so we will disperse early! ”
"You!" These leaders originally thought that if they stood up, Liu Cong would be soft, but they didn't expect Liu Cong to directly give an order to expel the guests.
What kind of thing is this, it's so arrogant, even the Taishou Lord Liu Du doesn't dare, who is this kid? The Yamakoshi began to mumble.
Even Liu Du didn't expect it, although everyone was too guarded. But Liu Cong also has the identity of a second son, and there are two generals next to him, and they are not lower than him in terms of rank, so he did not stop Liu Cong, but he didn't expect Liu Cong to directly issue an expulsion order. This is a major matter related to national reconciliation and border stability.
"What? Not convinced? This son will let you see and understand, didn't you say that the Shanyue people are brave and good at fighting? Okay, if you want to fight, go to school! I'm Liu Cong to accompany you! It's the monkey that doesn't go! Liu Cong knew that these people didn't have any brain cells, so they could only be brought to their knees by force.
"Just go!" Naturally, the other side is not to be outdone.
"Everyone, everyone, second son, everyone is discouraged......"
In the face of Liu Cong's provocation, these Shanyue leaders didn't intend to give Liu Du face at all, maybe it was usually this kind of virtue, as soon as they heard Liu Cong's debut, they all beckoned the guards to gather in the school yard in the city, and left a sentence: "It's the monkey who doesn't come!" ”
Looking at the figures of these Shanyue people who were far away, Liu Du looked at Liu Cong with a little resentment: "Second son, ......"
"My lord, you are too merciful, that's right, we want to carry out national reconciliation and handle good relations with the Shanyue people, but we are definitely not blindly tolerant and pampered. Today, Liu Cong will cure them when he meets them, don't worry, you just need to ...... like this"
When the Shanyue people arrived at the school ground, they shouted there, completely ignoring Liu Cong and others, they had been eating and drinking here for a long time, and they were just in a panic, and they never thought that someone would send them to the door.
"Childe...... What do you want? Huang Quan knew that Liu Cong was not a reckless person, but today he was a little incomprehensible.
"Since you have to draw a path for the competition, what is your name?" Liu Cong changed the politeness of the first meeting and directly used his fingers.
"Hmph, Meng Qide, the leader in the south of Xiagui"
"Meng Qide, right, you just said how your Shanyue is, and today you people will represent Shanyue, you won't think I take advantage of you, right?"
"No!" It is good to call Meng Qide to hold his own martial arts, and the accompanying guards are also excellent, and Liu Cong is certainly not an advantage for them to represent Shanyue.
"Well, my son came to visit Lord Taishou today, and he didn't choose it. In this way, we, on behalf of the Great Khan, will compete with you three times. They are horse fighting, mounted archery and hand-to-hand combat. There is one person from each side of each game, what do you think? ”
"Good!" Meng Qide was also worried that Liu Cong would bully more and less, there were only a dozen of them here, if Liu Cong played tricks and attracted hundreds of county soldiers, no matter how brave they were, they would not be able to resist. One-on-one is naturally fair.
"Also, since it's a competition, you have to have a little bit of a lottery. You treat my Han officials and people so rudely, you must also be good at self-sustaining martial arts, if you lose today, you must obediently abide by my Han law! If I lose, I will kowtow to you to make amends! ”
But as soon as Liu Cong's words came out, his personal mentality was different.
Han Yi, Jiang Wan, and Liu Min sweated for Liu Cong, while Huang Quan, Yuqi and others were giggling there.
As soon as the two sides discussed the competition, Liu Du came over: "Everyone, since it is a competition, it can't be without a hot field, the old man is not talented, a few days ago I trained a group of archers, now let them perform for everyone." ”
"Good!" Liu Cong smiled at everyone, and Jiang Wan and others also laughed and laughed as if they didn't understand.
Those Shanyue leaders also laughed when they heard that Liu Du was going to send archers to play, but they laughed. In their opinion, the people of Shanyue are all marksmen. Because it is located in a hilly area with little farmland, most of the Shanyue people rely on hunting to make a living, so most of them are good at shooting.
But they knew that this was Liu Cong's plan.
Twenty well-dressed archers soon arrived at the schoolyard. A hundred paces away, twenty arrow targets were erected.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy it!"
Lingling County is a large county, in Jingzhou except for Nanyang, it is the most populous Lingling, with more than one million people, plus most of the area borders on ethnic minorities, because there are nearly 3,000 soldiers in the county, it is not difficult to select some good shooters from 3,000 people.
I saw the first batch of twenty people lined up, and with an order, they bent their bows and arrows one by one.
The first one, hit the bull's-eye! The second one, hit the bull's-eye!
…… Nineteen in a row, all of them hit the bull's-eye. Liu Cong looked at Liu Du proudly, what he wanted was this effect, and he had to let these Shanyue people know that shouting that the army was not vegetarian. If you really have to be ruthless, it will be easier to exterminate the mountain.
Jiang Wan and the others were just concentrating on reading before, so naturally they hadn't seen this meeting, this is the legendary 100-step Yang, right?
The faces of those Shanyue leaders are getting more and more ugly! This big man's army is really capable.
Twentieth, hey, why are your hands shaking?
Whoosh, barely shot on target! Liu Cong's face sank. The leader of the Yamagoe over there finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Come on, pull this negligent bastard down and cut it down!" Next to him, Liu Du didn't know when he became very murderous!
Yes? Everyone was shocked, it was a performance, a mistake, this is a cut? Shanyue people still thought that Liu Du was talking about it.
"Lord Liu, it's not easy to train an archer, it's better to ......" Huang Zhong looked at Liu Cong and wanted Liu Cong to come forward to intercede.
"Training does not sweat, but blood will be shed in wartime, his archery skills are so poor, it is inevitable that he will die on the battlefield in the future, it is better to execute now, so as to teach others a lesson. You all have to remember! After you go back, you should train the soldiers as strictly as Lord Liu! Liu Cong completely ignored Huang Zhong.
"It's a disappointment, hurry up and pull it down and cut it! Guys, you have to continue the competition, and then arrange a second one! Liu Du smiled at Liu Cong knowingly.
Wow! Not far away, the cries of the archer who missed the bull's-eye could be heard. A few curious people ran to the edge of the school yard until they saw their heads on the ground, and then they hurried back to report to the others.
The others were all shocked when they heard this, they didn't expect that the always gentle Taishou Lord was so strict in his military training, so he and the others were so presumptuous before, if he was a little unhappy, wouldn't they all be clicked?
"Come on, the first competition, horse war! From brother, please! ”
