Chapter 153: Gan Ning (3)

The Pioneer Army, which suddenly rushed out of the reeds, looked very embarrassed, and some of the horses were originally white, but after rushing out of the reeds, they turned brown. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Not to mention the war horse, even the armor has changed to that color, it's really embarrassing, and even the momentum of the cavalry is gone, just like a group of chickens in the soup.

In fact, these people are not to blame, even Zhao Yun, who has the best riding skills in the cavalry, is now just as embarrassed, not to mention the white horse under his crotch, even the white robe and silver armor on his body are stained with many stains, not to mention other people. After all, it is very difficult for the cavalry to catch up with a fleet, it is okay for short distances, and it is almost impossible to do it for long distances...

Even if people don't need to rest, warhorses also need to rest. The kind of war horse that has been galloping at the fastest speed, without even resting, and traveling more than a thousand miles a day, usually only exists in mythological stories. In the past few days, whether it is Yan Shao on the river, or Sun Guan and Zhao Yun on the shore, they are actually not very comfortable. Yan Shao and his entourage don't need to mention much, almost all of them are northerners, and the boats at this time are not very stable on the river, and the slightest wave will become very bumpy, and they can't be comfortable if they want to, and in the end, they even made the armor guards on the ship have to come up with a rotation system―――――― it is also strange to say, these armor soldiers are soft on the ship, and ten percent of their strength can not be exerted three percent, but they are alive and well on the shore.

As for Sun Guan, Zhao Yun and others on the shore, they were also embarrassed. Every day, just to catch up with Yan Shao and them, I don't know how much effort is spent. Moreover, the land is not as good as the river, the ups and downs are okay, and sometimes there are even mountains and forests in front of them, forcing Zhao Yun and them to take a detour.

Fortunately, this is not a place like a mountain stream, otherwise Zhao Yun and they may not be able to catch up. But along the way, Zhao Yun and the others were still sleepy, and even the armor on their bodies was dirty, obviously they didn't even have time to take care of it.

But even so, in the face of these elites of the Beihai soldiers, Gan Ning still didn't dare to act rashly.

There were more than 1,000 soldiers and horses on the shore, more than 1,000 bows, and a rain of arrows, and the sons behind him were afraid that they would suffer heavy casualties. If you really do it, the gains will outweigh the losses.

He can also rush over so directly, if the hand-to-hand combat is hand-to-hand, the cavalry on the shore may not dare to make a move, so as not to accidentally injure their own people―――――― bow and arrow are not long-eyed, there are few archery skills like Zhao Yun in these years, and now it's okay, when the ship gets closer, who knows who the arrow will fall on...

But...

The Yangtze River is vast, otherwise it would not be possible to support a battle of Chibi.

But as China's most famous body of water, it is not only spectacular, but also some not-so-grandiose passages. It's like the water area where Yan Shao and they are staying now is about two or three hundred meters wide. Their ships were relatively close to the shore again, and by the time these water thieves approached, Yan Shao and they were probably already approaching the shore.

Moreover, Huang Zhong's archery skills are amazing, I believe that the martial arts will not be too bad, and there are such armor guards on the ship, even if Gan Ning and them can rush up, they may not be able to stop Yan Shao and them from docking.

If they really have to wait until the other side docks, their trip will be a toss in vain...

And Huang Zhong didn't say it, that Zhao Zilong was also amazing, and the scene of shooting down the sail rope before almost made him dumbfounded, almost thinking it was a miracle. He asked himself that he had been wandering on the Yangtze River for a long time, but he had never seen archery skills as amazing as Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun.

"There are such fierce generals under his command, no wonder this Yan Shao can shock Qingzhou..."Looking at Yan Shao on the bow of the ship opposite, Gan Ning couldn't help but say with some emotion.

For now, the best thing to do is to evacuate as soon as possible, so as not to really get trapped. But he withdrew before he could do anything, wouldn't Gan Ning's great name that he had managed to break out of be discredited...

After thinking about it, Gan Ning is a bit of a dilemma...

It was at this time that Yan Shao's proposal came...

―――――――――― Dividing Line――――――――――

"A gamble? What do you mean? Raising his eyebrows, Gan Ning looked very interested.

As a representative of the rangers, Gan Ning was not a very peaceful person, otherwise he would not have gathered so many sons and daughters in Ba County and caused trouble everywhere. Now that he heard that Yan Shao was going to gamble, he suddenly became a little interested.

"It's very simple..."Yan Shao also smiled, ignored the obstruction of the armor soldier beside him, and stood at the bow of the boat and raised his voice to Gan Ning. If I win, you and your sons will be under my account and serve me..."

Obviously, with the idea of a spoonful of stew, if he can recruit all the Jinfan thieves under his account, he will not have to worry about the problem of the water army in the future.

"Then what if you lose...", showing a somewhat hideous smile, Gan Ning sneered. Don't say it's your possessions or anything like that, those are out of sight. ”

"Simple...," Yan Shao grinned. If you win, the armor and blades of those horses and knights will all be yours! ”

As soon as these words fell, they immediately attracted a lot of commotion, and the water thieves behind Gan Ning showed greed in their eyes, and even Gan Ning himself was shocked, obviously frightened by Yan Shao's bet.

War horses are very scarce resources in this era, not to mention the matching armor and blades, if these are all added together, even if a rich state like Jingzhou wants to take it out, I am afraid that it will be distressed for a while. What's more, almost all of the war horses ridden by the Dare First Army were good horses selected from the war horses captured by the Wuhuan people, and their value was doubled. Such a large number of things, I am afraid that an ordinary county may not be able to take it out.

It can be said that Yan Shao took out these things as a bet, and in the eyes of others, he definitely did not mean to look down on Gan Ning, but attached great importance to the performance of the other party.

"Lord!" Hearing Yan Shao's words, Huang Zhong was anxious.

It's not that he doesn't have confidence in his martial arts, it's that the stakes are too heavy this time, and he can't help but feel a lot of pressure.

"Alas, Han Sheng, don't worry, I have a lot of confidence in you..."Stopping what Huang Zhong wanted to say next, Yan Shao gave him a relieved smile. Then he looked at Gan Ning on the other side. "What, I don't know if Xingba dares to make this bet?"

In fact, he originally planned to gamble on his own head, first, as a modern person, he does not have the habit of gambling on people with objects, and in his habit of doing so, it is inevitable that he has a feeling of not very respectful of people. Second, he can also highlight his trust in Huang Zhong.

Just thought about it a little, it was too exaggerated to do this, and I am afraid that the psychological pressure on Huang Zhong is not ordinarily small, what if he really gets rid of it? It's certain that you will be on the account, but you can't follow Boss Cao's example to cut your hair and act as the head, right? In that case, Gan Ning must not be trying to solicit.

Yan Shao didn't bring any treasures that could be equivalent to Gan Ning's value, and the only thing that could be used to make a bet in the end seemed to be the only horse and equipment of the cavalry under his command―――――― anyway, he was very confident in Huang Zhong, on the surface, he was using the equipment of the cavalry to gamble on Gan Ning, in fact, if Gan Ning came, the eight hundred brocade sail thieves under his command would definitely follow him, which was equivalent to earning a naval army, not to mention the commander, and also giving away the backbone of the naval army that could form a naval army, which was definitely a sure deal.

If at the beginning, Gan Ning was still very interested in this gambling game, but now he is a little hesitant.

As mentioned earlier, Yan Shao took out so many things as a bet, Gan Ning didn't feel that he was being looked down upon at all, but he was a little weak at all.

"Isn't that Huang Zhong's martial arts really so powerful, so that this person has such confidence?"

Thinking about this Huang Zhong's archery skills are so amazing, it seems unlikely to say that his martial arts are very poor.

However, looking back at his son, Gan Ning smiled bitterly.

Even the water thieves under his tent all looked greedy, looking at the armor and blades on the horses and horse sergeants on the shore. These things may not be able to get even a county's annual income, if they get their hands on them, doesn't it mean that they can lie at home and eat and wait for death for the rest of their lives?

"Boss, let's do it!"

Before Gan Ning could even say anything, there were already water thieves shouting behind him.

"yes, Chief, do it, this guy is definitely not your opponent!"

"Boss, this guy must be lying to you and him!"

All of a sudden, the crowd was raging, and the water thieves on the ships were all noisy.

Of course, there are also some different opinions, I think it is better to accept it when it is good, and it is better to withdraw it directly, but I am still buried by these opinions.

It's not that these water thieves haven't considered the possibility that Gan Ning will fail, but they are very clear about Gan Ning's martial arts, there are almost no opponents on the Yangtze River, and there is only one water thief leader named Zhou Tai who can barely compete with Gan Ning, but he is far from Gan Ning's opponent. In addition, this Huang Zhong was not a very famous person in the past, so they knew that he was a relatively famous shooter, and they still had a lot of confidence in Gan Ning.

Of course, this is not all the reason why they will persuade Gan Ning to take the gamble, the most important thing is...

Even if you lose, what's the matter?

That's right, that's it...

―――――――――― Dividing Line――――――――――

Maybe in Gan Ning's opinion, it must be bad to lose, which means that he will be subordinated to a county guard. Especially when this county guard first met, he was still disrespectful. But for the water thieves under his command, this is not necessarily a bad thing.

Gan Ning himself can't look down on working under the tent of a county guard, but the water thieves under his command are different, they don't have any ambitions, don't they all do the same wherever they do?

What's more, Yan Shao is also a hero in the world, even they have heard of Yan Shao's reputation, if this is served under Yan Shao's account, it will be more or less a way out, isn't it?

It's a good bet for these thieves, so it's no wonder they're so enthusiastic...

Originally, Gan Ning still had a little retreat, but when he was made by his sons and daughters like this, there was really no way to retreat. Glancing at Huang Zhong, who was sturdy but somewhat mediocre on the other side, Gan Ning gritted his teeth and nodded. "Okay, I'll take this bet..."

But he is planning to bet that Huang Zhong's archery skills on the other side are amazing, but his martial arts may not be good, otherwise how could such a character become famous until now?

As for Huang Zhong, he hugged his fist at Yan Shao, since the gamble has been decided, it is not easy for him to persuade Yan Shao anymore, the only thing to do now is to help Yan Shao win this gamble...

Since it's going to be a gamble, you have to make a place first.

Yan Shao and they only had three ships in total, and each of them was full of people, but it was unlikely that a boat would be freed up for a duel. In the end, only one boat could be vacated by Gan Ning's side, and the water thieves on the ship were transferred to other ships.

By the time the ship was vacated, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning were already standing on the ship that was not too small.

Feeling the bumps under his feet, Gan Ning had some confidence in his heart.

Water war, this is also one of the reasons why Gan Ning will agree to the gamble, no matter how strong Huang Zhong's martial arts are, he has been adrift on the Yangtze River all these years, but he is very confident in himself, at least, he definitely does not believe that he will lose...

"Bajun Ganning Ganxingba, please!" Flicked the bell on his body with his hand, and Gan Ning raised the ring knife in his hand.

"Nanyang Huang Zhong Huang Hansheng!" Huang Zhong also arched his hand and said to Gan Ning.

Perhaps knowing that Huang Zhong was going to duel with the person opposite, Huang Xu, who was recuperating in the cabin, struggled out of it despite the obstacles. Hua Tuo sighed for a while, and then stopped dissuading. After all, his biological father is desperate outside, how can his biological son sit in the cabin?

Even Hua Tuo understands such a little truth...

As if sensing Huang Xu's gaze, Huang Zhong turned his head and nodded slightly towards Huang Xu, and then refocused his gaze on Gan Ning.

There was no need for a referee, the two confronted each other for a while, and their bodies started almost at the same time, slashing the ring knife in their hands at each other. Na Gan Ning's knife was swift, and almost slashed at the critical position, which can be said to be extremely ruthless. If this is replaced by a person with slightly inferior martial arts, I am afraid that it will not be long before he will be killed.

However, although Huang Zhong opposite him was not as fast as Gan Ning's attack, he took over Gan Ning's knife momentum without falling, and from time to time he would take advantage of the gap to counterattack, at least on the scene, you and me, evenly matched...

Coupled with the undulating terrain on the deck, the duel between the two is even better than the cavalry battle... (To be continued.) )
