Hearing this question, Liu Erhu was silent, and only said after a while: "At that time, I followed my sister-in-law and them to the west, and my sister-in-law was waving a big banner, and the enemy army surrounded me in groups. At that time, the team was broken into several sections, and my sister-in-law and I were also separated by the official army. Sister-in-law, they are still waving the banner, so He Dalong and he are all going to the sister-in-law's side, I want to take my brothers to kill again, but I was blocked by the enemy and couldn't kill them. Later, Cao Qiu also killed, and the sister-in-law couldn't stand it, so she turned her head to the north and entered the forest in the north, and then I didn't know. He Dalong and Cao Qiu both went over there, and no one was staring at me, so I continued to go west, and then met a pair of officers and soldiers, and after a period of slashing, my brother and I rushed out with someone. They are still chasing after them. I panicked into a ravine, ran for a while, and finally got rid of them. I remembered what the king had ordered before the breakout, and after letting us stand out, we went to Shangluo Mountain, and then we came to Shangluo Mountain, and on the way I met some brothers who had been scattered. So I took them into the mountains. Later, I didn't find out where the king was in the mountains, so I temporarily built a village on the side of Heihu Mountain and stayed there. Then Brother Zhangqi came over. ”

Huang Zide listened, was a little disappointed, sighed and said, "It's a pity that there is still no news from the old camp." ”

Liu Erhu listened to it and said: "King, sister-in-law Ji people have their own natural appearance, and they will definitely be fine." ”

Xuan Yi also said: "Owner of the village, at this time, there is no news, in fact, it is the biggest good news." Do you think, if the court really caught someone, wouldn't it have announced it to the world long ago to deter others? Since there is no such news, the lady and General Shang must not have fallen into the hands of the imperial court. ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Liu Erhu also hurriedly said, "What the Taoist chief said is so reasonable!" That's definitely it. ”

Huang Zide nodded and said: "I also know this is the truth, but it's been so long, but there is no news at all, which is really worrying." ”

Xuan Yi knew that none of them had an accident, and there were still a lot of troops in their hands, and if there were no major changes in history after rebirth, then eight or nine days later, their people would take the initiative to come to the door. So he said: "Poor Dao thinks that this is probably because there are still a lot of people around Madame and General Shang, and now although they have broken through, they can't transfer to Shangluo Mountain for a while." However, Mrs. must have also sent people to Shangluo Mountain to find the owner of the village, and watch the stars at night, it is estimated that there will be more than ten days at most, and they may find the door. ”

Huang Zide listened and said with a smile: "Thank you Dao Chang Jiyan." Today is a good day for the two tiger brothers to come back, let's not talk about these first, drink, drink! ”

Liu Erhu also picked up the wine bowl and said, "Yes, yes, yes, drink, drink." ”

……

Although he drank a little too much last night, Liu Erhu still got up early in the morning. He washed his face casually, then took his goose knife and went out. When he came over yesterday, he passed by a flat empty field, although he didn't ask specifically, but with experience, Liu Erhu also knew that it must be a martial arts arena used to practice martial arts. So as is customary, he came here early in the morning.

When I arrived at the martial arts arena, I saw that there were already a few people there. Liu Jiexuan was practicing stone locks there shirtless, and bursts of white qi were rising from his full muscles: Huang Zide had also arrived at the martial arts arena, waving a spear whirring; There are also Xuanyi Daoists who are also practicing swordsmanship on the side.

Liu Jiexuan, as well as Huang Zide's kung fu, Liu Erhu has seen a lot, but this Xuanyi Taoist, he is not very familiar with it, and when he saw that he was practicing swordsmanship, he couldn't help but take a closer look.

After only a few glances, Liu Erhu was taken aback: Xuan Yi's swordsmanship looked exceptionally simple, there were almost no too complicated tricks, and the footwork was mainly based on straight forward and straight retreat, but the speed of the sword was terrifyingly fast. Liu Erhu thought about it for a while, and felt that if he only held a Yanling knife, he would probably not be able to beat this Taoist priest, and if he didn't have much understanding of his swordsmanship in advance, he was afraid that he would be stabbed with a sword as soon as he made his move. However, after Xuan Yi stabbed a few times, he suddenly stopped, opened his mouth, and gasped for air.

"I see." Liu Erhu suddenly remembered some legends he had heard on the rivers and lakes back then.

"It seems that this Xuanyi Dao Master's swordsmanship belongs to the kind of explosion technique that particularly consumes physical strength, I said, how can this sword be so fast. If you can dodge the first few hits, you will be able to deal with it later. Liu Erhu thought so, but he also understood that it was not easy to do this.

At this time, Huang Zide had already finished dancing all the way to marksmanship, and when he saw Liu Erhu coming, he said: "Brother Erhu, I drank so much last night, I thought you wouldn't be able to get up today." Come on, come and practice with me. ”

Liu Erhu smiled and said: "I only had a little more last night...... then walked over, took off the Yanling knife on his waist, put it aside, and then went to the weapon rack next to him and took a spear for practice (the head of this spear is actually a cloth bag wrapped in lime), shook it in his hand, tried the feel, and then carried the gun, strode in front of Huang Zide, stood with his feet one after the other, stretched the spear forward, and said in a starting gesture: "Village master, be careful." ”

Huang Zide also put on a posture, and pointed the tip of the gun at Liu Erhu obliquely and said, "Let the horse come over!" ”

Liu Erhu shook the spear in his hand, and the red tassel on the head of the spear suddenly opened, like an aggressive rooster suddenly opening the feathers on its neck. Then he took a half step forward with his right foot, and the spear in his hand suddenly stabbed towards Huang Zide's chest like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter.

Huang Zide shouted: "Okay!" At the same time, his left foot took half a step back, and the spear in his hand swung diagonally downward, and the barrel of the gun hit the side of the spear that Liu Erhu stabbed straight over, pushing Liu Erhu's gun aside. Then his left foot stepped forward half a step, and the spear in his hand stabbed towards Liu Erhu. Liu Erhu's spear was pushed to the side, and he couldn't take it back for a while, but he didn't panic, he used his two feet to make a sharp jump backwards, and he jumped more than eight feet away, but he just dodged Huang Zide's shot.

"Good!" Huang Zide shouted hello again, but he didn't chase after him, he just turned sideways and flattened the gun, and pointed the tip of the gun at Liu Erhu and said, "Brother Erhu, come again, come again!" ”

At this time, several other people also stopped and gathered around to watch the two practice. Liu Jiexuan clasped his hands in front of his chest and smiled at Xuanyi: "Erhu is still so reckless, it all relies on his good leg strength and jumps far, otherwise, the shot of the owner of the village just now will be pierced in his thigh." ”

Before Xuan Yi could answer, he heard He Zhangqi on the side also follow: "So he can also fight on foot, if he gets on the horse, there is nowhere to jump, and then he meets an expert with a gun like Cao Qiu......" Speaking of this, He Zhangqi shook his head.

"Ma Zhan met Cao Qiu? Your old He is enough to choke, and I am enough to choke. Liu Jiexuan also laughed, "But in the future, even if it is a foot battle, the two tigers' set may not work." ”

"How?" He Zhangqi asked.

"We're going to have to fight each other in the future." Liu Jiexuan said, "In the battle formation, everyone has their own position, and they must stand in their own position, the brave cannot rush forward, the cowardly cannot retreat alone, and the formation cannot be messed up." The second tiger jumped several steps away like this, and he didn't need to be beaten by others, so he led the queue crookedly. ”

When He Zhangqi heard this, he laughed, and then stopped laughing and said, "Lao Liu, that formation is really powerful?" ”

Liu Jiexuan said: "That's natural, but it's only been practiced for half a day, and you have to wait for more than ten days before you can see this formation." Although Liu Jiexuan was quite skeptical about the effect of the Mandarin Duck Array at the beginning, after studying it all day, Liu Jiexuan determined that this formation would definitely work with his own experience.

"Okay, just wait for a few days to see and see." He Zhangqi smiled, "But I'm afraid that the formation is only for elite veterans, right?" ”

Liu Jiexuan nodded and said with a smile: "Indeed, only the elite can use this formation. Therefore, there are many teams that do not use this formation. However, if Erhu still plays like this, he will not be a pioneer officer in his life. ”

In Liu Jiexuan's opinion, there is still an obvious problem with this formation, that is, the requirements for soldiers are too high, but Liu Jiexuan feels that this is not a big problem. Judging from his experience, in the battle of Tongguan not long ago, if he had such an elite army that could skillfully use the Mandarin Duck Formation, even if there were only one or two thousand people, it would be enough to tear apart the front of the official army, and then put other teams into this gap, and immediately collapse the official army on the opposite side, even if the army in Sun Baigu's hands was much more than his own side.

"In fact, when the official army fights, there are not many people who can really rush to the front. He Dalong has about 200 family members who dare to work hard, Cao Qiu is a little more, but at most there are about 400 family members. As long as we have one or two thousand elites, it will be enough to defeat them. The rest of the people, when they saw them collapse, naturally lost their courage, and only ran away. That's what Liu Jiexuan said to Xuan Yi at that time. Of course, Xuan Yi Daoist did not agree with this, he still hoped that the whole army should reach such a level, because he always felt that if there was only such a little elite, he was afraid that it would not be enough to fight against the Tartars outside the Guan.

Huang Zide agreed with Xuan Yi's vigilance against the Tartars, but in terms of specific methods, Huang Zide believed that after seizing the Central Plains, the selection of elite troops could also ensure that there were sufficient numbers of troops to deal with those Tartars.

At this time, Huang Zide had already fought with Liu Erhu for a few more rounds, and almost all of these rounds were Liu Erhu who took the initiative to attack, and then was forced back by Huang Zide's shot in the middle with an attack. After fighting for a while, Huang Zide forced Liu Erhu back with another shot, and then laughed and said: "Erhu, yes, there is progress!" Not bad! It's just still a little rough. ”
