"I can't say so much, although we are tough in battle, but in terms of martial arts alone, those soldiers who have been selected to enlist in the army are not weak, compared to the two, the result is really unknown!"

Lin Xiu alerted a few people, Rao is Liu Pan and others said with a smile: "The general is so worried, although we are from the village and Han people, but we have been trained in the northern Xinjiang battle, and we all bear the name of the man in the northern Xinjiang and the bloody man, so even if we fight for this life, we can't lose to those delicate soldiers who have never even been on the battlefield!" ”

As he spoke, there was a sound of two drums outside the waiting courtyard, Lin Xiu immediately put on armor and a saber, holding a six-foot double-edged gun, and when he was ready, he took the four of them to the martial arts arena quickly, but in front of the courtyard, he met the person who made him hate to the root of his teeth.

"Dare to ask who General Lin is?"

A courtier from the dark blue-robed Mansion and the Yaguan Mansion stood by the entrance road, listening to the nonsense that he asked knowingly, Lin Xiu frowned and responded: "The lord is above, the last general is Lin Zhongyi, I don't know what the matter is with the adult?" ”

"You are Lin Zhongyi!"

Such an abrupt and suspicious tone made the listener dissatisfied, but look at the dark blue-robed courtier's laughter: "This official Chen Dingshuo, Chang Cheng, the capital of the capital government, admires the prestige of the general, so I came here to say a word, if there is any disturbance, please forgive me!" ”

Hearing Chen Dingshuo's three words, Lin Xiu's eyebrows twitched instantly, and for a moment, he almost raised his gun and stabbed it, slaughtering this damn old beast, but the forbidden place of the palace, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, he could only look like Jingbo Lake, and whispered in a deep voice: "It turned out to be Lord Chang Cheng, the last general... Long admiration! ”

"Haha!" Chen Dingshuo laughed loudly: "The general has been looking up for a long time? This can not be helped, I want the general to be only twenty years old, so he galloped thousands of miles on the battlefield in northern Xinjiang, and now he has successively defeated the Nine Gate Governors and Palace Guards, and won the first place in one fell swoop, and even climbed the imperial ladder to meet His Majesty. ”

Sniffing out the sarcasm and ridicule in his words, Lin Xiu mustered up his strength and held back his heart: "My lord, if there is nothing else, it is not too late to talk about these nonsense after the drill, I will enter the hall soon!" ”

"Tsk..."Chen Dingshuo said with a smile: "Don't worry, general, this time there is still half a moment before the sound of the three-way drum, which is enough for the official to finish the rest of his admiration!" ”

"You old man, why are you so talkative!"

Liu Pan and other pro-soldiers were already impatient with the courtiers in front of them, so they spoke disrespectfully, Lin Xiu knew that this person was jealous and dirty, so he scolded his subordinates to avoid extraneous branches, but Chen Dingshuo's smile remained the same: "The fierce generals will be fierce soldiers, and the fierce soldiers will speak fiercely, such a perfect match, a perfect match!" ”

"My lord, the last general will teach his subordinates a lesson when he returns to the camp, my lord's forgiveness!"

"If you don't teach a lesson, if you don't forgive me, this official doesn't care, this official mainly wants to ask the general, is it a loss or a win today?"

"This..."Lin Xiu was unclear for a while, Chen Dingshuo's smile gradually sank, and the greedy and cunning aura suddenly emanated: "Yesterday... The official took the lead in the battle because of the general's dark horse, and he lost 20,000 taels of betting, which really hurt the official's flesh, and today here, the officer wants to ask the general to fight the bottom line, if he can fight again and win, the official will definitely bet on the general! ”

Lin Xiu stared at the old face, the anger in his heart was like a flood river that had burst a dam, but he knew that if he made this move, his head would fall to the ground instantly, so he suppressed his voice and said: "The last general never believes in gambling, so what the adult said, the last general is powerless!" ”

At the end, Lin Xiu said coldly: "My lord, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, gambling is like a change, for the sake of security and stability, it is better to gamble less, otherwise losing money is a small matter, and losing your life is a big matter!" Hearing this, Chen Dingshuo's complexion changed suddenly, and the murderous aura approached Lin Xiu, but Lin Xiu didn't care at all, and left through the road, leaving Chen Dingshuo standing in place like a toad.

"My lord, this kid is too arrogant!"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Xu Mo reprimanded in a low voice, the corners of Chen Dingshuo's eyebrows twitched, and said: "He is only twenty years old and has been a cavalry lieutenant, and he has two or three thousand fierce soldiers under his command, and even Geng Liao can't forcibly restrain him, how can he not be rampant?" It's just..."At this point, Chen Dingshuo's face sank like ice and almost condensed water: "He disturbed the way of the official, which is the biggest mistake in this life, how about Geng Liao?" ”

"Lord Hui, General Geng is ready, and the time is tonight... Place... Hai Kee Merchant & Cargo Company..."

On the martial arts field, compared with yesterday's battle array, today's martial arts struggle of the armor soldiers seems much more deserted, Lin Xiu led Liu Pan and other four pro-soldiers to line up horizontally, on the other side of the median line of the martial arts field, the patrol guard commander Yin Po, Zhu Suifeng, Shi Jin and the other two small colonels confronted it.

The commander raised the flag in the middle and shouted: "Draw lots to form a bow and archery, shoot three arrows horizontally, regardless of the number of people, start!" ”

When this voice fell, Zhu Suifeng, Shi Jin and a small colonel Xu Hu behind Yin Po stepped forward, and Lin Xiu sent Liu Pan and three other personal soldiers. When the two-foot-three-and-a-half-inch feather arrow was placed on the two-stone longbow, the six people and twelve arms plucked the bowstring at the same time, a hundred steps away, but the bullseye beam the size of a bronze mirror was tied off the rope, and it shook from side to side, but when the rapid sound of 'whooshing' hit, the six feather arrows rushed out of the wind.

Immediately, the drum sound 'dong dong' cheered, and when the drum subsided, only two of the six arrows were hit, so that the official inspection was Zhu Suifeng and Liu Pan, and the other four people all flew off the target.

"Yiping, return to the column!"

Lingguan, Liu Pan and Zhu Suifeng got acquainted with each other, and each returned to the team.

"Archery skills, riding and archery fighting, within three breaths, the draw is lost, the winner is in the ranks, and the loser is out!"

When Liu Pan got on the horse, Lin Xiu approached and whispered: "Zhu Suifeng is the deputy general of the imperial guard battalion of the former Liaoyuan Army, and his temperament is stable, don't worry, as long as you can peace, it is enough to lose!" ”

Liu Pan nodded when he heard this, he had already seen the strength of Zhu Suifeng, so he was very careful, as the two of them were ready, the horses galloped up, and the drum sounded again, and the edge of the field, Yin Po frowned and pondered, so that he retreated and whispered to Colonel Xuhu, Colonel Xuhu took advantage of the lack of attention, lifted the armnail of his right arm slightly, and swept away Shi Jin on the side, and saw that Colonel Xuhu's sleeve was a delicate arm crossbow.

"Whoosh..."

The arrow flew like a streamer, Liu Pan couldn't bear it, and took the lead in shooting it, but the wind and horses ran like the wind, almost all in one, Liu Pan's arrows were misplaced, and at this moment of space, the wind pressed the horse to rush in, and directly three arrows came out, so threatening to kill Liu Pan was shocked, not waiting for him to press the horse sideways to dodge, the war horse under the crotch had neighed and fell, due to the great inertia, Liu Pan was thrown out by the war horse.

It's just that the northern Xinjiang fights, Liu Pan has fought several times, so he has some experience in dealing with falling off the horse, with momentum, Liu Pan bowed forward, pulled the bow and drew the arrow to the ground, and when the momentum disappeared, Liu Pan rolled upright, bent the bow and took the arrow, and shot at the wind that was running towards the empty string.
