Chapter 098: Martial Arts
Chen Qun worked hard to get this million acres of land, and first reclaimed all the five county towns around Shaomu Mountain: Xincheng, Liangxian, Yangcheng, Mixian, and Wushi's wild land close to Shaomu Mountain, and reclaimed a total of about 100,000 mu of land.
Chen Qun then rented land from large households and villagers around Shaomu Mountain for five years.
Because of the continuous natural and man-made disasters over the years, many villages are empty, so Chen Qun wants to rent land for five years, and all the remaining old people in the village are rented to Chen Qun, and one mu of land is twenty yuan a year, a total of one hundred yuan. Chen Qun spent 9,000 gold to rent a total of 900,000 acres of land around Shaomu Mountain.
The land was leased with the help of Zhao Yun, and a five-year contract was signed with the village elders of each village.
As long as the land is rented, Xu Shu will send people to cultivate it in time, and finally completed the cultivation of one million acres of land before winter, which mainly depends on the sufficient manpower of the mountain city.
During the Chinese New Year in the third year of Zhongping, all the states and counties handed back the profits for December, totaling 4,300 gold. The profits received by Chen Qun from restaurants around the country have been rising month by month, and in November and December alone, it has offset the previous cost of buying land, and Chen Qun's cash has reached 13,000 gold.
Approaching the end of the year, Zhu Jun took Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, Huangfu Song took Zhang He, Gao Lan, Yan Liang and Wen Chou to Shaomu Mountain to celebrate the New Year, Zhao Yun of course also came back for the New Year, and Dian Wei and his wife also returned. For a time, the top and bottom of Shaomuro Mountain were in a state of joy and joy.
The reason why Zhu Jun and Huang Fusong did this was after careful deliberation. Both of them recognized the ability of the brothers introduced by Chen Qun, but the two hoped that they would be able to follow Chen Qun in the future, and Hanoi County and Wei County were already peaceful, so the two brought everyone to the mountain city to celebrate the New Year.
Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou had already known each other when they exterminated Zhang Niujiao, so the six of them were very familiar with each other and admired each other's abilities. Moreover, none of the six of them had ever been to Shaomu Mountain before, but they heard that Chen Qunjian's Shaomu Mountain City was very magical and beautiful.
After Gao Shun and the other six people came to Shaomuro Mountain City, they were instantly shocked by Shaomuro Mountain City, not only the location of the mountain city, but also the structure of the mountain city, and the magical spring water.
After Chen Zhi and Pang De took Gao Shun and other six people to travel around the mountain city, they visited Chen Qun together, while Dian Wei was accompanied by his two wives Hua Da and Hua Qi to visit the mountain city, and after the game, they also followed Chen Zhi and others to meet Chen Qun.
Chen Qun said happily after seeing everyone: "Brothers, your residence has been arranged, tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, I will hold a banquet to entertain all brothers in the evening, I hope you brothers will go to the banquet on time after sunset tonight." All the brothers are good players, and now everyone has nothing to do with each other in the martial arts arena, learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses in order to make greater progress. ”
"Hahaha......" Everyone laughed when they heard this, because everyone thought the same thing about each other.
Soon, everyone came to the martial arts arena together, and the competition arena was surrounded by Chen Jiawei and Danyang Wei who came to watch, as well as the guards of Shaomu Mountain, and the subordinates brought by everyone. Everyone had faith in their respective leaders.
Chen Qun also joined in the fun with Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong, and Li Bing'er and Cai Yan also followed. Cai Yan has been here since he came to Shaomu Mountain City, and rarely goes back to Luoyang, even if he goes back, he returns in a circle. The relationship with Li Bing'er is very good.
The first competition is archery.
Chen Zhi and Pang De played first as the guards of Shaomu Mountain City, Chen Zhi's archery skills have won continuous applause, and Pang De's archery skills surprised everyone, and even Huang Zhong couldn't help nodding and praised: "Ling Ming's archery skills are very high, and the difference is only multiple arrow salvos." ”
Chen Qun smiled and said, "I forgot Ling Mingshan's ability to shoot!" Ling Ming's archery skills are indeed the top level in the world, but they are just a little worse than Master Huang. ”
After Chen Zhi and Pang De finished showing, the next thing was Dian Wei's display, but Dian Wei stepped forward directly and said frankly: "Brothers, I'm sorry!" I'm good at fighting alone, I can't shoot arrows, and my archery skills are very poor, so I don't show them. ”
"Hahaha......" The onlookers laughed when they heard this.
Chen Qun hurriedly said loudly: "Brothers, don't laugh, Dian Wei's combat power is definitely the top in the world, but he is not good at archery, everyone will know it in a while." ”
After Dian Wei stepped down, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao played. The archery skills of the two were obviously not as good as Pound's, but they still won the applause of the onlookers.
followed by the four brothers Zhang He, and the archery skills of the four were also more clever than Zhang He, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Gao Ran were all average.
Finally, the onlookers shouted in unison: "General Hansheng, come one!" ”
Huang Zhong walked out directly when he heard this, took the bow and arrow, shook it and smiled slightly, and then directly took out five arrows, and shot through the bullseye of five arrow targets at once under the stunned eyes of everyone.
"Good! Good! Good! ......" Everyone on the lookers couldn't help but cheer, and even Dian Wei and others couldn't help but applaud.
"The head of the house, come one! The head of the house has one! ......" Then, everyone asked Chen Qun to show it in unison.
Chen Qun smiled slightly and stood up, and then took out three arrows and put them on, but only the bullseye directly opposite him hit the bull's-eye, although the left and right arrow targets were shot, but the accuracy was not high, but it still caused the brothers to cheer in unison. Everyone feels that Chen Qun is very good at archery.
Chen Qun said loudly after everyone shouted: "Next is the martial arts show, brothers should watch carefully, don't miss this best learning opportunity!" ”
Chen Zhi was the first to show his martial arts, Chen Zhi was the commander of the Danyang Wei of the Shaomu Mountain City, although his subordinates knew that Chen Zhi's combat power was not low, but after all, no one had seen Chen Zhi show his true martial arts.
After Chen Zhi came on the field, he first hugged his fist around and saluted, and then shouted, drew his sword and began to dance, Chen Zhi danced extremely fast, and his eyesight was not good, and he only saw a sword light flashing, and he couldn't see where Chen Zhi was at all. Moreover, Chen Zhi's light skills are excellent, and he can jump ten zhang high at will, causing all the Danyang guards to shout in unison: "Commander Chen is mighty!" Commander Chen is mighty! ……”
After Chen finished the martial arts, he hugged his fists and saluted the people around him, not panting and not beating his heart, which shows that his skills are extremely deep.
"Good!" Everyone applauded loudly again, and they were all praising Chen Zhi's superior light skills.
Then Pound came on the field, and Pound came on the field with a big knife, showing off the kung fu of standing on the ground. As soon as Pang De's knife technique came out, everyone was amazed, especially Zhang Liao, Yan Liang and other people who were good at kung fu immediately, and they were even more stunned, and everyone was amazed in their hearts that Pang De's knife skills were good.
After Pound was off, it was Dian Wei's turn to play. Dian Wei had already made ample preparations off the field at this time. When he came up, he carried a double halberd directly, and there was a circle of twelve halberds inserted into his waist.
Dian Wei asked people to erect logs behind the arrow target, and then began to show their martial arts. Dian Wei showed his double halberd method, and his heavy strength shocked everyone, especially during the wielding of the double halberd, Dian Wei also kept throwing a small halberd, which broke through the bull's-eye one by one and inserted it into the log behind it, and the force frightened the people behind the arrow target to keep retreating.
Dian Wei's force was so strong that everyone in shock forgot to cheer, and it wasn't until he finished his performance that crazy cheers erupted around him.
Chen Qun said loudly after Dian Wei got off the field: "Brothers have also seen that the power of the Dian Wei brothers' halberds is no worse than archery, so brothers who are not good at archery can ask the Dian Wei brothers for advice on the playing style of the flying halberd, of course, it can also be flying knives, flying swords, etc." Well, next is a show of force by General Gao Shun. ”
Chen Qun's words caused everyone to discuss in a whisper, and everyone thought that this matter was feasible, after all, one more ability would have one more possibility of survival on the battlefield.
After Gao Shun's performance, it was Zhang Liao, followed by Zhang He, Gao Lan, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, because there were Chen Zhi's light skills, Pang De's saber, and Dian Wei's flying halberd in front, it seemed that Gao Shun's martial arts of the six people were a bit decent, but after all, everyone's martial arts were very high, and they all attracted the cheers of the brothers watching around.
The last to play was Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun was carrying a spear up, after Zhao Yun came on the field, it instantly attracted everyone's sideways glances, because Zhao Yun's light skills are comparable to Chen Dao, his strength is comparable to Dian Wei, and his martial arts are not inferior to everyone who played before.
And Zhao Yun even showed two completely different forces of infantry combat marksmanship and cavalry marksmanship, which attracted everyone to applaud. Everyone felt in private that Chen Qun's two masters were very unusual.
After the battle began, Gao Shun took the lead in asking to fight against Chen Zhi, because Gao Shun was an infantry general, and Chen Zhi was also an infantry general, so Gao Shun asked to fight against Chen Zhi.
Chen Qun got up and said with a smile: "Brothers, since it is a battle, it is better to have more people, everyone has seen more battles in two and two, it is better to fight in three or three, everyone is fighting separately, what do you think, brothers?" ”
"Good! Good! Good! The crowd cheered in unison.
The reason why Chen Qun proposed the three-three battle was because he was worried that the two people in the battle would hurt each other if they couldn't hold back, but the three-three battle did not have this problem, and the third person could rescue the person in a passive position at any time.
So Wen Chou went out to fight and stood with Chen Zhi and Gao Shun. Sure enough, as Chen Qun thought, the three-three battle was less dangerous but more fun.
Zhang Liao, Pang De, and Zhang He who played next, all three of them played the same way, all of them were based on moves, supplemented by strength, and the ornamentation was greatly increased, which attracted the cheers of the brothers watching around.
After Zhang Liao and the other three finished the battle, Dian Wei went directly to the field and said loudly: "Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, the two eldest brothers, the younger brother wants to fight with you!" ”
"Good!" Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong responded in unison when they heard this, and then jumped directly into the field. Everyone never thought that Huang Zhong's light skills would be as clever as Zhao Yun.
After seeing the three people facing each other in the field, everyone on the spot estimated the playing style of the three in their hearts, and almost everyone thought that Huang Zhong would take the light route, but what surprised everyone was that after the three of them started to fight, they all took the line of force.
Huang Zhong held a double sword, Zhao Yun held a double sword, Dian Wei still held his double halberd, and none of the three of them took a trick, and they all fought hard.
The sound of "knock ......" kept coming, and although everyone didn't play, they could clearly feel how powerful the sword and halberd struck each other, and how powerful the halberd struck each other.
The sound of boulders breaking in the competition field paved with boulders kept coming, and every step taken by Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, and Dian Wei made clear footprints, and everyone was shocked to cover their mouths.
"Cousin, I didn't expect the two masters to be so powerful! It's amazing! I won't express my surprise anymore! Li Bing'er covered her mouth and said with wide eyes.
Because the confrontation speed of Huang Zhong and the three of them is not fast, everyone can see it clearly.
Chen Qun smiled when he heard this: "Hahaha...... brothers have their own strengths, each of them is very powerful, and you will slowly understand their abilities." ”
Chen Qun was probably the only one in the field who didn't cover his mouth, Chen Qun looked at Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and Dian Wei and said loudly after a hundred moves: "Two masters, Brother Dian, you all stop!" ”
When Zhao Yun heard this, he and Huang Zhong jumped out of the battle circle together, and Dian Wei also put away his halberds and hugged his fists and said, "Admire!" Dian has never admired others in terms of strength, and the two eldest brothers let Dian Wei see that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky, thank you for the two big brothers. ”
Zhao Yun hugged his fists and said: "Brother Dian Wei, I did my best to deal with your double halberd, and my strength is not as great as yours." ”
Huang Zhong clasped his fists and smiled: "Don't be humble anymore!" Fortunately, we're all on our own, and I really don't want to be an enemy of either of you. ”
"Hahaha......" Dian Wei and Zhao Yun laughed together when they heard this.
Chen Qun came to the middle of the three and said loudly: "Brothers, it is really not easy for us to come together!" If we want to go far, we must join hands with each other to tide over the difficulties, each of us is good at different skills, we only give full play to their respective strengths, in order to truly successfully deal with the various crises that may occur in the future!
This is the end of today's competition, I wish all brothers can have some understanding! It's not early now, everyone goes back and rests for a while to prepare for dinner, the restaurant has prepared a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve dinner for everyone, and everyone has dinner together! Happy New Year to all brothers! ”
"Thank you, master!" Everyone clasped their fists in reply, and then everyone dispersed.
Chen Qun took Li Bing'er and Cai Yan's two daughters, accompanied by everyone, to the restaurant together, everyone chatted in the restaurant for a while, and then ordered someone to serve the meal, and then everyone ate together.
When Shaomu Mountain was immersed in the festive atmosphere of the New Year, in a large mansion in Luoyang City, Cao Cao, Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai, Xiahoudun, Xiahou Yuan, Xu Chu, Li Dian, Le Jin and others gathered around a table and looked at a map on the table.
Cao Cao said in a deep voice after everyone arrived: "Everyone, this is the time when the enemy is most relaxed, now that it is dark, we will kill all of each enemy just after the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, now everyone obeys my orders." ”
After Cao Cao finished speaking, he looked down at the map: "The homes of the nearest twenty officials who went with the ten permanent servants are distributed on the map, and there are a total of eight people counting me here, so all the brothers under him are divided into eight parts, each with a part of the brothers is responsible for cleaning up three households, and the four people who are far away only clean up two households." ”
"Yes!" Everyone said in a deep voice.
Cao Cao then began to divide the tasks, and the eight families farthest away from the mansion were assigned to Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan, Li Dian and Le Jin.
After the task division was completed, Cao Cao looked at everyone: "Everyone, the twenty families we have selected this time are all people who have done a deep disaster to the Han Dynasty and have died innocently, so you must not leave your hands behind when you act, and try to cut the grass and eradicate the roots."
In addition, bring back all the wealth they have embezzled over the years, and if we can, we will return the 2,000 gold borrowed from Chen Qun, and don't leave him any handle. ”
"Yes!" Everyone hugged their fists in unison.
Cao Cao nodded: "Let's go!" Remember not to divide the troops, half surround the mansion, half enter the mansion to kill, and after one target is finished, the next target should be fast. ”
After Cao Cao finished speaking, he left the house, and Xun Yu and the others also left.
