Chapter Seventy-One: The Contest
Zhang Fei breathed a sigh of relief when he heard what Zhang Xiang said, he knew that this Zhou Cang would not die, although Zhou Cang didn't know what Zhang Xiang wanted to do, he was still ready to resist, "Bet on what you don't dare." ”
Zhang Xiang: "That's good, you remember what you said, if you are willing to gamble and lose, you are very confident in your own force, then I will pick out three generals from the army to fight against you, you only need to defeat one person in this gamble, even if you win." ”
"It's that simple?" Zhou Cang is very confident in his own strength, although he doesn't dare to guarantee that he can win Zhang Fei, but there is still some hope of winning others, he doesn't believe that Zhang Xiang has so many fierce generals, even in the Yellow Turban Army, there are few who can surpass him in force.
Zhang Xiang: "Of course, if you win, not only will I let you go, but your brother can also leave with you, but if you lose, you and your brother will stay here and serve me, I think this condition is fair for both parties." ”
Zhou Cang: "Then it's decided, don't regret it then." Zhang Xiang sent someone to bring Zhou Cang down, and the competition was scheduled for tomorrow morning, so let him go down first to rest and rest.
Zhou Cang left, and Zhang Fei couldn't help but speak, "Third brother, you underestimate this Zhou Cang too much, if I want to take him down, it will be fifty rounds later, except for me and Long Ben in the army who can defeat him, the others are still a little worse." ”
Zhang Xiang: "Big brother, don't worry, I didn't underestimate this Zhou Cang, how dare I underestimate the person who can be valued by the eldest brother?" I've decided to send Monza tomorrow and we won't have to worry about it as long as Monza wins the remaining two. ”
Zhang Fei: "The strength of the second brother-in-law Zhao Rui is about the same as Monza, if you really pick one of the four of them, then choose the uncle!" He might last a little longer. ”
Zhang Xiang: "It's useless to last long, what I want is to win, the strength of these four people is indeed half a catty, but Monza's fist and foot kung fu is better than the other three, big brother, don't forget, tomorrow is more hope of winning than Wu Monza." ”
Zhang Fei was a little bottomless in his heart, but in fact, there was indeed no more suitable person in the army than Monza now, Zhang Fei also waited for others, and went to Monza himself and told him about the gambling war.
Monza is much more than Zhang Fei imagined, he has been in this world for many years, and naturally understands Zhang Xiang's thoughts, so he must not lose this battle, otherwise his current position will not be kept.
As an old man beside Zhang Xiang, Monza has a thousand soldiers under him, and it can be said that he is a powerful figure in the Xiangfei army.
How to ensure his status depends entirely on Zhang Xiang's attitude, Monza knows that Zhang Xiang is a very nostalgic person, otherwise he would not have promoted himself all the way, so he can't let Zhang Xiang down, Monza immediately went to Zhang Xiang.
Zhang Xiang saw Monza hurrying over, "It seems that you already know about tomorrow's martial arts competition, Zhang Feilong is the only one around me who has hope of defeating Zhou Cang, remember that tomorrow no matter what method is used, you will have to win Zhou Cang, he is still young, you should have a way." ”
Monza knew that Zhang Xiang was letting him use a trick! If it was Zhang Feilongben, he would definitely go away in a bad mood, but Monza would not have experienced a lot of hard times, and he had killed people for a bite to eat, so the trick was nothing to him, but it changed hands.
"Lord, I understand, I will definitely defeat Zhou Cang tomorrow, I take the liberty to ask if the lord wants to be important to Zhou Cang?" Monza wanted to slap himself in the mouth after saying this, and he regretted it a little.
Although Monza asked such an inopportune question, Zhang Xiang was surprised, but there was nothing to be unhappy about, after all, it was not a secret, after all, everyone will know after tomorrow, "That's right, I'm very optimistic about him." ”
Monza was already lucky to see that Zhang Xiang was not angry, so he immediately left Zhang Xiang's camp, and the news of tomorrow's martial arts competition also spread in the army, and everyone was waiting to see a good show?
After all, there are not many things that can be adjusted in the army, and the competition is indeed a rare form of entertainment, and the person who competes is a famous general in Zhang Xiang's army, so everyone naturally flocks to it.
On the day of the competition, many people occupied the ground before dawn, for fear that there was no good position to see, and everyone had the heart of blind obedience, so the school field in the camp was full of many people at once.
Zhang Xiang also came to the school field, everyone should give way to the road, the competition began, Zhou Cang faced Zhang Fei first, and Zhou Cang spoke before he started, "I admit defeat in this competition, replace the next person!" ”
The soldiers of the Xiangfei Army all let out a boo, Zhang Xiang valued Zhou Cang more, a loyal and knowing the trade-off, it was a pity that Guan Yu took him as a guard, the better Zhou Cang behaved, the more Zhang Xiang would not let him go.
Zhang Xiang even thought that if Zhou Cang really won a game, he would regret it regardless of his face, it is rare for a person like Zhang Xiang to have such an idea.
In the second game, Zhang Xiang sent Monza, and the reason why Zhang Xiang did not send Long Ben was because Zhang Xiang knew that if Zhou Cang reached the third game, it would be very crazy, even if Zhou Cang lost some physical strength in the second game, it would still be difficult for Monza to win.
After all, Zhang Xiang didn't know what Monza's back hand was now, and Monza walked in and threw away his weapon, "Do you dare to punch and kick?" "Zhou Cang is also a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and he threw away his weapons all at once.
Monza saw that Zhou Cang was so obedient, he was more confident in this competition, and the two sides began to punch and kick, and at first Monza could also fight against Zhou Cang with experience.
But as Zhou Cang became familiar with this kind of confrontation, he gradually gained the upper hand, Zhou Cang himself has a lot of strength, and his speed is no worse than that of Bai Que, which is worthy of being a famous scud in the history of the wild, and it is not a waste of fame.
Everyone also pinched a handful for Monza, and Monza also knew that he would definitely lose in such a fight, and it seemed that he had to use a yin move, Monza suddenly fell to the ground with his left hand, and kicked Zhou Cang's left knee with his right foot.
Zhou Cang naturally jumped away easily, and hit Monza who fell to the ground with his right fist, at this time Monza grabbed a handful of soil with his right hand and threw it at Zhou Cang's eyes.
Monza took the opportunity to roll and dodge Zhou Cang's punch, one stood up, the other turned and kicked in a roundabout kick, and kicked Zhou Cang's left face with his right foot, Monza immediately fainted, and Monza knocked Zhou Cang to the ground with a punch.
Monza won Zhang Xiang's hanging heart and fell to the ground, but Zhou Cang was very unconvinced, "You actually cheated, I don't accept it." Zhou Cang obviously didn't believe in such an outcome.
Zhang Xiang spoke at this time, "Zhou Cang, you can't afford to lose, right?" It doesn't seem to be clear that you can't cheat when you compete, winning is winning and losing is losing, you better prepare for the next one! I won't take advantage of you, you can take a break. ”
Zhou Cang also had to accept this result, and said stiffly, "Okay, I'll see what other tricks you have, and I'll follow." Zhou Cang was not impulsive and went to the sidelines to rest.
Zhang Xiang knew that Zhou Cang had no chance, Long Ben was not something that Zhou Cang could win with a hard mouth, but at the critical moment, Long Ben appeared again, he actually came on foot, Long Ben is good at riding battles!
Long Ben is good at but Zhou Cang is the least good at it, so Zhang Xiang will win steadily, but in this way, there is really some suspense in this game, and the reason why Long Ben does this is just because he doesn't want to take advantage of others.
There is also the fact that he was a little shameless about Monza's approach just now, no matter how Long Ben's character is changing, he is still so unruly in his bones, and Zhang Xiang has nothing to do with Long Ben at this time.
can only resign himself to fate, but Zhang Xiang still underestimated Long Ben a little, Long Ben is indeed very powerful in cavalry, but his land combat is not bad, all Long Ben was bullying and dominating the market when he was in Wangdu County, but he used his fists and feet to solve it, so he was very confident in himself.
Although Long Ben has some sympathy for Zhou Cang, but he will not release water, the word loss is the most unbearable for Long Ben, Zhou Cang walked into the school field with a long-handled broadsword, Long Ben still thought it was better than fists and feet?
There is no choice but to get the horse lance again, the horse lance is a horse weapon as the name suggests, it is very inconvenient to fight on the ground for a long time, but the power of Zhou Cang's big knife on the ground is very strong.
When Zhou Cang saw Long Ben take out the horse lance, he knew that the person who came was a rich man, and he unconsciously despised it, but when the weapons of the two sides collided, Zhou Cang put away this ease.
Long Ben's strength is no worse than Zhang Fei's, Zhou Cang found that he was not as good as this rich man in terms of strength, which made him think of Zhang Fei who was watching from the sidelines, Zhang Fei also pouted and smiled, thinking that comparing strength with Long Ben is to find death.
Zhou Cang can only choose to fight, in fact, this is Zhou Cang's least favorite way, and it is also Zhou Cang's best way, who made Zhou Cang's speed very fast, his master also valued Zhou Cang's point and taught him according to his aptitude.
Long Ben had to admit that it was not as good as this Zhou Cang in terms of speed, although the length of the horse lance did not hinder Long Ben's combat power, but it was true that the horse lance was indeed not suitable for ground combat, and it was not obvious to deal with small soldiers in peacetime, and once it was a little powerless against the master.
Long Ben was getting more and more impatient, but Zhou Cang was playing more and more steadily, Zhang Xiang was also afraid that Long Ben would capsize in the gutter, but Zhang Fei next to him said a word, "Zhou Cang is finished." ”
Zhang Xiang: "Big brother Zhou Cang seems to have the upper hand!" How do you say he's finished? ”
Zhang Fei: "The third brother Long Ben has been by my side during this time, it is inevitable that there will be some exchanges, after Long Ben's personality has changed greatly, the more impatient he is, the stronger the force, the more light his hands and feet, Zhou Cang provoked him, just wait to be beaten!" ”
Sure enough, at this time, there was a change on the battlefield, Long Ben actually took the opportunity to throw the weapon, grabbed the long handle of the big knife, grabbed it desperately and let out a roar, and kicked it with one foot, and Zhou Cang had no choice but to give up the big knife.
Long Ben hugged Zhou Cang and rolled to the ground, and his right fist began to hit wildly, no matter where it hit, although Zhou Cang resisted a little, but Long Ben turned a blind eye to it, and only knew how to swing his fist, the Ning brothers on the sidelines were very familiar with this kind of scene, and now they are all sore when they think about it.
