In order to maintain order, Jia Fu personally led his soldiers to pull a circle with ropes around the martial arts arena and drove those who did good things out of the circle.

On the edge of the martial arts arena, Jia Jue stood there with his arms outstretched, allowing his own soldiers to put on armor helmets, shoulder pads, arm guards, and leg guards, after the helmet was put on, the war horse was led by Jia Gui, Jia Jue turned over on the horse, reached out and took the horse chopping knife carried by the two personal soldiers, and rode into the martial arts arena.

There are no rules for today's competition, both of them are military generals, and one side can fall off the horse or surrender.

"King of the county, how about we make a bet?"

In the stands of the martial arts arena, Niu Jizong looked at King Shui Rong of Beijing, and only spoke for a while.

Shui Rong bowed and smiled: "Uncle Shi is interested, Xiao Wang should be accompanied, and Xiao Wang will bet on Jin Xianghou for one thousand taels." ”

The hereditary second-class Bo Ma Shang of the Governing Mansion: "I also bet on the Jin Township Marquis for 1,000 taels." ”

"The old man won't participate in the game of you young people."

Liguo Gong Liu Fang smiled slightly.

"I'm betting on five hundred taels of the townsman."

"I also bet on five hundred taels of Jinxianghou."

"I'm betting on the Marquis of Jin...."

A stick of incense passed, Lin Zhixiao walked over with an ugly face, and the winner of the Jin Xianghou was close to 50,000 taels, but there were very few people who won the bet on Jia Jue, Jia Yu couldn't sit still, and said coldly: "I'll bet 20,000 taels!" ”

From the princes and nobles, down to the civil and military officials, they were all stunned on the spot.

"I'll bet on Brother Jue for another 1,000 taels."

This is Xie Qiong's voice.

Shi Nai: "I'll bet another 5,000 taels." ”

Shi Ding: "Three thousand taels." ”

Jia Zhen gritted her teeth, "I'll follow Uncle Pardon, 20,000 taels." ”

Jia Zheng sighed, "I will also bet 20,000 taels." ”

"Okay then, I'll also bet on Brother Jue for 20,000 taels."

Niu Jizong smiled, turned back to Qi Guogong Chen Ruiwen, and said, "Are you always interested?" ”

Chen Ruiwen laughed and said loudly: "The old man doesn't have so much silver, but he can still squeeze out a little, well, I will also bet on Jia Boy, just 10,000 taels." ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent.

"Woo--"

Suddenly, a horn sounded, only to see in the martial arts arena, Jia Jue and Li Jiqing clamped the horse's belly with their legs, each carrying a weapon to rush to each other, under the gaze of everyone, the two weapons collided together like lightning, "dang" A loud bang, the gun in Li Jiqing's hand was bent by Jia Jue's horse chopping knife, Li Jiqing and the horse were split backwards for a few steps before standing, everyone couldn't help but gasp, Li Jiqing was even more horrified in his heart, staring at Jia Jue, heart, what a lot of strength!

Jia Jue sat on the back of the horse and did not move, the two stared at each other for a long time, suddenly, the two of them rode their horses to each other at the same time, just when the two sides were about to touch, Li Jiqing turned over and landed on the other side of the war horse to avoid Jia Jue's horizontal slash, and then Li Jiqing's legs clamped the horse's belly, and his body leaned back to make a move back to the horse pistol, Jia Jue just turned around, and saw the tip of the gun coming, and everyone saw a burst of exclamation, which made Jia Jue have to abandon the horse, but Jia Jue's eyes lit up, Li Jiqing's head was too close to him, Jia Jue's wrist flicked, and the back of the horse slashing knife slammed directly towards Li Jiqing's helmet, Li Jiqing was a person who had been rolling on the battlefield for several years, and instantly turned over and rolled off the war horse, dodging the blow.

This time the attack happened in an instant, and everyone was enthusiastic, Chen Ruiwen praised loudly: "Good boy! ”

Niu Jizong also smiled: "It's really good." ”

The two looked at each other and laughed at each other.

Most of the people sitting here were military generals, and they understood everything just now, and they all understood that Li Jiqing had already lost, and if he was on the battlefield, Jia Jue's knife would not hit his helmet at all.

After Jia Jue landed, he directly brandished the horse chopping knife to attack Li Jiqing, the horse chopping knife in his hand slashed down from the air like lightning, Li Jiqing just stood firm, too late to dodge, could only set up a gun to block, the weapons of the two collided together, making a loud noise, the onlookers saw the two fighting non-stop, and they all cheered unconsciously, especially those servants of the Jia family who came to join in the fun, but also shouted and cheered for Jia Jue, the two killed dust on the ground, grass clippings flew everywhere, this kind of fight between generals is almost rare on weekdays, This made everyone fascinated, and the two were inseparable, after all, Li Jiqing was old, and he was discovered by Jia Jue in one breath, in order to convince Li Jiqing, Jia Jue decided to convince people with his strength and defeat him with the most fierce attack.

Jia Jue shouted, jumped into the air, and used the volley to increase the attack power, which he figured out after seeing the tricks of the wolf, in the face of the chopping knife, Li Jiqing's face was tight, and he had no choice but to block with a gun, and used all his strength to swing Jia Jue's knife away, but, Jia Jue did not use all his strength to smash down, he collected his strength quickly, quickly retracted after smashing, and then smashed it again, so after several times, Li Jiqing's arm had been completely numb by shock, and Li Jiqing failed to catch the last knife, The huge impact force made his palm grind into a bloody blur, and he couldn't hold the iron spear at all, so he fell to the ground, Jia Jue finally kept his hand, if he didn't keep his hand, this knife could split him in half!

"Whew--"

The people around the martial arts arena immediately let out earth-shattering cheers....

Xie Qiong shouted: "This is a martial arts exercise, otherwise.... How tall the grass is on his grave..."

Niu Jizong and Chen Ruiwen glanced at each other, both of them showed a look of relief, although Li Jiqing is not very good, but that martial arts are also first-class among military generals, Jia Jue can force him to be like this, and defeat him with absolute strength, which shows his bravery!

Jia Yu took the account book in Lin Zhixiao's hand, and asked with a red smile: "Thanks to your generosity, the dog is lucky to win, this account is not on credit, come, come, come, let's settle the account.... Lord Wang...."

The water dissolved was startled.

Niu Jizong and Chen Ruiwen were also stunned.

Jia Zheng's face was flushed with shame, and he just wanted to get into the rat hole.

Xie Qiong praised loudly: "It is natural to repay debts. Enhou's work is to be bright. ”
