Chapter 256: Showing Your Skills
To be honest, it's no wonder that the magnates in Kyoto, let alone them, in the whole of Kyoto, the only one who knows that the Dongshan Army was secretly assigned to Su Qi'an is His Majesty today.
Su Qi'an caused such a big mess in Kyoto, His Majesty still had to give many powerful people an explanation no matter what, so he compromised the pursuit of Su Qi'an by the Kyoto magnates.
But this does not mean that His Majesty does not have any feelings for Su Qi'an, and Su Xuanyong will not forget Su Qi'an's contribution in the defense of Kyoto.
Therefore, after exploiting Su Qi'an to become a marquis and give up his military power, in fact, Su Xuanyong was secretly preparing the remaining 1,000 Dongshan troops.
And from the city of Kyoto, the major conscriptions, another thousand veteran oil.
Su Xuanyong knew that only Su Qi'an could suppress this group of soldiers, and only in his hands could he exert the greatest value.
And this matter is absolutely highly confidential, only he and Su Qi'an know, and no one else knows.
Under His Majesty's arrangement, the newly formed 2,000 Dongshan troops had already been secretly handed over to Su Qi'an.
As for how Su Qi'an used it, that was his business, and Su Xuanyong did everything he had to do.
If Su Qi'an still can't escape death in the end, it can only be said that Su Xuanyong is wrong about him.
Su Xuanyong's importance to Su Qi'an has never changed, but whether he can finally grow to the day he expects depends on how he goes on this road.
After all, in all dynasties, all those talented people have experienced countless lives and deaths, and many ups and downs.
This is Su Qi'an's first major test, and if he fails even the first time, it can only mean that this is his fate.
Fortunately, in the end, Su Qi'an not only successfully returned to Lingbei County, but even had an unexpected joy, the prince Tang Xiao, who thought very highly of himself and fell into his game.
Of course, Su Qi'an naturally wouldn't tell Tang Xiao about all this, but now, catching him is the most important thing for Su Qi'an.
The atmosphere was tense in an instant, although there were not many people on the field, only five or six people, but everyone understood that it would not be long before the victory or defeat was divided.
Listening to the fierce battle that broke out outside, there were five or six people on the field, staring at each other nervously, and no one had any intention of making a move.
Time passed minute by minute, and at this time, seven or eight soldiers rushed in this side hall.
These people were Shuisheng's subordinates, and Shui Sheng breathed a sigh of relief a little when he saw them rushing in.
Yima was standing in front of Tang Xiao and said loudly, "Shizi, you go quickly, we are here, and our subordinates have arranged manpower to take care of them outside, as long as Shizi is safe, we will have no regrets even if we die."
Shui Sheng's words made Tang Xiao quite moved, he nodded heavily, got up, came to the back of Shui Sheng, and said solemnly, "Shui Sheng, your kindness, I remember, as long as you can survive, this son will definitely promote you to be the deputy envoy of Xizhou City."
After that, Tang Xiao did not hesitate, and ran out of the side hall under the cover of several people.
Su Yong, who was watching this scene, immediately wanted to fight with a few people in front of him, and wanted to rush out.
He understood the importance of Tang Xiao to Su Qi'an, as long as he could capture Tang Xiao alive, he would be qualified to negotiate with Tang Feng, and he would be able to ensure that Tang Feng would not dare to act rashly.
But as soon as Su Yong made a move, he was stopped by Su Qi'an, he patted Su Yong's shoulder, shook his head, and looked at the aquatic life in front of him.
chuckled, "It's really a loyal play, this book doesn't seem to have taught you, if I'm not bad, you don't have anyone outside to answer it."
"Tang Xiao's escape, it's just a suicide attempt, but through this, you can get their trust again, Shuisheng, I haven't seen you for half a year, you have changed a lot."
What Su Qi'an said did not make Shui Sheng's face change greatly, but looked at Su Qi'an with a little admiration on his face.
"Hehe, worthy of being a gentleman, his mind is higher than that of the world, and he can see through my intentions at a glance."
"It's only a matter of time before Tang Xiao is arrested, I'm more curious about how you plan to escape from here, I don't believe you'll be arrested obediently."
"Run? The gentleman said with a smile, under this heaven and earth net, aquatic
It's hard to escape."
"What, do you want to take me? Take the opportunity to take me hostage and let you go?" Su Qi'an seemed to think of something, and smiled playfully.
"Hehe, worthy of being a gentleman, the reaction is fast, this is the best strategy at the moment, although it seems to be a little difficult at the moment, but how can you know if you don't try?"
"Sir, don't blame the water for being ruthless, brothers, go on, capture Su Qi'an alive, only in this way can you save your life."
Shui Sheng sneered, and then gave an order, and seven or eight people under his command immediately rushed over with a big knife in their hands.
They also knew what the situation was at the moment, if they fled directly, with their strength, they would not be the opponent of the Dongshan Army outside at all.
Instead of this, it is better to give it a go and take down Su Qi'an directly, but there are only Su Yong and Huang Wenyan around Su Qi'an.
The latter is just a literati, and at first glance he knows that he is a powerless waste.
As for the former, Su Yong's strength, Shui Sheng has been taught, but there are many of them, seven or eight people, and they are at such a close distance.
Give it a go, and maybe you can do it.
Seven or eight big knives slashed at Su Qi'an in front of him, Su Yong's eyes were quick, he overturned the table in front of him and kicked it.
The power came, and the overturned table immediately suppressed the person in front of him.
But the area of the table was not large enough, and two or three people still escaped the attack, including the aquatic life,
Shui Sheng shouted at Su Yong, and the next moment he took the initiative to fight with Su Yong.
Seeing this, the rest of the people immediately rushed towards Su Qi'an, although Huang Wenyan was a literati, but at this time he didn't take half a step back, and he found a wooden stick from nowhere.
resisted the big knife that was chopped in, Huang Wenyan was a literati after all, and he had never learned kung fu. ap.
In less than two rounds, he was kicked away, and without Huang Wenyan's protection, the two soldiers looked at Su Qi'an with fierce faces, and sneered.
"Dongshan Hou, take your life!"
In their cognition, in addition to his outstanding talent, this Dongshan Marquis is best at riding and shooting, which they have seen when they suppressed bandits.
But the marksman has a fatal weakness, that is, he is not good at close combat, once he is close, no matter how good his marksmanship is, it is difficult to bring it into play.
The space in the side hall was already small, even if Su Qi'an had a bow in his hand, he would not be able to use it if he was deceived by them.
Besides, Su Qi'an doesn't have a bow at the moment, and he only has a pair of iron claws in his hands.
Su Qi Anke is not good at close combat, and he doesn't even have the ability to resist at all.
These iron claws are mostly designed to scare people.
The two of them did not hesitate at all, and the big knife in their hands slashed at Su Qi'an.
They won't want Su Qi'an's life, they just let him bleed some and lose his ability to move.
When the time comes, it's up to him to change his life.
Just when the two soldiers were looking forward to taking Su Qi'an and evacuating safely.
Suddenly, the sound of metal clashing sounded, and two large knives slashed fiercely on the iron claws.
The stalemate between the two sides even popped up bursts of sparks, without waiting for the two to exert themselves.
The corners of Su Qi'an's mouth, whose face was calm, raised an arc, and his hands were forced.
With a claw, he suddenly exerted his strength and directly threw the big knife in the hands of the two people.
The two of them were startled, and before they could react, the iron claws slashed directly at the chests of the two.
Tear and pull!
The clothes on their bodies were torn in an instant, and with the blood bursting from their chests, the two of them fell to the ground as soon as their bodies became weak.
Their faces were thick with incredulity, covering their bleeding chests, and they looked at Su Qi'an deadly.
The movement that happened here naturally attracted the attention of Shui Sheng, and he never thought that things would go this way.
Su Qi'an still understands it, obviously he is just a superb marksman, even if he knows some kung fu, it is not enough to solve two soldiers at once in close combat.
It was something he had never seen before.
Not to mention him, even Li Hu and Zhao Da's two henchmen, they didn't know that Su Qi'an's melee ability would be so strong.
Su Qi'an has always kept an eye on it, except on the battlefield, when he encounters a battle of life and death, he will fight in person as a last resort.
The rest of the time, most of the time is shown with excellent strategy and marksmanship.
As for his fighting ability, except for a very few people such as Tong Zhan and Su Yong, who have followed him on the battlefield and fought against him, no one else knows about it.
And this is one of Su Qi'an's hidden hole cards, Su Qi'an's melee fighting, which was recognized by Tong Zhan at the beginning.
Under a fair duel, Su Qi'an and Tong Zhan are four or six open, and they may not be able to beat him.
But being able to play with a first-class decision-making master like Tong Zhan is enough to show Su Qi'an's strength.
And the two soldiers who rushed in front of him were not top masters, and under carelessness, if Su Qi'an couldn't solve the two, it would be a shame.
After solving the two of them, Su Qi'an had no intention of stopping, holding the iron claws left by the King of Thousand Faces, and rushed towards the rest of the soldiers.
The two sides immediately started a life-and-death fight, and this time, Shui Sheng finally saw how strong Su Qi'an's melee strength was.
In the case of one enemy and four, Su Qi'an showed ease, and in just a dozen breaths, he directly killed all the remaining four.
This scene was quite shocking to see Shui Sheng, and he understood why Su Yong, who was Su Qi'an's personal guard, would watch Su Qi'an face the enemy without the slightest intention of rescuing.
With Su Qi'an's skills, where else do you need assistance, if the space allows, he is afraid that he will be able to kill all the soldiers he brought.
Shui Sheng's eyes flashed, and he quickly realized the current predicament, he did not hesitate, slashed at Su Yong, and then retreated.
Seeing this, Su Yong stepped forward instantly, and at this time, Shui Sheng threw a smoke bomb at Su Yong.
Smoke bombs exploded, instantly enveloping the side hall, and nothing could be seen.
At this time, in the smoke, there was a sneer from Shuisheng, "Sir, your strength really shocked Shuisheng, this time I planted it, but next time Mr. will definitely not have such good luck!"
"Next time, the aquatic life will take the life of the gentleman! We'll see."
