The third prince pricked up his ears.

The lecture hall was about to open, and the three princes had already said behind Bai Huan and several cousins of the Chen family that they would choose them as companions. The children of the Chen family will never be bad in their martial arts rankings, and they are intimate and loyal to their own family, and the three princes think that they have all the face, and their hearts are happy.

Bai Huan paid attention to what the emperor said while examining the expressions of the three princes.

Bai Huan brought up his younger brother with one hand, and he knew what the third prince was planning in the blink of an eye, and he was so upset.

"I haven't seen anything famous." The emperor sighed and said, "Most of the martial arts performances this time are young officers, one is to select martial arts for the princes to study, and the other is to enrich the talents in the army." But the comparison can't see anything after all. ”

"Whether it is a martial arts lecture or a martial arts exercise, after all, it is to lead the troops to fight. Since His Majesty thinks that the competition in the ring is just a battle on paper, why not change the comparison? Yan decided.

The corners of Bai Huan's eyes jumped slightly.

Yan Jue then went down and said: "The school field is open, and there are horses and armaments. At present, more than half of the military exercises are performed, and there are 100 people left, so why not use 50 people against 50 people, test the art of war before the battle, and the two armies will face each other, and see whether they win or lose? ”

The third prince was so anxious that he was about to shout, if this was the case, the relationship between the Chen family and those cousins would be useless, and it would be really difficult to say whether the winner would be lost. But Bai Huan pulled the third prince's wrist heavily and pressed him to the seat.

"Wouldn't it be too dangerous?" The emperor hesitated.

"Raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while. If Your Majesty has pity on the imperial generals, you can replace the weapon with a wooden knife and remove the tip of the spear, so as not to hurt anyone. ”

"And who's going to lead the troops?" The Emperor asked again.

This is a big problem, whoever dares to take the fat of the family to the mouth in the martial arts will become the next thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh. Those who were selected to be the opponents of the children of the world, those who had real skills took money and released water, and those who did not have real skills were all stepping stones, and they couldn't be the touchstone.

Bai Huan's eyes moved slightly, looking at Chu Zhixia who was teasing the six princes.

Chu Shixia noticed his eyes and raised his eyebrows.

Bai Huan had a bit of a pleading.

If the people of the Chen family are allowed to infiltrate the three princes again, I don't know what will happen in the future.

After a moment of stalemate, Chu Zhixia smiled helplessly, straightened his clothes and stood up, and bowed to the emperor, "The minister is willing to share his worries for His Majesty." ”

——

More than halfway through the martial arts, there was a sudden gold in the field.

The eunuch read out the new rules of the exercise, and the audience was silent, and everyone could only honestly draw lots and divide them into two armies even if their calculations failed. Tents were temporarily set up on the sidelines of the field for the two armies to rest and recuperate.

Cheng Yuan slipped into the tent with a dozen curtains and saluted Chu Zhixia.

Chu Zhixia was sitting in the middle of the tent, not even wearing light armor, wearing a capable black dress, and was wiping the spear in his hand with a handkerchief. Chu Zhixia learned swordsmanship with the sword saint Li Qingbai, but it was not suitable to use short soldiers immediately, she also cultivated bows and arrows and spears, both of which were taught by Chu Mingxiu.

"How?" Chu Zhixia took off the tip of the gun and asked.

"Someone exchanged the lots drawn in private, and the leader of the troops opposite was the grandson of the head of the Chen family, Chen Jixun's brother Chen Boyan." Cheng Yuan said, "I won two rounds and then left, according to the observation of his subordinates, Chen Boyan picked half of the people, half of them are good players in the army who received money to cheat, and the other half are the children of nobles with prominent families." ”

"But there is a strategy, the good hands are used to charge, and the unbeatable waste is used to contain our people." Chu Zhixia snorted and said, "As far as you can see, our side is full of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, a plate of loose sand?" ”

Cheng Yuan nodded in acquiescence.

"That's a good point." Chu Zhixia patted him on the shoulder and said.

Cheng Yuan was even more surprised, "Isn't the eldest lady ready to win?" ”

"I've never liked to lose."

Cheng Yuan asked in astonishment: "Then we are going to hedge against fifty people with two people?" ”

Chu Shixia smiled: "Are you afraid? ”

Cheng Yuan bowed his head without hesitation, and said sonorously: "I am willing to saddle the horse for the eldest lady." ”

"The good and bad of his subordinates are uneven, people's hearts are different, there is neither blood nor tacit understanding, and there is no 'formation' or 'art of war' to speak of." Chu Zhixia earnestly taught, "There is only one strategy for this battle. ”

Cheng Yuan made a gesture of listening.

"Capture the thief and capture the king first."

——

"Counting it up, Chen Boyan is still the cousin of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Pei Zhang and Bai Huan stood together against the railing, and the soldiers and horses were all ready on the field, and the wet snow reflected the cold light. The emperor stood on a higher place, accompanied by several military attachés, gossiping about the strategies that the two sides might use.

Bai Huan turned his head and glanced at Pei Zhang, but did not speak.

"Who does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want to win?" Pei Zhang asked gently.

"Hongu has a lot of cousins." Bai Huan turned his head to look at the crowd that was gradually gathering under the field, and said lightly, "The Chu clan in the clouds has been guarding the four states of the north for generations, and Chu Ming's cultivation of soldiers and ghosts is famous all over the world, and Miss Chu has no reason to lose." ”

The three princes on the side looked at Bai Huan with a little resentment in their eyes.

Pei Zhang took in everything, but smiled silently.

The golden gong was slammed, and the loud voices resounded through the sky.

"Defeat the one who has taken the flag!"

"The commander who falls off the horse will be defeated!"

"Whoever loses more than half of the horses will be defeated!"

"The martial arts show begins!"

——

Cheng Yuan carefully selected nine people from his side, and the nine sturdy teenagers silently observed Chu Zhixia. Chu Zhixia led the white horse to them and was also observing them. The teenagers all had a layer of bright red chilblains on their hands, apparently because of their families' financial constraints.

"My surname is Chu, Chu of the Chu clan in the clouds. You don't have to keep your hands on the field, the sky is falling, and I will bear it. After the martial arts victory, I will ask for a future for your majesty. After Chu Zhixia finished speaking, he ignored them and turned on his horse, "If you believe me, you will charge with me." ”

Five or six eunuchs came over carrying heavy flags, and Chu Zhixia motioned for Cheng Yuan to carry the flags. She didn't dare to give such an important thing to someone she didn't know, and if she believed the wrong person and threw the flag to the ground, she would only be able to tie her hands and arrest it.

Cheng Yuan carried the red flag and rode his horse to Chu Shixia's side.

The sound of the gong sounded throughout the audience.

The exercise begins.

Except for Chu Shixia and Cheng Yuan, no one on the red side knew their tactics, and even the nine people who were selected only knew how to charge with her. A group of people sat on horseback in a daze, and when they saw the martial arts exercise begin, Chen Boyan's black team rushed over.

Chen Boyan abandoned the shield soldiers, his soldiers were strong and strong, and they would never shrink in their shells like turtles. Chu Zhixia beat his younger brother in front, and the leader of the martial arts who intercepted his hand was behind, and the new and old hatreds accumulated together, and he had to frustrate Chu Zhixia's sharpness with his own hands.

This time, Chu Zhixia rode straight into his formation.

The team of forty people behind Chu Zhixia fled in a panic, and if they were swept off the horse, the horse's hooves would break their bones and burst their brains if they stepped on their bodies. Chen Boyan's team didn't chase it, and it didn't chase it, and the scene was very funny for a while.

Surrounding Chen Boyan were all his carefully selected good hands, and immediately brandished a spear and a long knife to sweep Chu Zhixia's horse legs. The white horse under Chu Zhixia's crotch raised its front hooves suddenly, standing up more than one person tall, and the neighing sound roared like thunder.

The spear in Chu Zhixia's hand swept out an arc, hitting the chest of one of the besieging people, and directly swept the person off the horse.

Even with the tip removed, the body of the spear was still made of steel. This sweep was like a gale, and the people around him almost heard the sound of their companion's ribs breaking. The man tumbled and fell off the horse, and the people around him subconsciously retreated with the horses, giving Chu Zhixia a chance to be fierce.

Chu Zhixia rode his horse and flew over from the man, heading straight for Chen Boyan.

Chen Boyan came back to his senses and immediately mobilized people to protect himself.

Chu Zhixia and his ten men were surrounded, and they didn't fall behind.

Cheng Yuan stubbornly guarded the general flag, and everyone who approached him was hit in the head by him wielding a wooden knife, and he directly dismounted from his horse. His arm strength is amazing, the hand holding the flag is cracked, oozing wisps of blood and not letting go, and the other arm can also hold the opponent's head, knocking people out and throwing them off the horse.

Chen Boyan's face was close in front of him, and Cheng Yuan's afterglow flashed, and there was actually a person who rushed straight behind Chu Zhixia.

"Miss!" Cheng Yuan reminded loudly that it was too late.

Chu Zhixia suddenly turned the horse's head, and the spear in her hand was as fast as lightning, and she stabbed the person who attacked her in the chest impartially. The man's throat churned with scarlet sweetness, and he was unloaded with all his strength, and he fell straight backwards.

——

On the high platform, there was a military general who couldn't help but cheer.

"What a beautiful return gun!"

The Emperor smiled on his lips, obviously satisfied.

Yan Jue explained: "Hui horse pistols are rarely used in formation, but they are only used in one-on-one situations. Moreover, if the return rifle misses a single hit, it is easy to get rid of the weapon. Miss Chu is completely sure of it. ”

"Ten people against fifty people, it's still a little reckless." When the emperor said this, the praise in his eyes was overflowing, "However, Chu Mingxiu once attacked five thousand Beidi people with five hundred people, and I think it is the origin of family learning." ”

"Yes." Yan Jue couldn't hide his dissatisfaction, "I just don't know why that person defected, could it be that he didn't want to win in the martial arts?" ”

This reason sounds ridiculous, Yan Jue knows this, and Chen Boyan must have bought him in advance.

When the emperor heard this, he also snorted coldly unpleasantly.

——

Chu Shixia was only a few steps away from Chen Boyan, but Chen Boyan was no longer fooled by her and stepped back. A few wooden knives stabbed at the belly of the white horse, and the others surrounded and attacked Cheng Yuan, who fought and retreated to Chu Zhixia's side, quite embarrassed.

"The eldest lady wants to capture the enemy general?"

A deep voice rang out.

Chu Zhixia glanced at him with his peripheral vision, it was a wheat-skinned young man with a wooden knife in his hand. This is one of the nine people selected by Cheng Yuan, who has been guarding her left rear, and there is blood on his forehead.

"Yes." Chu Zhixia said.

"I would like to open the way for the eldest lady."

"One horse away is enough." Chu Zhixia said coldly, "If you succeed in opening the way, I recommend you to join the Yulin Guard." ”

"Good!"

The young man rushed forward, and the wooden knife in his hand struck the enemy in the chest domineeringly. When he swung the knife, he hid his hand behind his back, so that people could not see the angle of his knife, but the force of the knife was so fierce that the person who was hit by the knife vomited blood and fell.

The horses that had lost their master's control immediately ran in panic, and the young man squeezed a way out of the way for Chu Zhixia.

Chen Boyan was only one person away from Chu Zhixia, and Chu Shixia could even see the panicked look on his face. The people around Chen Boyan immediately came to attack Chu Zhixia, and the wooden knives, spears, and arrows with clusters of arrows were eyeing each other.

But Chu Zhixia's movements were too fast.

The difference between the spear with the tip of the spear and the burning stick is a little longer, but it is still terrifying to hold in Chu Zhixia's hand. The moment she swung her spear, she also forced back all attacks, and no one dared to take the power of that shot.

Push the mountains and split the sea.

Once the shot is fired, there is no room for regret.

The person in front of Chen Boyan flew up almost the moment he was shot, and smashed heavily on Chen Boyan, and the two of them rolled off the horse together and rolled on the ground several times before stopping.

"Red, win!"

——

"It's the Overlord Gun, Chu Mingxiu's Overlord Gun!"

The military attachés around the emperor were all boiling, but only one of them called out the name of the marksmanship. Even Yan Jue, who had always worked hard, was shocked, immersed in the invincible spirit of that shot and couldn't extricate himself.

"Overlord guns?" The Emperor came back to his senses from shock and asked suspiciously.

"Back to Your Majesty, the gun is the king of a hundred soldiers, and the school of gunsmithing is even more unknown. The Beidi people immediately had profound kung fu and a strong physique, so General Chu learned from the strengths of all families and created his own overlord gun. The Overlord Gun is known for its strength and bravery, with no unbreakable shield and no unkillable enemy. According to folk rumors, the moment this gun is wielded, it is as if the broken army general is holding his hand. ”

The military attache who said this was so excited that he almost bit his tongue, and he didn't care that the people of the Chen family were still on the side, "I didn't expect that one day, the minister would be able to see the demeanor of the overlord gun, and he would die without regrets!" ”

"The Overlord Gun is my nonsense."
