Zhou Chen stood in the center holding a long spear, and around him were more than thirty people standing, all of them holding weapons.
"Use all your strength. As long as you can defeat me, everyone's salary will be increased by one level and they will take turns to take five days off."
After the words fell, the people around him showed excitement. Although they all knew that their Marquis had amazing martial arts skills and superior combat power, and none of them was an opponent, there was still some hope if they joined forces.
"Yes, Lord Marquis."
Qin Yi stood outside the martial arts arena, looking at his colleagues who were inexplicably excited, and felt a moment of silence for them in his heart.
As the commander of Zhou Chen's personal guards, he knows Zhou Chen's strength best. Although these personal guards are already good soldiers in the army, and have been trained by Zhou Chen, they have extraordinary combat power.
But it also depends on who you compare with. Compared with ordinary sergeants, he is naturally very outstanding, but compared with Zhou Chen.
Qin Yi shook his head. He had already foreseen the scene of his subordinates being beaten violently.
Just when the battle was about to begin, Zhou Huai suddenly led someone over and stopped in front of Qin Yi.
"Commander Qin, this is Commander Gu, whom you have met. He said he was coming to visit the Marquis." Zhou Huai pointed at Gu Qianfan and said.
Gu Qianfan also politely handed over to Qin Yi: "Commander Qin."
Although Qin Yi does not have an official position now, as Zhou Chen's personal guard commander, he is Zhou Chen's confidant. Although Gu Qianfan is the commander of the Imperial City Department, he will not despise him.
Qin Yi also cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Commander Gu. Mr. Marquis is busy. Commander Gu may have to wait for a while."
"It doesn't matter, this is what it should be."
Gu Qianfan was very humble. Zhou Chen was a hereditary marquis. Even his deceased grandfather was similar in rank to Zhou Chen, but in terms of status, he was still inferior to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion.
Although nobles are not favored by civilian officials, their status is very high, especially for marquises such as Zhongyong Houfu who are hereditary and irreplaceable.
This time he met Zhou Chen and asked for something.
After he saw clearly what was going on in the martial arts arena, he was also shocked, because both sides actually used real swords and guns. To his surprise, the battle on the martial arts arena had already begun.
The first one to launch the attack was Zhou Chen, who was surrounded. He shook his spear and drew it out like a dragon, attacking the nearest person directly.
"Ding Ding Dangdang ..."
Gu Qianfan's eyes widened and he looked at the melee in front of him in disbelief.
Zhou Chen was like a god of war, knocking down all those who besieged him. There were so many people, but no one could get within three feet of him. Even if they came close, they would be quickly repulsed.
It was obviously a melee with a huge difference in numbers, but Zhou Chen knocked down everyone in a short period of time, and in the end he was the only one left standing on the martial arts field.
Even though Gu Qianfan had become famous at a young age and had strong martial arts skills, he remained silent when he saw such a tough Zhou Chen.
With his eyes, he could naturally see that those who besieged Zhou Chen were the best among the best when placed in their Imperial City Division.
But these thirty or so people couldn't even hold on to half a stick of incense in front of Zhou Chen. This fighting power was really terrifying.
Until this moment, he did not believe that Zhou Chen could obtain the title of Young General of the Song Dynasty not only because he was born in a famous family, but also that he could obtain this honor by himself.
With his amazing combat power and excellent command and combat capabilities, it is no wonder that when Zhou Chen was guarding the border, he almost destroyed the Dingnan Army.
After the battle ended, Qin Yi and Zhou Huai immediately walked towards Zhou Chen. Qin Yi took Zhou Chen's weapon, while Zhou Huai took out a handkerchief to wipe Zhou Chen's sweat.
"Zhou Huai, go to the accounting office later to collect the money, distribute it to everyone, and take a day off. After one month, I will test them again."
"Yes, Lord Marquis, I will go and do it right away."
Qin Yi whispered: "Master Hou, Commander Gu has been here for a while."
Zhou Chen threw the handkerchief to Zhou Huai and walked towards Gu Qianfan. He had already seen Gu Qianfan when he came.
"Commander Gu, more than twenty days have passed since we said goodbye to Qiantang. Have you just returned to Beijing?"
Gu Qianfan bowed and said, "Master Hou, I have just returned to Beijing. I came to see you today to ask for advice."
"Let's go and talk inside the house."
