"Commander, I have been harmed by you, Xiao Yi must fall out with me!"
He temporarily arranged Yang Liu to rest in an inn. When he walked out of the inn, Zheng Ping complained.
Chen Qing poked his chest with his finger and said with disdain: "I know very well what kind of person you are. If it weren't for her good looks, you would run to help her over and over again? Visit her? How dare you say that?
Have you never had any ideas about her?"
Zheng Ping was impressed by what Chen Qing said. He scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I was a little attracted to her at first, but Xiao Yi really likes her, so I feel embarrassed to argue with Xiao Yi."
"But she also said just now that she doesn't like Xiao Yi. Do you know why?"
Zheng Ping nodded, "Xiao Yi is a little weaker."
"That's right, Xiao Yi has no sense of security, but you are different. You can protect her. Even the arrogant Fu Moshan has to give you face. Of course she will choose you."
Zheng Ping finally made up his mind, "Okay! I'll just marry her, but I want to make it clear that I can only marry her as my concubine."
Chen Qing knew his family's background and his parents might not accept Yang Liu as his head wife.
"This is your own business, I don't care, you just need to put them in place."
Zheng Ping thought for a while and said: "Fu Moshan will not give up on her. I will take her away now and then take her father with me to Hanzhong. If I marry her in Hanzhong, his father will not dare to mess around. Maybe I will invite five
What a day off!”
Chen Qing patted him on the shoulder and said, "I will give you ten days' leave to get them settled. I will take care of your army for the time being."
Chen Qing took out another twenty taels of silver and gave it to him. Zheng Ping quickly shook his head and said, "I have more than a hundred taels of silver here! If it's not enough, I'll get some more from Hanzhong Money Shop."
Chen Qing arranged for three more subordinates to follow Zheng Ping south. Zheng Ping did not dare to waste time. He bought some dry food and supplies for the road, then left Dashanguan with Yang Liu and several subordinates and headed for Houguan Village ten miles away.
Zheng Ping left, and Yang Zaixing, who had been silent all this time, smiled and said: "Originally, the commander did not want to bring him here, but he begged to come with him. This shows that there is God's will in the dark."
Chen Qing also laughed, "This kid is looking forward to coming to Dashanguan, eating and drinking, and going to a brothel at night. Unfortunately, God's fate is not as good as God's. This is his destiny!"
.........
Fu Moshan returned to the camp, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Only then did he slowly come to his senses. Chen Qing didn't even bother to deal with him, so he sent one of his men to scare him away.
He must have heard his subordinates calling him commander, so he used this method to humiliate himself.
Fu Moshan felt so humiliated that he kicked the chair to pieces.
"What are you doing?" Uncle Fu Xuan's stern voice came from behind.
Fu Moshan was startled and quickly knelt down on one knee, "My nephew was bullied and felt depressed."
"Did you meet Chen Qing at noon?"
It seemed that his uncle already knew the situation. Fu Moshan lowered his head and said: "Exactly, Chen Qing despises his nephew, which is too much!"
Fu Xuan said coldly: "You didn't fight with him?"
"My nephew...my nephew put the overall situation first and walked away in anger."
Fu Xuan looked at him for a while, nodded and said, "You did a great job this time. It's rare for me to praise you."
Fu Moshan sighed, "Thank you uncle for the compliment, but I can't bear the bad temper!"
"You have to endure it even if you can't bear it!"
Fu Xuan's eyes became stern, "Do you think you are the only one who endures this? Wang Yan and Chen Qing colluded and took away my most elite three thousand soldiers. The hatred in my heart is ten times or a hundred times more than yours, but I
You have to endure it. It was with Zhang Jun's backing that Chen Qing was so arrogant. Now Zhang Jun is very powerful. We have just taken over the Eight-Character Army. We must learn to behave with our tail between our legs. We keep our hatred in our hearts, not forget it."
"How long do you have to endure it?"
"It's almost time! Zhu Shengfei said that the officials want to transfer Zhang Jun away. I guess there will be news next year."
"Then will Mr. Zhu come to replace Zhang Jun next year?"
"I don't know, but you have to remember that no matter who succeeds Zhang Jun, he will be an emperor and a courtier. We will definitely have a future."
.............
Early the next morning, drums were rumbling, trumpets were wailing, and tens of thousands of soldiers were standing around the campus at Dashanguan Campus. The atmosphere was very lively.
Nominally, this competition was to compete for the Five Hundred Divine Arm Crossbows, but Zhang Jun regarded it as a martial arts competition to boost morale, and the nature was different.
In the north stand, Zhang Jun was sitting on a tiger-skin handsome chair, with a group of generals and civilian officials sitting on both sides. Most of the generals were above the commander-in-chief level.
Although Chen Qing was only the commander, he was the envoy of Qinzhou and had an independent Qinzhou army. He was also qualified to sit in the north stand, but he sat at the very edge.
On the school field, two armies were fighting each other. The dust was flying and the fighting was fierce.
Today all the armies are going to make their appearance, except for Chen Qing's Qinzhou Army, which was just established and is still in the integration stage.
The bell rang, and the two armies on the school grounds withdrew, and a large formation of three thousand people with spears appeared, with neat appearance, vigorous steps, and murderous intent.
The leader of the general is Fu Moshan. He is holding a big sword and is proud of himself. It seems that he is commanding this kind of army, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that this army has nothing to do with him. The soldiers and his rhythm are completely different. The real
The person who commands the army is the deputy general in the team.
Although everyone remained silent, Fu Xuan's face felt hot, and he secretly regretted that it was a mistake to let his nephew command this army. Not only did he not give his nephew a chance to show off, but he was embarrassed.
The soldiers around him were merciless and booed. Finally, the martial arts performance was over. Fu Moshan led the army down in embarrassment.
At this time, the sound of the drums changed, and a crossbow army of 500 people came out. Chen Qing was refreshed. This was the 500 divine arm crossbow army that everyone was fighting for.
These five hundred people are all tall and strong, and can independently draw two-stone divine arm crossbows. They are sharp weapons against the Jurchen cavalry. No wonder everyone is jealous of them.
The five hundred god-armed crossbow troops only performed a bow formation and did not actually fire arrows, which would easily injure surrounding soldiers by mistake.
Liu Ziyu, who was sitting next to him, smiled in a low voice and said to Chen Qing: "The lottery has been revealed, and now comes the riding and shooting competition."
Chen Qing smiled slightly and said: "Who will Liu Dutong send to participate in the fight?"
"The most suitable person is my nephew Liu Qiong, but unfortunately he is in Lin'an, so I can only send my third son Liu Cui to fight."
Speaking of this, Liu Ziyu suddenly thought of something and said with some worry: "Wouldn't the Qinzhou Army want Commander Chen to personally fight for it?"
Chen Qing chuckled, "I really have this idea, but unfortunately everyone doesn't allow it. Fortunately, I still have a strong general under my command. Let's see how he performs!"
"I heard that Commander Chen is very skilled in archery. Is there any chance we can compete with each other?"
"Beizhi has long wanted to learn Liu Dutong's magic arrows. I heard that Liu Dutong is known as the best arrow in the world, and Beizhi has always admired him."
Liu Ziyu was a little angry and said: "Listen to their nonsense, who dares to claim that he is the best archer in the world? I only have a few kilograms of stupid strength. In terms of archery, I am not as good as Zhou Tong."
Liu Ziyu sighed: "Our personal archery skills are meaningless. We must cultivate an army with outstanding cavalry and archery, so that we can compete with the Jurchen cavalry."
"But that takes time!"
"Yes! I may not have a chance, so I hope to cultivate such an army under General Chen."
While the two were talking, the riding and archery competition began. This time even Qu Duan, the commander of the garrison in Hanzhong, sent a general to participate in the competition. In addition, there were generals from Wu Gao, Fu Xuan's generals, Liu Qi's generals,
Guan Shigu's men, Liu Ziyu's men, Chen Qing's men, and finally even Wu Jie couldn't stand up to his men's demands and sent a young general who was good at riding and archery to participate in the competition.
A total of eight young generals participated in the riding and shooting competition.
The rules are also relatively simple. There are five wooden frames placed within a distance of a hundred steps, and three copper coins are hung on each wooden frame. The one with more copper coins landing wins.
The drums beat, and the eight generals rode into the school grounds like a whirlwind, arousing cheers from the soldiers.
