Chapter 43 Gambling (2)
The rule of the first competition was that the two teams had thirty people each, carrying 20 kilograms and traveling back and forth for twenty miles in half an hour. The team completed first, even if the team won. The result is that although the first few people came back were from the princess team, until all the people from Liu Shaoqing and his team arrived, the princess's people were still not there. According to the original agreement, it was obvious that Liu Shaoqing and his team completed first, and the little princess lost.
The princess, who lost the first round, was so angry that she hadn't considered that there were two competitions, she would almost beat the last few people to death. As the referee, Zai Tian was thinking about it.
As for the other ministers, I guess they are angry in their hearts. Everyone sees what Liu Shaoqing's team looks like when he comes back, and it is clearly relaxed and happy. In addition, he has obviously given up on you when he set off, so he can't win. Besides being embarrassed, what else can you do?
After the first game, the two sides only had a brief rest and the second game began immediately.
Song Shirong is 37 years old this year. As a martial artist, this age is when the qi and blood are at its peak. As the successor of SX's ancient Xingyiquan, Song Shirong not only studied the internal skills and mental methods personally passed down by Li Feiyu, but also obtained the "Four Classics of Internal Power" passed down by Liu Xiaotang in the capital.
Mr. Liu Xiaotang once worked in the Ministry of Works of the Shenyang Palace Museum, and obtained the four classics of martial arts secrets "Internal Power Sutra", "Na Gua Sutra", "Shenyun Sutra", and "Diyulong Sutra" hidden in the database. Later, at the instruction of Emperor Guangxu, the "Four Internal Power Sutra" were taught separately to the guards and martial arts instructors of the Forbidden Palace of the Capital and the major royal palaces.
After Song Shirong obtained the "Four Classics of Internal Power", he studied and tried it repeatedly, and integrated Tai Chi and Bagua fists. His martial arts were super magical. This time, it was a rare match for the Grand Inner Guard to complete the "Zhennan Army" in Song Shirong's opinion.
In addition to being good at Xingyi's "Five Elements Fist" and "Twelve-shaped Fist", he is not weak in his legs. With the unremitting practice of "crossing the roots and flying" exercises, the fascia from both sides of the thighs to the toes has been unimaginably strengthened, the legs and feet have become very flexible, and the body appears light, convenient, and can move freely. If this advantage is achieved during martial arts, it can achieve the effect of "step to the person and turn", and it is even easier to deal with the first competition of "weight-bearing off-road".
The other selected guards are even more proficient in Baguazhang and Tan Le. These martial arts emphasize step and legs, making it easier to do this first competition.
However, unexpectedly, the first competition actually gave the "Zhennan Army" the first place.
Although the main reason for the failure was that the soldiers of the Beijing camp dragged their backs, the extremely solid foundation and physical fitness shown by the soldiers of the "Zhennan Army" in the game, as well as their strong discipline and team strength, Song Shirong completely put down his contempt for these short and dark-skinned young people.
So in the second round of competition that is about to begin, Song Shirong is ready to do his best.
Song Shirong is proficient in the "Xingyi Chain Gun", and his own "big gun shaking skills" is even more amazing. He is determined to win this round of competition.
The eunuchs who were doing odd jobs had already used white gray circles for the competition. The competition time was two quarters of an hour, that is, half an hour for the Western time. During this time, anyone who could stay in this circle with a radius of twenty meters and had no white gray on his body would be successful. At that time, the number of people who had "inventory" on both sides would be calculated, and the more people would win.
"Dongdongdongdong..."
With the sound of drums, the second competition officially began.
Before the competition began, 30 people from the "Zhennan Army" gathered in the south, while the people from the Danei, the royal palace and the Beijing camp were divided into three small groups, guarding the east, west and north, forming a three-talent formation to force the "Zhennan Army". When the drums stopped, they saw nine people quickly snatch out from the "Zhennan Army" and headed straight for the ten elite soldiers of the "Shenji Camp" on the left wing.
As soon as the "Zhennan Army" moved, Song Shirong immediately understood the other party's intention. Although the soldiers of the "Shenji Camp" have improved due to the vigorous rectification of King Chun in recent years, this is only compared to the past. The so-called "it is difficult to return", the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the "Shenji Camp" can be seen from the previous competition results. Moreover, as the last team members, these soldiers used much less time to recover their physical strength than other team members who arrived first. Now they are still dealing with the "semi-disabled" state and cannot afford to the impact of the soldiers of the "Zhennan Army" going down the mountain.
It is better to cut off one of the fingers than to hurt his ten fingers. The "Zhennan Army" made this idea, concentrating its efforts to clear out the ten soldiers of the "Shenji Camp", and then working hard to deal with the masters of the Danei and the royal palace.
Song Shirong felt a little regretful. Why did he ignore this before? If he could join forces with the soldiers of the "Shenji Camp" in advance, he would at least be able to provide him with some protection and help. But at this time the opponent's attack had begun. It was too late to think about this now. Song Shirong understood that what he had to do now was to deal with the opponent in front of him as soon as possible, and then he had time and spare energy to help others.
So he shook the wooden stick in his hand, exerted force under his feet, and rushed out with a quick step.
On the side of the "Zhennan Army", almost as the nine soldiers rushed out, the other twenty-one soldiers also moved at the same time. However, they did not rush straight to the two guards in front and the right wing, but also pulled them away from the ground, forming a protection between the big inner guards on the front and the soldiers of the "Shenji Camp" on the left wing.
Due to time issues, the twenty-one "Zhennan Army" soldiers could not completely separate the connection between the "Shenji Camp" soldiers and the Great Inner Guards, but their actions were somewhat pressure on the Great Inner Guards, and at the same time, they also bought some time for the actions of the other nine soldiers.
On the other hand, when Song Shirong Fei grabbed the soldiers of the "Zhennan Army", he suddenly found that his opponent had quickly formed a "forma". The soldiers of the "Zhennan Army" gathered together in groups of three or three, and seemed to have formed a kind of protection between them.
Song Shirong frowned. This would undoubtedly make it much more difficult for him to quickly resolve the enemy. However, he was skilled and brave. Song Shirong didn't care too much about the "format" set by his opponent. He took a wooden stick in his hand and then stabbed forward.
Song Shirong's spear was like lightning. In just a few seconds, the wooden stick wrapped in straw and cotton bags had been handed to the "enemy soldiers" in front of him. Just then, he felt a strong wind blowing.
Another soldier of the "Zhennan Army" who was responsible for flanking protection stabbed a sting and actually rushed to his side with a wooden stick.
The opponent's "sting" was extremely fierce. Judging from the distance, the opponent must have started when he just picked up the gun, otherwise it would not have been in front of him so soon. Even so, Song Shirong was still sure that he would stab the front enemy first before the "enemy army" stabbed him, but he was not sure that he could still avoid the thorn on the flank after the "enemy army" stabbed him.
This is clearly a way of fighting with both jade and stone, and one life is exchanged for another life. However, Song Shirong had no intention of dying with the "enemy". With his deep skills, he twisted his body suddenly, held the stick in one hand and knocked the long stick pierced from the flank with the tail of the stick. At the same time, he borrowed the force of the "enemy" stabbing the stick, and swung the stick, and turned around in an instant, stabbing the "enemy" on the flank.
The soldiers of the "Zhennan Army" on the flank were originally pounced on each other, pursuing speed, and originally hoped to force Song Shirong to retreat, but unexpectedly, Song Shirong did not retreat at all. Instead, he relied on his superb skills to reverse the attack direction of the long stick. At this time, he had no time to avoid it, and could only fight head-on and fight with all his strength to resist the "shot" stabbed by Song Shirong.
Song Shirong started practicing martial arts at the age of nine. He was full of martial arts master Li Feiyu's true teachings. In addition, after obtaining the royal "Four Classics of Internal Power", his skills increased greatly. Is this shot that an ordinary soldier can take? Even the carefully selected soldiers in the "Zhennan Army" can't do it.
The soldier struggled to knock down with the wooden stick in his hand, hoping to suppress the "bayonet" that was stabbed by the other party, but he felt a strong force coming from his arms, and the opponent knocked the wooden stick in his hand away. This time, his arms raised, and the empty door between his chest and abdomen was leaking, and his body was still in a forward posture, and there was no room for turning around. As long as Song Shirong gently raised the long stick in his hand, he could easily "take his life".
However, Song Shirong did not do this. Instead, he used his left foot and took a sudden step back. At the same time, he pulled out another "bayonet" that stabbed him.
The three of them on both sides set apart again. Song Shirong looked at the two "Zhennan Army" soldiers in front of him coldly. His eyes were sharp and murderous intent, but his heart was shocked.
Just now, when he was about to lift the stick and ended up with the "life" of the enemy on the flank, the "Zhennan Army" soldier who was originally on the front defense actually used the same style of play as his previous teammate and stabbed him with a gun. And from the perspective of timing, the soldier actually launched this sharp attack shortly after his teammate started to move. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to force himself back just in time before he stabbed his teammate.
However, Song Shirong knew that at that time, the stick he had stabbed at the opponent had not been taken back at all. In other words, the soldier who was defending the front was ready to pounce on the "bayonet" after stabbing out the long stick. This way of playing was to trade life for life. If the bayonet in his hand was a real bayonet, there was no doubt that the soldier would fit in and pounce on the bayonet that stabbed him, without any hesitation. What he was doing was to create an opportunity for his companions to assassinate the enemy.
It is precisely because of this determination without any hesitation that he can attack Song Shirong while changing his moves quickly, and he can also save his companions "just right" at the critical moment.
Thinking back to the wing of the "Zhennan Army" soldier who was rushing forward without considering the retreat when he stabbed the first stick, Song Shirong felt a little air conditioning on his back.
The two of them even adopted the tactic of burning both jade and stone! They didn't consider their own life and death at all. They had only one purpose, that is, to kill the "enemy" in front of them! Song Shirong had no doubt that even if the rifle in his hand was really a bayonet, the two soldiers would also pounce on them without hesitation. Even he could imagine that even if his bayonet stabbed into their chests, they would hold the bayonet tightly with their ribs and hands, just to create even a slight chance of killing the enemy for his teammates!
What team is this? How did they train before, or what did they experience before, so that they can form this kind of tragic playing style that is completely selfless and completely trusts their teammates?
Liu Zhenjun gasped violently.
Song Shirong was shocked, and he was even more shocked when he knew Liu Zhenjun.
The spike and defense between the lightning just now seemed simple, but almost exhausted all his energy. However, even so, the "enemy" in front of him was still unscathed, and he didn't even breathe!
Chapter completed!
