Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

"It depends on whether you can kill him." Gu Xingyan's tone was always indifferent, as if it was easy for Niu Dan to defeat He Si.

"Heh, General, let me tell you this in advance. I have been in the army for three years. Every day I do nothing but sleep, eat, poop, and drill. I am still not able to beat a little brat who has only learned one move from you and has only been in the army for half a month and hasn't even grown all his hair yet?"

"In this case, do you dare to accept the challenge?"

"Centurion?"

"Centurion, my words are as good as gold."

"Okay! Don't blame me if he gets killed."

"nature."

Gu Xingyan turned to Niu Dan, only to see that he had clenched his fists tightly, veins bulged on the boy's forehead, and he looked furious.

In the past half month, he and a group of new recruits were bullied almost every day, especially this guy named He Si, who targeted them everywhere.

They would either take away their food or throw a pile of dirty, smelly clothes at them and ask them to wash them. If they didn't wash them clean, they would be beaten.

They have reported the problem to their superiors many times, but the officials simply didn't care. They even complained that they were noisy and that they were incompetent.

If you have the ability, go and bully others.

Logically speaking, ordinary people like them are not qualified to enter places like the Twenty-Six Guards' Imperial Guard Camp.

But for some unknown reason, twenty days ago, they suddenly started recruiting soldiers, and anyone who was willing to come would be given five taels of silver to his family.

He and several people from the nearby village rushed over immediately after hearing the news.

But who would have known that during the past half month, the deputy commander only taught them how to run drills, and did not teach them any other military training, archery training, or swordplay.

The Farmer Prince wanted to teach the new recruits a trick to knock He Si down in front of the army. The news spread quickly like a flood. In just half an incense stick of time, all 60,000 troops had arrived.

Niu Dan pursed his lips and stood in front of Gu Xingyan. If he died, he would have to die on the battlefield, not in a fight with his own people. He couldn't understand why the general would do this.

"No confidence?" Gu Xingyan was a head taller than him.

"Great, great general..."

"Where's the momentum you had to win just now?"

"I, I... The general is a veteran. Among all of them, he has the best martial arts skills. I don't want to die like this. I want to die on the battlefield, kill a few more Zhaoguo soldiers, and avenge General Tang Shi and his dead comrades, as well as the people of Rangcheng."

Gu Xingyan patted his shoulder heavily and said, "With your determination, we will definitely win this battle."

"So, General, I, I can't fight He Si. I can't beat him."

Gu Xingyan chuckled: "You won't die. Not only will you not die, you will even beat him. Don't you want to be the centurion?"

"Of course I do."

"In that case, why waste time!" Gu Xingyan took a stance.

Liang Tianyou and General Liang stood aside. General Liang, in particular, had a headache when he saw the sloppy looks of these new recruits. These people would just give their heads to the enemy when they arrived on the battlefield.

They have never seen the power of the Ava army. When the knife is placed on their heads, let's see if they can still smile.

If he were to say, the Ninth Prince should take out that guy named He Si, give him a good beating, and beat him up so that he will behave himself and won't cause trouble again.

Liang Tianyou frowned.

Cui Jingyu also came this time. Normally, as a person from Northern Jin, he should not have come, but he asked Gu Xingyan for a human skin mask and came disguised as a guard of the East Palace.

He folded his arms across his chest, looking at the two people in the distance with a cynical look.

Liang Tianyou moved over: "The war is imminent, what is Brother Jiu doing? Brother Cui, do you understand?"

Cui Jingyu chuckled: "If we don't discipline these people, it will only delay our trip. It would be better to spend half an hour to discipline them first."

"Half an hour? Are you kidding? There are 60,000 people here, and they only listen to that old man Chen Tinghua."

"So, knowing this, why did Gu Xingyan still spend half an hour?"

"don't know."

"If you don't understand, just watch."

As they were talking, the arena had been set up and Gu Xingyan had already instructed the young man named Niu Dan.

He Si leaped up and stood firmly on the stage. He shouted, "General, you are a member of the royal family. You must keep your word. If I kill Niu Dan, not only will I not be punished, but I will be promoted to centurion."

Gu Xingyan put his hands behind his back and said, "These are my original words. Once I say something, I can't take it back."

"Okay. Come on, Niudan, hurry up. How come you have to use all your hands and feet to crawl up to the ring like a turtle?"

The ring was very high and Niu Dan was not tall, so he did not have as good skills as He Si. If he wanted to get on the ring, he could only use his hands and feet to climb up.

The crowd roared with laughter.

Some people felt sorry for Niu Dan, who was only in his teens and was going to be beaten to death by He Si before going to the battle.

Some people cursed Gu Xingyan in their hearts for not knowing how to lead troops and resorting to tricks to take the lives of the soldiers to pave the way for himself.

Could it be that Niu Dan’s life is no longer a life!

Who would want to follow a general like this?

And the dark and thin man smiled contemptuously. Did General Chen and His Royal Highness Prince Chen think too highly of Gu Xingyan? A man like him, who led troops to fight as if he were playing house, was he worthy of their being so cautious as if they were facing a powerful enemy?

Fighting a war doesn't just depend on appearance. Can you confuse the Zhao army by being handsome?

Not everyone is gay.

So he crossed his arms and looked at the stage as if he was watching a good show.

On the stage, He Si laughed and said, "Niu Dan, you can only blame yourself for trusting the wrong person. You died in my hands today. From now on, on your death anniversary every year, I will go to your grave to burn incense. Is there anything else you want to tell me about your funeral? Otherwise, tell me earlier. Do you have a mother at home? Are you married?"

"What nonsense! Let's fight sooner and end it sooner. The Zhao army won't wait for anyone."

"Hehe, stop worrying about it. Come on, let me take you there!" As soon as he said that, He Si rushed towards Niu Dan.

He was as strong as an ox, and his fists were like iron sand. If it had been the ox balls from two incense sticks ago, this one punch would have ruptured his internal organs, caused him to vomit blood and die.

But after Gu Xingyan's instruction, Niu Dan stabilized his lower body and nimbly moved to the side to avoid his punch.

He Si was shocked that he missed, so he punched again. This time he aimed at Niu Dan's abdomen. No matter how he turned sideways, he couldn't avoid the punch.

Unexpectedly, at the moment when He Si rushed over, Niu Dan stood on one foot, and with the other foot drew an arc, he moved behind He Si almost in an instant, and stretched out a palm to hit him in the lower back.

Then the foot that had just stood on swept towards his lower body.

He Si was hit hard on the lower back by a punch and felt half of his body go numb. Before he could react, he was swept by a kick and fell heavily on the ring with a loud thud. The pain was so severe that he couldn't get up even if he tried his best.

The voices of the crowd that were just booing faded away like the tide.
