Chaotic times Shura way

To embrace the wind and snow all over the world, it should be the wine tasted by lonely wild cranes.

"Your life seems to be nothing more than that sword... Apart from the sword, I have never seen you obsessed with other things."

Ouyang Shaoming's eyes fluctuated——

He has been overlooking all beings on the platform of Chunri Building for many years, but no one in Pingjing City dares to say that he understands him in the slightest.

Today, however, the person in front of him expressed his thoughts concisely and clearly.

He has power but doesn't love, has money but doesn't love, and doesn't even care about the status brought by martial arts, but in the past ten years, no one has used these to flatter and curry favor with him.

It's ridiculous that people in the world still haven't discovered the deep meaning of the sentence outside the gate of Chunri Tower that "a man's sword has no pursuit of quality and self-exaltation".

"I am obsessed with righteousness and purity, but the secular world cannot tolerate these." He stretched out his hand to touch the strings of the piano, and for the first time in his life poured out what he had pursued in his entire life——

"Only by looking at the extreme of the way of the sword can I find the perfection that I am obsessed with. Just thinking about it, I, Ouyang Shao, am famous in this world. I only live and die for the sword."

clank--

Those hands that used to only hold weapons suddenly trembled and flew on the ice strings of Wuqin.

Compared with Xiangmei people, the sound of the piano is not only three points clearer.

The qin player uses the sword as his finger and his madness as his sex. After the ronin on the top has swept the wind and snow, he sings to the moon——

The song is not about the flowers in the mirror, but about the arrogance!

Thousands of turmoil arose in Qingyuan's heart, not only for him, but also for himself——

The two of them cooking wine and playing the piano are like mirror images of each other.

He has never been on bad terms with Ouyang Shaoming. In the past eight years in Chudu, he has fought tit for tat and many times, but he wants to understand him.

Now it is discovered that some parts of their bodies are surprisingly similar.

Qin Xin controls the sword soul, the son is unparalleled in the world.

They had known each other for eight years, but it was at this moment that they really saw each other clearly.

Major General Tsing Yi was fascinated by the song, as if heaven and earth were left, only those slightly tired pupils were left, but still deeply affectionate towards something.

——Many times, people have been alone in the world of mortals for many years, and as long as they move their minds a little, they will look back and fall into a lifetime.

☆, Tightrope Walking (Repaired)

In Bai Lingfei's [-]-year life as a model worker, the position of Imperial Forest Army is enough to top the list of "the most deceitful job in life".

He even had the feeling that Jing Yan tricked him into boarding a pirate ship, but turned his back:

In the three guards of the imperial city, the Forbidden Army, the Xiaoqi Battalion, and the Yulin Army have been fighting extremely fiercely for many years.The Imperial Forest and the Forbidden Army were built in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China. The former was the training ground for the children of military officers of the imperial court, and has always followed the general style of "recognizing heroes by strength"; Victory over the three guards.The forces of the two guards were deeply rooted in the imperial city, and they were highly valued by successive emperors of Chu.

Xiaoqiying is a rising star among the three guards, but after the current emperor ascended the throne, he immediately used Xiaoqi to command and wipe out dissidents, including the royal family kings with the same surname, which made the whole court tremble.In the 30 years since then, the Xiaoqi Battalion has often been entrusted with secret important tasks by the emperor, just like a spy in front of the imperial court, suppressing the other two armies everywhere, and has the potential to surpass the three guards of the imperial city.

The court banquet assassination case brought the good days of the Xiaoqi battalion to an end. The deputy commander was pulled off his horse, and other important generals were thrown into the palace immediately, and no soldiers of the Xiaoqi battalion dared to raise their heads and walk across the Imperial City Square.

The master of the Yujian Sect was finally called into the Yulin Army by the emperor, appointed as the guard of Chengguang Palace, and took the position of general in the imperial city closest to the emperor's seat.The Yulin family suddenly gained the upper hand in the battle of the three guards.

It was in this turmoil that he took over the nightshade pattern military badge:

He can't make mistakes in every step he takes in the imperial city, and he can't say a word when he encounters hatred from the Xiaoqi battalion and the white eyes of the imperial guards.Every day, tens of thousands of eyes in Pingjing are staring at the master of the Yujian sect - he bears the aura left by the founding marshal, and his actions are inseparable from the Southern Chu royal family.

Fortunately, he had rescued the Imperial Forest Army in Qinfeng Palace, and was also nailed through the bones because of them.Thinking of this life-saving grace, all his comrades treated him very kindly, and he was not depressed to death in the palace.

While secretly lamenting the miserable life of selling himself to the crown prince, he stepped into the Chengguang Hall where the Emperor’s Palace is located——

Jing Zhuo was injured by the evil inner strength of the Ming religion, but the imperial physician was not familiar with martial arts, and the treatment had not been effective for a long time.One of his duties every day is to expel Qi and detoxify the emperor until he is completely healed.

"Your Majesty/The evil energy in the body is gone. In the days to come, as long as you follow the imperial physician's prescription and strengthen the foundation and nourish the vitality, the viscera will be refilled with energy. In less than half a month, I believe you will be able to go to court and discuss politics, and be as strong as ever."

Jing Zhuo'an sat in the emperor's tent, opened his eyes and glanced at Bai Lingfei, and suddenly squinted and smiled:

"With Aiqing's skill, it's no wonder that he can protect the prince's return to court without any obstacles."

On his first day in office, the emperor carefully questioned Jing Yan about his journey back to Beijing.However, unexpectedly, when he heard that his son had been ambushed and assassinated repeatedly, he just listened quietly, not only did not order a thorough investigation, but he never mentioned it again.

At this moment, seeing Dijun talking about this matter with a smile, Bai Lingfei knew that it was not simple, so he replied calmly on the surface:

"The martial arts of the last general are all cultivated by the mentor, so I should use Master Bi as a model and devote myself to His Majesty and the Tian family."

He speaks cleverly, neither takes credit, nor does he summarize it with "Tianjia" without any trace, and avoids talking about the crown prince.

"You are a very smart person." The emperor straightened out the creases on the dragon robe one by one, and there was some unknown coldness in his words, "It's just that you didn't appear at the right time."

Bai Lingfei was standing in a corner of the hall, quickly calculating and trying to figure out the emperor's deep meaning in his mind, when suddenly there was a message from outside the hall that a knight general was escorted by the soldiers of the imperial army, entered the hall in a state of embarrassment, and knelt down in front of the emperor's tent.

Bai Lingfei didn't dare to say another word indiscriminately. The knight who was escorted to the palace raised his head and recognized the Nine Profound Sword worn by his waist. His eyes immediately filled with cruelty, and the young man stared coldly. Can freeze in place, waiting for the emperor's instructions.

"Originally, I thought that the master of Yujianmen's move was enough to make the crown prince unable to advance or retreat. Unexpectedly, after 400 years of hiding in the world, Jiuxuan was actually able to be found by him back to the capital of Chu."

With a wave of Jing Zhuo's left hand, the eunuch who was personally serving in the palace immediately stepped forward, filled the wine glass in his hand, and placed it lightly in front of the brave general.

The general trembled all over, and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty!"

Jing Zhuo didn't look directly at the general Xiaoqi, but just took the jug from the eunuch, and smiled at the young man, "Bai Aiqing, you have defeated my army very hard."

Before Jing Yan left the capital, he had already firmly restrained the crown prince's power in the court, but Jing Yan put all his eggs in one basket to form the front wolf cavalry, and actually took the risk of losing power, went to find the master of the Yujian sect, and went away to Pingjing for nearly half a year .

On the day when the crown prince returned, he could have issued the last decree to cut off the military power symbolized by the tiger talisman, together with the crown prince's title, from Jing Yan's hand——

It's a pity that in the end it was Bai Lingfei who accompanied him back to Beijing.

The master of the Yujian Sect appeared in Pingjing, mobilizing all the people, holding the Nine Mysteries and controlling Yuying in front of the whole city, invisibly blocking all the killings for Jingyan.

Even now, Jing Yan is supervising the country on behalf of the monarch, calling the wind and rain in the court and the opposition, and his influence is several times stronger than when he left Beijing.

"Your Majesty! I have been loyal to you for many years without any second thoughts! You must never listen to the words of the courtier—"

"I have always felt that the voice of the Xiaoqiying camp is too noisy all these years." Jing Zhuo turned his ear, grasping the emperor's crown pearl on the dragon bed with two fingers, "Wu Pingkang, you should learn to be like Bai Aiqing, when the time is right, Silence is."

Bai Lingfei pursed his lips tightly, trying his best not to show the horror in his heart——

He will never naively think that this sentence is the emperor's words of approval for him. In the eyes of the emperor, the three guards of the imperial city, no matter what department, are just the existence of praise and evenness!

He can use the Royal Forest Army to suppress the Xiaoqi Battalion, and he can do the same to make himself completely disappear from the imperial city!

"However, I also understand that you are not good at keeping silent." The emperor sighed regretfully: "Since you have served me for many years and have eliminated many people who don't need to stay in the world for me, I will not be harsh on you. I hereby forgive you— —”

Wu Pingkang kowtowed violently, not daring to stop until the blood flowed from his forehead: "Thank you Your Majesty for your grace! Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"You also say you don't understand silence." Jing Zhuo smiled, looking down at the general who thought he had escaped the catastrophe and thanked the emperor for his kindness. Say no more."

The general was struck by a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and instantly froze in place.

Jing Zhuo waved his hand to order, and the eunuch forcefully poured the life-threatening wine into Wu Pingkang's mouth!

The young man watched him dying and calling for help. After a few blinks, the general Xiaoqi's ears and eyes were bleeding, his voice was exhausted, and he collapsed.

——This is the emperor recorded in the history books?Between talking and laughing, life and death are taken away, the emperor who wiped out a life in an instant!

"Aiqing, you spent many days with Zhen'er on the way to Beijing—" The emperor leisurely turned to Bai Lingfei, and the eunuch bowed forward, offering another wine glass with both hands.

"In your opinion, what kind of person is the crown prince?"

The glass was full of wine, Dijun readily stretched out his hand, and handed the glass to Bai Lingfei.

Bai Lingfei stared fixedly at the wine glass, covering his hands behind his back, even his nails were deeply embedded in his palms.

The general's corpse was still warm, the young man suppressed the trembling in his heart and replied in a low voice:

"His Majesty the Prince is majestic and magnificent, and has an extraordinary bearing. He has indeed inherited His Majesty's demeanor."

"Sure enough." The emperor laughed heartily, and after a while he shook his head and sighed: "Do you know what happened between General Bi and Emperor Huaiyang back then?"

Bai Lingfei forced himself to look away from the wine glass, looking straight at Dijun, not knowing what answer to give——

Regarding the God of War worshiped by the whole world, everything he knows is actually no different from that of ordinary people.Before Biyang passed away, he did not leave a single word to his disciples, nor did his master mention it to him for many years——the only thing left to him by the famous master for generations is the oath of apprenticeship that strictly prohibits disciples from going down the mountain to become officials That's all.

The emperor's eyes changed again and again, as if he understood something, he pondered for a moment, and finally sent the white jade cup forward.

The young man bit his lower lip, and finally took it with both hands, raised his head and drank the wine.

"You are the last dangerous chess game for him to turn around—" The emperor, who blinked and killed his subordinates lightly, said to the young man: "However, no matter whose chess game is played, it must be used by me in the end."

Bai Lingfei remained silent, but became more and more dazed——

The feeling of the poisoned wine breaking the throat and stomach has not been there for a long time.

Jing Zhuo stroked his forehead and smiled lightly, and with one hand, the eunuch offered another cup to his palm.He filled a cup and drank it contentedly.

——Is the wine non-toxic? !

"I know, Bai Aiqing can understand these words, smart people don't need that cup."

After making hundreds of turns, he finally returned to the world before the gate of hell.

At that moment, Bai Lingfei almost lost his strength and fell to the ground - it was because of his extremely deep cultivation and his foot was well tied, so that he would not miss the bottom in front of the emperor.

"Thank you Your Majesty for giving me the wine, the last general will definitely live up to the grace of God in the future."

"If I need Ai Qing, I will send someone to find you."

Jing Zhuo nodded with a smile, and finally issued the edict that the young man most desired: "Aiqing, step down."

Bai Lingfei tried his best to ignore the tempting idea of ​​using lightness skills to escape from the palace, retreated to the gate of the palace, and heard the emperor's chuckle before saying:

"There is one sentence you said wrong—"

"Compared to me, he is better than me."

The door opened, Bai Lingfei was stunned, the words were still lingering in his ears, but in front of his eyes was the crown prince's extremely cool and fierce face.

Jing Yan, who came to visit the emperor, looked past the young man, touched the emperor in the emperor's tent lightly, and then glanced at the pale Bai Lingfei:

What’s wrong with you? ——The crown prince asked with his eyes.

I just sold myself to you, not to your father; Your Highness's family is unfortunate, please solve it yourself - Bai Lingfei answered him with a blank stare.

The young man smiled in the blink of an eye, and saluted Jing Jing with standard indifference:

"I have seen His Royal Highness, the last general will leave first."

Three days later, in the imperial school grounds outside the city, the finalists of the current martial arts champion lined up, standing silently in front of the observation tower, listening to the last lecture before the selection——

"Even if a person in martial arts has reached the ultimate level, what he seeks is to respect his teacher, be loyal to the emperor, and protect his family and country. This is the integrity of a martial artist."

The flag of the Sigualing Army is flying in the middle of the school grounds. Headed by Yinglong and Nakano, the two elite soldiers of land and water, the Eighth Army lined up neatly on the south side of the school grounds. They all shook hands into fists and put them across their chests. Crown Prince A salutes.

The emperor who was assassinated still needed to rest, so he was absent from the selection, and the marshal Jing Yan presided over the examination on his behalf.On the watchtower, Ye Mingqin, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Wang Fan, the official secretary, Xu Ru, General Counselor of the Eighth Army, Hong Da, Commander of the Nakano Army, and Qingyuan, Commander of the Yinglong Army are also listed in the examiner's table.

The kings of Anqing and Chichuan sat on the side seats on the left and right of the watchtower, and Princess Yiya was seated beside Jing Yan by the Crown Prince Tehuai.

Those instructions were firm and resolute, resounding throughout the wilderness school:

"In the future, on the battlefield, weapons can be discarded, but the martial arts festival must not be lost-I hope you will remember that the cold and heat of the day are the same, and the original heart of persevering and practicing art."

"Here!" The Eighth Army of Southern Chu shouted in unison.

After the left and right battalions of the Imperial Forest Army made their final preparations, Jing Yan personally rang the gong, and the competition officially began.

The examination was first screened in various places, and many sons of princes and generals were shortlisted for the imperial examination. However, unexpectedly, Jing Huankang, the son of Chichuan Prince, won the first place in Xiangzhou's first examination in Xiangzhou. This matter immediately caused a sensation in the land of the two lakes, making this imperial test match even more eye-catching.

The imperial test is divided into three rounds: fighting, weapon battle, riding and shooting, and finally the examiner will personally ask about the art of war and military strategy.

The guards of the right battalion are responsible for monitoring any signs of cheating or fouls, while the left battalion is responsible for pre-match inspections of weapons, horses, bow targets, etc., and guards the perimeter during the game to prevent sudden changes.

In the first fighting battle, all the candidates had gone all out. Every move in the arena was a close-to-hand fight without leaving any room for measure.

Jing Huankang won the first game without any suspense, and knocked down his opponent who was unable to react as well as him.

This fight drew applause from the audience, and the King Chichuan at the banquet was also grinning from ear to ear, and gladly accepted the congratulatory words from all parties.

Qing Yuan frowned, Hong Da also shook his head and sighed.

Yi Ya saw it in her eyes, and turned to Jing Yan, who was holding her jaw shut, and asked, "Is brother Huankang really that powerful? How does Yun Jing compare to him?"

Jing Yan still kept his eyes on the school field, the soldiers of the Zuo Army were setting up the arena, preparing for the next weapon battle, and Bai Lingfei was being inspected by Zuo Yingfeng for the ten kinds of weapons, including swords, guns and halberds, for candidates to choose.

He leaned close to Yiya's ear and explained in a low voice: "He is indeed better than Chen Bin, but Chen Bin saw that he was the precious son of King Chichuan, and kept his hands away from him several times in secret, but he caught Chen Bin's mistake, He knocked the opponent out of the ring with heavy hands. Although Jing Huankang won, he lost because he was too aggressive and narrow-minded." The examiners in the stands thought he and Qing Yuan were the best in martial arts. Knowing that although the other candidates are excellent, the champion of Wu is just a dispute between Jing Huankang and Yun Jing.

"Yun Jing is also very average in all aspects, but all candidates can't match his response. For a person like him, using a sword can best highlight his own advantages." He smiled slightly, and raised his chin to signal to Yi Ya: "Jing Huankang also uses swords, if they match up in the end, you will have a good show to watch."

Yi Ya has a close relationship with Jing Yan, knowing his identity as the heir of Sword Madness, she naturally has no doubts about this analysis.She blinked to look at the field and saw that Bai Lingfei had replaced one of the stainless steel long swords on the weapon stand, and a soldier had replaced another sword. She couldn't hold back her curiosity, and grabbed the edge of Jing Yan's armor and asked in a low voice: "Lingfei What's wrong big brother?"

Jing Yan was annoyed and amused at this royal girl who was gentle on the surface but quick-witted and changeable in reality, "In this school field, Ling Fei is an expert among the experts. , can’t pass him.”

After all the weapons have been inspected, Counselor Xu Ru will announce the result of the draw for the next match. The spectators and all the candidates are discussing:

The last match of this round will be Jing Huankang and Yun Jing going sword to sword!

At the beginning of the second round, everyone on the school field felt a little breathless:

Candidates are more eager to win than in the first round, fighting with weapons is different from bare hands, after many competitions, many people were carried away from the field with blood spattering.

Finally, it was the last round of the match, and Jing Huankang stepped out leisurely, without being courteous, and picked up the sword directly.

The soldier who handed the sword to Jing Huankang retreated to the side, but accidentally knocked down the weapon rack. Seeing that the son of Chichuan King was staring at him viciously, returning all kinds of weapons to their original positions tremblingly, he quickly returned to the team.

Yun Jing came to the weapon stand, picked up the only remaining long sword on the stand, and walked to the center of the ring while holding his breath.

Seeing that the royal family and nobles only applaud Jing Huankang, Yiya can't stand it anymore——

A person of ordinary background is in Pingjing City, just like Yun Jing in front of me. On the ring alone, he is fighting against the powerful forces in Pingjing.

"If they fight against Big Brother Qingyuan, Big Brother Lingfei and you respectively, what will be the result?"

Jing Yan saw the two people clasping fists to salute each other in the arena, and Heng Jian made a formation in front of him, and answered her without thinking:

"Qingyuan is a person who gets stronger when he meets the strong. There is no general in the army who dares to say that he can defeat him. It is estimated that he can take them all at once within twenty moves. If I use the Heartless Sword, it will be within three moves. It's something." He thought for a while, then smiled and whispered to Yiya: "If it's Lingfei, they probably can make a move."

Yiya's eyes widened: "There is only one trick? Why?"

"After one move, the sword is gone, so what are you going to use to fight him? If that guy is serious, they don't even need to draw the sword, and just settle the matter."

Outside the arena, King Anqing personally ordered that Bai Lingfei and General Youying would monitor the arena together in the second round of the only sword competition.

A top-ranked general from the sixth rank has no such qualifications, but there are few in the army without any objections:

Although the days of working together are short, the Imperial Forest Army has already deeply admired him as a man. Among generals, heroes are known by their strength. Bai Lingfei is one of the few generals who won the hearts of the people as soon as he entered the army.What's more, he is the sect master of the holy place of swordsmanship in the world, and he is highly regarded by the emperor, so it is reasonable to personally supervise this sword fight.

As everyone expected, Jing Huankang made the first move, stabbing Yun Jing under the threat.

The two swords clashed for the first time, and the clear sound shook the school grounds——

Yun Jing blocked Jing Huankang's hot move, and at the moment when the sword's momentum became immutable, he dexterously turned his wrist, and the original move actually slashed at his lower body!

The two figures fought fiercely, surpassing any previous competition.The blade has no eyes, the arena is also full of dangers, the sound of gasping in the spectator seats is constant, and King Chichuan is also extremely anxious, fearing that something will happen to his only son.

In Bai Lingfei's eyes, it wasn't that Yun Jing's swordsmanship was too good, but that Jing Huankang used too much force and was more eager to win, messing up his position. This noble young man was only a few dozen moves away from defeat.

He looked back, Jing Yan was still silent, and did not intend to end the imperial sword competition ahead of time.

Yun Jing's sword moves are extremely fast, Jing Huankang has had a hard time coping with them, often every time Yun Jing strikes a sword, Yun Jing will retaliate with two moves, and he has not been able to seize the initiative since the fight.However, he is the son of the prince, how can he endure this defeat?Immediately made up his mind, he flicked the sword flower a few times, and with all his strength, he broke into Yun Jing's sword move:

Damn it!If you dare to fight against me, you must destroy your sword!

The levels of the two were not far apart, but Jing Huankang became ruthless, and the momentum of the sword suddenly increased, forcing Yun Jing to retreat seven steps in a row!

Everyone in the spectator seats applauded and applauded, only Yiya secretly worried about Yun Jing, and desperately grabbed Jing Yan's hand, fearing that they would meet each other in blood in the next moment.

Yun Jing retreated to the corner of the ring with only a short distance, and the outcome was hanging by a thin line.

"Clang!"

When the two swords clashed, Yun Jing could withstand Jing Huankang's sharp move purely by intuition, but the long sword in his hand suddenly broke in the middle, and half of the broken sword flew towards his face!

Jing Huankang was terrified, once he made this sword move, it was difficult to take it back, the blade of the long sword stuck to the opponent's wrist, and continued to stab upwards, pointing directly at Yun Jing's key acupoint!

The school grounds screamed, and Yiya was so frightened that she turned her face away, unable to bear to see the horrific scene that followed.

☆, school field match (repaired)

"Clang!"

The two swords collided, and the long sword in Yun Jing's hand suddenly snapped in the middle. Jing Huankang was horrified, but the sword's momentum was difficult to withdraw.

The school grounds screamed, and Yiya was so frightened that she turned her face away, unable to bear to see the horrific scene that followed.

Jing Yan and Qing Yuan each held their swords, ready to strike, but suddenly heard two "ding, ding":

A ray of finger wind penetrated between the two of them, first hitting the fast-moving broken sword, and then smashing the steel weapon in Jing Huankang's hand, saving Yun Jing from death.

The two people in the arena were shocked, they looked at the half-cut sword in their hands, and at the young general who had rushed to the field.

"Are you two okay?"

Yun Jing bowed and thanked him, "The grassroots are fine, thank you Major General for helping me."

Jing Huankang has a noble status, and in his father's fiefdom, he has never saluted a sixth-rank young general.But at this moment, he had no choice but to withdraw his arrogance and coughed: "...I'm fine."

——This person is no small matter. With a flick of a finger, he destroyed two refined swords of the Imperial Forest Army.

Bai Lingfei picked up the broken sword on the ground, and exchanged glances with Jing Yan on the stage inadvertently:

What Yun Jing used was by no means the sword prepared by the Imperial Forest Army—someone secretly dropped the sword after he checked the weapon.And after the duel started, the only chance for the opponent to fish in troubled waters was when the soldier knocked down the weapon rack.

While thinking, he walked to the stands and knelt down:

"This accident happened because of the lack of procuratorial weapons and negligence. Your Highness and King Anqing should be punished."

What kind of person is King Anqing, and he knows that there must be someone outside the arena playing tricks, and Bai Lingfei is by no means a thing in the pool.

He was thinking in his heart, and he said calmly to the subordinate who took the initiative to plead guilty: "You saved the two candidates just now, and your merits and demerits are equal. Let the nephew decide this matter."

——The hot potato was thrown to him in the end, his fourth uncle was really interesting.

"Since Uncle Huang said so, ten shi will be deducted from your annual salary as punishment."

Yi Ya used the movement of pulling her hair to cover her lips, and said in a low voice, "Brother Emperor! Brother Lingfei is not at fault, so don't punish him."

Jing Yan also covered it up by lowering his head and coughing, and answered her angrily: "Xiaotian, if you take care of food and drink, what will this guy spend? If he has no money, can't he just ask Qingyuan to get it?"

He returned to his original state, and a military order ordered him to retreat, signaling to continue the imperial examination.

Bai Lingfei looked at him suspiciously, but Jing Yan shook his head very lightly.

Those with subtle thoughts can more or less guess that this matter has something to do with King Chichuan.Bai Lingfei had just joined the Imperial Forest Army, and faced with the wrestling of various factions, he was as dangerous as walking on a tightrope. If he were to investigate this matter again, it would be like pushing him off the tightrope—it was only after he broke through the iron shoes that he found out. Master Yujian doesn't want to lose so quickly.

Both Jing Huankang and Yun Jing lost their weapons, and there were only two long swords left on the weapon rack, but they were scrapped one after the other in the competition.

In the spectator seats, King Chichuan suddenly threw his sword into the field, Jing Huankang took it, and shouted back with joy:

"Thank you, my son!"

——This sword cuts iron like mud. It was a divine object bestowed by the late emperor. Even my father would not dare to use it too much. This time he even used his treasure. mind?

Seeing this scene, Yiya pursed her thin lips, feeling angry in her heart——

The rules of the imperial examination clearly stated that all the weapons used by the candidates were provided by the imperial army. King Chichuan's move was clearly partial to his son and disregarded the rules of the competition.

The general of the right battalion who supervised the field also looked embarrassed, but the king of Chichuan had a high position in the court, and he didn't dare to go straight to the tiger for a while.

Yun Jing seemed to have expected such a situation long ago, smiled freely, and silently walked towards the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army in the surveillance field, intending to borrow another long sword for use.

However, regardless of whether there is anyone who is willing to fight against King Chichuan and help him, even if he can borrow a long sword and face the royal sword in Jing Huankang's hand, there is no suspense about the outcome of this competition.

"Yun Jing, come here."

The audience was astonished, Yun Jing turned his head in surprise, if it wasn't for Jing Yan watching him on stage, he would have thought he had heard wrong——

In Pingjing, it is rare for an ordinary court official to surrender his status to talk with poor scholars on an eye level, let alone the Crown Prince of Southern Chu in front of him?

"Just now there was an accident with the weapon, it wasn't a crime of war—" Jing Yan held his chin with his fingers, and said calmly.

He took off the long sword that was inserted obliquely at his waist, and threw the sword at Yun Jing like King Chichuan:

"This sword has been with me on the battlefield for many years. Although it was not given by my father, it is better than ordinary swords. It is just right for you."

Not only Yun Jing, but everyone else couldn't believe their eyes——

Who is this Yun Jing, who is so favored by the crown prince who is under one person and above ten thousand?

It turned out that Jing Huankang, who was very high-spirited, was not in a good mood either—excuse the crown prince for borrowing the sword himself, why is this guy!

Jing Yan secretly laughed, the phrase "better than ordinary sword blades" was only meant to deceive people.Although the sword he lent to Yun Jing was not the Unfeeling Sword, he dared to assert that even if the precious blade in Jing Huankang's hand was counted, the only one in the field who could break the sword was the Bai Lingfei's Jiuxuan is gone.Thinking of this, he gave the young man a mocking look——

Show me something, don't flick my baby off with a flick of your finger.

Bai Lingfei also responded with his eyes - don't pretend anymore, if it's so easy to waste, would you lend it to others?

Yiya was watching them, looking at me and you, but she couldn't figure it out.

"Thank you Your Highness for borrowing the sword, Yun Jing will definitely remember it in my heart!"

The two were helped by King Chichuan and Jing Yan respectively, and they returned to the ring to start the competition.

The sword bestowed by the first emperor to King Chichuan is definitely a treasure among swords, but Jing Yan's Hengji sword was the first time he led the army as a marshal three years ago. What is given to him is the difference between treasures and holy objects.

Jing Huankang suffered from the dark loss of the weapon, and because he saw Yun Jing's aggressiveness and discouraged, he finally gave Yun Jing a clever move to resist the key point on his back.

After many hardships, Yun Jing finally won this match.

Jing Huankang felt even more dejected, there was no place to put his face on, and he couldn't blame the unfairness of the weapons-could he poke the nose of the current crown prince and scold him?What's more, it was the father who broke the rules and borrowed the sword at the beginning. Didn't he shoot himself in the foot with a stone?

Fortunately, in the riding and shooting session that he was best at, he beat Yun Jing with an overwhelming number of targets, and finally got a sigh of relief - it seems that the key to deciding the outcome with that guy is the question and answer of the art of war.

On the school grounds, Wang Fan, a doctor in charge of the Ministry of War, was the first to pose the question:

"Suppose you are leading fifty warships of the Yinglong Army to fight, but the enemy chains the river on the canal. May I ask you two, what is the strategy to defeat the enemy?"

Jing Huankang couldn't help raising his lips and smiling. There are many rivers in Southern Chu, which shows the status of the navy in combat.Regarding the strategy of water warfare, he had practiced it many times before preparing for the imperial test, so he was able to answer fluently immediately:

"Water warfare must first strive to go down the river and fight against the wind. If the enemy really uses the chains that lock the river, as long as I seize the upstream position, I can use the boats to go down the river and hit the chains with the boat to break the blockade. Then Then use the walking boat as the vanguard, taking advantage of its small and lightweight advantage, to contain the opponent's heaviest building ships. When the time is right, use our army's fastest Meng Chong to break up the formation of the remaining enemy fleet first, Then send the whole Louchuan team into battle to encircle and wipe them out, this is exactly the method used by the former general Wu Mingche to face Huajiao and smash the opponent's Louchuan fleet."

Wang Fan's eyes showed admiration, and after pondering for a while, he asked again: "If our army is in the position against the current, what should we do?"

Jing Huankang didn't think about this beforehand, and was immediately speechless when asked.At this time Yun Jing respectfully replied:

"Both Louchuan and Mengchong are huge ships, and it is difficult to charge against the upstream, so you should take the lead in the battle, order the sailors to go upstream, let the soldiers on the boat hold long axes to cut off the iron chains, and at the same time, the archers shoot and kill the enemy's buildings. The sailors on the ship. Once the iron chain is broken, the enemy's tall ships without sailors will surely go down the current, and our Paimeng rushes to catch up with the current, creating an advantage along the current, and defeating the opponent's heavy ships. At this time The enemy army must send the rest of the ships to come to rescue, and our water boats can wait on the river and wipe them out one by one."

This time the response was smooth and natural, which shows that Yun Jing is really good at adapting to changes.

Wang Fan was also satisfied with the performance of the two candidates, so he turned to Qingyuan and said, "I would like to ask the major general to comment on the strategies they offered."

——Qing Yuan is the best navy commander in the Eighth Army today, so he was able to command the Yinglong Navy as a major general, which was unprecedented in the history of Southern Chu for a hundred years. No one present was more qualified than him to judge the performance of the two.

"It's really rare to see the two men's meticulous thinking and extraordinary strategy in using troops." Qingyuan's tone was still tepid, but the general's demeanor in his words broke everyone's hearts: "The confrontation between the two armies, the right time, Geographical advantages and human harmony are indispensable, and both of them have mentioned this, the wind is the right time, occupying the upper class is the geographical advantage, and disturbing the opponent's army is the harmony of people."

"However, in water warfare, to completely destroy the opponent's combat power, we must use fire to attack. Only this can cause the most serious damage to the ship, and make the navy's navy slump. It is difficult to cause future troubles. Ignite a few Meng Chong and go down the water, which can affect the opponent's entire formation. At that time, you can calmly break through the refinement with walking boats, go downstream, guard the downstream, and use your own building, boat, machine and catapult as support to destroy all enemies. A fish that slipped through the sea of ​​fire."

Both Jing Huankang and Yun Jing were dumbfounded - this was the first time they had heard of such a bold tactic.

"If our army is against the current and the wind, we can pretend to be afraid of the enemy's rout and flee, and lure the opponent to cross the chain of our own river to attack downstream. At this time, our army will reorganize its formation, and the main fleet will spread out to both sides of the river, leaving a few ships behind. When the fire was ignited in the center of the river, the enemy army would throw themselves into a trap and crash into the sea of ​​flames. At this time, their heavy building boats and Meng Chong could not be spared. We must plan to abandon the ship somewhere upstream and land on the shore. As long as our army leaves soldiers in ambush on the shore and kills them one by one when they land, not only can we wipe out the entire army of the opponent, but we can also capture a large number of vehicles for our own use. "

"In a real battlefield confrontation, many practical factors must be considered, let alone stick to the rules. These understandings, after being honed on the battlefield, will be understood by the two talents."

Hearing this, the audience already admired this major general. Only now did they know that the youngest commander in history, Ying Long, did have the strength to match him.

Bai Lingfei was stunned and sighed:

This major general seemed upright and upright, but it turned out that they were all wolves in sheep's clothing to deceive people, and they were the kind that would kill people without paying for their lives--the one who is close to vermilion is red, and the one who is close to ink is black, it is really true.

Yiya's pretty face is full of bright smiles, she has long regarded Qingyuan as her half-brother, and she only hopes that one day the army will recognize his brilliant achievements, so that he will no longer be despised and looked down upon by noble generals——

Unexpectedly, at this unexpected moment, she would finally be able to fulfill her wish and see with her own eyes that this rare gem was cherished by others.

Although Jing Yan had no expression on his face, the relief in his heart was no different from that of Yi Ya.

No one understands Qingyuan's ability better than him, what he deserves is far more than that.Fortunately, this comrade-in-arms brother who has experienced life and death with him can finally fight for what he deserves today.

The second question was asked by Ye Mingqin, Minister of the Ministry of War. The content involved the current method of expanding the source of troops. Both Jing Huankang and Yun Jing answered clearly, and responded appropriately to Ye Shangshu's questioning.

"Does Your Highness have any more exam questions?" At the end of the question and answer, Ye Shangshu asked Jing Yan for the last questions.

There was no sound on the school field again——the imperial examination is coming to an end, Jing Huankang and Yun Jing have their own strengths, and it is hard to tell which is better in the eyes of everyone, so the last question asked by His Royal Highness is the current Wu Jing. The key to the selection of champions.

Yiya, Qingyuan and Bai Lingfei, who knew him well, all showed attention on their faces——

With Jing Yan's unconventional character, this question must be unpredictable, and it is the most tricky test for the two of them.

Under the gaze of thousands of pairs of eyes on the school field, Jing Yan smiled and asked leisurely:

"in case
