Long live the general

It snowed heavily for two days, and after the snow melted, it turned into hard ice again.

The training in the barracks continued as usual, and Qiu Hongguang's injury healed. He rejoined the drill, and then he found that Huo Yi hadn't come to inspect their training for several days.

This kind of situation is very rare. Huo Yi attaches great importance to military drills, and he will come for any training.

Probably because of the chat with Huo Yi that time, Qiu Hongguang felt a little curious out of his dissatisfaction with Huo Yi.The things he said, his cold fingers and the burn on his wrist.It would be great if they had a chance to chat again, Qiu Hongguang thought so occasionally, but Huo Yi rarely came to the barracks after that.

Thinking about it, Qiu Hongguang stepped on his opponent's shoulder, swung his waist, and slammed down his long legs, kicking several soldiers around him one by one.

They are doing battle exercises. The training content of the frontier troops includes military formations, horseback riding, tactics, equipment, endurance, etc. In addition to group drills, the training situation also includes hunting and fighting.Today's battle is not very standardized, it's a bit to let everyone relax and connect with each other.The captain in charge of the training asked them to fight against each other with bare hands. Qiu Hongguang fought from morning to night without losing a single defeat.

Later, the rules of the battle were completely abandoned. Qiu Hongguang stood in the middle of the school field and said, "Let's have some fun!"

The captain graciously agreed.

As the defender, Qiu Hongguang waited for the attacker to come up to challenge him, and there was no problem with one-to-many.

They also pressed a few copper coins each, and those who had no money pressed wine or other things. The atmosphere was extremely lively.

At the end of the fight, Qiu Hongguang had won more than 30 copper coins, five pots of rice wine, two pairs of socks and hair bands, and ate half of the cake. All the soldiers admired this powerful scout captain and applauded.

As dusk approached, no one dared to challenge Qiu Hongguang anymore. He stood in the center wearing a thin short jacket and no armor. His solid muscles were very conspicuous, with wide shoulders and thin waist, straight legs, and an amazing momentum.

Qiu Hongguang was tall and tall, so he saw Huo Yi who had just walked into the barracks at a glance.

It's almost Chinese New Year, and Huo Yi is extremely busy, dealing with all kinds of complicated affairs in Xihebian County every day.He is the kind of person who doesn't like to do things. Once he gets a job, he must try his best to do his best, and he cannot tolerate mistakes or rework.But this kind of request is limited to himself, because after being in the officialdom for a long time, he found that not everyone wants to do things well.

Delaying and perfunctory, evading responsibility, and fooling around are the attitudes of many Dai Viet officials.

In contrast, he felt that Li Yi, the sheriff of Fangbian County next door, was really a breath of fresh air.Li Yi is unpopular. Apart from his bad personality, maybe his overly diligent work attitude is also one of the reasons.

The captain came to explain today's training situation. Huo Yi sounded very interesting and said, "Then let's continue."

"It's over." The captain praised and said, "Qiu Scout is almost invincible, and the current junior is really formidable."

Huo Yi came over, because the captain's words focused on Qiu Hongguang in the center of the school field, Qiu Hongguang's tall figure was very conspicuous, Huo Yi smiled, turned his head and said something to the captain.

Seeing Huo Yi looking over, Qiu Hongguang straightened up involuntarily, feeling nervous.He stood there in a daze for a while, feeling that he was simply sick.

Why should he care about that sheriff's gaze!

However, Qiu Hongguang still couldn't help staring at him. After not seeing him for a few days, the sheriff still looked calm, as if the sky would not move him, but at this moment his eyes looked a little tired.

Then he saw Huo Yi turned his head and said a few words to the captain, and walked over with a smile. The captain nodded, showing a very respectful look.Qiu Hongguang's brain became hot, and he suddenly said loudly: "I want to challenge the county sheriff!"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was silent.

The lieutenant broke out in cold sweat in an instant. He was furious, rushed over and reprimanded: "I really don't know the heights of heaven and earth, and dare to offend the Lord Sheriff! You boy kneel down to receive punishment for me, just after being beaten..."

He was still thinking about how to punish Qiu Hongguang so that this matter could be suppressed, but Qiu Hongguang said blankly, "I didn't offend the sheriff, I just wanted to compare with him."

"Better than your mother..." The captain was dizzy with anger, before he could utter the swear words, Huo Yi patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, young man."

Huo Yi turned to look at Qiu Hongguang: "Do you want to compare with me?"

Qiu Hongguang nodded.

"Then you should play with Xiaoman first." Huo Yi smiled and pushed Huo Xiaoman out, and said, "According to your rules, I will bet like them."

He reached out to touch his sleeve pocket, found an empty hand, was stunned for a moment, and said to Huo Xiaoman nonchalantly: "Put five copper coins... no, two."

Huo Xiaoman: "..."

The owner is too poor!Or... the Patriarch doesn't believe him?

Huo Xiaoman had an immature baby face, and the helmet only reached Qiu Hongguang's shoulders. Qiu Hongguang gave him a disgusted look and said, "He's much shorter than me."

Huo Xiaoman said expressionlessly: "I am better than you."

Huo Yi made a final decision: "You bet."

Qiu Hongguang: "...I'll bet all of this." He pointed to the chips he had won before.

Huo Yi didn't feel ashamed in the slightest that the dignified sheriff threw two coppers: "No, you just throw two, it's only fair."

Huo Xiaoman entered the school grounds and stood opposite Qiu Hongguang.

Both of them were suffocating in their hearts, wanting to prove themselves.

Huo Xiaoman said: "It's no fun to fight with bare hands, let's use a weapon."

Qiu Hongguang nodded: "Yes, I will use a knife, how about you?"

"Sword." Huo Xiaoman pulled out the sword on his body, it was a green steel epee with a very bright blade.

Soon someone brought Qiu Hongguang's knife. This knife was not a standard weapon issued by the army, but he brought it back from home, and it was worth thousands of dollars.

However, Qiu Hongguang has no idea about money, it doesn't matter if it's a thousand pieces of gold or a thousand pieces of gold, he just likes this knife.

The two of them actually wanted to fight, and the atmosphere in the barracks was soaring to the extreme for a moment, and the soldiers all gathered in front to watch the unprecedented excitement.Everyone knows that Huo Xiaoman is a soldier beside the county guard.Qiu Hongguang was the invincible and popular team leader in the barracks. Whoever loses wins. If the county guard is still watching here, the soldiers would all want to gamble.

Huo Xiaoman shot first, the blue light flashed, and the epee pointed directly at Qiu Hongguang's legs.This sword was very heavy to the naked eye, but Huo Xiaoman used it with ease. Qiu Hongguang also put away his contempt, and blocked Huo Xiaoman's attack with the horizontal knife.After this move, both of them knew in their hearts, knowing that the other party should not be underestimated, so they went all out.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them had gone through thirty or forty moves. Qiu Hongguang's moves were flexible and complicated. It seemed that he had learned from a master of swordsmanship, and his sword was also a rare sharp weapon.Huo Xiaoman's moves are simpler, he is good at being flexible, and his moves are precise and ruthless, so powerful that he is hard to parry.

After a hundred moves, Qiu Hongguang could no longer hold on.Huo Xiaoman made a feint, but Qiu Hongguang swung his knife to block it, and his heart groaned.Huo Xiaoman turned around and kicked him under his knees. Qiu Hongguang couldn't stand still, and supported the ground with his knife. When he raised his head, the green steel sword was already in between his eyebrows.

Qiu Hongguang blinked, sweat fell on his eyelashes, and he gasped slightly.

He had never lost before, but this time he lost to a boy who was a few years younger than him.

Huo Xiaoman put away his sword, and said sincerely: "You don't have to be discouraged, I am born with supernatural power, and you are already very powerful if you can hold on until now."

"The most important thing is that my swordsmanship was taught by the Patriarch himself."

After he finished speaking, he quickly returned to Huo Yi's side, forcibly suppressing his excitement, so as not to lose his composure in front of the Patriarch.

At this time, the soldiers onlookers reacted and applauded fiercely, and the cheers became louder and louder.They never expected that the baby face next to Huo Yi would be so powerful. In contrast, although Qiu Hongguang lost, he also showed extraordinary strength.

Huo Yi put away the two copper coins he had won amid the cheers, not caring that they were stained with mud and sweat.

He patted Huo Xiaoman on the shoulder: "Good job, I won those two copper coins to buy you some delicious food."

Huo Xiaoman suddenly showed a bright smile.

After the incident was over, Huo Yi didn't take it seriously, but the next morning, when he got up to practice archery, he saw Qiu Hongguang hanging on the wall.

Qiu Hongguang: "..."

He was caught climbing the wall, but he was very calm and composed, jumped down by himself, and obediently went to knock on the door.

dong dong dong.

Huo Yi put down his bow and opened the door for Qiu Hongguang.

Qiu Hongguang stood outside with a knife hanging from his waist, as if seeking revenge.

Huo Yi reminded him: "It is a felony to break into a private house." Not to mention that it was his county guard's house.

"I'm sorry." Qiu Hongguang bowed his head and said, "I just wanted to see you sooner, and I didn't want to come in."

Huo Yi felt that Mr. Qiu's family was strange.However, it is obvious that Qiu Hongguang has no concept of national laws and regulations. He is simply a wealthy family among landlords and a family among powerful ones.

"Is something wrong?"

Qiu Hongguang said: "I want to ask you for advice. Yesterday Huo Xiaoman said that you taught him his swordsmanship... Huo Jun, you got up really early." Compared with the county guard, Huo Jun is a more respectful person. call.

Huo Yi either got up early or couldn't fall asleep, so he let the door open. Today happened to be a day for taking a rest, and he was busy with the things in hand, so it was rare for him to be free for two days.

"Come in and talk."

Qiu Hongguang scratched his head and followed Huo Yi into the courtyard.

The Sheriff's Mansion occupies a large area, but there is only one main house and one side room, with firewood houses and latrines at the back, and there is no grand ostentation.

Among them, the shooting range and the stables accounted for the largest proportion. The shooting range was not only large, but also very formal. Qiu Hongguang was a little envious when he saw it.
