Two days later in the morning, Zhang Fei came excitedly to tell Zhao Chen that the stirrups were ready.
Zhao Chen stuffed a mouthful of Wan's cake into his mouth and hurried to the door.
In the past two days, Zhao Chen gradually got used to living with Master Bu and Wanshi, and the throbbing and embarrassment in his heart gradually eased.
Trainer Bu also followed out.
I saw Zhang Fei riding a horse, with his feet on the stirrups, dancing wildly, his hands free from the reins, and proudly showing off his eight-foot-long snake spear, which was flexible and flexible.
Zhao Chen knew at a glance that the horse stirrup was completed.
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Military advisor, you really know everything. You can design such wonderful things. Just such a small stirrup, hung on both sides of the saddle, when a person rides a horse, his feet are on the stirrup. It’s very stable when you ride it, and even people who can’t ride can sit firmly on the horse!”
"I know a lot of things. With stirrups, our cavalry will be able to conquer the world."
"That's right, don't worry, leave it to me, Lao Zhang, and I will definitely give you an invincible cavalry. Do you want to give it a try, military advisor?"
Zhao Chen smiled, took the reins from Zhang Fei, stepped on the stirrup with his left foot, and got on the horse.
Yes, this is the horse I rode when I was in Inner Mongolia. With the stirrups, there is a point of support, and I can easily balance my body without clamping the horse.
Zhao Chen put up his posture and walked around for a short half circle, feeling very satisfied.
The Bu Trainer at the door looked at Zhao Chen crazily, as if looking at the lover in his dream.
A high-spirited man with unparalleled resourcefulness, who has defended himself many times and treated himself like a family member, is now riding a horse and flying in the wind. Any woman who has just begun to fall in love will be moved.
The excitement at the door also attracted Wanshi to stop.
Zhao Chen saw the eager look in Trainer Bu's eyes, reined in his horse and stopped in front of her, and stretched out his hand towards her.
"Come!"
This scene is like the prince inviting the gray princess in a fairy tale, with all the spotlight shining on the two of them.
Trainer Bu shyly took Zhao Chen's hand, only to feel a strong force pulling her body off the ground, and landed sideways in front of Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen hugged the Bu trainer to his chest with both hands, pulled up the reins and headed out of the city.
Zhang Fei saw it and laughed loudly: "The military advisor is also a sweetheart. I have to tell my elder brother that the military advisor has a partner."
The rest of the people also smiled and dispersed.
Only Wanshi stood at the door, with a little loss in her happy eyes.
It is said that Zhao Chen ran wildly with Bu Lianshi, the autumn wind caressed Bu Lianshi's cheek, and the hair drew marks on Zhao Chen's chest with the wind.
Trainer Bu felt that his heart was beating so fast, as if it was about to jump out of his mouth, and his face felt burning. She unconsciously hugged Zhao Chen sideways and buried her head in Zhao Chen's arms.
Only then did Zhao Chen realize whether the two people's actions were too close, but he himself quite enjoyed the feeling.
Zhao Chen only stopped when he arrived at Chengzi Lake.
The two dismounted and looked at Chengzi Lake.
The sunset was reddish, falling on the sparkling lake like a piece of red silk.
From a distance, a beautiful couple and a horse, with mountains in the distance and a lake nearby, look like a moving picture.
The step trainer was intoxicated by the beautiful scenery and danced gracefully.
Zhao Chen looked at Trainer Bu, with his charming smile and elegant dancing posture, and smiled knowingly.
"I have lived in Huaiyin for fifteen years and I have never found Chengzi Lake to be so beautiful. Houde, it is you who put Chengzi Lake in beautiful clothes."
Trainer Bu's words made Zhao Chen feel a little embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, when it comes to love talk, Xiao Nizi is at a very high level.
"In the future, we can see all the Chinese scenery together."
"Um!"
The two looked at each other affectionately, their hearts getting closer, but their bodies kept a body distance from each other.
Suddenly, Zhao Chen felt a chill on his back, as if there was a murderous aura approaching quickly.
He turned around to check, and sure enough, a long sword was close at hand.
Zhao Chen was shocked and hurriedly retreated, trying to turn around and get out of the assassin's sword path.
But who knew that the assassin had superb swordsmanship and followed Zhao Chen closely with his long sword.
When Trainer Bu saw this, he threw himself in front of Zhao Chen regardless of his own safety.
The assassin was slightly startled and wanted to return his sword, but unfortunately it was a little late.
Seeing that the sword was about to stab the mid-step trainer, Zhao Chen was quick to think. He hugged the mid-step trainer tightly with both hands and turned slightly sideways.
The sword grazed the Bu Trainer's arm, and the Bu Trainer's skin that could be broken by a bullet was broken with just one scratch, and blood flowed down his arm.
Zhao Chen was very angry, and he distanced himself and wanted to check the wound for Trainer Bu.
Trainer Bu smiled and said: "Houde also injured his arm when he rescued my mother and I for the first time. Today, the trainer is repaying it to you."
"I rescued you sincerely, how can I return it?"
"I am also willing to block the sword for you."
Zhao Chen nodded and stood up to face the assassin.
"Who are you and why do you want to assassinate me?"
The assassin replied: "You won't change your name when you're working, and you won't change your surname when you're sitting down, Shi A. Someone wants to buy your head."
Shia? No wonder he is so good at swordsmanship, he is the one who masters Wang Yue's swordsmanship. Liu Bei, one of the top swordsman masters today, should not be his opponent.
In fact, Liu Bei's swordsmanship is very strong, which can be seen in his battle with the Yellow Turban, but in the later period, as the lord, he rarely faced off in front of the battle.
Zhao Chen recalled everything he had done since arriving in this era, and he had no grudges against anyone, so he asked: "Is that wrong? I have no enemies."
"Are you Liu Bei's military advisor Zhao Chen and Zhao Houde?"
"Exactly down there."
"That's right, just die."
After saying that, Shi A raised his sword to stab again.
Zhao Chen tightly protected Trainer Bu, dodging left and right, unwilling to leave.
Shi A shouted from the air: "Is a woman so important? You can't hide like this."
"It's so important. She is not an ordinary woman, she is my family!"
After hearing this, Trainer Bu looked at Zhao Chen with tears in his eyes.
When Zhao Chen saw Shi A's attack coming, he no longer had the strength to hide. He rolled his eyes and shouted loudly: "How much money that man gives you, I, Zhao Chen, will give you double!"
Shi A was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "I am a mighty swordsman, is it possible that my achievements are just for money?"
"Why not for money? But also for women?"
"Nonsense!"
"Is it for unrealistic ideals, for worthless promises, for friends who don't keep their word, for the reputation of not distinguishing between black and white?..."
Zhao Chen chattered a lot, which made Shi A a little irritable.
"It's so annoying. Stop talking nonsense and just die."
The sword was pointed at Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen thought to himself, it's over. He can't beat him, and he won't listen to his reasoning. He's really at the end of his rope. Not even a month after arriving in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, I encountered a bloody assassination plot. I still had a lot of useless strategies, so it ended like this? He really wanted to slap himself. He should have known better than to bring Bu Lianshi to Chengzi Lake to show off his affection, without even a bodyguard. Otherwise, there is still a glimmer of hope.
It's too late now, I can only let Shi A slaughter me.
Suddenly, Zhao Chen felt the ground vibrate, and then heard a whooshing sound, and an arrow passed in front of his eyes, forcing Shi A back.
"Who dares to hurt our military advisor!"
Zhao Chen looked up and saw Chen Dao coming with several elite cavalry.
In a moment, the army arrived and took control of Shi A in a matter of seconds.
Although Shi'a's swordsmanship was superb, the sword was too short on the battlefield and was far inferior to swords and guns. Therefore, in the cold weapon era, swords were rarely seen in battlefield battles. What's more, Chen Dao and others are all experienced in the battlefield, and their momentum surpasses Shi'a.
Chen Dao escorted Shi A to Zhao Chen.
"Commander, are you injured?"
"I'm not injured. Please bandage it, Master Bu."
Zhao Chen handed over the Bu trainer to the soldiers on the side, came to Shi A himself, and untied Shi A without saying a word.
Shi A was slightly surprised and asked, "Why?"
"You are a chivalrous man. I have heard of you a long time ago. You are loyal and courageous, and you do chivalry and justice. You don't promise money for money. It's a pity that you took the wrong path. This matter has nothing to do with you. Don't waste your swordsmanship in vain."
"I, Zhao Chen, have always been upright. If you choose to leave, tell the buyer that if you have the ability, come freely. If you can trust me, stay with me. My Lord Liu Xuande is thirsty for talents, and you will be of use in the future. The place of martial arts.”
Shi A was unexpected. He didn't expect that there was someone who had heard of his name, who didn't flinch in the face of his sword, and who even took the initiative to clear up the past grudges after being arrested. Such a kind-hearted prime minister was rare in the world.
Shi A didn't know whether to leave or stay for a while. He had traveled around the world for so many years, hoping to achieve success like Wang Yue, but in the end he failed to do so and he had no choice but to follow this path.
Zhao Chen left a horse and some military rations for Shi A, and walked towards Huaiyin City with Bu Lianshi and Chen Dao.
"Thank you uncle for saving me."
Chen Dao replied: "What did the military advisor say? But the military advisor, did you just let the assassin go like this?"
Zhao Chen replied mysteriously: "It's not to let him go, but to give him some time. He will come back sooner or later."
"By the way, Uncle Zhi, did your trip go well?"
"The military advisor predicted that everything went smoothly. As soon as our army arrived, all those counties heard the news and surrendered. When they came back, they also captured a few bandits and brought back some food."
"Has Wang Tianba of Chengzi Lake been destroyed?"
"It was destroyed without even a few struggles."
Zhao Chen nodded.
