But this trick failed to fool Xiong Liguo.
Xiong Liguo's hands were like cattail fans, blocking Xie Hong's attack at the right position.
Since the first move exposed his ability, Xie Hong no longer held back, but jumped up and launched a round of attacks like a storm, which quickly made Xiong Liguo speed up, otherwise he would not be able to deal with him. s attack.
Qi Xingyun is an expert in his own right. He can see the true strength by standing under the ring and watching.
Before the two could decide the winner, Qi Xingyun shouted to stop.
"That's enough. You two have different martial arts skills. We are both fierce generals. However, I also want to test your strategy and tactics again." Qi Xingyun smiled slightly.
The art of war is often more important than personal martial arts.
An individual's martial arts can only defeat a hundred people, but the art of war can defeat ten thousand people.
Even if one reaches the master level in martial arts, it is only the power of one person, and in a real war it is still not as good as a general who can control an army.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Meihua and Xiong Liguo said.
"Xie Hong, Cao Yuan, come and open the military book and find questions to test them both." Qi Xingyun said.
Later, Xie Hong and Cao Yuan used some examples from the military books to investigate. Both Wang Meihua and Xiong Liguo answered fluently. It was obvious that they had studied the military books carefully.
As a result, Qi Xingyun was naturally very happy. After all, the imperial court had another pillar of talent.
He has always been dissatisfied with the large and small positions in the army being controlled by some children of general families. If new blood can be introduced, a certain balance can be achieved so that one family will not become the dominant one.
If all the generals were in harmony, then it might be Qi Xingyun's turn to worry.
The Zuo family is powerful. Yang Ruoqing's line originally had no conflict with the Zuo family. Now that she wants to help General Fubo's lineage, she will inevitably fall out with the Zuo family. In this way, the established generals and the emerging generals can form a competition. The balance between all parties is the key to the emperor's control of the court and then the world.
"Okay, I am very happy and satisfied. The two of you will go to Zhongyonghou's Mansion now. The Zhongyonghou's Mansion will arrange the specific military positions, and I will also have an imperial edict for them." Qi Xingyun nodded with satisfaction.
After all, these two people have not made any achievements yet, and Qi Xingyun is not easy to award rewards, but he agreed to the Zhongyong Hou Mansion to accept it. For general military positions, Zhongyong Marquis and the Yang family have the right to appoint them. He does not need to worry about them. If in the future If you have merit, it will not be too late to reward you in the future.
…
A few days later, it was already the day when the Royal Guards were about to officially begin their competition.
The initial competition is not directly open to the public, but is a competition within the group. The final results will still be announced, but the results only have a certain effect on future bets, but they are not decisive. .
At this time, dozens of people from the Golden Snake Guard have not returned yet and are still in the Reclining Buddha Mountain.
The original instructors who trained them had long been changed, and Bai Wulang had taken over long ago. He took the people of the Golden Snake Guard into the mountains and basically never came back, so Jiang Wulang didn't know exactly what those people Bai Wulang had trained. What does it look like.
At this time, Jiang Wulang and Wan Qingchun were waiting outside the Golden Snake Guard station, looking at the road leading to Wo Fo Mountain.
After waiting for a long time, there was still no one to see the Golden Snake Guard.
Wan Qingchun was a little anxious. Although the Golden Snake Guard was poor, he was a member of the Golden Snake Guard himself, so he naturally hoped that the Golden Snake Guard could become stronger.
And this time, he invested a lot of money in Golden Snake Guard. If Golden Snake Guard lost, he couldn't imagine what kind of losses he would suffer.
When he thought of this, he felt heartbroken.
"Brother Jiang, Fifth Master Bai won't forget the time, right? The competition is about to begin." Wan Qingchun said anxiously.
Jiang Wulang didn't think Bai Wulang would forget time. In his previous training, he was extremely punctual. Training started whenever he was told. No one could delay it.
"Wait and see, don't worry, it will definitely appear." Jiang Wulang said with his hands in his sleeves.
"I hope I can remember the time. If I can't make it back in time, I'll be in trouble. I might be eliminated early." Wan Qingchun sighed.
While they were talking, suddenly, dozens of figures walked out from the direction of the woods.
These people left the woods, walked onto the official road, and walked towards the station, but their clothes were all in tatters, and they looked like beggars, and something looked wrong.
But judging from the remaining colors and styles of their clothes, these people are really members of the Golden Snake Guard.
The only one with intact clothes was Shiro Goro walking in the middle. He walked with a swagger, a gourd hanging from his waist, and he walked with great ease.
"They are the Golden Snake Guards? Why did they become beggars?" Wan Qingchun said dumbfounded.
"It's the Golden Snake Guard. The Fifth Master is inside. Just look at their momentum and you will understand. They have been completely transformed and are no longer the Golden Snake Guard before, so you can rest assured." Jiang Wulang said with a smile.
Wan Qingchun took a closer look and found that the appearance was indeed quite different. Although the clothes on his body had become tattered, the overall appearance showed an astonishing military momentum. This is the real He has a military temperament. If you look carefully, he looks a bit like Jiang Wulang, a veteran of many battles.
Baigoro stepped forward, picked up the wine gourd at his waist, pulled out the stopper, took a sip of water, stretched out his hand to wipe the wine stains from his mouth, and then said: "The time is still too short, for the time being it's just Now that I have been trained like this, I am still lacking a little if I go to the battlefield, but it should be almost enough to participate in an internal competition."
"Do you want to have a competition? Shall I go find some people from the army?" Wan Qingchun stepped forward.
But Jiang Wulang shook his head and expressed disapproval. He looked at the dozen veterans behind him, all of whom were members of the Guards, and said, "Let's just let them compete with the Guards again."
"As long as we don't lose so quickly, I think it's a sure bet to participate in the competition."
In fact, Jiang Wulang trusted Bai Wulang's methods, but he still wanted to test it, show it to others, and give Wan Qingchun some confidence.
"Thirty men come out, just to face fifteen personal guards, two to one." Baigoro shouted.
Soon, thirty people walked out from the Golden Snake Guards. These people looked really different. From the surface, the mental outlook of their walking was very different. Not only were they tough, but they also had a strong spirit. kind of confidence.
Jiang Wulang signaled, and the fifteen personal guards gathered.
The personal guards followed Jiang Wulang back to the capital. They had really seen blood, but now the momentum of the thirty Golden Snake Guards was not weak at all.
