The veteran general could have shot Pang Wanchun directly, but he only cut off his bow and picked off his tassel.
Tong Guan saw this and was secretly unhappy. Unexpectedly, Pang Wanchun was so out of his mind that he almost chased him in front of the formation. His mood suddenly improved again. He felt that this was a smart way to deal with it. After all, killing people is better than killing people, so he temporarily pinched Ya The idea of giving a pair of shoes to a veteran to wear.
He pretended to be kind, clapped his hands, and said with a smile: "Pang, I have heard of your brave name for a long time. Marshal of the Five Directions of Mingjiao, people call you the best archer in the south of the Yangtze River! Haha, but, however, Birds in the south of the Yangtze River, where have they seen the thick earth and high sky? How can being the lord in the rivers and lakes be better than making achievements in the army of thousands of horses? Since you know Wang Shunchen's ability, I will make a decision today. If you are willing to surrender in front of the horse, I will Not only will I pardon you for your previous sins, but I will also ask Shun to accept you as his disciple, and you will be granted a title of marquis thousands of miles away in the future. What do you think?"
Pang Wanchun said "Ah" and was shocked to realize that he had lost his composure in front of the two armies. His eyes suddenly turned red and he shouted: "Brothers in my religion have deep loyalty and live and die together. How can people like you understand?"
After saying that, he turned around and ran away, jumped on his mount and headed back to the main formation. Tong Guan laughed behind him: "Surrender is a big deal, think about it carefully, I will always keep this door for you..."
Knowing that he was deliberately provoking, Pang Wanchun returned to the formation and was about to explain when he saw Fang Tianding's face turning red with anger: "Pang Shuai, do you still think we are not embarrassed enough today? Why don't you worship that enemy general?"
Pang Wanchun felt guilty, lowered his head, and couldn't help but said: "He, he is Wang Shunchen..."
Fang Tianding interrupted: "Wang Shunchen, Zhang Shunchen, did they kill your courage with just two arrows?"
Angrily, he ignored him and looked directly at Shi Bao: "Uncle Shi, it's up to you to save the face of our army."
Shi Bao was completely unsure: Wang De, whom he was most afraid of, had not yet appeared!
But at this moment, can’t it be said? He nodded decisively: "Don't worry, Shi would rather die than win against him! Let's see who he sends out."
In the fourth game, it was the officers and soldiers' turn to send people first. Tong Guan yawned, pointed at the sky, and said with a smile: "It's late, let's stop here today. Three battles in one day, and the winner will be decided in three days." Haha, remember we are still here tomorrow, we will decide the outcome again."
After saying that, he waved his hand and the officers and soldiers retreated like a tide.
Fang Tianding gritted his teeth and reluctantly ordered to return to the city. He took the horse and ran into the city first.
Cao Cao rode up to Pang Wanchun and whispered: "Brother Pang, is that veteran of the Western Army so great?"
Pang Wanchun nodded, with a look of extreme admiration in his eyes: "If it weren't for my younger brother's prestige, from Dali in the south, to Tubo in the west, to Jin and Liao in the north, among all the nations and tribes, if we were to judge by their bow and arrow skills, none of them would be able to do so. And his.”
Oops! This is a big statement. Everyone showed disbelief, Shi Jin smiled and said: "My Liangshan brother Hua Rong, known as 'Xiao Li Guang', that shooting skill, hey..."
Pang Wanchun shook his head and said: "I have heard about the good name of Huazhi Village for a long time, but his ability is at least slightly better than mine. Compared with Wang Shunchen, haha..."
Ruan Xiaoqi was so angry that she jumped up and down: "How great is that fellow? You should tell me. If you just talk like this and destroy my prestige in Liangshan, you are not a son of man."
Fan Rui, Liu Tang and others also looked sideways.
Fang Qifu heard this from the side. He was afraid of a dispute and hurriedly came closer: "Wan Chun's words are not an exaggeration. If you tell me how powerful that guy is, everyone will be surprised -"
He traveled all over the country for most of his life, and he was most knowledgeable and strong in memory. He immediately told everyone in detail how Wang Shunchen became famous.
It turns out that Wang Shunchen was a partial general under the command of General Zhong Pu of the Zhong family in the past. In the second year of Yuanfu (1099), Zhong Pu was appointed as the magistrate of Hezhou. More than ten days after taking office, the Qiang people rebelled, and Zhong Pu wanted to hold on to the city to wait for him. At the right time, his superior Hu Zong refused and ordered to go out to fight. Unexpectedly, he was ambushed by a large enemy army. Zhong Pu died on the spot. The Song army was defeated. Tens of thousands of Qiang soldiers and cavalry took advantage of the situation to cover up the enemy for dozens of miles. The Song army's horsemen and horses could not escape and cried in despair. .
At this time, Wang Shunchen, the general, stepped forward, pointed at the pursuing Qiang army and laughed, "Do you know what flower arrangement is between the eyebrows?"
The Song troops all thought he was frightened. Unexpectedly, Wang Shunchen rode back on his own. Seven generals from the Qiang army were at the forefront. He shot three of them with his bow, all of which hit the center of their eyebrows. The remaining four were frightened. He returned to his horse and ran, but he shot them one by one. The arrows penetrated the chest from the back, and penetrated the iron armor. More than ten thousand Qiang cavalry all stopped their horses.
When the Song soldiers saw the great joy, they all took the opportunity to escape. Wang Shunchen stopped everyone and said: The enemy is just temporarily frightened, but they will definitely come back to kill them. Only by defeating them can they truly escape.
The Song troops followed his words and bravely fought again. As soon as they formed their formation, the Qiang soldiers came to kill them in large numbers.
This battle lasted for two full hours from Shen Shi to You Shi. Wang Shunchen stood on a high place in the formation, drew his bow and fired in all directions. When the bow broke, he replaced it. He opened the bow alternately with both hands, and fired more than a thousand arrows without missing a beat. , his fingers were rotten to the bone, blood flowed to his elbows, his arms were all red, the Qiang army was in a mess of casualties and injuries, and the gods were trying to snatch it away, so they had to flee sadly.
Afterwards, the imperial court discussed his merits and named him the magistrate of Lanzhou.
Speaking of this, Fang Qifu sighed and said: "A few years ago, I heard that he was not on good terms with his superiors. Because he had passed his official position, it was said that he died of depression. Unexpectedly, he was still alive, and was brought to Jiangnan by Tong Guan to join us. Made an enemy."
Everyone listened to his detailed explanation, which was not like boasting, and couldn't help but turn pale with horror. They all said: "There is such a divine general in the world!"
Liu Tang, Ruan Xiaoqi and others looked at each other, thinking that Huarong's arrow skills were so powerful that he might not be able to defeat thousands of troops.
At night, Fang Tianding sent people to ask Cao Cao to discuss matters. When Cao Cao arrived, he saw that only Fang Qifu and Shi Bao were in the hall. He knew what was going on and said with a smile: "My dear brother, you are looking for me, but you want to discuss the three battles tomorrow. How to arrange them?"
Fang Tianding nodded, looking anxious: "If I had known that he had so many powerful generals in the Western Army, I should not have agreed to fight with him! I thought that with Uncle Qi Buddha, Deng, Shi, Si, and Pang, I could win the victory safely There was no battle, but Brother Song also saw it today. Except for Uncle Qi Buddha, Fawang Deng and Marshal Si had a draw and a loss. Marshal Pang saw the old man Wang Shunchen, but he was like a mouse seeing a cat. He couldn't get into battle. Even if Uncle Shi Bao wins one game, how will he cope with the next five games?"
Cao Cao nodded solemnly and said slowly: "Shi Dalang and Tang Bin are as brave as the marshals from the five directions of your religion, and I hope they are not inferior to the officers and soldiers."
Fang Tianding turned around anxiously, shook his head and said: "In this way, if Uncle Shibao, Shi Dalang, and General Tang lose for any period of time, we will be at a great disadvantage. Alas, Brother Song, I heard that there is no better master in Liangshan than Leopard Head, Flower Monk, Green-faced Beast, and Little Li Guang, why don't they come with me? If the four of them are here, this battle will be as safe as Mount Tai."
Cao Cao smiled bitterly and said: "My dear brother, if I had known that there were so many fierce generals among the officers and soldiers, I would have brought them here. But at that time, I thought that your teaching was strong enough to carry them. I am waiting here out of loyalty in the world. If you really can do it with all your strength, Go, if you don't like what I say, I'm afraid that your sect may suspect that I have some other agenda in Liangshan."
Fang Tian was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: Isn't it? If Liang Shan really came in a big way, he was really worried about whether the other party was trying to occupy the magpie's nest under the guise of helping each other.
Fang Qifu suddenly said: "That's all. I'll ask Shi Dalang and General Tang for help tomorrow. Shi Bao will fight one more time. There's no need to fight him to the death. It's good to win. If you can't win, just give up decisively. Even if you lose all three games, it's nothing." Four losses.”
Fang Tianding's face turned pale, and he jumped to his feet and said: "If I lose four games, I will win three games in a row in the future, but it will not be a draw. If I lose one game, I will lose Hangzhou."
Fang Qifu shouted coldly: "How can there be a future? If we win consecutively tomorrow, let's be reasonable. If the situation is really unfavorable, tomorrow night, we will send out the whole army and rob the officers and soldiers' camp. He is counting on the day after tomorrow to fight. Where are you prepared? It’s time to go all out and destroy this imperial eclipse!"
Cao Cao was stunned, then smiled bitterly, but he didn't expect Fang Qifu to come up with such a plan. Isn't this... a coincidence?
Fang Tianding stared at him blankly for a moment, his mind gradually turned around, and he couldn't help but feel happy: "Yeah! When the two armies are fighting, they will do whatever they can. Why should I really bet with him? If I can win, I will win. If I can't, I will win." Turn the table over! Hahahaha, old thief Tong Guan, is he still alive this time?"
At the same time, Tong Guan also laughed loudly in the Chinese army tent: "Today we won a tie, I just used a plan. You and others who go out to fight don't have to fight to the death. If it is difficult to win for a while, why not admit defeat? Haha, tomorrow At night, it’s time for everyone to kill thieves with their lives!”
All the generals under his command were filled with murderous intent, and they all clasped their fists and said: "The commander-in-chief has a wonderful plan, we will obey your orders!"
There are different teachings: a thousand arrows shoot down the courage of the Qiang people, and the generals are exaggerated all over the world. The Buddha thought up clever plans, and the officials and thieves drew their swords at night.
