Chapter 191: Both kindness and power
A good man would rather die in a fight, but a strong man would be ashamed to be a Confucian. ----------Du Fu of Tang Dynasty "Send Captain Cai Xizeng back to Longyou, because he sent it to Secretary Gao Thirty-five"
It is said that it was a dark and windy night, and there were murders and arson. On the cliff of the dangerous mountain road at the northern foot of Jielong territory, Chen Long, Huang Zhong, and Zhao Yun led the army to cover up the dumplings of Jia Long's troops, and surrounded more than a hundred of Jia Long's remaining soldiers. Only Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren were left on the scene, fighting with both guns at the same time, which was dizzying.
Both of them are the proud disciples of the spear master Tong Yuan, and each of them has understood the essence of the spear technique of Hundred Birds Chaofeng. But the master led him in, and practice depends on the individual. Although their marksmanship is similar, there is still a difference between them.
Zhang Ren is tall and strong, as strong as a brown bear. He is extremely powerful, and every shot has a roaring sound. Zhao Yun is the perfect combination of speed and strength. There are several cold stars everywhere on the tip of the spear, which makes it difficult to distinguish the authenticity. Moreover, the movement of the spear moves smoothly, and the connection is close to perfect. It seems that it has no trace of human fireworks.
Zhang Ren danced the spear for a long time, and found that his opponent's spear was too fast. The bigger the gun, the more pressure doubled. He had no choice but to light up the steel spear first, jumped more than ten feet high, and was the first to use the unique move of hundreds of birds facing the phoenix. For a moment, the surrounding air became tense. As soon as he was suffocated, the compressed wind chirped like a bird, and everyone's ears and drums rang like bells and drums. They all looked at Zhang Ren in mid-air with dumbfounded eyes, marveling at the mystery of the strange move.
Zhao Yun was in the middle of the game and suddenly felt the air around him rushing in. He gritted his teeth and sneered slightly, stamped his feet and jumped up. With the same internal energy filled with steel spears, he also used the trick of a hundred birds facing the phoenix.
The chirping of birds became rapid and high-pitched, and as the heavy rain pear gun tore through the air at high speed, the two masters' unique moves collided with each other, and substantial air ripples instantly appeared in the air.
The ripples in the air spread at supersonic speed, and the buzzing sound swept across all the birdsong. The huge shock wave instantly broke the surrounding small trees, and branches and leaves flew all over the ground. Chen Long and Huang Zhong, who were watching the battle from the side, both had their ear drums ringing slightly. Even the two armies facing each other in the distance were startled and looked over.
Zhang Ren snorted, obviously slightly injured. He supported his body with the steel gun on the ground, looked at Zhao Yun in astonishment and said: "What a trick for hundreds of birds to come to the phoenix! Who are you? Who are you, Teacher Tong?" "
Zhao Yun, who was superior in skills, calmly said: "Senior Brother Zhang, I am my junior brother Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong." Zhang Ren snorted and said: "Huh, don't get close. Since you and I both learn from Master Tong, Let’s judge by martial arts today!” As he spoke, his strong arm muscles tightened, and the steel gun buzzed with a dragon roar again. The power of the gun was even stronger, and it actually came towards Zhao Yun’s forehead to stab him at an extremely fast speed.
However, who else in the world can shoot faster than Zhao Yun? Zhao Yun hated this senior brother for being too stubborn and unreasonable, so he poured all his inner strength into the steel gun without a moment's notice. The heavy rain pear blossom gun actually made a loud phoenix cry, sweeping across the target like a divine whip. Zhang Ren's spear came in the middle.
When the phoenix roared, Zhang Ren's hand on the gun trembled. Immediately afterwards, a huge force came, and the steel gun body shook violently. The tiger's chest cracked and blood flowed. His arms felt as if they had been struck by lightning, sore and numb. This was also It was Zhang Ren who firmly held on to the steel gun that was shot high into the sky, so he didn't have the drama of the instrument being smashed away.
Zhang Ren's shoulders were trembling, and he said with a mixture of sadness and joy: "Zilong, what a handsome kung fu, I didn't expect you to practice it to the level of the phoenix roaring thousands of miles away. I don't know how happy I am if Master is by my side."
Zhao Yun took back the steel spear to his side, and stood upright like a steel spear. Sa Ran smiled and said: "This is also the result of senior brother's strong martial arts and forcing the younger brother out. Senior brother, can we fight again?"
Zhang Ren raised his eyes, looked at Chen Long and Huang Zhong outside the court, shook his head and said nothing. Zhao Yun laughed: "Since there is no fight, my master Chen Long is by your side." He pointed at Chen Long and said, "Why don't you surrender early?"
Zhang Ren glanced at the tall and handsome Chen Long, raised his head and said proudly: "Your master, Chen Long, how do you compare with your kung fu?"
Zhao Yun laughed loudly and said: "Comparing my kung fu to my master Chen Long is like the difference between a stream and the Yangtze River; and my ingenious strategies and battle plans are like fireflies looking up at the bright moon!"
Zhang Ren shook his head repeatedly and said: "How is it possible! I don't believe it!" Zhao Yun said again: "My master Chen Long is also your and my junior brother. The master handed him the Panlong Seven Detectives at the bottom of the Xinchuang pressure box, and I worship him as my lord again, what do you think?"
Zhang Ren listened and stood there blankly, making no sound. Chen Long stood quietly, and in the dark night he could only hear the soft breathing of a few people. Zhang Ren felt Chen Long's deep breathing. It was a deep breathing that only masters in the inner circle could have. It seemed especially unfathomable in the darkness.
Zhang Renran's neck slowly lowered, and when he released his right hand, the steel gun slipped from his bursting tiger's mouth and trembling fingertips, and fell to the ground with a clang. Chen Long instantly felt Zhao Yun's muscles relax from the extreme tension. , realized that his superhuman senses had improved.
Zhang Ren's steel gun fell to the ground, his will was dejected, and he murmured to himself: "That's all, since Zilong said that he is not his opponent, I am certainly not his opponent. I am not as skilled as others, there is nothing I can do! But I, Zhang Renfei, am a surrenderer, I will kill or behead him." , please feel free to do so!”
Zhao Yun saw that Zhang Ren refused to surrender to the enemy, and thought that this man was so stubborn, so he had to ask Chen Long for instructions. Chen Long finally spoke, and without glancing at Zhang Ren in the light of the torch, he said: "Senior Brother, you don't have to surrender to me now. I want to ask you what your sincerity is, are you pursuing the benefit of the people? If so, we are like-minded. Now, as long as you follow me to the mountain road to stop the killings and introduce me to Jia Zhengren, okay?" After saying that, he turned around and left. Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun followed him from left to right. Zhang Ren remembered that the lives of his men were in danger, and he followed him unconsciously. Walking behind a few people.
Jia Longjun did not put down his weapons, but was pointed at by a circle of sharp arrows, and his morale was obviously low. Seeing Chen Long approaching, the special operations team members automatically made way for a passage. Chen Long waved his right arm lightly, and the soldiers in the encirclement immediately lowered their bows and arrows.
Zhang Ren, who was following behind, saw the sharp arrows hanging low around him and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. The circle was full of elite soldiers he had trained for many days, and he did not want them all to perish, not to mention the current situation, where only his own troops would be killed or injured.
When the Yizhou soldiers saw Zhang Ren obediently following a few people with no weapons in their hands, they didn't know that their god of war, General Zhang Ren, had suffered a disastrous defeat. Chen Long raised his finger and pointed at Zhao Yun and said: "Everyone, it was the flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple, and my family did not recognize their own family. This General Zhao Yun is your fellow disciple of General Zhang. There was a fierce fight just now, and it was really hard to tell the winner." Now General Zhang wants to make peace to save your lives, and I have agreed. If it is General Zhang's soldiers, as long as they throw away their weapons, I will release them immediately without any hesitation, how about that?"
The Yizhou soldiers didn't know whether to believe Chen Long's words. Seeing Zhang Ren lowered his head and said nothing, they couldn't help but turn to look at Jia Long, instantly revealing Jia Long's position. Chen Long saw at a glance that there was a man in black who was not tall, and he laughed and said, "Jia Zhengzhi, why should you be timid anymore?"
Jia Long complained in his heart that he was really a pig-like teammate. When Chen Long stared at him, he couldn't help but lose confidence. His body trembled greatly, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clang. Seeing that the general had given up, the soldiers around him began to lower their weapons one after another, and their swords and arrows clattered to the ground.
Chen Long smiled and walked to Jia Long's side. Jia Long gradually regained his composure, stroking three locks of his long beard with his hands and looking straight at Chen Long. He indeed had the demeanor of a great scholar, like a child of a noble family. Jia Long looked at Chen Long, who was half a head taller than him, and spoke first: "Are you Chen Long, the Lord of Lingling?"
Chen Long said with a smile: "I am still the current governor of Jiaozhou, a general named Hou Ye appointed by the late emperor, and a popular figure around the Queen Mother. How could you be so brave and dare to attack me halfway?" These words were half ridicule and half humor. Threatening, Jia Long was speechless.
Chen Long pointed at Zhang Ren again and said: "This is Zhang Ren, the general of Yizhou." He moved his finger to Jia Long and said: "You are the general of Yizhou. Who can tell me why the Yizhou soldiers interfered with Zhang Yun's Jingzhou soldiers?" Together?"
Jia Long was still speechless. It seemed that it was no secret that Jingzhou and Yizhou were colluding together. Chen Long smiled and continued: "Jia Zhizhang, since you refuse to say it, I will say it for you. To be precise, I will fight for you."
"Jia Zhi was originally a member of the Yizhou gentry and was a leader in Sichuan. Not only did he have outstanding strategies, but he was also able to conquer battles. Unfortunately, he lacked strength and made a mistake in his game, recruiting Liu Yan, a tyrant, as the lord. The Yizhou gentry was suppressed by Liu Yan, an outsider. Extremely depressed, Jia Zhang tried his best to get this opportunity to go on an expedition, which was also the only opportunity to be independent. It can be said that he worked hard for the Yizhou gentry, but he still lived a life worse than death."
Jia Long was dumbfounded by what he said, as if looking at a devil, and stuttered: "How do you know these things?" He inadvertently admitted Chen Long's words, completely forgetting that there were many soldiers standing around him, as well as the Jingzhou man. General Tsai.
Chen Long showed a charming smile and turned sideways, showing a perfect profile. Chen Long lowered his eyes and said, "I just know it, because my master is a god." Everyone around him heard this and his heart trembled.
"However, I have always despised Liu Yan's character, and Yizhou should be governed by Yizhou people. I still decided to give Jia Zhan a chance."
As he spoke, Chen Long turned to Jia Long, stared into Jia Long's eyes and said, "As long as Jia Zongcheng tells me the layout of the Yizhou army in Jiangling, I will not only release them immediately, but I will also help you capture Yizhou and drive them away in the future." Liu Yan, what do you think?"
This sentence stirred up a thousand waves, and all the soldiers around him were dumbfounded. They, including Zhang Ren, stared at Jia Long blankly. Jia Long glanced at the strong soldiers behind Chen Long and felt that it was beyond his power. He was also moved by Chen Long's words. If he had Chen Long as a strong support, there was no need to worry about taking Yizhou. But how can I prevent Chen Long from invading Yizhou in the future? I'm afraid I can only welcome Chen Long like Liu Yan, but it seems that Chen Long will be a better lord than Liu Yan.
Jia Long's eyes turned, and his eyes stayed on the men in black at the edge. The eyes of the men in black flashed, they seemed very uneasy, and they turned around to run away. Jia Long suddenly gave an order, and the surrounding soldiers immediately controlled several men in black. One of them was not low in martial arts and resisted vigorously. Zhang Ren went over to hold him down. Chen Long smiled and said: "Jia Zhengyi is indeed a smart man. These are General Cai and his soldiers, right?"
