Fu Song

Chapter 59

Zhao Suo looked at Zhang Chao, who went back and forth, and was dumbfounded when he heard the other party repeat the murderous declaration that the victory and defeat were determined, and that it was also a decision of life and death.

After a long while, he shook his head and sighed, "He's really a good man, but does he actually underestimate our Fourth Army? He wants ten to beat a hundred? Hundreds of military salaries are fed to dogs?"

Zhang Chao bowed and said, "The official, the minister will let him know what it means to be arrogant and rude."

Zhao Suo paced back and forth in the hall for a few steps, and pondered: "If this happens, people will die, right?"

"Yes!" Zhang Chao said: "But when you are a soldier and fight, you naturally have to have the consciousness of dying for the country at any time. Dying on the battlefield is not much different from dying on the exercise field. You just need to be more embarrassed after the fact. "

"Zhang Qing, Xiao Ding is so determined, do you think there is a possibility of failure of the Fourth Army?" Zhao Suo asked suddenly, frowning.

Zhang Chao knelt down suddenly: "Official family, ten to one hundred, if the minister's subordinates still lose, the minister has no face, and then the four armies will command the four armies to stay in this position, the minister will take this as a guarantee, I will The upper four armies will win."

"Since you are so confident, so be it!" Zhao Suo was relieved to see Zhang Chao so confident.

To be honest, when I heard Xiao Ding's words, I felt extremely uncomfortable when I felt the other party's pride.

The Upper Fourth Army is the army that defends Bianliang, which is like a son.

The frontier troops guarding the frontier, of course, worked hard and made great achievements, but they must be far away, even if they were a godson.

The godson doesn't look down on his own son at all now, and no one will feel uncomfortable.

"Xiao Ding is arrogant and wants to use ten to defeat a hundred, then we might as well make the situation a little bigger, and inform all the civil and military officials in Beijing above the seventh rank, ten days later, they will gather in Qionglin Garden, let us have a good look at the old secretaries of Xiao Xian. Grandson's arrogance. Zhang Qing, don't really kill Xiao Ding, firstly, he is a hero after all, and secondly, he should give three points to the old secretaries Xiao and Xiao Jixiang."

"I understand!" Zhang Chao bowed and retreated.

It wasn't until the sun went down that Xiao Ding and Xiao Cheng came back together. Zhang Cheng was indeed very enthusiastic, with the best dishes, the best wine, and the best music team, who drank from the afternoon until the sky was over. It was getting dark, Luo Gang and Zhang Cheng were both unconscious, and Xiao Cheng and Xiao Ding were also swaying.

As everyone knows, the Xiao Mansion at this time is already in chaos.

The official's decree had been issued, and there was a sudden uproar in the courtroom. After Xiao Yu got the news, he hurried back to the house, but he couldn't find Xiao Ding. After hearing the news, Gao Qi and Gao Qi cried secretly, while Hao Tao burst into tears.

"Dalang Erlang! You guys are back." Xu Wuyan, who had been waiting at the door, grabbed the two brothers and dragged them to the lobby: "The family is in chaos."

"What happened?" Xiao Cheng asked in surprise.

"Jiro, don't you know?"

"What do I know?" Xiao Cheng blinked and looked at Xu Wuyan.

"Is it the matter of the duel between me and Taiwei Zhang that has been passed on to the mansion?" Xiao Ding was not surprised and asked calmly.

"My lord!" Xu Wuyan slapped his thigh: "Where did it spread to the mansion, the official family has already made a decree, ten days later, in the Qionglin Garden, all the civil and military officials above the seventh rank of Beijing gathered here. Watch the duel between you and the Fourth Army, Dalang. How can you win with ten enemies?"

Xiao Cheng stared at his elder brother in shock.

The Fourth Army is known as the most elite army in the Emperor Song Dynasty. This is the guard of the capital. How could the eldest brother be so arrogant?To fight one against ten?
"When did this happen?"

"Just when you and Zhang Ziming went to bathe and change clothes, Taiwei Zhang came back, and after talking with me, I made an appointment with him!" Xiao Ding said.

"Brother, your tone is so tight, you didn't reveal anything after drinking this half-day wine!" Xiao Cheng complained.

"What's the use of telling you guys? I don't even have to drink this drink. It's rare to have a drink on the top floor of Fanlou. Naturally, it's better to have a good time."

"Brother, are you sure you will win?" Xiao Cheng was also not at all sure.No matter how brave the eldest brother and his guards are, there are only eleven people. Even if the whole body is iron, how many nails can they hit?How many ants kill elephants!

And after these words are released, I am afraid that the upper and lower four armies are now all in the same hatred, filled with righteous indignation, and they are eager to teach these bastards from the north.

"Even if you can't win, you have to let the other party know what the real Jagged Army is." Xiao Ding said sternly.

"It turns out that eldest brother is not sure!" Xiao Cheng was suddenly shocked.

"When it comes to fighting, how can you be sure of everything!" Xiao Ding said: "In such a duel, it's just a matter of fighting for your life. It depends on who is not afraid of death. The most important thing is the first contact, as long as the first contact is cold. Once you have the courage of the other party, the next thing will be easier to handle."

Xiao Cheng was silent.

"Second brother, have you ever seen a scene where a dozen Liao troops chased hundreds of Song troops?" Xiao Ding said, "Oh, of course you haven't, but I have."

"But eldest brother, ten days later, in the competition in front of the official family, will these people really be frightened away by your blow?" Xiao Cheng shook his head and said.

"It's not a big deal except life and death. These people are not used to life and death, so how can they be compared with us? I have also seen some soldiers in the frontier, in order to escape, they stabbed to death the main general who blocked them!" Xiao Ding said.

"It's an adventure after all!"

"How can you work hard if you don't wake them up?" Xiao Ding said coldly. "If they really think they are strong and go to the battlefield at that time, they will miss a big deal."

While speaking, the two brothers had already entered the lobby.

The two women with red and swollen eyes suddenly burst into tears again. Gao Qi opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything. She just stared at Xiao Ding, with sorrow in her eyes.

Finally, I was looking forward to the return of my man, so that he would no longer have to fight for his life on the front line, but in a blink of an eye, this restless man had made such a big mess again.

"This matter has nothing to do with the second brother, he doesn't know about it at all!" Xiao Ding first let Xiao Cheng get away when he opened his mouth.

Xiao Yu looked at the eldest son for a long time before sighing: "I naturally know, how can he get involved in such a thing, no matter how powerful he is? It's just Dinger, how sure are you?"

"More than [-]%!" Xiao Ding said.

Hearing that it was only [-]%, Gao Qi burst into tears again.

Xiao Ding glanced at his wife apologetically. In his whole life, I was afraid that this virtuous woman would be frightened forever.

"Over [-]%, not bad!" To everyone's surprise, Xiao Yu actually nodded. "In the beginning, His Majesty meant that it was only ten to ten. Why did you end up ordering ten to one hundred?"

"My lord, if it's ten to ten, Big Brother will definitely lose." Xiao Cheng interjected.

"How do you say that?" Xiao Han glared at his son angrily. He had already fought with Xiao Yu before, and asked Xiao Yu to intercede with the official family. After this fight, even if he resigned his post as the third secretary for this, it would still be worth it. at all costs.It's a pity that Xiao Yu knew in his heart that this was just a battle of willpower?

Here, there has been a political dispute between the Lord Peace faction and the Lord War faction.

After learning the news, he immediately went to Chen Gui and heard the content of the conversation between only four people.I hate Russell very much. If Russell hadn't provoked this, how could such a thing happen.

When things got to this point, even if he took the position of the third envoy to threaten him, it would not change the result.

"No matter how bad the Fourth Army is, there are still a lot of heroes." Xiao Cheng said, "Taiwei Zhang can pick out these people as much as possible, and fight with the elder brother's guards one by one. Where could these guards be? What about the opponents of these people? But now it is ten to one hundred, that is, the elder brother will lead his two groups of personal guards, and singled out a hundred people from the Fourth Army. If such conditions are opened, the other party can only take out one team. Come and fight with big brother."

"Can they still exchange people in?" Xiao Han shook his head.

"Impossible!" Xiao Yu said, "No matter how confused Taiwei Zhang is, he wouldn't do such a thing. Doesn't this mean he is bullying the king in public? How can such a thing be hidden from others? Everyone is staring at this. In the field test, such blatant cheating, Zhang Taiwei doesn't have to do it, it's even more serious than losing."

"That's the truth!" Xiao Cheng said: "What Taiwei Zhang can do is to replace this general with someone who is really brave and good at fighting. As for the others, it depends on their usual skills. I think, this Is it your only chance to win?"

Xiao Ding laughed: "Second brother is indeed a discerning person. Only in this way can I have a chance to win."

"People will die! And a lot of people will die!" Xiao Yu sighed.

"Even if all of them die, it's just a hundred people. It's better than going to the battlefield in the future and thousands of people die!" Xiao Ding said coldly.He was used to seeing life and death, and he had long been accustomed to looking at problems from a general direction.

This person can be someone else, and if necessary, it can also be yourself.

"This is the end of the matter, and there is no other good way. You can only grit your teeth and go to the dark. Uncle Xu, you go and recruit all those personal guards in Ding'er."

"Yes!"

Xu Wuyan came and went very quickly, and ten personal guards quickly stood in the hall.

"You already know the matter, right?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Got it!" There was no timid expression on the faces of the ten guards, and they looked the same as usual. If you look closely, you can see a little excitement in their eyes.

"You are all Ding'er's personal guards, and you share the honor and disgrace with him, so I won't say anything else." Xiao Yu said, "Ten days later, the battle will be won, and each will be rewarded with [-] pieces of money. If anyone is unfortunate, When he died in battle, his family, a certain Xiao, received him from the Bianliang Mansion to place him in the care of the deceased.
