Fu Song

Chapter 68
Xin Jian couldn't take it anymore.

His martial arts skills are inferior to Xiao Ding, and his experience against the enemy is far from enough.

How can he be like Xiao Ding, who fights with the Liao people on the border for three days and two ends? This kind of life-and-death fight is a common occurrence for Xiao Ding, but for Xin Jian, it is the first time in his life. .

Furthermore, although ten Xiao Ding's personal guards were only standing on one side while riding their war horses, the pressure on him was increasing as they knocked on the breastplate with knives and cheered.

He knew very well that at this time, if these people rushed up, from the rules, Xiao Ding would not be foul.

This in itself is a ten-on-hundred challenge, and now you are surrounded by ten people, and your companions are unable to come up to help, no one can blame that.

Xiao Ding has been in control of the overall situation steadily, but at this time, he has a heart of love for talent. Since he set foot on the battlefield, this is the first guy he has encountered who can almost match him.And judging from the information Xiao Cheng has collected, this guy should still have the last trick he didn't use. He didn't see the secret skills hidden in the opponent's gun. After all, this battle is still a bit regrettable!
Xin Jian decided to go all out.

In the loud shout, the long spear in his hand connected and exerted force, regaining a little disadvantage, the moment the two horses staggered, the moment the long spear was poked, the two hands were divided, and there was an extra mace in the hand.

Even Xiao Ding had been waiting for this move for a long time, but when he suddenly saw the mace, he was still shocked. He really didn't realize when Xin Jian pulled out the mace and hid it under the gun.

If he suddenly encounters this trick without knowing the details of Xin Jian, not to mention his death on the spot, but it is inevitable that he will be in a hurry.

Also because he was well prepared, when the mace struck, Xiao Ding laughed loudly, also holding a gun in his left hand, and wiping his right hand from the saddle, a black knife appeared in his hand, facing the attacking iron. Mace.

The angle of Xiao Ding's shot was very clever, the knife slanted to meet the mace, and there was a soft click.

The knife broke a heavy weapon such as a mace, Xin Jian was stunned, and Xiao Ding's knife had already swept back.

The sword light hit his face, and Xin Jian closed his eyes and died.

With a snapping sound, Xiao Ding's knife came to the end, but it drew a half-arc, turned it over, and the back of the knife hit Xin Jian's helmet heavily.

With a bang, Xin Jian's burly figure immediately swayed and fell to the ground with a bang.

"Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng!" The ten soldiers marched forward, surrounded Xiao Ding, raised the blood-stained saber in their hands, and cheered indulgently.

They accomplished a miracle that even they themselves could not have imagined and believed in advance. They even defeated the elites of the Dragon Guards and the Majun with [-] people.

Originally, they were all ready to die for Xiao Ding today.

Even if they were all dead, as long as they killed all the enemies, in the end, only Xiao Ding would be left standing on the school grounds, but victory belonged to them after all.

Now, everyone is there.

How can they not be ecstatic?

Looking at the group of frontier soldiers from the north on the school grounds cheering, there was a dead silence above the stands.

Zhao Jing, who was behind Zhao Suo, was gnashing his teeth, but he was helpless.

On the other hand, Zhao Suo turned his head to the side, pondered for a moment with his hands on his cheeks, sat up straight, and said, "Let Xiao Ding and those ten soldiers come up to see me."

A red-robed eunuch trotted all the way to the center of the school grounds and conveyed Zhao Suo's will to Xiao Ding and others.

After a while, Xiao Ding and others who disarmed all walked along the passage to Zhao Suo.

The strong smell of blood on their bodies made them turn their eyes and cover their noses wherever they went.

Xiao Ding didn't look sideways, but these soldiers under his command turned their heads left and right as if looking at it strangely, so many officials in purple robes and red robes, where can you see them in normal seasons?A Qingpao official in front of them is amazing.

These people don't know, they look at the strange eyes, but in the eyes of these people, it is their eyes that are murderous and aggressive, and they all turn around to avoid them and dare not look directly.

This is also conceivable. Some guys who have just killed countless people, even if they try their best to show their innocence, it is hard to believe that the kind of suffocating that they naturally emit is enough to make these people who have never seen blood. Officials were horrified.

"I've seen the official!" Xiao Ding bowed and saluted.

The guard behind him knelt on the ground, his head banging loudly.

"Long live Long live Long live!"

A mess of shouting was caught in the banging sound of kowtows, which immediately attracted a look of contempt from the stands.

Sure enough, they are some frontier buns, and they don't understand anything.

At this moment, these people seem to have forgotten that it was these bastards who just made them dare not look at them.

Zhao Suo's originally gloomy mood was swept away by this messy etiquette, and a rare smile appeared on his face.

"The official family, they are all people who have never seen the world. Please forgive the official family for their rudeness!" Xiao Ding said with a wry smile.

"No no no! I like the heart of a child!" Zhao Suo laughed loudly: "Pingshen, oh, get up, get up, you are all my warriors."

At the moment when these soldiers knelt down and kowtowed, Zhao Suo suddenly realized that these people are also his people, his soldiers!

"Thank you, the official!"

In the chaos of thanksgiving, the ten soldiers stood up, not knowing how to lower their heads, but raised their heads rudely and looked at the supreme ruler of Da Song.

The imperial censor in charge of royal etiquette flattened his mouth and turned his head to one side.He knew very well that even if he stepped forward and shouted loudly, these people didn't even know what to do!
Better not to waste your efforts.

And it doesn't seem that the officials are very angry.

"When you fight against the Liao people, do you also shout to kill the Liao dog like this?" Zhao Suo asked with interest: "Xiao Ding, don't talk, let them talk."

Xiao Ding was helpless and could only retreat to one side.

He Zheng glanced left and right, seeing that the eyes of several other people were all on him, and he was indeed the highest-ranking one among these people, and immediately clasped his fists and said, "Yes, they all shout like that."

"Well, very imposing!" Zhao Suo's eyes fell on the broken arm bone again, and at this moment, he still used a strap to tie his broken hand to the waist: "What's your name?"

"Go back to the official's house, my name is Cao Can!" Cao Can was so nervous that his voice changed.

"Doesn't it hurt?"

"It hurts, but I'm used to it!" Cao Can said, "It's nothing, it's just a small injury. We people have many scars on our bodies, and none of them are heavier than this."

This question and answer made Zhao Suo silent for a moment, then Fang said: "Remove the armor, let me see your scars!"

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, Xiao Ding nodded, and everyone helped each other to untie their armor and take off their inner clothes.

Looking at the ten scarred bodies, everyone present was speechless.

"Reward, each person will be rewarded with [-] yuan, one piece of silk!" Zhao Suo waved his hand.

"I would like to thank Tianen for them!" Seeing these subordinates kneeling down and thanking them in a mess, Xiao Ding could only come forward again to smooth things out.

"Children's heart, I feel very relieved, well, let them retreat, Xiao Qing stay, I still have something to ask you."

Zhao Suo said.

Watching the ten soldiers with their chests bare and happily descending, Zhao Suo turned around and said to Russell: "Except for the officials above the rank, everyone else is gone too!"

As soon as the decree came out, amidst the voices of resignation, the huge stand was instantly empty.

Zhao Suo got up, walked to the railing, looked at Yu Jian Banzhi who was cleaning up the mess in the school grounds, and said, "Xiao Qing, your name is Changqing, right?"

Xiao Ding was a little flattered, and quickly bowed: "Yes, the official family."

"Changqing, you have been in the north for a long time, and you have fought against the Liao people many times. The soldiers under your command are also very impressive, but I see that they are full of scars. They are all wounds from fighting against the Liao people, right?"

"Yes!"

"And they killed these bodyguards and soldiers like slaughtering chickens and dogs." Looking at the scene, Zhao Suo's voice became low: "Are they really that powerful?"

Xiao Ding's heart sank, don't want this fight, but it turned out to be counterproductive in the end, making the official family even more afraid of the Liao people.

"Officials, that's not the case." Xiao Ding said solemnly: "Take the soldiers of the Dragon Guards who are fighting against the final commander today. In fact, they are superior in horsemanship and martial arts, and are no worse than the commander's subordinates. They are physically strong, stronger than the commander's subordinates."

"Then why did you lose so badly? I thought it was you who lost!" Zhao Suo turned his head and stared at Xiao Ding.

"Guanjia, what they lack is not skill, but courage, blood, and experience. This is why the general suggested round battles in the memorial. They are too comfortable, and they don't even know how to fight."

"Courage, blood, experience!" Zhao Suo nodded: "You are right, today it seems that these people are indeed seriously inexperienced in the battle, and after suffering a heavy setback, their reaction speed and resilience are simply a mess. Sir, how are your casualties?"

"If you go back to the official's house, in three years, the Guangrui army led by the last general will change one third of the people."

"All dead?"

"No, [-]% of the dead, and [-]% of them had to withdraw from the army because of injuries." Xiao Ding said.

"That is to say, if we send the Dragon Guards to the front line to fight now, the casualties will be almost the same?"

Xiao Ding was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty, it's almost the same number."

"Thirty percent of casualties, in exchange for a brave army like Changqing's subordinates, is worth it." Zhao Suo said to himself.

"Your Majesty, when sending troops to the front line to fight in rounds, you don't have to let them fight the enemy alone, but cooperate with experienced frontier troops. This way, you can increase your experience and knowledge, and reduce the casualty rate."

"It makes sense!" Zhao Suo nodded again and again.

The conversation between Zhao Suo and Xiao Ding fell into the hearts of many high-ranking officials who stayed in the stands.

This is not a small matter, but a major event that will shake Bianliang.
