Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 32

"Tai Shi Ci?" Bai Tu thought to himself: He is really a famous person!

No wonder he was flying side by side with Gan Ning as soon as he appeared on the stage - Gao Shun's limit was even lower.

"Haha, ignorant people, after seeing this beautiful Shu brocade, don't you know my identity, Gan Ning?" Gan Ning replied feeling very good about himself.

Gan Ning was from Shu County and came from a noble family. According to history, after crossing the Yangtze River and becoming addicted to water thieves, he returned to Shu County for a period of time and worked as a "juncheng", that is, an assistant to the prefect.

Later, he felt that the situation in Shu County was calm, so he left Shu to seek refuge with Liu Biao. Without being reused, he led his troops to join Wu, and he also flourished under Sun's command.

The first thing that comes to mind when mentioning Gan Ning is "boldness". The most famous deed in later generations was the robbery of Cao's camp by a hundred cavalry - leading more than a hundred elite soldiers, he dared to rob the camp!
However, although Gan Ning was very famous in Soochow, and Sun Quan repeatedly praised him in public, in the end his official rank was not prominent...

The main flaw is that Gan Ning's character has an obvious flaw, that is, he is "dog-faced" - no matter who he is, he always turns against anyone, often does not give face to the lord or the governor, is unruly and very emotional .

As for "arrogance and extravagance", it is considered a relatively minor shortcoming in comparison.

Gan Ning's family is also very wealthy in Shu County, and he is also very luxurious. He is even a model of luxury that has left allusions in history!

In Bai Tu's view, this is probably a manifestation of Gan Ning's excessive self-awareness...

Here, Gan Ning and Tai Shici had already been talking nonchalantly, and they fought fiercely on the river.

I saw two figures, one white and one red, criss-crossing on the river, accompanied by the sound of weapons clashing!

Taishi Cizhi used a long spear, but Gan Ning's weapons were more complicated, starting with a short halberd and a flying claw.

After clashing with Taishi Ci several times, he found that the short halberd was not strong enough, so he pulled out the single sword behind him, held the ring in the middle of the iron chain with his other hand, and swung the short halberd and flying claws at both ends!

Gan Ning held Tai Shi Ci in a stalemate with a single sword, and swung the iron chain with the other hand. He saw the short halberd and flying claws, as if they were alive, attacking Tai Shi Ci from tricky angles from time to time.

Single swords, short halberds, flying claws, iron chains... They all carry copper bells, which make people upset.

In addition, Gan Ning was obviously much more flexible in moving around on the river than Tai Shi Ci. In contrast, Tai Shi Ci always used the engine to keep himself from falling into the river, but Gan Ning was able to borrow strength from the river from time to time!

After several attempts, Taishi Ci became a little embarrassed...

But at this moment, Taishi Ci pulled away, and then suddenly shouted angrily: "Look at the arrow!"

I saw Taishi Ci pointing his spear at Gan Ning. At the same time, his hand slipped and he held the rear half of the spear with both hands. Then the front half of the spear suddenly split into two halves along the midline, and the cracked iron rod bounced left and right. The natural bends merged into the bow arms... leaving only the slender front gun body, still connected to the rear gun body.

Baitu: ...

Bai Tu has already adapted to this scene, and doesn't want to delve into how such a sophisticated device is made with the current level of technology!

Compared with a "bow", Taishi Ci's gun was more like a crossbow at this time, and it was a crossbow with an extra long body.

At the same time, Taishi Ci stretched out his arms. One arm was holding the gun body almost at the tail, and the other arm was pulling the rear string in front - that is to say, the length of the pull when the string was full was longer than that of the spear.

Bai Tu had also noticed that the arms of Taishi Ci's exoskeleton mecha were clearly extended at this time. At the same time, he also recalled Taishi Ci's evaluation in history - ape arms are good at shooting, and the strings are accurate.

Obviously he is best at "shooting", but... Bai Tu understands the truth, but this is too long, right?Even in terms of the proportions of the limbs of the exoskeleton, it is too long!

Then, on the open bow string, a laser arrow beam condensed - Bai Tu was now used to it and understood it. Although this thing looked bluffing, in fact, if it is used well, its power is not much different from that of ordinary bows and arrows. , used well... it is only equivalent to a high-strength bow and arrow, far less powerful than the imagined laser cannon!
But Tai Shici obviously used it very well, even if Gan Ning tried to block with his sword, he was thrown into the river with one arrow.

Gan Ning, who fell into the water, did not come out immediately, but Tai Shici did not show any slackness and relief. Instead, he stared at the river with his tiger eyes, and saw waves scurrying from time to time in the river. Obviously, Gan Ning was not unable to come up, but They are using the river water as a cover-up.

"Humph!" Taishi Ci snorted coldly, and after looking at the river for a while, he shot another arrow.

I saw the laser arrow falling into the river, like a big stone hitting the water, making a loud "pop" sound and exploding water.

Plop, plop, plop!Two arrows, three arrows...

But he still failed to hit Gan Ning, and random waves still appeared in the water from time to time.

However, seeing that the battle situation was stalemate, the thieves who were beating gongs and drums to cheer for Gan Ning now became a little more nervous and suppressed. They all stared at the battle situation, but they had no intention of intervening to disturb the duel between the two.

Suddenly, the water surface around Taishi Ci suddenly swept up in a circle of waves, and then exploded into a water curtain. It looked like Taishi Ci was surrounded in the center of a fountain!
At the same time, a red figure, taking advantage of Taishi Ci's sight being blocked, instantly jumped out of the water and came behind Taishi Ci...

Before anyone else had time to remind him, the red-armored Gan Ning had already slashed at Tai Shici, who was covered by the water curtain, with both swords!
Fortunately, at this critical moment, Taishi Ci noticed it without anyone else reminding him. He turned around and shot Gan Ning's sword in time.

However, at this moment, Taishi Ci suddenly saw Gan Ning curling up the corner of his mouth and sneering slightly, and his pupils suddenly condensed. Through the reflection in Gan Ning's pupils, Taishi Ci saw the rapidly rotating iron chains of the two soldiers, spinning towards him. Coming from behind!
It turned out that what had just set off a circle of water was Gan Ning's iron chain connecting the short halberd and flying claw.

Seeing that the rotating iron chain had already circled behind Taishi Ci, if he didn't react, I'm afraid Taishi Ci would not be killed by the halberd, but would also be tied up with the iron chain!

At the critical moment, Taishi Ci stayed calm and used a clever move to press Gan Ning's single sword with his spear. The engine also started and took advantage of the momentum to turn over. He was about to overturn Gan Ning on his head and feet. At the same time, he took advantage of the opportunity. Before Gan Ning could use up his strength, the spear with its blade was pressed against the rolled-up iron chain...

Clang, clang, clang--after a crisp sound, the iron chain was interrupted by the swords and guns, and following the circling force, the two people's swords and guns were tied together.

The short halberd at the end was placed on Tai Shici's neck. After the flying claw at the other end was retracted, it was about to touch Gan Ning's eyeball!

However, the two of them still refused to withdraw their strength and continued to fight with their inseparable weapons. It was already a matter of life and death...

"Not bad!"

Bai Tu looked nervous and was startled by Lu Bu who suddenly made a sound next to him. It turned out that Lu Bu had sobered up at some point and was also watching the fight between Tai Shi Ci and Gan Ning on the deck.

Come to think of it, it's weird to be able to sleep with such a big movement!
"Father, these two are rare generals. It would be a pity if they died here..." Bai Tu said quickly.

"Haha, don't panic."

I saw Lu Bu spreading his ape arms, and there was a vague totem of a black bird flickering behind him, and red light came out through his clothes. At the same time, no military symbols were used, but Lu Bu's stretched left arm was already covered with a layer of red armor...
