Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 179 Choice and Effort

Huan Yuan looked at Liang Xiao who was bowing on horseback, feeling very complicated, and couldn't speak for a moment.

After Guangling farewell, Liang Xiao's attendant Yan Zhu came to Kuaiji, he went to Wangjiang post to ambush, and attacked Liang Xiao and others.Liang Xiao immediately fought back and hit him in the shoulder with an arrow.At that time, he still felt very proud that Liang Xiao had made rapid progress, both his reaction speed and shooting speed had improved significantly, so he was not only not angry, but even praised Liang Xiao.

However, as Liang Xiao's performance became more and more brilliant, he couldn't laugh anymore.

Especially when he learned that Liang Xiao had shot Jing Tian to death.

Originally this was where he should be most proud. Fifty steps away, across the tent, Liang Xiao shot Jing Tian with two arrows.Even with the elements of luck, this raid was remarkable.

But Jing Tian's death brought the conflict between him and Jing Zhao to light.The pain of bereavement made Jing Zhao lose his mind, and confronted him everywhere, Jing Zhao's little wisdom was also shot by Liang Xiao's two arrows.Otherwise, with Jing Zhao's experience, it is impossible not to see the danger of retreating along the Songjiang River.

Now, he watched helplessly as the army was going to be defeated, but there was nothing he could do.And the instigator is the favorite student in front of him.

Should he praise him or scold him?
Before deciding to go out to fight Liang Xiao, Huan Yuan made a lot of predictions, but when things came to an end, he couldn't say a word.He was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head. "not good."

"Master, do you know why it's not good?"

"not good."

"That's because your choice was wrong." Liang Xiao shook the reins and walked a little closer to Huan Yuan.However, he didn't reach Huan Yuan's chariot, he stopped thirty steps away from the chariot, and turned his horse's head, facing Huan Yuan and the others sideways, ready to retreat at any time. "Choice is more important than hard work. Once you choose the wrong direction, the harder you work, the farther you will be from your goal."

Seeing Liang Xiao stopped thirty steps away, Huan Yuan felt sore in his heart.Liang Xiao refused to approach because he did not trust him enough.Liang Xiao dared to get so close because Zhong Liqi had been persuaded by Liang Xiao and would not make a move.Otherwise, even with a distance of thirty steps, Zhong Liqi still had a chance to capture Liang Xiao alive.

One is the most proud disciple, the other is the most loyal subordinate, both of them are alienated, could it be that I am wrong.

Should I choose Liu Ju?

"master……"

"You don't need to say more. I'm not here today to discuss with you." Huan Yuan raised his hand and interrupted Liang Xiao.If he continued, he worried that he would waver and be persuaded by Liang Xiao. "I want to talk to you about shooting."

Liang Xiao raised his eyebrows and couldn't help laughing. "You... discuss shooting with me?"

Huan Yuan was a little embarrassed, with a straight face, and said nothing.

Liang Xiao leaned down and lay on the saddle, looking at Huan Yuan with a smile on his face. "I want to know, master, what do you want from me?"

"What, you admit defeat?"

"You are my master, how can I beat you." Liang Xiao pouted. "Don't say I don't have the strength right now, even if I do, I'll be courteous. Don't you think so?"

"Since you have self-knowledge and know that you are not my opponent, then leave. Don't wander around the camp anymore, lest you ruin your life."

"this one?"

"That's it." Huan Yuan coughed: "If you don't listen to my good advice, don't blame me for disregarding the friendship between master and student."

Liang Xiao straightened up, raised his hand, plucked the bowstring, and smiled. "Then I won't compare with you."

"What?" Huan Yuan was stunned for a moment.

"I said I don't compare myself to you." Liang Xiao raised his voice. "I don't accept your conditions." As he spoke, he steered his horse away, raised his hands, and laughed loudly. "If you want to take my life, come on, catch up with me first."

Huan Yuan was speechless, watching Liang Xiao and the others gallop away and disappeared at the end of the road.Liang Xiao didn't accept his fault, and the competition ended without a problem.Asking him to go after Liang Xiao is undoubtedly asking for humiliation.He suddenly felt that there was nothing he could do about this disciple Liang Xiao.

"General, what should we do?" Zhong Liqi coughed and reminded.

"Divide the Houyi battalion into two teams. You and I will each lead a team to protect His Highness and General Yu Shan respectively." Huan Yuan sighed softly, "There must be no loss."

……

Liang Xiao galloped lightly on his horse, and Li Jiao walked side by side with him. "What did your master say?"

"He wants to compete with me."

Li Jiao was surprised. "real?"

"Well, it seems that his life is not easy, and he wants to use his archery skills to force me to be an ally of gentlemen and stay away from their camp." Liang Xiao laughed lightly. "This just shows that our riots put a lot of pressure on them. Liu Ju probably couldn't sleep well, so he had to make a bad move."

Li Jiao rolled his eyes and laughed. "I'm afraid not only Liu Ju, but any general in this camp can't sleep well. With you, a sound shooter, who can sleep peacefully. There are dozens of valuable targets, but you have only one master. It is impossible to guard against." what."

"I only have one master, but we have eleven." Liang Xiao looked at Li Jiao. "Without me, you can still complete the task. Without my master... Hehe, it's a pity that a talent like my master has become a personal guard. This Liu Ju is really blind. If he doesn't die, who will die?"

Li Jiao was triumphant, and the officials beside him laughed in unison, and even Wei Qing showed a relaxed smile.It's a great feeling to win more with less and still be able to handle it with ease.The doctor mingled in the crowd and was infected by the emotions of the officials, so he also smiled happily.

"It's almost time, let's go back to Fuboli."

"Are you going back now?" Li Jiao couldn't stop thinking.He was unwilling to retreat before hunting a valuable target.

"They're even more nervous when we're not here." Liang Xiao smirked and said, "Think about it, my master has searched everywhere, but he can't find us. Will he be suspicious, let alone be careless?"

Li Jiao rolled his eyes and nodded repeatedly. "Ah Xiao, it makes sense, but you still have a lot of ghost ideas. It's like walking in the middle of the night, always suspicious of someone behind you, the more you think about it, the more afraid you become. Hehe, interesting, interesting."

Everyone chattered and rushed all the way to Fuboli.Along the way, they attacked two groups of Minyue scouts and returned to Fuboli smoothly.

……

Fuboli is heavily guarded.

Still a few miles away, Liang Xiao saw the knights climbing up to watch. As soon as he saw them, the knight immediately waved the flag in his hand and sent out a signal.Immediately afterwards, more and more people gathered from different directions. Although they didn't show any hostility, they were just curious, but it also made Liang Xiao feel the tense atmosphere before the Fuboli battle.

A knight greeted him and led Liang Xiao and others inside.They held bows and crossbows, did not wear armor, and their mounts were not real war horses. Compared with infantry, their speed undoubtedly had a qualitative leap.

In a few days, Fuboli was renovated. A wooden gate was added to the inner door, and the outside was coated with thick mud.A figure holding a bow and crossbow is looming.The inner door was only half as big and could only accommodate one person. Liang Xiao and others had to get off their horses to go in.There is an extra row of houses inside the inner gate, and about twenty young and strong men are busy gathering piles of dry firewood.

In the open space between the houses, a group of men were practicing martial arts with swords, shields and long halberds.A group of women and half-grown children were holding various weapons and watching with concentration.From time to time, people picked and carried things, lined up, and walked along the base of the wall in an orderly manner.Seeing Liang Xiao and the others, they all stepped aside and bowed in greeting.Although he didn't speak, his smile was bright and warm, revealing an indescribable intimacy.

The Lang officials unconsciously puffed up their chests, grinned, and you gave me a hug, and I gave you a hug, showing a bit of shyness.

Liang Xiao followed the knight to Wu Qianqiu's house, and Wang Xing was standing at the door to greet him.Wang Xing first conveyed Yan Zhu's order, and then said: "Don't worry, everyone. From now on until the end of the war, I will not return to the city. You can go back if you want, and it doesn't matter if you don't want to."

Liang Xiao didn't say anything.He is not Wang Xing, so he cannot ignore Yan Zhu.Yan Zhu really had a problem, none of them could escape.Although it is unlikely that Yan Zhu will act alone, people these days are more or less impulsive. If he is eager to make contributions, he must come to the battle in person.

"Zhongqing, should you go back with Brother Qin? It is true that the envoy cannot be without protection. If your lord needs us all to go back, you can send a letter to Fuboli, and we will go back together."

"Why?" Before Wei Qing could speak, Qin Ge became anxious.With the new harness, he can hold a halberd in close combat. He has just tasted the sweetness of doubling his combat power. Seeing that the battle is approaching, it is a good opportunity to show his skills. At this time, let him return to Yan Zhu's side to be a guard. Liang Xiao and the others are galloping across the battlefield, chasing death and north?

There is no such thing as playing.

"Brother Qin, there are serious and serious matters. There will be more opportunities to fight in the future. Right now, the most important thing is to protect your lord." Liang Xiao patiently persuaded: "In case something happens to your lord, where will the court face it?"

"I'm so mad." Qin Ge stomped his feet and sighed.

"Haha, I said you don't have to be angry, I did your task for you." Li Jiao patted Qin Ge's shoulder gloatingly. "You can't blame Ah Xiao for this matter, who told you to be doctors. We don't need to go back, you must go back."

"When did I blame Ah Xiao?" Qin Ge angrily shook off Li Jiao's hand. "I don't need your hypocrisy. Let me make you happy this time. See you next time on the battlefield to see who is the real master."

"It's a deal, I'll wait for you." Li Jiao was not annoyed, and teased Qin Ge with winks. "Whoever breaks his promise is a dog."

Qin Ge looked up to the sky and sighed. "It's so easy to earn some family wealth, and it's all cheap for a few losers."

The Lang officials laughed.

……

After sending Wei Qing and the aggrieved Qin Ge to death, Liang Xiao, Li Jiao and Wang Xing urgently negotiated a war.

Wang Xing told Liang Xiao that he had been authorized by Dou Qufei to call all the people of Wu County to fight.However, because of Yan Zhu's words, the loot has to be distributed a lot.These trophies were originally snatched by the Minyue people from the Wu surname, and now they not only have to snatch them back, but also distribute part of them to ordinary people, and they have accumulated a lot of opinions.

"Master Yan...isn't he a local? How could he..." Liang Xiao calmly provoked Wang Xing's anger.

He no longer expected to be friends with Yan Zhu, and asked Wei Qing and Qin Ge to go back first, on the one hand to prevaricate Yan Zhu and give him a higher level, on the other hand, it also wanted to arouse Qin Ge's displeasure.In the future, in front of the emperor, Qin Ge will definitely complain and won't let Yan Zhu casually slander them.

"Hmph! He was originally a lowly concubine, but he had a bit of literary talent. The governor took pity on him, so he recommended him as a virtuous man. I didn't expect that he would forget his own details as soon as he was proud, and he would actually show his prestige in front of the township party. Even In front of the government lord, it is ridiculous to show the majesty of the emissary of the emperor from time to time."

Liang Xiao smiled. "Mr. Doufu...didn't say anything?"

"What can Mr. Dou say? The Dou family today is not the Dou family in the past." Wang Xing stopped talking and immediately changed the subject. "Liang Jun, Li Jun, without the main force of Wu County, we can rely on limited strength. Both of you are young knights who are proficient in the art of war. I hope you can take care of them. If you can help us drive out the bandits, Wu County will be restored to peace. , the people of Wu County will definitely not forget your great kindness."

Liang Xiao and Li Jiao exchanged glances and clasped their fists generously. "Since we have chosen to join the army, it is our duty to defend the land and keep the people safe, and to kill thieves and repel bandits. However, the problem of insufficient troops... how to solve it?"
