Chapter 43 The farce ended

I originally thought it would be a fight without suspense, and the result was indeed not suspenseful, but it was in contrast to what everyone expected.

Among these reserve generals in Xiyuan, the strong man is also considered to be a man with outstanding military strength. He has great physical strength and is quite skilled in wielding the sword in one hand. No one is sure of winning against him. Who would have thought that he would be able to win today?

He was trying to bring bad luck to Chen Mo and cut off his chance of success, but unexpectedly he was defeated by Chen Mo's three swords.

This contrast is really unacceptable.

On the general stage, Wang Yue's eyes lit up. Ordinary people would only think that Chen Mo's three swords were good, but in the eyes of Wang Yue, a master of swordsmanship, Chen Mo's three swords in a row showed great control over the sword.

It's not something that ordinary swordsmen can do. At least in terms of basics, Chen Mo has an extremely solid foundation.

"You..." The strong man covered his aching wrist, looked at Chen Mo with eyes filled with unwillingness, and gritted his teeth and said, "If there is a horse fight, you will definitely lose."

"But this is a foot battle." Chen Mo was a little speechless. If it were on the battlefield, even if it was a foot battle, with the opponent's physique and strength, this big spear could still exert great lethality. The sword moved lightly, and the battlefield

There wasn't much room for Chen Mo to move around. In terms of pure strength, not to mention that he himself was not as strong as the strong man. In terms of weapons alone, the sword was at a disadvantage. In addition, the strong man's right arm was weak, which allowed Chen Mo to win so easily.

.

Thanks to Qian Shuo, otherwise Chen Mo would have been in trouble this time. A strong man with sufficient strength, Chen Mo might not be able to easily dodge even the stab just now.

"The losers leave!" the soldier responsible for supervising the battlefield said coldly.

The strong man was naturally unwilling to give in. He couldn't compete with his brains, so he lost to this boy who was nearly ten years younger than him in the martial arts he was proud of. He felt that the people around him looked at him with a heavy look.

of ridicule.

"Do you dare to fight again?" The strong man figured it out. He should choose a sword. His right arm was weak and he couldn't use the sword smoothly at all. But if he used a wooden sword, Chen Mo would definitely not be his opponent.

"Don't dare, I still won, why do I have to do such a thing again?" Chen Mo threw it away casually, and the wooden sword landed accurately on the weapon rack. He retreated from the center without looking back, and the competition with the others also began.

The strong man looked at Chen Mo's back, clenched his fists, but was helpless. In the end, he could only let out an angry roar and walked angrily outside the school grounds.

Because everyone's arms were weak to varying degrees yesterday, today's battle was naturally unlikely to be so intense. In less than an hour, the battle was over.

"This is my Han general? How can he be so weak?" Qian Shuo stood on the general stage. He yawned throughout the fight. Although he didn't understand the art of war, he knew martial arts, which made him the emperor's companion.

As a close servant, he still has a good vision in this regard, which is why he decided to compete for generals. He understands this, and it is precisely for this reason that he is very dissatisfied with the performance of these people today.

"Shuo Gong!" Wang Yue said helplessly: "Yesterday in the bow and arrow competition, all the soldiers' arms were probably injured. If we fight again after a day, it will be difficult to use them no matter how strong we are."

"Seeing that all the troops are about to enter the West Garden. They are all so weak. How can we convince the crowd?" Qian Shuo was a little anxious. He now understood that he had done a stupid thing yesterday, but at this time, he was more worried about

Next, when the emperor inspected the three armies, he discovered this problem and punished him.

"Don't worry, Mr. Shuo, it's just that you have exhausted your strength. After three to five days of training, you will be fine." Wang Yue's smile was a little stiff.

"Can the competition continue as usual tomorrow?" Qian Shuo asked. There is not much time left. According to the emperor's wishes, these new generals must be appointed as soon as possible before deciding on the new commander of the Xiyuan Army.

Run in with the new army and take control of the actual military power of the new army before determining the candidate for the general.

"This..." Wang Yue heard this and said helplessly: "If there is a horse battle tomorrow, the result will probably be the same as today. Moreover, horse battles are not as easy to cause casualties as foot battles."

"Then it's not like fighting on horseback. Let's continue fighting on foot tomorrow!" Qian Shuo thought for a while and said: "But the rules need to be changed. One person challenges. The person who loses three people in a row is the official general. Everyone has three opportunities to challenge.

Until sixty people are selected.”

"That's fine." Wang Yue could only nod helplessly after hearing this. He already looked like a ghost. Qian Shuo's method of fighting this time was more reliable than before.

"However, we will need to use real weapons tomorrow." Qian Shuo added.

"Here!" Wang Yue sighed, bowed his hands, and went to make arrangements. Now that Gao Shun has given up his job, he can only handle these things.



"Use real weapons?" Cui Geng, Chen Mo and others looked a little ugly after receiving the order, gritted their teeth and said: "What does this eunuch think of our lives?"

Today, many people were injured with wooden weapons. If they were replaced with real weapons, Cui Geng would not be surprised at all if someone died on the battlefield tomorrow.

After all, swords and guns have no eyesight, not to mention that it is not ruled out that someone may take the opportunity to retaliate. Generally, in this case, even if you die in battle, you will not be held accountable.

"That's not the case. Now everyone is exhausted and their power is limited." Chen Mo sighed.

From Chen Mo's point of view, it is not necessarily that these people are really traitors. They are just a means for the emperor to deal with his relatives, balance the forces in the court, and allow him to do some things that he wants to do but cannot do.

To put it bluntly, these eunuchs are nothing more than weapons in the hands of the emperor.

But sometimes these people really succeed more than they fail. They were originally used to gather military power. After this incident, I am afraid that these people who were finally selected took control of the military power and may have feelings of resistance to the eunuchs and even the emperor.

Cui Geng sighed. Chen Mo's words were just to comfort people. Some people were injured today with wooden knives and wooden swords, let alone real guns and real swords?

The result of the competition the next day was just as Cui Geng expected, with someone being killed from the beginning.

It is said that everyone has three opportunities, but in the end, how many people actually used up these three opportunities?

Chen Mo, on the other hand, although young, acted quite steadily. He waited until the end before launching a challenge and defeating the last person. After this battle, only seventy-eight people survived out of the original one hundred and twenty.

Moreover, everyone was injured. Forty-two soldiers with good martial arts skills fell on the school field. Their blood to serve the country had been drained before they could be used. And the death of these people was only in exchange for Qianshuo.

It was just some dignity. When Gao Shun learned about this, he almost killed Qian Shuo with a knife. Fortunately, Wang Yue intervened and Chen Mo led a group of people to hold Gao Shun down, so the matter did not worsen.
