Chapter 212 Went to Anfeng, Wang Jichu met all his colleagues, and had a banquet for Wenqin in Yangzhou to fight Zhuge's birthday
In this way, the brothers Lu Zhongxiong and Lu Yan settled down temporarily in Xiahou Mansion.
Uncle Wang Ji and Wang Boyu, who had been appointed by Cao Shuang as the governor of Anfeng County in Yangzhou some time ago, had also arrived in Yangzhou and were preparing to meet with his superior, Yangzhou Governor Zhuge Dan, and other fellow governors from nearby counties under the rule of Yangzhou.
This is a banquet in name only to welcome Wang Ji to take office.
But 3 In fact, Zhuge Dan had been planning for this banquet for more than half a month. Some people would have their tails raised to the sky if they didn't make arrangements.
When he thought of this, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but turn his eyes to the Lujiang prefect and champion general Wen Qin and Wen Zhongruo who were feasting at the table.
This look was like thunder and lightning. It actually made the daring Wen Qin startled.
Zhuge Dan did not have an attack immediately, but continued to endure it. After all the guests had finished drinking and eating, Wang Ji, who had just taken office, was too drunk. After returning home, Zhuge Dan turned towards the hidden place that could only be seen from the angle where he was sitting. The light-armored doormen behind the screens on both sides winked.
These knights and knights were some of the knights and knights recruited in the Huaiyang area after Zhuge Dan came to Yangzhou, as well as the sons of good families. They were all heroes who were as good as ten, with strong martial arts skills and great love and righteousness.
Zhuge Dan personally brought a glass of wine to the drunken Wen Qin.
As soon as Wen Qin saw this posture, he knew that Zhuge Dan was coming to propose a toast.
Since he was favored by Cao Shuang, the general of the dynasty, and he was highly skilled in martial arts and had served as the prefect of Lujiang County for a long time, so he was very senior. Therefore, Wen Qin did not doubt Zhuge Dan's respect for him at this moment.
After all, Zhuge Dan was also a rising star trusted by the general. Based on the idea that friends of friends are also friends, Wen Qin certainly had no reason to be wary of Zhuge Dan at a banquet.
This is exactly what Zhuge Dan wants to see. He wants to deal with Wen Qin, but everyone knows that Wen Qin is highly skilled in martial arts and extremely brave. Even if there are dozens of elites, there is no guarantee that Wen Qin can be easily defeated. He captured.
What's more, Wen Qin was only willing to restrain his behavior a little when he went to see the emperor and entered the capital. At other times, he would not leave his body for a moment with a 48-pound euphorbia, which also made Zhuge Dan very worried. fear.
But at this moment, the unsuspecting Wen Qin was already drunk. It was hard to say whether he could steadily pick up the halberd at this moment, let alone his extraordinary martial arts at this moment. Zhuge Dan, who had not drank much, had a head-on confrontation.
Although Zhuge Dan had greeted the few knights and followers hidden on both sides of the screen in advance, he did not intend to let those followers come out to help him unless it was absolutely necessary.
He decided that today he would personally demonstrate his methods in front of the prefecture officials from several other counties.
After all, if he personally defeated Wen Qin, who was known to be extremely brave, and taught him a lesson, he believed that from now on, there would never be such a thing like officials taking the lead in oppressing the people in Yangzhou.
These thoughts just ran through Zhuge Dan's mind quickly. Soon, Zhuge Dan came to Wen Qin's case with the glass of wine:
"General Wen, I have heard of your name since I came to Yangzhou. You have guarded Lujiang these years and defeated the Wu army many times. I dedicate this glass of wine to you!"
"Thank you so much, envoy!"
Wen Qin was dazzled by drinking at this moment, and took the jue from Zhuge Dan's hand. Zhuge Dan, as the governor of a state, went down to the hall to toast him in person. Wen Qin, who liked face, naturally would not be unappreciative, so he said "gu".
Drink up the glass of wine.
Zhuge Dan, who was filled with anger when he thought of the tragic death of the people in Yangzhou, did not get angry directly at this moment. He still held back his anger and said with a smile on his face:
"To be honest, General Wen, when he was born in Luoyang, he also visited famous masters in the Central Plains and learned how to use a pair of iron whips. With these two iron whips, I can't say that I have no opponents in Luoyang, but I still have some confidence.
Since coming to Yangzhou, I have always heard that the general swept Yangzhou with a forty-eight-pound iron halberd, and Jianghuai was invincible. Today, Zhuge Dan is not talented and wanted to take advantage of this grand event to have a writing competition with General Wen. I don’t know that the general
how about?"
Even if Wen Qin was not drunk, he would not refuse such a request based on his character. What's more, he was already drunk at this moment, so he was naturally even more arrogant:
"Hahaha, since your envoy has such an elegant intention, how dare Wen Qin disobey him?"
"good!"
Seeing Wen Qin's agreement, Zhuge Dan waved his hand to the servant beside the case. The servant understood and took Zhuge Dan's useful double iron whips and two sets of body-protecting soft armor from outside the hall.
Wen Qin took his halberd and looked up, only to see Zhuge Dan's pair of iron whips, which were longer than ordinary iron whips and weighed about twenty kilograms in total.
The servant quickly moved the tables of the guests in the main hall to the backyard outside the house. The two put on their protective armors and went to the backyard. Each held weapons and started to confront each other.
The retainers arranged by Zhuge Dan also disguised themselves as servants and quietly came to the backyard, ready to take action at any time.
"Your Majesty, I'm offended!"
Wen Qin, who was staggering due to drunkenness, picked up the forty-eight-pound halberd and attacked Zhuge Dan!
Zhuge Dan saw that Wen Qin was approaching fiercely, so he naturally did not dare to underestimate the enemy. Seeing that Wen Qin's move was powerful and heavy, and also carried the sound of howling wind, Zhuge Dan subconsciously dodged to the side.
When Wen Qin saw that he had missed a hit, he snorted coldly, swung his halberd and struck at him. Zhuge Dan saw that he could not completely dodge this move, so he could only muster up his courage and dance away twelve on the left and sixteen on the right.
A pair of iron whips weighing twenty-eight pounds were swung towards Wen Qing's halberd.
This move was obviously a head-to-head attack, and the several prefects watching the battle were very nervous, fearing that one of the two would accidentally spill blood on the spot. If that were the case, none of them present would be able to explain to the court.
.
The two weapons collided with each other, and after a loud bang, they each took a few steps back.
Zhuge Dan resisted the severe pain of the tiger's mouth, did not let go of the weapon, and tried to stand firm. He thought in his heart: This Wen Qin is indeed worthy of his reputation. It seems impossible for him to win easily today.
Wen Qin was also very surprised at this time. He originally thought that his martial arts skills were not much different from Guan Yunchang, who was known as the "enemy of ten thousand people" back then. But today, Zhuge Dan could actually use a pair of iron whips that were not as heavy as his own weapons.
In a head-to-head situation, he was tied with himself. It seemed that there was someone else, so he couldn't underestimate the enemy too much.
After the two calmed down, they moved around in circles again and started to confront each other.
Wen Qin saw the right moment, waved the halberd in his hand from side to side, and swung it towards Zhuge Dan again.
Although Zhuge Dan still chose to evade this time, he did not show the panic he felt when he evaded for the first time.
Zhuge Dan, who had already suffered a small loss just now, naturally would not choose to fight head-on. However, he no longer planned to passively defend and evade, but chose to carefully observe Wen Qin's flaws and then look for opportunities to break them.
At this time, it was already the third round of the fight between the two, and Zhuge Dan had naturally observed some clues.
Wen Qin's halberd technique was indeed exquisite. It was both flexible and incredibly powerful. However, Zhuge Dan discovered that Wen Qin was a little too confident in his martial arts. This confidence even reached the point where he was somewhat arrogant.
degree.
This is not to say that Wen Qin still underestimated the enemy at this moment. This kind of arrogance that Zhuge Dan saw should have become a deep-rooted habit when Wen Qin became a master of martial arts.
This habit is reflected in every move. Every time Wen Qin swings the iron halberd, he will not change his moves. He will try his best to exert his strength to the extreme in every move.
This is a sign of not leaving yourself any leeway.
Zhuge Dan has been practicing martial arts for many years and is well versed in this art. Generally speaking, when facing an enemy in battle, a master of swordsmanship will pay attention to the enemy's status anytime and anywhere. If he cannot hit the enemy with one sword move, then this master of swordsmanship will
He will definitely not wait until his moves become old, but will save his energy and change his moves immediately. Only in this way, his energy will not be consumed at will by the enemy.
But Wen Qin did not do this at this moment. Wen Qin did not use people to control the halberd, but people followed the halberd. Although this style of play is suitable for heavy weapons, the shortcomings of not caring about the future are also obvious.
These thoughts had already appeared in Zhuge Dan's mind in the blink of an eye. At this moment, Wen Qin's fifth move, which was as powerful as the top of a mountain, had already struck Zhuge Dan's left shoulder like a thunderbolt.
!
Zhuge Dan saw the opportunity and turned around to avoid the big halberd. At the same time, he also waved the double whips in his hands. At this moment, Wen Qin's all-out move had been used up. At this moment, Wen Qin was at his most vulnerable.
.I saw Zhuge Dan turning around like a fish swimming in the air, wielding a pair of five-foot-long iron whips, and swung them towards Wen Qin's left shoulder!
Zhuge Dan saw that he was about to succeed, but Wen Qin was unprepared and did not intend to kill him, so he instantly released seven percent of his strength.
Even so, Zhuge Dan's powerful and heavy move is still extremely powerful.
There was a crisp "click" sound, and Wen Qin's left arm was dislocated. At this moment, Wen Qin was in unbearable pain, and he started wailing while lying on the ground.
All the guests present here were surprised and admired Zhuge Dan. They did not expect that he would defeat the invincible Wen Qin in less than five rounds!
Zhuge Dan's expression changed at this moment, he pointed at Wen Qin who was in unbearable pain and cursed:
"Wen Zhongruo! As a parent official of Lujiang County, you don't want to care for the people and benefit one side. Instead, you act arrogantly and bully others, causing the people of Lujiang County to fear officials like tigers. Do you know your crime!"
At this moment, Wen Qin was shocked, angry, angry and scared. He was defeated by Zhuge Dan in only five rounds. He was eager to take over his shoulder. At this moment, he had to surrender to Zhuge Dan in front of all his Yangzhou colleagues:
"My sin is extremely heinous. I already know my mistake. I will definitely change my ways and never bully the people again. Please forgive me!"
When Zhuge Dan saw this, he took Wen Qin's arms.
From then on, although Wen Qin hated Zhuge Dan even more, he was also really afraid of Zhuge Dan. Although he did not change his habit of being arrogant, he never slaughtered the people under his rule at will like before.
