Only twenty of Zuo Xiao's one hundred cavalry guards came out. Tangning didn't say anything and said to a Beggar Clan disciple behind her: "You go ahead."
General Chen Zhonglang looked at him and asked, "I wonder what weapons your palace's guards need?"
The disciples of the Beggar Clan did not have to go into battle to kill enemies. They only learned stick skills. Later, when they joined the Tang Mansion as a guard, they turned to swordsmanship. For now, their most powerful skill is stick formation.
This is a military camp, with many weapons of all types, and they all chose eyebrow-raising sticks.
This kind of stick is only used in daily drills, and almost no one uses it on the battlefield. But today it is just a sparring exercise, not a fight. The twenty people on the Cavalry Guard also use wooden weapons.
During the real competition, these are also used. At that time, white powder will be applied on the weapons, and those who are stabbed in the vital parts will be eliminated.
The two camps were lined up at opposite ends of the martial arts arena. General Chen Zhonglang looked at Tang Ning and asked, "Can we start?"
Tangning nodded and said, "Let's get started."
General Chen Zhonglang waved his hand, and someone beat the war drum. The drum sound lasted for a while, and then a gong sounded, signaling the official start of the competition.
Twenty people from Zuo Xiao's cavalry guard rushed over together, ten of them were the first to be attacked, and there were five people on each side outflanking them.
On the other hand, the twenty Beggar Clan disciples were not in a hurry. They all held sticks in both hands and leaned forward, forming a strange position.
This formation, outsiders can't see any clues, looks scattered, but in fact it is a flexible and flexible formation. It can form a formation of three people, a formation of four people, a formation of five people, and a maximum of ten people. These twenty
People are two large mobile formations that can switch formations at any time according to the enemy's offensive.
Chen Zhonglang, who was just watching with contentment, began to change his expression when he saw these Beggar Clan disciples putting up this formation.
Although he still didn't notice anything strange about this, having lived in the military formation for a long time, his intuition told him that these twenty guards were not just ordinary people.
When the twenty Cavalry Guards rushed over in a certain formation, a Beggar Clan disciple at the front shouted loudly: "Three, three, four!"
After he finished speaking, the first ten-man formation quickly split into two three-man formations and a four-man formation. Before the few knights in front could react, stick shadows appeared on their upper, middle and lower sides.
boom!
The bodies of the three people flew out directly. If it were a real competition, they would have been eliminated by now.
The bodies of the other seven people were stagnant and did not respond, and another sound came from in front of them.
"Three talents and seven stars!"
The ten disciples of the Beggar Clan changed their formations again, with three defenses and seven attacks. The remaining seven knight guards were neither defensive nor offensive, and they immediately started to scramble.
As for the five people on the left and right wings, they had already been captured by Beggar Clan disciples who were divided into two Five Element Formations.
In just one confrontation, the twenty Cavalry Guards were defeated. Not only did the onlookers stare blankly, but even General Chen Zhonglang showed a look of shock on his face.
Only at this moment did he realize that these guards cooperated closely with each other, their formations were flexible and changeable, and they combined offense and defense. They seemed to be scattered while attacking, but they were actually a whole. They could easily concentrate the most powerful attacks.
At one point, if the opponent wants to break through any of their points, they will face a group of twenty people.
The captain who had just praised Haikou was dumbfounded. When he came back to his senses, his expression changed drastically, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go together!"
Twenty people versus eighty people, surrounded on all sides, but Tang Ning didn't panic at all.
The disciples of the Beggar Clan all started training from scratch. Although everyone's strength is not high, they are good at the art of combined attacks. Three times the gap with the enemy is not their limit.
Chen Zhonglang stood aside, looking more and more frightened.
The formation of these twenty people was really wonderful. With four times their fighting strength, they could not be defeated for a while. On the contrary, people were constantly being eliminated. From the beginning, they completely dominated the rhythm of the competition.
Judging from their performance, they are definitely not strong men, they only rely on this formation.
This shows that what they can do, the valiant cavalry guards can also do, or even do better. If the valiant cavalry guards can also learn this formation, what are the golden feather guards and what are the feather forest guards?
Together, they are no match for the Knight Riding Guards. From now on, the position of the head of the Sixteen Guards will be replaced.
Facing four times their number, although the Beggar Clan disciples were not defeated, it was still much more difficult than before. Two people had already been eliminated, but at the same time, only sixty of the eighty-strong Cavalry Guard remained.
Already.
"It's really incredible..."
Watching the number of twenty people continue to decrease, the Knight Riders were eliminated at a rate ten times faster than them. When there was no Knight Rider on the field, there were still five people standing in formation on the martial arts field. Chen Zhonglang was about to face them.
Lu was shocked and couldn't help but speak.
It would be fine if each of those guards had extraordinary skills. It is said that there are some powerful masters in the world who can defeat a hundred enemies without losing. But the problem is that they are all ordinary ordinary people, but they can do this, which can be called
Miracle.
He looked at Tangning and said, "We lost."
Tangning smiled and said, "It's a good loss..."
Talents that are not favored by others are considered dark horses. The weaker the Cavalry Guard, the higher the odds, and the more they earn. Who will be able to make trouble with the money?
General Chen Zhonglang was stunned and said uncertainly: "Losing... is good?"
Xiao Jue walked up to the group of dejected Cavalry Guards and asked calmly: "Are you convinced?"
Including the captain, all the knights lowered their heads, their faces were red, and they were speechless.
One hundred guards cannot defeat twenty, and if word spreads, they will lose all face.
But not only did they lose, they were also convinced that they were defeated. The other party did not use any tricks or cheating. They defeated them in an upright and upright manner.
Xiao Jue looked at them and asked again: "Do you want to win?"
Someone whispered: "Think."
Xiao Jue said in a deep voice: "Speak louder, I can't hear you!"
"Think!" This time more people spoke.
Xiao Jue glanced at them and asked: "You can't beat them, is it because you didn't eat in the morning? Do you want to compete again when you are full?"
The Cavalry Guards were already ashamed, but after being so stimulated by Xiao Jue, their breathing became rapid and their faces turned red.
Xiao Jue looked at them and said: "In this Sixteen Guards Competition, if you can reach Group A, each of you will be awarded ten taels of silver. If you can win the first place in the competition, each of you will be awarded one hundred taels."
"
When they heard "One Hundred Liang", many people in the venue had red eyes.
Except for the generals, most of the Forbidden Army were from the poor, and one hundred taels of silver was enough to cover their military pay for three years.
Xiao Jue looked at them again and asked: "Tell me now, do you want to win?"
"think!"
"think!"
"think!"
…
Everyone almost roared, and the sound resounded throughout the camp, making people's eardrums hurt.
Tang Ning did not expect that Young Master Xiao, who was usually so weak that he would put foundation on his face to cover his injuries when beaten by women, would actually do this.
The Cavalry Guard's morale was greatly boosted by his excitement. Morale is very important to an army. If they could have such morale before the competition, the result of the competition might be changed.
One hundred Cavalry Guards went to train as if they were fighting for blood. Xiao Jue walked up to Tang Ning and said proudly, "How is it?"
Tangning looked at him and reminded, "Go back and touch up the makeup on your face first, it's all gone."
Xiao Jue's expression changed slightly, and she returned to the tent to reapply her foundation. She did not forget to tell Tang Ning, "Don't tell anyone else about this matter."
It's all forced by the situation. It doesn't matter if a man puts on foundation. Tangning said casually: "Isn't it just that he put on foundation? Some people even wear women's clothes. This doesn't mean anything..."
Xiao Jue was startled, "Who is wearing women's clothes?"
"This is not important." Tang Ning waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about the powder on Young Master Xiao's face."
Xiao Jue looked at him and asked: "Who is wearing women's clothes?"
