Chapter 559 Long skills, don't get busy with the grass
When Xiao Tang was about to persuade Lu Fang and Guo Sheng to give up, the two halberds in the hands of the two people, who were fighting regardless of the winner and the loser, were entangled together. The golden leopards at the ends of the two halberd blades were
The tail, the velvet ribbons on the five-colored flags of money were all tangled together, and even though Lu Fang and Guo Sheng tried their best to pull, they couldn't separate them.
Xiao Tang frowned slightly when he saw it, and thought to himself that although Lu Fang and Guo Sheng both lost their capital in business and could not return home, they could only gather about a hundred refugees as their subordinates to find a place to live in a village.
But it can also be seen that the two of them are young at heart, and they also like to "fashion". Not only do they have to wear good clothes, armor, and weapons, but they also have to look good...
After all, weapons such as halberds were mostly used in palace ceremonials during the Song Dynasty. It would be fine if they were more fancy, but the halberds used by Lu Fang and Guo Sheng were each equipped with quite slender leopard tail velvet ribbons and other objects.
It does seem to be more popular, but any veteran who has experienced several battles on the battlefield, looking at the outfits of Lu Fang and Guo Sheng, will know that they are young children who have never experienced real swords and guns.
Generally, long weapons usually use spike-shaped ornaments made of silk, thread, etc. as spear tassels to prevent the enemy's blood from flowing down the gun barrel and causing the gun barrel to slip, causing the hands to be unable to grasp the gun barrel firmly (so the gun tassel is also
Often called "blood blocking"), it can also serve the purpose of confusing the enemy's sight. However, Lu Fang and Guo Sheng's halberds are connected to long leopard tail velvet flags, which are good-looking, but if they kill with their own hands on the battlefield,
After killing some enemies, these flashy accessories may have turned into a bloody mess. Not only will they look very awkward, but the disadvantages may be greater than the benefits.
What's more, Lu Fang and Guo Sheng would not be in such a predicament just once. In the book, after their leopard tail flags were cut off by an arrow, they were still unable to use their skills due to the long tail decoration tied to the back of their weapons.
This is already the case when the generals are duel, but if it is a bloody battle between the rebels...
Xiao Tang thought in his mind, and winked at Hua Rong. Hua Rong understood, he stretched out his hand and pulled the reins to hold the horse. While taking the bow from the flying fish bag with his left hand, he also pulled out the arrow kettle with his right hand.
An arrow came, and when Hua Rong put it on the arrow and filled the bow, he glanced at the arrow that was entangled in a leopard tail velvet flag and immediately "swish", a cold light suddenly appeared, and the entangled leopard immediately
The tail velvet is shot off in one shot!
Caught off guard, Lu Fang and Guo Sheng were almost thrown off their horses due to the force of force. After they took a breath and calmed down, they looked at Hua Rong again. They both held up their hands in admiration and said, "This brother, who is extremely skilled in the magic of arrows."
!”
Lu Fang looked at Guo Sheng again, wiped the sweat from his head, and then said: "Guo Shengzhuang... Haha, now it's time to call you Brother Guo Sheng. Brother, your halberd skills are indeed amazing.
I can't win you."
Guo Sheng laughed and said with a smile: "Brother Lu Fang, when you say that I am good at halberds, aren't you just praising yourself in a different way? But I can't beat you. It's really hard for us to tell the winner!
Lu Fang smiled when he saw this. At this time, Xiao Tang had already rushed to the two of them. He said: "Two brothers, although you are strong-blooded and martial people, I'm afraid you don't have any ability to face the enemy in battle."
Experience. Just now you can understand clearly that if my brother Hua Rong hadn't shot off the leopard tail flag on your halberd with an arrow, I don't know how long the two brothers would have been entangled...
What's more, brothers usually compete with each other in martial arts in their spare time. If they really want to fight to the death with their opponents, especially on the battlefield where the two armies are fighting, they must be careful to guard against the swords and spears coming from all directions.
.After all, when fighting in the green forest, you will inevitably have to conquer and kill. I also hope that the two brothers can be more cautious and prudent."
Lu Fang and Guo Sheng pondered for a while, among which Lu Fang was the first to say: "What I learned from my brother is that although I have studied hard and practiced hard, I only encountered some incompetent boys when trafficking goods in the past, and there is no such thing as Guo Sheng today."
Brother Sheng is so skilled and the world is so big, how can I not know that there is a world outside the world and there are people outside the world? My brother is also thinking about my future safety, so of course I understand."
Guo Sheng also nodded and said: "In the past, when I was in Jialing, Zhang Tiha taught me how to use the halberd. He also said that I only care about making the halberd look good. Not only will I not win against real heroes in the green forest, but also if I am really seen by the soldiers who are good at fighting in the army.
, On the contrary, they laughed at me for being a mere showman and not of much use in battle! At that time, I was working as a mercury merchant. I just admired the halberd skill learned by Xue Rengui, the Duke of Pingyang County in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, I did not use Zhang's halberd skills.
Take Tihath's teachings to heart. Today, I am taught by my brother again, and I understand his painstaking efforts."
Xiao Tang nodded, and then said: "One of you is from Tanzhou, Jinghu South Road, and the other is from Jialing, Xichuan. It was only because you were life-saving when you were doing business that you lost your capital and ended up living in Shandong."
.The two brothers are willing to join me in Dazhai. Of course I am willing to talk to you heart to heart, but you must have relatives and family members in your hometown. You must live in the grass and green forests. After all, you have a bad reputation in the world...
So Brother Lu Fang and Brother Guo Sheng, should I send some men to accompany you back home to invite your relatives to go up the mountain so that you can serve them, or are you just becoming strong men out of desperation?
I’ll pay you some money and return to your hometown to resume your old business. Have you two thought it through?”
At first, Lu Fang and Guo Sheng only respected the good reputations of Erlong Mountain and Qingfeng Mountain, so they willingly joined Dazhai. But now, hearing what Xiao Tang said, the gratitude in their hearts suddenly overflowed.
born!
Ordinary green forest grass bandits who could recruit some useful helpers would have long ago coaxed and deceived them, and even used some underhand tactics to get them to join the bandit. However, the big leader wearing a Xiezhi mask in front of him was indeed putting himself in his shoes.
For the sake of both of them! Lu Fang and Guo Sheng felt inconvenient to mention it for a moment. Instead, the elder brother in front of them first thought that their hometowns were in Hunan and Sichuan respectively. They were far away from Shandong and Hebei. If they really died here,
Strong man, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reunite with my family in the future...
It is said that a man dies for his bosom friend, but we are just acquaintances with the heroes from the two mountains of Qingzhou, but this brother in front of us understands our concerns so much, how can we refuse to sell our two lives to him!?
After the two of them had the same idea, Lu Fangxian said: "Brother misses me so much, and I am so grateful! My father and mother passed away early, and although I have several brothers, they are all doing different jobs to make a living. If you call me
When I return to my hometown, I have no face to go see you... I am willing to follow all the heroes up the mountain to join the gang! Why bother brother?"
Guo Sheng sighed and said: "Although my father is still alive, he is supported by my two elder brothers. My younger brother's family is from a scholarly family in Jialing. Among my nephews and descendants, I am the only one who is good at martial arts and can do martial arts."
I have to be a merchant to make a living... My father and brother are quite prejudiced against me. If they knew that not only did I lose all my money in business, but I also started a business with no capital in the green forest, they would probably want me again.
My father is so angry that I have hurt my body. My younger brother is a person who cherishes the loyalty of the world. When he has the opportunity, of course he will go to honor Gaotang, but for now, it is better to just follow my brother to join the family. This will make me, Guo Sheng, happy!"
Hearing what Lu Fang and Guo Sheng said, Xiao Tang felt relieved, but he thought that Xiao Wenhou and Sai Rengui were young and had a lot of room to improve their martial arts. Now these two people have been hanging out in the green forest for a long time.
Compared with the strongman leaders, they also suffer from having too little actual combat experience, and there are currently no experts who are good at using weapons like halberds in several cottages to teach their martial arts skills...
After thinking for a while, Xiao Tang suddenly had a thought in his mind. He made up his mind and said to Lu Fang and Guo Sheng: "Since the two brothers are willing to reunite with me, they should first go to Erlong Mountain to meet the other leaders and get acquainted with them.
.However... you two have been wandering around in the green forest for a short time, and you have no reputation in the world. I have another place where I would recommend you two to stay temporarily for a while. If you two
Brother, if you want to improve your halberd skills, if you take further steps, you will definitely benefit a lot from there!"
Although Lu Fang and Guo Sheng were confused after hearing what Xiao Tang said, they immediately became interested after hearing that they could hone their martial arts skills. They immediately asked in unison: "I wonder where my brother plans to recommend us two to go?"
Xiao Tang smiled slightly and said: "In the Xiao family gathering in Daming Prefecture, Hebei, there was a militia chief teacher who was the instructor of the 800,000 Imperial Army in Bianliang, Tokyo. He was good at learning spears, hammers, bows, crossbows, whips, maces, swords, chains, axes and axes.
Wang Jin, I wonder if the two brothers recognize the subtleties of eighteen kinds of weapons such as halberds, sticks and spears, and they are called 'Martial Arts'."
