Chapter 138 I lost!
"Hit! Hit! Hit him in the heart!"
"Hit him! Yes! Hit him like this! Beat him to death!"
On the training ground, the shouts of fighting and killing were deafening. The soldiers, who had just finished training and had not yet put on their clothes, were all shirtless and gathered in a circle.
Inside the circle were two people fighting.
A man with dark skin, a tiger face and leopard eyes, his upper body bare, his firm muscles and several scars clearly visible, and his lower body wearing khaki linen trousers of military uniform, even though they were relatively loose, the tense muscle lines inside could be seen.
This person has great explosive power.
The other one was relatively thin and weak, wearing a guard uniform, but he was not without strength. He was agile and dodged quickly, so he was not at a disadvantage in fighting with the opponent.
"Brother Shen! Catch him! He's jumping around like a monkey!"
"That's right. If we catch him, he'll be useless. He was born as a secret guard, so he only knows these lousy tricks."
The soldiers shouted, all of them giving Chen Duo advice.
The guards are more like a helpless fox surrounded by wolves. No matter how agile they are, they cannot jump out of this circle.
However, Shen Duo did not use his full strength. It was more like a game before hunting. He would attack only after he had enough fun.
Suddenly, Shen Duo's eyes changed and he attacked the guards like lightning.
The guard also heard the noise and was distracted for a moment. He didn't have time to dodge and was punched in the chest by Shen Duo.
The guard fell heavily to the ground as if hit by a galloping horse, vomiting blood.
When he tried to get up, Chen Duo quickly attacked him again, pinning his legs with his knees, one hand on his chest, the other hand raised in a clenched fist, his muscles so tense that the veins could be seen bulging.
This punch, going straight to the guard's face, would surely kill him.
A fierce murderous intent flashed in Shen Duo's eyes, and he swung his fist down at a very fast speed.
The guards had no way to escape and had made up their minds to die.
Just when the fist wind had reached the tip of the nose, a hand came flying towards him.
A palm hit Shen Duo's chest, forcing him to step back immediately.
At the same time, Yun Ji grabbed the guard's collar with his other hand and pulled him back. When Chen Duo tried to reach out and grab the guard's leg, his fingertips only brushed against the upper of his shoe.
Chen Duo was dissatisfied and snorted, "We were sparring, and when we were about to lose, the commander came out to interfere. Isn't that unfair?"
The guard stood up, feeling guilty and blaming himself, and wanted to say something, but Yun Ji spoke first, "Go down and see the wound first."
Born as a secret guard, he was accustomed to obeying his master's orders. Without saying a word, the guard was taken away by the other two to find a doctor.
After seeing the people off, Yun Ji turned to look at Chen Duo.
"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! This is all a misunderstanding!" Yong'an Hou, who had been hiding outside, pushed through the crowd and walked in. "It was just a quarrel just now, and then the fight started. It's okay, it's okay."
As Yong'an Hou spoke, he patted Shen Duo a few times with his hands, signaling him to restrain himself.
But Chen Duo didn't buy his tricks at all. He waved his hand away and shouted at Yun Ji, "He was the one who said he wanted to compete with me, so I obliged him. Now he's walking away in the middle of the fight. What's the point of going on the battlefield?"
"Call the deserters!"
The surrounding soldiers followed suit and shouted.
"You're from the capital, living a life of luxury. You're just a show-off. How can you go to the battlefield?"
"That's right. Even if he did, he would be scared to death and cry for his mother. He only has this time to pretend."
The words became more and more unpleasant. On the surface, he was talking about the guards who had left, but everyone knew who he was talking about secretly.
Chen Duo looked at Yun Ji with pride and provocation, not taking Prince Yong, the commander-in-chief, seriously at all.
"Since this is a competition, we should stop when it's due. Life-threatening moves should be used against the enemy, not our compatriots."
Yun Ji said this lightly, silencing everyone.
Using killing moves against one's own people is shameful in the army.
Chen Duo felt a little embarrassed, thinking that people who have studied the scriptures are good at talking.
"Besides, it's not my guards that Deputy Commander Shen really wants to spar with, right?" Yun Ji raised his hand, took off his thin fur coat, handed it to the Yong'an Marquis beside him, and stepped forward and said, "Please."
I didn't expect Yun Ji to be willing to accept the challenge.
During the time he was here, although he trained like them every day, he was more indifferent, or he knew he couldn't suppress them and chose to turn a deaf ear to them.
Chen Duo deliberately provoked Yun Ji several times, but Yun Ji pretended not to see it.
No matter what Yun Ji is, Shen Duo wants him more than ever.
Once we defeat this empty-handed guy from Shengjing, we’ll see if he still has the nerve to stay in Yanzhou.
"Your Majesty, this..."
Without waiting for Yong'an Hou to persuade him, Shen Duo rushed forward with his fist raised.
The surrounding soldiers and generals also followed suit and shouted loudly. Marquis Yong'an was quickly squeezed out and could only stand outside and worry.
Inside, Shen Duo's attack was completely different from before.
He knew that Yun Ji had been learning martial arts since he was a child, and he could see from his previous move that his skills were better than those of his previous guards, so he did not underestimate the enemy.
Use all your strength and strike hard.
But he was like a ferocious tiger, and Yun Ji was like the clouds in the sky, visible and invisible. When a punch came, he deftly neutralized the force.
He stood still, but Chen Duo started running all over the field.
After dozens of rounds, Yun Ji was not touched at all.
The more he fought, the more anxious and irritated he became. Shen Duo gritted his teeth and pounced like a tiger, determined to fight Yun Ji head-on.
Unexpectedly, Yun Ji grabbed his hands, pulled them inward, and then let go. The force instantly leaked to both sides, and he was unable to retract the force and was thrown forward.
"Deputy Commander Shen, you are too impatient." Yun Ji said in a low voice, raised his hand and slapped Shen Duo away two meters.
He struggled to move his legs and stumbled a few steps before he could stand firmly.
Many people were confused.
"Who won and who lost? Why didn't they fight anymore?"
Those who saw it clearly didn't dare to speak, their eyes just turned to Shen Duo.
"I lost!" Chen Duo shouted angrily. He took his clothes from the hands of the people beside him and shook them fiercely. He said to Yun Ji, "Your Highness is very skilled. I admit I am inferior to you. However, no matter how good your skills are, you can't defeat a thousand enemies alone on the battlefield. Your Highness, please read more military books."
After saying that, Shen Duo turned and left.
The soldiers also left quickly.
"Your Highness." Yong'an Hou stepped forward with a thin fur coat. As he watched everyone walk away, he frowned and advised, "These soldiers in Yanzhou have been arrogant for many years. They are difficult to subdue. We still need to use some extraordinary means."
Yong'an Hou had mentioned the so-called extraordinary measures to Yun Ji earlier, but Yun Ji denied it at that time.
That is not an extraordinary measure, it is clearly a disregard for human life.
"I have my own arrangements for this matter, Marquis Yong'an doesn't have to worry." Taking the thin fur coat, Yun Ji also walked away.
Marquis Yong'an stood alone in the parade ground, his eyes gradually becoming colder.
How dare such a young boy act so pretentiously in front of him?
Su Rui was useless and failed to find him a better position. He thought that with her weight in Yun Ji's heart, Yun Ji would eventually hand over the power to him.
But his proposals were rejected time and time again, and he was only appointed as the vanguard commander, and he was not used at all.
If he didn't have power, why would he be inferior to this kid?
"My lord, there's another letter." The adjutant beside him stepped forward and whispered.
Yong'an Hou thought for a moment and said, "Don't let anyone find out."
