Chapter 155 Accept the Challenge (2)
In the next second challenge, Xiang Wen, who had just rushed up, immediately shouted: "The second game is mine!" After that, he jumped into the field without waiting for the horse to stop.
Ryte, who was originally excited and prepared to end, immediately lowered his head and retreated in frustration. For Xiangwen, among the four major guards, besides Oak, there are a few lessons that can rely on his seniority. Which of the remaining three is not right for Xiangwen?
"Sir." Weijie, who caught up, saluted Cons.
Cons turned his head and found that Weijie brought all the civil servants and guards. Although he frowned, he also understood that they must have come up after seeing their situation in a critical situation. So he didn't say anything and just nodded and turned around to appreciate the challenge of Xiangwen.
Seeing that Cons did not blame him, Weijie breathed a sigh of relief. Although his intention was good, he was considered to have violated military orders, right?
When the leader saw Xiang Wen's appearance, his beautiful beauty, he immediately drooled in a daze. Except for those who followed Cons and knew Xiang Wen's identity through life and death, everyone else, including the Imperial Army, stared at Xiang Wen with his eyes shining.
Xiang Wen saw the appearance of the leader, raised his eyebrows, drew his sword and gave the boss two blades with his blade. Then he kicked the boss away, and said majesticly with his knife in his hand: "Next!"
As soon as these words were said, Leiter and Lei Kai looked depressed. They knew that they had no share in challenging themselves. And the others, including those bandits, all stared at Xiangwen in a daze. No one would have thought that such a petite beauty was so powerful!
The kicked leader might feel that it was shameful to be defeated by a woman. He roared and jumped up, grabbed a weapon from a subordinate who came to help him, and rushed towards Xiangwen with great momentum.
Xiang Wen frowned, swung his knife to cut off the weapon of the leader, and a knee strike made the leader bend down, then stepped on him underground, patted the leader who struggled but could not move with the tip of the knife, and said coldly: "Why are you here to come up if you are defeated? Or do you guys don't know the word credibility at all? Get out, go cool! Next!"
The leader struggled to get up and stopped his subordinates who were so angry that they were ready to attack. He looked at Xiangwen angrily and found that Xiangwen ignored him at all. He directly met the next boss. His eyes became dark. He knelt on the ground and said to Cons, who was riding on the horse: "I, Neil, I am willing to lead my subordinates to be loyal to the Lord."
After kneeling down, he stood up and walked to the palace with his men to Jordan to sit down.
Gong Zordun's nephew was a little disdainful and whispered: "Hmph, I actually lost to a woman!"
Neil's men immediately jumped up and shouted, "Barewell! What did you say?"
Gong Zordun's men also jumped up and yelled: "Hmph! You gang of lowly wild warriors are not qualified to question our young master's words, and our young master is not wrong. You are just defeated by a woman!"
"Hehe, lowly? A family that has no territory and can only hide in the mountains and live a life of almost destruction. What do you think we are lowly wild warriors? Then what are you? You are still young master!"
Neil's men said sarcastically without being outdone.
Gong Zordon suddenly shouted: "Okay, shut up! We are all other people's spoils now, so don't fight in the internal strife here!"
Gong Zordon's subordinates immediately shut up and sat down obediently, while Neil's subordinates were about to pursue the victory, but Neil was also stopped.
Neil glanced at Murakami Jodon and smiled, "My family head of Murakami Jodon, who has not done his best, how many tricks do that woman need to defeat you?"
Before Gong Zordon could answer, his nephew sneered: "Defeat? If my third uncle does his best, will that woman defeat my third uncle? Do you think my third uncle will be defeated like you?"
Neil stopped those men who were ready to move again. He smiled and said to the young man: "Mr. Gong Zuobing, although I didn't do my best, I believe you know that my force is only 20% or 30% less than your third uncle. Since I have lost one move, what about your third uncle? Two moves? Three moves?"
When Gong Zuobing heard this, he looked at his third uncle in surprise. Gong Zuodun nodded with a serious expression: "That woman is very strong, and the soldier who fought with me has no tricks, but his attack power is very strong. If I try my best, I can only see who has better physical strength and who can win."
"No? Uncle San, that's just a soldier! He is so strong?" Gong Zuobing looked disbelief, and Nail looked at the Juan who stood in front of Consma with a pug look on his face.
"He is absolutely impossible to be a soldier. If the soldiers of the Ultraman Empire were so strong, this continent would have been unified by the Ultraman Empire long ago." Gong Zordun said this, his face felt bitter: "But he is not a high-level general. You can tell from his current jester-like appearance. At most, he is at the captain level."
"Hey, it seems that the lord who defected to this time is amazing. I didn't bet the wrong treasure." Neil looked proud.
"Lord?" Gong Zuobing looked at Neil in shock.
And Mong Jodon said, "You will know your intentions if you say loyalty rather than surrender."
"Hey, I'm not learning from you. Seeing you put the whole family in, it's no big deal to take me like a wild warrior and a few subordinates in it, right? We will be fellow villagers in the future, so we need to take more care of it!" Neil said with a smile.
Gong Zordon shook his head: "I dare not guarantee this, after all, the owner of this territory still doesn't know how to send us. Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. The one who comes here is only surrender."
Hearing this, Neil looked at the bandit leader who was walking over with his men, and found that the other party was not someone he was familiar with, so he didn't say anything.
Xiang Wen took all the challenges and knocked the leader's weapon away with one move, then either kicked the opponent away or put a knife on the leader's neck. Without exception, these failed leaders knelt on the ground with a dead face and surrendered.
As a result, Cons won completely, and all the surviving bandits surrendered.
"Sir, am I awesome?"
Xiangwen, covered in sweat, immediately ran to Cons to wait for praise. He did not notice that the guys beside him were secretly shaking their noses, with an obsessive look on his face.
Wei Jie was secretly astonished when he smelled a faint fragrance.
"I don't know what Xiang Wen did. Even the sweat smells good. Generally speaking, it smells bad? Doesn't it even have a change in mentality? Will it change even in body?"
Cons smiled and said, "It's amazing. I didn't expect your martial arts to be so superb. Keep working hard."
Xiang Wen, who got the praise as he wished, immediately said excitedly: "Yes, I must work hard to practice martial arts! Try to become the most powerful swordsman in the continent!"
Haha a few words, Cons said to Juan who had been by his side: "Junan, leave a squadron to clean the battlefield, and the others take the prisoners back."
After receiving the order, Juan immediately breathed a sigh of relief and began to assign tasks. He felt that Lord Cons could allow him to perform tasks, which showed that he did not care about his crime of issuing orders without authorization.
Back in the town, Oak brought the left-behind personnel to cheer the returned soldiers warmly. After dismounting, Cons said to Oak: "Place the prisoners in the square, and report the results after Lao Dao cleans the battlefield."
Oak immediately obeyed the order.
When he returned to the lord's mansion, Cons found that the black wolf did not appear, and he couldn't help but ask: "Where is the black wolf?"
Xiang Wen, who was following behind, shook his head: "I don't know, nor do I know what it has been doing these days. I just came back and had a quick meal and ran away without a trace."
Wei Jie looked vulgar and interrupted with a smile: "Maybe it has found a girlfriend in the nearby mountains and forests, and it must be... now..."
However, Xiangwen was interrupted by violence. Wei Jie, who was touching his head, muttered to himself: "Strange, why are the elder sister not interested in such a topic?"
He didn't bother to pay attention to Weijie's eyes. While helping Cons disarm his equipment, he commanded his guards to prepare snacks and tea. Soon, Oak came to report the results of the battle.
"Sir, we seized forty-seven fishing boats this time, but these fishing boats are not only small but also dilapidated and have no value. At the same time, they seized a batch of garbage weapons, eliminated 1,156 bandits and captured 1,231 bandits."
Hearing this, Xiang Wen curled his lips: "We have gained from this battle, and the bandits are really poor enough."
Weijie smiled and said, "If they are not poor, they will not rob around."
"Where are our losses?" Cons asked.
Oke sluggishly, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Fifty-four servants died in battle, all the personal guards were wiped out in battle, and five of the imperial army died in battle."
Cons didn't react much, Xiang Wen, Weijie immediately jumped up: "What? The servants lost fifty-four soldiers, and the combat guards were wiped out!"
The dozens of strong personal guards brought from the imperial capital are just finished?
Xiang Wen rushed to Reit immediately, kicked Lechet a few times, and shouted: "What commanders do you do? How can you wipe out the entire battle guards!"
Reit, Lei Kai lowered his head and said nothing.
After the battle, they were stunned. The dozens of combat guards who they personally selected and trained themselves were killed in battle. After they entered the lord's mansion in great pain, they kept saying nothing.
Xiang Wen scolded Reit, and after a few words, Lei Kai sighed helplessly.
Everyone knows what these two people are. Letting them be commanders is simply to let their subordinates die! But they dare not say this because the appointment was issued by Cons.
"In fact, we only killed a hundred people in battle this time, and eliminated more than a thousand bandits. This was a huge victory. If our equipment and training were not much higher than those of bandits, the more than two thousand bandits would be enough to eliminate us." Liu Bin, who was listening on the side, comforted him.
Oak responded: "Yes, this battle loss of ten is a huge merit."
Cons waved his hand and said to Oak: "Order everyone to gather in the square except for the guards."
Oak was stunned, but immediately took the order and left.
Xiang Wen thought Cons was going to punish Rett and Lei Kai, and hurriedly said, "Sir, the captain of the Juan who is temporarily in charge of the Imperial Army has changed the order without authorization. If he followed the order directly, instead of taking a detour, we would have won a long time ago, and the combat guards would not be wiped out at all! So we must deal with him seriously!"
Wei Jie nodded immediately in agreement, as if his thoughts were the same as those in the eyes.
Cons nodded, and the atmosphere suddenly became serious. Xiang Wen and Weijie pulled Liu Bin and hid aside and whispered something, while Rett and Lei Kai continued to sit on the ground with their heads down.
After a while, there were waves of dense footsteps outside, and then Oak came in and bowed and said, "Sir, the gathering outside has been completed."
Cons got up and walked out of the lord's mansion. In front of him were four square formations. The first square formation was composed of more than a hundred civil guards, grooms, veterinarians and other people who were incompetent. Without the combat guards, the square formation shrank a lot.
The second square formation was seven or eight hundred servants. Although dozens of them died in battle, they did not look that obvious.
The third square formation was nearly a thousand bandit prisoners, all of whom were tied up by ropes and were held in the center of the square. The ones guarding these prisoners were nearly a thousand prisoners of the former Imperial Army.
They participated in the battle late, and there were no casualties except for a few unlucky ghosts.
Cons glanced at everyone and said coldly: "Rett, Leike has no command ability, and the command of the two personal guards will be revoked."
Everyone was stunned when he heard Cons' opening remark. Oak wanted to say something, and when he saw the half-limited personal guard, he sighed deeply.
Reit, no matter how stupid Lei Kai is, he knows that he is blaming himself for not taking the battle guards well.
They only realized after the war that the troops they led were wiped out, and they had long felt ashamed of themselves. Now that they heard that their posts were removed, they felt guilty on the one hand, and on the other hand, they were tired of the commander's position, and immediately knelt down and obeyed the order without saying a word.
The people present had different thoughts, and Yu'an's heart beat even more: "Oh my God, the position of a close confidant is withdrawn as soon as he says he can't withdraw. Then, isn't I, the captain, very dangerous?"
Cons continued: "You have performed well in this battle. All the left-behind personnel rewarded one gold coin, and all the participating personnel rewarded two gold coins. The militia soldier who first discovered the situation of the bandits had two hundred gold coins. The old sword team that attacked the bandits and seized the fishing boats was rewarded with one hundred gold coins, ten husbands had twenty gold coins, and soldiers with five gold coins.
"The rest of the cavalry teams intercepted the bandits and rewarded each person with ten gold coins, and the militia was roundabout and rewarded each person with three gold coins. Those who died in battle and those who made meritorious service were handled in accordance with the Imperial Military Rules Pension Reward Regulations, and one head-level merit was exchanged for ten gold coins."
As soon as Cons said this, everyone cheered, especially the Imperial Army prisoners who had just become militias.
They just ran for a while, waved the saber and got the reward of five gold coins. They were so happy. Some of the good luck killed a few bandits and even began to think about how many gold coins they could get.
But the happiest one is the lucky one who discovered the situation of bandits, two hundred gold coins! How could that huge sum of money allow him to eat, drink and have fun in the brothel for a year!
Although the servants were cheering, they didn't care much. After all, they used to be rewarding materials, and they could still maintain a calm mood if they didn't know the value of the gold coins.
Although the people on the Feidu Peninsula have their own language, they are close to Ultraman Empire and the Wilt Free Alliance, so even if they don’t know how to speak, they can understand them.
When those bandits who were familiar with the value of gold coins heard the bounty, all bandits were drooling except for the leader. You should know that one gold coin is enough for a family of five to eat and drink for half a year!
You An was a little surprised. He participated in the first challenge and won. According to military rules, it was also a great contribution. I don’t know how many gold coins this can reward!
While he was thinking about it, Cons continued: "But..."
Chapter completed!
