Chapter 789 Postscript, Xiao Ling's World (Twenty-Seven)"Are you telling the truth?"
"Ben never jokes."
Si Heng smiled contemptuously: "Then it's as you wish."
Not only him, but even the counselors behind him felt that Feng Shao was too stupid and too straightforward, and actually took the initiative to ask for a duel.
Who doesn't know the achievements of the King Xun? At the beginning, the King Xun was just a small soldier, and he fought his way out of the siege by relying on his invincible bravery. Later, as a pioneer, he killed all the soldiers of Jingguo and was invincible.
Once, Prince Xun led a team of only 500 people to hunt down the remnants of the Jing Kingdom, but he didn't know that it was a trap set up by the other party, who wanted to kill him.
However, Prince Xun relied on his own martial arts to break out from the encirclement of 3,000 enemy troops, which shows his bravery.
Feng Shao was actually very powerful, but almost all the soldiers believed that he was still inferior to King Xun in terms of martial arts. Taking the initiative to propose a contest, wasn't that courting death?
Si Hengnian sneered. Even if Feng Shao lost, as long as the other soldiers did not surrender, then he would have won. Without a leader, who could the court send?
The eldest and second princes? If they really have the guts to go to the battlefield, why don't they meet tonight? He knows the royal family too well. For that position, no one is willing to take risks easily. He has been at the border for so long, but has he ever heard of the two princes going to war? They are just here to get military merits.
Therefore, as long as Feng Shao is captured, it is equivalent to capturing the entire border. Then he can slowly make plans and conquer the whole world sooner or later.
Fearing that Feng Shao would go back on his word, Si Hengnian rode his horse forward directly. Feng Shao was not afraid at all, and the two were evenly matched in their first fight.
Feng Shao used a spear and Si Hengnian used a long sword. They fought very fiercely, especially when their horses galloped and raised a lot of dust.
Si Hengnian originally thought that he could defeat Feng Shao quickly, but after a few moves, he found that Feng Shao still had some skills, no wonder he dared to challenge him alone. But if he expected to win like this, he would be dreaming!
The soldiers on both sides were stunned. Some of them couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. If only His Royal Highness Prince Xun had not rebelled, it would be great. With such a good general in their Li Kingdom, why would they worry about not being able to conquer Jing Kingdom?
"Puff!" This was the sound of Feng Shao's spear piercing into the belly of the horse under Si Hengnian. At the same time, he quickly got off the horse, rolled along, and then drove his warhorse away.
Si Hengnian was so angry that he didn't expect that he would be the first to suffer a loss. This was the Ferghana horse that had been with him for several years!
"Feng Shao, you're looking for death!"
After getting off their horses, the speed of their fighting became faster and faster, and every move was fatal. If you were not careful, you might get injured and defeated.
Si Hengnian had to admit that the battle against Feng Shao was the toughest battle he had faced in all these years, at least much more difficult than he had imagined.
Feng Shao felt that the more he fought, the smoother he became. The results of the special training given to him by the two princes began to show. Not only were his moves connected more quickly and smoothly, but he was also more acute in predicting danger and subconsciously knew where Si Hengnian's next blow would land.
"Do you feel that the Duke is gradually losing ground?"
"I thought I was the only one who noticed that the prince was struggling. Many of his unique moves were countered by General Feng one by one."
Zhou Yuqing smiled knowingly after listening to this. It has been such a long time since he won, and every move he used felt powerless. The always conceited Si Hengnian should be getting anxious. If he gets anxious, he will reveal his flaws and the outcome will be decided soon.
He folded his fan and stared at the open space in front of him. As expected, Si Hengnian accelerated his attack. Although he looked extremely brave, his flaws were exposed to Feng Shao. If Feng Shao's talent was anything, it was knowing how to seize the opportunity. Otherwise, he would not have been able to subdue nearly half of the soldiers in just two years.
"Hiss!" Under the witness of tens of thousands of soldiers, Feng Shao's spear pierced Si Hengnian's shoulder.
"You lose." Feng Shao said coldly.
"Impossible." Si Hengnian's eyes turned red, unwilling to believe that he had lost so easily, "I am not dead yet, and the winner is not decided yet."
Feng Shao shouted coldly: "As a god of war, are you going to go back on your word?"
Si Hengnian ignored him and directly pushed the spear away: "Stop talking nonsense and look at the knife."
Zhou Yuqing glanced at the soldiers who had chosen to follow the Prince of Xun before, and said mockingly: "The so-called His Royal Highness the Prince of Xun is nothing more than this."
The soldiers who followed him in the rebellion all felt ashamed. This was the man they had sworn to follow until death? At this moment, many of them were already wavering.
Si Hengnian refused to admit defeat, so Feng Shao continued to fight. If he could defeat Si Hengnian once, he could defeat him a second time. Not to mention that Si Hengnian's mind was completely confused now. Although his moves were more fierce due to shame and anger, his flaws were becoming more and more obvious, just like before.
So one shot, two shots, three shots... Si Hengnian soon turned into a bloody man, until he was no longer able to hold the knife.
"Come here, detain Prince Xun and wait for his return to the capital for punishment."
Si Hengnian laughed crazily at this time: "Return to the capital? Feng Shao, don't think that you can go back and claim your reward just because you beat me. Jing State has already attacked from somewhere else, and most of the soldiers are here. The border will soon be lost."
Hearing this, Feng Shao remained unmoved: "Don't worry about that. Jingguo will have the eldest and second princes to deal with it."
"The eldest and second princes?" Si Hengnian's eyes widened. How could this be possible? Aren't the royal family the most afraid of death and the most suspicious? Why would they take the initiative to fight against Jingguo with such a small number of troops?
He instantly gloated again: "Feng Shao, even if they are powerful, the Jing Kingdom's military deployment this time is different from the past. And with the route map I gave them, they can't win. Once the two princes die, do you think you can return to the capital safely?"
Feng Shao really couldn't understand why Si Hengnian, as a Li citizen, could ignore the people of the country for the sake of power and sell the news to Jing State. His heart was really despicable.
"Si Hengnian, are you worthy of the soldiers and civilians who trusted you with what you did? When you think of their support for you, didn't you feel a bit guilty when you betrayed the information? You really don't deserve the title of God of War!"
Following Feng Shao's questioning, some soldiers who chose to follow Si Hengnian couldn't help but feel guilty. They thought they were following a wise leader, but they didn't expect him to have such terrible character. It was obvious that he was using them for the power in his hands!
The soldiers really couldn't imagine that if one day their hometown and their loved ones were occupied and killed by the Mirror Country, they would actually be the ones who let the murderer in!
Fortunately, General Feng stopped them in time and woke them up in time! Fortunately, the two princes put aside their dignity and bravely fought the enemy.
"Come here, take the traitor Si Hengnian away and keep him under strict guard."
As Si Hengnian's mouth was blocked, the soldiers who had wanted to join the rebellion also consciously put down their weapons and lowered their heads in shame.
As there were too many people, Feng Shao was unable to punish them immediately. He only had their names recorded and would deal with them later. Now he had to go and support the two princes.
"Ben never jokes."
Si Heng smiled contemptuously: "Then it's as you wish."
