Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2283 Challenge
The dudes suddenly became excited.

That's right!

If it wasn't for relying on the power of war horses to suppress us all, there would be no telling who would win and who would win in a fair match!
Morale, which had fallen to the bottom, picked up again.

Gao Zhenxing let go of the wailing grandson Run, stood up, looked at Fang Jun and said loudly: "Fang Er, it is widely rumored in the army that you are the new generation of military god. I don't think so. I am here to challenge you today. Can you enlighten me?" !"

He didn't have the confidence to defeat Fang Junzhi, but he had to.

Even if he is challenged dignifiedly, he will gain the reputation of challenging a powerful enemy. Moreover, with Fang Jun's current status, as long as he can accept his challenge, it is a kind of affirmation for him.

Is it possible that Fang Jun will accept the challenge of any small fish and shrimp?

Otherwise, if he left in such a disheveled manner today, his reputation would be completely reduced to a laughingstock, and he would force hundreds of people to come to Xingshi to inquire about his crimes, only to be scared to the point of peeing his pants when he rode his horse to charge. What face to see people?
The most important thing is that he "abducted" Changsun Run out to participate in the siege of the academy this time, and then brought back Changsun Run with a broken leg and broken arm. How would he explain to Changsun Wuji?
What's more, he kept the incident from his family, and no one knew about it, and no one knew how to face his father's scolding, especially after he failed completely and failed to get a place in the academy...

Challenging Fang Jun has become the best way to deal with it.

Regardless of victory or defeat, it is a confession for all parties—challenging Fang Jun is an honor in itself!

Even Gao Zhenxing himself hadn't noticed it, even though he had a hundred dissatisfaction with Fang Jun in his heart, he had already subconsciously regarded Fang Jun as an unattainable benchmark...

The dandies were immediately pissed off, and naturally there were many smart people among them, who could see Gao Zhenxing's true intentions, and hurriedly clamored loudly.

"challenge!"

"challenge!"

"challenge!"

The atmosphere suddenly became warm!

Chinese civilization has a long history, but from ancient times to the present, there has never been a "duel" ceremony like the West. Because China is a country of etiquette, it pays attention to convincing people with virtue, even if it is hands-on combat, so "making friends with martial arts" is rarely life-and-death An endless situation.

Those who deliberately take human life will never be called "warrior", and those who seek human life during open duels will be cast aside and deeply despised by the world.

Those who really murder people will endure it for a while, accumulate strength, and then hit with a single blow.

This kind of people are called "Assassins". Although there are tragic righteous men like Zhuan Zhu and Jing Ke, they are generally not recognized...

But the custom of exchanging martial arts and meeting friends through martial arts has existed since ancient times.

Especially in the Guanzhong area where martial arts has a long history, the folk customs are fierce and fierce, and there are often people who have grievances and grievances between the two sides, and those who have serious conflicts will solemnly challenge them, and the other party cannot easily refuse, otherwise they will be regarded as timid and ridiculed .

Even if the challenger is defeated, he will be respected.

For Guanzhong people, if others dare not fight in person, they are cowards. Even if they are noble, they will be despised by others.

Of course, since it is a challenge, the basic requirement is that the identities of the two parties will not be too different, otherwise, how decent is it for a trafficker to challenge a current minister?

Therefore, Gao Zhenxing's approach of challenging Fang Jun face to face is certainly exciting, but if Fang Jun refuses, it is justified.

After all, the difference in identity, status, and fame between the two cannot be counted by hundreds of miles...

But no matter what, if Fang Jun refuses Gao Zhenxing's challenge on this occasion, he will bow his head in imposing manner, because in essence, both of them are descendants of famous families and descendants of aristocratic families. Although the difference is obvious, in the end there is no difference in background.

As for the dudes watching the fun, they don’t care who wins or who loses, as long as Fang Jun accepts the challenge, then today’s matter can become "I came to the academy with a grudge, just to force Fang Jun to accept the challenge", the nature is completely different .

Otherwise, Fang Jun, with his stick, would be so vicious that he would have to accuse everyone of mobbing and provoking trouble, and then record it in a file and strictly order the academy not to admit students from now on, then there would be no time to cry...

Xu Jingzong, who had already retreated to the door of the value room, saw that the emotions of the dandies were still gradually calming down. Thinking that this matter would not cause too much trouble, he stood silently by the side, not saying a word, full of interest...

Faced with Gao Zhenxing's challenge, Fang Jun has not yet spoken, and the followers behind him quit.

Wei Ying stepped forward, glared at Gao Zhenxing and said, "What are you, worthy of challenging my family's Erlang? Come, come, come, I will meet you!"

Gao Zhenxing was disdainful: "What are you? You are just a servant, and you are worthy of talking to me!"

Wei Ying was furious: "When I was fighting in the East China Sea and Mobei, your mother was still playing with women in Chang'an. Do you think the rank of riding captain on my head was picked up?"

Gao Zhenxing blushed, speechless.

The Tang Dynasty advocated military merit, and those who had military merit were awarded honorary officers.The highest level of honorary officer is called "Shangzhu Kingdom", and the second rank is the second rank, which can only be achieved through "twelve turns".

In "The Song of Mulan", the "Twelve Turns" of "Twelve Turns of Ce Xun, Rewarding Hundreds and Thousands" means that Hua Mulan has made the greatest military exploits...

Wei Ying accompanies Fang Jun on expeditions to the west and north and south, and has already obtained the rank of captain of cavalry. Of course, this is only a rank, with benefits, but it is not an official position in itself. Comply with the requirements of family qualifications and origin.

But for the people of Tang, rank is glory!

You can have no official position, but as long as you have a rank of honor, not to mention all kinds of benefits, just your social status is also high, and you should take a high look at other high-ranking officials and dare not make things difficult.

Gao Zhenxing also has honor ranks, but not as good as Wei Ying, not to mention that his rank is from Yin Meng. Although he also served in the army, he has never fought a single battle when he was stationed in a prosperous county. The horizontal knife has never soaked in the blood of the Hulu...

It's not that Gao Zhenxing is cowardly, but in fact he is indeed a ruthless person. It's just that everyone has his own destiny, and you can't fight a war if you want to. Since he joined the army, he has been arranged by his father Gao Shilian in the counties and counties. Zhenguan Since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the areas where the Liaoren were removed have often rebelled, and there are not even bandits and horse thieves elsewhere. Where can we go to fight?
Seeing Wei Ying showing off his power in front of him with the rank of riding captain, Gao Zhenxing was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth.

Earlier, Gao Shilian arranged for him to go to the Western Regions to serve in the army. He was not angry, and he did not want to leave Chang'an. He secretly asked for a lot of favors, and finally resigned from the Ministry of War with the excuse of "unhealed leg disease". Looking at it now, it was a big mistake. Very wrong.

If a man has no rank, he is like a eunuch who has been castrated. If he is a male thing, he can bluff in front of you, and you can't go back...

Suffocated!
Gao Zhenxing was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot, but he couldn't do it if he was asked to challenge a trilogy, that would be too inferior, so he glared at Fang Jun fiercely, and said, "Fang Concubine, do you dare to fight?"

The dandies behind him immediately raised their arms and shouted: "Fight!"

"war!"

"war!"

Wei Ying was young and full of vigor, and was about to go up to scold him, but Fang Jun waved his hand back.

Fang Jun stepped forward, looked at Gao Zhenxing in front of him with his hands behind his back, stared at him for a while, smiled suddenly, nodded and said: "Okay, I will fight with you!"

Before Gao Zhenxing could speak, Fang Jun said again: "But you remember, in today's battle against you, it must be because you can't see what kind of tricks you are playing in your heart. In terms of status and status, you are more than a hair of my young master." No! Don’t be angry, this is the truth, but you, Gao Shiro, are considered a man. Why do you have to fight and fight fiercely all day long? If you have a chance in the future, you might as well go to the battlefield , the two armies are fighting against each other on the battlefield, and the mountains of corpses are rolling in the sea of ​​blood, then I will be regarded as my son-in-law, and I will live up to this life! Even if the horse leather body is buried in the frontier, I will respect you three times! Picking quarrels and provoking trouble... what is it?"

Gao Zhenxing's face was reddened by these words, and he raised his finger and pointed at the group of dudes: "Relying on the meritorious service made by the elders in the family, he spends his days doing nothing but making troubles, what kind of a hero is he? Since the founding of the Shenji Camp, As for the later Royal Navy and You Tunwei, the number of bastards and second sons of each family under the account is unknown, but these people followed a certain man to fight in the north and south. Now which one is not honored and glorious? You waste I saw those bastards and second sons who came out of my account, which one of them didn't have their tails between their legs, but dared to speak loudly? The fame is only obtained from the horse, this is a heroic man! Don't be a mother's nest in Chang'an to bully men and women , Lost all the face of our generation of men!"

Before checking the house, under the mountain gate, hundreds of people gathered together, but there was no sound.

All the dandies were deeply humiliated by the blatant contempt and disdain in Fang Jun's words. While blushing, they also felt deeply shocked.

That's right, as a son of the Tang Dynasty, if the horizontal knife in his hand has never been stained with the blood of barbarians, and his seven-foot body has never been decorated with military merits, how can he be worthy of going to this world?
What made them feel particularly angry was that she had no meritorious service, so she couldn't even answer when someone pointed her nose at her and scolded her...

So useless!
