six-fingered peasant girl

Chapter 293 The Final Contest

After buying the manor, Su Liu was busy hiring people to cultivate, weed, plan the forest, buy dung and soil for composting, and at the same time was busy drawing the design of the manor.

It was spring now, and the spring rain was as fine as oil. I heard that someone wanted to hire people to reclaim wasteland, and people from around Yuncheng came to sign up one after another. Worry no one will do it.

After signing all the contracts, Su Liu didn't care about it, and directly put the servants that the Chen family had bought for her into use. She also wanted to see who could do the job well, and reuse was indispensable.

And these people naturally understood that the opportunity was rare, and they all had the heart to compete. For a while, the people who received the errands all showed their energy, and the various matters of the manor's reclamation went very smoothly.

After drawing another piece of design, Su Liu glanced at the cowhide envelope beside her and pursed her lips.

Ning Guang's letter this time is only four words: well, don't read it!
Su Liu was dissatisfied, she always wrote a full letter every time, this time she replied like this again, but dissatisfaction was dissatisfaction, she still wrote a reply letter.

It has been April since Ning Guang received Su Liu's letter, and it has been more than two years since he left her, but it feels like a long time has passed.

The letter mentioned that she bought another ten thousand mu of wasteland, and that she was planning to set up a brocade store in Yunzhou City, Yuncheng. It also mentioned that Chen Shi and Cao Mingzhu were about to give birth, and now they are like babies Followed a string of small tails in and out behind him, and some people were so nervous to eat a fruit, they almost missed it in their mouths, which was extremely funny.

Ning Guang smiled while watching, as if seeing the girl gloating, playful and cunning.

After reading and rereading a letter, Ning Guang's cold face became soft.

"Report!"

Ning Guang folded the letter and put it back on the hem of his clothes. His soft face instantly became cold again, and he said, "Come in."

"General, Hu Sandao is finally ready to fight." It was Tie Tou who came in. He was dressed in armor, with a beard all over his face, but his eyes were piercing.

Ning Guang stood up, took a look at the cloth in his hand, narrowed his eyes, and said, "He can't keep it."

"Our army broke through Linhuai Pass and broke through two cities in a row. The morale is like a rainbow. Now it's spring again. It's the right time for our army. He must not be able to hold back." Tie Tou snorted coldly and said: "Don't say that. He can't hold it back, and I can't hold it anymore, I don't believe that I can't attack Beili City."

As long as they captured the city of Beili City, they would go one step further towards the imperial city. This battle has been fought long enough, and they lost three cities in a row. Will the king of Beili still be able to sit still?
"The second prince of the Northern Kingdom personally came to Baili City to supervise the army. He is a general from another country, and all he can do is attack." Ning Guang said flatly: "He should also find it boring."

Tietou was taken aback, and asked: "You mean, Yeluhong doesn't believe him?"

Ning Guang walked slowly to the sand table, looked at the signs of the captured cities, and said: "Yeluhong lost his right arm when Yale died. As a general protecting the country, Yale The sudden death is so strange, do you think Yeluhong has no doubts? It's just that he can't find any evidence."

"But Hu Sandao didn't."

"That's right, he didn't, but you forgot that he is from Qi." Ning Guang sneered.

The lips under the iron-headed beard pursed, Qi people, but they were generals in the northern country, and even lost two cities. Anyone with a little sense can't help but think, this can't be a meticulous work, right?
"This battle should be a last stand. The order will go on, and the three armies will be on alert." Ning Guang said coldly, "I will accept the war letter."

"Yes."

Ning Guang looked at the matching sword hanging on the camp tent for a while, then picked up a jug of wine and walked out.

And in Beili City, in a majestic mansion, a burly, tough-looking man sat in the study, with dark eyes, hands on his lap, listening to the report of the people below.

"Continue to stare at him. If he makes any abnormal movements, kill him immediately." Yeluhong said coldly.

"Yes."

When the soldiers below went down, Yeluhong said to the man sitting on the right: "General Tu, you should also make preparations. It doesn't matter if Hu Sandao is careful. Once the army is defeated, immediately lead Ning Guang into the city. I want him to come." no go."

"Yes, prince! But prince, there are still people in the city." General Natu hesitated.

Yeluhong stared, and said: "Those who achieve great things don't care about small things. The Qi army occupies my land. What's the point of their sacrifices? Once Ning Guang dies, I will cook the wine myself and take the heads of Ning Guang and others. Sacrifice their dead souls."

General Tu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Yes."

"Go down and get ready!"

General Tu retreated, Yeluhong picked up the wine cup on the table and drank it down, licking the liquid from the corner of his lips with the tip of his tongue, squeezed the wine cup in his hand, smiled coldly, and said to himself: "Hu Sandao , Are you loyal or traitor? This prince will use what you people from the Central Plains say: wait and see." After speaking, he threw the wine cup in his hand on the ground viciously.

At this time, Hu Sandao was standing on the city wall, listening to the words of an inconspicuous soldier below, and laughed at himself.

In the eyes of Qi people, he betrayed the country and sought glory, and designed to kill the three thousand brothers who were born and died with him. Since then, he has a high bed and soft seat, delicious food and wine, and beautiful women in his arms. He is a beautiful general.

But no one knows, he just doesn't want to be under one person forever, he also wants to win one at a time, stand in the highest position in a glorious manner, and tell the world that he is no worse than that person.

Therefore, on the grassland, he practiced diligently, set up formations, and was willing to be with those barbarians. In order to blend in and gain trust, he turned himself into a barbarian.

But no matter how wide the grassland is, the military strength is far less than that of the Qi State. It is like a gnat shaking a big tree, and it is almost worthless.So he persuaded the Khan to form an alliance with the Northern Kingdom, but the barbarian is a barbarian, he has no brains except for brute force, and he is arrogant, and finally he was beaten to death.

Don't be afraid, there is the Northern Army behind him, and he can still compare with Ning Guang.

One battle after another, he won and lost again. If you ask him if he was happy when he won, it would be a lie to say that he was not happy. He finally won, but the battle is not over yet, and no one knows who is the final one. winner.

Yeluhong suspected that he was right. He was a native of Qi, but he was a general in the northern kingdom. He took the lives of the northern army as a joke and led them to attack the Qi army.

Because it is not the Qi army, he just wants to have soldiers to compete with Ning Guang, so he has never paid attention to the life and death of the Bei army. When he lost the city, he also lost the trust of the Bei kingdom.

Now, the people of Qi hate him as a traitor, and the people of Bei are wary of him as an outsider. It's really embarrassing for him to be a general!
Hu Sandao took a sip of wine and looked around, there was no star in the dark night sky, and the enemy camp not far away was lit with candles, like a tiger watching its prey in the dark.

"Tomorrow, it's over. I'm tired too." Hu Sandao raised the jug, and he didn't know who he was paying respect to.

As for the Qi army camp, Ning Guang also raised the jug and said, "Tomorrow is the final battle."

Under the same sky, two men, two jugs of wine, one side at each side, the wine in the jugs was exhausted, and with a bang, the jugs were smashed to pieces.

It was a formal contest to win or lose, either you die or I die!
On the ninth day of April in the 24th year of Jiahe, the horn of war sounded again in Baili City in Linhuaiguan. With the sound of war drums, the gate of Baili City, which had been closed for two months, finally opened. A man in red armor and riding a black horse was holding The big knife took the lead.

And less than ten miles away from Baili City, there was a neat army of Qi. The man in black armor and riding a black horse saw this, grabbed the carriage, and went up to meet him.

"Come on!"

"Kill him son of a bitch."

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The two armies fought together, and as the postures of the drums and flag wavers on both sides kept changing, the formations of the two sides were also changing.

And none of these attracted the attention of the men fighting in the middle of the battlefield.

"Clang!" The knife and the sword collided, a burst of sparks flashed, and there was a buzzing sound.

Ning Guang held the reins of the horse in one hand and the sword in the other. He suddenly jumped up from the horse's back, pulled up a sword flower, and stabbed Hu Sandao.

"Good time!" Hu Sandao roared excitedly, jumped up from the horse's back in the same way, advanced instead of retreating, and went up to meet him.

The sword clanged again, and the two fell to the ground, not even breathing, and continued to fight together.

"General."

"Get out of the way, don't help."

Ning Guang and Hu Sandao shouted separately, their eyes shone in tacit understanding.

Both of them were fast, sometimes in the air, sometimes on the ground, leaving only a trace of phantom, no martial arts moves, only the clang and clang of swords clashing together.

After about a few hundred strokes, Ning Guang was shocked to take five steps back. He poked the sword in his right hand on the ground and was gasping for breath.

Hu Sandao on the opposite side was also having a hard time, spat out a mouthful of blood, panted and looked at Ning Guang with a strange smile: "Happy! Give me another knife!" Then he raised his knife and killed Ning Guang.

Ning Guang curled his lips coldly, shook his sword, pointed his toes, and quickly stepped forward, stabbing vertically with the sword, with a pop.

He was stunned!
Hu Sandao's broadsword was stuck heavily on the ground, and he held it firmly with one hand, laughing nonstop.

Ning Guang looked at the sharp sword stuck in his chest that pierced through the armor, looked at him stupidly, and murmured: "Why?"

Hu Sandao pulled out his sword forcefully and threw it at his feet. He couldn't help but knelt down on one knee and said, "Ning Guang, I only want to compete with you in this life, and I want to win you!" One game, but in fact, I have never won." He spat out a mouthful of blood: "I don't want to admit it, but I am not as good as you."

Ning Guang staggered up to him and knelt down, "You..."

"I'm tired, and I don't want to continue the competition." Hu Sandao smiled and said, "Admitting defeat is actually not that difficult, is it?"

Ning Guang pursed his lips and remained silent.

Hu Sandao looked at him: "Ning Guang, don't go into the city, or it will be your hell."

Ning Guang's pupils shrank, his face changed slightly: "Why?"

Hu Sandao's body trembled, and he vomited another mouthful of blood. He said in relief, "That's right, I'll pay back the life of Brother Three Thousand!"

That's right, give them back their lives, so that he can leave with peace of mind, and from now on, there will be no more burdens and heavy burdens!
