The new era of chaos begins in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 264 The Invincible Gao Gongji
  Hu Yanping felt a lot of regret in his heart. He thought that he was the leader of the royal palace, the deputy commander of the Imperial City Department, and the top master who sat behind the scenes of the capital. How had he ever suffered such a big loss in his life?

If he hadn't separated from his subordinates, if he hadn't given up his mount, the situation would have been completely different.

Of course, the most worthless thing in the world is regret medicine. Now that the matter has come to a point, Hu Yanping can't be too entangled. Of course, he doesn't have the leisure time to regret, because his most important thing now is to deal with this group of irritable people in front of him. In front of the bird man and woman, he had to save his precarious life.

Hu Yanping is decisive in everything he does, but if he wants to do something, he will never hesitate to do anything. Of course, this is not the time to do so.

It only takes three or two rounds, and his life is about to be lost. Hu Yanping will not be able to do anything if he is not decisive!
  Ergou and the others were somewhat concerned about Hu Yanping's identity, so when Hu Yanping shouted, they almost subconsciously restrained their methods and did not directly take the life of the deputy commander of the Imperial City Division.

Of course out of caution, Ergou stabbed Hu Yanping in the shoulder. This shot was not fatal, but it would cause Hu Yanping's combat power to be compromised before the wound healed.

Although Hu Yanping was very angry in his heart and hated Ergou for a long time, he did not dare to show it on his face.

There is nothing we can do. People under the eaves have to lower their heads.

He endured the pain on his shoulders and said in a hissing voice: "Fellow heroes, a certain family is a detective from the Imperial City. He is on an imperial mission, but I don't know how he collided with the hero Huwei? I actually caused you to fight and kill me?"

Although Hu Yanping said it politely, he thought bitterly in his heart that when his subordinates would catch up later, he would cut the nasty little kid in front of him into pieces, so that he could relieve the depression in his heart.

Ergou couldn't sense Hu Yanping's malice, but he sneered and said, "Commander Hu Yan, it's meaningless for you to say this. Your self-appointed emperor's messenger came to hunt us down, but here you are showing off your words and talking nonsense. Are you trying to fool me like a fool?"

Hu Yanping was shocked when he heard this, and asked in surprise: "You actually know my identity?! Then you still want to besiege me? Wait, who are you guys?"

Ergou sneered: "Do you, the deputy commander of your majestic city department, know who we are?! This is a joke!"

Hu Yanping said with a somewhat ugly expression: "I interrogated two monks in Fengqiu earlier. I heard that some Buddhist masters are hunting down a group of wealthy men and women?"

Speaking of this, Hu Yanping glanced at Xue Daoguang and asked, "Are you the lay masters sent by Daxiangguo Temple?!"

It's not like Hu Yanping didn't really know the identities of Ergou and others. It's not like the spies of the Imperial City Division were just doing it for a living. Their investigative and intelligence gathering abilities were quite good. Regarding the identities of Ergou and his group, Hu Yanping had not thought of them at first sight, but during the only time they had met, he had already matched their identities with relevant information one by one.

The killer who rebelled against the Forbidden Army, the founder of Jingguan, the disruptor of order in Bianliang City, and of course the title of "enemy of Gao Gongji", are all labels that the Imperial City Division anchors Ergou and his group.

But for Hu Yanping, these identities of Ergou and his group were harmful to his current situation, so he could only pretend to be stupid.

Hu Yanping's main purpose is to delay time.

It's a pity that Hu Yanping's pretending to be stupid couldn't fool Ergou, but his purpose of delaying time was temporarily achieved.

Ergou smiled and said: "Commander Huyan, since you want to pretend to be stupid, I won't force you. But can you tell me, what exactly is your so-called emperor's mission?"

Hu Yanping pretended to be embarrassed and hesitated for a moment, but then said: "This matter is not an ulterior secret, it's just that it's hard to talk about it openly. To be honest, I'll wait until I leave the capital this time. , on the surface it is to track down the murderer behind the tragedy of the Mengjiazhuang Forbidden Army, but secretly the real purpose is to wait for an opportunity to surround and kill Gao Gongji."

Surround and kill Gao Gongji?
  Anyone in the capital who knew Gao Gongji's life was not surprised by this.

Including Ergou and the others, those who had experienced the era of Empress Dowager Gao did not find it strange at all. After all, Empress Dowager Gao used Gao Gongji as a knife and tormented everyone in the world.

The reason why Zhezong's official family has so much faith in the New Party today is because before Zhezong came to power, he and the New Party were in the same boat. They were both targeted by Empress Dowager Gao. They were both unlucky men who endured hardships in the same trenches. Even the reason why Emperor Zhezong's body was Such carelessness is partly due to innateness, and partly due to the hardships he encountered before taking office.

In terms of Zhe Zong's ability, he can definitely be regarded as a wise king, but he is also famous for holding grudges.

Everyone in Bianliang City knows that Emperor Zhezong will definitely liquidate the Gao family. It should be said that this liquidation is now underway. For example, the fashionable and ascendant [Wenjifu Case] ​​is exactly what Emperor Zhezong, a representative of the New Party, said to Empress Dowager Gao. Counterattack.

Therefore, it was not an unexpected move for the masters of the Imperial City Division to intercept Gao Gongji at this time, but why did Hu Yanping and others come here to intercept Gao Gongji? !

Ergou quickly thought of a possibility and asked himself: "Commander Huyan, is Gao Gongji coming this way?"

Hu Yanping was wondering why his family didn't come here yet, but he said: "That's right! But I don't know how you offended that guy, little brother, and he actually came to pursue you and so on. Brother Chen, please forgive me. A certain family is too talkative, and that Gao Gongji is really not easy to mess with. As long as you use other methods... you can deal with Gao Gongji, but it's a bit reluctant."

Perhaps Gao Gongji was indeed invincible in the early years, but now that Hu Yanping has grown up, he thinks that he is not weaker than him. Therefore, it is difficult to say that Ergou and others cannot deal with Gao Gongji. He only uses the word "barely" as an indication. .

Hu Yanping forced a smile and suggested: "If only you and I joined forces, we would be absolutely foolproof against Gao Gongji!"

As he said this, his eyes couldn't help but look for the figures of his subordinates. He wanted to see how those idiots didn't come to help.

Then Hu Yanping saw a scene that frightened him inexplicably.

But on the road under the hill, the group of masters from the Imperial City Division were suffering an unprecedented fatal blow.

Of the thirteen Imperial City Division experts carefully selected by Hu Yanping, four of them were shot through the torso by thick arrows in the blink of an eye. Two of them died on the spot, and the other two also suffered heavy injuries and temporarily lost their combat effectiveness. .

Then a knight came out from the back of another hill. The knight was holding a black and shiny horse spear, and stabbed three more Imperial City masters to death with just one look.

At this time, there were only six experts left in the Imperial City Division. Two of them shouted arrogantly and came to greet the knight with a big knife and a long axe. In an instant, the big knife and the big ax were with the horse. It hit countless times.

It can be seen that the men who use big swords and big axes are not weak in martial arts. It can even be said that they are all at the top level, almost better than Xue Daoguang.

The sharp sword technique of the sword was so precise that the light from the sword was like splashing water, which was amazing. The other person's big ax was even more powerful. Almost every blow had the power to split mountains and open rocks.

But when they faced that black and oily horse, they were like a bald chicken meeting a golden phoenix, always giving people a dull and stiff feeling.

That horse pole is so agile, as if it has been injected with soul and life by its owner. Every blow is so wonderful, so just right, as if it is a miracle, and it makes the top of the two Imperial City Divisions The master feels that his hands and feet are constrained and uncomfortable when attacking.

Soon Ma Shan broke through the defense of the big sword and battle axe. The man wielding the big ax was slapped on the back by Ma Shan, and he immediately vomited blood and fell off the horse. Hu Yanping, who was on the top of the hill, couldn't help but exclaimed: "No! It's my brother Zhou Ji who was injured! Mr. Gao Gongji was so shameless that he came to sneak attack on us!"

At this time, the remaining four Imperial City Division masters who had not yet taken action were just waking up from a dream. They also rushed forward with swords, spears and halberds, intending to fight the enemy together with the master who wielded the big sword.

However, the difference in force between them and their opponents was a bit big. After only a few rounds, only the man who wielded the big sword and the master who wielded the halberd were left to fight against Gao Gongji.

But at this time, the two of them had already lost the confidence to fight, and they were just desperately resisting the powerful attack from Gao Gongji.

The man who wielded the big sword was the second to last one to fall. He was pierced by the black oil horse spear on his right shoulder, and was directly knocked off his horse. The last man who wielded the halberd had already given up in despair. He resisted, just froze there with his eyes closed, waiting to die.

Who would have thought that Gao Gongji did not kill him, but said coldly: "Your halberd technique is indeed exquisite, but your basic skills are too poor, but you have not been able to exert one or two points of the power of the painted halberd. It is a pity."

Then Gao Gongji ignored the other party and the screams of mourners all over the ground, and rode straight towards the mound here.

A more reassuring news for Hu Yanping is that Gao Gongji showed mercy to the people of the Imperial City Division.

Except for the two unlucky guys who were shot dead by Gao Gongji with arrows at the beginning, and the other three unlucky guys who were stabbed to death by him, the remaining few people could be considered injured but not dead.

This means that Gao Gongji still has the Song Dynasty and the imperial court in his heart, and the Gao family is still the loyal and brave family of generals of the Song Dynasty.

But this did not make Hu Yanping feel much joy. On the contrary, his heart was full of regret and despair at this time.

Hu Yanping certainly regretted it. If he had not left the team, this team of experts from the Imperial City Division carefully selected by him would never have suffered such a miserable defeat.

What made Hu Yanping despair was that Gao Gongji's force was much stronger than he expected. This meant that without the assistance of his subordinates, he could no longer intercept and kill Gao Gongji. Unless another group of powerful external forces join in.

Thinking of this, Hu Yanping turned his attention to Ergou and others. He said: "Everyone, Gao Gongji is here. I don't know what grudge you have against him. But I am very sure that I am not his opponent. I think you I can’t beat him. Only you and I can join forces at this time, so that we can defeat him!”

Everyone had just glimpsed the ferocious power of Gao Gongji's fellow, and had experienced Hu Yanping's bravery with their own hands, so when Hu Yanping just suggested it, they were quite moved.

Especially Xue Daoguang, who was the most powerful among them, felt that Hu Yanping's proposal was quite feasible. He knew that Ergou, the youngest, was the backbone of the group, so he persuaded him: "Brother Chen, Hu Yanping is in command. It’s true, we alone can’t defeat Gao Junzheng. The poor monk... the poor Taoist thinks it’s better for everyone to join forces to fight against the enemy!”

Ergou shook his head and sneered: "Although the proposal is good, it's a pity that I can't trust you, Commander Hu Yan, and it also goes against my plan. Everyone, it is true that Gao Gongji is invincible. Can we trust Hu Yanping? We The BMW horse he is riding on is really good. If he can’t beat Gao Gongji, how can he not outrun him?!”

When everyone heard this, they were all a little uneasy. Although the sentence "Don't be afraid of opponents who are like gods, but be afraid of teammates who are like pigs" may be the words of later generations, the ancients did not understand the same truth, especially The military generals of the Song Dynasty felt the deepest feelings.

If it weren't for the unreliable constraints of the Emperor and civil servants of the Song Dynasty, the millions of forbidden troops of the Song Dynasty would have overthrown the world, and why would there be today's Xixia and Liao.

Hu Yanping heard Ergou's words, but he shouted with some embarrassment: "Huangkou boy knows very well! You can avoid today, but as long as Gao Gongji keeps chasing you, you will still fall prey to him sooner or later." Damn it! Since you will die sooner or later, why not take this opportunity to fight to the death?!"

Ergou said with a smile: "It's better to die later than to die early. Boy, I'm very afraid of death! Since Commander Huyan is willing to fight to the death for high public discipline, then I wish you immediate success!"

At this point, Ergou didn't care about Hu Yanping's livid face, but said in a deep voice: "Hu Yanping, I have something to tell you. As the deputy commander of the Imperial City Division, you must have some knowledge of my origin and background. Quite knowledgeable.

But there are some secrets that you may or may not know, I will tell you.

I, Chen Ergou, was born in Xiangzhou, and I am still three months away from reaching the age of fourteen. Although I have learned from the elder of the clan, Zhenshan Taibao Chen Tongei, I have not practiced martial arts for less than a year, and I can only be considered a beginner in martial arts.

Although Gao Gongji was strong, I never took him to heart because I believed that I would be stronger than him in the future, and I couldn't even predict where my own limits would be.

Hu Yanping, you should know that I have a lot of concerns among the people in the capital. I hope that after this incident is over, they can all live in the capital without being disturbed. Commander Huyan, can you understand what I mean by these words? "

How could Hu Yanping not understand the meaning of Ergou's words? He said angrily: "You kid, how dare you threaten me?!"

Ergou shook his head and said: "This is not a threat, I am just stating the facts. Commander Hu Yan, I am not afraid to tell you another secret. I was also the one who galloped at night on the streets of the capital a few days ago.

oh! You've guessed it! Then guess how those forbidden soldiers in Mengjiazhuang died? !
  Hahaha - don't be angry! Be aware that excessive anger can harm the body...

Okay, let’s not joke with you, Commander Huyan!
  In fact, I quite appreciate today's officials. If they ask about me, I would like to ask you to tell them just one sentence.

For me, the land of the capital is both a concern and a constraint. It is also a place where I accept my name and official status. I only ask him to treat me well. But when the official family is here, I will hide in the countryside without saying a word or thinking about it. Only the great Song Dynasty will flourish for thousands of years. "

Hu Yanping was no longer angry at this time, and only sneered: "Child of the Chen family, don't you think you are too arrogant when you say this?!"

Ergou laughed and said, "Whether I, Chen Ergou, is arrogant or not is up to you, Hu Yanping! Everyone, go ahead! I will meet Gao Gongji, and then I will chase you!"

When everyone heard this, they all hesitated.

Xue Daoguang suggested: "Brother Chen, Gao Gongji is brave and invincible. If you go to see him yourself, you might get into trouble. It would be better if I go there early together."

Ergou looked at Gao Gongji, who was already walking halfway up the hill, and said, "No! You have all seen Gao Gongji's archery skills with your own eyes just now. If I don't hold him back, I'm afraid the big guy will No one can leave!"

When Li Shouzhen and others heard this, their expressions became condensed, and Li Assistant asked: "How can the lord get away after I leave?!"

The two dogs laughed and said: "Don't worry, gentlemen, I have a way to escape! Everyone, please go! Jiao Dong, please take my horse, Zhaoxue, with you!"

　Corrected.
