Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

Just as a woman who sang a unique tune of Wu in Wu Nong's soft language ended her performance and slowly left, Gan Ning suddenly stood up and said loudly before the next scheduled show came on.

"I heard that Li Juncheng made great achievements in the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Why did he arrange a program that was full of Wu Nong's soft talk and without a trace of masculinity? Why don't you let me dance the sword for you, and look at my Yizhou martial arts? "How's the wind?"

As soon as these words came out, the originally lively banquet was slightly startled.

Magistrate Dantu, who was sitting in the banquet, was the most panicked. He was afraid that if he ruined Li Ji's arrangement, his head would be hung on Dantu's city gate. He almost gestured to the magistrate with his eyes:

'Is this the program you arranged? '

The county magistrate, who also looked confused, blinked and responded to a message with his eyes.

'I don't make it! '

'Then why don't you hurry up and get this stupid young man out? ! '

Magistrate Dantu was so angry that his eyes could almost speak, and he winked at the magistrate crazily.

After all, ever since Xiang Yu hosted a Hongmen Banquet for Emperor Gaozu and arranged for Xiang Zhuang to perform a sword dance.

Although sword dancing at banquets has been a mainstream program since the Han Dynasty, it has become a very sensitive act to take the initiative to dance swords between two different forces.

As for Zhao Yun, who was sitting with Li Ji, his palms were secretly pressed on the sword at his waist. He was not only wary of Gan Ning, but also wary of whether Liu Zhang would behave in any way.

Nowadays, the Han Dynasty worships martial arts, not to mention officials or scholars. They usually wear swords around their waists to show their martial style!

Therefore, not only did Li Ji have a sword on his waist at this moment, but Liu Zhang also had a sword on his waist.

When Li Ji was in Julu, he could still spare some time to practice his sword skills every day, but after arriving in Wu County, Li Ji had already lost this free time.

Therefore, as Gan Ning stood up, Zhao Yun's nerves became extremely tense almost immediately, fearing that these people from Yizhou would do something inappropriate and hurt Li Ji.

However, compared to Zhao Yun's nervousness, Li Ji's expression remained normal.

It's not that Li Ji knew Liu Zhang's intentions and thoughts, but that Li Ji knew that even if Liu Zhang had the intention to kill him, he would not take the risk of launching an attack here, and even Liu Zhang himself was sitting here.

If Li Ji was assassinated, Liu Zhang would be the first person unable to leave Wu County.

Therefore, Li Ji held up the wine cup, looked at Gan Ning who stood up to speak, and asked Liu Zhang with interest.

"Who is this one?"

At this moment, Liu Zhang also regretted accepting Gan Ning. He didn't expect that Gan Ning was so unruly, so he had no choice but to reply.

"This man's name is Gan Xingba, and he is a small official in Ba County."

This sentence can be said to have completely wiped out the relationship between himself and Gan Ning, and it even made Gan Ning's heart freeze.

Perhaps Gan Ning didn't know why Liu Zhang visited Wu Commandery, but Gan Ning knew that negotiations and exchanges must not be blindly weak.

Therefore, Gan Ning stood up because he was dissatisfied with Liu Zhang's behavior. At the same time, he also intended to demonstrate to Wu County as a member of Yizhou, so as to provide Liu Zhang with the confidence to negotiate, and also to teach Wu County that Yizhou was not deserted. .

However, Liu Zhang's words obviously meant that he had accepted Gan Ning as his personal guard half a day ago. His blatant and eager move to sever ties with Gan Ning was undoubtedly a huge humiliation to Gan Ning.

This made Gan Ning's face turn red with anger almost on the spot!

On the contrary, Li Ji became somewhat interested when he heard the name "Gan Xingba".

Although Gan Ning had certain flaws in his character and was quite high-profile and arrogant in his behavior, he was still a ruthless man who was known as the "Hundred Riders Robbery Camp" in history, and he could be regarded as a brave and resourceful person.

And after Liu Zhang publicly distanced himself from Gan Ning, Gan Ning was undoubtedly in a very embarrassing situation now. He could neither advance nor retreat, and his face turned red.

When Li Ji saw this, his heart moved, but he took the initiative to give Gan Ning a step up and said.

"Ji has long heard that Shu has the reputation of the 'Land of Abundance'. He regrets that he has never had the opportunity to go to Shu to see it in this life. However, it would be a blessing to see the beauty of Shu from Gan Xingba. Please give me permission. Ba dances with the sword, and Ji plays the drums for you."

As soon as he said this, Gan Ning couldn't help but feel grateful in his eyes.

In such an embarrassing situation, he was pulled out by someone he deliberately provoked. This was something Gan Ning never expected.

And with Li Ji's words, Gan Ning's next step was to perform the sword dance, so he wouldn't have no reason to retreat in embarrassment.

But this reason is no longer to dance to support Liu Zhang, but to promote the martial arts in Sichuan.

As Li Ji took over the tambourine and began to beat it lightly, Gan Ning also pulled out the sword from his waist and danced with it.

Sword dance!

In this era, almost all scholars and generals knew each other, but everyone's swordsmanship and style were very different.

Gan Ning's sword dance is full of bravery and high-pitched, with great opening and closing, which is very enjoyable to watch.

Li Ji, who had studied swordsmanship with Zhao Yun for a period of time, also had a certain ability to appreciate it. The tambourine in his hand echoed Gan Ning's sword dance.

When Liu Zhang saw that Li Ji was not angry at all because of Gan Ning's rudeness, but was rather interested, he gradually relaxed and calmly enjoyed the sword dance performed by Gan Ning and Li Ji.

More importantly, Liu Zhang was already thinking about how to praise Li Ji's drumming skills later.

If possible, Liu Zhang felt that he might not be able to worship Li Ji as his adoptive father. In this way, the relationship between the two parties would be much more stable. If he successfully invited Li Ji to Sichuan, there would be no need to worry about failure to achieve great things and unstable status.

However, Liu Zhang didn't notice at all that Gan Ning was dancing his sword, but he was also getting closer to Liu Zhang. Occasionally, he looked at Liu Zhang with a fierce look in his eyes. 'Liu Zhang's son humiliates me like this. As a man, how can he tolerate it? '

'It's better to kill him with a sword, then gather the Jinfan thieves who are accompanying him in the fleet, and directly fall into Yangzhou as bandits. Even if Liu Yan, the herdsman of Yizhou, is angry with me, what can he do to me? '

The more Gan Ning thought about it, the more murderous intent grew in his heart, and the sword dance that originally displayed a broad opening and closing also became more chilling.

Suddenly, just after Gan Ning approached Liu Zhang at a certain distance, the sword light suddenly changed and flew towards Liu Zhang.

However, before the sword light could reach a certain distance from Liu Zhang, Zhao Yun, who had been on guard for a long time, was shocked that it was Liu Zhang that Gan Ning assassinated, not Li Ji, but his movements were not slow at all.

"Whoosh!"

Liu Zhang, who was immersed in his own thoughts, only heard a sound of breaking through the air, and then saw two Han swords colliding together in front of his eyes.

"Gan Xingba, if you dance alone, you are just seeing the martial arts of Yizhou. How about you let me, Zhao Zilong, dance with you for a while?"

Zhao Yun said he was humble, but without any hesitation in his movements, he directly knocked the Han Sword away from Gan Ning's hand, then stood up and stood in front of Gan Ning.

Immediately, the Han sword in Zhao Yun's hand stabbed Gan Ning.

Gan Ning, who was shocked by the speed at which Zhao Yun drew his sword, lost all his previous contempt for Zhao Yun and quickly raised his sword to block.

For a moment, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning were in the small space in the middle of the banquet. Accompanied by the increasingly urgent drum beat, both sides drew their swords faster and faster.

The wonderful sword skills displayed by the collision between the two Han swords made everyone present unable to take their eyes away and thought it was wonderful.

The situation seemed to be evenly matched, but only Gan Ning complained secretly, knowing that he was actually firmly suppressed by Zhao Yun.

The obvious difference in strength made Gan Ning feel like he was facing that middle-aged fisherman again.

As the increasingly exciting drum beat suddenly stopped, the Han swords that Zhao Yun and Gan Ning collided with also stopped.

"What a wonderful sword dance!"

Immediately, as Li Ji took the lead to put down the tambourine and clapped softly and said something to confirm, the rest of the people present also joined in with their praise.

Only Liu Zhang clapped his hands, but a flash of surprise flashed through his heart.

Although Liu Zhang was distracted just now, Gan Ning's sword was too close to him, so close that Liu Zhang was afraid.

If Gan Ning's Han sword was just a little further away, Liu Zhang's blood would be splattered on the spot.

And among the cheers, compared to Gan Ning's somewhat breathless performance, Zhao Yun still maintained his calm and humble attitude and took the initiative to offer his hand.

"Accepted!"

Immediately, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning sheathed their swords and sat back in their seats, as if all this was just a normal sword dance to add to the fun.

The banquet continued as usual.

Just waiting for the banquet to disperse, Liu Zhang left the county government office under the protection of the personnel arranged by Li Ji and headed towards the city posthouse to check in and rest.

Liu Zhang's little eyes turned around with a fierce light and looked at the guards behind him, as if he was looking for something.

However, Gan Ning was not among them.

This made Liu Zhang more certain of a certain guess and asked further. "Where is Gan Xingba? Has anyone seen where Gan Xingba went?"

However, none of the guards noticed when Gan Xingba disappeared.

"Humph!"

Liu Zhang sneered and ordered. "Immediately go and take control of the governor of Bajun and all his confidants and imprison them."

Although Liu Zhang didn't know why Gan Ning wanted to assassinate him, it is an indisputable fact that Gan Ning failed to assassinate him by dancing with a sword and fled in fear of crime. His heart should be punished!

Gan Xingba can run, how can Jiang Zhi, who recommended Gan Ning, run?

Can the Gan family of Bajun escape?

Liu Zhang flicked his sleeves, and the hatred in his eyes became even greater.

……

In the county government office, as the banquet dispersed, Liu Zhang and the Dantu County officials who accompanied him dispersed, while Li Ji went directly to the backyard of the county government office to rest briefly.

However, Li Ji had just left the main hall where the banquet was held and walked towards the backyard.

Zhao Yun, who was originally following Li Ji, suddenly took two steps forward past Li Ji. He put his sword on his waist with one hand and protected Li Ji behind him with the other, and shouted.

"Still not coming out yet?!"

Immediately, in a dark corner ahead, Gan Ning slowly walked out, and then knelt down directly in front of Li Ji and said.

"Gan Xingba impulsively committed a catastrophe and asked Mr. Zikun to save me!" (End of Chapter)
