Chapter 33 - Escaping from danger

There were many moves that took a long time to describe, but the truth was that only one or two breaths of time had passed!

Just a moment ago, wooden youth was still thirty meters away, but a moment later, he had already arrived at the slope and grabbed the Young Generals in his hands!

At that moment, all of Young Generals's acupoints were sealed, and he could not say a single word. Only his eyes showed fear! Ever since he followed the Emperor Kang, he had been favored by the Emperor Kang. As of now, he had tens of thousands of troops under his command, and all of the people who were trying to stop Zhao Chen this time were all his subordinates! In the past, he felt that he was an expert in martial arts, so no one other than Han Shizhong could compare to him. But now, he was knocked down to the ground by a young man who looked like an ordinary peasant in just a few punches and kicks!

The deputy generals and personal guards on the side also found it hard to believe! One had to know that he was a rising star in the Western Army, a super strong warrior who was only second to Han Shizhong in his generation, yet he was stepped on by an honest farmer.

Silence reigned on the mountainside, but the sounds of fighting could still be heard from afar.

"Stop them all!" wooden youth said.

The surrounding janissaries looked at each other. No one spoke a word! At this very moment, they didn't know what to do. Before they had taken action, they had never expected such a change!

"Your generals have been captured, stop!" The young man's voice sounded once again!

This time, he was not talking to the soldiers around him. Instead, he was talking to the numerous soldiers below the hill! His voice wasn't loud, but it reached within a few kilometers! The battle cries were still loud and there was even the sound of wind in the distance. However, his voice was actually able to suppress the sounds of thousands of soldiers and horses as well as the sound of wind. His voice reached the ears of thousands of soldiers around him!

This shocking scene caused all the soldiers to be stunned. Countless of soldiers turned their gaze towards the top of the hill! When they saw a farmer holding onto their general, countless soldiers were stunned. Following that, 'bang bang bang' sounds could be heard incessantly. The weapons in many soldiers' hands had uncontrollably fallen off their weapons!

"The general seems to have been captured by the enemy …"

"Who is that person? The general is an Upper Sky warrior, how could he be caught? "

"Moreover, the general has many experts protecting him! The personal guards of the general are all peak Houtian experts! "

The sounds of fighting on the battlefield had stopped. At this moment, all that could be heard were murmurs of discussion. All the soldiers were filled with disbelief!

Zhao Chen, Li Gang and the rest were slowly heading towards the mountain slope, the soldiers in front hesitated for a moment before they let them go! Zhao Chen, Li Gang and the others could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

Zhao Chen was both surprised and happy, he too! Ever since he came to this era, he knew that martial arts were not fabricated by his descendants. There were indeed true martial arts masters in this world! His ancestor, the Song ancestor, Zhao Kuangyin had used a pair of fists to defeat the Jiang Shan, and Wang De, who had taught him martial arts, was also the number one expert among the Imperial Guards! But at this moment, he felt that Wang De and that wooden youth was still way off, he couldn't be plotted against!

In the past, when the Three Kingdoms put on an act, they said that Guan Yu had "taken the head of the army", and killed Yan Liangwen and Wu-Shuang by himself in the midst of thousands of troops and horses, his kung fu was unparalleled! At this moment, Zhao Chen felt that the wooden youth's martial arts skills were not much weaker than Guan Yu's. It was also within this large army of thousands of men and horses that one person flew up to stop the enemy's commander in chief!

"Who is this person?" I didn't have time to ask for his name just now! " Zhao Chen secretly thought.

"Who is this person?" At this moment, Li Gang had the same question in his heart!

"I am afraid that even the strongest person in Western Army, Han Shizhong, is not his match! Such an expert must be invited to the side of His Highness the Crown Prince! " Li Gang had such a thought!

"Teacher, who is the general over there?" Zhao Chen said.

"From the looks of it, it seems to be Zhang Jun!" Li Gang observed carefully for a moment, and said.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" It's actually him! " Zhao Chen was shocked, the person up there was actually one of the four generals of the ZTE of the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhang Jun! After knowing it was Zhang Jun, he admired that wooden youth even more in his heart! The four generals of ZTE had been defeated so easily by the wooden youth!

"Your Highness, this Zhang Jun is the young genius of the Western Army! Back then when the Western Army was seeking revenge on Fang La, he had also contributed greatly to the battle. Many of the generals under Fang La's command were killed by him! It's just that he was the same as Han Shizhong, he did not have a good background, so her speed of promotion was extremely slow! If not for the fact that they have pledged allegiance to the Emperor Kang, they would be just minor deputy Generals of the Western Army! " Li Gang said.

Zhao Chen nodded, he knew all of these things! Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun and the others may have higher martial arts and battle achievements, but they were born with a poor background, so it was impossible for them to become a general in the army! Fortunately, they were in a chaotic world and had pledged allegiance to the Kang Wang Zhao Zhuang.

They walked forward one step at a time, and when they reached the top of the slope, the wooden youth nodded towards Zhao Chen, greeting him.

Zhao Chen smiled and sized Zhang Jun up first! Zhang Jun's appearance was average, but his face gave off a firm and unswerving feeling. With one look, one could tell that he was a person who had been in the army for many years.

"Alright, your general has been captured by us! Now get a few horses and let us go! When we get to a safe place, we will let you go, General Zhang! " Li Gang looked at the janissaries and deputy generals around him and said.

The personal guards on the other side were all looking at each other in dismay. At this moment, the generals of Zhang Jun's army had arrived one by one, and the generals were gathered together to discuss about this matter. No one knew what to do now! Unlike Liu Guangshi's Liu Jiajia, Liu Jiajia had followed the Liu father and son for many years, and was completely loyal to them! These troops in front of him were all sent by under her command after she arrived at Xiangzhou! That was why these troops were not very loyal to Zhang Jun alone. Instead, they were completely loyal to the Emperor Kang!

Killing Zhao Chen was an order of the Kang Wang Zhao Zhuang, not a personal order of Zhang Jun!

But now that Zhang Jun had been captured, most of them did not know Zhao Chen's identity. Even if there were people who knew, they would not dare to say it! In the eyes of the majority of the people, Zhang Jun was much more important than the five in front of them.

"If we let you go, you will also keep our general!" One of the deputy generals said after a while.

"Impossible!" Only after we leave and reach a safe place will we release your generals! " Li Gang shook his head.

"What if you don't keep your promise and don't release our general?" The deputy general said.

"This old man is Li Gang, have you ever heard of him?" Li Gang said.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The surrounding generals and janissaries burst into an uproar. That Lieutenant General's face revealed a look of disbelief!

"How do you prove that you are Lord Li?" said the deputy general.

"This old man's words are as good as gold. I will not speak nonsense. It's up to you whether you believe me or not!" Now get the horses! " Li Gang said.

At this moment, some of the generals and janissaries guessed that what Li Gang said might be true! If it were not to deal with an important figure like Li Gang, why would they have to send out so many troops! If it was just killing five ordinary people, there wouldn't even be a need for an army! Of course they did not know that the Emperor Kang was doing this to deal with the crown prince and not Li Gang!

Li Gang had finished speaking, but the generals and janissaries were still hesitating, they still did not know what to do!

At this moment, time was of the essence. Kang Wang Zhao Zhuang might come at any time, and Liu Guangshi might even follow them again! To them, the surroundings of the Xiangzhou City was incomparably dangerous! Li Gang frowned, and said: "Your Highness, may I borrow your sword?!"

Zhao Chen handed over his own Seven Star Dragon's Abyss Sword over to Li Gang. Li Gang took it out and placed it on Zhang Jun's arm, saying: "I'll count to three, if you guys still don't let him through, I'll cut off one of his arms! "One..."

When the number "one" was counted, there was already a commotion below!

"Two!"

"Three!"

By the time he had counted to three, Li Gang was ready to slash down with the Seven Star Dragon's Abyss Blade! If he still did not allow him through, he would cut off Zhang Jun's other arm or thigh!

"Hold on!" Finally, one of the high-ranking officers opened his mouth and said, "We can discuss this!"

"This matter is not open to discussion!" "Bring your horse over!" Li Gang said coldly.

The sword in his hand slowly moved down, causing blood to flow out from Zhang Jun's arm!

At this moment, the officers no longer dared to hesitate!

Finally someone brought their horse over. Li Gang, Zhao Chen and the rest rode their horses and went forward.

Don't send anyone to chase them, or Zhang Jun will die without a doubt! We will let him off when we reach the front! I, Li Gang, will definitely not lie to you all! " Li Gang's voice once again sounded from the slope.

The crowd left in a cloud of dust …

Li Gang, Zhao Chen and the rest galloped for two hours. wooden youth shouted coldly and threw Zhang Jun to the ground!

Zhang Jun's meridians were still sealed, he lied on the ground and could not say a single word, but his eyes were filled with anger and hatred! Although he was of low birth and his promotion was slow, he had never suffered such humiliation in his life! In front of thousands of men and horses, in front of his subordinates, he was knocked down to the ground by an honest farmer.

"Crown Prince, Zhao Chen, you deserve to die! If you let me suffer such humiliation, I will definitely kill you! No, not only will I kill you, I'll make you suffer all the humiliation in the world before I kill you! Damn thing! You think you are worthy of competing against the Emperor Kang for the world? " Zhang Jun clenched his teeth!

After another two hours, the sound of horses galloping finally came from the distance. Zhang Jun's subordinates had finally caught up!

Amongst the army, there was a man dressed in yellow who had a refined look on his face. He was Song Dynasty's Kang Wang Zhao Zhuang!

Zhao Gou had already jumped down from his horse, a few of Zhao Gou's subordinates came over to Zhang Jun's side, they wanted to remove Zhang Jun's acupoints, but wooden youth's inner strength was extremely profound, almost to the extent of being invincible, even after using all their might, they were still unable to remove Zhang Jun's acupoints! After a while, another person came over. It was Liu Guangshi!

"This lowly general is incompetent, he actually let that person go!" Zhang Jun said with a face full of shame.

"This is not your fault. I never thought that he would have such an expert by his side!" Zhao Gou patted Zhang Jun's shoulder and said gently.

"This lowly general's skills are still lacking! This time, not only did you fail to complete His Highness' mission, but you also received such an insult in front of an army of thousands! " Zhang Jun clenched his teeth and said.

"As a high-ranking officer, not only is one's martial arts strong enough! No matter how high his martial arts were, he was still just a man! Only those who knew how to lead soldiers to war were the real generals! What I want to appoint you, Zhang Jun, as my general, is your ability to lead troops to war and not just your martial arts! " Zhao Gou laughed.

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness!" Zhang Jun said gratefully.

"Don't worry, I will kill them all to avenge you!" Zhao Gou said.

"Yes sir!" Zhang Jun nodded, but when he thought about the martial arts of wooden youth, he was still shocked.

"Your Highness, that person has escaped. How should we deal with him?" The majority of Hebei and Hedong are occupied by the Nvzhen, so we can't use any more army to chase after him. " Liu Guangshi said.

Zhao Gou stayed silent for a while and said: "Simple! Immediately spread the news, say that the crown prince was killed by the Jin Army, and now that someone is pretending to be the crown prince, tell all the officials in the world not to believe it! "

"Your Highness, you have a great plan!" "The people of the world were already skeptical of the crown prince's ability to escape from Kaifeng, but now that you sent someone to say such words, I'm afraid no one believes that he is the real crown prince anymore!" Liu Guangshi praised from the side.

"I heard that the Imperial Jade Seal is with him. This Imperial Jade Seal must be obtained! Unfortunately, I don't have any other experts under my command, and Han Shizhong would not do such a thing for me! Forget it, let's just think of another way in the future! Even if the Imperial Jade Seal fell into the hands of the Nvzhen, it would be better than falling into his hands! " Zhao Gou secretly thought.

"Tonight, the soldiers are tired. Pass my order, the soldiers will be rewarded with meat and wine. Let them have a full meal!" Zhao Gou looked around and said.

In that moment, all the surrounding soldiers let out the thousand years old voice of the Emperor Kang! Right now, the Xiangzhou was short of supplies, so the soldiers could not eat their fill. Now, they were beginning to think of Zhao Gou's kindness.

Regarding the incident that happened here, Zhao Chen and the rest did not even know!

They had been walking for a long time, and only at dawn did they stop in a deserted village.
