Chapter 658: Deathmatch, Snake's Fangs
Zhao Siliang's surname is Zhao, Zhao of Zhao Song. He is a descendant of the royal family.
In the eyes of others, with this layer of identity, Zhao Siliang must have a bright future and a smooth road. But the fact is completely opposite, it is precisely because of this level of identity that even if he has both civil and military skills, has strategies and means, and has a mysterious martial arts, and has also been admitted to the Jinshi, but he can only get the idle of an eight-rank petty official, it is difficult to make a difference at all, let alone show his ambitions.
And the reason is that he is not Zhao Guangyi Zhao Jiong's Zhao, but Zhao Kuangyin's Zhao, who is a descendant of the side branch of Taizu's lineage. As we all know, since Emperor Taizong inherited the unification, the situation of the descendants of Taizu has become embarrassing. If it is a direct descendant, he can still be raised by the imperial court and be a group of incompetent and useless rich people with wine bags and rice bags, but a collateral child like Zhao Siliang has almost no benefit, but due to this identity, it is extremely difficult to gain a foothold in the officialdom.
Zhao Siliang was unwilling to waste his life when he was a child, so he has studied hard for 30 years, whether it is classics of history, poetry and songs, or the art of war, he has dabbled in it, and has his own opinions. And among them, he is even more talented in martial arts, and after years of hard training, he is already a rare master in the world, especially the treacherous and multilateral short knife kung fu, which is praised by the people in the capital, and therefore has the nickname of the Yin Snake.
But even so, burdened by his background, Zhao Siliang still found it difficult to get out in the capital. In desperation, he could only leave Bianliang and take advantage of the Jiangnan Rebellion to try his luck here. By chance, he was really caught by Zhu Mian, so he kept him by his side and served as a counselor.
And this time in the Battle of Changzhou, he was specially sent by Zhu Mian to serve as a supervisor in the Huainan Army. On the surface, he existed to make the Huainan army go all out to fight against the Fang La army, but in fact, he was responsible for another secret order, that is, to do everything possible to promote the defeat of the Shandong army here. And Zhu Mian specially advised him when he set off: "If you can find an opportunity to get rid of Sun Tu, who is under the jurisdiction of the Shandong Army, even if you have a great achievement, we will definitely protect you to the imperial court, even if you have some problems with your background, we will definitely let you enter the Privy Council as an official!" ”
It was precisely because of this entrustment and guarantee that Zhao Siliang was determined to be the enemy of the Shandong army, and even did not hesitate to reverse black and white, and sat back and watched those innocent soldiers suffer from the cold. And under his strong attitude and superb skills, Peng Yongzhen and his subordinates could only obediently obey their orders, which led to today's result.
However, Sun Tu's arrival today was a little unexpected to him, but after being surprised, Zhao Siliang quickly made a judgment, isn't this what he has been looking forward to, a great opportunity to get rid of Sun Tu? If he has been in the Shandong army, even if he can really harm him on the battlefield, he may not have an accident as the main general. But now, he entered the camp alone, and even the more than ten personal guards were blocked out of the tent, and with the joint siege of himself and several military masters, couldn't he be strangled?
With such a killing intent, Zhao Siliang came with a hidden weapon. And after finding an opportunity, he suddenly attacked, and quickly called other helpers, wanting to put Sun Tu to death in this moment.
"Bang ......" Sun Tu, who was hit in the leg in the chest, staggered back a few steps before he stabilized his body, making his appearance look quite embarrassed. Even if he has a good martial arts, under the siege of these seven or eight people, he still seems a little weak. Moreover, the most powerful Zhao Siliang also had a poisonous short knife in his hand that made him feel jealous, which made him more easily distracted, so that others could take advantage of it.
Just now, it was he who tried his best to dodge Zhao Siliang's stab like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, and hurriedly dodged the punch in the head, which made the middle door empty, revealing a flaw, and being kicked in the chest. The strength of this kick is not small, even Sun Tu withdrew five or six steps because of it, and even the corners of his mouth were faintly covered with a wisp of bright red, obviously hurting his viscera.
But this not only did not make him feel frightened, but aroused his fighting spirit, and with a roar, his body was stretched, and he actually rose vertically, like a tiger, and pounced on the general who was a little excited because of one leg success, but because of it, he closed his leg a little slowly, and his fists were like hammers, straight to his temples on both sides.
This momentum came very violently, and there was still some distance away, and the whining wind was already blowing in pain, but the smug look on the school's face was immediately replaced by horror, and he hurriedly jumped to the side with a short body.
At the same time, Zhao Siliang shouted in a low voice: "It's a trick, he wants to go out!" "Clever he has already gained insight into Sun Tu's true intentions in an instant, and it is obvious that he is no longer able to win when he is injured, so escaping from this big tent is the key. As soon as he comes out of the big tent, there will be personal soldiers to come to protect him, and even if the Huainan army is ordered to stop it, it will be noticed by the Shandong army on the other side, and then it may be a battle between the two armies.
Of course, Zhao Siliang could not let Sun Tu's plan succeed, while shouting a warning, he also showed his figure, and pounced on him with an arrow step, and the short blade in his hand crossed a strange arc, and went around Sun Tu's side and back, and rushed out, if Sun Tu was really determined to break out of the tent, his body would definitely be hit!
Sun Tu, who knew that the knife was poisonous, naturally couldn't gamble with his life, so this time he made his footsteps rushing towards the tent door pause, and his body moved to the side at the same time, and finally dodged this terrible blow again. It's just that in this way, the opportunity to get out that has just been created quickly disappeared, because the others have also understood, and in the shouting, the fists and feet have formed a defensive line, forcing Sun Tu to retreat to the side, away from the tent.
But just when they thought that everything was back on track, Sun Tu showed a sly smile, and his retreating figure suddenly accelerated, and he retreated like a sharp arrow, crashing straight towards the target behind him. And the person behind him is Peng Yongzhen, the commander of the Huainan Army.
At this moment, almost everyone screamed, Zhao Siliang screamed, and his body stabbed Sun Tu's chest like electricity, only then did he know that he had actually fallen for the other party's plan, and his original goal was not to get out of the account, but to Peng Yongzhen, who had been hiding in the corner!
As the chief general of the Huainan Army, although Peng Yongzhen also knows some martial arts, he is very shallow, and he is only slightly taller than ordinary soldiers, so he is naturally far from being able to compare with Sun Tu and them. So when he completely turned his face and made a move, he was escorted by several personal soldiers and hid in the corner, not daring to participate in it.
But as the battle rages, several of the guards have to get involved, so they are left alone in a corner. Originally, he was worried that he would be implicated, but now when he saw Sun Tu really coming towards him, he was even more frightened and screamed, but he could see clearly that Sun Tu's martial arts were much higher than his own, and he was afraid that he couldn't even dodge a move. The only thing he could do was to rush to the other side, hoping that someone would come up and block the other party for a while, so that he could get out of danger.
Those generals also understood this, so they tried their best to outflank them, wanting to protect their own generals. Their movements were not slow, and they actually rushed to the same time as Sun Tu retreated to Peng Yongzhen, and several fists and weapons had been directly beckoned, vowing to force Sun Tu to recruit and protect himself.
At the same time, Zhao Siliang in the rear had also been killed, and the short knife was whistling, slashing at Sun Tu's throat, making it easy for him to lose sight of one or the other and be hit again.
At this moment, Sun Tu's body suddenly shrank back and forth, and his hand quickly grabbed back, just grabbed Peng Yongzhen's wrist, and stabbed a short spear to the left with his body. The general was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly retreated, for fear of hurting his own commander, and the movements of the others were also stiff, and there was no longer the fierceness before.
In the final analysis, they are still Peng Yongzhen's subordinates, even if they have been ordered by Zhao Siliang before, they must help him deal with the hunting of Sun Tu, and they dare not really hurt Peng Yongzhen under such circumstances, and bear such a serious crime.
But Zhao Siliang didn't have such concerns, and when the others suddenly accepted it, the knife in his hand sped up, and it hit Sun Tu's throat like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it was only a few feet away from him.
At this time, Sun Tu couldn't even pull Peng Yongzhen over as a shield again, and after being caught by Sun Tu, he was already squeaky in fright, and struggled to retreat desperately. At this time, he had already burst out of his whole body strength, and his strength was not small, and Sun Tu really couldn't control him for a while.
But just when everyone thought that Sun Tu had nowhere to avoid, he moved again, and his other hand reached out like the wind, and he grabbed the general who had already received the recruit closest to him, but because of this, his steps were slightly frivolous, and he pulled it hard, and decisively pulled it to himself.
"Poof!" With a soft sound, the short blade cut right into the general's shoulder, making him snort and tremble, and then his face turned red again, obviously the poison on the knife had invaded his body.
And taking advantage of this opportunity, Sun Tu's hand holding Peng Yongzhen was quickly released, and then his five fingers became claws, and one was buckled on the right wrist of Zhao Siliang, who was suffocated by a knife that stabbed into the general's body.
"Actually, my target has always been you, and everything before was just a false trick!" At the same time as Sun Tu succeeded in one move, he had already gently revealed the truth, which immediately made everyone present feel stunned. Who would have thought that under the circumstances at that time, Sun Tu would be able to make such a decision in the face of danger, so as to solve the biggest threat in front of him.
But at this moment, Zhao Siliang, who should have been in pain and fear, showed a cruel smile on his face: "My name is Yin Snake, and the snake has more than one fang!" As soon as the words came out, his left hand, which had been useless, suddenly swept up, and another cold light went straight to Sun Tu's throat.
This is his last killer move!
