802 Fight to Fame
He glanced at the dozen or so subordinates lying on the ground, although they were injured, they were not fatal, Zhen Ming's hard work was very measured, and it did not hurt the vital point, but only made them temporarily incapacitated.
He raised his head and stared at Zhen Mingku: "If you can win against this king, let alone a woman, this king's throne can be given to you!" β
Zhen Ming smiled bitterly: "A word is a certainty." β
"You're all on the sidelines, and no one is allowed to meddle without my orders!"
"Yes!"
A hint of fierceness flashed in Du Fuwei's eyes, but the smile on his face instantly became gloomy, and a thick-backed knife weighing more than thirty catties was suddenly pulled out of the weapon rack on the side, and the person walked with the knife......
Boom -
A knife slashed at the place where Zhen Mingqiu was standing, and a large hole was blasted out of the deck, and sawdust was scattered everywhere.
The two figures, just on the building boat, you come and go, swords facing each other, attacking each other's fatal places, causing the women on the boat to scream and exclaim, a good building boat was smashed apart by the two.
Yue'er stood behind a few guards, holding her chest tightly with her hands, and every time Zhen Mingku was forced into a corner, she felt that her heart was almost in her throat.
She now somewhat understood why Zhen Mingku had started to exercise vigorously before the injury had healed, and it seemed that from that time on, he had already planned to do something with Du Fuwei.
But for what?
The wounds on Zhen Mingku's body have just healed, and although he has been exercising every day these days, his physique after the injury is far worse than before the injury. At this time, it was obviously too reluctant to challenge so many generals of the Jianghuai Army with one person.
The continuous fierce confrontation made the wounds on his body continue to increase. Duvoy, on the other hand, seemed to be at ease.
The surrounding guards all shouted loudly, "The king is mighty!" β
Du Fuwei waved the knife in his hand, extremely proud in his heart, and at the same time secretly relieved that Zhen was suffering from his knowledge.
Zhen Ming has spare strength in his hard moves, only defending and not attacking, but he shows the appearance of going all out, in fact, every attack and parry is just right, and it will not let others see the flaws. Only when he was in the bureau knew that this Zhen Niu deliberately showed that he was powerless in front of everyone, so as to establish his majesty as the king of the Jianghuai Army.
Just now, the image of Zhen Ming's brave martial arts with one enemy and ten has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of these Jianghuai army subordinates. At this time, Zhen Ming's hard work with him was unusually difficult, this is not to tell others that he Du Fuwei is more brave than this Zhen Niu.
He knew Zhen Ming's intentions. It is in this way to show his loyalty and his position. No more scruples, no longer take care of their own defense, do your best.
From the perspective of others, this is an extremely dangerous dragon fight, and Zhen is forced to parry and retreat.
Zhen Mingku finally showed his defeat and was forced to the stern of the boat, Du Fuwei shouted: "Although your martial arts are strong. But it's not the king's opponent yet! β
Dingββ
Sparks flew everywhere, and Zhen Ming barely parried Du Fuwei's full slash. The whole person was slashed backwards by the fierce knife force......
Bang -
Zhen Mingku's body smashed through the guardrail at the stern of the boat, and the whole person fell towards the river behind the boat.
Yue'er exclaimed, "Brother Zhen! At this moment, Du Fuwei suddenly rushed to the guardrail, grabbed Zhen Mingku's wrist that fell down with one hand, and lifted him violently, Zhen Mingku flew up in the air, did a 360-degree somersault in the air, and stood firmly on the deck.
He threw down the broken knife in his hand, knelt on one knee, and said loudly: "Zhen Niu is willing to bow down." β
Du Fuwei Longyan Dayue, laughed: "Although you are defeated, but this king is by no means a stingy person, your strength is the only one this king has seen in his life, the Jianghuai army is the period of thirst for talent, this king Poli promoted you to the left avant-garde general, commanding 10,000 Jianghuai army elites, he will conquer the city for this king, and he will not treat you badly!" β
Zhen Mingku thanked him loudly and said, "Thank you for the grace of King Spare!" β
Then he stood up and pointed to the women on the boat, "According to the agreement, the king's women dare not ask for it, but these pus-filled women still dare to accept it." β
Du Fuwei laughed and said strangely: "This king still thinks that you are just using this to recommend yourself to this king, but it turns out that you really want these women?" β
Zhen Ming smiled bitterly and said: "People who practice martial arts, their blood is strong, and it is common for seven women to be in one night, and they don't hide it from the king, and their subordinates' interest in women only lasts for three days at most, and after three days, it will be boring, so women are more and more for their subordinates, but women are used to hurt, like the thing that abused women just now for fun, and the subordinates are to see one and kill another." β
Du Fuwei laughed, giving birth to the feeling of meeting a confidant, "Yes! It is also time to let them learn a long lesson, and they patronize playing with women every day and waste their martial arts. β
He turned his head to look at Yue'er, who had an angry face and round eyes, and said with a smile: "When did Concubine Yue have such an interesting brother, and she didn't tell this king earlier, now it's really too late to see each other." β
At this time, the ship had already arrived at the dock of Jiangdu City.
Zhen Mingku didn't look at Yue'er at this time, walked to the pile of more than a dozen disheveled young and beautiful women, hugged them left and right, kissed their faces one by one, and said with a smile: "A few beauties, you belong to General Ben from now on, rest assured, although General Ben is extremely lustful, he is by no means a pervert who destroys flowers with spicy hands, and will not let the beauties suffer a little bit of flesh and skin." β
More than a dozen women were not surprised, and they all gathered up, scrambling to wrap their arms around him, and said coquettishly: "The slave and maid have thanked the general." β
Du Fuwei laughed, Jiangdu is as beautiful as a cloud, there are only a dozen concubines in Yang Guang Palace, how many do he wants, if he can exchange this for a fierce general, even if Zhen Ming asks for a thousand women, he can also collect them.
He glanced at her meaningfully, and then looked at Zhen Mingku, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his smile, hugged the waist of Yue'er, who was a little stunned, and got off the boat.

After the First Battle of Lou Chuan, Zhen Mingku became the left avant-garde general of the Jianghuai Army, commanding 5,000 soldiers and horses.
Although he is the brother of Concubine Yue, no one dares to regard him as a soft-footed shrimp who relies on nepotism.
The battle with the Jianghuai King on the ship not only made the prestige of the Jianghuai King resounding throughout the Jianghuai Army, but also made the name Zhen Niu gradually known to the soldiers and generals of the Jianghuai Army, especially those generals who were cut down by Zhen Mingku, who held grudges one by one and tried to get rid of the thorn in Zhen Mingku's side.
Soon after the change of ownership of Jiangdu City, the people in the city were panicked, sometimes thieves robbed by fire, and stole into the houses at night to steal and rob and commit adultery, making the city rumors and trees all soldiers, so that Du Fuwei was greatly annoyed, but a group of soldiers under his command were some unruly bandit leaders, originally relied on this background, Du Fuwei used this method to connive at his subordinates to win the hearts of the people and strengthen the strength, now half of the country has been decided, when seeking stability, this way has become an obstacle to disturbing the people and disturbing the people.
Just when Du Fuwei repeatedly forbade and had a headache for this, Zhen Ming volunteered to make a military order to ensure that within a month, these turmoil in Jiangdu City would be put an end to, and the only condition was to let him freely recruit 1,000 soldiers.
Du Fuwei wanted to test whether he had any talent, and secondly, he felt that a thousand soldiers was really a threat to the Jianghuai army with nearly 100,000 troops, so he readily agreed, appointed him as the supervisor of Jiangdu City, responsible for the security of Jiangdu City, and allocated him 30,000 taels of silver to recruit personal soldiers.
Zhen Ming received the military order, and the first thing he did after arriving in Jiangdu City was to use the 30,000 taels of silver used to recruit soldiers to buy an idyllic mansion in the east of Jiangdu City near the river, and recruit customers.
More than a dozen stunning women who earned from Du Fuwei's ship were arranged by him to practice singing and dancing in the mansion.
Every day, I drank and chanted poems with the doormen, enjoyed singing and dancing, and in this way, about ten days after the agreed period, Jiangdu City was still rampant with thieves.
A few days later, a notice was posted at the door of the General's Palace, saying, "After three days, conduct a city-wide household survey, and those who dare to conceal private forces, hire black households, and evade taxes will be beheaded and their property confiscated, and those who report to the Supervision Department in advance will be punished lightly and fined to atone for their crimes." β
As soon as this announcement came out, the general's mansion was full of guests, and the officials and wealthy families of Jiangdu City, large and small, in order to have a good relationship with the new Jiangdu Inspectors, gave gifts and money, and they, the Jiangdu City officials, were not innocent or innocent, and the rules of officialdom were better than anyone else, the big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish ate the shrimp, and the new Inspector posted such a notice, making it clear that he was soliciting bribes from them, the local tyrants and gentry.
They are not afraid of insatiable corrupt officials, but they are most afraid of the old stubbornness who are upright, selfless, and out of place, and they are more welcome to officials who can be settled by spending money.
In the space of three days, the newly arrived inspector General Zhen Niu had looted 100,000 taels of people's fat and ointment, and those who gave gifts were all listed in a series of lists, arranged according to the size of the amount.
There are hundreds of large and small gentry and local tyrants, and the scale of the family's land, households, and hired tenants is also roughly numbered.
In the next few days, Zhen Mingku's people posted another notice, recruiting a hundred literate talents under the age of twenty, and the children of famous nobles and scholars were the palace guards of the left avant-garde general.
There were only a few applicants, and a supplementary note was later posted, "These 200 people will become the squad leader for rectifying public order in Jiangdu, train to become squad leaders, command nine people, and perform the duties of supervising the army and city management, responsible for inspecting all areas of Jiangdu, and searching the families and residences of relevant illegal and hidden criminals." β
As soon as this proclamation came out, hundreds of outstanding children who had been sent by the wealthy clans in Jiangdu came to apply.
Zhen Mingku personally selected the children who are healthy, positive and optimistic, and have a sense of family honor, thanks to this troubled era, these reading children usually study martial arts in addition to reading and writing, and their bodies are not too weak, and they can become a civil and military cadre with a little training.
