Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 368 Wu Song: Brother Gou, we still need to train! [1st Update]

"Drink—"

Taking advantage of the momentum of his horse's charge, Gou Zheng roared and raised the pressure of the horse against the foot to the extreme!
In order to achieve a surprising victory, Gou Zheng decided to launch a sneak attack on Wu Song.

Having assessed the attack range, Gou Zheng suddenly stood up, wielding his broadsword and slashing down at Wu Song from above!

Gou Zheng, now standing up, appeared incredibly tall, gripping the end of the sword hilt with both hands to allow the sword to strike even further!

The key is to go against the grain; Gou Zheng has brought forward your predicted attack time and attack distance!

This strike was swift, ruthless, and precise, aimed at Wu Song's head at a forty-five-degree angle!

"hiss--"

Everyone couldn't help but gasp:
Are you crazy? You call this showing mercy?
Liu Yun and Zhang Wei's expressions changed drastically: If you fucking kill Wu Song, we'll all have to pack our buckets and run away!

When everyone's hearts were in their throats, Wu Song remained unmoved, only squinting his eyes to judge where the blade would land.

If Gou Zheng really wants to kill him, then there's nothing more to say.

Your blade is sharp, but mine is no less sharp!

However, Wu Song saw through it at a glance: Gou Zheng's knife was angled, and he wanted to cut off the long hair on the top of his head!

Perhaps Gou Zheng didn't intend to hurt anyone, but if Wu Song had his head shaved by Gou Zheng, how would he ever face anyone again?
That would be worse than killing him!
snort!
Wu Song's gaze turned cold!
Gou Zheng pressed his upper body against the horse's head, his large sword, gripped tightly in both hands, already brought down...

At this critical moment, Wu Song calmly stepped to the left with his left foot and turned around!
With a casual gesture, Gou Zheng's warhorse dodged the powerful, mountain-splitting strike and sped past like the wind!
At that moment, Wu Song used the momentum of the spin to swat back and slash hard at the warhorse's knee joint!

"Crack!"

One of the warhorse's legs flew off!

"Xilulu——"

The warhorse was already somewhat unbalanced due to Gou Zheng's forward lean as he stood up, not to mention the broken leg.
With a mournful cry, the warhorse involuntarily tilted to one side and crashed to the ground, throwing Gou Zheng off as well!
Gou Zheng hurriedly lowered his head in mid-air, landing on his back and then performing a forward roll!

"Shh-"

Just as Gou Zheng was halfway through his forward roll, a flash of light appeared and struck his helmet!
"when!"

Gou Zheng's helmet was slashed off by the blade, and he was rolling around. When he finally got up, his hair was disheveled!
"Shh-"

Scrambling to his feet, before Gou Zheng could even feel ashamed and angry, a flash of light appeared, and the blade was upon him again!

Gou Zheng was stunned, his mouth went dry, and in his panic, his whole body stiffened, unable to dodge!
"Crack!"

The blade easily sliced ​​through a part of his body, and then Gou Zheng felt a lightness in his body!
"Wow--"

Gou Zheng's half of his armor fell down, dangling diagonally over his stomach...

It turned out that Wu Song's knife had precisely cut through the leather straps securing his armor to his shoulder!

“DUANG——”

The blade struck the trunk of a large tree behind Gou Zheng, its hilt still trembling violently!
Gou Zheng subconsciously patted his chest repeatedly, only breathing a sigh of relief after confirming that he was not injured.

Even so, that lightning-fast flash of light still sent a chill down Gou Zheng's spine!
"Snapped!"

Wu Song kicked off Gou Zheng's helmet, gripping only his right-hand knife, and approached Gou Zheng step by step.

After drawing his sword, Wu Song exuded an aura of power, his steady steps resembling a magnificent tiger surveying his territory!

With the stride of a dragon and the gait of a tiger, his aura is boundless!
Don't come over here!

Although Gou Zheng still had a knife in his hand and armor on his body, he was still intimidated by Wu Song and retreated repeatedly!

Wu Song stared intently at him, making him forget that this was a friendly sparring match, and also forget that it was a fight to the death...

What hope is there for a pitiful, helpless, and hungry rabbit to fight to the death when it falls into the claws of a ferocious tiger?
"Crash la la la..."

The sound of metal clashing came from Gou Zheng's body; it turned out that the armor plates on his drooping armor were shaking violently!

Gou Zheng was terrified by Wu Song, his whole body trembling, causing his armor to shake violently as if he were dancing a hula...

"Ah."

Wu Song's lips curled into a mocking smile, which Gou Zheng saw as a devilish smile!
Gou Zheng froze, watching helplessly as Wu Song walked up to him...

Pass by.

Since Gou Zheng only wanted to cut off Wu Song's long hair, Wu Song helped him remove half of his armor.

Wu Song walked to the big tree, drew his sword, and then walked back, patting the stunned Gou Zheng on the shoulder:

"Brother Gou, you still need to practice."

Gou Zheng: (_)
"Swords and blades have no eyes."

Wu Song sheathed his sword and said apologetically:
"It was my fault for accidentally damaging your mount."

"Go to the horse farm and pick out a good one."

Gou Zheng: "No, no..."

"All right."

Wu Song ignored Gou Zheng and turned to wave at the huge crowd of onlookers:
"The sparring is over, everyone can go home now."

Only after sheathing his sword did Wu Song retract his terrifying murderous aura, and the onlookers breathed a sigh of relief.

Watching Wu Song fight was terrifying; I always felt like he might accidentally chop himself up at any moment...

“Extravagant! Utterly extravagant!”

"I told you long ago that Brother Wu Song was invincible in foot combat, but you didn't believe me!"

"Who doesn't believe it? Who doesn't believe it?"

"This is infantry against cavalry! Brother Wu Song truly is the king of infantry! Without a master like him, who can rival him!" "Like a demon lord descended from heaven, he is truly a god of war on earth!"

The onlookers praised him unanimously, collectively transforming into a group of people who lauded Wu Song, showering him with compliments!

Good guy!
Liu Yun and Zhang Wei exchanged a glance, both seeing disbelief in each other's eyes!

In the original novel, Liu Yun's record was that he fought Guan Sheng to a draw after thirty rounds, and Zhang Wei fought Qin Ming to a draw after thirty rounds.

Gou Zheng was killed by Zhu Tong with a single spear thrust after thirty rounds.

Liu Yun and Zhang Wei were both stronger than Gou Zheng, and they also knew that Gou Zheng's martial arts skills were the weakest among the "Eight Generals of the South".

But no matter how weak Gou Zheng is, he can still hold his own against Liu Yun and Zhang Wei for a few moves, so he shouldn't be defeated in one move!

Wu Song, however, defeated Gou Zheng in an instant, and it was even more so that infantry could defeat cavalry!
So fierce!
Liu Yun and Zhang Wei couldn't help but feel awe for Wu Song, and their dislike for Gou Zheng grew even stronger.

It should be noted that most people view the "Eight Generals of the South" as a single entity, of the same caliber.

If Gou Zheng was defeated by Wu Song in an instant, wouldn't people think that the two of them were also at that level?

They were already looked down upon, and now they're flattened into nothingness!

That's fine, but Gou Zheng was so fierce when he drew his knife just now. Could Wu Song have thought they were planning a rebellion?
Liu Yun and Zhang Wei looked at each other and shook their heads with bitter smiles. Gou Zheng was a hopeless person; they would be dragged down by him sooner or later!
Not to mention them, even Han Shizhong was convinced; "Po Han Wu" had never easily submitted to anyone.

But since joining Liangshan, Han Shizhong has gained many admirers: Cai Fu, Lu Junyi, Wu Song...

"Huff huff huff..."

Gou Zheng was panting heavily, like a fish that had just been brought ashore:

Is this the "Heaven-Shaking Lion"?

terrible!

Gou Zheng picked up his helmet with a trembling heart, only to find a deep knife mark left on it!
If it weren't for the helmet blocking the blow, his head would have been split open!
No, it should be said that if Wu Song hadn't cut off his helmet, his head would have been split open!
If Wu Song hadn't just removed his armor, and instead aimed the blade at his head for the second blow, he would have split his skull open again!
He narrowly escaped death twice!

They really spared my life...

Gou Zheng tried to slip away cautiously, but his calves throbbed, and he staggered as he walked.

In addition, with each step he took, the plates of his armor, which sagged down to his stomach, rustled loudly...

Wherever Gou Zheng went, the onlookers who were laughing and joking fell silent, pretending nothing had happened.

After Gou Zheng left, the onlookers started laughing and joking again, which infuriated Gou Zheng.

Yet they dared not speak out against their anger...

After all, he himself wanted to challenge Wu Song, and it had to be in the square, with cavalry against infantry, and he had to make the first move...

What right does he have to be angry?
Gou Zheng had no choice but to slink away with his tail between his legs, and he wasn't seen eating at either the main or secondary canteen that night.

The next morning.

Lu Junyi, Wu Song, and Han Shizhong slept side by side. They had just woken up when Liu Yun and Zhang Wei arrived.

"My three brothers, something terrible has happened!"

Liu Yun said with a miserable expression, "This morning we went to Gou Zheng's house to look for him, but we found he wasn't home..."

Zhang Wei also said with a miserable expression, "We also found out that he didn't sleep at home last night..."

Liu Yun said cautiously, "Gou Zheng is petty; we're worried he might get angry out of spite..."

"My three older brothers!"

Just then, the three Nguyen brothers arrived in a rage.

Ruan Xiaoqi was the most irritable: "One of our brothers in the online army died!"
"We found an empty boat first, then we discovered his floating body!"

Ruan Xiaoer gritted his teeth and said, "This brother was originally on the mountain!"
"Someone must have left the mountain last night, forcing him to leave the boat!"

Ruan Xiaowu punched his palm: "That bastard left, but how could he kill our brothers!"

Ruan Xiaoqi said fiercely, "Master, if I run into him, I'll definitely give him three cuts and six holes first!"

Lu Junyi, Wu Song, and Han Shizhong all turned to look at Liu Yun and Zhang Wei.

Liu Yun, both shocked and furious, cursed, "How could Gou Zheng, that shameless scoundrel, do such an unjust thing!"

Without hesitation, Zhang Wei drew his sword and cut off a piece of his robe: "Zhang Wei disdains to associate with such a despicable person!"

Liu Yun quickly drew his sword and cut off a piece of his robe: "Liu Yun also disdains to associate with such a petty person!"
"If I run into that scoundrel Gou Zheng, I will definitely arrest him and bring him to see you, sir, so that you can judge his crime!"

"This is none of your business."

"I'll send men to capture him first, and then issue a kill order when my brother returns."

Lu Junyi reassured Liu Yun and Zhang Wei with kind words, since Liu Yun and Zhang Wei had expressed their support immediately and could be trusted.

……

Longtou City.

Gou Zheng was exhausted, sleepy, hungry, and thirsty when he got here.

His horse had its leg cut off by Wu Song, so he had to steal a dreadful horse on the road and ride it.

However, riding this horse was too unpleasant, so Gou Zheng decided to buy a good horse first before going to serve the imperial court.

He asked a passerby and found out there was an underground horse market, so he came over to see if he could snag a bargain.

Upon reaching the Sancha River Port, Gou Zheng spotted a beautiful woman washing her horse in the river; her calves were so white they seemed to glow…
