I Don't Know Martial Art Chapter 21

Chapter 21 - The Battle of the City Gate

When Qin Feng's group arrived at the north gate of Silver City, they happened to meet up with a horse-drawn carriage from the northeast. They also chose to enter through the north gate, and the two groups happened to cross paths with each other about a mile away from the city gate.

This was a rather large caravan of forty to fifty carriages. Chests of varying sizes and sizes were piled up to a height of more than three storeys.

The last carriages were covered with a fine layer of soft oil paper and brocade. Through a few cracks, one could see the exquisite silk fabric inside. It was bright, beautiful, and had exquisite patterns. It was obviously expensive top Jiang-Nan silk.

There were over a hundred guards on both sides of the caravan, and they were all riding a blue haired BMW, holding sharp weapons in their hands. There were also over a hundred guards on both sides of the caravan, and they were riding a blue haired BMW, holding sharp weapons, and they were holding sharp weapons.

Judging from the size and the formation of the carriages, one could tell that the identity of the people in the palanquin were definitely not ordinary. Although it was not comparable to the vast and mighty royal carriage of the Crown Prince and the Seventh Princess, it still looked extremely powerful.

On the other hand, Xiang Yun's caravan only had a dozen or so carriages, only a little more than ten people to watch over them. Of the maids and servants that accompanied them, besides Lin Wan'er, the only one left behind was the carriage.

If this was any other year, Xiang Yun would naturally not be so low-key. His Qin Feng City could be said to be earning tens of thousands of gold every day, and it would be as easy as flipping his hand to prepare a massive fleet of carriages. However, Xiang Yun was drunk this time, and the carriages were arranged by Mr Liu and Housekeeper Zhang.

When Old Liang saw that the two carriages were about to reach the north gate, he had no time to waste and continued to drive the carriage forward. The guards on both sides only glanced at the carriages for a moment before turning a blind eye to the carriages and advancing onward.

The convoy beside them had long noticed the convoy that was travelling together with them. However, when they saw how shabby the convoy was, they did not place them in their eyes.

It was because the size of the carriages generally signified the identity of the people who came, just like the person in their big palanquin. He was the eldest son of the current Grand Guard of the Southern Abyss County, and he brought a special gift to congratulate Wang Shou who was standing next to him.

On the other hand, not only were there not many people in the caravan, even the birthday present was shabby. On the large carriage, there was only a mahogany case that could fit a baby child, and even if it contained gold and jewels, it was still less than the amount of gold and silver on the carriage they were in.

Therefore, this convoy led by the Supreme Protector of the Southern Abyss Country naturally viewed Heir Xiang's convoy as a broken clan from the northwest. They had accumulated a fortune with great difficulty, so they came to Silver City to curry favor with the king, hoping that they would be able to obtain some benefits.

Originally, they thought that after seeing the grandeur of their fleet of carriages, even if they didn't run away, they should still stop the carriages and let them go first.

To everyone's surprise, the shabby caravan didn't stop. People didn't squint and the caravan continued to move forward slowly as if they didn't see them.

Just as the two carriages were about to collide with each other, a group of people had finally lined up ten miles away from Silver City. If that happened, the Eldest Young Master would blame them for what they had done.

Immediately, the two deputy generals leading the team in front of the palanquin casually called over two soldiers and said to them, "The two of you go stop that convoy and let them wait first. Once we enter the city, we'll let them enter the city."

"Yes sir!"

The two soldiers immediately accepted the order and reined their horses. They immediately urged their horses to gallop to the front of Xiang Yun's group. Separated by a distance of several zhang, they stopped the convoy from advancing!

The two soldiers stood in front with tacit understanding, looking up into the sky. They did not want the people in the caravan in front of them, and only waited for them to send people. They eagerly went up and asked: "Two sirs, why are you blocking the way, do we not have any neglect?"

When that time came, the two of them would sternly scold them again, making these fellows obediently wait on the spot. Afterwards, they would offer them a hundred taels of silvers in fear and trepidation, buying them wine and eating meat.

However, things did not go as they had imagined, because to them, the sounds of the horses' hooves and the rolling of the wheels were still echoing in the distance. Moreover, they were getting closer and closer to each other, as if the other did not intend to stop.

The two finally could not hold it in and turned to look ahead. When the horse carriage almost reached them, the two soldiers were shocked. They reined their horses back and took a few steps back. Only then did they not get hit by the other horse carriage!

This time, the two soldiers were completely infuriated. Staring at the carefree old man sitting on the opposite carriage, a tall soldier pulled out a horsewhip and pointed it at the empty space in front of him.

"You old servant, you sure have a lot of guts. Didn't you see your two grandpas were here, how dare you move forward! Stop immediately for laozi! "

Faced with this soldier's shout, Old Liang, who was standing opposite him, did not even raise his eyelids. The horsewhip in his hand still swayed slightly in the air as he held the wine gourd in one hand and drank the wine, allowing the horse carriage to continue moving forward.

Old Liang's reaction caused the two soldiers to be stunned. One of the soldiers questioned, "Could this old man be blind? He couldn't see us blocking the path in front of him."

Hearing this, the other soldier shook his head in disdain, "You brat, are you a pig? If this old thing was really blind, who would dare to let him drive the carriage forward, then wouldn't that be walking to the edge of the cliff? I think this old thing is most likely deaf and can't hear us!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" At this moment, the two of them had reached an agreement.

However, just when the two of them came to the conclusion that the old man in the carriage was deaf, the old man turned his head and said to the people in the carriage, "Master, two retards have arrived. Where are they going to go? What do you think we should do?"

"You take care of it yourself. I'm showing Wan-Er my palm." A sentence drifted out from the sedan.

"Okay." Old Liang replied and then without another word, turned around and continued to drive the carriage forward.

The voice of Old Liang who was speaking earlier was naturally heard by the two soldiers. The two of them were stunned for a moment before revealing an expression of shock, which then turned into a furious expression!

"Fuck, this old guy is scolding us. This old guy saw us even when he heard us talking. He's f * cking pretending to be stupid!"

The two soldiers raised their long whips in anger, as if they had just woken up from a dream, and lashed them towards the dark horse that was still walking at a leisurely pace. They wanted to whip this beast until it ran away in fear, and shake the owner of the palanquin and this damned old servant to pieces.

However, just as the two of them were about to raise their whips to lash the black horse, the old leader on the carriage said to the horse in front of them: "Kick them!"

When the black horse heard this, it unexpectedly let out a hiss and stood motionless on its hind hooves. Its two front hooves leaped high into the air and like two black wooden stakes, its hooves smashed onto the chests of the two soldiers with lightning speed!

"BOOM!"

The two of them didn't even have time to let out a scream before they were sent flying. They landed heavily on the ground more than ten meters away, the hard armor on their chest deformed from the kick.

"Hehe, you did well." When Old Liang saw this scene, he gently patted his horse's butt and praised with a mischievous smile.

Hearing this, the dark horse's head shook slightly, and it raised its head and let out a hiss, obviously pleased with itself. That high-pitched hiss scared the two Cyan Mane Horses who had lost control of their owner, and they both let out a low cry.

"Old Liang, your horse taming skills aren't bad!" Although Xiang Yun was in his palanquin, he had seen the scene just now. He was rather interested in the fact that Old Liang's dark horse was actually so intelligent.

"Hehe, of course. We, Old Liang, have been raising horses for decades. If we didn't have this little ability, how would we dare to be under the Crown Prince's command?" Old Liang licked his lips without a trace of modesty.

As for the two frightened warhorses, the two deputy Generals and the numerous soldiers had long since witnessed the scene of the two soldiers being sent flying.

As they were shocked and furious, the two deputy Generals were also a bit bewildered in their hearts. Who exactly was this convoy? It was one thing if they did not move in the face of their own convoy, but they still dared to attack and injure people first.

The two deputy Generals were experienced and knew how valiant the people were in the Northwest. However, they couldn't be so intrepid as to not understand the situation. Could it be that the owner of this train had some background?

They first sent some men to save the two soldiers, and then one of the deputy generals jumped off his horse. He came to the door of his master's palanquin and reported: "Young master, there is a train on the left side that is travelling alongside us. Your subordinate does not dare to make decisions."

After the deputy general finished speaking, there was no reply from the palanquin. The latter was puzzled and was about to repeat herself, when suddenly, a burst of feminine cries came from the palanquin, followed by a wave of suppressed, heavy panting.

He immediately realized that his young master was busy with this matter in the palanquin, but he was not surprised. Along the way, his young master had already received seven to eight women into the palanquin, and quite a few of them were deceived by his threats.

As slaves, they naturally didn't dare to say anything and could only allow it to happen.

The deputy general waited outside the palanquin for a moment. Then, he heard an impatient response from inside: "Do you still need to inform me about such a small matter? Just stop that train and have them obediently wait on the side."

When the deputy general heard this, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Err, just now, your subordinate had already sent two soldiers to obstruct them, but the other party ignored them and even attacked and injured them!"

"What!"

The voices of the people in the palanquin suddenly became a bit louder, and soon after, they heard a rustling sound from inside. Following the sound of footsteps, the palanquin's curtain was opened by a few maids in untidy clothing.

The next moment, a handsome young man wearing a black fox fur coat with a golden crown on his head walked out of the palanquin.

"Where is the convoy?"

The deputy general quickly gave him directions. The young man looked in the direction the deputy general was pointing at and immediately saw a group of people slowly moving forward with very few people.

When the young man saw the caravan, he was stunned for a moment before saying in disbelief, "Where did I think this great character came from? I didn't think that they would dare to touch my men in such a broken caravan."

The young man's expression was arrogant and insufferably arrogant. All of this was due to his status as the eldest son of the great protector of the Southern Abyss Country, Liu Wende, who was ranked high up among the sixteen counties in the north.

Liu Yuan could be said to be like the wind and rain in the Southern Abyss Country. He was simply the crown prince of the Southern Abyss Country. He was domineering and it was even easier for him to bully men and women.

After being asked by his father, Liu Yuan went to Silver City to congratulate Wang Shou. Although his father had told him everything, he had to restrain his temper and not act recklessly along the way. He had to be meek and forgiving in his actions and not become enemies with the Northwest forces.

Liu Yuan only barely complied with his father's words a day or two after he left the county. On the third day, he passed by a small village and saw a girl who was picking tea in the village. She looked pretty and had tender skin.

The latter was finally unable to suppress the restlessness in her heart, which she had suppressed for a few days. She had actually ordered someone to forcefully abduct this tea woman and force her onto the palanquin, tarnishing the latter's innocence.

He had harassed many commoners along the way. Now that he had arrived at Silver City, he was thinking about whether he should restrain himself, but who would have thought that he would run into such an unsightly team.

Liu Yuan thought to himself:

It would be great if he could clean up the caravan and enter Silver City. He had long since instructed his father not to go against the power of the Northwest, and that too after that, he would be out in the open!

The latter commanded the convoy to surround Xiang Yun's convoy!
