In mid-February of the 10th year of Daye, Yangzhou City.
At this time, the "King Conferment Conference" that attracts worldwide attention is about to be held. The prosperous and noisy city of Yangzhou is filled with people and heroes.
This "King Conferment Conference" was held under the auspices of the imperial court. However, the participants from the imperial court and the anti-army only accounted for less than half of the number, and the rest were all figures in the world.
In the arena, this "King Conferment Conference" is also called the "Heroes Conference". Regardless of whether the court will actually confer the title of "king" on the winner, the winner will still be recognized as the king, and the general will still be recognized as the king.
He is the number one military general in the world.
The host of the "King Conference", patron king Yang Lin, has arrived in Yangzhou City for nearly a month. He is not just sitting in town, but has also carried out small-scale renovation, repair and construction of Yangzhou City.
The biggest change is the large square in the central area of Yangzhou City.
In the central area, which was originally lined with shops, many shops and mansions were moved and transformed into a vast square with a radius of several miles.
In the middle of the square, there is a large dark arena with a height of more than ten meters and a length and width of about a hundred meters. It is completely made of black granite as hard as pig iron. It is strong, majestic and grand.
Surrounding the square is a ten-foot-high and several-foot-thick wall. It is still made entirely of black granite and is completely at the middle city level. It can accommodate soldiers patrolling on guard and even horses riding on it.
According to the court, the purpose of building the wall was mainly to maintain the order of the meeting to avoid chaos and cause controversy, but not many people opposed it.
After all, those who have the courage and strength to participate, do not care about this mere ten-foot wall, and dare not even enter this wall, what qualifications do they have to participate in the conference?
In addition, Yang Lin also built sentry towers in the streets and alleys of Yangzhou City to prevent chaos.
What is even more alarming and attention-grabbing is that the four gates of Yangzhou City were originally ordinary push-open iron gates. Yang Lin replaced them with solid iron gates worth ten thousand kilograms on the grounds of dilapidation and disrepair, and used high technology to
The difficult windlass is a switch method.
Finally, of course, the troops stationed in the city and patrolled day and night were not many, but they did bring together heroes and crowds of people, and the atmosphere in Yangzhou City was overwhelming. There was no turmoil, and it was quite peaceful and comfortable.
All of the above, those who are interested have their opinions, but it cannot stop the enthusiasm of the participants. The participants still participate, and not many people are timid because of this. At least the influential figures from all parties have not announced their withdrawal due to the tricks of the backer king Yang Lin.
Deeds.
…
On this day, there were only three days left before the "King Conferment Conference" was held.
The influential figures or overlords who were famous all over the world or in one place arrived in Yangzhou City one after another.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The more people there are, the bigger the rivers and lakes will be and the more chaotic the atmosphere will be.
As more and more geniuses, strong men, influential figures, etc. gather together, no one is convinced by anyone, and they can't help but compete with each other. Naturally, some people will gradually emerge.
However, under the watchful eye of the patron king Yang Lin and many Sui soldiers and powerful men of the imperial court, no big fights or chaos broke out. This also reflects the power and reputation of the patron king, the head of the Nine Heavenly Kings.
"It's open! It's open!"
"The jade-faced silver spear versus the devil incarnate..."
"Luo Cheng, one of the Thirteen Heroes with a Jade Face and Silver Spear, has been famous for a long time. With the silver spear in his hand, he has never been defeated. He once fought against King Xie Wu without deciding the outcome..."
"The Demon King Cheng Zhijie (Cheng Yaojin), General Wagang, is born with divine power and extraordinary talent. With three axes, he defeated the most powerful general under the throne of the Evil Martial King... the Imperial Lion of the Ancient Barbarian Imperial Clan..."
"The jade-faced silver gun pays three for one; the devil incarnation pays one for one! If you want to bet, hurry up..."
…
The inns and restaurants around the venue of the "King Conferment Conference" were full all day long, and the area was very popular.
At this time, a few miles east of the conference venue, there was a crowd of people. The streets were filled with people's voices and all kinds of discussions.
In the open space of more than 100 meters in the middle of the crowd...
Luo Cheng, who has a face like a crown jade and is extraordinarily handsome, holds a silver gun, and his eyes are like lightning. He has excellent appearance, temperament, and momentum. The sharp blade of the gun is pointed straight ahead, and he is as powerful as a cheetah.
In front of Luo Cheng, there is the rugged and majestic demon king Cheng Yaojin with a full beard, holding a Xuanhua axe, and he is as powerful as a tiger.
This time Luo Cheng represents Luo Yi, the overlord of Yanyun. He is accompanied by Luo Yi's generals and powerful men, including Luo Cheng's half-brother Luo Song. To a certain extent, Luo Cheng also represents the imperial court.
camp, after all, Luo Yi is still the tiger general of the Sui Empire and the frontier official of the Sui Dynasty.
Cheng Yaojin naturally represents the Wagang Army, which is now at its peak. The two parties ate in the restaurant, got to know the heroes of the world, and heard information from all sides.
Luo Cheng, who came here just for the sake of fame, couldn't stand the boasting of the Wagang army, so he directly challenged the demon king Cheng Yaojin. The Wagang army, which had won many championships, naturally could not be timid. The verbal conflict and the passionate battle
He is competitive and eager to win, so the situation in front of him arises.
The Taiyuan Wang family, one of the Five Surnames and Seven Families, was famous for its scholars and wealth, so it was natural that she would not miss the "King Conferment Conference". After hearing about the incident, she rushed there as soon as possible and started gambling.
Obviously, the Taiyuan Wang family is more optimistic about the demon king Cheng Yaojin. This is also the view of the vast majority of the audience present. After all, Cheng Yaojin's victory was just a few days ago and his reputation has risen.
"What do you think?"
At the railing on the third floor of the restaurant on the left side of the competition venue, the heroes of Wagang paid attention. Dong Gong Zhai Rang asked everyone expectantly.
Everyone was silent. Although Luo Cheng was young, he had long been famous and was one of the Thirteen Heroes. Cheng Yaojin was much older than Luo Cheng, but he had always been unknown and had just risen to prominence.
"It's hard to say..." Wagang Military Advisor Jia Xiong responded with a wry smile.
Li Mi responded angrily: "If King Wuxie breaks it, he will win if he knows his integrity. Now... I'm afraid the jade-faced silver gun has a higher chance of winning. After all, the Luo family's spear favors skills. As long as the jade-faced silver gun has some scheming, it can...
…”
Before he finished speaking, everyone knew what he meant and couldn't help but smile and shake their heads.
Don't look at the demon king Cheng Yaojin. He is now unparalleled in power. His reputation for winning the championship is higher than that of Dong Gong Zhai Rang, the invincible general and other powerful people in the world.
), nor is it an opponent.
However, others are not clear about it, but the heroes of Wagang know very well that Cheng Yaojin only knows three axes, and only three axes. If the three axes cannot defeat the opponent, Cheng Yaojin can only sit back and wait for death!
The incident involving King Xie Wu caused the heroes of Wagang to have a grudge against Li Mi, but the resourceful Li Mi resolved it.
Although he was also a military advisor, Jia Xiong couldn't stand Li Mi. He couldn't help asking angrily: "Then if you didn't tell me earlier, how big the impact would be if Zhijie was defeated...what's your intention?"
"If a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it! Who can predict the gains and losses? This might not be an opportunity for us..."
Li Mi responded with a generous smile without caring, and then added emotionally: "For example... a gambling game! What we lack most now is wealth and resources!" (To be continued.)
