The first thousand six hundred and eighty chapters
Xu Que, the emperor of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, was known throughout the six countries for his reputation as a cowardly emperor in his early years.
Later, he suddenly woke up and began to purge the government, carried out reforms in the country, and made many decisions that benefited the country and the people. He was also called a wise king.
But no matter what he did, the world's impression of him always remained at the level of grand plans.
What, you asked the emperor if he knew martial arts?
Don't be ridiculous, if the emperor knew martial arts, why would he need to climb over the wall to get out of the palace?
It doesn’t exist!
However, Xu Que's shocking strike today shocked everyone.
The emperor actually knows martial arts?
Also killed Qin’s general Pan Meng?
Seeing Xu Que kill the enemy general with one blow, the soldiers on the city wall suddenly cheered in unison.
"mighty!"
"Promote the prestige of the Eastern Tang Dynasty!"
"Good kill!"
Xu Que also stayed where he was, waiting for the three thousand soldiers behind him to catch up, and waved at the same time.
Even though they were a little far away, he could still feel the enthusiasm of the soldiers.
"Haha, cheer for me! Brothers, have you seen the corpses of those who offended me in the Eastern Tang Dynasty?"
As he spoke, he waved his long knife and made a sound of wind.
…
Not far away, Hu Zhengtang felt his throat was a little dry: "Did you... just see it?"
The lieutenant's throat rolled and he murmured: "I saw it... Your Majesty slashed Pan fiercely with his sword."
"Am I not dazzled?"
"Report to General, you are not dazzled..."
The few people who rushed to the rescue were all stunned.
When did the emperor have such ability?
This is so fucking magical!
Suddenly, someone on the side said sharply: "Hey, the one in the emperor's hand seems to be the legendary dragon-slaying knife in the palace treasure house."
"Really or not?" Hu Zhengtang was shocked and looked at it intently, "It is indeed a dragon-slaying knife!"
Legend has it that there is a dragon-slaying knife hidden in the treasure house of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
This knife cuts iron like clay. Even if held by a young child, it can easily cut through iron and stone.
But Hu Zhengtang knew that this matter was not a legend.
In the early years when the late emperor was still alive, he entered the palace and was granted a title. He had witnessed the power of the dragon-slaying knife with his own eyes. His hair was blown off, his hair was rusty and his hair was as rusty as iron, which was simply an adjective given by him.
"No wonder the emperor is like this. He actually took out the dragon-slaying sword."
Hu Zhengtang breathed a sigh of relief and felt that he had figured something out, "I think it was Pan Meng who was careless. Your Majesty is indeed a wise king!"
The deputy general asked in confusion: "Hu Shuai, what do you mean by this?"
Hu Zhengtang showed an expression of "I have seen through everything": "Your Majesty must have discovered that the morale of our Eastern Tang soldiers has been damaged due to the provocations of the Qin soldiers for days. In order to boost morale, he took great risks and did not hesitate to
The provocateurs were killed just to boost the morale of our army!"
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized.
I see!
Thinking of this, they looked at Xu Que with admiration in their eyes.
He is worthy of being the emperor of the Eastern Tang Dynasty. In order to boost our morale, he actually put himself in danger!
This is so touching!
"Since the emperor has already killed the enemy general, he probably won't continue. Let's go up quickly and bring the emperor back!"
Hu Zhengtang said categorically: "Don't let the emperor get hurt!"
"As you command!"
Just when everyone stepped forward, they saw Xu Que suddenly pulling the reins of the horse, as if he was about to make a move.
Hu Zhengtang suppressed the excitement in his heart: "It seems that the emperor is also preparing to retreat, let's rush forward... Hey? Where is the emperor going? Why is he rushing forward again..."
Xu Que slowly pulled the reins of the horse, raised the dragon-slaying sword in his hand, and shouted: "Brothers! The wheel of history cannot be stopped. We will make Qin become history today! Charge!"
Damn it!
Hu Zhengtang's face turned pale with fright.
Your Majesty, why are you still charging?
In front of us is Qin's 300,000-strong army!
Killing the general single-handedly, with the sharpness of the dragon-slaying sword, and taking advantage of Pan Meng's lack of strength, it is not surprising that Xu Que was able to do this.
But this is not the same thing as marching to fight!
If three thousand soldiers and horses attack an army of three hundred thousand, they will definitely die!
Your Majesty, come back soon!
However, Xu Que led the 3,000 logistics troops to charge more and more fiercely, and in a blink of an eye, they were at the hundred-step mark of the Qin soldiers.
In front of the Qin army formation, a middle-aged man with a dignified demeanor and a stern face was riding a black war horse, staring at Xu Que.
He is Qin’s most powerful general, Bai Qi!
At that time, he conquered six countries and killed 300,000 prisoners. His reputation as the God of Killing spread throughout the nine states!
"This man is so unfamiliar. I didn't expect that the Eastern Tang Dynasty would produce such a fierce general." Bai Qi's eyes showed some admiration.
In these years, Xu Que was regarded as a weak king and no one in the country even remembered him, let alone an enemy general. Therefore, Bai Qi did not recognize Xu Que and just regarded him as a fierce general of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
"You actually dared to kill our general in front of Qin's 300,000-strong army. Now you dare to charge up with 3,000 soldiers and horses. It's a pity..."
Even though Bai Qi had a high vision, he had to admire Xu Que's courage, but he also shook his head regretfully and said: "It's a pity that he will die here today!"
After Bai Qi finished speaking, he suddenly raised his right hand and spread his five fingers.
"Prepare!"
Dozens of rows of archers behind him stood up, bent their bows and nocked arrows, getting ready.
Looking at Xu Que for the last time, Bai Qi clenched his fist and waved: "Fire the arrow!"
Whoosh!
Tens of thousands of arrows shot out suddenly, passing through a perfect parabola in the air and falling towards Xu Que and the others.
"Oops!"
Hu Zhengtang's expression changed suddenly, "Your Majesty, he is leading logistics troops. These soldiers are wearing light armor and cannot stop these arrows!"
When two armies are fighting, facing the opponent's cavalry charge, they usually choose to shoot arrows first to consume the opponent's troops.
Under normal circumstances, those who charge are usually heavy cavalry, and their armor is thick enough to withstand random arrows.
Even light cavalry would carry wooden shields with them to protect themselves from arrows.
However, Xu Que was leading a team of logistics soldiers, and their equipment was incomplete. Apart from a pair of bright silver light armor and a long knife for killing enemies, there was nothing else.
Being thrown around like this, most of the three thousand people would be killed or injured!
Hu Zhengtang became more and more anxious. Qin's bows and arrows were powerful and heavy. With the equipment of Xu Que and others, they would not be able to withstand them.
Seeing that countless people were about to die tragically on the spot, Xu Que looked indifferent, brandished the dragon-slaying knife, and shouted: "Brothers, follow my footsteps! What can a mere arrow do to me? Let them see us.
The snakeskin moves!"
I saw him holding the horse's reins and controlling the horse to shuttle through the arrow array. His whole body seemed to turn into a stream of light, skillfully avoiding every arrow.
The three thousand soldiers and horses behind him are now third-level masters, so they can naturally keep up with Xu Que's movements and follow closely behind.
In the dull eyes of everyone, three thousand soldiers and horses miraculously passed through the arrow array without any casualties!
"Haha, you didn't expect that I, Qiu Mingshan Car God, is the most slutty guy in the whole show!"
Xu Que's arrogant and domineering voice echoed over the battlefield...
