"It turns out...ahem...it turns out this is a counterattack?"
Xu Wuji's voice slowly became quieter, "No one has practiced this move for a long time. I didn't expect... I didn't expect..."
Wang Hu said for him: "I didn't expect you to die due to this move?"
".....good."
Wang Hu said: "Do you have anything else to say?"
"Ahem...Your Majesty's divine power...is ten times better than mine..."
Wang Hu sneered, "I've seen Chen Tao's abilities. A hundred years ago, he was just as good as a fish. How dare you claim to be better than Taizu and the Second Emperor?"
The luster in Xu Wuji's eyes gradually dimmed, "It's a pity..."
Wang Hu stopped talking, took a step forward, swung the sharp blade in his hand, and chopped off Xu Wuji's head. He rested for a while, took out the bullets from his body, then picked up the weapons and ammunition, and ran up the stairs.
After fighting for so long, he suffered a lot of injuries and lost a lot of blood, but his strength and reaction speed have improved a bit.
"Sure enough, only in a bloody fight is the only way to become stronger quickly!"
Wang Hu no longer participated in the fight between the Xiliang Dragon Riders and the Tooth Soldiers. He chose a hidden path, bypassed the many guards, and appeared at the top of the Babel Tower. This place was not like the hanging garden on the lower floor.
It is so beautiful, and at the top, there is only the scorching sunshine and the strong wind that often blows.
He kicked open an iron door and rushed out, immediately alerting the twelve tooth soldiers, "Who is it?"
Wang Hu didn't even answer, and killed all the enemies like chopping melons and vegetables. Although these tooth soldiers were extraordinary in combat, how could they be his opponents? Guns roared, screamed, and finally returned to peace. During this period,
, Chen Tao did not get up, he was still sitting on the sandalwood bench, holding a wine glass, with a strange smile on his face.
Seeing that Wang Hu had killed all his men, Chen Tao drank the wine in the cup, and then threw the cup down from a height of more than a hundred feet. He clapped his hands cheerfully, seeming to be very happy, "I
I knew that the person who could come to this observatory would definitely be someone with the same bloodline as me. Chief Coach, we haven’t seen each other for twenty years, but your appearance has not changed at all!
"
"Hey, I'm about to die, but before that, you'll die too!"
Wang Hu picked up the rifle, pointed it between Chen Tao's eyebrows, and pulled the trigger, "Pop!"
The bullet flew out, passed through the afterimage left behind, and sent sawdust flying from the chair. A strong wind hit his face from the left. Without thinking, Wang Hu threw away the rifle, turned around and punched out. Little did he know that Chen Tao was rushing closer.
At that moment, he turned over and jumped behind Wang Hu.
While in mid-air, Chen Tao kicked Wang Hu backwards and hit Wang Hu's back shoulder. After landing, he squatted down slightly and kicked out Wang Hu's joints again. These two moves were not the same.
In terms of weight, it means taking the word "unexpected". The balance of Wang Hu's body was destroyed, and there was another pain on his back. The huge gravity hit his back, sending him flying.
This punch was so painful that it almost broke Wang Hu's spine. Almost, that is, not yet.
Wang Hu hit the expensive stargazing equipment, and the lenses that took countless efforts to grind out fell to the ground with him and shattered into pieces. Chen Tao did not pursue him, but looked at the ground with some pity.
The broken glass shook his head and said: "It's a pity, it's a pity that it took Cai Yong more than three years to grind it, and it was just knocked over. And Cai Yong is dead, and it will probably be made for a long time in the future."
You won’t find such good lenses anymore.”
"Crack!"
Wang Hu jumped up from the ground, and the two revolvers in his hand were already pointed at Chen Tao. He sneered: "After I kill you, everyone in the world will have plenty of time to polish their lenses."
When Chen Tao saw Wang Hu put on the pistol again, he couldn't help laughing and said: "I have also practiced hard qigong, but you want to kill me with these two revolvers? Does the chief instructor think this is possible?"
"Who knows?" Wang Hu said coldly: "If someone is killed, he will die!"
"Oh, is it Taizu's quotation?" Chen Tao said leisurely; "I also memorized these when I was a child. People like us can always remember anything we have read as long as we are willing. Compared with the ordinary people below
Come on, we are simply two kinds of creatures.
Look at them, and then look at us. If they are human beings, then we are gods walking on earth. If we are human beings, then they are just ants."
Wang Hu sneered: "Then do you still remember the two sentences 'water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it'?"
Chen Tao laughed loudly, "These two sentences are often mentioned in newspapers in the south, but they only bark like wild dogs because they cannot happily exploit the people. Most people in this world are despicable.
Shameless people need to be whipped with a whip before they learn to respect them.
Emperor Taizu said many things, but what I like most is not what you said, but these two sentences..."
He raised his right index finger and chanted: "Blood destroys life and death, and the strong one wins!"
Before the voice fell, people were already rushing towards him like a strong wind. Wang Hu retreated and fired, "Pah! Pah! Pah!", and the bullets poured in front of him. Chen Tao dodged left and right, dodging the previous rounds.
The bullet was finally ignored and punched into his face.
Wang Hu fired all the bullets, released his hands, and was about to take out the dagger when he felt a sharp pain in his jaw. Suffering such a heavy blow, his brain suddenly fell into dizziness. A tenth of a second later, when he woke up
By that time, the person was already falling rapidly downwards.
He looked down and saw the thick earth below, but he had just been punched out of the observatory. Wang Hu broke out in a cold sweat, turned his body in the air, and reached out to grab the edge of the Tower of Babel. He
Just as he was about to climb up, Chen Tao had already walked over.
Looking at Wang Hu's embarrassed look, Chen Tao burst into laughter, "Although the chief instructor is good at martial arts, he is still far behind me."
Wang Hu gritted his teeth and said nothing.
"Hey, actually there is not such a big gap in martial arts between you and me, but do you know why you yourself failed miserably?"
“…..”
Chen Tao stood on the edge of the Babel Tower, letting the strong wind blow up his clothes. He opened his arms as if to embrace the whole world, "As an emperor, I have the purest divine blood flowing in my body. I don't need to practice hard."
If you practice hard, you will naturally become stronger. As long as everyone in the world knows my reputation, I will become stronger.
During the time of Emperor Taizu, China had less than 10 million people, and now China has only 40 million people. But I have launched so many wars, and everyone in the world, whether they support me or oppose me, will hear about it every day.
My name, then my strength will soar into the sky and become unparalleledly powerful!"
He pointed at several bullet marks on his chest and laughed: "Did you see that? Pistol bullets can't break the defense at all! To tell you the truth, in fact, I don't have to dodge at all, I just stand there and let you hit me.
Even those broken spears can't kill me."
"............"
Seeing Wang Hu's reaction, Chen Tao couldn't help but feel a little bored. He shook his head and sighed: "I just can't explain it to you people. Forget it, I will leave this world to you in the future."
After that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"etc!"
"kindness?"
"What do you mean?"
"Didn't I already say that this world will be left to you? That's where I want to go! Grandfather said that he left all his treasures in the sea of stars." Chen Tao pointed to the top of his head, "But the Academy of Sciences
Those guys told me that it would be difficult to do such a thing in two or three hundred years. This earth is tired of playing, so I will leave it to you guys. Unfortunately, if I could have been born thirty years earlier, I would have been able to compete with Emperor Taizu.
I want to ask for advice, I really have nothing to say to you ants!"
"Damn it, you still dare to mention Emperor Taizu? Look at Luoyang City below! It's all in ruins!"
Chen Tao burst out laughing, "You guys, and those from the Truth Sect, you must call yourself the emperor, but do you really understand what the emperor is thinking? Do you really know what he is pursuing? My grandfather once
He told me personally that he never wanted to be an emperor. It was the people below who set him up. And later on, he was already planning to abolish the knights, legions and tooth soldiers.
"
Looking at Wang Hu's shocked eyes, Chen Tao said with great interest: "You think I ruined the country, but you don't know that the country has been ruined a long time ago. When my father was here, in order to consolidate power, he let the generals go.
Acting recklessly, the self-respecting princes from all over the country have completely destroyed the laws established by their grandfather. Do you think I broke the Labor Law? In fact, I just admitted the reality.
Oh, you have been in Xiliang, so you may not know what is going on in the south. Yangzhou has long regarded the law as nothing. When my grandfather was here, he banned the spread of the Truth religion in the local area, and declared many times that he was not a god.
As a result, after he left, you people imprisoned him instead. After all, what I did was the most in line with my grandfather's wishes."
"Nonsense!" Wang Hu gritted his teeth and said: "The emperor will never let you mess around like this and mess up such a huge country. You blame everything on the emperor and the late emperor. Is it possible?
Don’t you have any fault yourself?”
"Hmph, Chief Coach, I wanted to call you uncle, but now it seems that you are just an idiot." Chen Tao looked at Luoyang City in the distance and said, "There is no one who can last forever in this world.
What? The city of Luoyang was destroyed, and it was just a matter of rebuilding it. Yes, most of the fault that things have come to this point lies with me.
But so what? People like us are inherently different from mortals. You say that the emperor is the only god in the world, then we are the children of gods. But you know that the descendants of the emperor and the descendants of gods are everywhere
What are you doing? Humph, you don’t know anything, you’re just an idiot who doesn’t know how to adapt to things from a hundred years ago!”
After saying that, Chen Tao ignored Wang Hu and turned around and walked away. When the Xiliang Dragon Cavalry dispersed the tooth soldiers, passed through the sky garden, and came to the observatory, he only saw Wang Hu silently.
Standing among a pile of corpses.
"Grand Commander, where has the false emperor gone?"
Wang Hu raised his head, the confusion in his eyes disappeared, and he said solemnly: "The false emperor has fallen from the Babel Tower and was shattered to pieces!"
"ah?"
"pity!"
It’s not that no one suspects that there is something wrong, but since the grand leader has said so, and there has never been any news about the false emperor, everyone can only assume that the false emperor was really knocked off the observatory and was smashed to pieces.
Now that the emperor was dead, the fighting quickly stopped. Most of the troops stopped resisting, but there were still some who were unwilling to surrender and still regarded the Xiliang army as rebels.
The remaining more than 10,000 tooth soldiers fled Luoyang with several of Chen Tao's sons and daughters. After grabbing the train, they rushed all the way to Qingdao, where they joined the fleet that was still loyal to the emperor, and then fled to Australia, which was once dedicated to
A place where prisoners are exiled.
In the next three or four years, many supporters of the royal family left the old road by boat one after another and headed to the New World to join the emperor's son. The newly established government turned a blind eye to such things.
I wish all these potential harms could be eliminated.
After killing the false emperor, Wang Hu's reputation soared and he became a man of the world. Some of his subordinates asked him to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, but Wang Hu refused. He said to everyone: "Although I am the son of Emperor Taizu,
But my surname is Wang, not Chen. If you want the emperor, you should find someone else. Aren’t Chen Tao’s sons in Australia? If you like, you can invite them back."
How is this possible? They killed Chen Tao and then asked Chen Tao's son to come back as emperor? Aren't they afraid that the whole family would be killed in the future? They argued for many days and put forward many candidates to be emperor, but there were always more people who opposed it than people who supported it.
And there is another biggest problem. The Xiliang Army contributed the most in this war to overthrow the puppet emperor. No matter who becomes the emperor, he will have to face the huge Xiliang Army.
The Xiliang Dragon Riders have belonged to the Truth Religion, but the Truth Religion has always been the target of suppression in the empire. How to deal with this is also a thorny issue.
At the end, Wang Hu felt impatient and said to everyone: "Then let's just use the system of the Republic. Isn't the Republic in Tianzhu very good? Just use that method!"
Everyone discussed for a while and reluctantly agreed to the proposal. In the following decades, the emperor's descendants continued to declare their claim to Luoyang, but these had nothing to do with Wang Hu. He led his troops back to Yinchuan
, spent the rest of ten years in the place where I grew up.
