Chapter 103: How Great Is the Loyal and Brave Earl!
Since the defeat of Emperor Taizong of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the Northern Expedition and the founding of Xixia, envoys have often been sent to each other.
However, without exception, every time, Zhou would be humiliated by the envoys of Liao and Xia.
The reason is that the martial virtues of the Great Zhou Dynasty were not sufficient!
The two countries of Liao and Xia were located in bitter cold. Their people hunted and herded animals on horseback since childhood, and practiced martial arts.
Zhao Zhen still remembers that that year, when he had just ascended the throne, the Liao Kingdom sent envoys to congratulate him. Among them, there was a powerful warrior who pinned the generals of the Zhou Dynasty to the ground and beat him violently.
That year was very embarrassing, but it was not the first time that Da Zhou was embarrassed.
The civil and military officials at that time seemed to have become accustomed to losing to the Liao Kingdom in martial arts competitions.
I don’t know since when, the people of the Zhou Dynasty believed from the bottom of their hearts that losing to Liao and Xia in terms of martial arts was normal.
It seemed that Dazhou was used to this kind of humiliation.
After all, in the eyes of civil servants, if martial virtue is not sufficient, there is still literary virtue.
The great Zhou Wende was unparalleled in the world.
However, in the eyes of the Liao and Xia countries, the culture that Zhou was proud of was just like advocating excellence. They mercilessly laughed at Zhou's so-called literary and moral advantages.
Civilization will eventually replace barbarism, but barbarism can also overturn civilization for a while!
How could Zhao Zhen not be angry?
How can the people of the Zhou Dynasty not be angry in their hearts?
However, if they can't defeat them, they can only accept their fate!
Zhao Zhen would never forget that kind of shame.
Now, I saw the moment when the energetic Wei Yuan said, "Let's go together."
Zhao Zhen suddenly felt that the "rich martial virtue" of Dazhou should start from now; the washing away of the shame of the past should also start from today!
"Wei Qing, let them see the martial virtues of our great Zhou Dynasty and show our country's prestige!"
Zhao Zhen spoke slowly.
The emperor said that this battle is destined to be recorded in history!
"If Liao and Xia lose today's battle, from now on, from generation to generation, they will be vassals and pay tribute to me, the Great Zhou Dynasty!"
Zhao Zhen was rarely tough.
Ye Luxin and Li Liangzuo looked a little embarrassed.
If they really lose, they will be the sinners of Liao and Xia!
However, in order to readjust the mutual market treaty and no longer surrender to the Great Zhou Dynasty, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue this war.
Wei Yuan might not be able to win one against two. Even if they win, they will be confident enough to win the next two battles!
The reason why they have so much confidence is because, in their deep-rooted concepts, Da Zhou’s ‘martial ethics’ just doesn’t work!
There is no reason why they should lose!
"start!"
As a voice sounded.
The battle between Wei Yuan and the warriors of the two countries officially began.
Before coming to Bianjing, Ye Luxin made an extremely detailed investigation of Wei Yuan. In order to reassure Xia Guo, he said softly:
"When the Wei Yuan Formation killed seven generals, they were on horseback. Fighting on horseback, this person may be invincible, but fighting on foot, the advantage of being on horseback is gone."
Upon hearing this, Li Liangzuo and the envoys' eyes lit up.
Yes, in a horse fight, Wei Yuan may be invincible.
But this is a foot battle!
With one against two, two fists cannot defeat four hands!
"That's right, Wei Yuan has no advantage in this battle, he will definitely lose!"
Li Liangzuo spoke confidently.
Although Da Zhou produced a young general like Wei Yuan.
But they still feel that Da Zhou just can’t do it!
The civil servants and generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty naturally felt suffocated in their hearts when they heard the arrogant voices of the two chief envoys.
They looked at Wei Yuan one after another, with high hopes in their eyes, as if to say
Uncle Zhongyong, fuck their mothers!
It's too late, but it's soon.
I saw two warriors from Liao and Xia rushing towards Wei Yuan from the left and right sides at the same time.
As the war began, everyone couldn't help but become nervous and talked privately:
"I wonder if General Wei can win the two of them."
"Unfortunately, Uncle Zhongyong is brave and unparalleled, but there is no point in fighting one against two!"
"It concerns the face of my great Zhou and His Majesty. Uncle Zhongyong should be cautious, but now"
"."
Most of the people who raised questions were civil servants. They didn't understand Wei Yuan's strength, and they were all worried at the moment.
Right now!
The sound of the sword and hammer colliding attracted everyone's attention.
In an instant, the warrior named Tuoba Baoren was easily repelled by Wei Yuan.
Seeing this scene, both the envoys of the two countries and the ministers of Zhou Dynasty could not help but be surprised.
"There is no ancient warrior who is good at wielding a hammer. However, Uncle Zhongyong can defeat him with one blow?"
"The strong man of Xia Kingdom seems to be powerful, but General Wei seems to have not used all his strength?"
"This Wei Yuan actually has such extraordinary strength!"
"."
Hearing the discussion, Xu Changzhi laughed and said:
"In terms of strength, there are only a handful of people in this world who can match Uncle Zhongyong!"
He wasn't lying.
Wei Yuan was seen wielding two sabers, forcing the two men back temporarily, and then began to take the initiative to attack.
He held the sword with one arm, and the blade dragged on the ground. Sparks shot out in an instant, and he struck at Liao General Yelu Chongbao.
Wei Yuan used 80% of his strength with this sword.
In an instant, a halberd held by Yelu Zhongbao was split from the middle.
If Tuoba Baoren hadn't pulled Yelu Chongbao back in time, that knife would have directly killed him!
"The chickens and dogs are vulnerable!"
Wei Yuan showed no mercy to them and crushed them forcefully.
Tuoba Baoren swung his hammer to meet the attack.
The two weapons collided again.
The sudden impact of the two forces made Tuoba Baoren's hands tremble.
Bang——
Wei Yuan swung his sword again.
Tuoba Baoren used all his strength to resist.
Although he did not end up like Yelu Chongbao who broke his weapon.
However, his hands were already shaken to the point of blood and flesh by the powerful force exerted by Wei Yuan.
Both arms seemed to be broken.
Wei Yuan's face was solemn, "You dare to come to my Celestial Empire to show off your power, you don't know what you are talking about!"
Not only is he good at martial arts, but he is also unforgiving with his words.
Don't you Liao and Xia countries boast of your martial virtues?
I'm fighting for your martial virtues!
Don't you accept it?
I'll beat you until you accept it!
With this thought, Wei Yuan almost beat the two men to the point of begging for mercy with an overwhelming advantage.
Everyone was stunned. They thought that there would be a very tragic battle.
At least it should have been a battle of hundreds of rounds, right?
What was the result?
Wei Yuan defeated the two men to the point of losing their armor in just a few moves.
This.
It is really incredible!
"We. Just won so easily?"
"Whether it is official history or folklore, those who use hammers and halberds are mostly brave warriors. However, Zhongyong Bo defeated the two men so quickly? Awesome."
"Am I dreaming? Winning so easily?"
"Why can't my Great Xia have such a fierce general?"
"."
At this moment.
Everyone saw Wei Yuan's strength.
It can be said to be invincible!
So much so that many ministers of the Great Zhou could not believe what was happening.
When will the warriors of the Great Zhou win with an overwhelming advantage in a duel with the warriors of Liao and Xia?
The chickens and pottery dogs are vulnerable.
When will the generals of the Great Zhou be able to fight back against the fierce generals of Liao and Xia so domineeringly?
This is simply subverting cognition!
Even Yelu Xinxian and Li Liangzuo were deeply shocked at this moment.
The warrior who was entrusted with an important task by them was defeated just like that?
Not even a wave was made?
When they thought of what they had said before, they felt extremely ashamed.
They threatened that Wei Yuan would definitely lose, but what was the result?
For a moment, their faces were extremely embarrassed.
At this moment when Wei Yuan beat the two of them to the point where they had no power to fight back.
Everyone, including Zhao Zhen, fell into silence.
After a while.
Xu Changzhi was the first to speak: "Great is the loyal and brave earl, who has enhanced the prestige of our country!"
Then, many ministers shouted one after another:
"Great is the loyal and brave earl!"
"The loyal and brave earl's battle made our Great Zhou proud, and it should be made clear!"
"The loyal and brave earl has enhanced the prestige of our country, how great! How great!"
"."
This breath has been suppressed in the hearts of the people of the Great Zhou for too long.
Today, they can finally hold their heads high and say to the people of Liao and Xia that we, the Great Zhou, also have martial virtues!
"This battle is really satisfying!"
"It feels good!"
"The pent-up anger that has been pent up in my chest for many years can finally be spit out!"
"."
Many old ministers and generals who have seen the arrogance of Liao and Xia spoke highly of this battle.
Although it was not a large-scale battle, although it was just a contest between three people.
But after Wei Yuan won with an overwhelming advantage.
The meaning of this contest is completely different.
So what if it is one against two?
Loyal and Brave Earl, invincible!
