The sunset, the autumn wind, the long knife like snow.

It's just that this scene is not playing out somewhere in China, but on the outskirts of the capital of France.

"I wanted you to go back to the Ottomans, you shouldn't have drawn a knife from me."

Ding Yi said this, calmly took a half step back and pulled out the long knife.

At such moments, he was almost paralyzed.

Long knives and scimitars, there are no tricks, whether it is Muhammad II or Ding Yi, they are all the ability to kill in battle, it is completely impossible to pay attention to what point to stop like Yuan Bin, and a fatal blow is the only destination.

"Bell!" In the battle between the long knife and the scimitar, Damascus Steel won the victory and shaved the tip of the long knife in Ding Yi's hand, but Ding Yi's second knife did not stop and followed, "Bell! "This time, the most proud cold weapon work of Li Jiangtou during his lifetime, cut off the scimitar in the hands of Mehmed II.

Muhammad II's reaction was quick, and although he was surprised by the change in momentum in the moment before Ding Yi took the knife out, and the ferocious long knife also made him feel cold, a caliph who had come out of the battle array, he would not think about these things at this moment, he immediately let go of the knife, and took three steps back to pull out the second scimitar on his left waist.

He retreated very quickly, and Dante followed quickly.

Not only was Mehmed II quick to react, but the memory of the muscles in his body was even faster than his consciousness, and when he took three steps back, his hand was already on the hilt, and even though Ding Yi was already in front of him, he was given half a second, half a second and he was enough to draw the scimitar. Give Ding Yi a fatal blow!

It's not a good duel, unless you add a guess. Otherwise, anyone can make it exciting.

Muhammad II would never have been able to pull out his spare cutlass because he used the long knife, which had been cut in half. Cut off the elbow of his right hand that was drawing the knife to his left waist, and if Ding Yi slashed it in two cleanly and maintained the knife posture, he would probably win a lot of applause and cheers.

But no, the elbow is a human joint, and this knife came down and was stuck.

"Cards!" Mehmed II couldn't help but scream, "Ahhh......hhh

Because Ding Yi broke the long knife with great force, using the half-broken elbow joint of Muhammad II as a clamp. Cut off the half-cut knife.

The pain made Mehmed II scream irrepressibly.

At this time, the tip of the knife, which had been cut off for the first time, had just fallen, and the screams of Mehmed II had also fallen.

Because Ding Yi used the knife, which had been broken twice, and roughly only a blade of 20 centimeters was left at the blade, to cut the throat of Muhammad II. Then he did not stop, and from the neck of Mohammed II, which was still spurting blood, he reached out and inserted it into the flesh. Until he held the other party's cervical vertebrae: "I originally wanted you to go back to Ottoman, you shouldn't have drawn a knife from me." ”

Then Ding Yi broke the other party's cervical vertebrae, and at this time, the male lord of the generation was Muhammad II. He was too dead to die.

Ding Yi was still holding his broken knife until Cao Jixiang came over and took the knife that had been broken twice.

He did not cheer like the winner of the usual duel. Instead, he approached the notary: "Give him a funeral, a king's funeral." The cardinal and Louis XI nodded blankly. They clearly hadn't woken up from the shock yet.

Then Ding Yi was escorted by the guard regiment and left the makeshift dueling arena.

Until the entire convoy has left. Only then did the stands erupt into bursts of exclamations: "Oh my God! What do I see? Is Mehmed II dead? "Could it be that miracles are so cheap and flashing over and over again? My God! Poseidon killed Mehmed II with a broken knife! "This is the victory of God, this is the fate of the heathen!" ”

The count, who came from the Kingdom of Sicily, forgot for a moment to kiss the noble lady's hand, and he was stunned: "I can't believe my eyes, God, how is this possible?" And the baron, who came from Holy Rome, exclaimed with great emotion, "This is the victory of heroes!" Hero's victory! "Obviously, the young man who has just taken the knighthood still has fantasies and enthusiasm.

"I won't advise you anymore, my little angel." The Duke of Burgundy lifted the brim of his hat and said to his daughter, "If you insist, then go back to Poseidon's side." But you have to remember that you have to be faithful to him, and you never know what hole cards this majesty has, maybe only God knows. ”

Mary didn't think too much about it, she wasn't Margaret of Anjou, she wasn't Isabella of Castil, the maiden blushed at the victory of Ding Yi and kissed her father excitedly: "I will, I will!" Father, I will follow the banner of His Majesty, go to war, to conquer! Then she galloped to her horse, and went after the great army.

Along with her, there was also Isabella of Castile, and it was obvious that the nobles of Castile had more expectations in their eyes when they looked at Isabella. It's not just because of Ding Yi's victory, it's not just that, they are not those civilians outside the stands, cheering when they win or curse when they lose.

What they saw was not just Ding Yi's force value.

"Looking back, there was no surprise." This point was agreed between the messenger of Castile, and the messenger of King Edward IV of England, who was talking to the Duke of Burgundy, "When the curtain came down, His Royal Highness the Duke, we found that Mehmed II, from beginning to end, was in fact played with, or rather teased, by Poseidon. ”

The Duke of Burgundy put on his gloves: "Yes, that majesty has been grasping every rhythm, and all developments are under his control. It is not that he killed Mehmed II, but that from the very beginning, Mehmed II was dead. That's what scarred him was. ”

"According to my people, the eunuch in rich robes gave Muhammad II a carpet on the first day. It is said that it was the carpet used by Brusa's guards to pray to their gods, and it was given to him by Muhammad II. From that moment on, Poseidon had been guiding Mehmed II, and he was disturbing the minds of the other side. ”

And he happily responded to every request of Mehmed II to reschedule the duel, which made Mehmed II wonder if this qiē was a hoax. Or what kind of stratagem awaits Poseidon? No one, no one, would have thought, Poseidon, to defeat Mehmed II with a sword. ”

The messenger of Edward IV nodded: "It is true, but this is what Poseidon declared: duel, without armor, with a sword." From the very beginning, he declared that he would kill the other party with a long knife and even disable firearms. No matter how impossible it is, as soon as Poseidon says it, at least in Europe, I think few people dare to doubt it. ”

As if such a sensation were not enough, a fast horse came from the direction of Paris, galloped to the cardinal, who acted as a notary, jumped off the horse, and whispered something. Soon the news spread among the magnates of the nations, and they began to withdraw one after another. And the common people on the periphery soon got the news: "What I don't understand is why you, a pious man, have not been favored by the Lord to go and wait by God's side?" ”

This sentence was said by Ding Yi to the cardinal who tried to embarrass him when he entered Paris.

And the latest news today is that the cardinal is dead, without any wounds on his body, without any signs of poisoning.

Even according to the examiner: "The bishop's skin looks as pink as a baby!" This was also confirmed by other eyewitnesses.

If the former king of the Tatar steppes had also been first, he would have probably felt that this method of death would have been familiar. Because this is the sign that Ding Yi "cursed to death" in Maoerzhuang ten years ago. For medieval Europe, for Europeans who were still popular in bloodletting in Washington, perhaps the bishop was really favored by the Lord, which is a very convincing explanation.

Almost in a day, the whole of Paris believed that Ding Yi was a saint.

What the rest of the people thought was another matter, for ninety percent of the people at the bottom, the vast majority of the noble ladies, and more than half of the magnates of the nations who came to the ceremony, agreed with the statement: yes, Poseidon was a saint, and he recommended the cardinal to God, and the latter was favored by the Lord.

Not without rebuttal asked, "In that case, Poseidon recommends to God all his enemies&"

"How did Mehmed II die? He cut off Poseidon's knife, but he was still dead. Do you think that Poseidon did not recommend Mehmed II to the omnipotent, omnipresent, ignorant and ignorant God? ”

Even the nobles who had a small semi-reservation, such as the Duke of Burgundy, could only remain silent when it came to the subject.

However, Ding Yi didn't have much time to pay attention to these rumors.

Because the Book of Rites that he was looking forward to always came.

Yao Kui came voluntarily, not kidnapped, and he came with Zhu Jianshen's holy decree.

"Why am I not allowed to resign? Whether it is Liangguang or outside the Guan, how many officials can be placed? Ding Yi asked Yao Kui helplessly, "The tax that the Ministry of Industry can pay every year is no less than that of the two political envoys!" The Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry actually gave up such a fat shortage? ”

Yao Kui stroked his beard and smiled: "Your Majesty xià ......"

"The word is, when I got married, I was afraid that Uncle Wang Shi would be embarrassed, and the insider recognized Dazhang as a brother, so I don't want to be born for no reason." What Ding Yi said was that Wang Zhen was in power back then, and he was not very full of Liu Yiyi's background in a businessman's family, so he wanted Ding Yi to repent of his marriage, so Ding Yi, with the help of Li Xian, let Liu Yiyi recognize Yao Kui as his brother-in-law, and with the identity of a scholar's sister-in-law, Wang Zhen had no choice but to give up.

Who knew that Ding Yi said this, but Yao Kui sprayed: "How can this be reasonable? No rules, no circle! His Majesty is chaotic, and the minister does not dare to obey! If so, the beggars will return the bones! If Ding Yi insisted on doing this, he would have to resign, because in this case, he felt that he had nothing to do as a scholar of the Ministry of Rites. (To be continued......)
