Chapter 588: The Gamble Begins (2)
In the eleventh year after Chu Tian came to White Valley City.
Winter, heavy snowfall.
The current emperor of the Dacang Dynasty has been hanging for 3,000 years, and the 36 princes and kings of the Dacang Dynasty and countless aristocratic officials have rushed to the Dacang Imperial City to celebrate his birthday. The eight emperors of the neighboring dynasties of the Dacang Dynasty also sent out envoy groups one after another and rushed to the Dacang Imperial City.
On the first day of the birthday, on the birthday banquet, the deputy envoy of the envoy group of the Cangyan Dynasty, a neighbor of the Dacang Dynasty, went crazy after drinking, and teased the 235th daughter of Yunhang in public, 'Princess Yunhe', and said wildly, asking the Dacang Dynasty to take all the territories of a vassal state as a dowry, and send Princess Yunhe to marry the eighteen princes of the Cangyan Dynasty as concubines!
'For concubines'!
The princess of the Dacang Dynasty married the prince of a neighboring country as a concubine!
It is even more necessary to cede the territory of a vassal state and give it to the Cangyan Dynasty as a dowry for no reason!
The ministers of the Dacang Dynasty were cowardly and did not dare to speak, and the clouds hung on the birthday banquet and cowered.
Only the ninety-ninth prince of the Dacang Dynasty, Yun Tian, drew his sword and burst out, killed the chief and deputy envoys of the Cangyan Dynasty envoys with a sword, and angrily reprimanded Yun Xuan for being incompetent, under the pursuit of countless palace guards, he forcibly broke into the harem of the Dacang Dynasty, forcibly took away his biological mother 'Nanxiu Imperial Princess' and the two younger brothers and four younger sisters of the first mother's compatriots, and broke out of the palace of the Dacang Dynasty with a sword, breaking out of the imperial city like no one, and drifting away.
The Great Cang Emperor was furious and sent an elite guard to chase and kill, but he was killed by a group of guests and doormen around Yuntian, and his face was lost and his majesty was lost.
After the Cangyan Dynasty received the news that the chief and deputy envoys of its own envoy group had been killed, they immediately dispatched troops to the border of the Great Cang Dynasty and ordered Yun Hang to give an explanation!
Yun Hang's explanation was that in addition to Yun and the princess, five other princesses were sent to the border between the two countries as gifts of apology. At the same time, there was also a document of the territory cession of the vassal state, as well as a mountain of rare treasures, gold and silver coins.
As soon as this incident came out, the Dacang Emperor shook the world, and the majesty of the royal family was completely lost.
Yuntian took his biological mother and younger brothers and sisters all the way to the feudal country thousands of miles away and fled back, along the way has already issued a conquest document, after many years of Yunhang's mediocre deeds, convening the heroes and heroes of the Dacang Dynasty to rise up together, overthrow the useless faint king Yunhang, and recast the majesty of the first power of the hundred countries around the Dacang Dynasty.
As soon as the Yuntian text came out, the Great Canghuang Dynasty shook the world.
The people of Yuntian who fled in embarrassment are still far away from their own feudal country, and the two vassal states on the verge of Yuntian fiefdom have already mobilized their armies and rushed to the border of the feudal country, putting on a posture of joining forces to destroy Yuntian.
The distance is far away, and the efficiency of the two vassal states in mobilizing troops is not very high, and it has been half a month since Yuntian's affairs came back from the distant imperial city, and the two vassal states have mobilized more than 100,000 troops, and at the same time they have come to an alluvial plain called Sanjiangkou.
As the name of the place is, three great rivers meander out from the southern foot of Dacang Mountain, travel for I don't know how many thousands of miles, and converge here into a mighty river, the water surface is hundreds of miles wide, all the way to the northeast.
At the confluence of the three rivers, there is an alluvial plain with a radius of tens of thousands of miles, the land is extremely fertile, and the products are extremely rich, which happens to be divided equally by Yuntian and the other two vassal states.
The two vassal states hurriedly sent a large army to gather here, obviously with the posture of carving up this piece of the Sanjiangkou Plain, and then carving up the Yuntian vassal states.
The heavy snow fell one after another, and on the wall of a big city, Chu Tian held a cigarette in his mouth, quietly looking at the large figures who were trudging through the thick snow more than ten miles away. The vanguard armies of the two vassal states combined were only a hundred thousand people, and they resolutely launched an attack on this 'Silver Lake City' from their own cities hundreds of miles away, despite the cold weather and heavy snow blocking the roads.
Spit out a smoke ring heavily, and Chu Tian asked in a deep voice, "Lord Wang...... Will it be safe?"
Responsible for sitting in Yinhu City, he can be called the confidant general under Yuntian, and Lin Wufeng, who has cultivated to a high level comparable to the life realm, stood beside Chu Tian, and said with a confident smile: "The prince is the person who is carried by the sky, and he is destined to revive the mountains and rivers and rejuvenate my Dacang Dynasty, those guards, where can they get the prince?"
With a cold snort, Lin Wufeng said in a deep voice: "However, the cultivation of the imperial concubine and the prince's younger brothers and sisters is weaker, and the prince wants to protect them thoroughly, so the speed of return is naturally slower." ”
Chu Tian nodded, pointed to the approaching coalition forces of the two countries outside, and said indifferently: "That's good, as long as the prince is safe and sound, that's good!" General Lin, prepare, we can't wait, we want to see how powerful these treasures have been forged over the years!"
Lin Wufeng's face suddenly turned red, he took a deep breath, looked at the three hundred bed crossbows lined up on the city wall, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly: "Yes, Master Strong, we can't wait for a long time, we want to see how lethal these treasures can be on the battlefield." ”
After a pause, Lin Wufeng waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "The soldiers outside the city, there are not even many people wearing leather armor, don't use the Wild Dragon Crossbow for the time being, use the Rainstorm Crossbow to give them a little bit of power first!"
The so-called Crazy Dragon Crossbow is the kind of heavy crossbow specially made by Chu Tian with a bowstring force of 10 million catties.
The Rainstorm Crossbow is another kind of bowstring designed by Chu Tian with a force of only 350,000 catties, an extremely large number of crossbow bolts, and a more delicate and slender volume.
The arrows of the Dragon's crossbow were one foot and two feet long, the thickness of a baby's arm, and the arrows of these Storm Crossbows were no more than a foot and two inches long, and only the thickness of a little finger, and a bed crossbow could send a thousand and eighty arrows fifteen miles away at a time!
At this moment, among the bed crossbows at the mercy of the city wall, there are only thirty dragon crossbows, and the remaining two hundred and seventy are rainstorm crossbows!
The enemy outside the city was getting closer and closer, and Chu Tian clasped his hands in front of his chest and looked at these soldiers indifferently.
In the sky above Silver Lake City, Chu Tian clearly felt the existence of two weak Heavenly Soldiers.
In the hands of the two Heavenly Soldiers, there was an object that emitted strange fluctuations, and the strange fluctuations turned into a whirlpool covering thousands of miles in the sky, firmly locking the 'battlefield' below!
Chu Tian took a deep breath, and then exhaled a long puff of smoke.
"War, Death, Soul...... Harvest!" Chu Tian pursed his lips contemptuously, this Heavenly Court's means of doing things are enough.
On the city wall, Lin Wufeng gave an order, and two hundred and seventy rainstorm crossbows had already adjusted their shooting angles, and with a dull sound, black traces tore through the air, shattering countless falling snowflakes, like a swarm of hornets that brought death, roaring and covering the army that was struggling in the snow ten miles ahead.
A terrible howl could be heard from afar.
The snow was covered with blood, and at least forty or fifty thousand people were pierced by arrows in this wave of fire.
The hot blood cooled rapidly on the snow, and the bed crossbow designed and forged by Chu Tian showed its edge for the first time on the battlefield.
"It's on!" Chu Tian muttered in a low voice.
