Chapter 147 Yang Feng vs. Blue Jade
The next day, the day of the competition between Liang Guogong and Ambassador Yang.
Outside the Chengtian Gate.
A ring that had just been built was impressively placed in the middle of the royal road south of the Wulong Bridge.
Of course, this was granted by His Majesty the Emperor.
Because His Majesty the Emperor asked the garrison of the capital to come and watch in addition to the rotation, so it would require a large place, although there was a small school field in the city, but the problem was that the guards in Beijing added up, except for those who went out and guarded on duty, there were still hundreds of thousands, so many people were crowded in the small school field, one could not squeeze out, and the second was not clear at all.
It's a joust.
What can you see on a flat ground a few hundred meters apart?
Modern gymnasiums are all terraced stands.
But it's different here.
The castle tower, the surrounding city walls, and the roofs of the thousand-step corridors on both sides can be used as stands.
So at this moment, except for the Chengtianmen City Tower, the other city walls are all full of audiences, including the left and right Chang'an Gate City Towers, which are also occupied by those civil and military officials, and even the Chengtianmen City Platform is also an audience.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
In the shouts of a mountain calling for long live, His Majesty the Emperor inherited the gate of heaven.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing on the tower of Chengtianmen City, was dressed in a red dragon robe of the Twelve Regiments, wearing a crown of wings, carrying the sun and the moon on his left and right shoulders, although he already had a white beard, he still looked good, at least there should be no possibility of death this year, I have to say that those officials were disappointed when they saw him once......
Why isn't he dead?
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the crowded scene below with satisfaction.
"Yang Feng, haven't you come yet?"
He said.
"Your Majesty, this guy is such a big shelf, dare to let Your Majesty wait for him!"
Lan Yu, who was standing in the ring, said with a smile.
At this time, he was still wearing the suit, of course, there was armor inside, although it was a martial arts competition, at least the torso part still had to be protected.
Besides, Yang Feng wears body armor like that.
There is nothing unfair on this issue, it is really unfair to calculate that Lan Yu is unfair, after all, his fish scale armor cannot be compared to Yang Feng's body armor, at this time, the generals of the Ming army are used to fish scale armor, but the armor is square, and the fish scale cover is fixed on the leather inside, as for the protection ability, in fact, the key depends on the quality of the armor......
There is a huge difference between carburized forged steel sheet and ordinary wrought iron sheet.
As soon as he finished saying this, Li Liang hurriedly walked to Zhu Yuanzhang's side, bowed his head and said a few words.
His Majesty the Emperor smiled slightly.
"Open the Hongwu Gate for him!"
He said.
"Open Hongwu Gate!"
Li Liang hurriedly shouted.
As his shout passed, a side door of the southernmost Hongwu Gate slowly opened, and the middle definitely couldn't be opened, that was for the emperor's use, and it was for the emperor's major ceremonies, such as going to worship the sky, and he himself usually didn't go out. And as the gate opened, there was a rhythmic drum beat outside, and then a little girl with a stick in her hand appeared, still wearing a standard little blouse and little white dress. As her stick went up and down, the drums behind her obviously followed her rhythm, and several little girls with drums on their chests walked out while beating the drums, and then behind them were brass trumpets, and the sound of drums and trumpets resounded through Chengtianmen.
Behind it, of course, is Yang Feng's carriage.
There's not much to say about this, after all, he's been riding in this carriage lately.
But......
"What the hell is this?"
Lan Yu looked behind Yang Feng in astonishment.
Behind him is a group of small yellow monsters.
It was certain that the little girls were wearing specially sewn coats, and these little monsters were round and like rabbit ears, with red spots on both cheeks, black ears, and eyes on their faces, eyes and mouth, and two small short legs, swaying neatly from side to side as they went.
Also waving with both hands.
Like a flock of wobbly little yellow ducks.
Their swing followed the rhythm of the drums and trumpets in front of them, which was clearly a piece of music, though it was probably hasty and not very neat.
But it's still very rhythmic.
However, there was actually another person in the middle of the carriage between them and Yang Feng, a long-legged girl wearing the same skirt, facing them, constantly commanding them with gestures, even if he didn't look at his face, His Majesty the Emperor who was holding a telescope knew that it was his daughter just by looking at this height. His Majesty the Emperor was rarely depressed by his daughter in Daxia clothes, but fortunately his daughter was not like those little white dresses, wearing half socks to show her legs, and she wore a pair of white pants in the skirt, although the pants were thinner, they were all close to the legs.
Such a strange line is still very long, because it is two columns, so the little yellow duck stretches, like a yellow caterpillar wriggling on the royal road......
"Your Majesty, this guy is blatantly overstepping the rules."
Sapphire shouted.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him silently......
I'm not blind, of course I see him overstepping, but what can I do? And at this time, you shouted so loudly, do you think I haven't lost enough face?
"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't think it counts, there are many kinds of yellow, and His Majesty's ban on people to use it is not this kind of yellow."
Next to him, Li Liang said very sensibly.
"Yes, this yellow is not disabled."
"It's not trespassing."
……
A group of ministers hurriedly chimed in.
"Forget it, no matter what kind of yellow, even other colors are banned, all of them are wasted, they are nothing more than some regular clothes, and the people can wear them if they want to!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said.
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
……
The ministers hurriedly said.
Zhu Yuanzhang just smiled indifferently.
He couldn't help but say, it is estimated that Yang Feng has to change his color every day, this little villain is deliberately trying to provoke him, so instead of letting him change the forbidden color every day to swagger through the market, so that the people can see his provocation to the imperial power, it is better to simply abolish these prohibitions and make him lose the performance stage.
In the final analysis, Lao Zhu doesn't really care about these color bans, in fact, various color bans, including yellow, only came out a few years ago.
It should be influenced by Confucianism.
Just like Liu Bang formulated various court systems under the influence of Confucianism, and then knew that it was the pleasure of being a king.
Confucianism also taught Zhu Yuanzhang to clarify the difference between imperial power and rank, so that he could feel the joy of being a king, but he himself really didn't really care, otherwise it would not have been possible to start banning these after many years. And now that Yang Feng has seized this one that can be angry with him, then don't give him a chance, don't you just wear prohibited colors to show your arrogance, then I'll just let it go, and everyone will wear it casually.
See how arrogant you are?
Then everyone watched as the yellow caterpillar moved forward.
The drums and trumpets sounded rhythmically.
Soon they stopped in front of the ring, and then the little princess commanded the little yellow duck behind......
Pikachu.
However, the Ming soldiers and civilians don't know what Pikachu is, and they automatically regard it as a little yellow duck.
A small yellow duck with rabbit ears.
Under the command of the princess, a total of 100 little yellow ducks quickly completed the formation, forming five horizontal lines in front of the ring, and then took out colored threads and waved them, and danced while waving. In this way, the carriage door opened with the cheerleaders cheering, and Ambassador Yang walked out with a smile, of course, still in full combat equipment, but the rifle he was carrying had been loaded with bayonets.
"Yang Feng, the envoy of the Great Xia Kingdom, has seen His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"
He saluted Zhu Yuanzhang and said.
"Excuse me, today's envoy competes with the Duke of Liangguo, and I watch with the army and the people."
Zhu Yuanzhang said.
"Your Majesty, since you are competing, I am afraid that casualties will be inevitable."
Yang Feng said.
"How about signing a life and death certificate with you?"
Lan Yu sneered on stage.
Yang Feng looked at Zhu Yuanzhang......
"It's just a competition, it's time to stop, the Duke of Liangguo is my important minister of the Ming Dynasty, and the envoy is the envoy of a friendly country, I don't want to see any damage, so there is no need for life and death."
Zhu Yuanzhang said.
What else could he do?
Did he say that you could die one of you?
Everyone can look at him, he wants to behave like a holy lord.
Of course, it is actually better to operate without signing a life and death certificate, for example, Lan Yu killed Yang Feng, that is, he killed the envoy of a friendly country, of course, he must be arrested and punished, and it depends on whether His Majesty the Emperor wants to kill him. Yang Feng killed Lan Yu, it is impossible to arrest and punish the crime, but fortunately, it can be regarded as solving this trouble for His Majesty the Emperor, after all, he also wants to kill this guy now.
Especially after Lan Yu entered Beijing with five hundred righteous soldiers, his impulse was even stronger.
"Yes."
Yang Feng said.
Then he walked into the ring with his rifle in his hand amid the cheers of the cheerleaders, looking at Lan Yu on the other side.
"Ambassador Yang, if you don't bully people, I'll use this knife to compete with you."
The latter said, carrying a relatively long two-handed knife.
Yang Feng took his rifle with a bayonet and took a picture with him......
"Liang Guogong is exquisite!"
He said.
Almost the same length.
In the final analysis, the automatic rifle in his hand itself is not a stabbing design, and those rifles with a bayonet of 1.7 meters in World War II cannot be compared, in fact, modern rifles are as short as possible, and the bayonet is also a multi-functional saber, which is not as long as the World War II rifle without a bayonet.
In this era, cold weapons are all about playing length, and any kind of long weapon on the battlefield is longer than him.
But Lan Yuzhen is carrying two spears, so there is no need to compare this competition.
But the whipping and the like are short.
The whip of the actual battle, that is, his rifle without the length of the bayonet, Lan Yu obviously suffered, after all, there was no need to break the armor in this kind of competition.
That is, this kind of military long knife is about the same as his rifle and bayonet, and it has to be shorter in the long knife, and the really long two-handed long knife is still longer than his rifle and bayonet.
Yang Feng, who finished the length, retreated.
"How about a best-of-three game?"
He asked, holding his rifle.
"Yes!"
Lan Yu said with a finger of the long knife.
"Wait!"
The little princess shouted.
Then she held a sign for the first game, and suddenly ran to the ring, and Zhang Ying, who was caught at the same time, struck the gong......
"Let's go!"
The little princess shouted.
Yang Feng suddenly stepped forward with a rifle, almost at the same time, Lan Yu stabbed straight with both hands with long knives, the long knives intersected and swung away, Yang Feng grabbed a step and stabbed, Lan Yu urgently turned sideways to avoid it, and hit Yang Feng with his shoulder, the two collided and retreated at the same time, returning to their respective starting points, staring at each other with weapons in hand.
The two of them have their own advantages and disadvantages, and Lan Yu's advantage is the addition of arms, so the attack distance is still higher than Yang Feng's.
Yang Feng's advantage is that he holds the gun in both hands, and his strength when attacking is greater than that of Lan Yu, who holds the hilt of the knife in both hands.
Even if he didn't rely on his own strange strength, under normal circumstances, he could still swing Lan Yu's knife and then stab at close range, but Lan Yu's cold weapon combat experience was too rich and his reaction speed was extremely fast, and it was not easy for him to succeed. As for picking up the knife to cut Yang Feng, don't pull this one, the speed of swinging the knife can never catch up with the fast stab, and the result of raising the knife to cut is that your knife has not fallen, and the bayonet has been pierced.
Sapphire actually chose the wrong weapon.
The knife suffers from the bayonet.
It was more cost-effective for him to make a short spear of the same length than with a knife.
Yang Feng suddenly rushed forward again and stabbed out with extreme speed.
The long knife in Lan Yu's hand provoked the bayonet.
But Yang Feng stabbed forward one after another at extremely short intervals, and Lan Yu blocked the bayonet and retreated step by step.
But at the same time, the distance is getting closer.
And every time it is blocked, it also expands the front space of Lanyu.
Yang Feng suddenly roared, jumped up and stabbed him in the shoulder, the blue jade hilt pushed up, but the bayonet still grazed his shoulder, and the two collided again. Immediately after that, Lan Yu roared, pushed Yang Feng away with all his strength, and at the same time strode back to open the distance, holding the knife with both hands and sweeping, Yang Feng retreated to dodge, Lan Yu took a step forward, the long knife in his hand was still sweeping, Yang Feng continued to dodge, and he continued to move forward. After taking three steps back, Yang Feng finally stabilized, and the rifle in his hand suddenly blocked Lan Yu's knife, and then took a step forward, and the butt of the rifle that slipped was in Lan Yu's chest.
The latter jerked back.
Yang Feng's rifle butt continued to smash, Lan Yu continued to retreat, and he continued to smash.
Smash three times in a row.
The steady hilt of the blue jade knife slammed into his chest, but it was blocked by the bulletproof plate, and at the same time, Yang Feng's rifle butt continued to smash him in the chest, without stopping for a moment, and he didn't even bother to turn the rifle and replace it with a bayonet.
In fact, he didn't have a chance to do that.
He couldn't leave any respite for Lanyu.
Whenever he pulled a little distance, it was time for Sapphire to fight back, and the butt of his spear kept falling on Sappy's chest at extremely short intervals.
The latter keeps retreating.
In the end, he finally stepped on the ground.
"In the first game, Yang Fengsheng won!"
The little princess holding the sign shouted happily.
Lan Yu, who fell into the ring, stood up immediately and looked angrily at Yang Feng, who was looking down on him, because Yang Feng controlled his strength, so he was not injured, and it was not worth mentioning that he could hold on for a long time if he fell at this height.
This guy is as strong as a brown bear, and he doesn't care about this damage.
"Liang Guogong, do you want me to go down to help you?"
Yang Feng said with a smile.
"No need, I'm not old enough to need help."
Lan Yu sneered.
However, he still had to slow down, so Yoshiko hurriedly put a chair for him, and Liang Guogong sat down on the chair and threw the knife to Yoshiko......
"Change a gun, cut it to be as long as he is."
He said.
He also understands that he suffers by using a knife.
Fortunately, he didn't say that he couldn't change it, he could also change a weapon, as long as it wasn't longer than Yang Feng's.
And Zhu Yuanzhang, who was obviously very old on the city tower, looked at it indifferently.
"Take a good look, in the future, the Shenji Battalion will also have new firearms, and it will also add spurs, these are all methods used by stingers, Ambassador Yang This is a real means to go into battle to kill the enemy, although it is not fancy, but it is the most useful."
He said slowly.
"Yes!"
The generals and soldiers around hurriedly shouted.
