Chapter 31 Have you ever heard of a tug-of-war with a cow?
The voice of the Great Chu Prince sounded in the Taiji Hall.
This made the faces of the hundred officials in the Ming Dynasty extremely ugly.
The prince of Da Chu almost didn't say directly that he was here to seek revenge.
Seeking justice for the previous Great Chu envoys?
Today's competition, I'm afraid it's not that simple!
Baiguan couldn't help but start worrying in his heart, and looked at the emperor sitting on the dragon chair.
But seeing that the emperor just smiled slightly, he said: "The envoys of Great Chu insulted me before the Ming Dynasty, and my Ming Dynasty only punished me slightly." ”
"As for what the Great Chu Prince said, if there is something that offends me Haihan, I will also send it back to the Great Chu Prince."
"If it's a competition to be held later, my Ming Empire has something to offend, and the prince of Dachu shouldn't be in a hurry."
Xiang Ying, the prince of Great Chu, smiled faintly, he was not worried, he knew that Emperor Daming was bluffing with himself.
With the civil and military level of the Ming Empire, it is far inferior to his Great Chu Empire.
Emperor Daming said that, but he was just pretending in front of himself.
"Naturally not, winning or losing depends on their own abilities."
"By the way, I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of your country, Chen Changfeng, has been performing extremely well recently, why didn't you see him come over today?"
"Isn't it scared?" Xiang Ying smiled slightly.
The members of the Great Chu Mission behind him burst into laughter.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, even if Chen Changfeng is dazzling, it is only dazzling in the Ming Empire."
"If you go to my Great Chu Empire, it is estimated that you can't even compare to a three-year-old child, and the minister feels that he is afraid and dare not come."
"That Chen Changfeng finally made a name for himself, if he was easily defeated by the people of my Great Chu Mission today, then where would the face of the Great Ming Empire go?"
The ridicule of the members of the Great Chu Mission made the faces of the Ming officials in the Taiji Hall very ugly.
But at this moment they did not dare to speak.
The Great Chu Mission must have come prepared, and if he and the others spoke rashly, they might be taking advantage of the Great Chu Mission's intentions.
"Don't talk nonsense, isn't it just to compete, how to compare, you draw the next line, and we will follow." The third prince had a short temper, and because of his previous loss to Chen Changfeng, this made him hate everything related to Chen Changfeng.
Including someone mentioning Chen Changfeng in front of him.
"This must be His Royal Highness the Third Prince of the Ming Empire, I heard that a few days ago, you were knocked out by Chen Changfeng in the ring."
"If I'm not mistaken, the third prince is known as the god of war in the army, and that Chen Changfeng doesn't seem to even have martial arts, how can this be ......?"
"Shut up, do the people of your Great Chu Mission only play tricks?" The sad past of the third prince was mentioned by Xiang Ying again.
At this moment, he was angry and rushed to the crown, and he couldn't wait to swallow Xiang Ying, the prince of Great Chu in front of him.
Seeing that the three princes were furious, Xiang Ying was still smiling, and then arched his hand with the three princes: "Since the three princes are so excited, they are obviously very confident in their skills, so let's just put Wenbi in the back and Wubi in the front." ”
"You're afraid of you!" The third prince said angrily.
"The Three Princes can't!" Prime Minister Yao Xiaoren blocked the exit, but it was already too late.
Yao Xiaoren had already guessed Xiang Ying's plan.
First of all, he used absolute force to deter the Ming Dynasty ministers, so that everyone was completely afraid of the Great Chu Mission in front of them.
Even the Great Chu Mission will put forward a request that when the martial arts are compared, life and death will be irrelevant.
The skills of the three princes are indeed good, and when he competed with Chen Changfeng before, Yao Xiaoren also saw the carelessness of the three princes, so he was defeated by Chen Changfeng.
But Xiang Ying, the prince of Great Chu, would never make meaningless suggestions.
Although Yao Xiaoren didn't notice who was coming from the Great Chu Mission, it would definitely not be as simple as it seemed.
The three princes and the Great Chu envoy directly competed in martial arts, if they didn't get it right......
"Father, the Great Chu envoy bullied me and there is no one in the Ming Dynasty, and my sons are willing to fight with the Great Chu."
"The last general will fight." The three princes and the emperor spoke, and many military generals in the court also came out to ask for their lives.
The emperor's eyes fell on the third prince Chen Wu and the generals who asked for their lives.
Although the Ming Empire has always been inferior to the Great Chu Empire, the bloody nature of the soldiers of the Ming Empire has never been wiped out.
"Since the prince of Da Chu wants to advance the martial arts, I will let you go, but I don't know how to fight this martial arts, how can the prince of Da Chu fight?" The emperor's eyes were slightly downcast, and he asked Xiang Ying.
"Has His Majesty the Emperor ever heard of a tug-of-war with a cow?" Xiang Ying said lightly, the corners of her mouth hooked up with a slightly meaningful smile.
The emperor, of course, had heard of tug-of-war with oxen.
In the Great Chu Empire, tug-of-war with cattle was a very popular activity.
To put it simply, it is a comparison of strength between people and oxen.
The ox is wrapped around the neck with a rope, and the other rope is held in the hand of the cow puller.
One person and one cow compete in the opposite direction.
More often than not, of course, the ox dragged the person away.
There were even people who were dragged to death by cattle on the ground.
"Do you want to be a tug-of-war with a cow?" The emperor was expressionless.
"If the Ming Empire is afraid of ......"
"Okay, I promise you, come to someone, come and ......"
"No, we brought our own cattle for the competition." Xiang Ying interrupted the emperor with a smile.
The emperor's face was slightly gloomy, knowing that this Ying had already planned today's competition.
Even the cattle were brought from Dachu.
……
Five sturdy bulls were herded into the palace grounds.
The emperor and all the officials also came here at this moment.
Looking at the sturdy bull in front of him, the faces of many officials in Daming immediately became ugly.
The strength of a bull is generally about 2,000 catties, and the five bulls in front of him are sturdy and must have at least 3,000 catties of strength.
If the bull goes crazy again, it is estimated that it can reach 4,000 catties of strength in a short time.
Who can pull this bull?
"This is the Jade Emperor Ox of the Great Chu Empire, the strength is about three thousand catties, our first competition is to compare who can pull the cow backwards."
"Of course, if you have the strength, you can choose two more Jade Emperor Cows." Xiang Ying, the prince of Great Chu, said with a smile.
This competition with Niu Tug-of-War is something that Xiang Ying had planned in advance before setting off for Daming.
Tug-of-war with cattle was a regular activity in the Great Chu Empire.
They are very experienced with this.
Knowing how to pull the rope won't let the bull run wild.
But the people of the Ming Empire are not necessarily.
Once a bull goes berserk, its strength is almost twice as strong as it is normal, and pulling one cow is equivalent to pulling two.
At that time, the people sent by the Ming Empire, even if they are not dragged to death by the bull on the ground, will make the Ming Empire lose face.
"By the way, I forgot to say one thing, we need to tie the rope around the waist in this competition with the cow tug-of-war, so that no one will say that the rope will slip off at that time, and the competition will not count." Xiang Ying added again.
"This is a competition, isn't this a human life?"
"Tie the rope around your waist, and when the time comes, you won't be able to pull the ox, won't you be dragged by the ox?"
The Ming official instantly understood Xiang Ying's plan, and his face was extremely ugly.
The emperor looked at the five Jade Emperor Oxen in front of him, and his face instantly became gloomy.
The competition with the bull tug-of-war, the emperor can bear it.
But to tie the rope around your waist is to put your life in the hands of the ox.
Moreover, the emperor did not believe that these people in the Great Chu Mission would not use any small means when pulling cattle.
If that's the case, even if the person who participated in the competition in his Ming Empire was lucky and saved his life, then he was dragged by a cow on the ground?
That scene......
"It's just a competition, if the Ming Empire is afraid, just admit defeat, and this prince will not embarrass you." Xiang Ying waved his hand indifferently.
Behind him, there was a burst of laughter from the Great Chu Mission again.
