In the Liangyi Palace, hundreds of sharp soldiers performed the Qin King Breaking Array Dance.

The sword and shield flickered, and the murderous aura was overwhelming.

Li Zhi looked at everything in front of him with a cold expression.

Empress Wu sat on the side, her expression gentle.

Li Xuan, dressed in red clothes and gold armor, sat among the generals, and did not drink, just sat silently.

King Qin broke the formation and danced, and hundreds of sharp soldiers slowly retreated.

According to the usual practice, it should be Shangyuan Yale next, but I don't know why, Ruishi and the dancer didn't come up.

Countless people felt the solemnity of the atmosphere in the hall in an instant, and they all slowly put down their wine glasses.

Li Zhi suddenly smiled gently, pressed his hand on the table, and placed a wine bottle next to him, he looked at Ashid Yuanzhen behind him and said: "Ashina Qing, I know that the grassland has always respected the strong, I heard that many of the Turkic dancers who came this time are warriors who have participated in the Grassland Damu Conference?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Asid Yuanzhen stood up and gave his hand seriously.

Li Zhi said calmly: "In this case, how about replacing the warrior dance with a fight between the grassland warriors and the Tang Dynasty?" ”

Asid Yuanzhen's eyes couldn't help but stare and his breath was heavy.

He had long felt that all the plans of the Turks today had obviously fallen into the eyes of the emperor and the ministers of the Tang Dynasty.

Their original plan to provoke the competition after the dance was told in advance by the emperor.

In this way, it also means that when the Tang Qunchen figured out this, they had already thought of a coping strategy.

Coupled with the deterrence of the King of Nanchang of Taiji Palace, Pei Xingjian and Xue Rengui, it is very difficult for the Turks to get out of Taiji Palace safely today.

Although many people can't see through this, in the center of the hall, Ashide Yuanzhen has already been extremely dignified, but he still seriously arched his hand and said: "If you accept the call, dare not obey the order."

Your Majesty, it's just that the competition between ordinary warriors is not exciting enough, and the minister has one of the strongest warriors in the grassland, and he is willing to fight with the young talents of the Tang Dynasty. ”

"King of Nanchang." Li Zhi turned his head directly to look at Li Xuan, not giving Asid Yuanzhen a chance to speak at all.

Li Xuan, dressed in red clothes and gold armor, stood up and solemnly arched his hand: "Your Majesty." ”

"Did you hear Ashinaqing's words, would you like to?" Although Li Zhi was talking in Li Xuan, his eyes kept staring at Ashide Yuanzhen, smiling, but Ashide Yuanzhen kept breaking out in a cold sweat.

Asid Yuanzhen didn't even speak, and the emperor had already guessed their purpose.

Thinking of King Nanchang's strange behavior today, and ten days ago, he began to recuperate, Asid Yuanzhen knew in his heart that it would be difficult today.

……

"I don't know who the grassland is, what merit, what title, what ability?" Li Xuan turned to look at Asted Yuanzhen, with a hint of contempt in his slightly drooping eyes.

As if to say, what cat and dog are also worthy of fighting him?

Ashid Yuanzhen had to give up his hand again, and said: "It's the first Batulu in the grassland, Ashina Yuangui, Ashina Yuangui has won the top spot in the Grassland Damu Conference for three consecutive years, please give the prince advice." ”

"There hasn't been a war on the prairie for many years, it's a pity." Li Xuan's expression was cold, and he said calmly: "In that case, let's bet something." ”

Ashide Yuanzhen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and arched his hand: "Lord Wang, please speak." ”

"The twenty-four Turkic tribes, a total of 16,000 war horses are offered to Your Majesty, this king feels a little little, how about taking another 8,000 war horses, this king borrows flowers to offer Buddha, dedicated to Your Majesty, a total of 24,000 war horses, each tribe out of 1,000, I don't know if it is possible?" Li Xuan opened his mouth lightly, and then looked at Li Zhi again.

"Good!" Asid Yuanzhen agreed without the slightest hesitation.

"I add a plug for the king of Nanchang, if you win, I will give out 8,000 war horses, or the equivalent of gold." Li Zhi smiled and said, "As for the king of Nanchang, he will repay me for the rest of his life." ”

"Repay the king's will on the golden platform, and carry the jade dragon to die for the king!"

Li Xuan bowed heavily and said with a solemn expression: "The minister is willing to break his bones for His Majesty." ”

"Alright." Li Zhi raised his eyes, his expression was extremely satisfied, and at the same time he couldn't help but ponder carefully: Repay the king's intention on the golden platform, and carry the jade dragon to die for the king!

"Yes, let me see the skills of Twenty-Seven Lang with my own eyes today." Li Zhi sighed with emotion, to be honest, he really had never seen Li Xuan make a move with his own eyes.

"Your Majesty will not be disappointed." Li Xuan arched his hand, then looked at Ashide Yuanzhen, and asked with a cold gaze: "The competition has been decided, but how is the way, bow and arrow, horseback riding, wrestling, or something else?" ”

Ashide Yuanzhen tried his best to calm himself down, and then arched his hand and said: "The palace hall can't be used, the bow and arrow are too inconvenient, and wrestling seems to be a little inappropriate for the prince. ”

"It seems that the Turks know a lot about this king!" Li Xuan's expression became solemn, he nodded, and said lightly and contemptuously: "Since you want to send you to death, this king will also fulfill you, whether you live or die, each has its own destiny." ”

"Okay." Asid Yuanzhen directly agreed.

"That's it." The emperor directly made the final decision, and the battle of killing was about to ring in the palace.

None of the countless ministers inside and outside the main hall objected.

Datang, the world's first power.

The Turks, the heart of the restoration of the country is hot.

If you don't move the army, you can do it, and as soon as you move the army, it will be a direct battle of hundreds of thousands of troops.

In this way, a battle above the main hall can give both sides a big enough opportunity to win a big enough head start before the war starts.

The winner of either side can gain the initiative to the greatest extent, and this initiative is likely to be the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers and even hundreds of thousands of people in wartime.

No one can retreat.

……

Twenty Turkic warriors, twenty Tang Rui.

In the temple, there was a fight, and two wrestled in pairs.

Within a narrow range, no one can retreat.

I have to admit that among the Turks, there are still some good players, but unfortunately, there are only four of the twenty Turkic warriors who can really beat the Tang Ruishi.

Countless foreign envoys in the hall saw everything in their eyes, and couldn't help but sigh lightly in their hearts.

The Turks have been preparing for so long, but they are still not the opponents of the Tang Dynasty.

Many people have completely dismissed their intention to get involved in this matter from the bottom of their hearts, and even turned their attention to the Turks.

If there is a chance, it is better to bite the Turks hard.

The victory has been decided, and the fighters are out.

Ashid Yuanzhen looked at Ashina Wen Fu, Ashina Wen Fu turned slightly sideways, and a sturdy man with a body as high as eight feet walked out.

Step by step, he deliberately slowed down, but the pace was very heavy, and the faces of the ministers inside and outside the hall changed at the same time.

"The minister is in the capital to protect the mansion Si Cao to join the army, Ashina Yuangui see Your Majesty, Your Majesty has a long life." Ashina Yuangui fell to his knees heavily, and the momentum was amazing.

"Yes, yes, a warrior." Li Zhi laughed, looked at Ashina Yuangui and asked, "Aiqing, I don't know if you have the idea of staying in Chang'an, I can let you serve under General Zuo Xiaozhonglang." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, but I still hope to be able to return to the grassland, but my body is too big to be restrained." Ashina Yuangui's words were buzzing, but the faces of the Tang Dynasty ministers in the court changed at the same time.

The body is too big to be restrained.

Are you talking about yourself, or about all the Turks.

Everyone knows that there are nearly one million people in the entire DTZ, and the Tang Dynasty is divided into 24 states, which almost dismembered the Turks.

But in this way, some people say that they cannot be restrained, because they cannot be subject to the laws governing these 24 states.

The emperor's face was stunned for a moment, then he smiled gently, then turned his head to look at Li Xuan, and said, "Twenty-seven Lang, greet this warrior from the grassland for me." ”

"Commandment." Li Xuan solemnly bowed his hand.

"Your Majesty, please use weapons." Ashina Yuangui did not hide it at all, and his murderous aura rushed straight at Li Xuan.

"Accurate!" Li Zhi waved his hand gently.

Ashina Yuangui immediately looked at Ashina Wen Fu in the rear.

Ashina Wen Fu waved his hand slightly, and then the two Turkic chieftains behind him stood up, walked to the hall, bowed heavily to the emperor, and then retreated to the entrance of the palace.

The Qianniu Weilang general at the entrance of the hall looked up at the emperor, Li Zhi waved his hand lightly, and the Qianniu Weilang waved his hand to the side.

The two Qianniuwei were already walking outside with the two Turkic chieftains.

Soon, the two Turkic chieftains had returned, each with a heavy five-foot-long hammer in their hands.

The hammer covered with barbs was almost exhausted when one person held one tightly.

Subconsciously, many people looked at Li Xuan with a hint of worry in their eyes.

Liu Renliang, Ouyang Tong, Zhao Gong, Di Renjie, Qin Ming, Lai Sui, Li Xian, Li Dan, and even Li Jingxuan, Liu Xianli, Dou Xuande and others all looked at Li Xuan worriedly.

Only Xue Rengui, Li Jingjia, Xiao Siye and others had calm faces.

The emperor on the high platform was even more smiling.

Ashina Gu Dulu sat behind Ashina Wen Fu, his eyes glancing upwards with a solemn expression.

Then he looked at the clansmen around him, and saw that many of them showed a relaxed look at this time, and their expressions were heavy for a moment.

Today's matter, Datang has obviously been preparing for a long time, how can it be so easy to get it.

Although it is said that before today, the Turks obtained a lot of information about Li Xuan from various sources.

Cavalry battle, the king of Nanchang personally fought on the battlefield, and there were many Turks who fought side by side with Li Xuan on the Tuyuhun battlefield.

Two years ago, he had already galloped across the battlefield of tens of thousands of people.

Now, two years later, the people are stronger and more experienced, and if they really want to ride and fight, they may not have much chance of winning.

It's the same with archery, Datang has never lacked archery players.

In particular, there is also Xue Rengui who is here to determine the Tianshan Mountain with one stone, who dares to be careless.

Although Li Xuan usually doesn't see him use arrows, he fights on the battlefield, but whoever has a little attainment and can survive is not a good hand with arrows.

In fact, the Turks are most confident in wrestling, but wrestling can't kill people, what they want today is to kill people.

Then there is only infantry combat, Li Xuan, who is good at using a lance and a sword, and Ashina Yuangui, who is good at using a double hammer, he is dead.

But is that really the case?

……

Ashina Yuangui held two heavy hammers in his hand and bowed heavily to the emperor on the high platform.

Although he looked clumsy, his senses were extremely acute, and he could feel it, and at this moment, he didn't know how many masters had locked their eyes on him today.

Now in the Liangyi Palace, almost every Tang Dynasty general has a long sword and horizontal knife on his side.

Even many civil servants are the same, how difficult it is to do what they want to do.

Not to mention, there are opponents.

Ashina Yuangui stood up and looked at Li Xuan calmly.

Li Xuan turned sideways and bowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty." ”

"Hmm!" The Emperor nodded lightly and looked at the door of the hall on the right.

The next moment, the two Qianniuwei had already moved forward at the same time, and the two of them walked in front of Li Xuan at the same time holding a black box.

Li Xuan took a deep breath and picked it gently.

The next moment, the lid opened.

Immediately, a nine-foot-long dark gold dragon pattern halberd appeared in front of everyone.

Li Xuan stretched out his hand and shook it with one palm, and in an instant, the heavy halberd had been lifted out of the box and appeared in front of everyone.

At this moment, all breathing stopped.
