258 Yuwen Chengdu

Wang Zhong's proposal was quickly approved by Yang Guang, and the ring was set up in the palace.

Yang Xuangan and a group of ministers had the intention to stop it, but it was a pity that Yang Guang insisted on going his own way.

The efficiency of the palace was beyond Wang Zhong's expectations, but a simple ring was set up in less than an hour, and Yang Guang even moved to watch Wang Zhong fight in person.

When Wang Zhong stood in the ring, he found that his opponent did not appear.

Before Yang Guang set up the ring, he issued a holy decree, and everyone could challenge Wang Zhong, but whether he lived or died, the winner could get the title of "The First Warrior of the Great Sui" and be crowned "Champion Hou".

"Champion Hou" is the title of the marquis that appeared in the Western Han Dynasty, taking the meaning of "the whole army of meritorious crowns", and the person who won this title is the world-famous "Huo Quai".

After the Han Dynasty, only the military generals with outstanding military achievements could obtain the title of "Champion Hou", and since the establishment of the Great Sui Dynasty, no one has obtained this honorable position.

Since Huo went to the Western Han Dynasty to be crowned the champion Hou, this title has become a legend, and every champion Hou is a person with outstanding military achievements and a powerful world!

Wang Zhong won the title of marquis, and the court was already dissatisfied, and the marquis of "Champion Marquis" pushed him to the forefront.

But it's another thing to really go to the ring to snatch the "Champion Hou"!

The title of "The First Warrior of the Great Sui" and the position of "Champion Hou" seem to be beautiful, but in fact they have no real power at all, but they have to go to the ring to fight for life and death, and this deal is very not cost-effective.

First of all, the title of "The First Warrior of the Great Sui" is not the first master in the world, and the gold content is much worse, and I am afraid that no one in the martial arts takes this "First Warrior" seriously.

Second, although the champion marquis is ranked as the second-class title of the prince and uncle, since the Han Dynasty, the title has become an empty title, with no feudal treatment and no military power in his hands.

Third, the venue of the ring is set in the palace, and most of the challengers, non-princes and nobles, and the children of the generals cannot be put into the ring, and these people are pampered, how can they fight to the death with Wang Zhong and show Yang Guang a monkey show.

Fourth, after all, Wang Zhong is the son of Laihu'er, whose prestige in the army is still very high, and he is in charge of the military power of the Pyongyang Provincial Water Army, and he is a powerful figure in the military.

Clear-eyed people also know that Wang Zhong is the heir of the Rongguo Mansion, and if he wins, he offends the Rongguo Gong and loses face, causing Wang Zhong to go to the ring for an hour, but no one challenges him.

Yang Guang also seemed to think of the problem, and then directly issued a holy decree, adding color to the fight!

"The general marquis is also the commander of the forbidden army!"

As soon as this holy decree was issued, the imperial court immediately went crazy, compared with the virtual title, the head of the forbidden army is a real military power, in charge of the 70,000 defenders of the capital, although the grade is not high, but it can be directly under the emperor Yang Guang, in the capital, even the prime minister of Shangshu Province has to give the head of the forbidden army a few faces.

The originally peaceful court was completely boiling because of Yang Guang's holy decree, and those court bigwigs began to move in private, and even the military began to move frequently.

Compared with real power, any political alliance is virtual, and Dugufeng, who originally supported Wang Zhong, began to act in private.

Soon Wang Zhong's first opponent came, and to Wang Zhong's surprise, it was not Yang Xuangan and Yuwen Valve's people, but Dugu Valve's Dugu Ce.

Duguce is the son of the lord Dugufeng, who was originally a little transparent in the court, but he didn't expect to be the first to jump out because of a "forbidden army manager".

It seems that the Dugu Valve is bound to win the "Forbidden Army Commander".

The four major valves of the Great Sui, except for the "Song valve" that sits in the south and is transcendent, the other three major valves are all active in the north, so there is naturally a competitive relationship.

Among them, "Li Valve" sits in the northern military center "Taiyuan", has to deal with foreign "Turkic" all the year round, holds military power, and is the head of the three valves.

The "Yuwen Valve" and the "Dugu Valve" were located in Kyoto, and although they were in the center of power, they had no military power in their hands.

Especially the "Dugu Valve", who was originally a relative on the throne, although he was closest to Yang Guang, he was also suspicious of him, and he never got the substantive military power, so he could only rely on the imperial power.

Originally, the position of "Commander of the Forbidden Army" was not so popular, but after the former governor retired in old age, the position has been vacant, and it is temporarily managed by Deputy Commander Yuwen Chengdu.

This time, Yang Guangwei conquered Goryeo and took away 50,000 troops of the forbidden army directly under him, but unfortunately there was nothing left in an avalanche.

After the commander of the forbidden army took office, he had the right to recruit soldiers, and he could blatantly install his own people on the throne, so as to completely control the 130,000 military power of the forbidden army.

Therefore, Duguce appeared in the ring, and his face was not good, and he was bound to win the position of "Commander of the Forbidden Army"!

"Are you going down by yourself, or will you be beaten by me!" Duguce was arrogant as soon as he came up, he may have been pampered since he was a child, and he had a wrong understanding of his own strength.

Wang Zhong didn't bother to talk nonsense, and rushed towards Duguce with an arrow step, almost in the blink of an eye, he came to Duguce's body and punched it out lightly.

Duguce originally thought that Wang Zhong was young and a soft persimmon, but he didn't expect him to be so fast, he didn't have time to react, and he was hit in the chest by Wang Zhong's fist, and the powerful impact made his facial features distort.

Duguce, who was hit, only felt that he had been hit by a mad giant elephant, and his body involuntarily flew out twenty meters, away from the ring, and when he fell to the ground, the bones of his whole body let out a painful groan.

Wang Zhong stood on the edge of the ring, and said to Dugu Ce with an innocent face: "Brother Dugu, I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to be so weak, you can't even take a move from me!

Dugu was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, and then he really vomited a mouthful of blood, but as soon as the blood was gone, his face looked a lot better.

Wang Zhong didn't kill him, but he just wanted to teach Duguce a lesson, don't be arrogant if you don't have that martial arts.

At the same time, Wang Zhong is also Liwei, telling everyone that although he is young, his strength is not weak, and it is best not to go on stage to show ugliness.

Sure enough, there are not many people in the ring next, most of them are representatives of military forces, and they are not very old, but they are all good players.

Wang Zhong fought with him one by one, and fought in the ring one by one, and gradually those court bigwigs also saw that Wang Zhong was strong in martial arts, and there were few opponents among his peers.

But let the characters of the higher generation go to the ring, it is right to win, and it is a joke to lose, these people who are in the court are all human spirits, and no one wants to be the first to eat crabs, they are all waiting for the other party to start.

Three hours later, there were no more people who came to challenge Wang Zhong, and Yang Guang seemed to be a little excited, and when he was about to go back to the palace to rest, a strong man like an iron tower stepped into the ring.

This strong man is two meters tall, his muscles are like bronze casting, and he is facing a marching wind.

"In Xiayuwen Chengdu, lead Your Excellency's high moves!"

The tower-like strong man is the first master of the younger generation of Yuwen Valve, the deputy head of the forbidden army, Yuwen Chengdu, and his arrival has attracted everyone's attention.
