Chapter 26
"Afraid? Princess Ningyu is joking! I, the Tang Dynasty, are not afraid at all!" the eldest prince Tang Long shouted directly.
"Yes, how could I, Da Tang, be afraid of you, Da Chu?"
Led by Tang Long, a group of generals came out one after another to confront Chu Ningyu.
Chu Ningyu sneered: "Very good! Since you are not afraid, let's start! Emperor Tang, do you come first, or do I, the Great Chu, come first?"
"Princess Ningyu, it was you, the Great Chu, who proposed the martial arts fight, so you, the Great Chu, should lift the cauldron first!" Emperor Tang said slowly.
Although there were constant disputes among the seven kingdoms, it was common to lift cauldrons. However, all the countries had raised cauldrons so many times, but they had never lifted a huge cauldron. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty wanted to see what Da Chu was capable of.
Tang Yu did not step forward this time, because weightlifting was not his strong point, and since he was half drunk now, there was no need to step forward to establish his presence.
After traveling through time, Tang Yu really wanted to see how abnormal the strength of the ancients was.
Regarding lifting the tripod, Tang Yu is not afraid. As a modern man, he has the means to compete head-on with Da Chu.
Tang Long hummed: "Yes, you big Chu will come first!"
Although Tang Long was extremely powerful, he was still under great pressure when facing the giant cauldron. He did not believe that Da Chu could lift the giant cauldron.
"Okay, then I, the Great Chu, will come first!" Chu Ningyu did not give in.
"Since ancient times, no one has ever been able to lift a gigantic cauldron. Da Chu is just trying to be mysterious!"
"Who says it's not the case! I think Da Chu is just showing off. Wait until they can't lift the huge cauldron and see how I mock them!"
For a time, all the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty whispered, they did not believe that the great Chu could lift a huge cauldron.
Chu Ningyu smiled coldly: "Champion, I leave the fighting to you, you can only win but not lose!"
"Your Highness, there is no such thing as failure with me!"
A sneer sounded, and a man in a black cloak stood up.
As soon as he stepped forward, the man took off his black cloak, revealing a face with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. What was shocking was that this was actually a young man in his twenties.
"It's him! It's him!"
After seeing the young man's face clearly, all the generals of the Tang Dynasty shouted angrily, and the air was instantly filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Seeing so many generals losing their composure, Tang Yu asked inexplicably: "Who is this person?"
"His Royal Highness, he is Ye Yuanba, the champion of Chu. It was Ye Yuanba who led the invasion three years ago. In less than ten days, our Tang Dynasty was completely defeated and the first line of defense, Jingzhou City, was lost!" Prime Minister Meng Shize looked solemn.
said.
Hearing this, Tang Yu looked shocked: "What? He is the champion of Da Chu, Hou Ye Yuanba?"
Through his memory, Tang Yu learned that Ye Yuanba was the son of the Grand Marshal of the Kingdom of Chu. Ye Yuanba was born with supernatural powers since he was a child. At the age of only fourteen, he killed a tiger that descended from the mountain with one punch, thus becoming famous in the Seven Kingdoms.
When he was eighteen years old, Ye Yuanba joined the military camp and made many military exploits. He conquered six kingdoms for Chu and successfully captured numerous cities.
Three years ago, Ye Yuanba personally took command and invaded the Tang Dynasty. He broke through Jingzhou City, the first line of defense of the Tang Dynasty with lightning speed, and was awarded the title of Champion Marquis by the Emperor of Chu.
This year, Ye Yuanba was only twenty-six years old, and he had already been granted the rank of Langjuxu. Among the many generals in Dachu, he was a first-class official.
"That's right! He is the champion of the Great Chu Dynasty!" Meng Shize said in a deep voice.
Tang Yu exclaimed: "At the age of twenty-six, he is granted the title of Xu, and is known as the champion. He is really powerful and terrifying!"
In Tang Yu's impression, there were only a few people in history who sealed the wolf's place in Xu, the most famous being Huo Qubing, the famous general of the Western Han Dynasty.
Huo Qubing had great achievements in his life and was a typical national hero of China. When he was just a teenager, he had been given the title of Xu. He was a rare proud man in history.
It is a pity that Huo Qubing was only twenty-four years old when he passed away. Otherwise, Huo Qubing would have left more chapters in the long history.
"I didn't expect that the champion of Da Chu would come in person!" Emperor Tang's face gradually became serious.
Just now he was wondering how Da Chu had the courage to threaten to lift a huge cauldron. When he saw Ye Yuanba, he understood instantly.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty hated Ye Yuanba deeply. If Ye Yuanba had not personally taken command three years ago, the Tang Dynasty would not have lost the first line of defense, Jingzhou City.
Ye Yuanba looked at Emperor Tang and said without any fear: "Hahahaha, Emperor Tang, this competition is related to the national prestige of the two countries. As the champion of Chu, I naturally want to come to control the situation!"
