Chapter 554
554 Extreme madness! Announce to the world!
In a sense, the defense line of Tian Yue city, the capital of Yue country, could indeed be considered as impregnable.
The Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs and the governor of tianyue, ning Qi, led 200000 troops to guard the 50-mile city wall. They were equipped with brand new iron armor on a large scale, and there was also a certain number of new troops with more than 10000 rifles.
Not only that, but there were also more than 500 howitzers and all kinds of artillery shells.
Of course, such an Army would not be able to fight against the special Warriors of the New Kingdom and stupa mountain. They might not even be able to fight against the hell Legion, but they would definitely be able to fight against the ordinary Army of the New Kingdom. Moreover, they would have a significant advantage.
However, almost half of Ying Wuming’s Army was made up of the hell Corps and more than 1000 were in the air.
Shen Lang’s furious tide city was still not developing fast enough. The path of combining technology and ancient civilization was correct, and many advanced weapons were already in the laboratory. For example, a brand new Hellfire bomb, a brand new Nightmare rock bomb, and so on.
However, it was a pity that these weapons were still in the laboratory and could not be mass-produced, let alone equipped with the Army on a large scale.
Therefore, the 200000 troops of Yue country still couldn’t stop Ying Wuming.
....................................
In the Royal Palace of Yue State, there was no morning court session today. Most of the officials were at home, only a dozen important officials and Ning Zheng were in the study.
some people said that the Wu, Chu, and Yue kingdoms are Emperor Shen Lang’s burden. There is no need for the Three Kingdoms ‘imperial courts to exist. Or perhaps, the Three Kingdoms should move the Imperial courts to raging tide city. “But I don’t agree with this,” Ning Zheng said slowly.”Raging tide city is our temporary imperial capital, and it represents the peak of the great Qian Empire. However, the manpower and resources of Wu, Chu, and Yue are the foundation of the great Qian Empire. If we leave, who will continue to send food, materials, talents, and soldiers to the great Qian Empire?”
This was true. Raging tide city was originally a trading city, but now it had completely become an industrial center, a Research Center of ancient civilization and Science and Technology civilization. Originally, there were only 60000 people, but now it had soared to 300000.
In just over a year, the Wu, Chu, and Yue countries had sent hundreds of thousands of people, countless food and materials to raging tide city.
Not only the Furious tide city, but also the tens of thousands of people on the heavenly Wind Island and nearly 100000 people on the gold Mountain Island were all supported by the Wu, Chu, and Yue kingdoms. The Furious tide city was no longer able to produce anything.
There were more than a few hundred factories under Shen Lang’s command, and there were more than 200000 craftsmen of all kinds. They had produced countless armors, weapons, and so on. It was not enough to rely on the steel and metal of Jinshan Island. They still relied on the support of the Wu, Chu, and Yue countries.
There was also the new army that the great Qian Empire was currently training. The total number of soldiers would exceed 300000, and they would still rely on the manpower provided by the Wu, Chu, and Yue empires.
In the face of the enemy’s Special Forces and secret army, Shen Lang’s original plan of using rifles and machine guns had been completely changed.
Due to the impact of the comet, he had obtained an astronomical number of nightmare stone crystals.
The ancient civilization only knew how to use nightmare stones to make ancient crossbows. Even the Dragon’s power firing device was still in the shape of a giant crossbow. Even a strategic weapon like Dragon’s regret was still in the shape of a giant arrow.
On the other hand, Shen lang planned to go beyond the modern rifles, machine guns, and artillery to create nightmare stone rifles, cannons, and cannonballs. In his plan, there was even the existence of the nightmare stone aircraft.
This was the peak of the cooperation between the technological civilization and the ancient civilization.
Using the design concept of modern Science and Technology civilization and using the ancient civilization’s nightmare stone as an energy source, they would create the most powerful weapon.
As soon as these weapons appeared on the market and were equipped on a large scale ...
In that case, whether it was stupa mountain or the Empire of Great Yan’s Secret army, it would not be a problem.
Hell’s armor, ancient armor, they were all destroyed.
However, it was a pity that these new weapons combined from the ancient civilization and the technological civilization were all in the laboratory stage. They were even in the blueprint stage. It would take a long time to equip them on a large scale.
As the saying goes, the future is bright, but the process is full of twists and turns.
Once these weapons were manufactured on a large scale and equipped to the new army of the great Qian Empire, Shen lang would not need to take the risk. The new army could just push through.
And all of this still depended on the manpower and material Foundation of the Wu, Chu and Yue three countries.
we have hundreds of thousands of troops, but we can’t stop Ying Wuming’s tens of thousands of men. Why is that? ” Ning Zheng said, ” this is the result of the Empire of Yan and the Supreme forces suppressing the other countries for a long time. They tried their best to shut down and monopolize the ancient civilization. As time passed, they made us weak. His Majesty Jiang Li wanted to break this seal and free the advanced civilization. That’s why he met with a disaster and delayed this great process for more than twenty years. Now, His Majesty Shen lang has taken on this great mission and is leading us forward.”
“Does Ying Wuming think that as long as he holds us as hostages, he can threaten His Majesty Shen lang and stop the great Yan Empire from rising? This is too laughable.” Ning Zheng sneered, ” King Chu, King Wu, and I have already made up our minds. We can die at any time. The foundation of the development of the great Qian Empire is not the Three Kings or any of you here. It is the tens of millions of people of the Three Kingdoms. As long as they are here, the rise of the great Yan Empire will be unstoppable. Because the tens of millions of people of the Three Kingdoms are United and have a strong will.
“My so-called officials, don’t care how close Ying Wuming’s Army is or whether his air Legion will reach the top of the palace in the next 15 minutes. Let’s continue to work. We must seize every second to rise the Empire!”
“Yes, Your Majesty,” the dozen or so ministers knelt down.
Then, the Bureau of Military Affairs, the Board of Ministers, and the six ministries continued to get busy. They had endless things to do.
..............................
Ying Wuming’s more than 1000 snow Eagle troops were flying at an altitude of 3000 meters, forming dozens of big formations, which really covered the sky. All the people in tianyue city could see it clearly. There were countless black spots in the sky like locusts.
The world had changed, and many things that had never been seen or heard of before had appeared. The appearance of Emperor Jiang Li last time caused a great change in the world. This time, due to Shen Lang’s appearance, the world changed drastically again.
More than 1000 air troops under Ying Wuming’s command were getting closer and closer to Tian Yue city. Soon, they would fly over the line in the sky and enter the air territory of Tian Yue city.
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the sky.
“Ying Wuming, come out for a talk?”
After that, the supersonic flying beast shot out from the clouds. Shen lang and Chou Yao ‘er were still riding on it.
To let the Super League fight against an Army of more than a thousand snow Condors? That was almost impossible, no matter how powerful it was.
After all, it was only an supersonic flying beast, not a legendary dragon.
Ying Wuming was stunned. That was Shen Lang’s voice? Since when was he able to make such a loud sound?
Shen lang was too weak, so his voice was weak. It could not even reach a distance of 100 meters. Therefore, dumb’s so-called artificial loudspeaker was used every time. Now, his voice could be heard in the entire sky?
This was because Shen Lang’s nightmare stone megaphone had finally been successfully manufactured. The principle of this thing was very simple, which was to amplify the sound waves. Moreover, the drawings in the ancient books were clear, but it had only been successfully developed recently.
Of course, Ying Wuming knew clearly that Shen lang had disappeared in the stone coffin in the ancient square. Even though he knew that the scourge would live for thousands of years, he could not help but wonder if Shen lang had completely disappeared this time.
Who would have thought that he would appear again in just a few days. He was really a disaster for tens of thousands of years.
“Ying Wuming, senior brother, let’s have a talk.” Shen lang shouted again.
Ying Wuming rode on the ancient Vulture and flew up to an altitude of 11000 meters to meet Shen lang.
On the other hand, Shen lang was riding on the Super at an altitude of 12000 meters. Anyway, he had to maintain a safe distance at all times.
After more than half a year, the two of them finally met again.
senior brother Ying Wuming, ” Shen lang said, ” can we not attack Tian Yue city or the Royal Palace? ”
“Do you think it’ll work?” Ying Wuming said,”brother Shen lang, do you think you are allowed to be so unscrupulous?” You killed my younger brother Ying wuque, toyed with my new Qian Kingdom and stupa mountain in the palm of your hand, stole our Dragon’s regret, and blew up our ancient ruins. All of these things are really unforgettable, so we have to take revenge, a cruel revenge.”
Shen lang said,”so what if you killed hundreds of thousands of people in Tian Yue city?” So what if you’ve captured Ning Zheng and all the officials of Yue country?”
Ying Wuming asked,’vent your anger? Vent his anger? I can’t?”
“But in your heart, benefits come first, right?” Shen lang said.
“Shut up, don’t say anything.” it’s not too late for you to talk after I’ve killed hundreds of thousands of your men, ” Ying Wuming said. it’s not too late for you to talk after I’ve captured Ning Zheng, Zhang Ji, and the others.
Shen lang said slowly,”senior brother, how’s the dragon egg?” Have you guys hatched?”
As soon as he said that, Ying Wuming’s expression changed drastically. He quickly looked around, afraid that someone had heard him. Fortunately, Shen Lang’s voice was very soft, and he was the only one who heard it.
“It didn’t hatch, did it?” if there are no accidents, ” Shen lang said, ” you won’t be able to hatch this dragon egg even after a few decades or a few centuries.
Shen lang continued, ” I made a deal with the Empire of Great Yan last time. The Empire of Great Yan performed an ultra-long-range strategic attack and killed tens of thousands of your men at the bottom of the king Kong peak. This is the price the Empire of Great Yan has to pay. And what price did I pay? Does Shixiong know?”
Ying Wuming didn’t reply. He knew that the Lian Prince and Shen lang had a secret deal, but he didn’t know the details of the deal as there were less than five people who knew about it.
He was also very confused. What did Shen lang do? It was actually worth the Empire of Yan paying such a huge price to launch an ultra-long-range strategic attack.
Shen lang said,”the great Yan Empire asked me to open a box, a very special box.” I used to be very, very curious about what was in this box. Countless scholars in the Empire of Great Yan spent decades but still couldn’t open it, because it involved an extremely difficult arithmetic problem that only I could solve. It’s just like how I used the law of four colors to help you open the ancient ruins in the southern sea.”
“Continue,” Ying Wuming said.
Shen lang said, ” I’m curious about something. The Empire of Great Yan had already confirmed my identity a long time ago. At that time, I had yet to destroy the Xue family. At that time, they could have captured me to unlock the box at any time. Why didn’t they do that? why did they want me to open the box now? ”
Ying Wuming already had an answer in his mind and was slightly moved.
Shen lang said, ” after opening this box, I can feel that it is empty. There are no treasures inside. Then, I made a bold guess that this box was used to hatch dragon eggs. The reason why it has to be opened now is because the comet has just hit Ding Yuan city and brought along a dragon egg. Therefore, there’s no use in opening the box early. Senior brother Ying, you must take good care of this dragon egg and not let the great Yan Empire take it away.”
Shen lang! Ying Wuming’s eyes twitched. Shen lang, what does this have to do with my battle today? ”
Shen lang said,”senior brother, you guys deceived sect master Ren the last time, and he already has a grudge.” There has to be absolute strategic trust between you and stupa mountain. You have only concealed a secret base and it has already made him so angry. If they found out that you hid a dragon egg from them, what would happen?”
Ying Wuming’s face turned cold. Shen lang finally threatened him with this matter.
It was really amazing. When Shen lang was captured, even when his left hand was about to be cut off, he did not use this matter to threaten Ying Guang and his son. Now, in order to protect Tian Yue city and Ning Zheng, he finally took out this chip.
Once sect master Ren found out that Ying Guang and his son had hidden the dragon egg, the strategic mutual trust between them would almost be non-existent.
“This matter is too important. Once sect master Ren finds out about it, the rift between stupa mountain and sect master Ren will be irreparable.” unless you are willing to hand over the dragon egg to sect leader Ren, ” Shen lang said. but are you willing to do so? ”
Ying Wuming said, ” there’s nothing to be unwilling about. I’m not only the Crown Prince of the new Qian Kingdom. I’m also the successor of stupa mountain. You also know that Princess Budur has betrayed sect leader Ren, so no one can replace me. So, what if we give the dragon egg to sect leader Ren? In the end, didn’t it still end up in my hands?”
“Really?” Shen lang sneered, ” how can you be sure that sect leader Ren doesn’t have any other thoughts? or that he wants to take over the family? ” He should be able to live for a very, very long time. As long as he can find a way to cure Ren Yingying and let her give birth to a son, then stupa mountain may not be yours in the future. It will be given to the grandson of sect leader Ren.”
Shen lang was right about what Ying Wuming was worried about the most. This situation was not uncommon. Zhu Biao, the Crown Prince, died in the early years of the Ming Dynasty. However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not pass the throne to his other sons. Instead, he passed it to the Grand-grandson, Zhu Yuncheng.
Shen lang said, ” so, don’t say things like giving the dragon egg to sect leader Ren. You can’t bear to do so. This is your life and is your biggest bargaining chip to take over the eastern world.
Ying Wuming said, ” Shen lang, I have a question to ask you. This dragon egg is so precious. Are you willing to let it fall into our hands? ”
Ying Wuming must have thought about this question for a long time.
“AI!” Shen lang sighed and did not reply for a few seconds.
Then, Shen lang laughed at himself,”the dragon egg is safer in your hands than mine.” If it was in my hands, how could my furious tide city withstand the Empire of Great Yan’s super-long-range strategic attack? I don’t have an ancient interception device, and I don’t have the martial arts that you and your father have. But don’t worry, once we’ve become stronger and I’ve defeated you and your father, I’ll definitely take it back.”
then you might have to wait for a long time, ” Ying Wuming said. even if you wait until you become a skeleton, that day might not come.
senior brother, ” Shen lang continued, ” it’s not nice for the Ying family to have the reputation of a rebel, right? ”
Ying Wuming said, ” I don’t need you to remind me of my identity as a traitor. I betrayed my foster father, Jiang Li. I killed all of the Jiang royal family. I injured Chou Yao ‘er. I captured you. You can go back and write our names a hundred times.
Shen lang said, ” there is only one great Qian Empire in this world. You and your father must have been dreaming of the rightful name of great Qian. The citizens of the New Kingdom look down on you, but for their own benefit, they still have to be loyal to you. After my identity was revealed, although they are willing to support me from the bottom of their hearts, they are afraid that the flames of war will continue to burn on the land of Qian country. They are afraid that I am not strong enough to protect them. So, they are still loyal to your father and son, right?”
Ying Wuming was even more clear about this than Shen lang. The thoughts of the citizens of the newly established Kingdom were too complicated. They were emotionally on Shen Lang’s side, but rationally, they were loyal to the Ying clan.
Therefore, Shen lang had told ning yuanxian many times that he did not want the war to spread to the territory of the New Kingdom, and he did not need it. It was easy for him to gain the loyalty of the people of the New Kingdom. He just had to defeat and destroy the Ying father and son.
As long as Ying Guang and his son were dead, Shen lang would be able to obtain the loyalty of the new Qian Kingdom without shedding a drop of blood. This was because these people were loyal to Jiang Li. Moreover, as long as Shen lang killed Ying Guang and his son, it would prove that he was powerful and that he could protect the people of the new Qian Kingdom.
Shen lang continued, ” senior brother, your martial arts are really strong. Chou Yao ‘er is already the strongest person I know. In the end, she still lost to you. You are indeed my father’s only direct disciple.
Ying Wuming said, ” I’ve already said it. I have everything that Chou Yao ‘er has. I have everything that Chou Yao’ er doesn’t have.
“Senior brother, what do you think of my martial arts?” Shen lang asked.
Ying Wuming shut his mouth because it would be a great humiliation for him to say anything.
Shen Lang’s martial arts? Not only did he not have any martial arts, but he could not even defeat a goose.
Even the weakest and most ordinary militia in the new Qian Kingdom could kill Shen lang in an instant. Any random ruffian on the street could beat the sh * t out of Shen lang.
“Senior brother, how do you think my martial arts compare to yours?” Shen lang asked.
Ying Wuming’s heart was filled with absurdity and anger. Not only did he stop talking, but he even closed his eyes.
Shen lang said, ” senior brother, the difference in our martial arts is like the difference between a Tiger and a rabbit. It’s like the difference between heaven and earth. No, it’s not just that. It’s like the difference between a Tiger and a maggot.”
Uh, your analogy is very unique and vivid, but it’s a little disgusting.
Shen lang pondered for a while. senior brother, I have a crazy suggestion. Don’t go crazy after hearing it.
“Speak.” Ying Wuming’s eyes turned cold.
Shen lang said, ” let’s announce to the world. We will choose a day for the public martial arts competition. If I lose, the name of great Qian Empire will belong to your Ying clan and you will no longer be rebels. From then on, your Ying clan will become the Overlord of great Qian. And if I win, the citizens of the New Kingdom will be completely loyal to me and become a part of my Great Yan Empire. Your Ying clan will automatically lose the throne of the New Kingdom. How about it?”
Ying Wuming was completely stunned.
He had experienced many things in his life. He was already an adult when Jiang Li died.
Even though he looked no more than thirty years old, he was already in his middle age. Of course, with his strong martial arts, it would not be a problem for him to live to more than a hundred years old, so it was completely reasonable to call him a young man at this age.
Having lived for so many years, what had he not seen? However, Prince Ying Wuming was still shocked by Shen lang.
Was Shen lang crazy? He had done many crazy things in the past, and he had succeeded in all of them. However, all the things he had done before were not even half as crazy as this.
It was too shocking. It really made people suspect that there was a problem with their ears.
Even Chou Yao ‘er couldn’t defeat Ying Wuming, let alone Shen lang.
Even 10,000 Shen langs could not defeat Ying Wuming.
Shen lang said, ” we can let the six Supreme powers, the great Yan Empire, and all the other countries bear witness. If I lose, I will definitely give the title of great Qian’s ruler to your Ying family in front of everyone. From now on, you will no longer be rebels.
Ying Wuming’s heart beat faster. This was definitely something that the Ying clan had been dreaming of.
Suddenly, Shen lang shouted through the loudspeaker, ” “Ying Wuming, let’s fight to the death. The winner will be the master of great Qian Empire. Do you dare to? With the six major powers as witnesses, the world as witnesses, billions of people as witnesses, and countless citizens of the new Qian Kingdom as witnesses, this competition can even be held directly in Qianjing city. Do you dare?”
This nightmare stone megaphone was too awesome. It could really be heard through the entire ground and sky.
Of course, this was because there were hundreds of similar nightmare stone receivers on the ground. Therefore, Shen Lang’s voice could be heard in every corner of the area.
He had been preparing for this day for a long time. He and ning yuanxian must have made this plan a few months ago. Moreover, he had come to tianyue city in advance two days ago, waiting for Ying Wuming to attack the city.
Ying Wuming’s 100000-strong Army on the ground and the 10000-strong snow Eagle Army in the air heard his roar clearly. Then, they felt as if they had been struck by lightning and started to doubt their lives.
I-I’m hearing things?
The weak Shen lang wanted to have a duel with Prince Ying Wuming and decide who the great Qian Empire would belong to?
Was there anything more ridiculous than this?
“Ying Wuming, do you dare?” Shen lang shouted.
If Ying Wuming didn’t dare to do that, he would become the laughingstock of the world.
Of course, he was completely infuriated. Shen lang, what right do you have to challenge me? What do you think martial arts are?
You’re not even comparable to a fly, what right do you have to challenge me, a flood Dragon?
“Ying Wuming, do you dare to do it?” Shen lang shouted again.
His voice reverberated through the sky again. The hundreds of thousands of people under Ying Wuming’s command heard it clearly.
“Shen lang, Are you sure?” Ying Wuming asked.
Shen lang said, ” we can announce it to the world. The entire world will bear witness to it. We can even send our challenge letter to the palaces of the various countries. We can even send it to the tables of the leaders of the six Supreme forces.
Ying Wuming stared at Shen lang for a long time and said slowly, ” “Madman, you madman!”
Shen lang said,”senior brother, it’s your turn to make a choice.” You can continue to attack tianyue city, and I will tell sect master Ren about the dragon egg. You can withdraw your troops, and we’ll have a martial arts competition to decide who the title of great Qian Empire belongs to. Didn’t you father and son struggle your entire lives for a proper title? Now, it’s easy to get it. ”
Ying Wuming didn’t speak for a few minutes. His mind was surging like a tide.
After a quarter of an hour, Ying Wuming opened his eyes and said slowly, ” Shen lang, to me, fighting with you is the greatest humiliation in my life. I would rather chop off my hands than fight with trash like you. This is a complete taint on the martial Dao and my career that has lasted for decades.
Shen lang said,”but you will agree, right?” I’m the only son of His Majesty Jiang Li. It’s not embarrassing for you to fight with me. ”
“Embarrassing, very embarrassing.” “But I’ll fulfill your craziness. I accept your challenge,” Ying Wuming said.
“It’s a deal,” Shen lang said.
“It’s a deal,” Ying Wuming said.
..............................
In the dark Castle in the southern seas.
Ying Wuming told the master of stupa mountain and Ying Guang everything that happened.
Father-in-law, father, I’m very sorry. I didn’t get your approval. I’ve already promised Shen lang. because he shouted it in front of hundreds of thousands of people, ” Ying Wuming said. I couldn’t refuse or retreat.
At this moment, even sect leader Ren and Ying Guang were completely stunned and remained silent for a long time.
He knew that Shen lang was a lunatic, but he did not expect him to be this crazy.
He actually wanted to challenge silent aspiration to a one-on-one martial arts duel?
After a long while, sect master Ren said, ” “Is His Majesty Jiang Li that crazy?”
Ying Guang shook his head.
hehe, hahahaha! sect master Ren laughed out loud and said, ” interesting, this is too interesting. This time, the world is really going to pay attention to it.
Ying Guang closed his eyes. After a long while, he opened them and said, ” “Announce it to the world and send a letter to the Yan capital, all the countries under the heavens, and the other five Supreme powers. Let them bear witness.”
........................
In the next few days, the new Qian Kingdom and the great Qian Empire’s edicts were spread throughout the eastern world.
Shen lang and Ying Wuming would have a duel, and the winner would obtain the official title of the great Qian Empire.
Thousands of edicts flew to every vassal state and every major power like snowflakes.
Then, the entire world was completely shocked.
The moment hundreds of millions of people heard this news, they first felt that it was a rumor, a complete and utter rumor.
Even 10,000 Shen langs would not be able to defeat Ying Wuming.
After they confirmed that this was Shen Lang’s edict, many people felt as if they were struck by lightning.
Emperor Shen lang, we know that you are good at creating miracles, but this is too shocking.
But if you really beat Ying Wuming, then you would be a God and the sun would really rise from the West.
