Chapter 243: Prince Huai's back-up plan
Ning Fan's subconscious answer was suddenly interrupted by a burst of laughter. Emperor Yu's face darkened instantly, and the originally very depressing atmosphere suddenly changed.
"Ahem!"
When Ning Fan came back to his senses, he also felt that he was a bit of a loser. It was so fucking embarrassing. It was all the fault of the dog system...
"Father..."
Ning Fan was about to quibble, but he met Emperor Yu's warning gaze and had to change his words: "Long live Dayu, long live my emperor!"
Everyone was laughing when they suddenly heard a nervous shout from Ning Fan. They were all stunned for a moment, and then shouted in unison: "Long live Dayu, long live our emperor!"
Emperor Yu couldn't help but twitch his face, looked towards the phalanx not far away, and said calmly: "Get ready to defend against the enemy!"
Zhuge Liang's eyes sparkled, silently taking in Emperor Yu's expressions, words and everyone's reactions, and the stone hanging in his heart finally fell.
On the carriage not far away, Concubine Xian opened the window and watched everything happening in front of her calmly.
"tread!"
"tread!"
The armored phalanx in the distance was like a moving black cloud, coming across and sweeping away miles of sand and dust, mixed with a hint of indomitable momentum.
"Being able to appear quietly in the capital and equipped with such complete armor."
"You really can see the sky with your hands and eyes!"
Emperor Yu couldn't help but sigh, his expression was as calm as ever, and the overwhelming aura that surged from his body seemed to have affected others, and no one showed much fear.
"Dick!"
"How are you going to fight this battle?"
Emperor Yu looked at Ning Fan again, and all the princes showed a look of amusement. They had long known that their father relied heavily on Prince Yong, but they did not expect that they would favor him to such an extent.
Especially Ning Yu, who had just been gloating about his misfortune, now had a face as dark as water, looking at Ning Fan's figure without saying a word, with unspeakable jealousy in his eyes.
"Father, the soldiers have experienced a fight and must be exhausted by now."
"This place is only a few miles away from the capital. I think the city must already know our situation. It won't be long before reinforcements will arrive!"
"We might as well delay it for a while."
Emperor Yu nodded in agreement, glanced at the setting sun, and then looked towards the approaching phalanx.
The leader was a general wearing golden armor, followed by several generals in black armor, filled with a strong evil aura.
"A bold traitor who dares to commit rebellion and bring trouble to the capital!"
"Do you dare to tell me the number one spot?"
Jing Li took a step forward and shouted lowly. The golden-armored general raised his right hand, and the phalanx behind him suddenly stood up.
"Did you see anything?"
"Your Majesty, this formation is like King Huai's five-cornered chain formation."
"good!"
Emperor Yu nodded slightly, with a sneer on his face: "It was King Huai's five-cornered chain formation. Back then, he relied on this formation to kill hundreds of thousands of Dali's coalition forces!"
"Is it possible that behind them is...Prince Huai?"
Emperor Yu did not speak, but clapped his horse forward and said calmly: "Do you recognize me?"
"Dayu Hunjun, Ningqu!"
The golden-armored general narrowed his eyes and landed on Emperor Yu, showing undisguised murderous intent.
"Hahaha!"
Emperor Yu laughed loudly, his eyes fell on the golden-armored general, and said calmly: "I have seen you before. When you were with Lu Kan's class teacher, you were still a captain, right?"
"Your Majesty is so wise, I didn't expect to remember a nobody like me."
"It's truly remarkable."
Emperor Yu couldn't help but sighed and said softly: "It's amazing that Lu Kan can pull up such a fine armor under my nose!"
"However, I am very curious. Is he confident this time?"
"My army of more than 200,000 is located in the west of the city, which is only more than ten miles away. How dare you?"
Emperor Yu frowned, as if he couldn't understand. Ning Fan smiled faintly, glanced at the surrounding mountains and forests, and whistled.
A white shadow suddenly rushed towards a mountain forest. Ning Fan silently opened the dynamic military sandbox with a look of surprise on his face.
"It turns out they are waiting too!"
"Which general dares to go up and fight with him twice?"
"Your Highness, the last general invites you to fight!"
Almost all the generals around him lined up. Ning Fan's eyes fell on Guan Yu: "Yun Chang, go up and call the formation!"
"Brother, the imperial court's reinforcements are about to arrive, why are they delaying?"
"You might as well give it a try!"
As soon as Ning Fan finished speaking, Guan Yu dragged the Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand and rushed forward. Before he could speak, the golden-armored general whispered to the person next to him, and a figure appeared in front of the formation!
"The person who inserts the bid and sells the leader!"
Guan Yu looked at the person rushing up, with a deep disdain in his eyes. He charged forward with a knife, and his aura became stronger and stronger. As the two men approached, they gradually reached a peak.
"The top peak military general!"
"It's only half a step away from being unparalleled!"
Ning Chen glanced at Guan Yu in surprise. He didn't notice it during the fight just now. He didn't expect that this big man in green shirt with hanging sideburns and shoulders was so powerful.
"Your Highness, who can win this battle?"
Lin Qiushi and other ministers all looked at Ning Chen nervously and asked, staring straight at the two people who were gradually approaching.
"This battle..."
As soon as Ning Chen's words came out, he saw the man in the field wearing a green shirt suddenly swinging his long sword. Accompanied by the neigh of the war horse, his hoofs were raised high, and the sword was immediately slashed down with one strike!
"puff!"
Blood gushed out, heads fell, and the scene fell into dead silence.
All the civil officials were pale, and some of them were so timid that they covered their faces with their sleeves, unable to look directly.
"Good!"
Emperor Yu applauded, his face full of satisfaction, and he looked at Guan Yu deeply, praising: "What a handsome swordsmanship, Guan Yu has the style of a great general, he is worthy of being reused!"
Guan Yu also showed his face in the court. Originally, for his merits, he should have been conferred an imperial title in the court, but that morning, he was buried alive by Dian Wei with a punch, and was instead conferred an imperial title by decree.
Qin Qiong was injured, and Yue Fei and Dian Wei seemed to want to give Guan Yu and Xu Chu and others a chance to show their faces. When they came out just now, they were half a step behind.
"A bunch of rats dare to rebel, who else will come up and ask for death?"
Guan Yu held his long sword horizontally, and his green shirt fluttered without wind. He looked at the golden-armored general calmly, with undisguised contempt in his eyes.
"Hmph, who can go up and get him for me?"
"What an arrogant long-haired monster, I'll take care of him!"
A sturdy short-legged man came out with a sledgehammer in his hand. The warhorse he rode was not an ordinary good horse, but a packhorse introduced from the Western Regions. Although it galloped slowly, its limbs were strong and powerful.
Dian Wei's eyes lit up immediately, and he stared at the warhorse under the fat man and shouted: "Yun Chang, leave the horse to me!"
Guan Yu responded and went up with a sword.
The short-legged man was obviously more powerful than the general just now. He wielded a sledgehammer in his hand with great power, and even Guan Yu did not dare to fight him head-on!
