The Emperor is Above

Chapter 486 Brother, how about a shot?
Vain and arrogant people are often unreasonable.

The princes of Diqiu and Zhongzhou often have a strong sense of superiority over the princes of the Eight Wildernesses.

The Seventy-Six Kingdoms of the Northern Wilderness have always been poor relatives in the eyes of the princes of Zhongzhou. The Kingdom of Xing is a well-known poor country in the Northern Wilderness and is at the bottom of the contempt chain.

In the eyes of the people of Xing State and the nobles and ministers, the northern border area was a remote and poor place, and it became a barren land for the coalition forces of the princes.

However, Qing Yi suddenly appeared with the Dragon City Fengtu, and gradually and thoroughly shattered the pride in the hearts of the coalition generals, causing them indescribable inner torture.

This is also the reason why some princes and generals are dissatisfied with Qing Yi. As for Shen Bubing, he is purely jealous that Qing Yi can easily win the favor of tens of thousands of ordinary soldiers.

Seeing Qing Yi coming with several people and a lot of drinks, a general of the vassal states, at Shen Bubing's signal, stood up and said disdainfully:

"Shaoqing Yi of Longcheng distributed drinks to tens of thousands of soldiers to cool them down. Although it was his good intention, I think that he simply did not know how to fight.

Since ancient times, only an army that can endure hardships can have strong fighting perseverance. If they only pursue enjoyment, they will just be a group of old soldiers who cherish their lives.

When God wants to give a man a great responsibility, he must first make his mind suffer, his muscles and bones tired, his body hungry and empty, so that he can train a strong army—"

Before the general could finish, Qing Yi interrupted him speechlessly, "Brother, when you have the nerve to say this, can you please throw away the drink in your hand?
According to you, when marching and fighting, if your generals eat and drink well, it will help maintain their combat effectiveness, but if the soldiers eat well, their combat effectiveness will decrease?"

"Shaoqing Yi of Longcheng, our army is not relying solely on the Longcheng Guards under your command to fight this time. Our Zhongzhou coalition army is the main force of the army."

Zeng Xin, a general of the Zeng State, had always been on good terms with Shen Bubing. When he saw that the general's face had turned red, he immediately stood up and loudly refuted,

“Your Dragon City Guards only have 10,000 people. Although our coalition is a group of loose sand as you said, with the Emperor’s reinforcements of 5,000 as the core, we can also fight a tough battle.

Especially the 200 chariots under the command of Captain Shen Bumie, all of which were powerful chariots blessed with rune formations, and their horses were wearing heavy armor and charged forward invincible.

There are spiral blades made by weapon refiners on both sides of the chariot tracks. Even if the enemy army has 100,000 people, they can be defeated by the chariots. "

Shen Bumie frowned slightly because he was actually implicated. He wanted to scold Zeng Xin for his inappropriate words, but when he thought that Zeng Hou was a staunch supporter of the emperor, he opened his mouth but said nothing.

Zeng Xin, however, took his silence as encouragement and boasted even more vigorously, "In addition to the amazing power of the Cheshi chariots, the three armored soldiers on the chariots are also extraordinary.

The one at the head of the chariot in the middle is a sixth-rank upper-armored soldier, and the ones on the left and right sides of the chariot are seventh-rank lower-armored soldiers. Their armor and weapons are all produced by the talisman masters and weapon refiners of the Diqiu Tai Academy.

The other twelve elite soldiers are also very powerful. The squad leader is at the eighth-grade warrior level, and the two sergeants are both at the ninth-grade strongman level. The nine elite soldiers are all at a high level of body forging.

The sergeant and two corporals are equipped with rune bows and arrows, and can hit the target every time even if they are hundreds of feet away. They are a famous and powerful army under the command of Emperor Diqiu. "

"Haha, there hasn't been a war in Diqiu for more than 800 years. I didn't expect that the Cheshi, which was so glorious 800 years ago, is still as powerful as the legend says!"

Qing Yi smiled faintly, not caring about the boasting of the two vassal generals, but instead praised the several famous battles that Cheshi participated in when the Great Shen Dynasty was just established. The strength of the three armored soldiers of Cheshi is also the origin of the naming of the realm of the sixth-rank upper armored soldiers and the seventh-rank lower armored soldiers. Some vassal states called them Che Guangzhishi.

Shen Bumie and Shen Buhai looked a little embarrassed when they heard Qing Yi's praise. It was not that they were angry with Qing Yi, but they were angry with the two princes and generals for being blind.

Didn't they see that the Dragon City Guards had 10,000 soldiers, all of whom were at or above the ninth-grade warrior realm? The Emperor's Cheshi had no advantage over them at all.

Qing Yi didn't care about the boasting and provocation of these princes and generals. How could this old man Tun Shigu stand provocation? His eyes were wide open and he shouted in dissatisfaction:
"We have heard of the reputation of the Emperor's Chariot Division, but there are only 200 chariots in front of us, while our Dragon City Guards have 500 chariots."

Zeng Xin and the vassal general laughed immediately: "We have also seen the armored chariots of the Dragon City Guards. It is really amazing that they do not need horses to pull them.

But the soldiers can't even stand steadily on this kind of chariot, let alone carry elite soldiers to fight with the chariot. At most, they can scare the enemy in a big battle. What kind of combat power can they have?"

Yang Lezi Shangqing watched the excitement for a while, and was afraid that the two sides would be unhappy and affect the next step of the joint operation, so he quickly stood up and persuaded:
"Oh my, why do you have to keep arguing over such a small matter? In my opinion, the chariots of the Emperor's Chariot Division are definitely stronger. After all, they are a powerful army that has been famous for hundreds of years.

However, in the scorching summer, having a cup of cool herbal tea or sour plum soup during the march is a priceless enjoyment. You should also thank Longcheng Yi Shaoqing for the drink, right?"

When Tun Shigu heard Yang Lezi's persuasion, he became even more dissatisfied. These armored vehicles were indeed invented by Kui Wendou, Yang Hu and others.

However, the specific processing and production were done painstakingly by Tun Shigu and his craftsmen. This was their hard work, so how could they allow outsiders to slander it?

So Tu Shigu turned to Qing Yi and asked pleadingly: "Brother, how about firing a cannon? That will also let the Shangqing and the captains and lieutenants understand our strength."

"Then it's as Brother Shigu wishes!"

Qing Yi and Tun Shigu's words aroused everyone's interest. Until now, they were all curious about how the armored vehicles of the Dragon City Guards fought.

So, under the leadership of Yang Lezi, Shen Buhai, Shen Bumie and Shen Bubing, hundreds of allied generals and military mages gathered and walked to the edge of the woods.

"Bang - boom -"

Tun Shigu personally operated a chariot and fired a shot at the distance. The huge explosive power brought by the crystal bomb and the dust rising into the sky stunned all the coalition generals who were watching.

Yang Lezi Shangqing was stunned for a long time, then he looked at Qing Yi and murmured: "Is this the chariot of Longcheng Yi Shaoqing? It turns out that it is not fighting hand-to-hand with the army?"

Shen Bumie was the most meticulous. He measured the range of the crystal shells with his steps, and then observed the crater left by the explosion with his own eyes. His expression became more solemn as he said:

“A random strike could reach a distance of a thousand feet. The crater alone was about ten feet wide. If there was such power in the army, there would be no one alive within at least thirty feet.

Our chariot masters have a great reputation created by our ancestors hundreds of years ago, but now it seems that they have fallen behind the times. "
