Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 543: Winning or Losing on the Chess Field

The move of killing alive and leaving a trace is something that even a top master like Su Mengzhen, who has been in the martial arts world for a long time, may not have seen before.

Looking at the cursing head on the ground, everyone present felt an endless chill in their hearts, but what made them feel even more terrifying was Su Mengzhen.

At this moment, there was not a trace of fear on Su Mengzhen's face. Instead, he remained calm, as if everything in front of him was as common to him as a cat eating fish or a dog eating shit.

"Young Master Lu's heroic act is a blessing to the people of the two cities and the Song Dynasty."

Bai Choufei looked at Su Mengzhen's back and heard what he said to Lu Ping. Suddenly, an idea came to his mind: Maybe Yuan Shisanxian was not the most flattering person in the Northern Song Dynasty court...

Lu Ping did not respond to Su Mengzhen's words, and put on a high profile: "The culprit has been eliminated, you can all withdraw your troops... In addition, pass this to the two Song emperors."

After he finished speaking, Lu Ping took out two letters from his arms, threw them at Su Mengzhen and Guo Jing, then turned around and disappeared into a streak of white light.

"There is such a powerful person in this world..."

Bai Choufei stared blankly at the place where Lu Ping disappeared, with infinite yearning in his heart.

This is what a man should do!
"Xiao Fei! Xiao Fei..."

It was unknown how long it had been before Bai Choufei finally came back to his senses after hearing Su Mengzhen's call.

"let's go."

"yes, Sir."

With Lu Ping's intervention, the two armies could no longer fight and began to retreat.

The Southern Song army was still led by Guo Jing and his wife. Because the commander of the Northern Song army had died, they had to let someone else lead the troops, but this person was not Su Mengzhen, but Bai Choufei.

Unlike Su Mengzhen, Bai Choufei is not just a gangster. He once joined the army and even relied on his real talents to command 30,000 soldiers. He was also called "Dragon from the Sky" by his fellow soldiers.

When it comes to commanding troops, Bai Choufei is much more experienced than Su Mengzhen.

……

After the troops of both sides returned to the city, they immediately wrote a report on what happened there and sent it back by carrier pigeon. In less than a day, the emperors of the two Song dynasties received the news of "Wang Bei Chao Nan".

A few days later, in the imperial study of the Northern Song Dynasty Palace.

The Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, Grand Tutor Zhuge Zhengwo, Grand Master Cai Jing and others gathered together to listen to Su Mengzhen's personal report.

"...This is exactly what happened." Su Mengzhen told the whole story without any exaggeration.

Although the Emperor of Northern Song had learned about what happened at 'Wangbei Chaonan' from the letter sent back by Su Mengzhen several days ago, he still felt furious when he heard him recount the whole story with his own ears.

"You want me to withdraw my troops and make peace with the enemy?"

"In the past six months, we have already torn our faces apart. If we stop now, how will the people of the world look at me in the future?!"

"This is absolutely impossible!"

Su Mengzhen continued, "Lu Ping said that if the two Song emperors refused to return to their previous state, he would personally take down the heads of the two emperors in a month."

"Humph! How dare a mere gangster like you say such nonsense?"

Cai Jing didn't care about Lu Ping's existence, and even thought that this was Su Mengzhen's way of deliberately intimidating the Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty and raising the value of Jinfengxiyu Tower.

"Didn't you guys praise Guan Qi so much before? But what happened? Didn't he still lose all his martial arts skills and was kicked out of the palace in disgrace?"

“Having said that, we still have to take Lu Ping’s existence seriously.”

Zhuge Zhengwo interrupted, "You all know why Guan Qi's martial arts were ruined that day."

“And it is said that Lu Ping’s strength is not inferior to Guan Qi, and he has even defeated Xiao Qiushui and Yan Kuangtu. If he insists on breaking into the palace and killing people, even if the Imperial Guards, the Divine Marquis Mansion, and even the Golden Wind and Rain Tower are combined, they may not be his opponent.”

Su Mengzhen echoed, "That day at the Seven Sacred Peaks, Young Marquis Fang Yingkan and Grand Master's master Yuan Shisanxian also witnessed Lu Ping's strength with their own eyes."

"If you don't believe it, go back and ask them and you'll know." The Northern Song Emperor felt even more uneasy after hearing this, and asked again, "You just said that Lu Ping had a letter for you to pass on?"

"Yes, the letter is here." Su Mengzhen took out the envelope from his arms and handed it over.

The Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty opened the letter and remained silent for a long time.

The three waited for a long time but he didn't say anything, so they asked, "Your Majesty, what did the thief say in the letter?"

"See for yourselves."

The three of them took the envelope respectfully and only then could they see the contents clearly.

A few seconds later, his expression changed suddenly as well.

"He wants us to compete with the Southern Song Dynasty and decide the winner on the chess field?!"

"The winner takes over the world, the loser steps down and leaves the throne to the wise!"

"Use the most peaceful means to achieve the unification of the two Song dynasties?!"

The three of them were stunned for several seconds, and Cai Jing was the first to shout angrily: "It's simply... simply... outrageous?!"

"This is a dispute between two countries, not a child's game! How can the throne be decided by a mere contest? If this gets out, won't the world laugh at us?"

Not only Cai Jing, but also Zhuge Zhengwo, Su Mengzhen and others were all filled with disbelief.

It’s no wonder they behaved like this. Lu Ping’s method was really unheard of and too frivolous.

Zhuge Zhengwo sighed, "If a dozen or so martial arts masters could avoid a fight involving hundreds of thousands of troops, I think no one in the world would disagree."

Su Mengzhen continued, "Under this premise, if Your Majesty still insists on raising troops, I'm afraid you will be branded as someone who 'takes human lives lightly'..."

Cai Jing was still dissatisfied: "But if we act like this, how can the officials and the people accept the result even if it comes out?!"

Zhuge Zhengwo said calmly: "Grand Master is indeed loyal to the emperor and patriotic! I wonder what you think about this?"

"Ah this..." Cai Jing was suddenly speechless, his neck shrank downward and he became silent.

It's okay to lose your temper and show loyalty, but when it comes to opinions, you absolutely can't do it.

Everyone had already learned the news that when they looked south and north that day, the road was flat and the mountains were rising, which pinned the 200,000-strong army in place and made them unable to move.

Although he felt that this matter was too mysterious and unusual, since everyone said so, it couldn't be false. So when Zhuge Zhengwo asked him this, Cai Jing couldn't help feeling scared.

Su Mengzhen fanned the flames and said, "How about letting the martial arts masters under the Grand Master assassinate Lu Ping?"

"As long as the assassination is successful, we will no longer have to worry about this person and fight the Southern Song Dynasty with all our might!"

Hearing this, the Northern Song Emperor's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Cai Jing with hope on his face: "Grandmaster, are you sure?"

Damn Zhuge Zhengwo, damn Su Mengzhen, you two will be in trouble in the future!
Cai Jing cursed in his heart and said, "Your Majesty, I just think that deciding the fate of the country with just one competition is too much of a joke!"

"Why don't we talk to Lu Ping and have more matches? The stakes don't have to be that high. For example, betting a city on one match is more than enough."

"You must know that in any battle, before thinking about winning, you must first think about losing."

"This way, even if we lose one or two games, we still have room to maneuver..."

Upon hearing Cai Jing's answer, the hope on the Northern Song Emperor's face immediately faded, and he returned to his previous worried look.

Although the proposal of "multiple battles" is not a solution, it is better than the idea of ​​"determining the outcome in one game".

The Northern Song Emperor also knew that such "cowardice" was not Cai Jing's fault alone. It was because the situation was stronger than the people, and Lu Ping's deterrent power was too great, and they had no right to refuse.
