Chapter 588 The Gambling Game Begins 2



It’s the eleventh year since Chu Tian came to Baigu City.

In winter, there is heavy snow.

The current emperor of the Da Cang Dynasty is celebrating his 3,000th birthday. The 36 princes and countless noble officials of the Da Cang Dynasty have rushed to the Da Cang Imperial City to celebrate. The emperors of the eight dynasties neighboring the Da Cang Dynasty have also sent out envoys to the Da Cang Imperial City.

On the birthday, at the birthday banquet, the deputy envoy of the diplomatic delegation from the neighboring country of the Da Cang Dynasty, the Cang Yan Dynasty, went crazy after drinking. He flirted with the 235th daughter of Yun Xuan, Princess Yunhe, in public, and made outrageous statements, demanding that the Da Cang Dynasty give the entire territory of a vassal state as a dowry and send Princess Yunhe to marry the eighteenth prince of the Cang Yan Dynasty as a concubine!

'Be a concubine'!

A princess of the Da Cang Dynasty married a prince from a neighboring country as a concubine!

What's more, they had to cede the territory of a vassal state and give it to the Cang Yan Dynasty as a dowry for no reason!

The ministers of the Da Cang Dynasty were timid and did not dare to speak. Yun Xuan was timid at the birthday banquet, talking about irrelevant things and acting in a vague manner.

Only Yuntian, the ninety-ninth prince of the Da Cang Dynasty, drew his sword and killed the chief and deputy envoys of the Cang Yan Dynasty with one sword. After angrily denouncing Yun Xuan for his incompetence, he broke into the harem of the Da Cang Dynasty while being chased by countless palace guards, and forcibly took away his biological mother, the 'Empress Nanxiu', and his two younger brothers and four younger sisters from the same mother. He broke out of the palace of the Da Cang Dynasty with a sword, and broke out of the imperial city as if there was no one in the world, and disappeared.

Emperor Yunxuan of the Da Cang Dynasty was furious and sent elite guards to chase and kill Yun Tian, ​​but they were killed by the guests and retainers around Yun Tian, ​​leaving him with no face and no dignity.

After the Cang Yan Dynasty received the news that the chief and deputy envoys of its own diplomatic mission had been beheaded, it immediately dispatched troops to the border of the Da Cang Dynasty and ordered Yun Xuan to give an explanation!

Yun Xuan explained that in addition to Princess Yunhe, five other princesses were sent to the border between the two countries as gifts of apology. Also sent was a document of cession of territory from a vassal state, as well as mountains of rare treasures, gold and silver coins.

When this incident happened, the entire Da Cang Dynasty was shaken, and the royal majesty was completely lost.

Yuntian, along with his biological mother and younger brothers and sisters, fled all the way back to the feudal state thousands of miles away. Along the way, he issued a manifesto of conquest, listing all the acts of Yunxuan's incompetence and tyranny over the years, and summoned the heroes of the Da Cang Dynasty to join in the uprising, overthrow the useless and incompetent monarch Yunxuan, and rebuild the majesty of the Da Cang Dynasty as the strongest country among the hundreds of countries surrounding it.

As soon as Yuntian's manifesto came out, the entire Da Cang Dynasty was shaken.

Yuntian and his group, who were fleeing in a panic, were still far away from their own fiefdom. The two vassal states bordering Yuntian's fiefdom had already mobilized their armies and rushed to the border of their fiefdom in a mighty force, showing an attitude of joining forces to destroy Yuntian.

The journey was long, and the two vassal states were not very efficient in mobilizing their troops. Half a month had passed since Yuntian came back from the distant imperial city. The two vassal states had finally mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops and arrived at an alluvial plain called Sanjiangkou at the same time.

The place name is just as its name suggests. Three major rivers meander out from the southern foot of Dacang Mountain and travel for unknown tens of thousands of miles. Here they converge into a mighty river with a width of hundreds of miles, flowing all the way to the northeast.

At the confluence of the three rivers, there is an alluvial plain covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of miles. The land is extremely fertile and the products are extremely abundant. It is divided equally between Yuntian and the other two vassal states. In the three vassal states, this alluvial plain is an extremely famous fertile land and a veritable land of fish and rice.

The two vassal states hurriedly sent their armies to gather here, apparently intending to divide up the Sanjiangkou Plain and then divide up the Yuntian vassal states.

Heavy snow fell all over the sky. On the wall of a big city, Chu Tian, ​​holding a cigarette in his mouth, quietly watched a large group of people struggling to trek through the thick snow more than a dozen miles away. The vanguard armies of the two vassal states added up to only more than a hundred thousand people. Despite the cold weather and the snow blocking the roads, they resolutely launched an attack on this "Silver Lake City" from their own cities hundreds of miles away.

Exhaling a heavy smoke ring, Chu Tian asked in a deep voice: "My Lord...will you be safe?"

Lin Wufeng, who was in charge of Yinhu City and was Yuntian's trusted general, and whose cultivation was comparable to that of a high-level Liming Realm, stood beside Chu Tian wearing a helmet and armor, and said with a confident smile: "Your Highness is a man of destiny, destined to revive the country and revive our Great Cang Dynasty. How can those guards do anything to your Highness?"

With a cold snort, Lin Wufeng said in a deep voice: "However, the imperial concubine and the prince's brothers and sisters are a little weak in cultivation. The prince has to protect them well, so the speed of return will naturally be a little slower."

Chu Tian nodded, pointed at the coalition forces of the two countries that were approaching outside, and said calmly: "That's good, as long as the prince is safe, it's good! General Lin, get ready, we can't wait to see how powerful these treasures forged over the years are!"

Lin Wufeng's face suddenly turned red. He took a deep breath and looked at the three hundred crossbows lined up on the city wall. He couldn't help but tremble slightly. "Yes, Master Dali, we can't wait to see how lethal these treasures can be on the battlefield."

After a pause, Lin Wufeng waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "There are not many soldiers outside the city who can even wear leather armor. Don't use the Crazy Dragon Crossbow for now. Use the Torrential Rain Crossbow to show them how powerful we are!"

The so-called Mad Dragon Crossbow is a heavy crossbow specially made by Chu Tian with a bowstring force of 10 million pounds.

The Rainstorm Crossbow is another type of crossbow designed by Chu Tian. It has a bowstring force of only 30,000 to 50,000 pounds, an extremely large number of arrows, and a more delicate and slender size. It is a large-scale lethal crossbow.

The arrows of the Mad Dragon Crossbow are 12 feet long, as thick as a baby's arm; while the arrows of these Storm Crossbows are only 1 foot 2 inches long, as thick as a little finger. A bed crossbow can send 1,080 arrows 15 miles away at a time!

Among the crossbows placed on the city wall at this moment, there are only thirty Crazy Dragon Crossbows, and the remaining two hundred and seventy are Torrential Crossbows!

The enemies outside the city were getting closer and closer. Chu Tian folded his hands across his chest and looked at the soldiers coldly.

In the sky above Yinhu City, Chu Tian clearly felt the presence of two weak heavenly soldiers.

In the hands of the two heavenly soldiers were an object emitting strange fluctuations. The strange fluctuations transformed into a vortex covering an area of ​​thousands of miles in the sky, firmly locking onto the 'battlefield' below!

Chu Tian took a deep breath and then exhaled a long stream of thick smoke.

"War, death, souls...harvesting!" Chu Tian curled his lips in contempt. The way the Heavenly Court did things was so despicable.

On the city wall, Lin Wufeng gave an order, and two hundred and seventy heavy rain crossbows had adjusted their shooting angles. Along with the dull sound of mechanisms, black traces tore through the air, smashing countless falling snowflakes, like a group of hornets bringing death, whistling and covering the army that was struggling to march through the snow ten miles ahead.

A shrill howl came from afar.

The snow was covered with blood. At least forty to fifty thousand people were pierced by arrows in this wave of shooting.

The blood cooled rapidly on the snow, and the crossbow designed and forged by Chu Tian showed its edge for the first time on the battlefield.

"It's started!" Chu Tian muttered in a low voice.
