Chapter 73 The True and False Emperor, the Emperor’s Showdown

Chen Huaian certainly recognized the man who rode out of the simple gate of Tumubao, wearing golden armor and holding the Overlord Spear. He was the current emperor, the second emperor of Daxin, Zhao Gan.

Chen Huaian especially remembered the golden armor Zhao Gan wore and the Overlord Spear in his hand, which shone coldly in the afterglow of the setting sun.

This was the personal weapon of the previous emperor Zhao Mang, and was made by the same craftsman as the Fang Tian Hua Ji in Chen Huaian's hand. Both were forged from meteorites from outer space.

The spear tip was sharp, and anyone who touched it would die. The spear body was so heavy that anyone who swept it would die.

Even the golden armor Zhao Gan wore was exactly the same as the golden armor Chen Huaian wore.

Both sets of armor were unique in the world.

Thirty years ago, the former Emperor Zhao Mang and the King of Jin, Chen Polu, wore the same two sets of golden armor, held the Overlord Spear and the Fang Tian Huaji forged by the same craftsman from meteorites, and became brothers of different surnames in front of the Guandi Temple.

They vowed to sweep across the Five Barbarians and restore the Han Dynasty.

At that time, the brothers Zhao Mang and Chen Polu, who were loyal and high-spirited, fulfilled their oaths with their lives, fought side by side on horseback, and finally established the Han Dynasty Daxin with an unprecedentedly vast territory.

The brotherhood between the former Emperor Zhao Mang and the King of Jin, Chen Polu, was also compiled into a storytelling by storytellers and became a legendary story.

Now, Zhao Gan, the second emperor of Daxin, and Chen Huaian, the son of the King of Jin, are also wearing the golden armor worn by their fathers and holding the weapons that their fathers used to resist foreign humiliation, but they have come to the opposite side of water and fire.

Both of them know very well that in today's battle, either you die or I die!

"Rebellious minister Chen Huaian, come forward and speak!"

Suddenly, Zhao Gan, who was standing proudly at the gate of Tumubao, shouted domineeringly to Chen Huaian, who was also standing proudly at the front of the two armies thousands of steps away.

Fearing that the distance was too far and Chen Huaian could not hear, Zhao Gan also specially ordered the imperial guards behind him to shout in unison:

"Rebellious minister Chen Huaian, come forward and speak!"

Instantly, the roar of the Daxin Imperial Guards resounded within a few miles of Tumubao in the bleak autumn wind.

Just as Chen Huaian was about to ride forward, he heard the admonition of his generals:

"Prince Jin, don't do that!"

"Your Highness, be careful of fraud!"

Pang Xianchu and Fan Wuji, generals of the Longcheng Po Lu Army, who were familiar with the current emperor Zhao Gan, immediately rode forward to stop him.

The young General Huo Qubing also rode forward, with a righteous look on his heroic and masculine face, and volunteered: "Your Highness, I am willing to fight on your behalf and go to the front to meet this dog emperor Zhao Gan!"

In comparison, General Wang Jian seemed much calmer.

After silently estimating the distance, he spoke:

"Your Highness, if we launch a siege at this time, the Qin Rui soldiers under my command will only need half an incense stick of time to advance to Tumubao and reach the shooting range of the crossbow cart. Your Highness does not need to take risks!"

"Your Highness, the general is right. The dog emperor Zhao Gan is already trapped. When I lead my troops to break through Tumubao, it will not be too late for your Highness to interrogate the dog emperor!"

"Your Highness, give the order!"

For a while, the Dragon City generals under Chen Huaian were eager to try.

At this time, Zhao Gan, who was standing proudly outside Tumubao, shouted again: "What, Chen Huaian, are you afraid of me?"

"Aren't you deceiving the people of the world, saying that you are following the will of the previous emperor and holding the golden whip to fight against the will of heaven?"

"Fight the tyrants and the disloyalty of the civil and military officials!"

As he said this, Zhao Gan actually rode out and walked slowly towards the camp of the Longcheng Jingnan Army alone.

"I, Zhao Gan, the Emperor of Xinjian, am waiting here for you to fight me, the tyrant and the unjust. Do you have the courage to step forward?"

"If you don't have the courage, just lay down your weapons and surrender to me. I will spare you the crime of lingchi and change it to five horses to dismemberment, okay?"

Hahaha!

As he spoke, Zhao Gan's domineering and violent laughter resounded inside and outside Tumubao.

Amidst the laughter, Zhao Gan even shouted back the imperial guards who followed closely behind him to protect him: "Kang Yang, without my order, none of you are allowed to step forward."

"I want to see which of these traitors dares to step forward and offend my majesty!"

After saying that, Zhao Gan suddenly raised his foot and hit the belly of the Ferghana horse under his crotch. The warhorse, in pain, immediately raised its four hooves and ran wildly in the buffer zone where the two sides were fighting and confronting.

At this time, Zhao Gan, who came forward alone to challenge, had a bit of the temperament of the Zhenwu Emperor Zhao Mang.

However, his move frightened Kang Yang, the commander of the imperial guards, and a group of generals of the Japanese soldiers.

Kang Yang was extremely anxious, but he did not dare to disobey the emperor's will, so he had to pass down the order: "Pass on this general's order, archers and crossbowmen are ready. If any enemy army dares to offend the emperor, no need to ask for permission, kill them without mercy!"

"The imperial guards and cavalry, all of you should be alert and ready to go out of the city with me to protect the emperor at any time!"

"I have received the order"

The orders spread throughout Tumubao in an instant, and the imperial soldiers stationed there immediately took action, ready to support the emperor Zhao Gan who came forward alone to challenge the emperor.

At the same time.

In the camp of the Longcheng Jingnan Army, Chen Huaian naturally also discovered Zhao Gan's arrogant behavior. He actually came forward alone to challenge the majesty of himself and the Longcheng Jingnan Army.

He immediately decided to meet Zhao Gan and strive to defeat the enemy without fighting and defeat the morale of the imperial soldiers.

Chen Huaian said: "All generals obey the order and prepare for war. Without my order, no one can act without permission, and no arrow is allowed to be released."

"Those who disobey orders will be killed without mercy!"

After saying that, he gently patted the belly of the yellow gelding under his crotch. The yellow gelding immediately understood, raised his four hooves and rushed out.

Upon seeing this, the other Longcheng generals said no more, and just silently issued orders to sort out the armies they commanded, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

All the generals knew very well that since the dog emperor Zhao Qian dared to go to the appointment alone, then as ministers, they must not hold back His Highness the King of Jin.

At this time, morale is more valuable than gold!

Kick, kick, kick!

Kick, kick, kick!

For a time, on the battlefield for several miles around the huge earthen fort, there were only the monotonous sound of two war horses galloping with their hooves raised, and the whistling sound of the northwest wind that had already scratched the face.

The generals of the two armies were all concentrating and holding their breath, staring at the buffer area where the two armies were facing each other without even daring to blink.

Until, two tall figures also wearing golden armor met on the desolate battlefield without any suspense.

Call——

Accompanied by the sound of stopping the horses, the current emperor Zhao Qian and the Jin prince Chen Huaian, the two protagonists of the "Jingnan Campaign" of the New Dynasty, finally met each other.
