Chapter 208 Border
Six hours later, Lu Chen appeared on the main peak of Xuantian Sect.
The receiving array was useless after it received Lu Chen.
Lu Chen immediately looked for Zhu Feichen, but found that Zhu Feichen was not there, so he went down the mountain and went straight to Dan Pavilion.
Along the way, there were very few pedestrians in the whole court. There were only groups of soldiers building fortifications. The atmosphere was solemn and oppressive, as if war was coming.
Dan Pavilion.
There was only one elder sitting in charge. Bai Ningshuang and the other elders were gone, as were the pavilion guards.
The elder told Lu Chen that the Ruifeng Empire's army was pressing on the border, and King Minghao led the three armies to go to the border to defend against the enemy.
Bai Ningshuang took all the power of Dan Pavilion and followed King Minghao to join the battle.
Even Minghao personally led the troops to fight. You can imagine how bad the situation was.
Business Pavilion.
It was usually bustling with traffic, but now it was deserted.
Shang Ge abided by Shang Zong's regulations and did not participate in the war.
But the arrival of Lu Chen broke the silence of the Yongming Dynasty merchant pavilion.
The master of Shangge Pavilion read Duan Xin's letter and immediately handed over the power of Shangge Pavilion to Lu Chen without saying a word.
The Shang Pavilion's caravan guard only has a few thousand people. It's not good enough for these people to go to the battlefield, but the caravan guard's combat power is very strong, and it is still a force after all.
Lu Chen led the caravan and left the imperial capital, headed north and headed straight for the border.
border.
There are steep mountains and cliffs, and there are no people in the barren mountains and rivers.
Between the two mountains, there is a huge pass, which is the front line of defense against the Ruifeng Empire.
Outside the pass, there is a thousand miles of wilderness, with people roaring and horses neighing, and armies gathering. It is so dark that there is no end in sight.
The eldest prince of the Ruifeng Empire led five million troops in an attack formation with a fierce momentum.
King Minghao, the leader of the Yongming Dynasty, personally defended the enemy and led two million elite soldiers to go out of the pass and fight decisively with them.
The two armies faced each other, swords were drawn, and the war was about to break out. The monstrous killing filled the wilderness thousands of miles away.
"Archers prepare!"
"Lancers ready!"
"Cavalry troops prepare!"
"The left wing troops move forward a hundred feet!"
"Right wing troops put up their shields!"
One after another, majestic military orders sounded, like rolling thunder, echoing in the empty wilderness, deafening.
The war is about to begin!
The next moment, a voice came out, which relaxed the tense atmosphere a little.
"Please come out, King Minghao. The eldest prince of our Ruifeng Empire wants to have a few words with you."
After the voice fell, He Xiong led four generals, hugged the eldest prince wearing a black python robe, and rode out into battle.
On the other side, Ming Hao also rode out from the crowd, accompanied by Princess Mingyue, and behind him were Xin Yue and other four generals.
The men and horses on both sides walked slowly, and when they came to the formation where the two armies were facing each other, they stood and watched.
"The eldest prince led a large army to invade our border with the intention of destroying our Yongming Dynasty. What else do you want to say?"
Minghao looked at the eldest prince who was only twenty years old and said coldly.
"We have an opportunity to turn hostility into friendship. It depends on whether you can seize it."
The eldest prince smiled.
"tell me the story."
Minghao said.
"As long as you send one person away, I will withdraw my troops immediately and never invade the Yongming Dynasty."
The eldest prince said.
"To whom?"
Minghao knew that the eldest prince had this request, but he still pretended not to know.
"she!"
The eldest prince looked at Princess Mingyue next to Minghao, and the admiration in his eyes turned into fanaticism. He said with a trembling voice, "Princess Mingyue, since I met you last year, I have fallen deeply in love with you. I miss you day and night and can't help myself." Dial, no woman in the world can come into my eyes."
No matter how sweet-tongued the eldest prince was, Princess Mingyue remained indifferent. With a look of ice on her pretty face, she didn't even look at the eldest prince.
"As long as Princess Mingyue marries me, I will not only withdraw my troops, but I can also defeat the Liang Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty and give all the land of these two countries to you, the Yongming Dynasty."
The eldest prince offered generous terms.
"real or fake?"
Minghao asked coldly.
"I am the future emperor of the Ruifeng Empire. I have gained great power now. My words are equivalent to imperial edicts."
The eldest prince said proudly.
"First Prince, no, the price is too high. We are determined to win those two countries."
He Xiong next to him was anxious and quickly advised.
"Shut up, this prince's life-long event, when will it be your turn to talk? How can two small countries compare with Princess Mingyue?"
The eldest prince frowned and scolded, and He Xiong immediately shut up, not daring to clash again.
"Sorry, the eldest prince is late. My sister is with someone."
Minghao still responded coldly, unmoved.
The Liang Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty were the neighboring countries of the Yongming Dynasty. King Mingze had always been interested in these two countries during his lifetime.
If these two countries are annexed, the Yongming Dynasty will become a medium-sized country and become powerful immediately. It is not impossible to challenge the Ruifeng Empire in the future.
But
His sister doesn't like the eldest prince!
How could he sell his sister who had shared the joys and sorrows with him?
After he came to the throne, he eliminated his dissidents and did many cruel things, but he still had a bottom line, and his sister was his bottom line.
As long as his sister doesn't want to do something, he can do it to pieces without destroying her.
What's more, his sister seems to like Lu Chen.
In this decisive battle, he knew he had little chance of winning, but he had to fight.
Because he knows that others can surrender, but he cannot. He is the king, and he will die faster if he surrenders.
If we fight, there may be a glimmer of hope, but if we don't fight, we will be dead.
As for what the eldest prince said, whether it is true or false, just listen to it. He will not take it seriously and will not sell his sister.
He came with a large army with the purpose of destroying the country. How could he withdraw his troops for a woman?
The eldest prince is not a fool, and he is not an idiot either!
"I know it's that kid Lu Chen. Sooner or later I will cut him into pieces!"
When Lu Chen was mentioned, the eldest prince's eyes were filled with blazing fire.
"My sister Mingyue is already a woman. The eldest prince should give up on this idea."
Minghao said.
"I won't give up because I don't mind."
The eldest prince said.
"There's nothing you can do if you don't mind. You should just hope for the next life."
Ming Hao couldn't help but have a look of contempt on his face when he saw the eldest prince being so shameless. The future emperor of the powerful Ruifeng Empire turned out to be a guy worse than a beast. The Ruifeng Empire would be over sooner or later.
"No, I only care about this life. No matter what price I pay in this life, I still want to get Princess Mingyue."
The eldest prince has a firm gaze, a resolute attitude, and is extremely domineering.
"You won't get what you want."
Minghao was also determined and would not give in at all.
"Then I will destroy the Yongming Dynasty and rob Princess Mingyue."
The eldest prince's face darkened, revealing his ferocious true colors.
"I will lead the whole country to fight you to the death!"
Minghao said firmly.
"I brought five million strong soldiers, and there are countless strong ones. You only have two million soldiers, and there are very few strong ones. How can you resist?"
The eldest prince said contemptuously.
