Returning after three years of reincarnation in the world of martial arts

Chapter 268
All the ministers and princes, no!Now it should be said that it is the kings.

Everyone looked at Li Zhongwu subconsciously, and then they all bent down and cupped their hands, shouting: "Meet the son-in-law!!"

The voice fell, and suddenly an old minister raised an objection, "Your Majesty! Now that you have ascended the throne, a son-in-law should not be a son-in-law, but...in the history of more than 1000 years, there has never been a queen, so I don't know what we should call you." His Majesty's husband?"

Everyone: "???"

Yuan Miaoyu was also stunned.

This is indeed a problem. When she was originally a princess, her husband was called a son-in-law, but now that she has ascended the throne, it must be wrong to call her a son-in-law.

So here comes the question - what should I call Li Zhongwu?
Yuan Miaoyu frowned and looked at Li Zhongwu, a little dazed.

The people below also straightened their waists with weird expressions, and some people smiled and entered the state of watching a show, wanting to see how Yuan Miaoyu, who had just ascended the throne, would deal with this problem.

"Your Majesty! Why don't you give Mr. Li a Marquis!"

The Minister of Rites suddenly proposed.

Marquis?

For the convenience of addressing, directly seal the Marquis?Is this too hasty?Many people frowned and looked at the Minister of Rites.

On the other hand, Yuan Miaoyu's eyes lit up on the dragon chair, and she said with a smile: "My husband, how could he be just a little prince?"

Before anyone could answer, she raised her chin slightly and said loudly, "Li Zhongwu accepts the order!"

Li Zhongwu, who was leaning on the golden pillar, frowned, because he knew that he had to kneel to receive the order, but he couldn't bend his knees when asked to kneel for his wife.

Even if Yuan Miaoyu had ascended the throne, he couldn't convince himself to kneel down to her.

At that moment, he narrowed his eyes and made a crazy decision in his heart.

He glanced coldly at everyone in the hall, turned his back away from the golden pillar, bowed slightly to Yuan Miaoyu and cupped his hands, "Li Zhongwu accepts the order!"

He will stand to receive the order.

He wanted to look at the people in the hall, who would dare to accuse him of being rude?
Anyway, his wife has already ascended the throne, and whoever dares to jump out and criticize him, he will reward him with a saber spirit. He doesn't believe that Yuan Miaoyu will not deal with the aftermath.

He also didn't believe that Yuan Miaoyu would turn against him because he didn't kneel down to accept the order.

Without him, Li Zhongwu, to protect her, would she be able to sit on the throne securely?
Yuan Miaoyu saw that he bowed to accept the order, but did not kneel down, her face changed slightly, and she subconsciously glanced at the people in the hall.

Everyone in the hall saw Li Zhongwu accepting the order like this, and all of them changed their expressions.

Some people subconsciously opened their mouths to scold, but... the words came to their lips, and they swallowed them back.

Scold the queen's husband?Do you think you are tired of living?

What's more, almost everyone in the hall knows about Li Zhongwu's recent achievements.

Even if he didn't know that he had killed Utsu Yayoi, the sword master of Shenfeng Kingdom, and Ren Hebin, one of the seven great priests, tonight, Yan Bingqing, Yan Yuzhen, Yuan Weitao, Tao Yu and others he had killed successively before were scary enough up.

Li Zhongwu saw that everyone in the hall was very understanding, and no one jumped out to criticize him, so a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, thinking: Those who can be high officials are indeed not brainless.

Seeing that no one accused Li Zhongwu, Yuan Miaoyu was also relieved.

The smile resumed immediately, and he said: "Li Zhongwu! You have outstanding martial arts and amazing combat power. You successively killed disobedient Yan Bingqing, Yan Yuzhen, Yuan Weitao, Tao Yu, Ren Hebin, and Shenfeng Kingdom's assassin Utsu Yayoi for the country. Not only have you made outstanding achievements, but you have never lost a single defeat, today... I officially canonize you as King Wu! You are authorized to see me not to worship!"

Everyone in the hall: "???"

Some people were surprised that Yuan Miaoyu directly named Li Zhongwu a prince.

Some people were surprised that Li Zhongwu's record also included Ren Hebin, the God of Thunder, and Yayoi Utsu, the sword master of Yixiantian?
Yayoi Utsu, who was so famous, died at the hands of Li Zhongwu?When did this happen?With Utsuyayoi's fame and strength, did she die so quietly?

King Wu?Li Zhongwu thought these two words lightly in his mind, and he was very satisfied with Yuan Miaoyu's last sentence, "You are authorized to see me and not to worship".

As for King Wu, he didn't care.

His wife is the queen, so what's the difference between being king or not?
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

He thanked him anyway, then stood up.

All the people in the hall suddenly bowed their hands to him, shouting in unison: "I have seen King Wu!"

Li Zhongwu looked over, smiled, and bowed his hands, "You are welcome!"

……

In the Dayan Palace, when Yuan Miaoyu ascended the throne and Li Zhongwu became king.

In the northern border of Dayan, on the road between Boulder City and Karma City of Shenfeng Country, the alien beast army led by Matsuyama Shinji is rushing to Boulder City in the starry night.

One hundred thousand troops and many strange beasts advanced at full speed.

On both sides of the mighty army, there were strange beasts of different sizes... The big ones seemed to take every step very slowly, but every step they took could cover a distance of seven or eight meters.

Small in size, but very flexible in stature, they all ran wildly in the wilderness by the roadside.

In the night sky, there are also huge birds, constantly circling around the army on guard.

There is that giant eagle, when the wings are flapped, the grass more than ten meters below the feet is flapped, with a wingspan of 20 meters.

Shinji Matsuyama sat in the car and marched with the army.

Suddenly, the adjutant sitting in the co-pilot's seat answered a phone call and reported back to Shinji Matsuyama: "General! Jushi City should have received the news that we are planning a night attack. The news just came from the front that the bridge three miles ahead was destroyed. It collapsed, looking at the fracture marks of the broken bridge, it should have just collapsed tonight."

Shinji Matsuyama leaned on the sword in both hands, his face remained unchanged when he heard the words, and he said casually: "Order the broadback beast to rush over to build the bridge immediately!"

The adjutant responded, and made a call with a military mobile phone to convey Matsuyama Shinji's order.

Soon, in the wilderness on both sides of the road, giant beasts with extremely thick backs immediately accelerated their staggering steps and rushed forward.

Not long after, dozens of broad-backed beasts with a back width of about four or five meters came to a broken bridge.

A large river about 30 meters wide lies here. On this large river, there used to be a concrete bridge leading to the road on the other side, but now the bridge has collapsed, leaving only the bridgeheads on both banks.

"Build a bridge!!"

An officer gave orders to the dozens of broadbacks that had just rushed to the river.

These broad-backed beasts have huge bodies, but their heads seem a little small. At this time, they heard the order, and they stepped into the rushing river one by one.

The rushing river made their bodies shake slightly, but it was only slightly shaking.

I saw them swimming slowly to the other side.

Eventually, one by one, they form a bridge of their backs across the river.

Dozens of broad-backed beasts joined head to tail and leaned side to side to form this meat bridge.

This is one of the uses of the Alien Beast Legion.

On the other side of the river, behind a big rock, several heads poked out from the side of the big rock, holding binoculars, looking at the scene in the river, suddenly, a person sighed: "The grass is on the horse! We used so many explosives to blow up this bridge. , was rebuilt by these beasts in such a short period of time? These strange beasts are so big, why do they obey the orders of humans from Shenfeng Kingdom?"

The other person also sighed, and said: "Shenfeng State has beast masters, and beast masters have the ability to tame strange beasts, don't you know?"

The third person said in a deep voice: "The Alien Beast Legion... It seems that there are more than a dozen alien beasts in this army, each of which has a different function. The higher-ups asked us to cause trouble for them along the way, delaying their arrival at the Boulder City Now it seems that it will be very difficult for us to complete this task.”

After a pause, the man said again: "Don't be stupid! Get ready to fire! Try to see if you can kill these beasts in the river!"

As he spoke, he first picked up his own gun and began to load the bullets.

Seeing this, more than a dozen other people raised their guns one after another.

A few seconds later, with the sound of "fire", there was a rapid gunshot, and bullets were shot at the dozens of broadbacks in the river that were using their broadbacks to build bridges.

In an instant, bullets hit the broad backs of these broad-backed beasts.

The sound of clanging metal collisions sounded immediately, and the sparks of metal collisions also flew around.

The troops on the other side, who were about to cross the river, immediately fell to the ground like wheat waves blown by the wind.

Soon began to fire back on the river side.

"Grass! There are steel plates on the backs of these strange beasts? Is this to prevent someone from attacking these strange beasts?"

Among the people who were shooting behind Dashi, someone cursed bitterly.

There were too many troops on the opposite bank, and the bullets fired were too dense. The dense rain of bullets had already made the people behind the boulder unable to lift their heads. They could only hide their heads under the boulder, point their guns at the opposite bank, and shoot indiscriminately.

"Chirp..."

At this moment, a sharp eagle cry suddenly came from midair.

The dozen or so people hiding behind the boulder raised their faces and looked at the dark night sky.

When they saw hundreds of giant eagles flying densely in the night sky, the expressions of the dozen or so people changed drastically.

Not only because there are too many giant eagles in the night sky at this time, but also because each of these giant eagles has a wingspan of 20 meters.

At first glance, it looks like a group of first-generation fighters are attacking in groups.

"Grass! Let's get rid of these flat-haired beasts first!!"

The person who gave the order before gave the order loudly again.

At the sound of the order, he himself first raised the muzzle of his gun and shot at the giant eagle flying across the night sky.

However, the giant eagle is flying, its wingspan is so wide, and its flying speed is extremely fast, how can it be so easy to be shot?

"Bang bang bang..."

A dozen or so people behind the big stone raised their guns and shot at the giant eagles flying in groups in the night sky.

Suddenly, a figure protruded slightly from the backs of the giant eagles, and bullets shot down from the backs of the giant eagles.

"Grass!! There are people on the backs of these flat-haired beasts? Everyone hide!!"

The leader cursed angrily and hid under the boulder, and the others also hid under the boulder one after another.

but……

The space under this boulder is very limited. After three people hide in, others cannot hide in.

Then, a tragic scene appeared - the other dozen people who couldn't hide under the boulder were constantly shot, and some were lucky enough to be shot in the head, and fell down neatly as soon as they rolled their eyes.

Some people were unlucky, and fell down slowly after being shot by bullets so that blood bloomed on their bodies.

When hundreds of giant eagles flew over the boulder, more than a dozen corpses had fallen beside the boulder, and only the first three people who hid under the boulder survived.

The three of them looked at the dead bodies of more than a dozen comrades-in-arms in front of them. All three of them had dull eyes, and one of them was trembling all over.

The dozen or so comrades who fought side by side with them just now died in front of them in just one or two breaths, which had a great psychological impact on them.

A dozen lives were lost just like that.

This makes them intuitively feel that death is so close to them, but their lives are so close, a bullet worth no more than a tea egg can kill a living person.

"Team, captain, what should we do? Shall we fight again?"

Trembling, one tremblingly asked.

The other person couldn't help but look at the captain.

The captain looked at them and saw that they had no fighting spirit. In fact, the courage in his heart was also broken.

Dayan has been in peace for decades, and all the soldiers of Dayan have never really fought a battle. Such a tragic scene scared the three of them.

"Let's go! Let's hurry to join the brigade! Report the situation here to the brigade leader as soon as possible! Go!"

As the captain said, he was the first to climb out from under the boulder.

Seeing this, how could the other two dare to stay?Quickly follow.

……

time flies.

The Alien Beast Legion continued to move forward. Although the defenders of Boulder City harassed them from time to time along the way, the small group of defenders could not stop the mighty Alien Beast Legion at all.

Most of the small group of harassing defenders died under the attacks of various alien beasts.

The alien beasts of the Alien Beast Legion are often combined with warriors. There are warriors on the back of the giant eagle, and there are warriors on the back of the tiger...

At the beginning of four o'clock in the morning, an army of one hundred thousand and many strange beasts appeared near the north gate of Boulder City.

As the city closest to the Shenfeng Kingdom in the northern border of Dayan, Great Stone City, Dayan had already built Giant Stone City into a border fortress.

One of the characteristics of the border fortress is that there is an open space outside the city gate, and there is not a single decent tree within ten miles.

At this time, on the head of the North Gate, the defenders of Boulder City are already in full battle.

More than a dozen military officers gathered together, each observing the alien beast army two or three miles away from the city with the binoculars in their hands.

Every officer's face is very dignified.

Because the Alien Beast Legion came here, they kept receiving news from the army sent out to harass and delay the Alien Beast Legion.

The number of alien beast legions, the fighting abilities and methods of various alien beasts... etc., all made their hearts heavy as if they were being crushed by a boulder.

Especially the number of Alien Beast Legion - 10 people, far exceeds the number of defenders in Boulder City.

With this gap in numbers, plus more than a dozen different beasts with different abilities, how to fight?
"General! When will our reinforcements arrive?"

A school lieutenant suddenly asked in a deep voice.

The general standing at the front didn't seem to hear it, and was still observing the Alien Beast Army with the binoculars. After a while, when he slowly put down the binoculars, he whispered: "The war hasn't started yet, so ask when the reinforcements will arrive?" ? The court has supported us for so long, is it for us to eat dry food? Although there are many enemy troops, we have to hold out for at least a few days before we are qualified to ask when the reinforcements will arrive!"
