From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

Chapter 209: Overlord Lifts the Tripod; Preparations for the Expedition

Xiang Yu and Ma Quan looked at him, and the former smiled and said, "Okay, then it's up to you!"

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ma Quan did not show any fear, and said coldly: "Let's compete, I have never been afraid of anyone since I was a child!"

Seeing that they all agreed, the village chief finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

This move of his was brilliant, as he successfully turned a melee that was about to break out into a regulated and restrained duel, thus saving Yujia Town.

After all, if hundreds of people started fighting, all these houses would have to be demolished.

And the most important point is that it can successfully protect a group of able-bodied men. No matter who wins or loses between Xiang Yu and Ma Quan, Yujia Town will not be emptied.

Of course, this action was also very dangerous. If one of these two people had a worse temper, he might have chopped him on the spot.

Is it okay for a small village head to interfere in matters between generals?!
Fortunately, he won the bet.

"Tell me, how do you want to compare?"

Xiang Yu looked at Ma Quan and said calmly.

"It's all up to you. You decide." The latter would naturally not lose face.

"My two generals, you are both heroes. Why don't we let me, an old man, decide the content of the competition?"

The village chief wiped the sweat off his forehead, chuckled, and pointed to the huge tripod at the entrance of the town: "That is the huge tripod that has existed in our Yujia Town for more than 300 years. It was cast by our ancestors during a sacrifice to the heavens one year, and it weighs 6,800 kilograms."

"Two generals, the content of the competition is this tripod. Whoever can lift it will win. How do you think?"

As soon as these words were spoken, many soldiers burst into laughter.

"Old man, you underestimate us warriors. Not to mention a general in the Qi Conservation Realm, even I can lift him easily!"

"That's all he can touch in his lifetime."

……

Six thousand eight hundred kilograms is not difficult for warriors above the Tongjing realm, let alone the Cangqi realm.

The village chief's face suddenly turned red, looking embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Yu said, "You can compete, but you don't need spiritual energy."

Upon hearing this, the whole place fell silent. The people were still unclear about what he meant, but many soldiers were shocked.

Without spiritual energy, you can lift these 6,800 kilograms with your physical body alone?
how can that be!

A warrior's body is stronger than that of an ordinary person, but at best it is only two or three times stronger. The real difference lies in qi, blood, and spiritual energy.

Without these two blessings, how could physical strength possibly lift over 6,000 kilograms?

Ma Quan was also shocked by his words and said coldly: "Xiang Yu, are you crazy? Who can lift more than 6,000 kilograms without spiritual energy?"

"Of course, I can."

"You are talking nonsense. Not to mention us, even those at the Zhenwu realm can't do it!"

"Just because you can't do it doesn't mean I can't do it."

"it is good!"

Ma Quan showed a fierce look on his face and said in a deep voice: "Since you are so confident, I will give you a chance. If you can really lift it, all these men today will belong to your Xiang family!"

"On the contrary, if you can't do it, then everything will belong to the Ma family!"

"It is settled."

Xiang Yu responded calmly, then clenched his fists and looked at the huge tripod with eyes that gradually became hot.

"Take off the armor."

At his command, the soldiers behind him quickly helped him take off his armor, leaving him with only a white undershirt. He walked to the giant tripod with his sleeves rolled up and knocked on it a few times.

"You brought disgrace upon yourself, let's see how it ends for you later!"

Ma Quan couldn't help but sneer when he saw this, with a playful look in his eyes, not worried at all that he would lose the bet.

That's 6,800 kilograms. No one in the world can lift it with physical strength alone, not even the Wei Wuzu!
How could a young man from a noble family like him have the courage to make such a bet?

It's just pretending.

Bang bang!

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Xiang Yu finally stopped beside the giant tripod, bent down, and placed his hands on the upper and lower parts of the tripod.

The pupil of his left eye trembled slightly, and his handsome face was full of determination.

Xiang Yu exerted force instantly, and the white undershirt on his body began to swell at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it was about to be torn by his muscles.

Kaka~
The ground cracked and sank as Xiang Yu continued to exert force, which made people's scalp tingle.

In an instant, the expression on Ma Quan's face froze.

"rise!"

Xiang Yu let out a low roar, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, the giant tripod actually began to leave the ground on all four legs!
Drink!

The huge tripod slowly tilted and rose in the air, and Xiang Yu's clothes were finally torn apart, revealing his muscles full of blue veins. The ferocious bull tattoo on his chest seemed to come alive, and let out bursts of low roars.

The next moment, Xiang Yu suddenly stood up straight, and the giant tripod stopped above his head in front of everyone, blocking the sunlight and making them gasp!
It actually lifted up!

"Oh my god, this is a divine man! This is a divine man!"

"It took twenty people to lift this huge tripod! The last flood couldn't wash it away, but he actually lifted it up by himself!"

"Appalling, appalling!"

……

Yu Miaoxi covered her mouth tightly in the crowd, her eyes wide open with pupils shrinking, she was so surprised that she couldn't speak. "Ma Quan, you lost."

Xiang Yu gritted his teeth and uttered a few words, then slowly put the huge tripod down. This slight movement of putting it down made Ma Quan's eyelids twitch and the corners of his mouth twitch.

Is this still a human being?!

He never thought that Xiang Yu could actually do it, which completely blew his mind!

Even the most advanced body-building technique in all of China wouldn't be able to allow people to reach this level, right?

There are actually people who are born with supernatural powers!

Ma Quan was completely enlightened. Seeing that Xiang Yu was just breathing rapidly and was not injured, he finally swallowed his reluctance.

"They are yours."

……

Xianyang, Wu Mansion.

A millstone was moving up and down in the air, and a shirtless young man was constantly moving it up and down.

The stone mill weighing more than two thousand kilograms seemed weightless in his hands and he could lift and put it down with ease.

However, Wu Fengdeng was still somewhat dissatisfied with this.

thump~
The millstone fell to the ground, and Qingdai, who was standing beside him, hurriedly took a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his face.

"It's still a little light, far from enough for me to test the limits of my physical body. I have to find some bronze tripods to try."

Wu Fengdeng said with a sigh.

Ever since his body was transformed by Kongo Wan, he had used some special medicines and exercised to consolidate his adaptation, but he had been unable to find the limits of his current physical body.

"Is this still light? It's the heaviest thing I can find at home~" Qingdai smiled bitterly.

"Let's try again another day. Do I have any plans today?"

"No, according to your instructions, the Fire Armor Army and the City Defense Army are under full supervision, and nothing has happened in the past few days."

Since Wu Fengdeng was promoted to the Qi Conservation Realm, he has focused most of his energy on cultivation. He handed over military affairs to Li Qun and Qiao Zhanbo, and has completely become a hands-off boss.

In fact, this is a good thing. He can focus on improving his own strength, and Li Qun and others can also practice their ability to lead troops. After all, Wu Fengdeng cannot be good at everything, and they will have to rely on them to command the troops in the future.

"I'm going to the Jixia Academy. If anyone is looking for me, tell them to go look for me there."

Wu Fengdeng gave an order and then flew into the air.

As the war was about to begin, he went to visit his adoptive father Wei Zhe as usual and asked him about his opinion on the war.

However, Wei Zhe did not seem to want to say much, and just gave a few instructions. However, looking at his solemn expression, Wu Fengdeng knew very well that he knew something in advance, but was just not in a position to say it.

In this way, he became more cautious.

Compared with the previous three wars between Han, Zhao and Wei, the difficulty of fighting against Chu is undoubtedly far beyond theirs, so this war will definitely be extremely dangerous.

Especially now that he is standing at the center of the storm, the danger has been magnified countless times, so he must be even more careful.

After getting the answer he wanted, Wu Fengdeng said goodbye and came to the Taoist family’s residence.

In the bamboo pavilion, Jiang Qiyu leaned lightly on his shoulder, her slender hands embedded in his palms. Beside them were a wooden bridge, green trees, gurgling water, and a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

"We will have to leave in a few days, Qiyu, would you like to go with me?"

She nodded slightly and said slowly: "Chu is dangerous, of course I have to go with you."

"Does Master Yisu agree?"

"Yes, now I am no longer bound by rules and regulations. I can go out at any time. I just need to report to my master in advance."

Jiang Qiyu is now in the Cangqi Realm, and his combat power is far beyond his peers. No matter from which aspect, he is infinitely close to the level of Taoist elders. Naturally, those rules for worldly disciples are no longer valid.

Moreover, for her, what she lacks most now is experience. Although the bloody battlefield is inconsistent with Taoist philosophy, it is not a big deal.

"That's good. You can continue as usual these few days. I will come to pick you up in advance on the day of departure."

Wu Fengdeng smiled and then chatted until the evening when he left the Jixia Academy.

That night, Han Fei submitted the strategic plan for the war against Chu.

It was still the veteran general Wang Jian who went into battle, and together with Li Xin and Yang Duanhe, a total of 300,000 generals led the army.

The attack was divided into two routes. One route was from Nanjun, attacking Danyang County on the border of Chu from the east. The other route was from Yingchuan County to the south. After the two routes merged, they would focus on attacking the heartland of Chu.

As usual, Wu Fengdeng was assigned to Wang Jian's army, leading 20,000 fire armor troops and 30,000 city defense troops. He was ranked second only to Wang Jian and was the second most important figure in the bottom lane. Even Wang Ben, Wang Xu and others were behind him.

There is no other reason, everything depends on the capable ones.

"This time it's not just a small fight for a city or a piece of land. We need to be in the center of the army and win the battle thousands of miles away."

Wu Fengdeng was deeply moved by this.

I never thought that one day I would be able to sit in such a central military position, without having to charge into battle and fight like before.

More needs to be done with your brain.

Wu Fengdeng immediately put aside his plan and came to the city defense army’s base.

At this time, there were two generals in the Qi Conservation Realm under his city defense army, one was Qiao Zhanbo, and the other was Meng Zhenfeng, a member of the Meng family. Considering the needs of city defense, Wu Fengdeng only took Qiao Zhanbo with him in this battle.

In this way, his 50,000 troops will be commanded by two people in the Qi Storage Realm. In the future, the ordinary tasks of leading the team can be handed over to Qiao Zhanbo, and he will not have to do everything himself.

As for the 30,000 soldiers, Wu Fengdeng selected the most elite A, B, and C battalions from the entire army, and assigned seven deputy generals. Including the five men from the Fire Armor Army, the number of deputy generals reached twelve.

Two main generals of the Cangqi Realm, twelve deputy generals of the Tuodan Realm, and 50,000 troops, this is all the troops that Wu Fengdeng has for this trip. (End of this chapter)
