Although this agreement, Du Fuwei has preconditions.
If Wagangzhai can be unified and Luoyang is conquered, it will prove that Zhao Mingyuan does have many possibilities to win in his bid for world hegemony.
This is still unknown now, but at least it shows that Du Fuwei is indeed moved, otherwise it would not be possible to make this promise.
However, although long-term goals have been agreed upon, current matters still need to be resolved.
After that, Zhao Mingyuan and Du Fuwei loudly agreed to fight in public. In front of Jingling City and in front of the two armies' formations, in full view of the public, the two agreed to decide the dispute through a contest between the two.
If Zhao Mingyuan wins, Du Fuwei will lead Jianghuai to retreat.
On the other hand, if Du Fuwei wins, then Zhao Mingyuan will also leave with everyone at Pegasus Ranch.
The entire audience held their breath, watching every subtle change between the two of them, knowing that this battle would determine Jingling's fate.
Naturally, the competition between the two of them does not require anyone to be the referee, and there is no one here who is qualified to be the referee for the two of them.
Zhao Mingyuan and Du Fuwei were seen standing face to face, their eyes intertwined, and the atmosphere was tense and intense.
Both of them exuded a strong aura, as if it was about to explode at any time.
The two stood there, the atmosphere became increasingly tense, and the scene was extremely intense.
Suddenly, Zhao Mingyuan took a step forward and took the first shot.
I saw the long sword in his hand suddenly struck out, the sword was like lightning, pointing directly at Du Fuwei's chest.
Du Fuwei still uses his Qiankun in his sleeves, using his sleeves and the arm guards hidden in his sleeves as weapons.
It may seem unbelievable, but the power of Qimen weapons lies in the word "qi". The moves are weird and unpredictable. Once mastered, they will not be inferior to orthodox weapons.
Facing Zhao Mingyuan's move, Du Fuwei was well prepared, flexibly bypassed Zhao Mingyuan's attack, and counterattacked with a unique move. He wrapped his sleeve around Zhao Mingyuan's sword, and then used his arm guard to hit Zhao Mingyuan's shoulder hard.
The moves between the two became faster and harder, and the scene was extremely intense.
The competition lasted for more than a hundred rounds, and both sides had offensive and defensive moments.
Zhao Mingyuan sometimes attacked fiercely and sometimes defended tightly, while Du Fuwei constantly counterattacked with his flexible body skills and unique weapons.
The moves of the two are unpredictable, sometimes as strong as a storm, sometimes as gentle as flowing water, making people dizzy.
Zhao Mingyuan's swordsmanship is changeable. Sometimes he rushes directly towards the opponent, and sometimes he cleverly bypasses the opponent's defense and then suddenly counterattacks.
Every attack is carried with a fierce momentum, which makes people feel frightened.
Du Fuwei was not to be outdone. He used his sleeves and arm guards to continuously counterattack Zhao Mingyuan's offensive.
His moves are very unique, sometimes light and agile, sometimes strong and powerful, making people have to defend tightly.
His movement is also very flexible. Sometimes he flies like a swallow, and sometimes he moves like a monkey, which is elusive.
The two armies above and below the city could not help but be attracted by this scene. They were all watching Zhao Mingyuan and Du Fuwei on the field, and every move they made made people's hearts beat faster.
The competition went on for more than 300 rounds, and both of them seemed to be tired. Their movements were no longer as sharp as they started, and the strong wind seemed to have weakened a bit.
Especially Du Fuwei, who seemed not as young and powerful as Zhao Mingyuan, looked even more decadent, and even his moves were a bit scattered.
Everyone could see that Du Fuwei's defeat seemed to be certain, but the competition was unpredictable, and no one dared to talk about the outcome until the last moment.
After all, Du Fuwei has been in the world for decades and has rich experience. What if he has some trump card that he hasn't used yet?
However, Du Fuwei failed to turn the tide of the battle in the end. In the end, Zhao Mingyuan caught the flaw and cut off Du Fuwei's long sleeve with a sword.
Du Fuwei is known as "the universe in his sleeves", but his sleeves were torn and most of his combat power was naturally damaged, so he was considered a loser.
In front of the two armies, in full view of everyone, Du Fuwei naturally did not lie. He took a few steps back and stepped out of the battle circle, signaling that he had surrendered.
The competition ended with Zhao Mingyuan's victory.
Thunderous cheers rang out from the entire audience. Whether it was the Jingling side or the Jianghuai Army, people cheered for Zhao Mingyuan.
Zhao Mingyuan's victory also adds luster to his plan to conquer the world. The hearts of the soldiers and people of Jingling City are united in him, and Jingling will completely become his.
As for Du Fuwei, although he lost this battle, he did not feel depressed or lost.
On the contrary, he felt that he had gained something from this competition, because he was able to fight hundreds of rounds with the young and powerful Zhao Mingyuan, but in the end he lost one and a half moves due to lack of strength, which also proved his strength.
Therefore, even though the Jianghuai Army who followed him was a little disappointed, they were not disappointed.
After all, Du Fuwei's performance was not bad. In the end, he was defeated by Zhao Mingyuan only due to old age and lack of strength. It was not a crime of war.
This also gained Du Fuwei a lot of face.
After all, in the previous rumors about Peng Cheng's fight for Dongming's account book, there was actually a rumor that he was defeated by Zhao Mingyuan with one move.
At that time, many people thought that Zhao Mingyuan was just an innate cultivation, but he actually defeated Du Fuwei with one move. People couldn't help but wonder about Du Fuwei's strength and whether he, the grandmaster, was a parallel import.
It’s so embarrassing!
Now in front of the competition between the two armies, Du Fuwei finally showed his true ability, making everyone believe that those before were just rumors and not the truth.
He, Du Fuwei, is definitely not weak!
In this battle, Du Fuwei washed away his previous shame and regained his face.
Obviously, Zhao Mingyuan deliberately faked the match to give Du Fuwei face.
Du Fuwei naturally knew this very well.
After all, Du Fuwei gave up the benefits, why can't he still get some face?
Moreover, the final result did not change, it was just that the process made Du Fuwei look better. Why not do it?
Jianghu is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships. What's more, is this a competition for the world?
Having made a covenant in front of everyone, it was naturally impossible for Du Fuwei to go back on it.
He immediately stated that he would admit defeat and be willing to withdraw his troops and return. He immediately received a burst of praise, praising him for keeping his promise and being a good man.
Listening to the praises from the two parties, Du Fuwei looked happy, showing no sign of unwillingness to be defeated.
Now he can finally enjoy the joy of competing for world supremacy. You can’t win anyway, so why bother with so many things? Just be happy.
Listening to the praises, Du Fuwei felt more and more that Zhao Mingyuan was right, and agreed more with his suggestions.
I even thought to myself that Zhao Mingyuan was quite a good person. Maybe I could help him earlier instead of having to wait for him to conquer Luoyang.
Next, Jianghuai's army began to slowly withdraw from the camp. Naturally, it would not be a matter of time to clean up the camp with tens of thousands of people.
Therefore, everyone in Jingling was still on guard, fearing that Du Fuwei would suddenly regret and attack them unprepared.
Fortunately, until Du Fuwei led the Jianghuai army to retreat, nothing like this happened.
During this period, Du Fuwei and Zhao Mingyuan naturally would not just wait.
The two of them even sent someone to bring a banquet, so they just had a drink together under Jingling City, which was considered as fulfilling the agreement of the day.
During the banquet, the two of them exchanged glasses and chatted.
Du Fuwei simply asked Zhao Mingyuan how he would govern and treat the people of the world if he gained the world.
This was considered a teaching test, so Zhao Mingyuan told him his plan.
After hearing Zhao Mingyuan's policy strategy, Du Fuwei naturally understood that Zhao Mingyuan was digging at the roots of the family.
Du Fuwei couldn't help but said: "Brother Zhao, your plan is admirable, but this road is not easy to follow."
Zhao Mingyuan smiled and said: "I have a good heart, and even though I died nine times, I still have no regrets.
Moreover, if you are in the right way, you will get a lot of help, but if you are not in the right way, you will get little help.
Compared with those high-ranking officials, there are more common people in the world, so what do I have to fear? "
After hearing Zhao Mingyuan's impassioned words, Du Fuwei drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, threw the glass and said, "Done!
I have long disliked those high-ranking officials. Lao Du, I was also born in the rebel army. How could I not know the sufferings of the people?
Brother Zhao, don't worry, I will definitely be on your side.
There’s no need to wait for you to conquer Luoyang. If you want me to help you, whether it’s publicly supporting you or dealing with Li Mi, just ask! "
Zhao Mingyuan said: "Brother Du, don't panic.
This matter is not urgent, it needs to be discussed in the long run!
When the eldest brother goes back, he just needs to stand still and put the Jianghuai Army in order. "
After calming down the excited Du Fuwei, Zhao Mingyuan suddenly thought of something and said: "As for helping, I really have a favor here and need Brother Du's help."
Du Fuwei said boldly: "Brother Zhao, just ask, as long as you can do it, Lao Du, I will definitely help you!"
"The younger brother has taken a fancy to a talent under Brother Du and wants him to help the younger brother." After all, it was poaching, Zhao Mingyuan replied with some embarrassment.
Du Fuwei couldn't help but feel strange that he was willing to help Zhao Mingyuan with a clear banner, but he didn't immediately agree. He just told himself to stand still and asked for someone instead.
How could he not know when he had such a great talent under his banner?
So, Du Fuwei asked curiously: "Who is he? Which general of my Jianghuai Army does brother like?"
Zhao Mingyuan said: "His name is Li Jing. He is not a general, not even a military leader. He is just an ordinary soldier in the Jianghuai Army."
After listening to Zhao Mingyuan's words, Du Fuwei couldn't help but sigh and said: "Since Brother Zhao said so and even made a special trip to ask me for it, it seems that this Li Jing is indeed somewhat capable!"
The reason why Du Fuwei sighed was naturally because Li Jing was talented, and he was not even a military leader in his own army.
It seems that running the army by myself is indeed a mess. Even if there are talents, they cannot be used by themselves, which is a dereliction of duty on their own.
From this point of view, it is indeed impossible for him to unify the world!
Thinking of this, Du Fuwei became more determined to support Zhao Mingyuan.
Du Fuwei immediately ordered that all the people named Li Jing in the army be brought here.
