Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 571 If the Prince of Qi intends to rebel, what a disaster that would be! [4 chapters, please vote!]

April 1st was a very overcast day.

Dark clouds loomed, and a storm seemed imminent, but the primary elections still proceeded as scheduled.

Zong Baoguo and his son Zong Fang arrived at the small training ground early in the morning, only to find it already packed with people.

Not only did the heroes who successfully registered become spectators, but those who failed to register also became bystanders.

With the addition of local residents, the small drill ground was packed with people, shoulder to shoulder, just like a market day.

After Zong Baoguo, Zong Fang, and Qi Jun verified their waist tags, they joined the queue of contestants.

The heroes of the martial arts world were all attending such a grand event for the first time, and they were all excitedly whispering among themselves.

It would be normal for them to make a lot of noise, but right now they're just buzzing around like flies.

Zong Baoguo knew that this was because the environment in Qingzhou had unconsciously fostered a sense of discipline.

When everyone is whispering, even the most outspoken person will unconsciously lower their voice.

These heroes of the martial arts world came from all corners of the country, yet they managed to cultivate such discipline in Qingzhou...

Zong Baoguo dared not even think about how terrifying the Qi army was; just thinking about it made his whole body tremble!
"Boom! Boom!"

Just then, the sound of horses' hooves thundered like a tidal wave from the entrance of the training ground!
The earth hummed, deafeningly loud!
Zong Baoguo subconsciously looked towards the entrance of the small training ground, where he saw a cavalry unit marching in neat formation!
All were dressed in crimson armor, all were dressed in crimson riding clothes, and even the horses were all crimson!

When this cavalry army marched in perfect formation, it was as if a raging sea of ​​blood was about to sweep across the world!
"Blood Dragon Rider!"

Someone nearby exclaimed in a low voice, "King Qi has two personal guards: the infantry with broadswords and the cavalry with blood-red dragon cavalry!"

Someone else said, "These Blood Dragon Cavalry are invincible! Our Great Song Dynasty has never had such an awe-inspiring cavalry!"

Some people say, "I wonder how the Blood Dragon Cavalry of Qi compares to the Leather Chamber Army of Liao and the Iron Falcons of Western Xia..."

"Absolutely no less impressive!"

Zong Baoguo stared at the Blood Dragon Riders, his eyes filled with greed:
"It just hasn't been tested in war yet..."

Although he spoke conservatively, Zong Baoguo believed that the Blood Dragon Cavalry was comparable to the Leather Chamber Army and the Iron Falcons.

If he becomes the commander of this army, then the Liao, Jin, and Western Xia kingdoms will all be damned!

Blood Dragon slowed down at the entrance of the small training ground, revealing a king in golden armor at the head.

Zong Baoguo looked closely and indeed the king in golden armor and helmet bore a striking resemblance to the Duke of Guan.

However, in terms of imposing presence, it falls far short. This king, clad in golden armor, surveys the world with an aura that seems to swallow mountains and rivers.

In comparison, even in his official robes, Guan Cheng looked like an executioner…

"May the King be mighty! May the King be mighty! May the King be mighty!"

When the king, clad in golden armor, stood at the entrance of the small training ground, all the Qi soldiers raised their arms and shouted in unison!
At the same time, what shocked Zong Baoguo was that most of the onlookers were raising their arms and shouting:

"May the King be mighty! May the King be mighty! May the King be mighty!"

These are all local residents!
A small number of onlookers were heroes who had failed to register, but they were also swept up by public opinion and couldn't help but raise their arms and shout.

Of course, their numbers are small and negligible compared to the tens of thousands of local residents.

Zong Baoguo could hardly believe his eyes or his ears:

real or fake?

Even Emperor Huizong of Song didn't have this much prestige in Kaifeng; there were countless people who criticized him behind his back!
However, Zong Baoguo could tell that the Qi soldiers and civilians who were raising their arms and shouting were all speaking from the heart!

He looked around and saw faces full of passion and heard shouts that were hoarse and desperate!
The enthusiastic atmosphere was so infectious that he couldn't help but raise his arms and shout along...

It was as if he would become an oddity in the crowd, out of step with the world, if he didn't raise his arms and shout... While raising his arms and shouting "Zong Baoguo!", he secretly thought to himself:
If the King of Qi were to plot a rebellion, what would become of him?
Beside him stood a tall but very thin man who couldn't help but raise his arms and shout.

Hearing that his accent sounded like he was from Tokyo, Zong Baoguo exchanged a glance with him and nodded.

At the same time, the three strangely shaped, burly men among the contestants exchanged glances.

More accurately, the big eyes and the big nose looked at the giant Yaksha at the same time.

The giant yaksha shook his head slightly, and while raising his arm, he said to them:
"Do you see those two generals beside King Qi?"

The big eyes and big nose then looked at the two generals flanking King Qi:
One had a leopard's head, round eyes, a swallow's chin, and a tiger's whiskers; the other had a leopard's head, round eyes, and a goat's beard.

The two generals each wielded a ten-foot-long spear and rode a black cloud-treading snow steed, exuding a majestic and murderous aura!
The big-eyed giant and the big-nosed giant both nodded, and the giant whispered in their ears:

"These two generals might be no less capable than me!"

"hiss--"

The big-eyed person and the big-nosed person couldn't help but gasp:
What should we do then?
The giant yaksha fell silent, only raising his arms and shouting:
"May the King be mighty! May the King be mighty! May the King be mighty!"

Big Eyes and Big Nose then raised their arms and shouted, and the same voice echoed throughout the entire training ground.

Cai Fu was very satisfied with this, and without realizing it, he was becoming more and more accustomed to this atmosphere.

With a calm wave of his hand, Cai Fu shouted loudly:

"All of you heroes have come to uphold the prestige of our nation!"

"You have worked hard!"

"Oooooooo-"

With just this one sentence, all the heroes of the martial arts world roared with excitement, as if they had been injected with chicken blood!

As for?
Zong Baoguo couldn't understand why the heroes of the martial arts world were so excited by King Qi's simple words.
His son, Zong Fang, was rather simple-minded and asked directly. The skinny, burly man next to him excitedly replied:
"Have you not heard of 'Cai Dao Wang's Three Disturbances in Daming Prefecture' and 'Cai Dao Wang's Four Disturbances in Kaifeng Prefecture'?"

"You've never even heard of the saying, 'I wield the knife right under the emperor's nose, and I can slice off the Grand Commandant's ear with a single stroke'?"

At this point, the gaunt man suddenly became alert:
"Are you people from the Song Dynasty? You don't even know this?"

Seeing that he was about to be mistaken for a spy, Zong Baoguo quickly explained:

“We used to live in seclusion deep in the mountains…”

"I see!"

The gaunt man believed Zong Baoguo: "Old man, you don't know this, but the King of Qi is the greatest hero in the world!"

"He not only killed Liang Zhongshu, but also cut off Gao Qiu's ear, and even defeated the Jin Dynasty's strongman..."

"what?"

Zong Baoguo was stunned. He hadn't expected so many things to happen during his two years of seclusion.

After being given a lecture by the burly, thin man, Zong Baoguo understood why the heroes of the martial arts world so revered King Qi.

King Qi is practically living the life every chivalrous hero dreams of!
After being given so much information by the skinny, burly man, Zong Baoguo thanked him and then asked:
May I ask your esteemed name?

The gaunt, burly man said, "My name is Wang... Jing!"

Just then, the general under King Qi, with his leopard-like head, round eyes, swallow-like chin, and tiger-like beard, shouted loudly:
"Prepare for the primary election!"
