A thousand-year-old family begins with one fighting against ten thousand.

"Holy crap! Who has no sense of public decency?!"

"It hurts like hell!"

Wei Ping rubbed his head and looked angrily at the white jade gourd on the ground.

"Blood!"

After rubbing his head, Wei Ping looked at the blood on his hands and gasped, feeling a little dizzy.

Because of the cold air, Wei Ping was dizzy and didn't notice that the white jade gourd on the ground flashed with blood-red light, then emitted a shimmering jade light, and finally turned into a stream of light that entered Wei Ping's mind.

At the same time, a piece of information appeared in Wei Ping's mind.

Wei Ping then realized that this wasn't bad luck, but rather a stroke of incredible luck.

This gourd was actually grown from the legendary gourd vine. Although it wasn't a first-generation innate gourd, it was still a treasure.

Along with the white jade gourd, two other gourds also emerged, the three gourds respectively subtly representing the fate of the nation, the fate of the clan, and the fate of the people.

The white jade gourd is a precious treasure born from the family's good fortune.

Inside this gourd lies a chaotic world. If Wei Ping has the strength, he can use the gourd's power to create a blessed land within it as the foundation of his family.

Unfortunately, Wei Ping didn't.

The gourd also gave Wei Ping another solution: to rely on the power of the family's fortune.

This gourd can transport Wei Ping to two thousand years ago, allowing him to establish a powerful family there and continuously expand the space inside the gourd by leveraging the family's fortune.

"Takeoff from Wuhu!"

After Wei Ping made his decision, the gourd took him into the river of time before he could prepare for the journey.

......

In the seventh year of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, personally led a large army to attack the Xiongnu and suppress the rebellion of Han Wang Xin (not Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin). He did not heed the advice of the physician Liu Jing, underestimated the enemy and advanced recklessly, and was surrounded by 400,000 elite Xiongnu cavalry at Baideng Mountain.

Wei Ping traveled to this time and became a captain under Liu Bang. He was also named Wei Ping and his courtesy name was Zi'an.

"It's so cold!"

Liu Bang, wearing a cloak, sat on the ground by the fire, constantly breathing on his palms and rubbing his hands together.

"Sit down, sit down, don't be shy. There are no emperors or soldiers here, only Liu Bang and his gang of brothers."

Even in his most destitute state, Liu Bang still had his own residence.

But Liu Bang knew that the army's morale was low and he couldn't stay there.

Just as everyone was hesitating and at a loss, Wei Ping came out, sat down next to Liu Bang, and stretched out his hands to warm them by the fire.

Seeing this, the others also sat down, looking at Liu Bang with burning eyes.

This was an emperor, the third emperor in history, the ruler of the world.

He just sat there without any airs, calling these peasants brothers.

Are you scared?

Liu Bang had a wine jar brought out, took a big gulp, and handed it to Wei Ping.

"I'm not afraid."

Wei Ping laughed heartily, raised the wine jar, and drank heartily.

"We are not afraid, we are not afraid either, we swear to follow Your Majesty to the death!"

The soldiers picked up the wine that had been given to them, raised their bowls to Liu Bang, and gulped it down.

Liu Bang was taken aback, then sighed softly, looking at the rosy-cheeked people around him. It was his underestimation of the enemy and his reckless advance that had harmed these soldiers.

"Life is what I desire, but there are things I desire more than life, so I will not seek to preserve it by any means; death is what I abhor, but there are things I abhor more than death, so there are calamities I will not avoid."

Wei Ping said softly.

"Your Majesty, I have two solutions that can resolve our current predicament."

"Speak quickly."

Liu Bang's voice was urgent.

"From my observation, the Xiongnu Chanyu is too arrogant, and he actually brought his clansmen with him in the army."

"Moreover, they take a walk every day in a scenic spot at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by many protectors."

"The best course of action is for me to lead Your Majesty and the army to break out in the opposite direction, join forces with the army outside the encirclement, and then the army will jointly attack the Xiongnu."

"The worst option is for me to lead some fearless brothers, using the mountain's terrain to descend from the high ground and directly attack Modu!"

Liu Bang's excitement cooled down. He had tried to break out of the encirclement several times in the past few days, but had failed each time.

I thought Wei Ping might have some brilliant ideas, but it turns out he's just like that.

Wei Ping naturally noticed Liu Bang's emotional change. He said this because after transmigrating, the gourd enhanced all of his physical functions to the peak of human potential.

Think about the records in the history books: King Zhou dragging nine oxen backwards and changing the beams and pillars; Yu's bravery was unparalleled throughout the ages; he used his spear to lift a thousand-pound iron cart; he was the number one hero of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, with double hammers weighing eight hundred pounds, and so on.

There may be exaggeration involved, but Wei Ping could sense that he was capable of doing all of these things.

Baideng Mountain lacks everything except stones.

Wei Ping stood up and walked towards a huge rock with a diameter of more than one meter not far away.

What is he trying to do?!

An impossible thought popped into Liu Bang's mind.

This stone is much heavier than the bronze cauldron that his old friend always talks about.

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

A monster like Xiang Yu is a once-in-a-millennium phenomenon; how could there possibly be another monster like that in the world?

Beside the boulder, Wei Ping took off his armor, revealing his slightly muscular physique.

He looked like a scion of a prominent family who trained regularly, a far cry from Fan Kuai's burly and rough appearance.

Even Liu Bang doubted whether Wei Ping could lift Fan Kuai's 200-pound halberd.

Let alone the Fangtian Halberd, Guan Ying probably couldn't even lift his double-headed spear, which weighed several tens of kilograms.

There's no way around it; looking through history books, those born with superhuman strength were all burly and imposing, with waists three feet around and forearms thicker than most people's thighs. Only massive muscles can generate immense power.

Wei Ping's physique is not much different from Zhang Liang's.

Wei Ping didn't know what Liu Bang was thinking, but facts speak louder than words.

He held the boulder in his arms, veins bulging. The boulder began to sway under his weight.

"Get up!"

Wei Ping lifted the boulder off the ground with his bare hands until it was level with his chest.

After catching his breath, he lifted the massive rock, weighing several thousand pounds, high into the air with a single effort, raising and lowering it three times.

"hiss!"

Livestock!

Liu Bang strode forward and grasped Wei Ping's hand.

"I thought Xiang Yu was already a peerless warrior throughout history, but I never expected that you, General, are even more valiant than him."

"How can such a warrior be relegated to the rank of captain?! I have failed in my judgment of character!"

"Wei Ping, receive your investiture!"

"Now there is a brave warrior, whose strength exceeds a thousand pounds, and he is hereby granted the title of Supreme General and Marquis within the Pass."

Liu Bang, holding Wei Ping's hand, loudly announced this to the surrounding army.

"Your Majesty, I have not rendered any service whatsoever, how can I accept such a reward?"

"I will claim this reward after I capture the Xiongnu Chanyu Modu alive!"

Wei Ping's face flushed red, and he hurriedly pulled his hand away from Liu Bang's.

He simply couldn't stand the ancients' idea of ​​always traveling arm in arm with someone and sleeping in the same bed.

"General, you mustn't! The enemy outnumbers us; we cannot act rashly."

We've finally found such a formidable general; we can't afford to lose him.

"I wish to request the general to lead the Baideng army to break through the encirclement."

"Only by accepting the reward can the general rightfully command the army!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will certainly live up to Your Majesty's trust, lead the troops to break through the encirclement, and devote myself to the cause until my dying breath."

Bow down and die.

What a loyal subject!

It is no exaggeration to say that Wei Ping was now shining brightly in Liu Bang's eyes.

After the soldiers had a hearty meal, they all mounted their warhorses and stared intently at Wei Ping.

They all witnessed Wei Ping lifting the stone.

"The Xiongnu want to trap us here and kill us, but I don't want to die, so let these Xiongnu die!"

"Only one of us can survive—us or them!"

"kill!"

"kill!!!"

The morning sun shone on Wei Ping, gilding him with a golden glow.
