Sky Curtain: The Overlord Charges into Battle, Shocking Emperors of All Dynasties
Chapter 1 The Sky Curtain
"Ah, this is life!" Shen Chuan lay on his sofa, chugging a bottle of Coca-Cola.
Bad news: He is a recent graduate from a non-elite university, and he is a liberal arts major.
Good news: Shen Chuan has inherited a substantial fortune from his parents, so he can only work as a landlord and collect rent every month.
Even better news: Shen Chuan's parents have successfully "forgotten their son" and gone on a carefree trip abroad.
Shen Chuan was left alone in his house, enjoying this boundless "solitude".
Logically speaking, given this family's financial situation, most people would choose to use their savings to start a business, become a CEO, marry a beautiful and wealthy woman, ride the wave of the times, and reach the pinnacle of life.
But Shen Chuan has always been a person who takes things as they come and has a clear understanding of himself.
It's not that I'm afraid of rich kids squandering their money, it's that I'm afraid of them starting their own businesses.
He's not cut out for entrepreneurship. He just collects rent every month, lies at home watching short videos, reads novels when he gets tired of watching, and then watches short videos again when he gets tired of reading. What a wonderful life!
Thinking about his wonderful future, Shen Chuan picked up the can of cola and took another sip.
"This cola has to be delicious."
"Hiccup~~~~~~"
After drinking the sweet water, Shen Chuan let out a long, resonant burp, took out his phone, and skillfully started scrolling through short videos.
......
The myriad realms, the countless dynasties, and parallel universes.
A huge canopy suddenly appeared in the sky, and everyone could see it as soon as they looked up.
Someone inside the house also saw a miniature version of the sky. The sky was transparent, and the thought would gradually fade away without affecting their life in the slightest.
Western Han Dynasty, Chang'an
The appearance of the sky curtain brought some unease and turmoil to this newly established dynasty. Some people with ulterior motives even spread rumors that the sky curtain was a warning that King Xiang was returning to the human world, causing unrest in various places.
Fortunately, these were all small-scale disturbances that were suppressed and did not lead to major unrest.
The appearance of the canopy did not interrupt Liu Bang's drinking and revelry in Weiyang Palace. He drank cup after cup of wine, while a beautiful woman, her clothes disheveled, was in his arms.
"Since you were able to defeat Xiang Yu once, you can defeat him a second time. What are you afraid of?" He seemed to recall something, a hint of lingering fear appearing on his face.
He raised his wine cup, pointing it at the sky, and said, "I'd like to see what tricks you have up your sleeve, this sky."
In the first year of the Jingkang era of the Song Dynasty, in the capital city of Kaifeng.
The two Jin armies joined forces, completely surrounding the capital city of Kaifeng. The Jin army had already occupied most of the Song Dynasty's territory, and they were just waiting to capture Kaifeng so they could plunder and seize this prosperous Central Plains.
Suddenly, Xuanhua Gate opened wide, and thousands of people with faces painted in five colors, tattered clothes and flags, and disheveled hair and dirty faces, slowly walked out of the city gate carrying broken magic weapons. On the city tower, a Taoist priest dressed in Bagua robes and holding a peach wood sword sat upright, chanting incantations.
Seeing this, Wanyan Zonghan was overjoyed and was about to order his cavalry to charge.
But then, a patch of sky suddenly appeared in the previously clear sky, obscuring the sun. Seeing this, Wanyan Zonghan was bewildered yet astonished.
"This must be the sorcery performed by the demons within the city. Issue an order that no one is to make any rash moves."
Guo Jing, standing atop the city wall, was overjoyed to see the celestial canopy appear in the sky and immediately shouted:
"The celestial canopy appears, and the Six Ding and Six Jia divine generals descend to earth to protect the land of our Great Song Dynasty!"
Inside the palace, Emperors Huizong and Qinzong saw the celestial canopy appear in the sky and were overjoyed: Guo Shenxian's magic was indeed effective, and the Six Ding and Six Jia gods had truly descended to earth.
During the Hongwu reign of the Ming Dynasty, Yingtian
Zhu Yuanzhang said to Zhu Biao beside him:
"That bastard Liu Bowen, who claims to be a scholar of heaven and earth, has been studying this strange thing for two months now, and he still hasn't figured it out."
"If you ask me, this bastard just doesn't want to work for us, we should just kill him!"
Zhu Biao looked helpless. "Dad, this canopy isn't something an ordinary person can figure out."
"However, according to reports from the spies sent by the Embroidered Uniform Guard to the Northern Yuan, the Northern Yuan people seem to be unable to see this canopy."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's face lit up with joy. "So it seems the heavens are on our side, Great Ming."
In the 26th year of the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty, in Ningbo,
Xu Dong looked at the people on the street, who were all looking up at the sky, shouting about miracles and the existence of immortals. Some even knelt down and kowtowed, begging the immortals to show their power and send down divine punishment to destroy the Japanese pirates.
He was immediately baffled. "There's clearly nothing in the sky," Xu Dong scratched his head.
"Could it be that these people are all delirious? If so, this is the perfect opportunity to attack Ningbo."
Xu Dong had been involved in smuggling with Li Guangtou for a long time, colluding with Japanese pirates and Portuguese merchants, and serving as a guide for the Japanese pirates. He was one of the masterminds behind the Japanese pirate raid on Ningbo in the 26th year of the Jiajing reign.
......
On the sofa, Shen Chuan skillfully swiped his right thumb across the screen, pausing the video every now and then to check what comments the viewers had left.
Images from various dynasties slowly appeared on the sky, clearly the video content on Shen Chuan's phone.
Shen Chuan scrolled through the videos with his thumb, his gaze drawn to the video description.
"Xiang Yu's bravery is unparalleled throughout history #XiangYu #Overlord of Western Chu"
Xiang Yu? He was known as the king who surpassed Xiang and the general who surpassed Li, the pinnacle of human martial prowess.
With a do-or-die spirit, one can lift a cauldron with immense strength.
In the historical Battle of Pengcheng, Liu Bang's allied forces, numbering over 500,000, were ambushed by Xiang Yu's 30,000 cavalry, resulting in the deaths of over 200,000.
With 30,000 against 500,000, the advantage lies with me.
Liu Bang was puzzled. Even if there were 200,000 steamed buns, it would take 30,000 people three days and three nights to eat them. How could they have been wiped out in half a day?
During this war, Liu Bang fled in panic and even delivered a memorable scene—kicking his own children off three times.
It must be said that in this respect, Liu Bang was indeed a shrewd and ambitious man, and was well-suited to be an emperor.
The introduction from Shen Chuan's video slowly appeared on the screen, followed by the unfolding of the scene.
big man
Liu Bang and his ministers looked at each other, as if recalling the scene after the Battle of Gaixia, when Xiang Yu led 28 cavalrymen to charge into their encirclement of more than 5,000 men.
"Xiang Yu was indeed incredibly brave."
"It's more than just divine bravery; was that even human? Didn't you see the sign on the sky saying it was unparalleled throughout history?" This was clearly said by a general who had personally experienced Xiang Yu's charge into battle, his face filled with lingering fear.
Liu Bang laughed heartily, "So what if Xiang Yu was so brave? In the end, wasn't it you, sir, who won?"
"A person can lose many times, but winning the last time is enough," Liu Bang said, downing the wine in his cup with a smug look on his face.
"Xiang Yu was incredibly brave, unparalleled throughout history. Your victory over Xiang Yu proves that you are an even more outstanding figure, one that will never be seen again."
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty,
Liu Bei looked at the introduction displayed on the screen, then turned to look at Zhuge Liang.
"Strategist, is this sky truly a miracle of the immortals?"
Zhuge Liang shook his head. "Whether it's a miracle or not remains to be seen, but judging from the content..."
"It seems that the immortals held Xiang Yu, the King of Chu, in high esteem."
Beside him, Guan Yu stroked his long beard and said, "Xiang Yu was strong enough to lift a tripod, and historical records mention that he charged into a battle formation of five thousand with only twenty-eight riders, losing only two riders in the process."
At this point, a surge of fighting spirit appeared in Guan Yu's phoenix eyes.
"I really want to fight Xiang Yu for three hundred rounds and see how big the gap is between us."
Qin Dynasty, Xianyang
Ying Zheng gazed at Xiang Yu on the sky, the words "Overlord of Western Chu" appearing in his mind's eye, and fell into deep thought.
Xiang Yu, surnamed Xiang? I remember there was a Xiang clan before the fall of Chu, Xiang Yan, who caused quite a bit of trouble for our Great Qin before the destruction of Chu.
Could Xiang Yu be a descendant of the Xiang clan of Chu? Judging from the looks of it, he is on the battlefield.
My Great Qin Dynasty has unified the world and will last for ten thousand generations. It must be that Xiang Yu rebelled during the reign of my descendants.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng's eyes turned like knives as he looked at the former nobles of the six states in the court, his gaze filled with a hint of murderous intent.
These former nobles of the six states are like rats in the gutter, their hearts still yearning to rebel against our Great Qin.
Let's wait and see. Once the country is more stable, none of them will be able to escape.
