Chapter 226 If he can vote, why can't I?
Throwing a horsewhip into a river is something that only exists in bragging.
Just like how the Yellow Turban army of 100,000 claimed to be a million-strong army.
A group of generals laughed so hard they were doubled over.
It doesn't matter to Chen Shao give a long list of titles; what he fears most is that others won't believe it, but he himself will.
Chen Jing also laughed heartily, but his laughter was different from the others.
"See! I told you long ago, he really did have a way to cross the river, that's why he led us here! He's going to use a horsewhip to cross!"
In desperation, he stopped using the "I am alone" and started blurting out "I am the father."
"Your Highness, have you been made mad by the smell of those socks?"
"Such a wide river, such a rapid current, crossing it with a horsewhip?"
"Unless Chen Shaozhen is some kind of sorcerer."
The crowd mercilessly mocked the two brothers.
But as he laughed, the smile slowly faded.
It felt as if someone had grabbed my throat.
The horsewhips, after falling into the water, did not sink; instead, they spread out one after another on the river surface.
Layer upon layer, accumulating more and more.
In the blink of an eye, a narrow floating road was formed on the rushing river.
Chen Shao waved his hand:
"Cross the river!"
Then, taking the lead, he stepped on his whip and rode towards the river.
A chilling scene unfolded.
The horse's hooves trod on the whip as if walking on flat ground.
It's even more stable than a suspension bridge.
Occasionally a few tiny splashes of water would appear, but they had no impact whatsoever.
The Great Yan army followed behind him, all mounting their horses and quickly retreating towards the south bank.
Wang Yuanji's smile remained mechanically etched on his face.
But it was clear to everyone that there was no trace of a smile left.
"Damn it?"
Even seeing it with his own eyes, he still couldn't believe that this was the reality happening before his eyes.
The entire Hedong army stared at each other in disbelief.
After a long period of stunned silence, someone finally came to their senses.
"General, we can't just watch them cross the river like this, or we're finished!"
Wang Yuanji was startled. He rubbed his face with both hands to smooth out his stiff smile, and his face instantly turned ashen.
"What the hell are you all standing there for! Charge! Intercept Chen Shao!"
After shouting, he was the first to rush over.
The army seemed to awaken from a dream, their battle cries shaking the heavens and earth as they frantically charged towards the Great Yan army in front.
Wang Yuanji deliberately didn't get too close, just like a cat playing with a mouse.
But now, this distance has become an insurmountable chasm separating them by life and death.
As the Hedong army charged forward, Chen Shao's last batch of soldiers had already stepped onto the river, their whips clapping.
After the army passed, the whips, as if having completed their mission, scattered in the river, swirling and disappearing into the rolling waves.
It disappeared completely in no time.
Nothing remained on the river except for a few ripples.
The Hedong army could only watch helplessly as the other side slipped away and returned to the opposite side.
In a short time, the balance of power shifted.
Chen Shao is now in an invincible position and can withdraw at any time.
Meanwhile, the Hedong army had to rack their brains to figure out how to resist future hunger and how to cross the turbulent Ferry Crossing River.
After the entire Great Yan army had crossed the river, the soldiers looked back at the Dutian River, which was over tens of feet wide, and stood there in a daze for a long time.
What just happened was too unbelievable; those who had never witnessed Chen Shao's miraculous abilities felt like they were still dreaming.
It wasn't until someone slapped them that the burning pain made them realize they had flown out right under the noses of the Hedong Army.
This discovery caused a stir among the troops.
"Your Majesty is truly a divine being!"
"Long live the Holy Emperor!"
"Long live the Great Sage True Lord!"
Cheers rose and fell, their sound echoing across the Milky Way.
Chen Shao smiled faintly. This [Throwing Whip to Cut the River] technique is really useful.
Of course, he also noticed its shortcomings.
This entry is a bit too exaggerated.
Fortunately, the Ferry Crossing River is only a few dozen meters wide, which is why it can achieve such an effect.
If you encounter a truly treacherous river like the Yangtze, which can easily be hundreds of feet long and several miles wide, this entry might not be very useful.
Unless he really has an army of millions.
Chen Shao pressed his hands together in a gesture of nonchalance, his face showing complete indifference.
The army immediately fell silent.
"From now on, the army shall rest on the spot, set up a pot and cook meat soup, the more fragrant the better."
Then, he looked across the river, cupped his hands to his mouth, and shouted:
"Wang Yuanji, the situation is now settled. Why don't you surrender?"
"Are you really going to let those brothers who followed you die in vain?"
"Don't sacrifice so many lives just for your own selfish desires. They also have wives and children crying for food, and elderly parents waiting to be supported."
"This battle is entirely your fault; don't make others bear the blame for you!"
"You're dreaming! Such underhanded tactics are dishonorable! Our Hedong army will only die standing, not live on our knees!"
Wang Yuanji acted decisively, following suit, and shouted:
"Quickly, throw the whip and cross the river!"
After a moment's hesitation, the soldiers followed the example of the Great Yan army and threw their whips into the river.
Even a horsewhip can float for a moment.
But the first few dozen people who stepped onto the river were instantly swept away by the surging water.
The river has a strong undercurrent, and even the best swimmer cannot last long.
In the blink of an eye, the person who had sunk into the water had completely disappeared.
Wang Yuanji tried it himself and almost got swept away by the river, so he gave up.
He turned to look at the army and saw that they were clearly moved by Chen Shao's words and were also looking at him...
Wang Yuanji was speechless, not knowing what to say. Who could have imagined that the situation would change so quickly?
His gaze fell on Chen Jing.
Chen Jing remained in a daze, his mouth slightly open.
Wang Yuanji walked over and patted him on the shoulder.
The voice was unusually gentle.
"Your Highness, I am completely convinced."
"Your mouth is so accurate, it's like a self-fulfilling prophecy."
"From now on, on the battlefield, I will follow your lead."
He finished speaking and gave a bitter smile:
"In your opinion, Your Highness, how should this situation be resolved?"
Chen Jingyan, who had a jinxed mouth, had become his last straw.
Chen Jing was taken aback for a moment, then his voice suddenly rose.
"What did I say? I told you long ago! He can definitely cross the river! He must have another scheme!"
"None of you listened. Now look what's happened! He's crossed the river, and we're all stuck in a dead end!"
"I've said so much along the way, but not a single one of you listened!"
"I won't listen! I won't listen! I absolutely won't listen!"
Wang Yuanji resisted the urge to beat him up.
Head bowed, face gentle and kind.
"Your Highness, please tell us now."
