Fake Eunuch: Discovering the Emperor is a Woman!-Chapter 340 - 338: Duel in Three Days

At this moment, Sun Heng was stunned on the spot.

For a moment, he couldn’t figure out if what he had just heard was an illusion.

What did the young Emperor of You Country say? He actually agreed to his request? He actually wants to have a contest with him?

How is that possible? How could he dare to accept the challenge?

You should know that his warriors from the lake peoples are extremely fierce, and no one in the world can match them.

At this time, how could they dare to accept a challenge? Isn’t this seeking death?

Moreover, the soldiers of You Country have always been very weak.

It can be said without exaggeration that if the two armies were to face off, in one-on-one combat, it would definitely be a disastrous defeat!

Not to mention one-on-one, even at two against one, there wouldn’t be much chance of winning.

Moreover, this time he brought all cavalry, and they are all skilled hands.

Such ruthless characters can obviously handle three or four opponents with ease.

If these 1000 soldiers were placed on the battlefield, they would definitely be able to withstand 5000 soldiers of You Country.

This is still in the situation of direct clash between the two armies; if it came to a cavalry battle, it would probably be a one-sided slaughter.

Not only himself but presumably the Civil and Military Officials and the Emperor of You Country also know this, right?

But why would he dare to agree?

Agusi burst out laughing on the spot.

He couldn’t help but clap and cheer, his face full of eager anticipation.

Not only were these two shocked, but the Civil and Military Officials were also stunned for a moment.

Even the old General Mu was taken aback; he never expected that at this time, Your Majesty would actually agree to such a request.

You should know that once such a request is agreed to, it might end badly.

If You Country loses in this contest, what will happen to its dignity?

Will the young Emperor still have any prestige among his officials?

His credibility among the people would also be completely gone.

All in all, at this moment, one should step forward to resist the opponent and then drive them away instead of agreeing to a contest.

Among all the people present, aside from the young Emperor himself, only Lin Yi seemed at ease.

His face did not show any signs of worry; instead, he wore a mischievous smile.

This mischievous smile let many who knew him understand that he was up to no good.

Ying Yi was also very worried initially, but seeing Lin Yi’s smile, she secretly let go of her worries.

She knew this group of barbarians was probably in for some bad luck.

Although the opponents are all very capable warriors, facing Lin Yi, they likely won’t have any advantage.

After all, this guy has countless clever tricks, and his methods to torment people are endless.

If this mischief maker were her enemy, she would also be extremely troubled.

"Hahaha, good, very good, since that is the case, then we will await your grand arrival!

Haha, at that time we will sign a life-and-death agreement, a fight to the finish.

Whoever concedes defeat, is a loser!"

Agusi was extremely arrogant; after bursting into laughter, he spoke loudly to the young Emperor.

His arrogant demeanor was unmistakable.

Seeing the crowd below, the itch in their teeth was palpable.

Yet they remained rational, not daring to speak rashly again.

It’s known that Agusi is one of the fiercer warriors among these barbarians.

If it hadn’t been for his slower reaction compared to Lin Yi, he wouldn’t have just suffered a loss to Lin Yi.

Especially on the battlefield, this guy is practically a humanoid shield.

Wherever he goes, he slaughters, and likely no one can match him in combat.

While everyone was thinking this way, amidst Agusi’s arrogance, Sun Heng cautiously spoke:

"Emperor, may I ask what kind of contest you are referring to this time?

We have only brought 1,000 men. You wouldn’t consider sending 10,000 men to compete with us, would you?"

It’s better to ask this question first, since if that were the case, no matter how brave we are, we couldn’t withstand such overwhelming numbers.

Our 1,000 men against their 100,000—wouldn’t we just be slaughtered?

This is where he cunningly thought ahead for his own advantage.

Hearing this, the young Emperor exchanged a glance with Lin Yi, and after exchanging a knowing look, he chuckled:

"Hehe, why would I make such a move to overpower you with sheer force?

Since your people from a small state have incited this, it wouldn’t be proper for us to suppress you with our numerous troops.

How about this—to reflect the benevolence of our great You Country, we will only send 500 men to respond to your 1,000. What do you think?"

Upon these words, an uproar ensued below.

Whether it was Civil and Military Officials of You Country, or the three people Sun Heng and Agusi, all were startled.

Everyone stared at the young Emperor sitting on the Dragon Chair, almost thinking they had misheard, almost thinking he was mad.

Already at a disadvantage in terms of strength, yet now he wanted to pit his 500 troops against the barbarians’ 1,000. Wasn’t this a death wish?

At this moment, Agusi also naturally heard the disdain in his words.

Flushed with anger, he immediately wanted to retort and demand equal numbers.

Or to outright tell the other party they could send 2,000 troops to fight.

This frightened Sun Heng, who swiftly bowed to the young Emperor before Agusi could speak:

"Your Majesty’s words are golden. Since it has been said, let’s set it as such. We will prepare our troops and await your challenge at any time."

Having been interrupted, Agusi glared fiercely at Sun Heng, then huffed and stopped speaking.

Yet his heart remained utterly discontent and resentful.

How could he, a proud warrior of the Grassland, submit to the prestige of these mere Han people?

"Let it be settled then, three days from now, let us have a duel outside this city!

This time, it will determine both victory and defeat, as well as life and death. Do you dare?"

The words were spoken with dominance and valor, igniting the young Emperor’s blood.

Even the old General Mu was fired up.

Knowing that their 500 men fighting against the opponent’s 1,000 was tantamount to seeking death, the fierceness of those words was palpable!

It made him tremble with excitement uncontrollably.

However, these words sounded so harsh to Agusi’s ears.
