You were overjoyed, and then followed Krishna and escaped through the tunnels.
February 22: You followed Krishna to Panjala, only to learn that as news of your five deaths in the fire spread, Duryodhana had reclaimed your territory and unified the north.
The army was furious and wanted to lead you back to fight, but the eldest brother, Jianzhan, stopped him and told him...
"If our departure can help Duryodhana reclaim our country more quickly, then let us hand it over to him..."
Although you felt resentful, you still chose to listen to your elder brother.
March: You stayed in Panjala at Krishna's invitation. You heard that Durdja was already organizing his army and starting to train, and you prayed for Durdja.
4: Finally, the enemy decided to officially march on Elephant City! However, they were immediately met with resistance from a general! The horses neighed!
May: You learned that the two armies were fighting a great battle on the battlefield of Kuru. However, the army of Ma Si learned many strange battle formations from somewhere, and with the addition of some heavenly thunderbolts that would explode when thrown, the enemy army suffered a great defeat!
June: Ma Si led his army north and the enemy army was directly defeated! Kuru restored unity! All the hundred sons of Dhritarashtra became prisoners.
"What?!" Arjuna was stunned! Was this guy a complete waste?! So many people, all outstanding talents of the Kshatriyas, were defeated by an army that had been trained for less than half a year?
Are you a bunch of pigs?
"As expected, the enemy is still unreliable. It seems we still need to take action."
Meanwhile, Karna couldn't help but laugh as he watched as the unification of Kuru was accomplished so easily without him even lifting a finger.
"Indeed, the power of the people is great. Next, nationwide reforms will begin."
July: You begin to implement the new system throughout Juru. Because of the example set by the reforms in the south, the reforms in the north are progressing quite smoothly.
However, you hear news that the five Pandavas are alive in Pandora, and they once again invite the former allies of Kuru to gather together, preparing to form a stronger coalition to reclaim Kuru!
Seeing this, Karna understood that this would be the final battle. Although Kuru was the strongest dynasty in ancient India, the combined forces of other nations were not weak either. The victor would unify the entire ancient India, while the loser would lose everything.
But would Karna be afraid of that?
"Arjuna, I have waited for you for too long. This time I will personally take action. Our battle should end."
Chapter 473 Peace Negotiation or War Declaration?
August 1st: Karna decides to fight Arjuna, but according to custom, someone should be sent to deliver a challenge or negotiate peace at this time. However, Karna's side knows that the Pandavas are now filled with hatred for him, and none of them are willing to go. At this critical moment, Lin Ye steps forward.
"I'll go."
Seeing Lin Ye step forward, Karna immediately stopped him, saying, "No, Lin Ye! That place must be a den of dragons and tigers. If you go, you'll definitely be ambushed!"
Lin Ye killed Bishma and helped him unify Kuru, which made him an utterly vengeful person to the five Panditas.
However, Lin Ye shook his head and said, "Don't worry, don't you trust me? Besides, only I can guarantee that you'll return unharmed."
Lin Ye was also very confident in himself, because if even he failed, then there was no point in fighting this battle.
Hearing Lin Ye's words, Karna nodded helplessly. Meanwhile, Ma Si said impatiently, "Why worry about so much? If you ask me, we shouldn't go at all. We should just go straight for the enemy's headquarters. What if they actually agree to a peace treaty? Are we really going to just give up on fighting them?"
Looking at the hot-tempered Ma Si, Lin Ye said confidently, "Ma Si, have some faith in them. I will definitely try my best to negotiate peace, but this war will definitely break out."
If Arjuna and his companions had given up on reclaiming Kuru because of their fear of Karna, then he would not be Arjuna!
Arjuna was a divinely ordained hero, destined to be one from birth. From the moment he was born, he was loved by everyone: his mother adored him, his brothers were friendly to him, his teachers admired him, women fell in love with him, and even Krishna, an avatar of Vishnu and one of the Triads, became his friend.
He was destined to be a hero, so he would never back down.
On the contrary, Karna, abandoned by his mother at birth, whose adoptive parents concealed his true parentage, whose teachers scorned his origins, whose friends exploited his strength, and whose half-brothers were his sworn enemies, was the only woman he ever proposed to who refused to marry him because he was the son of a charioteer and instead married one of the five Pandavas. Yet, despite all this, he persisted in giving alms and helping others.
As a result, he gave away the golden armor and the sun earring after skinning and cutting off his ears. In the final battle, his wheel unfortunately fell into a pit, and Arjuna took the opportunity to shoot him dead. It was a huge tragedy.
August 2: Arjuna received Krishna's aid in Narayana, gaining 20,000 war elephants, 20,000 chariots, and an army of 200,000. He also received support from King Pygmalion, Macha, Sariyya, and others, bringing his total army to 800,000, a force known as the million-strong army, a formidable force!
Inside the palace, the five Pandavas and Krishna were discussing war matters when a scout suddenly reported that Lin Ye had come alone. Everyone was shocked, except for Krishna, who remained calm. He spoke to the five Pandavas before him...
“This Lin Ye is up to no good. You must remember that no matter what he says, you must not waver, and you must not act rashly, otherwise there will be no way to salvage the situation.”
Arjuna nodded in understanding.
Everyone sat upright in their seats, watching Lin Ye walk towards them step by step. Lin Ye had a smile on his face, but everyone felt a chill run down their spines, fearing that the man in front of them would suddenly attack and kill them at any moment.
Lin Ye calmly looked at everyone in front of him and said, "As is customary, I am here to negotiate peace. I hope that everyone can shake hands and make peace, lay down their weapons and submit to Karna, and then work together to build Kuru. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
"Impossible!" the leader, Jian Zhan, said firmly. "You and Karna attacked our country, which is a serious violation of the law. We will fight this injustice to the end!"
“That’s right.” The hot-tempered second brother, Bhujun, nodded. “Unless you immediately release everyone and kneel down with Karna to apologize to them, we will never forgive your sins!”
"That's right! Get Karna out of Elephant City! He doesn't deserve to be the king of Elephant City at all!"
"Lay down your weapons and surrender! Get out of the Kuru Dynasty!"
"Lay down your weapons and surrender! Get out of the Kuru Dynasty!"
A cacophony of shouts erupted from the crowd. Amidst this surging roar, Lin Ye stood calmly in place, listening to their cries, and then…
Divinity EX
"enough!"
hum!
Lin Ye uttered a cold voice, and everyone present immediately fell silent, as if they could feel the divine power emanating from Lin Ye, as if they would be crushed into pieces by this sea-like force if they uttered a single word!
At this moment, Lin Ye looked around at everyone, and finally, he fixed his gaze on Arjuna.
"You keep saying that Karna should return Kuru, so do you consider Kuru yours?"
"Kuruta was originally ours!"
Lin Ye: "Why should I?"
The army said, "Of course, because our father is Pandu, we are the rightful heirs to this country."
Bu Jun spoke matter-of-factly, and his words naturally won the approval of everyone present. However, Lin Ye's lips curled up slightly, thinking, "I've been waiting for you to say that."
Meanwhile, Krishna's expression changed.
Krishnamurti was an incarnation of Vishnu, the Triad God, so he could naturally foresee the future... which was possible, but with Lin Ye's appearance, he discovered that the future he saw was completely chaotic.
However, the future may be chaotic, but the past will not change. He naturally knows the origins of the five Pandavas and Karna perfectly well!
Lin Ye looked at the group and said directly, "It seems I should tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a shepherdess who, because of her sincerity, received a blessing from the gods. The gods gave her a talisman, which she could use to have a son with them. Later, this shepherdess married a king who was infertile, and then five children were born. Now, tell me, from a bloodline perspective, are these five children related to this king?"
Swish, brush, brush!
In an instant, all five princes' expressions changed. They knew, of course, that the five children Lin Ye was referring to were the five of them, and at this moment, they had no way to refute it.
Arjuna: "No, you're misrepresenting things. It's not like that. The affairs of the gods are different from those of humans. The way he and my mother gave birth to us wasn't what you think!"
Lin Ye: "What do you mean? So, you admit that you are not the sons of King Pandanu, but the sons of God?"
Huh? Is that what we meant?
Chapter 474 Karna's Choice, The Final Battle
Lin Ye attempted to refute the Pandavas' claim based on bloodline, putting them in an awkward position for a moment. However, the situation quickly changed.
Arjuna quickly realized what was happening and looked at Lin Ye in front of him, saying, "No, you are just sophistry. According to the law, we are the sons of King Pandita, just like Grandpa Pusa. King Pandita and Uncle Dhritarashtra are not the sons of King Pusa, but according to the law, King Pandita and Uncle Dhritarashtra still have the right to inherit the throne."
The Mahabharata period in ancient India was a time of transition from a matriarchal to a patriarchal society, so women held extremely high status.
A woman's illegitimate children also have inheritance rights.
Arjuna's words quickly gained everyone's approval, and they immediately came together.
"That's right! Don't talk nonsense here!"
"That's right! According to the true law, Kuru is Prince Yudhanatha! He is the eldest son!"
"Support Jianzhan Wang! He is the one everyone wants!"
For a moment, everyone was furious at Lin Ye. However, upon hearing Karna's words, Lin Ye smiled, while Krishna looked helpless.
Lin Ye said, "Well said! But I haven't finished my story yet. Let me finish."
After the shepherdess had five sons, they grew up and each became capable of standing on their own. However, one day, these five sons encountered a powerful man, and at that moment, the woman discovered that this man was her illegitimate son, born before she married the king! And she! Fearing the condemnation of those who accused her of being pregnant out of wedlock, had abandoned this poor child! This woman was named Gunti! And this man! Was named Karna!
What! ! !
Brush brush!
Instantly, the five Bandhus stood up from their seats! They glared at Lin Ye with eyes wide with rage!
Arjuna pointed at Lin Ye in front of him, his fingers trembling. "Impossible! You're lying! How could Karna be our brother!"
The hot-tempered Bu Jun could no longer contain himself. He picked up the hammer beside him and swung it at Lin Ye. However, Lin Ye pushed it away, and the hammer flew backward.
Lin Ye coldly looked at the five men in front of him and said, "Whether I'm lying or not, go ask your mother yourselves. Negotiation or war, we have no fear."
Lin Ye waved his hand, and a challenge letter landed directly in front of the five. Then, Lin Ye turned around and strode out of the palace.
No one stopped him, and no one could stop him.
At that moment, Arjuna had only one thought in his mind: Karna, was he really his brother?
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Arjuna immediately thought of his mother; he needed to know the answer!
August 3rd: You found the mother, Gunti, and questioned her about the truth of Lin Ye's words. Under your pressure, Gunti finally admitted that Karna was her child with the sun god Surya.
"What?!" Arjuna was truly terrified this time.
