Chapter 25: Fighting General (4000 chapters in one)
At this time, the Dongyi people had gathered most of their forces into the city, and the city walls were full of soldiers.
As if to boost morale, when the Eastern Expeditionary army approached the city, there was a creak and the city gate was opened.
The Dongyi army went out of the city and confronted the two armies of the Shang army.
Seeing this, a sneer appeared on Wen Zhong's face, and he waved his hand, and the war drum that was beating suddenly stopped.
There was silence in the heavens and the earth.
Immediately afterwards, a general Dongyi held a long-handled battle axe and rode a yellow horse and roared out and came to the front of the two armies.
"Merchant thief, who dares to fight me?"
This Dongyi general is burly, the momentum is as thick as a mountain, the battle axe in his hand is afraid that there are about a thousand catties, he holds the axe in one hand, and pulls the reins in the other hand, showing off his might in front of the battle.
On the demon bone chariot of the Great Array.
On both sides of Wen Zhong and Yin Shou stood Jiang Huan Chu's father and son, Feng Zong, and representatives of other princes. They saw this and looked at each other.
There are many generals who want to make meritorious contributions in front of the Taishi and the third prince and are suddenly ready to move, and they want to go out to face the battle.
"This is a fighter......"
When Feng Yuan saw this scene, he suddenly thought of the shortcomings in his plan. If Qingzhou wants to rise, in addition to the wealth of the country and the people's feet, and the sharpness of the armor, a large number of masters are also needed to join.
It takes too long to train a master on your own.
The power level of the Gods World is extremely high.
And the higher the level of the world, the less role the army and soldiers can play.
In this kind of world where personal power is attributed to itself, a force can only truly gain a firm foothold if it has enough strong people.
For example, in Xiqi, in order to strengthen his own strength, Xibo Hou Jichang not only continued to give birth to children, but also received a large number of righteous sons. These righteous sons are all great generals.
However, after Xiqi hoarded a large number of powerful people in the realm, he still did not dare to formally rebel, and he had to wait until Huang Feihu, the king of Wucheng, took refuge and the emperor Xin rebelled and left his relatives before he dared to establish himself as the king.
In Feng Yuan's plan, it was easier for Qingzhou to replace Donglu as Dongbohou.
But if Feng Yuan wants to take the position of Martial King Ji Fa, it will be a little difficult.
This has nothing to do with the saints who are high up in the sky, and before the catastrophe breaks out, the saints will not care about the rise or fall of a mere human prince.
It is purely the heritage of Qingzhou, which is not as deep as the accumulation of more than 100 years in Xiqi.
Not to mention anything else, just rely on Ji Chang's hundred sons, all of whom are generals who can go into battle. This is far less than Qingzhou.
"If the speed of self-cultivation is slow, then you can only recruit talents and heroes!"
Feng Yuan thought of the generals and talents that emerged during the Great God Tribulation.
Among these people, most of them have not yet come out, as long as he recruits in advance, he will definitely have gains.
"Father's ......"
At this time, in the face of the challenge of General Dongyi, a heroic young man behind Jiang Huan Chu couldn't bear it anymore, and took half a step forward, wanting to take the initiative to ask for help. Fight it out.
Jiang Huan Chu's brows moved slightly, shook his head, and rejected the other party.
This heroic young man is the future Dongbohou Jiang Wenhuan, who is brave and aggressive by nature, and he has already been furious when he encounters the provocation of the enemy.
But in front of his father, he could only hold back the anger in his heart.
Jiang Wenhuan couldn't go out, but Zhang Guifang, who was a pioneer general, couldn't get used to the arrogance of the other party, and directly urged the horse out.
"Dongyi barbarian, if you have the courage to report your name, you will not kill the nameless!"
"Hahaha, I am one of the twelve generals under the command of the Spirit King, and the giant axe will be Xiangyi, take your life!"
This self-proclaimed Dongyi general is a giant axe general Xiang Yi, and his momentum is soaring, and he is definitely a general at the pinnacle of the realm. After he saw Zhang Guifang come out of the battle, he roared, and the war horse rushed forward.
The giant axe was raised, and the people borrowed the horsepower, and the giant axe carried the sound of thunder and explosion, from top to bottom, as if the gods opened the mountain, and the surging brutal murderous aura shrouded the front tightly, not giving any room to dodge.
With such an enemy, Feng Yuan can only dodge if he encounters it, and he can't fight hard with the other party.
After all, Feng Yuan had absorbed the harvest of the previous world, and he had only just stepped into the realm by now.
This is also the reason why after the start of the Eastern Crusade, he deliberately hid his clumsiness, only made ideas around Yin Shou, and never easily went into battle to fight with others. The battlefield has no eyes, his strength is still weak, and if he can, he must be reluctant.
"This Yi great general, his strength is not weak!"
On the demon bone chariot, Yin Shou couldn't help but admire when he saw this scene.
And Feng Yuan and Yu Qing couldn't help but shake their heads.
After this giant axe general Xiang Yi reported his name, he was already doomed!
"This Dongyi general is still too honest!"
If Feng Yuan is him, he won't say much to the other party when he encounters the enemy, and he will do it when he rushes up.
As far as he knew, Zhang Guifang had broken through the limit of the Earth Realm and reached the Heavenly Realm. The awakened bloodline magic is the technique of "calling the name and falling off the horse".
When encountering this kind of magic that specifically targets the soul spirit god, as long as he does not break through the fairy realm and condense the three souls and seven spirits into one, even if he is a powerful Heavenly Realm god general, he will suffer a big loss when he encounters it.
In the future, when the gods were tribulated, Zhang Guifang relied on this magic to defeat Huang Feihu at his peak and capture Nangong Shi, the general of Xiqi, so that Jiang Ziya was at a loss.
However, this magic also has limitations, first of all, it can only be used on mortals who have three souls and seven spirits and have not become immortals, and secondly, it is necessary to know the name of the enemy.
A person's name contains his own qi and soul. Only by knowing the name can the magic be successfully activated.
In Feng Yuan's view, Zhang Guifang's magical powers are similar to the "soul shouting" in later folk rumors.
It's just that one is to temporarily leave the other person's soul by shouting the name, and the other is to call back the soul that has run away from the body by shouting the name.
In addition to Feng Yuan knowing Zhang Guifang's ability, Yu Qing, as Wen Zhong's apprentice, is also very familiar with Zhang Guifang.
As the two expected, when Dongyi general Xiang Yi rushed over, Zhang Guifang's body did not move, and he suddenly burst out: "When will Xiang Yi stay if he doesn't get off the horse?"
Airplanes!
As if drunk, this fierce realm general with a giant axe in his hand fell from his horse to the ground before he could make a move.
Zhang Guifang urged him to step forward, and the gun shot out like a dragon, and with a snort, the sharp gun pierced Xiang Yi's throat.
The giant axe general Xiang Yi, who was extremely strong and ranked as one of the twelve generals of the Hou Shen Ministry, did not even go through a round, and died in Huangquan like this.
If the God Tribulation has broken out, Xiang Yi may still be able to mix with a god position, but now, he can only return to the underworld.
"Who else is going to die?"
Zhang Guifang's voice was like thunder, his eyes were like electricity, his eyes were in all directions, and his momentum was even greater.
The Dongyi army was visibly commotioned with the naked eye, and the morale was reduced a lot, but the Dongyi warriors were also fearless of death, and there was a sword-wielding general who separated the crowd and rushed to the front of the battle to challenge Zhang Guifang.
Through the scene just now, the Dongyi people also knew that Zhang Guifang might have a strange skill, so without saying a word, they rushed up directly and killed him.
It's just that the Dongyi people obviously underestimated Zhang Guifang's own strength, in addition to his strange skills of calling for fame and falling off the horse, he also has extraordinary martial arts and heavenly realm cultivation.
Facing the challenge of the second Dongyi general, Zhang Guifang urged forward again, and the spear in his hand carried a swift and fierce energy, like a torrential rain, enveloping the opponent in an instant.
When he urged all his strength, the powerful evil qi soared into the sky, and a dark cloud even appeared in the sky.
When mortals reach the Earth Realm, they have already initially stepped into the transcendental, and they have become Heavenly Realm God Generals, with powerful qi all over their bodies, which can affect the celestial phenomena within a radius of several miles.
Heaven and earth are filled with countless spiritual power fields, and each powerful spiritual force field collides with each other, causing heaven and earth to change color.
If the spiritual force field is regarded as the surface of the water, the Heavenly Realm God will be a boulder smashed into the water.
As long as you exert your full strength and explode your qi, it is easy to affect the surrounding environment.
It can cause celestial phenomena to be out of phase, and it is also one of the signs of the Heavenly Realm Divine General.
Burst!
After Zhang Guifang rushed out, the spear split into a phantom and bounced the opponent's weapon away, but in just three rounds, the spear in his hand turned into a poisonous dragon and hit the opponent's throat.
The martial arts on the battle array are different from the singles on the rivers and lakes, one move and one style, concise and crisp, fast and ruthless, every move exists to kill the enemy, and there are very few false moves.
And, generally speaking, except for deliberately deceiving and luring the enemy, generals rarely deliberately retain their strength when they go to the battlefield.
As long as they shoot, they are giving it their all. There will be absolutely no carelessness.
Zhang Guifang is like this, even if the other party is only a general at the peak of the realm, his strength is better than the other party.
But as soon as he made a move, he still urged all his strength.
As a result, the opponent was killed after not holding out for three rounds.
"Okay!
On the chariot, Yin Shou's face was even more joyful, and he praised Zhang Guifang's performance. The more generals there are in the Great Shang Dynasty, the more stable his position as the future human emperor will be.
Therefore, he was very happy to see that among the Eastern Expeditionary Army, powerful generals continued to appear.
After Zhang Guifang's successive victories, the leader of the Houshen Department turned pale, and no longer sent the realm general to send him to death, but dispatched one of the strongest totem warriors in Dongyi.
The strongest totem warrior in the Hou God Department, his strength has reached the heavenly realm.
However, because the cultivation method of the totem warrior is too flawed, it is still normal in the realm, once it breaks through the heavenly realm, the consciousness and soul of the warrior will gradually be assimilated by the totem gods, and finally annihilate their own consciousness.
It can be said that the cultivation method of the totem warrior is a dead end.
This kind of Heavenly Realm totem warrior who has no consciousness of his own must be controlled by a witch priest with strong spiritual power in order to exert his strength.
A totem warrior is essentially like a battle golem.
When encountering such an opponent, Zhang Guifang's trick of calling for fame and falling off the horse did not work.
After dozens of rounds of fighting with the Heavenly Realm Totem Warrior, Zhang Guifang was unable to win in a short period of time.
On the demon bone chariot, Wen Zhong saw this scene, so he sent someone to Mingjin and let Zhang Guifang temporarily return to the camp.
At this time, the two detachments that were separated also sent news.
Deng Jiugong of the South Road made smooth progress all the way, successively broke through 18 Dongyi tribes, strangled the soldiers and horses of all the troops in the south of Dongyi, captured more than 100,000 people, and won a complete victory.
As for Lu Xiong on the North Road, his method of leading troops was different from Deng Jiugong's, he was a little cautious, and his marching speed was relatively slow.
As a result, after defeating the eight Dongyi soldiers and horses, the other Dongyi troops were on guard, united with each other, gathered hundreds of thousands of horses, and trapped him in Zishui.
After getting the news, Wen Zhong had to summon the high-level of the expedition to the meeting.
This time, relying on the relationship between Yin Shou, Feng Yuan was also able to attend.
"Now that Lu Xiong is trapped in Zishui, he must send troops to rescue him, I wonder which general is willing to go?"
Wen Zhong's brows moved slightly, his voice was faint, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and he deliberately paused for a moment on Jiang Huan Chu's body.
Obviously, Wen Zhong wanted Dongbohou Jiang Huanchu to personally go out and lead the troops and horses to support Lu Xiong.
Jiang Huan Chu's heart wandered, his face was gloomy, and he didn't come out for the first time.
There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Dongyi, among which there must be strong people in the territory. If Donglu sends troops, the soldiers under his command will fight with Dongyi, and the loss will not be less.
In this Eastern Crusade, Donglu came just to help Yin Shou strengthen his momentum, and by the way, he expressed his support.
It's okay to let them follow Chaoge's main force to fight a smooth battle, let Donglu show his strength to fight a bloody battle with the enemy, Jiang Huanchu is not ready for this.
Wen Zhong's status in the Great Shang Dynasty is about the same as Jiang Huan Chu.
One is the imperial master, the other is the chief of the princes of the Quartet, Jiang Huan Chu is unwilling to send troops, and Wen Zhong has no way to force it.
Seeing this scene, Feng Yuan glanced at his father, who was standing on the right side of Jiang Huan Chu. Motioned for his father to take over the task.
Others see danger, but Feng Yuan sees opportunity!
An opportunity to strengthen Qingzhou's strength.
Hundreds of thousands of Dongyi soldiers and horses, if you can find a way to capture the other party, Qingzhou can have hundreds of thousands of extra labor, let these young and strong Tuntian train soldiers, it won't be long before the number of elite soldiers in Qingzhou can be doubled.
As for whether these hundreds of thousands of Dongyi people can return to their hearts, Feng Yuan has his own considerations.
Noticing Feng Yuan's eyes, Feng Zong hesitated slightly.
After participating in the Eastern Crusade, he did not rashly show off and has always behaved tepidly.
Qingzhou and Dongyi are next to each other, and Fengzong knows a lot about the strength of Dongyi's various departments, and only the Great Shang Dynasty can overwhelm each other by gathering a large army and marching eastward.
If you only rely on the strength of Donglu or Qingzhou, you can only defend, and you can't pose a threat to the Houshen Department.
Like Jiang Huan Chu's thoughts, when it is not necessary, Feng Sect also does not want to consume his own strength.
However, seeing his son's continuous signaling, Feng Zong's thoughts turned in his heart, sighed slightly, and took a step forward.
"Taishi, I am willing to lead troops to support General Lu!"
Wen Zhong's eyes moved, but he didn't expect that Hou Fengzong of Qingzhou would take the initiative to ask for help.
The princes and generals of the towns standing on the left and right sides looked sideways one after another, with an unconcealable surprise on their faces.
Jiang Huan Chu glanced at Yin Shou intentionally or unintentionally.
"If you want to behave in front of the third prince, you don't have to lose your own elite soldiers, right? The third prince wants to succeed to the throne, and there is still a period of time, and now the strength is greatly reduced, and it will affect the strength of his own territory......"
"However, if Qingzhou's strength is greatly damaged, this is an opportunity for my Donglu to expand!"
Jiang Huan Chu's thoughts turned in his heart, but his face did not show anything.
At this time, Wen Zhong was also groaning in his heart.
The Marquis of Qingzhou has 50,000 soldiers and horses, and he is also a Heavenly Realm God General, so with Fengzong personally leading the troops, it should not be a problem to open a gap for Lu Xiong's 100,000 troops to withdraw troops.
"Okay, please ask Qingzhou Hou to lead troops to support!"
His brows furrowed, and he immediately issued an order.
When the deliberations were over, the Feng Sect immediately sent someone to call his son.
"Da Lang, what happened just now? How did you let your father take the initiative to send troops to save Lu Xiong?"
If it weren't for Feng Yuan's excellent performance these days, he gave Feng Zong a good impression. I would never have come forward just now.
And now, Feng Yuan needs to give him a reason!
Feng Yuan didn't answer immediately, but first sensed the surroundings and found that there was no one else. Only then did he ask: "Father, have you ever thought that one day, you can go one step further and become the chief of the princes of the two hundred roads in the east?"
