Ten thousand horses galloped, raising the long yellow sand. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Looking at his high-spirited subordinates, General Batu was in high spirits.
After reaching an agreement with Hou Haixing Nianshi to annex the Dongtu Kingdom, he built a pontoon bridge in Shajiang overnight, and raided Tiejiang City, an important military town of the Dongtu Kingdom in Shajiang, and fought a battle.
There is no other natural danger between the Northern Han Dynasty and the Dongtu country, there is only a Shajiang River that is not very big, because the Northern Han country has no national teacher, it has always been at a disadvantage, although the soldiers are strong and strong, they dare not look south for hundreds of years, and now they finally have a chance, the national teacher of the Eastern Dynasty caused a catastrophe and took a dead end, it was the rise of the Northern Han Dynasty, the Dongtu army that had always been comfortable was not vulnerable at all, and the Tiejiang defenders, who were ten times larger than the vanguard army of the Northern Han Dynasty, were disarmed without effective resistance.
There is a smooth road ahead, and you can let the Northern Han horse army gallop.
Nanzhao and Xiliang are separated by a vast jungle and a snow-capped mountain, which is far inferior to the speed of the Northern Han Horse Army, and half of the Dongtu Kingdom will be returned to the Northern Han.
Galloping all the way, it took half a day to advance three hundred miles, and in front of it was the prosperous and rich North County City, the third largest city in the eastern map.
Countless panicked people of Beijun crowded at the city gate, desperately trying to squeeze into the city before the arrival of the wolf-like Northern Han army, and the thick gate of Beijun could not be closed at all.
Batu laughed, believing that his 3,000 vanguard army alone would be enough to take down this northern county with a population of 100,000 defenders, and he would not need to use the 200,000 Northern Han army that followed behind.
"Kill into the city, whoever grabs the treasures and women of Dongtu first will belong to whoever owns them, take the northern county city, and each of you will be named a warrior, kill!"
Batu pointed at the horsewhip in his palm and shouted loudly.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The blood of the soldiers has been provoked, and nothing can stop the footsteps of this iron horseman.
The soldiers in the front row beat their horses and whips, the tall one-horned war horse of the Northern Han Dynasty has galloped forward with long legs, and the horse army behind is also ready to follow up, and the pace of the charge has begun, as if it is an arrow from the string.
At this moment, a faint figure appeared not far in front of the three thousand strong troops, hazy in the dust and sand, and it was not clear to see.
One person, facing thousands of troops.
"This person is crazy, do you want to stop the footsteps of the three thousand iron horsemen with high morale alone?"
Not only the Northern Han Army, but even the Dongtu defenders at the head of the North County City thought so.
In a short moment, the Northern Han horse army in the front row had rushed to the front of the man, and was about to run over the man, but the heads of the whole row of one-horned war horses suddenly fell at the same time, and the horse body fell to the ground.
The defenders of Dongtu, who were already desperate at the head of Beijun City, suddenly woke up after being stunned, and shouted: "It's the national teacher, the national teacher has saved us!"
The people who were crowded under the city and at the city gate also turned around, and the panicked mood was swept away, and they raised their arms together and joined the chanting queue, and soon, the entire northern county city shook.
At this time, the figure in the dust and sand had disappeared.
The soldiers in the front row of the Northern Han Army have staggered to their feet, only the war horses died, they were only wounded and not killed, they looked at their war horses, their eyes showed a look of fear, this kind of power to cut off the heads of the entire row of war horses at the same time is not something they can resist, it is not human, the national division of Dongtu is still there, this war has been doomed.
"How is it possible? Then Mu Yi's strength of the Haixing Mu family is already on par with Nian Shi, how can Dongtu's new national teacher be his opponent!" Batu couldn't believe it.
At this moment, a ravine suddenly appeared in the open space in front of Batu's war horse for no reason, forming several big characters: "Mu Yi is dead, retreat and don't kill." ”
Batu's face suddenly appeared firm, and he said coldly: "Who is pretending to be a god here? How could a dignified national teacher do such a sneaky thing, this must be a magician who confuses people's ears and eyes and tries to block the footsteps of the army, my king's military order has been issued, how can I take it back!"
He shouted loudly: "Erlangmen listen to the order, rush me..."
As soon as he said the word, his body and the tall one-horned war horse under him parted from it and fell to both sides, blood pouring and spraying.
The surrounding Northern Han soldiers looked around in a hurry, looking up at the sky, but there was no trace.
Then they looked at the supreme commander of the vanguard at this time, the overseer Abundance.
Duo Feng was a sturdy old man with a black and red face, he looked at a few corpses on the ground, and then looked at a few big characters on the ground not far away, looked up at the sky, and finally sighed: "Withdraw!"
The three thousand iron horsemen silently retreated north.
There was jubilation inside and outside the city of North County.
The frustration of the Northern Han spread among the vanguard army, and their sharpness had been lost, and the wealth and women at their fingertips slipped away so easily.
But they did not disagree, war is a contest of strength, and Nian Shi is an inhuman force, not something they can contend with.
At this moment, they were looking forward to it almost at the same time: "When will my Northern Han also get a national teacher?"
Duofeng led the vanguard army to retreat north to join up with the 200,000 Chinese army and retreat to Tiejiang City, but did not retreat to the north of the Shajiang River.
On the second day, the king of the Northern Han Dynasty received an urgent message from the birds: the two scholars of the Dongtu royal city fought a decisive battle, the teacher of the Dongtu country was saved, and the other scholar was killed.
Almost at the same time, another urgent news came: Xiliang broke through the defense line of Dongtu Snow Mountain, the coach Li Ji died inexplicably, the deputy marshal Zhan Yu insisted on advancing, the head flew up for no reason, the Xiliang army did not retreat, the king of Xiliang Zhen Yi died violently, the prince Zhen Mu still insisted on holding the territory that was obtained, and his body suddenly turned into a pile of meat and died tragically in front of his father's corpse, Zhen Yi's second son Zhen Rong immediately announced the withdrawal of Xiliang, and the snow mountain was completely owned by Dongtu State, there was no territorial dispute, and Zhen Rong was proclaimed as the new king of Xiliang.
The king of the Northern Han Dynasty suddenly ordered the Northern Han army to retreat thousands of miles north and leave the Shajiang River far away.
As soon as the decree was issued, Tuqi received another urgent message: Nan Zhaoguo did not invade Dongtu Kingdom, but stationed heavy troops on the border, waited for news, and quickly withdrew his troops at midnight.
"This timid old fox!" he scolded suddenly, and then sighed: "Alas, I will also learn from him in the future, and I can't act rashly!"
He regretted misestimating the strength of Mu Yi and Dongtu Guoshi, and sent troops in vain before he got the result, but now he has to find a way to bridge the relationship with Dongtu Guo, and he doesn't dare to pay him as much as the new king of Dongtu wants him to compensate, even if it is to cut the land, he can only accept it.
"Passed the decree and escorted Concubine Jing back to Dongtu Province to mourn in person and prepare a heavy gift. ”
…
Wuchang doesn't want to kill people, but only the means of blood can deter people's hearts.
He killed one person, intimidated the Northern Han army, and killed four people to force Xiliang to retreat, and at the same time frightened the Northern Han and Nanzhao back.
"Killing is not an end, it is only a means, and when necessary, only killing. ”
Although Wuchang is very helpless, he also knows that this is an unchangeable fact, and it has been the case since ancient times.
Only death can completely dissolve the desires of the human heart!
No matter how large the number of troops is, they are mortals, and they are so powerless in the face of higher-level forces, Wu Chang just selectively killed a few people, and then repelled the armies of the Three Kingdoms, without consuming too much or much time.
He didn't think about these things anymore, and he didn't have to worry about the change of power in the Dongtu Kingdom, he was thinking about one thing now: whether to go to Hou Haixing and kill Mu Chaozong.
Mu Chaozong's strength is the bane, even if he has no intention of taking revenge, as long as he exists, someone will come to find trouble in the Qianyuan Xingdong Tuguo for him.
Killing Mu Chaozong is a must.
But Mu Chaozong is a Nian Master, and the strength of Nian Shi is unpredictable, and there are three major Nian Masters on Houhaixing, which is their base camp, and there are countless believers who provide them with credibility, not to mention whether they can kill Mu Chaozong or not, whether they can return safely is a question.
After Wu Chang went to the sea star, he could only walk through the void with his soul, and he had already discovered that the strength of the soul of the body was very different from that of the body, it was also a martial art of attachment, and it was also a void flying knife, and the power emitted by the soul of the body was far inferior to the body.
The degree of condensation of his soul is not enough, and it is far from the level of not relying on the body.
Wu Chang was not arrogant enough to despise his opponent, he thought about it, the danger of going to Hou Haixing was unpredictable, it was better to participate in the Nian Shi Conference first, and he would write a long book for a while, assess the strength of the only Nian Master of the former Yuan Star, and then make a judgment.
Liu Feng couldn't find it, so he had to go alone.
Before the trip to the Three Kingdoms, according to Mu Yi's memory, he found the sunken Wang Boat in the sea area where the accident occurred, but there was no Liu Feng on it, nor did the other four escort clippers, and he searched the surrounding hundreds of miles of sea, and there was no trace of Liu Feng.
Maybe Liu Feng has been eaten by the strange fish in the sea and there are no bones left?
Wu Chang believed his hunch, Liu Feng was not dead, this person's life was very hard, and he would not die so easily, or he did not follow Wang Zhou, or he had his own way to escape.
Jing Qianqian has been killed, as the only personal servant of the national teacher, it is Mu Yi's primary goal, killing Jing Qianqian, Mu Yi sank Wang Zhou's queue.
For this girl who used to get along closely, I feel sorry for Wu Chang, but I am helpless, life is always full of countless helplessness.
He doesn't have the strength to keep his relatives and friends out of harm's way.
Wu Chang is more eager to improve his strength, and in this cruel world, strength is the only reliable guarantee.
Now that there are less than two months before the Nian Shi Conference, he wants to calm down and practice behind closed doors, but trouble comes to his door.
When the crown prince of Dongtu Kingdom ascended the throne as the new king, the first thing he did was to send a new teacher to Wuchang.
I actually cling.
Jing Qianqian's sister is one year younger than Jing Qianqian.
Regardless of appearance, shape, and temperament, it is almost the same as that of Jing Qianqian, which is simply carved out of a mold, so that Wuchang almost thought that it was a thousand thousand resurrections.
After thinking about it for a while, Wu Chang understood that Yiyi must have received exactly the same training as Jing Qianqian, and he is a fellow mother, so he will be like this.
If it was someone else, Wu Chang might have flatly refused, but he couldn't bear to refuse, so he let her stay in the National Teacher Tower, but only to do the work of communicating and delivering meals.
According to the tradition of Qianyuanxing, it is normal for sisters and colleagues to be husbands, and it is normal for them to replace their sisters with sisters.
A supple and supple, ready-to-eat beauty, but can only watch dryly, Wu Chang really can't settle down to practice in the National Teacher Tower, a few days later, he left the National Teacher Tower, flew to Qianyuan Island, and prepared to meet the other scholars who arrived in advance for a while.
