Chapter 403: Thunder of Divine Punishment
The Guangming Army and the Liang Army fought from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, and even in the cold winter, the war between the two sides did not stop, but the large-scale war of more than 50,000 people was gone, and there were only wars of less than 50,000 people.
There is also a war in the cold winter, and the Bright Sect does not have many winter-proof clothes on its side, but fortunately, the Great Qin Empire thought of it and supported a large number of cold-proof clothes for the Bright Sect.
The Great Liang Empire and the Bright Sect fought and died in the territory of the Great Liang Empire, and countless soldiers on both sides were killed and wounded, which seriously affected the livelihood of Cangzhou and Shanzhou, and the people in the warring area could only flee this terrible area with their families and mouths.
The neighbors of the Great Liang Empire, the Tang Empire, the Shengwu Dynasty, and the Ji Luo Zhao Kingdoms, were all closely monitoring the situation within the Great Liang Empire.
In the past two hundred years, the Great Liang Empire has launched wars of aggression against the Tang Empire, the Shengwu Dynasty, and the Three Kingdoms of Jiluo Zhao, and the strength of the Tang Empire and the Shengwu Dynasty is relatively strong, so the Great Liang Empire has most of the time raised troops to invade the Three Kingdoms of Jiluo and Zhao.
In this case, the relationship between the Great Liang Empire and the surrounding countries is not good, all countries are sitting and watching the good show, watching the Great Liang Empire and the Bright Sect fight to the death, and all countries wish that the strength of the Great Liang Empire would be damaged, and then the countries would recover from the field for many years.
Watching the drama is watching the play, all countries hope that the strength of the Great Liang Empire will be weakened by the Bright Sect, but all countries will definitely not want the Bright Sect to replace the Great Liang Empire, after all, the Great Liang Empire is the main body of the family, and the imperial family is also a family, and the Bright Sect and the family are inherently hostile, the Great Liang Empire can be born, and the Bright Sect must be destroyed!
When necessary, all countries will also send troops to help the Great Liang Empire to exterminate the Illuminati together, but there can be no situation where the Great Liang Empire is wiped out by the Illuminati and then the Illuminati expands around.
However, it is not yet time for countries to send troops, and even if they do, there are many problems waiting to be solved.
Time entered the spring of the eleventh year of the Qin calendar, the cold winter had passed, and the Great Liang Empire and the Guangming Sect had gathered heavy troops in Cangzhou and the western region of Shanzhou, and everyone could see that a major war was about to break out.
The Great Liang Empire has gathered an army of 500,000 and a lot of recruits, but there are a large number of acquired martial artists in the 500,000 army, and there are more than 20 innate grandmasters sitting in it.
The Bright Sect has gathered an army of 300,000, the proportion of recruits is not as high as that of the Great Liang Empire, and there are 30,000 hoplites among them, and more than half of the innate grandmasters of the Bright Sect are also gathered here, plus the Bright Army is armed with faith, and the strength of the Bright Army is also very strong.
At the end of January, the Great War broke out.
At first, the Guangming Sect achieved a considerable advantage with 30,000 hoplites, and the number of casualties of the Liang army was almost double the number of casualties of the Guangming army, but then the Liang army concentrated on the innate grandmaster and the acquired warriors to carry out a surprise attack, and the high-end force of the Guangming army was less than that of the Liang army, and the number of casualties of the Liang army decreased for a while, but the number of casualties of the Liang army was already more than the number of casualties of the Guangming army.
After the start of the war, the reinforcements of the Great Liang Empire continued to go to the front line, and various materials were also continuously delivered to the front line, and the most important thing was that the major families of the Great Liang Empire were also consuming a certain amount of family heritage and piling up a number of innate masters.
The time for the development of the Bright Sect in this land is still too short, since the beginning of the war, the Bright Sect can provide far less aid to the front line than the Great Liang Empire, entering March, the strength of the Liang army on the battlefield is already twice that of the Bright Army, under the numerical advantage of the Liang army and the advantage of high-end force, the battle loss ratio of the two sides is rapidly increasing.
The change in the situation on the battlefield was seen by Yuan Chang, if it continued like this, the Bright Sect would lose this war.
Just when the high-level leaders of the Bright Sect were pondering their strategies against the enemy, the latest batch of support materials from the Great Qin Empire arrived, and among these support materials was the magic weapon that the Great Qin Empire gave to the Bright Sect - explosive packs.
When Yuan Chang personally felt the power of an explosive bag, Yuan Chang knew that there was a strategy against the enemy, and as for the question of how powerful the Great Qin Empire was, Yuan Chang no longer dared to think about it.
On the fifth day of the fourth month, the Guangming Army concentrated 250,000 troops and nearly 600,000 Liang troops to fight a decisive battle, and when the two armies faced each other, the warriors of the Guangming Army directly threw a hundred explosive packets called "Divine Punishment Thunder" by the Guangming Sect into the Liang Army array.
With a series of earth-shattering noises and large fireballs, the Liang army suffered countless casualties, and then the Liang army was in chaos, and the Guangming army took advantage of the situation to launch a fierce attack, and finally the 250,000 Guangming army defeated the 600,000 Liang army.
After this battle, the Guangming Sect completely occupied Cangzhou and Shanzhou, and then in front of it was Lianzhou, where Guangling City, the imperial capital of the Great Liang Empire, was located.
The 600,000 Liang army was actually defeated by the 200,000 Guangming army, which is an incredible thing in the eyes of many people, the Liang army occupies a huge numerical advantage and high-end military advantage, how can it be defeated so easily, or a complete defeat.
In fact, Yuan Chang and other high-ranking members of the Bright Sect had already made a decision, and after they saw the power of the "Divine Punishment Thunder", they formulated a decisive battle plan.
The first batch of "Divine Punishment Thunder" sent by the Great Qin Empire was not much, only two hundred, according to the calculation of one "Divine Punishment Thunder" killing and injuring dozens of people, two hundred "Divine Punishment Thunder" killed and injured 10,000 people is too much, and 10,000 people is not much for the Liang army.
However, Yuan Chang and other high-ranking members of the Bright Sect also saw that anyone who suffered the "Divine Punishment Thunder" for the first time would be shocked by the power of the "Divine Punishment Thunder", so on the battlefield, the Guangming Army directly threw out a hundred "Divine Punishment Thunder", killing and injuring a large number of Liang soldiers, and because Liang soldiers were attacked by the "Divine Punishment Thunder" for the first time, they were shocked by the terrifying power of the "Divine Punishment Thunder", and many soldiers were directly frightened and did not dare to move.
Because a hundred "Divine Punishment Thunders" exploded together, causing great chaos to the Liang army, the Bright Army was able to settle the battle in one battle.
The 600,000 Liang army was defeated, and the high-level of the Great Liang Empire was terrified, although the Guangming Army had not yet entered Lianzhou, but the territory of Lianzhou was already in chaos, and some well-informed people had dragged their families out of Lianzhou, and the voice of moving the capital in the imperial court also expanded rapidly, and the voice of uniting the Shengwu Dynasty and Ji Luo Zhao to encircle and suppress the Guangming Sect also came out again.
The strength of the Great Liang Empire in Lianzhou is indeed not much, mainly the 70,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Guangling City, and it is impossible for this force to resist the Guangming Army.
At the repeated requests of the ministers of the imperial court, Emperor Duan Hong agreed to move the capital and sent envoys to the three kingdoms of the Shengwu Dynasty, the Daluo Empire, and the Daji Empire, hoping to unite the three kingdoms to send troops to encircle and suppress the Illuminati.
This time the Great Liang Empire was defeated, and the families in the Great Liang Empire also felt bad, if this continued, the Great Liang Empire was not far from being destroyed, once the Great Liang Empire was destroyed by the Bright Sect, then their families based in the Great Liang Empire would also suffer heavy losses, and the Great Liang Empire could not be destroyed, and the families headed by Zhang, Zheng, Yu, Kong, and Yan were ready to do their best to help the imperial court deal with the Bright Sect.
