Chapter 202: Subduing Tuo Jin
Chapter 202 Subdued Tuo Jin
……
He is not very old, only in his sixties, but he not only cultivated to the Grandmaster realm early, but also fused the Western Necromancy and the Eastern Zombie Technique to form a brand-new method of refining troops. This so-called puppet corpse, Zhao Zhe has killed one or two hundred. Although it is called a corpse, it is made from a living person, and there is no smell of corpses at all. It's just that the skin and appearance will become a little hideous and distorted. In essence, they are not completely dead, but their minds are completely wiped out, and they are left with obedience to orders and some instinctive reactions. The pain in the body has completely disappeared, and the bones, muscles, and skin have become as hard as iron under the action of a large number of strange drugs.
A puppet corpse is not easy to refine, even the most ordinary ironclad corpse requires a large amount of medicinal materials, and the success rate is very low. However, after a few studies of Deyiyi, optimization can be carried out to improve the success rate.
Since he is willing to surrender, in order not to cause unpleasantness to each other. Zhao Zhe took a pill from the Demon Gate, and the legendary Three Corpses Brain Worm Pill gave him to take. This thing is extremely easy to use, and so far in addition to taking a special antidote once a year, it can only be saved by craniotomy. Craniotomy, in the case of very backward surgery in this era, is an extremely difficult technique. It can be seen that if Tuo Jin doesn't want to die, he can only be obedient. He was also a single, saying that as long as Zhao Zhe took revenge to the Holy See in mind, he promised to serve Zhao Zhe with all his heart, even if it was to take the Three Corpse Brain Chong Pill.
In other words, if you really deliberately go to the West to make trouble with the Holy See, it is an extremely brainless thing. However, Zhao Zhe is quite ambitious, and sooner or later he will have to confront Western forces, so he solemnly agreed to Tuo Jin's condition.
After receiving Tuo Jin, Zhao Zhe tried to get the Daoqin again. That guy's one-handed archery skills are really extraordinary. It's a pity that Daoqin is a native of Houjin, and secondly, he is still loyal to Boton. Instead, Tuo Jin suggested that if Daoqin refused to surrender, he could refine it into a puppet corpse. Generally speaking, after being refined into a puppet corpse, the overall quality of various qualities will be greatly improved. Tuo Jin has never been in a condition to use puppetry on a grandmaster-level master.
This proposal is really evil. However, Zhao Zhe agreed, but not at present, there is a lack of many materials and conditions. In this way, it can only be done after returning to Dazhao.
Then, the most important thing is to swallow the army of Zolle. It's not that I haven't thought about using Bolton to coerce Zhuole to surrender. But in that case, even if Dzole surrendered, I am afraid that Boton's life would have to be spared. Sometimes, credibility is important. If you accept the surrender of Zeller and kill Bolton, you will be much more tired and difficult to gain people's trust in doing things on your own in the future.
What's more, unifying the whole world is just a positive goal that Zhao Zhe set for himself. Again, it's an extremely fun game. Zhao Zhe didn't want to spoil the fun of conquering the world by force. Compared with today's Houjin Kingdom, Zhao Zhe has already taken a lot of advantages, and there is no need to play too many intrigues and tricks at all. In particular, the army he brought out this time is his most important army, the main battle army in the future. And any strong army does not rely on training alone. There must still be countless blood, lives, and experiences of war.
After a major battle with the Bolton army, although Zhao Zhe suffered a lot of casualties. However, every army today, in terms of morale, murder and experience, has risen to a higher level. After the bloody battle, among the more than 100,000 troops, there were many signs of breaking through their own cultivation. As for Zhao Zhena's remaining 690 tiger tooth soldiers, in addition to the ten grandmasters, after this tragic bloody battle, there were several of them who felt the realm of imminent promotion and touched the edge of the grandmaster. I believe that even if you don't rely on the Holy Domain, there will be more and more grandmasters in the Huya Army.
Now among Zhao Zhe's army, there are a total of more than 140,000 horses, including the Golden Wolf Army, and it is superior to Zhuole's 100,000 army in terms of quality and quantity. Still, an ambush was necessary. However, Zhuo Le is worthy of being a famous general of the Houjin Kingdom and a grandmaster. Just when his army was about to enter the ambush range for another ten miles, he suddenly stopped. Without warning, lead the army and turn around and leave, no, to be exact, run. Running straight to the Houjin capital, he must have judged that the Boton army had been wiped out, and wanted to return to the capital immediately, firstly, he could use the defensive advantages of the national capital to resist, and secondly, he wanted to immediately support the new emperor and call on the Houjin world to rise up and resist Dazhao. Only in this way can we have a chance to preserve the Houjin Kingdom, as long as we can survive this difficulty, the Houjin Kingdom may have a chance to rise again in a few decades or hundreds of years.
Zhao Zhe believed that Zhuo Le must still want to lower his profile, bow down to Da Zhao, pay a large amount of tribute, and try his best to curry favor with officials of all levels of Da Zhao. And the ruling class of Da Zhao already has an inexplicable sense of superiority, and has the concept of Confucius and Mencius, the state of etiquette. Generally speaking, when you are at war with some small countries, as long as the other party finally submits to the king, bows down to the vassal, considers itself a vassal country, and pays tribute every year, and comes to the court every year, you can be confused.
I have to admit that since ancient times, many dynasties have been like this, and this good bite is really a bit inexplicable. However, Zhao Zhe is different, and he is a little different from the emperors of all dynasties. What he believes in is that if you fight a snake, you will not die, but you will suffer from it. Some surrounding vassal countries, don't look at the surface they are all very deferential, and they consider themselves courtiers. But that's when they're low. Once it becomes strong one day, the first thing to deal with is its suzerain.
This kind of thing, especially in modern times, is more and more. In short, no matter what others think, Zhao Zhe will definitely not accept a subordinate country.
Without even striking a face, Deller immediately fled. It really caught Zhao Zhe off guard. However, when he reacted, he immediately waved his army in pursuit. Although Zhuo Le led 100,000 nomadic cavalry, he moved very fast. However, under Zhao Zhe's command, except for the hussars, who were authentic heavy cavalry troops, the vast majority were light cavalry.
At this time, the distance between the two sides is more than ten miles. It's not impossible to catch up. In particular, Zhao Zhe has a perverted cavalry like the Huya Army under his command. The war horses under the crotch, although the load is very heavy. However, when he runs, he is faster than the average Maxima. Drow didn't know that even if he ran faster, it wouldn't help.
Zhao Zheqin led nearly 700 tiger tooth soldiers, no longer hiding any traces, and pursued them like thunder. The distance of more than ten miles is getting closer and closer. Until the two sides were only three or four miles away, Zhuo Le released 10,000 cavalry to attack back, obviously trying to cushion the rear and buy time for the army in front to escape.
"Sprint over." Zhao Zhelang shouted, seven hundred tiger tooth soldiers. When the horses were galloping, a cone-shaped formation headed by Zhao Zhe and the various grandmasters was quickly formed. A total of eleven grandmasters, condensed into a conical needle tip, what else in this world can resist?
Hiss~ Like a piece of cloth, it was easily pierced by this cone-shaped array, and the opening became bigger and bigger, and in the end, Zhuole's 10,000 palace army was torn in two. Zhao Zhe and the seven hundred Huya Army, all the actions were just a slight stagnation. The 700 Huya Army of his own family has the strength to exterminate this army of 10,000 palaces. It's just that Zhao Zhexin was not here, so he left the army behind the palace to the armies that followed.
"Why are they so fast?" Instead of being at the front of the fleeing army, Dzole leaned against the rearguard. After not having a stick of incense, Zhao Zhe's seven hundred horses had already caught his eye. The domineering momentum and the incomparably fast speed made Zhuo Le's heart tingle. At such a time, where would Zhuo Le not understand that the other party would never allow their army to escape back to the national capital.
I had to give an order to let the army start to be ready for battle. The remaining 90,000 troops of Zulena were also forbidden. At the sound of the horn, they were still sprinting, and suddenly began to disperse. Looking down from above, it can be seen that the army of 90,000 has finally become nine small groups like scattered flowers. And within each 10,000-strong army, it was divided into countless small groups. Like a large firework that bursts, it rushes forward in three directions in an arc.
Zhuole's 100,000 troops are not good at gathering formations, but at riding and shooting. When playing mounted archery with the enemy, the larger the range of activity, the better, so as to provide sufficient tactical space for the mounted archery troops.
Whoosh~ A cavalry and archery team of hundreds of people circled an arched arc in front, and obliquely interspersed a hundred meters away from Zhao Zhe's Huya soldiers. A series of arrows rained down. They don't need to aim carefully, as long as they roughly use the force of the bow and the angle of the projectile to calculate the approximate landing point of ninety percent. In such a passing time, each of them shot two or three arrows. However, even so, they did not run out of range, but continued to circle diagonally behind Zhao Zhe's seven hundred people, controlling the movement of the war horse under their crotch with their legs.
Ding ding ding, a series of sounds, fell on the armor of the tiger tooth soldier. The throwing bow and arrow are also extremely penetrating, and can often make a sharp hole in the battle armor. One hundred horses, two hundred horses, like a goddess scattering flowers, dancing on the battlefield. This is the terrible surname of the cavalry and archery tactics of the Later Jin Kingdom. If the time drags on for a long time, even the Huya Army will probably be wiped out.
"Spread out, kill~" Zhao Zhe reined in his horse's head, stepped on the snow and hissed and stood upright, turned directly with his hooves, and after landing on the ground, he attacked wildly.
