Chapter 846: Finally Crowned! (Make-up noon)

"The Qin army withdraws its troops, what the hell is going on?"

After resting for a day, Chutian annexed half of Liaoxi County in a big way, preparing to chase Liaodong.

At this time, the news of King Qin's withdrawal suddenly came from Luoyang.

The old Qin was bound to win Luoyang City, but he suddenly secretly withdrew his troops, which was a little incomprehensible.

After the accident in Mingguan, Chu Tian's other strong enemy, Lao Qin, also had an accident.

According to the report of the Inhuman spies deployed by Chu Tian in Guanzhong, Lao Qin seemed to be ill.

Lao Qin is older, and his health is not as good as Chu Tian and the others, so it is normal for him to get sick.

Do you want to be like Sima Yi, Tokugawa Ieyasu and others, and survive one powerful opponent after another?

At this time, Chu Tian realized that being young was also a good thing.

Some opponents are more difficult to deal with, and it is difficult to fight, so they will survive the opponent.

This time it was a real time to operate, two powerful opponents suddenly overturned, and the pressure on Chu Tian was much less.

"The lord, the loyal and filial army, captured the red-clothed cannon of the Ming army."

After the sky turned white, the crippled Zhongxiao Army and Heli Army returned to the camp and brought back a row of large carriages, which dragged back with red-coated cannons.

The spoils of war obtained by Mingguan from the Battle of Songjin, the red-coated cannons of the Qing army, have now become the trophies of Chutian.

Because Chu Tian was concentrating on dealing with the cavalry in Liaodong, he had already neglected the red-coated cannons a little.

The red-coated cannons brought back by Mingguan caused a lot of losses to the Xia army, but it did not have a decisive effect, and it was the cavalry corps in Liaodong that really caused losses to the Xia army.

Even so, the destructive power of the redcoat cannon on morale and formation should not be underestimated.

Chu Tian and a group of generals who survived the catastrophe came curiously to observe the red-coated cannons brought back by the loyal and filial piety army.

Aside from the player, ordinary NPC generals don't know much about the Red Cannon.

Even Chu Tian had never seen this kind of antique-level bronze cannon very much.

In the era of cold weapons, the red-coated cannon has been a cross-era weapon, whether it is a siege or a field battle, the performance is excellent.

"The tiger and leopard cavalry was almost wiped out, and the last general was ashamed, so he asked to resign and return to his hometown."

Cao Cao resigned with an injury, because Xiahoudun was disabled, and Cao Chun and Cao Xiu were uncertain about their life and death, and they were discouraged.

This battle really shook the foundation of the tiger and leopard cavalry, there was not one in ten, and a large number of veterans and veterans were killed, and even if they were rebuilt in the future, they were a group of new soldiers.

Cao Cao had never fought such a tragic battle.

There are only a few hundred people left in the tiger and leopard cavalry, and the generals of the Cao clan and the Xiahou clan, except for Cao Ang, there is no one who is not injured.

"Lao Ji is in the bush, and his ambitions are thousands of miles. The martyrs are in their twilight years, and their hearts are strong. Meng De is in the prime of life, so how can he say goodbye to his hometown. Liaoxi, Liaodong, and Guanzhong are just a corner of the world, and there is a wider land, and it is advisable to whip it. ”

Chu Tian appeased Cao Cao, and at the same time, he was also appeasing other generals.

The Liaodong Army is bloody, and it is not necessary to fight to die, and the generals of the Xia Army have been baptized by this battle, and most of the generals have been seriously injured and realized the cruelty of the battlefield.

If they don't appease the morale of the army at the right time, then they may not dare to continue to fight hard in the next more tragic battle.

"Lao Ji is in the woods, aiming for a thousand miles ......"

Cao Cao seemed to feel something, and did not mention the matter of returning to his hometown for the time being.

"All those who have made meritorious contributions this time will be registered, and those who should be crowned marquis will be all marquis."

Chu Tian knew it was time to start sealing the marquis in a big way.

It was only a matter of time to pacify the north, as long as there were no accidents like Mingguan and Lao Qin halfway, he had enough strength to sweep the entire north.

And at this time, it is necessary to seal the marquis to win the hearts of the people.

A marquis does not necessarily have power, but he certainly has status.

People die for money, birds die for food, and for most generals, the feudal marquis has enough attraction for them to be born and die, like a moth to a fire.

In order to capture the red-clothed cannon position, the arm and thigh of the monk Wanyan Chen were hit by the shotgun of the red-clothed cannon, although he was lucky not to die, but he was also disabled, and the upper limit of force was permanently reduced from 96 points to 90 points.

The current Wanyan Chen monk has a commander value of 89 and a force value of 90, and he is no longer an emperor-level general, but has fallen into the ranks of king-level generals.

Chutian forces, Wanyan Chen Monk is not the first person to decline in force, Zang Ba, Sun Guan, and Xiahoudun have all suffered permanent trauma and their force has declined.

However, the characteristics of Monk Wanyan Chen are still at the level of emperor-level military generals, and they are naturally more practical than Hua Xiong and others.

For the fact that Monk Wanyan Chen was disabled and his force had declined, Chu Tian felt a little guilty.

Monk Wanyan Chen went to attack the artillery positions guarded by Hong Chengchou and Kong Youde according to his orders, and was wounded.

Chu Tian's original intention was just to let Monk Wanyan Chen try to plunder the red-clothed cannon, and if the opponent has many defenders, then retreat.

Monk Wanyan Chen was too stupid and loyal, so he simply defeated Hong Chengchou, killed Kong Youde, and took the artillery position at the cost of the loyal and filial piety army and the Heli army.

The Loyal and Filial Piety Army and the Heli Army did not think that there was anything wrong with the commander's order, but faithfully fulfilled the commander's order.

Regarding the desperate loyalty of Monk Wanyan Chen, the loyal and filial piety army, and the Heli army, Chu Tian was also quite moved when he was unbelievable.

"It's good to be alive, this time it's a close to the Hou."

Chu Tian patted Monk Yan Chen's shoulder.

If it weren't for the special props at the beginning, Chu Tian would not have been able to recruit Monk Yan Chen at all, this person is the same as Gao Shun.

Monk Wanyan Chen hugged his fists and said: "The last general is willing to go to the soup for the lord, and he will not give up!" ”

Chu Tian nodded silently.

Monk Wanyan Chen is really not polite, he can sacrifice himself for the sake of the lord.

Historically, after Monk Wanyan Chen led the loyal and filial army, and was finally captured by the Mongols, the Mongolian commander wanted to reuse him, but Monk Wanyan Chen still chose to kill himself.

"Marquis ......"

After being seriously injured, Li Guang, who was wrapped into half a zongzi, was lying on a stretcher, and when he saw that Chu Tian promised to seal Monk Yan Chen as the Marquis of Guannei, he couldn't help but chatter.

Monk Wanyan Chen did not pursue the marquis much, but was quickly made a marquis, and Li Guang waited for ten years.

"Ahem, General Li Guang beheaded Duan Piyan, Duan Wenyang and other generals of the Xianbei tribe of the Duan clan, and he shocked Liaoxi, so he should also be named the Marquis of Guannei."

Chu Tian caught a glimpse of the mummy-like Li Guang, who worked extremely hard in this battle, and fought bravely in order to make up for the losses caused by the siege of the Duan Xianbei cavalry before.

Li Guang assisted Zhou Yafu's army to break the Duan Xianbei, one of the three major Xianbei tribes in western Liaoning, and almost destroyed the elite class of the Duan Xianbei, and the Duan Xianbei officially withdrew from the stage of "Lord", which is actually a big achievement.

Murong Xianbei and Yuwen Xianbei were still jumping up and down because they had more powerful generals, and the relatively weak Duan Xianbei was destroyed by Zhou Yafu and Li Guang.

These tribes can easily be disintegrated and assimilated once they lose their core figures.

"Multi-...... Thank...... Thank...... Thank...... Host...... Host...... Lord ......"

Li Guang, who was wrapped into a zongzi, heard that he was made a marquis, and finally stepped into the circle of nobles, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement, and wanted to struggle to thank him, but his actions couldn't help but be a little funny.

The generals who were originally in a heavy mood couldn't help laughing because of Li Guang's behavior.

"You have a good rest and return to Zhou Yafu's subordinates to lead the troops as soon as possible."

Chutian asked Li Guang to recover from his injuries, fearing that Li Guang's strength would also decline permanently like Monk Wanyan Chen.

The wounds inflicted by the red-clothed cannon on Monk Wanyan Chen were too severe, and it can be seen that although the number of enemies killed by the red-clothed cannon was not large, no one could withstand the bombardment of the red-clothed cannon.

"Yes......!"

Li Guang lay back on the stretcher, closed his eyes, showed a peaceful smile, and remained motionless.

This guy won't die because his wish has come true, right?

At Chu Tian's signal, Sun Bin put away his robe and reached out to probe Li Guang's snort, revealing a helpless expression.

Li Guang just fell asleep because he was satisfied.

The strange Li Guang startled Chu Tian, and Chu Tian thought that General Fei of the Han Empire would die in this battle.

In fact, it is not difficult to be a marquis in troubled times, and when other civilization areas are attacked in the future, the title can be sealed.

During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it was much more difficult to be a marquis, because the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was not a troubled time, and the wars were not frequent, and the main focus was on crusading against the Xiongnu.

In the real troubled times, there are continuous battles every year, and millions of people are killed in the war, such as this battle of Liaoxi, the soldiers and civilians killed on both sides of the war, as many as one million!

In the future, if the military generals make military achievements, Chu Tian will definitely have to reward them, after all, if the generals get the merit and the monarch can't reward it, they will be disgruntled and eventually rebel.

Moreover, each time the reward is higher, it is higher than the last time.

Not to mention the marquis, even the dukes, county kings, and princes are all everywhere.

Tang Taizong's feudal ministry will be the Duke of Britain, the Duke of Liang, the King of Hejian, and the King of Jiangxia, and the feudal department of Zhu Yuanzhang will be the Duke of Wei, the Duke of E, and so on......

It's all because of the great contributions made by this group of generals.

The merit of conquering the Eastern Han Dynasty is enough to make a marquis and duke.

If you conquer the main world, won't you be crowned king?

I'm afraid that even if it is crowned king, it may not be enough.

These are all issues that Chutian needs to consider.

In this battle, basically the generals at the level of the commander of the corps can be crowned marquis, and the fierce generals with more outstanding performance also have enough military merits to be marquis, such as Li Guang and Wanyan Chen.

The generals of other battlefields also counted their own merits.

Chu Tian was about to turn his attention to the red-clothed cannon when another batch of prisoners and trophies arrived.

One of the wounded war horses caught Chu Tian's attention.

This war horse is Mingguan's mount, with purple fur and bright eyes, it looks like a divine horse, and it is probably at the same level as Jueying.

It's just that this divine horse was hit by an arrow, which indirectly led to the collapse of the Ming army.

"If you are hit by an arrow, you haven't died yet, it's your luck."

Chu Tian took in Ming Guan's mount.

Maybe this war horse can survive after recuperating for a while.

Chu Tian took a look at the panel of this war horse, and the name of the war horse made Chu Tian's eyes light up.

[Name]: Sa Lu Purple (Imperial Level)

[Weight]: S [Speed]: SS [Endurance]: SSS [Impact]: S

[Special Effect - Loyal Horse]: When the owner encounters danger, within a radius of 100 meters, the pro-soldier attribute is temporarily +20%, and the loyalty is temporarily +30%.

[Description]: Tang Taizong Li Shimin's eastern expedition to Luoyang, Pingwang Shichong's mount, the battle of Pishan, Li Shimin was besieged, Salu purple arrows, the guards desperately protected Li Shimin, after breaking through, Salu Zi died.

It turned out to be Tang Taizong's mount, Salu Zi......

Tang Taizong has successively taken six horses as mounts, conquered the world, respectively, Fist Mao, Shivachi, White Hoof, Teller, Qinghu, Sa Lu Zi, in the cemetery of Tang Taizong, there are six stone carvings of the divine horses, also known as "Zhaoling Six Horses", it can be seen that Tang Taizong loves the six horses.

The French and Americans in later generations stole the stone carvings of the six horses of Zhaoling at the end of the Qing Dynasty, which is another story.

I didn't expect to see the living Sa Lu Purple here.

Li Shimin's mastermind Fang Xuanling seemed to be very interested in Sa Luzi, and said to himself: "Yan Chaoyue, Gu Teng Shenjun, Qi Sanchuan, Wei Ling Eight Formations." ”

"It's indeed a divine horse, but such a divine horse can be hit by an arrow. Can it be found out who shot and injured Sa Luzi? ”

Chu Tian saw that Sa Luzi had a wound.

Shooting and wounding the person who was sassy and purple indirectly led to a change in the situation on the battlefield.

"My lord, this is the ...... of removing the shaft of the arrow from the wound of the horse."

A veterinarian accompanying the army presented a broken arrow to Chu Tian.

Chu Tian took the shaft of the arrow.

This is a special armor-piercing arrow, which may have come from Ou Yezi, or Mo Xie, the daughter of Ou Yezi, or the son-in-law of Ou Yezi.

Chu Tian recognized it at a glance, because the bow and arrow he used were also specially offered by the master caster.

Generally, most of the people who use this kind of special arrows are the senior generals of the Xia army.

After all, the cost of such an armor-piercing arrow is a few taels of silver, or even dozens of taels of silver, and it also requires the help of legendary craftsmen such as Ou Yezi and Mo Yezi, and only generals who are good at bows and arrows are qualified to use it.

Chu Tian looked at the words on the arrow shaft and saw two small seals engraved with "Mulan".

This is the arrow that Mulan usually uses......

In other words, in the melee, the person who accidentally shot and injured Sa Luzi turned out to be Mulan......
