Chapter 30: Swinging the army south
The flames were blazing, and there were broken walls and ruins everywhere. At this time, Yang Futian's eyes were still full of shock, although he had already seen the horror of the thunder strike, but seeing the terrifying scene in front of him, Yang Futian was still terrified.
The Jin army was defeated, and the defeat was so fast that Yang was shocked by the defeat of the sky. At this time, there was no longer a living Jin army on the battlefield, and the Jin army that could escape this battle would not exceed a thousand, and more Jin troops had died completely.
The process of this battle was very simple, and it simply shocked Guo Yaoshi and Yang Yutian. The army was ambushed in the place where the Jin army must pass through the north, and when the Jin army approached, the ambush soldiers came out and killed the Jin army by surprise.
If this is all there is, the Jin army will naturally not be defeated. You must know that at this time, the Jin army returning to the north had nearly 100,000 people, which was also the reason why the Jin army was fanfare and was not afraid of ambushes. Under the onslaught of 100,000 cavalry, what kind of ambush is not enough to see.
But when Thor Strike appeared, when dynamite first showed its destructive power in this world. The Jin army completely collapsed, the terrifying sound like the birth of the thunder god, the blazing flames, the terrifying explosive power, the Jin army was instantly frightened.
The power of the explosives was not that great, but because no one had ever seen it, the sound and power of the explosion made the horses of the Jin army completely uncontrollable. At this time, Lu Yi's army came out, and it was a one-sided massacre.
Because they were so shocked, many of the golden soldiers did not dare to resist at all, and knelt on the ground and begged for forgiveness from the gods. Lu Yi also did not have the kindness of a woman, Lu Yi did not need to be taken prisoner, and all the Jin soldiers who were alive were ordered to be executed by Lu Yi.
Under Lu Yi's arrangement, the army set up layers of ambushes, and after defeating the Jin army, not many of the Jin army were able to escape. In this battle, Lu Yi almost completely annihilated the army of the East Road of the Jin Kingdom, as long as the army of the West Road of the Jin Kingdom was destroyed, there were really not many soldiers in the Jin Country who could fight.
At this time, although the Jin State destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty, because it had just risen, there were only about 200,000 soldiers in the country who could fight. This time to the south to destroy the Song Dynasty, the Jin State dispatched nearly 180,000 troops. If these armies are annihilated, it will be difficult for the Jin Kingdom to muster much more strength in a short period of time.
After the annihilation of the Jin army, the wealth plundered by the Jin army from the Northern Song Dynasty was cheaper than Lu Yi. You know, this is the wealth accumulated by the Northern Song Dynasty for several generations. After getting this wealth, Lu Yi's pockets bulged all of a sudden.
In the midst of the chaos, the captured royal family members of the Great Song Dynasty were discovered, including the two sects of Qin and Hui, as well as many concubines in the harem. These people, the sergeants below don't know what to do, so they can only leave it to Lu Yi to decide.
"Kill! However, this matter needs to be kept secret, so it is said that the Jin army and jade are burned and killed! Lu Yi didn't hesitate at all, it's always a scourge for these people to stay, but they can't be killed blatantly.
In fact, keeping these people, you can do what Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and when the time comes, it will be twice the result with half the effort to recover the Central Plains. However, with absolute strength, there is no need to act like this at all, and crush it all the way, now that there is no one in the north who is Lu Yi's opponent, it is a trouble to keep these people.
Soon the battlefield was cleaned, and Lu Yi returned to Zhuozhou with the army and booty. Now that the Jin army has been wiped out, and the entire northern Jin country has no more soldiers to fight, at this time, Lu Yi naturally wants to completely control the sixteen states of Yanyun in his own hands.
Under Lu Yi's arrangement, Guo Yaoshi quickly led his army north, this time Lu Yi wanted to completely occupy the area south of Shanhaiguan and completely block the Jin Kingdom from the Great Wall, so that Lu Yi could concentrate on sweeping the Central Plains.
After seeing the power of the Thunder God Strike, Pharmacist Guo is now full of confidence. Not to mention that the Jin Kingdom does not have many troops, even if the Jin Kingdom still has military strength, Guo Yaoshi is not afraid at all. When the god of thunder strikes, everything is destroyed.
Three days later, the news of Li Er's annihilation of the army of the West Road of the Jin Kingdom came. It turned out that Li Er received Lu Yi's military order, ambushed the Jinguo West Route Army where it must pass, and used Thor to attack it unprepared, and wiped out all the Jinguo West Route Army in one fell swoop.
At this point, all the armies of the Jin State that went south to destroy the Northern Song Dynasty were wiped out by Lu Yi. In the past, the Jin State was extremely strong and invincible, but after the two armies were wiped out, the Jin State was already greatly injured, and the number of soldiers in the country was estimated to be no more than 50,000.
At this time, the news had not yet spread, and Lu Yi ordered the two armies to move north, and in just over half a month, they completely occupied many cities north of the Great Wall. At this time, the Jin Kingdom had already received the news of the annihilation of the two-way army, and in fright, he did not dare to go south again.
The Jin Kingdom suffered heavy losses and did not dare to go south again. Before it was clear why the two armies were annihilated, the Jin Kingdom was like a bird with a frightened bow. At this time, Lu Yi and Yang Yutian were playing chess in Zhuozhou City.
Yang Yutian put down a black chess piece, looked at Lu Yi and said: "After this battle, at least ten years, there is no possibility for the Jin army to go south. The Northern Song Dynasty has perished, and there are no more soldiers to fight in the north. When the time comes, you just need to wave your army to the south, and it will be easy to pacify the Central Plains! ”
"It's a pity that the time is too short, and the troops are still a little insufficient, it is enough to pacify the Central Plains, but it is a little insufficient to pacify the world!" Lu Yi pondered for a moment, put down a white chess piece and said.
"It's appalling that you can do this in such a short period of time. However, my Holy Sect can help you stabilize the Yanyun region, even if you take people south! Yang said.
Lu Yi nodded and didn't speak, what Yang Yutian had in mind, Lu Yi naturally knew. After all, Lu Yi's rise is still short, and it is not as good as the Western Regions Demon Sect that has been operating in Liao for many years. If the Yanyun region is handed over to Yang Futian, after a long time, the Yanyun region will inevitably be controlled by the Western Regions Demon Sect.
However, Lu Yi was not worried about Yang Futian's careful thinking, after seeing the terrifying power of the Thunder God Strike, Lu Yi believed that Yang Futian did not dare to go too far, in the face of absolute strength, some conspiracies and tricks had nowhere to hide.
Just when Lu Yi spent time sorting out the Yanyun region, the news of Lu Yi's elimination of the two armies of the Jin Kingdom had spread all over the world. Previously, King Kang Zhao Gou had ascended the throne as emperor in Yingtianfu in Nanjing and re-established the Song Dynasty.
When Zhao Gou heard the news that the two armies of the Jin State had been wiped out, he was overjoyed and did not continue to flee south. On the contrary, in Nanjing, Yingtianfu summoned the army of Qinwang from all walks of life, and there were signs of going back to Kaifeng.
At this time, there were only some puppet regimes supported by the Jin State in the entire Central Plains region, and when they heard the news that the two armies of the Jin State were all wiped out, they were naturally panicked. At this time, Zhao Gou ascended the throne and became emperor, and these people pleaded guilty to Zhao Gou.
When Zhao Gou saw the rebellion and obedience, he was naturally full of spirits, and immediately led the army to Kaifeng Mansion. For a time, the situation in the world changed drastically, and the Great Song Dynasty, which had just been destroyed by the Jin State, was actually a scene of prosperity.
Before Lu Yi could pacify the Yanyun region, Zhao Gou's envoy had already arrived in Zhuozhou City. Zhao Gou's will is very simple, that is, to make Lu Yi the king of Yan and manage the entire Yanyun region, and this reward is not unrich.
"Zhao Gou's meaning is very clear, that is, he wants us to help him watch the Jin Kingdom, and he is fortunate to be his Taiping Emperor in Kaifeng. It's a pity that Zhao Gou's wishful thinking is doomed to fail! "How could Yang Yutian not know Lu Yi's ambitions, how could he let Lu Yi stop?
However, Lu Yi was not in a hurry, but waited for a month after completely controlling the Yanyun region. Only then did Lu Yi take Li Er and Guo Yaoshi, lead an army of 80,000, and wave his army south.
At this time, Zhao Gou's subordinates also gathered more than 100,000 troops, but these armies were uneven, and their combat power was seriously insufficient. Hearing the news that Lu Yi led his army south, Zhao Gou was in a hurry, so he could only muster up 100,000 troops to rush to the battle.
The Song army was defeated in the face of the Jin army, not to mention Lu Yi's tiger and wolf army. Even without the Thor Strike, Lu Yi could defeat the Song army. Sure enough, the 100,000 Song army was not vulnerable at all, and Lu Yi won three battles and three victories, and he could defeat all the 100,000 Song troops.
In the face of the Song army, Lu Yi did not kill on a large scale, and did not use the Thunder God Strike at all. The 100,000 Song army was defeated in three battles, and there were not many people who died, and most of the Song army were captured by Lu Yi.
Although these Song troops are not good at fighting, they are all men of the Han family after all, and as long as they have a little training, they can still become combatable soldiers. The main Lu Yi's rise was too short, and the troops were seriously insufficient, so it was the best policy to capture these Song troops.
The Song army was defeated and retreated, and saw that Lu Yi was about to attack Kaifeng City. Yang Futian came from Yanyun and brought a major news to Lu Yi: "The Shenhou Mansion is ready to make a move!" ”
It turned out that Yang Yutian got the news, and after the Shenhou Mansion learned the news that Lu Yi was waving his army to the south, he began to contact many martial arts masters. At this time, the Shenhou Mansion had gathered many martial arts masters and was ready to come to assassinate Lu Yi.
"A bunch of jumping clowns, don't be afraid!" Lu Yi's expression was indifferent, and Lu Yi was quite disdainful of the Shenhou Mansion for acting like this.
"It stands to reason that people in the rivers and lakes will not interfere in the affairs of the imperial court. It's just that this time my Holy Sect is involved, and the Central Plains Martial Arts are mostly enemies of our Holy Sect, so there is such a situation! Yang Yutian told the reason.
Originally, people in the rivers and lakes rarely participated in such a thing as changing the dynasty. However, it is difficult to hide the news that the Western Regions Demon Sect helped Lu Yi stabilize Yanyun, and the Central Plains Martial Arts have a blood feud with the Western Regions Demon Sect, so naturally they will not watch the Western Regions Demon Sect grow big under Lu Yi.
The Shenhou Mansion naturally represents the Great Song Dynasty, and under the tandem of the Shenhou Mansion, the Central Plains Martial Arts responded to the call, in fact, because of the Western Regions Demon Sect. Otherwise, when Lu Yi wins the world, won't the Western Regions Demon Sect be pressed on the head of the Central Plains Martial Arts?
"It's okay, I expected this situation at the beginning!" When he subdued the Western Regions Demon Sect, Lu Yi had also weighed the pros and cons, and naturally knew the blood feud between the Western Regions Demon Sect and the Central Plains Martial Arts.
"There are a lot of masters who come this time, except for Zhuge Lao Pifu, who will definitely make a move. Shaolin Temple's pure energy Zen master, beggar gang leader, Huashan faction head and many other masters will come! These people are powerful and should not be underestimated! Yang Futian said with a solemn face.
"That's interesting, isn't it?" Lu Yi smiled, without a trace of worry on his face.
"In fact, in the army, no matter how many masters there are, it is impossible to kill you!" Yang said.
"Nope! This time, I'm going to get to know the top masters of the Central Plains martial arts for a while! ”
