Sichuan is densely populated and rich in natural resources, and in the strategy of being as strong as the sea, seizing Sichuan Province has always been the top priority.

In this day and age, population is always the most important resource.

Because of the invasion of energy from another world, some species have undergone a series of changes, coupled with the prosperity of maritime trade, so some crops have also entered China in advance.

Because the population of the Daning Empire was somewhat larger than that of the Ming Dynasty at the same time. And the population of this Sichuan is also more than that of the late Ming Dynasty in history, reaching more than 20 million.

Once Sichuan is captured, the area of the Great Yan Kingdom will reach 1.2 million square kilometers, with a population of more than 50 million.

Moreover, once Sichuan is captured, the Great Yan Kingdom will fundamentally put an end to the situation of being attacked on its back and will have a complete strategic defensive advantage. Retreat can be defended, and advance can attack the hinterland of the Daning Empire such as Huguang, Shaanxi, etc.

The Daning Empire's chaotic army in Sichuan added up to more than 100,000, but most of them were miscellaneous troops, and only the 60,000 army of the Marquis of Sword Pavilion was the real elite.

Zhang Wenzhao, the Marquis of Sword Pavilion, was fiefdom in Sword Pavilion, but his official position was the governor of Sichuan, and the entire Sichuan Province was his defense.

Like the other military leaders, he also took the money of the Fang family, had a lot of trade, and did not obey the emperor's will very much.

But he is an unruly person, although he doesn't pay much attention to the emperor's will, but the other party is also relatively cold, and he has been the king and hegemon in Sichuan for too long, so some people don't pay much attention to it.

When the Duke of Zhennan led his army south, he once asked the emperor to issue an order, and the Marquis of Jiange sent 20,000 troops. As a result, Zhang Wenzhao, the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion, asked the emperor for two million taels of military expenses, and the army immediately started.

20,000 troops for 2 million taels? Why don't you go and rob it?

As a result, the matter of Zhennan Gong asking Zhang Wenzhao to send troops was over. But before sending troops, the Duke of Zhennan personally entered the middle of the river, very modestly called himself a younger brother, and asked the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion to help keep an eye on the Li family.

At that time, Zhang Wenzhao, the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion, was greatly satisfied with his self-esteem and agreed to it.

However, when the Li clan rebelled, Zhang Wenzhao still did not move. His army was closer than the Marquis of Xuancheng, and the emperor did not know how many decrees he had made, and he also ignored them, allowing Li Ruhai to capture the provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou.

In a recent decree, the emperor reprimanded Zhang Wenzhao in an extremely harsh tone and ordered him to send troops.

As a result, Zhang Wenzhao led an army of 80,000 and stationed in the strategic location of Xuzhou.

The location of Xuzhou is roughly Yibin on the modern earth, and Guizhou and Yunnan are very close.

Of course, this is not because he suddenly listened to the emperor's words, but because Li Zhan seized Guizhou too quickly, and his military strength expanded too quickly, the Marquis of Jiange regarded Sichuan as his own territory, and I don't care if you Li seized Guizhou and Yunnan, but definitely don't fight my idea of Sichuan.

Now, Li Zhan's army is approaching Sichuan, and Zhang Wenzhao, the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion, is of course going to lead the army to block it.

This is the psychology of a typical warlord and an earth emperor, domineering and short-sighted.

After the Marquis of Jiange led an army of 80,000 into Xuzhou, Li Ruhai was suddenly very nervous. And the crown prince Li Zhan's troops were in full swing, and he captured two provinces in a row, so of course he refused to lose the momentum, and immediately led the army to confront Zhang Wenzhao.

Before Li Wanwan was defeated, Li Ruhai and Du Chang's negotiations failed, and the Great Yan Kingdom wanted to concentrate all its forces to eliminate Du Chang, so the crown prince Li Zhan's 150,000 main army returned to the south, and Li Zhan only led 60,000 troops to confront the 80,000 army of the Marquis of Jiange, and military friction often occurred.

There was no big battle, and there were several small battles with hundreds of people, each with its own victory or defeat.

But from beginning to end, Zhang Wenzhao never crossed the border.

After Li Ruhai learned about it, he said disdainfully: "It's just a dog guarding the household, so don't worry about it." ”

Suddenly, he felt that the most important thing was to exterminate Du Bian's tiger cub, so Li Ruhai ordered Li Ruhu, who was guarding Yunnan, to lead an army of 50,000 to return to the division.

So far, the army directly under the command of Li Ruhai has exceeded 300,000.

These more than 300,000 troops continued to assemble in the Great Yan King City, and the final decisive battle with Du Bian was about to break out.

......

After nearly two months of long travel, the 70,000 troops of Xuancheng Hou Lu Zhan finally entered the territory of Hunan, and they could join forces with Du Chang in the south, and attack Guizhou occupied by the Li Yan Kingdom in the west.

However, at this time, Xuancheng Hou Lu Zhan ushered in a distinguished guest, Du Jiang's younger brother Du Zheng, Du Cheng's cheap sixth uncle.

"Marquis Xuancheng, how much military money did you get from the emperor?" Du Zheng asked directly.

"Three hundred thousand taels. Lu Zhandao.

Du Zheng directly handed over a stack of silver tickets and said: "This is 350,000 taels, don't move your army, just garrison Hunan." ”

Xuancheng Marquis Lu Zhan said: "My family has been arrested by Li Lianting, if I stop, the emperor will kill my whole family." ”

Du Zheng said lightly: "The emperor is about to starve to death." ”

Xuancheng Marquis Lu Zhan said: "Before the emperor starves to death, he can also kill my whole family." ”

Du Zheng's face turned cold, and he took out a stack of silver tickets and said: "Add another 100,000 taels, why should the eldest husband have no wife, Xuancheng Hou is still very young." And the emperor can kill your whole family, aren't you still alive? The most important thing is that the emperor can kill your whole family, and others can do it too. ”

These words are a naked threat, the emperor can kill your Lu Zhan's entire family, and the Fang family can also do it.

Immediately afterwards, Du Bian's cheap sixth uncle Du Zheng said: "Xuancheng Hou, Du Bian must die this time, whoever dares to obstruct it, really wants to kill his whole family, and there will be no one less neat and tidy." ”

That night, Xuancheng Hou Lu Zhan was in a daze all night, looking at the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in his hand.

There are 300,000 taels that the emperor squeezed out with all his might, and there are also 450,000 taels given by the Fang system.

"Hehe, if you have a soldier, you are the king of grass, and you didn't fight a battle, but you earned hundreds of thousands of taels. Xuancheng Hou Lu Zhan said: "Why is the eldest husband without a wife and children." Your Majesty the Emperor is difficult to protect yourself, so don't care about the life or death of the little gelding. ”

A day later, Xuancheng Marquis Lu Zhan fell ill, and the army officially stopped.

......

Sichuan, Xuzhou Prefecture.

Zhang Wenzhao, the governor of Sichuan and the marquis of Jiange, received a letter from the Earl of Zhenxi, the prefect of Baise, and the general soldier of Baise.

Of course, this letter was written by Li Wenyu in a tone of Du Chang.

In the letter, he reviewed the heroic history of Marquis Zhang Wenzhao in thousands of words, and called him the Optimus Jade Pillar in the southwest of the Daning Empire.

Then the letter said that he had heard that the Marquis of Zhang Wenzhao was about to celebrate his 55th birthday, and he specially presented 10,000 taels of gold as a birthday gift.

In the end, in the letter, Du Chang sincerely requested that Zhang Wenzhao, the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion, could send troops to Yunnan Province, because at this time, the Li clan had no generals to guard the Yunnan Province, and the strength was only tens of thousands of miscellaneous troops, and the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion could make immortal contributions.

The implication is, of course, that Zhang Wenzhao, the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion, will send troops to contain the Li clan, and not let Li Ruhai gather hundreds of thousands of troops together to attack Du Bian.

And in the letter, he said from the bottom of his heart that once he was exterminated, the first thing to bear the brunt of would be his Sword Pavilion Marquis's Sichuan.

After reading it, Zhang Wenzhao, the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion, said lightly: "Ten thousand taels of gold were really delivered?"

The henchman said: "I really received it, 10,000 taels of gold, and that little eunuch has made a lot of money." ”

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion said: "The gold is accepted, and the messenger of Du Chang is taken away." A little gelding actually called me a count in front of five people and six people? When I was in the empire, you were still in your father's eggs, you didn't even have eggs, what kind of thing?"

"Bring the paper. Zhang Wenzhao, the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion, said, he finished his decoration.

Immediately after, he said, "Forget it, no need." Let's use the letter of the little gelding, the reverse side is clean. ”

Then, he wiped his ass directly with the letter Du Chang gave him.

......

Evil Dragon Village!

Mo Ao, the leader of the old Mo clan and the leader of the Thirteen Villages, thought simply.

Want to set up a big ambush pocket array in the valley, and then expect Fu Hongbing to lead the army to obediently drill into it?

Where is it so simple?

After Fu Hongbing came to the entrance of the valley, she immediately felt a dangerous aura, not that she had discovered something, but instinctively felt that this place was very suitable for ambush.

However, this is the entrance to the Evil Dragon Village, and if you want to attack the Evil Dragon Village, this is the place you must pass.

"Stop!" Fu Hongbing gave an order, and three hundred giant wolf cavalry and three thousand warriors from the peerless dungeon immediately stopped in front of the entrance of the valley.

"Set up camp. Fu Hongbing gave an order.

Suddenly, Mo Ao, the leader of the old Mo clan, was stunned, he was not fooled, and he didn't enter his encirclement?

What should I do?

Du Yun said: "This female general under Du Bian's gelding dog feels very keen, he senses the danger, and he won't drill this pocket formation." ”

Mo Ao's eyes were cold and said: "His grandmother's, such a treacherous girl." But she couldn't take much food with her after a long journey. She can't afford it, I can. ”

This person is extremely cunning, and he will never take the initiative to attack and lose his troops, even if the troops in his hands are five or six times more than Fu Hongbing.

However, because of this, he is completely shrunk in the turtle shell, which will make it very difficult for Fu Hongbing.

The attack went into an ambush.

If she doesn't attack, the food she brought will indeed not last long, and the decisive battle between Du Bian and Li Ruhai is imminent, so she really doesn't have the effort to spend here.

The two sides confronted each other for half an hour.

Mo Ao knew that Fu Hongbing would definitely not attack today, nor would he enter the ambush circle.

So, he returned to the Dragon's Cave.

Inside, there were twelve people sitting full, who were the other leaders of the old Mo's department, each of whom occupied a big mountain, opened up a mountain area to grow devil fruit (poppy), and had eaten and drunk spicy food and spicy food over the years, wore gold and silver, and lived a beautiful life.

"That girl under the Du Bian Xiao Gelding Party is not fooled and is unwilling to get into our encirclement, but it doesn't matter. Mo Ao said: "Let's send people to cut off their back roads first, and then eat up their food, and destroy them in one go." Grandma's, that treacherous girl Lao Tzu must kill her alive, Lao Tzu wasted the pocket array arranged so much, she didn't even get in. ”

At that moment, Mo Ao and the other twelve village owners began to eat meat and drink a lot.

Of course, Mo Ao drinks water, he is very treacherous, and he knows that he can't get drunk at this time.

At this moment, a voice sounded outside: "Great Leader, the Holy Fire Sect Priest led three thousand Holy Fire Sect troops to arrive and ask to see the Great Leader. ”

At this time, Du Yun, the envoy of Du Jiang, the governor of Guangxi, suddenly said: "Great leader, it is better to let this shaman lead the three thousand Holy Fire Sect army to attack Fu Hongbing's three thousand army, and we will reap the benefits." ”

Mo Ao, the leader of the old Mo clan, laughed and said, "It is reasonable, anyway, Du Bian and King Li are mortal enemies, let that Holy Fire Sect shaman come in!"

A moment later, the Holy Fire Sect priest led dozens of Holy Fire Sect masters into the cave of the Evil Dragon Village.

Du Chang's whole body was shrouded in a black cloak, only his two eyes were exposed, and there was no flaw in dressing up as a Holy Fire Sect priest.

When Mo Ao saw Du Chang's Holy Fire Sect priest, his eyes suddenly turned cold and said, "My heart is like a lotus fire!"

Obviously, this is the password, and it is a password unique to the Holy Fire Sect and the old Mo's department.

Du Bianhan said hoarsely, "Has the Great Leader Mo surrendered to the Demon Lotus Sect?"

For the words of both sides are my heart like a holy fire, purifying the world.

Then, in a hoarse voice, Du Bian said meticulously: "Purify the world! The great leader of Mo has blasphemed my Holy Fire Sect, has no sincerity, and has taken his leave!"

Where is Mo Ao willing to let Du Chang just leave? He still wants to fool the three thousand Holy Fire Sect troops to attack Fu Hongbing's three thousand peerless dungeon warriors.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Mo Ao hurriedly said: "It's my slip of the tongue, it's my slip of the tongue." ”

Then, Mo Ao said: "Shaman, at this time, your mortal enemy Du Chang's army is outside the valley, a total of three thousand people, how about you and I join forces to destroy Du Chang's gelding dog?"

Du Bian was silent for a moment and said, "Okay." ”

Mo Ao said: "Shaman, your Holy Fire Sect army is brave and invincible, how about you take the lead?"

Du Bian was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Okay." ”

Then, Du Bian stretched out his hand towards Mo Ao and said, "A word is a certainty." ”

This Mo Ao's martial arts are very high, and he has reached the point of being a quasi-grandmaster, and he is the one with the highest martial arts in the old Mo clan.

He knew that Du Bian agreed to shake his palm, and he was as cunning as a ghost in his heart, so he quietly reached behind his back and put on two layers of gloves, one leather glove and one wire glove, so that all poisons would not invade.

"A word is a certainty!" Mo Ao and Du Changshen struck each other, and then their two hands clasped together.

And at this moment, a small white hell flame emerged from Du Chang's palm.

Immediately afterward, the leader of the old Mo's department was stunned and found that his entire right hand was burning.

"Ah...... Yes...... Ah......h

He suddenly let out a terrible scream.

Then, he slapped himself desperately, trying to extinguish the flames.

But the hellfire could not be extinguished, but the whole body began to burn.

"Ah...... Yes...... Ah......h

The incomparably terrible scream lasted only three seconds.

"Boom ......"

A huge white flame burst forth.

In just an instant, the whole body of the leader of the old Mo clan was burned to ashes, and his soul was completely scattered.

Suddenly, everyone present was stunned.

Du Yun, who was the closest, suddenly screamed, "You, you are not a Holy Fire Sect shaman, who are you?"

Du Bian lifted his mask and said in a cold voice: "Cousin, don't come to harm!"

Then, slash down with a slam move.

"Whoa......

In an instant, Du Bian's cheap cousin was split in half.

Immediately after, dozens of Holy Fire Sect masters rushed in, fighting with the other twelve leaders of the old Mo clan.

These twelve leaders' martial arts skills were not as high as the big leader Mo Ao, and they had already drunk a lot of wine, so they were certainly not the opponents of the Holy Fire Sect's powerhouses.

In a short moment, all were captured.

Du Bian lifted his mask and said: "This official is Du Bian, the Earl of Zhenxi of the Daning Empire, and Mo Ao is dead." Those who are willing to surrender to me kneel. If you don't want to surrender, die!"

The twelve old Mohs departments peeked at each other, and there was no response at once.

Du Yan stepped forward, aimed at a person's arm, and slashed it down.

"Ah......," the leader screamed.

Suddenly, the twelve leaders of the old Mo clan knelt down and said, "Willing to surrender, willing to surrender!"

Du said, "Go out and order your people to come down from the mountain and assemble in the valley." ”

......

More than an hour later!

Nearly 20,000 old Mo's troops all came down from the mountain, left their respective ambush positions, and began to assemble in the valley.

And in front of them was Fu Hongbing's army of more than 3,000, and behind them was the army of 3,000 Holy Fire Sect.

Du Chang's face was cold, and he said, "Rush to kill!"

Suddenly, Fu Hongbing's troops and the Holy Fire Sect Army attacked back and forth, and began to rush and kill frantically!

The combat effectiveness of these old divisions of the Mo clan was far inferior to the peerless dungeon warriors of Fu Hongbing's department, nor was it as good as the Holy Fire Sect army, and they were not in the ambush position, and under the front and rear attacks of the two armies of Du Yan, it was a completely one-sided slaughter.

Seeing this scene, more than a dozen leaders of the old Mo clan were completely stunned, and roared: "Why, why, we have surrendered, we have surrendered......"

Du Bian said: "For the bandits, kill you first until your soul is scattered, and then talk about it." ”

Slaughtered frantically for an hour.

Of the 20,000 people in the old Mo family, 5,000 were killed alive, and the remaining 15,000 were all kneeling on the ground.

Then, Du Chang gave a cruel order and waved his hand.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The dozen or so leaders of the old Mo clan who had surrendered just now were all beheaded.

Next, Du Bian ordered again: "All the bandit leaders with more than 100 people in the bandit army will be pushed out!"

A quarter of an hour later, more than 100 bandit leaders were identified, kneeling on the ground neatly, desperately crying wolves and kowtowing desperately: "My lord, we are willing to surrender, we are willing to surrender......

"Du Bian, you can't die well, you can't die well......"

Du Chang gave an order, and more than 100 bandit leaders were all killed.

At this time, there was no leader among the remaining 15,000 old Mo clans, and the largest official was just a small leader in charge of dozens of people.

Du Yan looked at the 15,000 people kneeling on the ground, and said in a cold voice: "Are you willing to be loyal to me? If you don't want to, kill them on the spot!"

The 15,000 old members of the Mo clan had already lost their souls, and they thought they were going to be killed, but after hearing Du Bian's words at this time, they were immediately ecstatic, and thanked Dai De and kowtowed: "Willing to be loyal to the adult, willing to be loyal to the adult!"

Fifteen thousand people knelt down neatly in front of Du Bian, and bowed desperately: "Meet your lord." ”

"Meet the Commander!"

"Meet the master!"
