Chapter 56: Crossing the River (I)

With the death of Wu Guogong, the entire Yangzhou was completely taken, and then the old things began, the whole city, the search for those diehards, and some families who did not have time to join the new dynasty, everyone will be taken down and executed.

It took nine days to clear Yangzhou, and after nine days, it was a quiet place, and the number of people who died in these nine days reached more than 50,000, including Wu Guogong's clansmen, some die-hard elements, and some big families who supported each other.

After taking Yangzhou, the king of Chu at this time had already occupied the three southern states and was about to unify the south, and then he could cross the river and go on a northern expedition.

At this time, the northern land was also frantically merging and fighting, and they had to complete the complete annexation when the Chu army completed the unification of the south, otherwise it would be too late after the Northern Expeditionary army crossed the river.

After pacifying Yangzhou, it is time to reward meritorious deeds, Jiang Cheng this time, as a vanguard, cleared the way forward for the army, and when attacking the city, he was also the first soldier to fight, so this time he was directly promoted to the general of Zhengwupin.

The position of General Zhichong of Wupin is not small, he can command 5,000 soldiers, and his power is also very great.

Of course, even the emperor's position has no effect on Jiang Cheng, what he needs is the dynasty dragon qi, and he needs the dynasty dragon qi to make his cultivation compare.

The dynasty dragon qi of the humane world is different from the dynasty of the ordinary world world, Jiang Cheng also served as an emperor back then, but the dynasty dragon qi at that time was of no use.

But in the humane world, the effect of dragon qi is too great, sealing ten thousand laws, and one word can pardon gods and ghosts.

And as a general of the fifth grade, he can feel that the dragon qi of the entire Chu State is now the hottest time, if nothing else, it must be the Chu State that will unify the world in the end.

......

Time passed slowly, and after the class master returned to the dynasty, Jiang Cheng stayed in the barracks and didn't go anywhere, and spent all day studying the use of dragon qi and the difference between it and the normal world.

After a year, the army was finally mobilized, and the army was divided into two routes, one way to Jiaozhou, and the other to be ready to go north at any time, and the dense warships were already ready to go on the Yangtze River waterway.

"Woo woo!" the horn began to blow, and then the warship rushed towards the exercise target.

"Good!"

At this time, they were training for the landing operation, which was a rehearsal for the upcoming Northern Expedition, and after Jiaozhou was taken, the army returned to the Northern Expedition to cross the river.

"Newspaper. "Just when Jiang Cheng, King Chu and others were watching the exercise, there were front-line heralds who came quickly.

"Your Majesty, General Wang has successfully taken Jiaozhou, this is the battle report. The herald handed over the battle report.

The king of Chu also smiled after reading the battle report, Jiaozhou has been lowered, so it will be a matter of time before he crosses the river and goes north.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is General Wang's battle report, you all take a look. The king of Chu handed the battle report of Jiaozhou to everyone.

Jiang Cheng and several people circulated it one after another, and they all showed joy.

"Intensify training, and after three months assemble a large army and start crossing the river. "As the order of the king of Chu was conveyed, then everyone began to equip the work, and the date for crossing the river also needed to be set.

.......

Three months later, the 400,000 troops of the Northern Expedition were ready to go, and the dense warships were already full of troops.

"Let's go!"

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!"

With the sound of Wansheng coming out, the king of Chu also boarded the warship.

"Spot the enemy. "At this time, the banks of the Yangtze River were already full of troops, and there were soldiers everywhere, and these soldiers were assembled by the major warlord groups of the Northern Expedition.

The northern land is very chaotic, and one by one, the king, or the king of grass, occupies the king.

At this time, almost all the warlords of the Northland were assembled, of course, they did not want to gather, but they came under the persecution of the Xuanzhen Dao of the Northland Dao.

Xuanzhen Dao is the first gate in the north, and it can also be said to be the first great avenue gate in the world, so to speak, the Dao gate of cultivation in the world, and they occupy eighty percent of it.

And the Xuan Zhen Dao swelled more rapidly with the help of the chaos in the world, and they controlled almost most of the princes in the North, and their desire was to establish an earthly Dao country.

But unfortunately, their ideals have not yet been realized, and the king of Chu rose in the south, and then quickly unified the south, and then the northern expedition was about to begin.

And their Xuanzhen Dao seems to be powerful, but if they really face the Northern Expeditionary Army, they really don't know how to die.

You must know that there are 400,000 troops in the Northern Expedition, and under the military spirit, even their seventh-order real people have to kneel.

Moreover, with a unified dynasty, his own dragon qi can seal all their monks, so if you want to say who in the world wants the world to be peaceful the most, then Xuanzhen Dao is the right one.

This is not something that can be summed up without pity for the people, they need to speak over there when they sit there, and they, as vested interests, will definitely not want the unification of the world.

But now it's different, the Northern Expedition army has already arrived in the city, even if they are unwilling, they can only unite all the princes now, and almost their entire sect has come to the princes' alliance.

"Meet the enemy!" The speed of the warship was very fast, and there were some royal monks who accelerated the army's march, so after three hours, the princes' alliance had already seen the warship of the Chu army.

"Archer!"

"Release!" After seeing the army of the Chu army, the archers in the rear immediately wound up and released their arrows.

"Dodge!" the general on the ship kept ordering to dodge after seeing the arrows in the sky, or raise his shield to block it.

"Bell, bell, bell!" Dense arrows kept falling, people were constantly shot, and some warships were directly nailed into hedgehogs.

"Archer, release the arrow!" The Chu army also ordered the archers to start releasing arrows after three rounds of bow and arrow strikes.

"Kill!"

When the archers of the Chu army released their arrows, the warships also took advantage of this time to approach the shore, and then one by one the generals ordered to charge into the beachhead and establish positions.

"Kill!"

Jiang Cheng led his personal army to step onto the shore first.

"Puff puff!" The halberd in his hand kept waving, and the soldiers who came to stop Jiang Cheng were constantly killed, and one by one the soldiers were cut off by him before they could get close to him.

However, there are too many of these soldiers, you must know that the total number of princes' coalition troops has reached 500,000, so many people have come to the entire river beach, and the Chu army that crossed the river was blocked by the coalition troops that went forward and followed.

"Kill!"

"Break a road, build a position. "There are constantly loud shouts from the generals.
