Chapter 411: Turning Defeat into Victory (Finale)
Under the walls of the Great Qian Palace, Murong Yan finally arrived with the army.
All of them were in the dust, and they were extremely embarrassed.
Some of them had their armor torn by their swords, some of them were wrapped in blood-soaked linen, and even worse, they were already missing arms and legs.
Even Murong Yan, who was the commander-in-chief, had an extra scar on his face out of thin air.
This was in a street fight a few days ago, and he was injured by a stray arrow!
Now, he has to admit that when it comes to military attainments, he is indeed not half a star worse than the other party's military leaders.
These days, he has led 100,000 people under his command to engage in street battles with tens of thousands of people on the other side.
As a result, every time, it was his side that suffered heavy casualties.
Not only the loss of troops, but even the right-hand men under his command are also decreasing one by one.
And this is not only the result of the other party's insidious arrangement of traps, but also the other party's commander's ability to command the army like art!
It has even reached the point where it can perform micro-manipulation on units at the rank of ranks!
And in the middle of chaotic, overcrowded streets!
Murong Yan is the old man of Beiyan, he has not seen the Great Cadre Champion Hou with his own eyes, but he has heard his legend.
His record has also been analyzed.
The conclusion is that this man is a connoisseur of blitzkrieg!
Among the five princes, only when it comes to blitzkrieg, I am afraid that no one can beat it.
Not even those two military gods of Xiqi!
But such nuanced control of the military is not the strength of the other side.
Murong Yan wasn't sure, but he had a bold guess.
It is the general in front of him who is looking down on him condescendingly from the wall of the Daqian Imperial Palace, and in terms of military ability, I am afraid that he is not much better than the champion Hou a few years ago, or even better.
It's a freak, a demon!
But fortunately, since the street fighting these days, although they have suffered heavy losses, the other party has also suffered losses!
Even if the loss is small, it's still a loss, isn't it?
However, they have 100,000 people in Beiyan, but the other party only has tens of thousands, and there are many recruits, even if the number of people lost is small, they can't fight with them.
Therefore, after these days of street fighting, the Northern Yan army shrank again, and the number of people was sharply reduced to 50,000.
And on the side of Daqian, if he didn't guess wrong, I'm afraid that there are only a few thousand people left, and less than 10,000 people will die!
When the two sides met, they did not say a word.
After a long time, it was Murong Yan who was the first to break the silence.
"What is your last name?" In fact, he has already lost this battle so far.
The 300,000-strong army fought to only 50,000, and even if it won, it would be dishonorable, and it would only add to the laughter.
But even if he loses, he has to know who he is defeating.
"Huo Qiji!" Huo Qiji, who was on the city wall, was still expressionless, and spit out three words.
When Murong Yan heard this, his heart was pang, and he asked, "What is the relationship between the champion Hou of Daqian and Your Excellency?" ”
"It's my father!"
Murong Yan suddenly showed a look of surprise: "No wonder, it's also a tiger father without a dog!" ”
"You can do this to this extent, and you should be proud enough."
"The whole army obeys the order, follow me to kill! Those who take off their heads will be sealed and rewarded with 10,000 taels of gold! ”
As soon as these words came out, the army, which was still extremely tired, suddenly burst into tiger and wolf ambitions.
Ten thousand households, ten thousand taels of gold!
This is a wealth that ordinary people can hardly earn even if they work diligently for a lifetime!
Now, it's right in front of their eyes!
"Kill!"
In the midst of shouts, a new round of siege warfare began!
It's just that compared with the walls of Qiandu City, the walls of the imperial palace are much lower and more fragile.
Even if Huo Qiji wants to rely on the benefits of the city wall to exchange a very small price for the other party's greater casualties, I am afraid it will be very difficult.
The rest can only depend on the willpower of the soldiers on both sides!
On the first day, there were 5,000 defenders in the palace.
The next day, four thousand five hundred!
On the third day, four thousand two hundred!
On the fourth day, four thousand!
On the tenth day, three thousand!
On the eleventh day, Huo Qi, whose armor was covered with blood, staggered onto the city wall, looking at the black and oppressive Beiyan Iron Rider below, even he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart.
"Wei Qing, repeat what you just said!"
Wei Qing's body trembled when he looked at Huo Qijian like this, but even so, he still said tremblingly: "Last night, a cavalry broke through at the risk of death and brought the news to the palace. ”
"Say yes... The king of Zhenbei was stopped by the Xiliangshui army, and it was difficult to rush to help for a while, and we needed to hold on for a while. ”
Rumble!
Hearing this, Huo Qiji's eyes turned black and he almost fainted.
Seeing this, Wei Qing stepped forward and caught it.
For a while, it was old tears.
"This is the day to die, I can't do it!"
Huo Qiji looked at him, still didn't say a word, just stared at the sky blankly.
He seems, saw his father!
After a long time, he opened his mouth and said: "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven!" ”
On the fifteenth day, in the palace of Qiandu City, there were only 2,000 soldiers left.
On the twentieth day, only the last thousand remained.
The walls of the palace have been damaged several times.
Every time you repair it, it takes a lot of lives to fill it!
That's why the soldiers descended so quickly!
"King Zhenbei, are you still coming?" On the twenty-first day, Wei Qing was anxious.
Huo Qiji looked at him, coughing constantly, and after a long time, he calmed down and said, "Whether he comes or not, it's meaningless." ”
"Daqian, you're going to die!"
On the twenty-second day, the army of Daqian was only the last 500 men!
On the twenty-third day, there were only 100 left!
Murong Yan looked at the dilapidated walls of the palace and grinned.
After all, he won!
300,000 Beiyan Iron Horsemen were brutally beaten out 280,000!
Now the combat power that he can use in his hands is less than 20,000.
The other commander's record is like this, I'm afraid he can already go down in history!
But so what?
There are less than a hundred people, even if the two military gods of Xiqi join forces, they can't turn the sky with just these 100 people!
Murong Yan's eyes were hideous, and he roared angrily: "Charge!" Take the head of the enemy with me! ”
The next moment, the gate of the Daqian Palace was opened, and the remnants of the hundred-person army, led by Huo Qiji and Wei Qing, were holding swords one after another, just waiting for them to arrive.
Or rather, he is waiting for his imminent death!
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Listening to the shouts of killing, Huo Qiji closed his eyes slightly.
His body has been weak and sickly since he was a child, and when he became an adult, he was tortured by lung disease for several years, and he had long lost his strength.
When it comes to the art of war, he is confident that he is not inferior to anyone.
But if it is a hand-to-hand fight, I am afraid that even any soldier can easily kill him.
But even so, he never backed down.
His eyes opened, as sharp as the long knife in his hand.
The Huo family, there are only men who stand and die, and there are no kneeling and living miscreants!
"Kill!"
He took the lead in shouting, and then raised his knife to charge!
However, at this moment, a loud roar came!
Bang!
Thundered!
In the Northern Yan army, it was as if someone had thrown a shot of explosives.
The explosive exploded in an instant, causing countless casualties among the Beiyan sergeants, and the forward rush came to an abrupt halt.
"It's... How could it be? The surviving officers looked at each other in disbelief.
On the tall building, Li Dongbi, who looked at the explosives bag in his hand with such power, was also dumbfounded.
Good guy, this is what Gu Beichuan is doing in the workshop?
No wonder they want me to hide, if such a big killing weapon is exposed to the world, I don't know how much killing will be added.
Thundered!
He sighed as he threw out a bag of explosives again.
On the other side, there are bursts of shouts of killing!
"Kill! Kill the Northern Yan Barbarian Dog and restore my rivers and mountains! ”
The person at the head is none other than Xiang Qingfeng, the king of Jing!
Beside him, there was another man sitting on horseback, with a stern and worried face.
It's Gu Beichuan!
The reason why he took the opportunity to leave Qiandu was naturally not to escape, there were monks here, who could kill him in the whole world?
The reason why I will go is naturally to find reinforcements!
In the whole Daqian, the reinforcements he can invite are no one else except King Jing.
The reason why he invited King Jing is also very simple, he ascended the throne and became the emperor!
Now, Emperor Renxuan is dead, the crown prince is dead, and Emperor Tianshun, who has just ascended the throne, is also dead.
The only person in the Xiang royal family who is qualified to ascend the throne and claim the title of emperor is King Jing.
He sent troops at this time to fight for himself!
How could they refuse to send troops?
What's more, like Huo Qiji, King Jing has always wanted to prove himself with a war.
If you don't send troops at this time, when will you wait?
Because King Jing was not favored by himself, he did not have many troops under his command, only about 10,000 people.
But these 10,000 people who are ready to go, in the face of the 20,000 people who have been beaten to the point that Beiyan has lost their minds, plus the black powder explosives package he made in the workshop, if he can't win, King Jing might as well dig a pit and bury himself.
Sure enough, with King Jing's 10,000 living forces joining, the next battle was a little devastating.
Soon, Murong Yan's 20,000 people were slaughtered, and he himself was captured alive and sent to Huo Qiji, Wei Qing and others.
However, Wei Qing's attention was not on him at all, but on Gu Beichuan.
Once upon a time, when Gu Beichuan ignored his dissuasion and left.
He had some resentment about Gu Beichuan in his heart.
But even so, so what?
Everyone has their own aspirations, and there are some things that they just can't be forced.
But he never expected that when he thought that Daqian was going to perish.
It turned out that he came down with reinforcements and alleviated the crisis.
It's really...
Wei Qing froze in place for a while, with a lot of thoughts in his heart, and he didn't know what to think for a while.
In the end, a thousand words were all turned into one sentence: "Beichuan, I blame you wrong." ”
Subsequently, with the support of Wei Qing, Huo Qiji, Gu Beichuan and others, King Jing was put on the throne and ascended the throne as emperor, with the year name Jingtai.
Wei was young and old, begging for bones, and returning to his hometown.
Huo Qiji was named the champion Hou, and concurrently served as the Great Sima, commanding the military of the Great Cadres.
Gu Beichuan was named prime minister, the head of the civil officials.
Subsequently, Murong Yan's head was cut off and sent to the Emperor of Northern Yan, representing the official start of the war between Daqian and Northern Yan!
And after the 300,000 elites of Beiyan were exhausted, it only took a few months for the king of Zhenbei to slaughter the Xiliang Water Army, so that the other party no longer dared to cross the Canglan River!
Subsequently, the 300,000 Zhenbei army joined the 50,000 army that the imperial court had pieced together, a total of 350,000 troops, and attacked the imperial capital of Beiyan!
It lasted for half a month, and the Northern Yan Emperor was defeated.
Emperor Beiyan committed suicide in front of the Jinluan Palace.
The Northern Yan Kingdom is destroyed!
After returning to China, the king of Zhenbei officially retired, and the 300,000 Zhenbei troops were all returned to the imperial court.
In the same year, Gu Beichuan and Xiang Zhirou got married.
Subsequently, Gu Beichuan and Huo Qiji jointly assisted Emperor Jingtai to fight in the south and in the north, expanding their territory step by step, and finally annexed the countries, destroyed the Northern Yuan, and unified the world.
End of book!
