Chapter 230: Darkness and lightness(1/2)
This can't be fake news.
No one would be stupid enough to pass on false news that can be easily debunked at this time.
Moreover, this general of the Shenwu Army has been following King Wu all year round. To a certain extent, he represents the will of King Wu Sijiao.
Qi Xia's war of astonishing scale had, of course, locked up long-distance communications at the level of rules. Strong men like King Wu, who stood at the top of the world, had the means to maintain contact with people outside the battlefield.
In particular, the Jingmu War was news that everyone in the Xia Kingdom was paying close attention to. To a large extent, the people of the Xia Kingdom bet on the outcome of the Qi-Xia War on the victory of the Jing Kingdom.
They resisted desperately and were waiting for the outcome of the Battle of Jingmu.
It can be said that Sijiao was always paying attention to the progress of the Jingmu War and wished he could go to Shengguo to help in the battle.
After learning about the turning point of the Jingmu War, he immediately ordered people to spread the news throughout the city.
Fighting against the Qi people is more difficult than imagined... Most people in the Xia Kingdom have tried their best,
However, they could only taste the bitter consequences of successive defeats. The situation was so bad that the Xi Meng Mansion had to step forward and personally lead a strategy that was destined to be infamy for eternity, such as abandoning the Eastern Front.
However, the news of Jingguo's great victory over Muguo came faster than expected!
Probably due to the influence of the Jing Kingdom's westward expansion war, the Jing Kingdom and the Mu Kingdom were more liberal and aggressive than before.
I just regret that the message delivered by the Shenwu Army general was too brief, and I don’t know what the specific situation is. Beigong Nantu died in the battle, is Ying Jianghong still capable of fighting? Where is the remnant of the Xitian Master? How long does it take for Jingguo to complete the task?
At the end, take out your hand and go south...
Liu Xiyi felt extremely itchy and immediately said to Xi Mengfu: "You stay here for a while longer! I will come back for you later."
Before he could finish his words, the Imperial Master of Daxia, who didn't like to talk to him, had jumped off the tower and disappeared in a flash.
"His grandma's!" the Prime Minister of Daxia kicked him on the turret.
Beigong Nantu is the high priest of Shenmian Preaching and the person in charge of Cangtu Temple.
It can be said that his status in the entire Daimu Empire is only below that of the Queen of Muguo.
Even this "under one person" is not necessarily so accurate. Because Muguo is a country that combines politics and religion, and is the only overlord country in the world that believes in Shinto. The divine light of Cangtu God envelopes the grassland, while Beigong Nantu
It is God’s will that is represented.
One can imagine his status!
On many occasions, he was able to sit on an equal footing with the empress Helian Shanhai.
This time he left Qionglu Mountain and personally suppressed the army and went south, which was of extraordinary significance and demonstrated the determination of God Cangtu to spread his faith across the grasslands.
But he is such an important figure.
But he fell in this war and was killed by Nantian Master Ying Jianghong!
There is also the famous Iron Buddha, which ranks sixth among the top ten cavalry armies in the world. It is two ranks higher than Qi's Zhufeng Army, but it suffered a disastrous defeat on the battlefield of Sheng Kingdom...
There is no news that Jin Tandu died in the battle, but the Iron Buddha Tu was maimed. As the master of the Iron Buddha Tu, Jin Tandu was probably seriously injured even if he was not dead!
Overnight, the situation suddenly changed.
One of the two powerful true kings from the Mu Kingdom was killed in battle, and the other was maimed while leading his powerful army.
This war to redraw the boundaries between the Central Territory and the Northern Territory can be declared over.
Next, we just have to see where Jing Guo can hit and where he wants to hit!
As for the war between Jingmu and Mu, its impact was not just on the territory of Sheng Kingdom, but also on the central and northern regions?
For the entire Qixia battlefield, this news may have a decisive impact!
Of course, the news that King Wu Sijiao could obtain could also be obtained by Yan Ping, who was accompanying the Zhenjun army.
Thirty-three years ago, the Qi army came to Guiyi City, Yitian Temple was built, Jingguo's three sects, and countless powerful auras came out of thin air... The Qi army had to return to the court, and even directly withdrew from the Southern Territory .
The entire Qi State, from Emperor Qi on down, fought to the death in a bloody battle for supremacy. When the final victory came, Jing Guo easily cut off a large chunk of the harvest. He also drew a boundary and did not allow the Qi people to go south again. .
This story is not unfamiliar to people in Qi.
People in Qi have remembered this kind of frustration for many years!
In the battle of Xingyueyuan, Qi Tianjiao defeated Jing Tianjiao, and Jingguo was forced to dismantle Yitian Temple in Xiaguo. Many Qi people cried with joy.
Then Cao Jie secretly acted for the generals of the Mu Kingdom, beheaded Qi Hong, captured Liyuan, and helped the Mu Kingdom soldiers to leave the grassland. This led to the war against Xia.
This time, the whole country of Qi was united as one, and the monarchs and ministers worked hard, resulting in a series of battles and victories.
But at this time, news came that the Jingmu War had already been decided!
Although there is no official battle report yet, the war is still continuing in the territory of Shengguo.
However, Beigong and Nantu, the high priests of Shenmian Evangelism, have been killed in the battle, and the Iron Buddha Tu has been maimed. Everyone can see that.
This war has entered the final stage.
Jing Guo can already have his hands free.
Qi State must make a decision!
If you decide to withdraw, you must start preparing now. How to complete the withdrawal in a stable and orderly manner while maintaining the gains you have made as much as possible is also a great test of the commander's ability.
"The current news is this."
In the tall Rong Chonglou car, Cao Jie was sitting in the commander's seat, his expression still calm.
Beigong Nantu died in battle. News that shocked the world could not arouse the slightest emotion in his eyes.
He just sat there upright and asked slowly: "If you have any ideas, you might as well tell them."
At this moment, sitting in this small room were Yan Ping, Ruan Yuan, Chong Xuan, Chu Liang, and Li Zhengyan.
Except for Chen Zeqing, who is still leading the army outside Tongyang City, the top brass of the entire middle army are gathered here.
The death of Beigong Nantu once again demonstrated the power of the Central Empire.
Declare to the world that to this day, Jingguo is still the most powerful country in the world. Every move can shake the world.
Let me ask the princes and countries, who dares to ignore it?!
"Military matters are naturally made by the commander-in-chief." Yan Ping said in a gentle voice: "However, the high priest of Shenmian Evangelism is dead. It will take five or seven days at most, or two or three days at least. The battle of Jingmu will come to an end. Where will we go then? , the commander-in-chief still needs to think about it early."
There was also a sigh on Ruan Yuan's excessively young face.
During his trip, he was only responsible for blocking the Xia Kingdom's communication system, using star power to clamp down on long-distance communication rules, and providing True King-level combat power. He did not intend to provide any insights into the military.
But when he suddenly heard about the major turning point in the Jingmu War, he could fully understand its significance.
He has been staying beside Cao Jiu during this period. He knows very well how carefully Cao Jiu has planned for this battle. He knows very well how much the whole country has paid for today.
It was also during this period that he witnessed the courage of too many Daqi soldiers.
The emperor gave Cao Jiu absolute trust, and fierce generals such as Chongxuan Chu Liang also fully supported the commander of the expedition to Xia. Cao Jiu himself was as steady as a mountain at every step.
Everything is going in the right direction.
The Qi army was so powerful that it was almost a foregone conclusion to destroy Xia in one fell swoop. After quickly forcing out Xia's national defense formation, breakthrough progress was also made on the northern and eastern fronts. Cao Jiu also said a few days ago that if nothing unexpected happens, the three
All wars can be ended before the month.
But the accident has happened now...
Who would have thought that the collision between the two hegemonic powers would result so quickly?
As a great master of astrological divination, he seems to be in a trance and has the will of God to trick people.
In this Jingmu War, among the five living true kings who participated in the battle, judging from past performance, Beigong Nantu was undoubtedly the strongest one. But he was the only one who died first.
Although the death of a true king is not uncommon in the war of overlords. But for a man as powerful as Beigong Nantu, who is almost equivalent to the incarnation of Cangtu God on the grassland, his death is really surprising!
The specific process of his death in battle is still unknown.
What kind of results Jingguo will achieve in the future is yet to be seen.
But with the death of Beigong Nantu, Muguo has undoubtedly declared a complete defeat, and the next war will only depend on how it will lose in the end.
"I can only calculate good or bad luck. It's up to you generals to judge whether it's right or wrong." Ruan Yuan said in a declarative tone: "The country's power is entangled, and I have no place to use it."
Cao Jie said nothing.
"I am definitely not rational enough to make a decision now." Li Zhengyan said, "So I reserve my opinion. You can just discuss it. No matter what the final result of the military discussion is, I will accept it."
The war has progressed so far, and the Zhufeng Army is the one with the heaviest casualties among the three nine-soldier brigades.
Outside Tongyang City, the cavalry collided. More than 30,000 wind-chasing warriors died forever.
How could he accept to withdraw from the army now?
However, if we do not consider it from the perspective of war, but make opinions based on the casualties of our soldiers and our own emotions, it will undoubtedly be irresponsible for this war.
Even if his analysis is coherent now, it is difficult for him to say that he is not affected by emotions, so he reserves his opinion.
At such moments, restraint is the demeanor of a famous general.
Everyone has finished speaking.
Chu Liang, who was slightly chubby and seemed gentle and harmless, then said, "How can you retreat now?"
He turned his eyes in a circle and showed his will in no uncertain terms: "This opportunity to destroy Xia is once in a lifetime. If you miss this time, you may not have another chance in this life."
To be continued...
