Chapter 88 Lihun Mountain, Defeat

Wanxiang used the [Twelve Yuan Chen Dharma Pillar] to break through the air and wipe out the main army camp of 'Lihun Mountain'.

Under its huge energy explosion, a circle of smoke and dust several feet high quickly burst out. At the same time, the ground for hundreds of miles nearby shook violently, and cracks appeared on the ground.

The army of the 'Lihun Mountain' waiting in formation was preparing to fight against the attack of the army of the 'Suzaku Kingdom', when they suddenly heard an earth-shattering loud noise coming from behind.

Almost half of the people couldn't help but look back and saw smoke and dust several feet high sweeping in like rolling dark clouds.

Everyone formed a formation under the command of their respective generals to resist the impact of smoke and dust.

After the smoke and dust dissipated, everyone looked back and saw that there was nothing except a big pit where the camp was.

Both the camp commander and the mysterious God-given ones disappeared completely.

There was a brief stagnation on the huge battlefield, and countless soldiers of the "Lihun Mountain" looked in despair at the place where the camp of the commander Da Zhen should have stood.

As a golden red light flew out from the destroyed camp, the [Twelve Yuan Chen Dharma Pillar] flew back to Wanxiang's hands in full view of everyone.

Wanxiang's right hand holds the Dharma pillar high and points forward.

"rush!"

Its voice was not loud, but it spread throughout every corner of the battlefield.

Following his order, the third forward battalion of the 'Suzaku Kingdom' launched an attack with all its strength.

At the same time, an endless stream of soldiers and horses emerged from the "Beigong City" like a sea tide, most of them were soldiers and horses from the East Tenth Battalion, and some were Suzaku citizens who dreamed of becoming a nobility.

Without the command of the coach, the army of "Lihun Mountain" is even more difficult to resist the attack of the army of "Suzaku Kingdom".

Everything looks like a giant holding a hammer and chisel.

Hammer down, chisel in, formation disperse!

Through every step!

With just a few dozen attacks, many military formations in the "Lihun Mountain" were destroyed.

No matter how powerful the defense formation formed by the army of "Lihun Mountain" is, in front of everything that has the blessing of "Joint Forces", it will collapse like a castle on the beach.

Wanxiang once again used his strength and courage to explain to everyone how the name "Valkyrie" came about.

At that time, Zhao He wanted to rush into the battle formation like Wanxiang, but unfortunately, even the same tactics depended on who would use them.

The formation was broken again and again, and the millions of "Lihun Mountain" troops were completely divided.

Looking down from the sky, the army of "Lihun Mountain" at this time is like a herd of sheep being divided and driven away by wolves. They don't know what is going on and rush around randomly. As long as they show a little cohesion, they will be targeted immediately.

ground defeated.

All phenomena triggered the special power of the projection of the 'Fire Elemental Realm', urging the 'Nanming Lihuo' to rise into the air and explode.

Groups of 'Nanming Lihuo' exploded like fireworks over the battlefield and filled the sky with sparks.

When these sparks activate the vitality of heaven and earth, fire rain falls from the sky.

Under the control of all phenomena, this extremely terrifying fire rain covered the "Lihun Mountain" army layer by layer. Countless black-armored soldiers were ignited by the flames and let out heart-piercing screams.

Watching the comrades beside them turn into wailing burning men running away, a small number of soldiers retreated at first.

Soon, a large-scale retreat broke out, and black-armored soldiers all over the mountains and plains scrambled to escape from the battlefield.

No matter how loudly the generals yelled, they could not make any soldier turn around and fight again.

The army of "Lihun Mountain" finally collapsed.

...

Wanxiang's "Lihuo Golden Eye" directly killed Aqiluo and a group of his kind, which gave a great shock to the hearts of many outsiders on [Qi Banner].

From the official start of the "War between Dao and Demons" in the 201st year of the lunar calendar, to the autumn of the 354th year of the lunar calendar, for more than 150 years, no practitioner or "celestial demon" has ever been killed by the natives of this world.

In their view, the only people who can cause harm to them are the hostile camp who are also outsiders.

It was as if I was standing outside the crowd happily watching others fight, but unexpectedly an ax flew out and killed me.

Some of the practitioners were secretly palpitating. Most of the forces they supported were conquered by Wanxiang's troops. They had other thoughts when they were defeated. Thinking about it now, they were really lucky.

In addition to being surprised by Wanxiang's ability to kill Aqiluo and other demons, another thing that shocked everyone was Wanxiang's strength.

The ‘Heavenly Demon’ is powerful, otherwise it would not frighten the heavens and the world.

But nearly a hundred demons were actually stared to death by Wanxiang, which was a bit scary.

To be honest, the strength of Aqiluo alone is enough to crush most practitioners in [Qi Banner].

Once compared like this, doesn't it mean that if I and others face everything, they will be powerless to fight back.

What is even more difficult for many practitioners to accept is that the woman in front of them is just a chess piece thrown by Zhenjun Ruyi.

The practitioners in [Qi Banner] were no longer in the mood to comment on the war, and each one became taciturn.

In fact, even Zhang Ke was a little frightened at this moment. Even if he wanted to kill dozens of demons in an instant, it would not be easy.

After some deliberation, Zhang Ke believed that the reason why Wanxiang was able to explode with such a powerful force at this moment was due to great chance.

First of all, Vientiane has the help of 500,000 soldiers from the "Suzaku Camp" who have also awakened the "Nanming Lihuo".

Secondly, the projection of the 'Fire Elemental Realm' blessed his fire-type magical powers.

Third, the aristocratic system promulgated after Wanxiang became the king of the "Suzaku Kingdom" enabled countless citizens to join the army in the war.

Don't underestimate these ordinary people, they are like snowflakes in an avalanche. When their number becomes weight, they gain great power.

The final key is the method of ‘joining forces and gathering strength’.

The method of "joining forces and gathering strength" was originally derived by Zhang Ke to fight against immortal cultivators.

Because the strength of the immortal cultivators should be stronger than those of the 'Azure Realm', his idea is to fight against the immortal cultivators by integrating collective power.

However, the method of ‘joining forces and gathering strength’ is also flawed.

If you are a lieutenant, you can only unite a hundred soldiers and horses. If you are a school officer, you can unite the strength of a thousand people.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But above the school officer, it cannot be expanded.

If you want to "join forces and gather strength", you also need to cooperate. This refers not only to the actions, but also to the minds of the soldiers.

In a military formation of more than a thousand people, it is almost impossible to hope that everyone will be on the same page.

But everything is different. She has the unique identity of a monarch. All citizens of the "Suzaku Kingdom" will instinctively trust her and support her, which also results in the "general trend" she gathers being almost unrestricted.

This is why Wanxiang can erupt with power that astonishes Zhang Kedu on the battlefield.

At this moment, I saw the army of the ‘Suzaku Kingdom’ sweeping across all directions like a red torrent.

Many 'Devils' who were banned on the other side borrowed the power of [Demons Concentric Gong] to send warnings to Jiuluo.

At this moment, Jiuluo, who was presiding over the war on the western front, finally understood why there was heavy fog in the "Zengkonghai" after receiving messages from many of his compatriots.

This sea area that spreads for thousands of miles is clearly trying to cut off the escape route of the ‘Wanling Tribe’!

However, the war has reached this point. Once it withdraws to the Far West, with the power of the 'Suzaku Kingdom', how long can the 'Wanling Tribe' persist in the Far West?

What's more, even if you want to withdraw, it's not that easy.

In the final analysis, Jiuluo and other demons can only secretly control the 'Wanling Tribe'. The people who are really in charge of the 'Wanling Tribe' are the clan leaders of the thirteen major tribes.

It is easy to persuade some clan leaders to evacuate, but it is impossible to get all thirteen clan leaders to agree to retreat.

On the Western Front battlefield, because Huo Wugou presided over the battle, the Wanling Tribe suffered extremely heavy casualties through numerous defense lines.

The 14 million main force has suffered nearly 4 million casualties in just thirteen years.

It can be said that Huo Wugou has firmly captured the hatred of the ‘Wanling Tribe’ army.

Sure enough, when Jiuluo organized the thirteen major tribal leaders of the Wanling Tribe and hundreds of mid-level tribal leaders to discuss the withdrawal of troops, they immediately encountered strong opposition from the leaders of each tribe.

In addition to the unforgettable hatred, the tribal leaders also have their own concerns.

Since the 'Wanling Tribe' invaded the 'Suzaku Kingdom', they slaughtered cities and villages along the way, killing countless people.

In the past thirteen years, more than 10 million citizens of the "Suzaku Kingdom" have been made into dry food and fed into the bellies of the tribal people.

This is also an irresolvable hatred for the 'Suzaku Kingdom'.

When attacking, you can still control the situation, but once you retreat, you will undoubtedly fall into passivity.

Now that the tribe is deep into the hinterland of the 'Suzaku Kingdom', it is not easy to retreat calmly.

After a heated debate, the leaders of the thirteen major tribes of the Wanling Tribe decided to hold on for a while longer.

If the defense on the western front can be broken, the 'Suzaku Kingdom' will become the tribe's back garden. Even if the enemy army attacks, the tribe will be able to move around in this vast land.

This is a hundred times better than being flanked by two armies of the 'Suzaku Kingdom' during a hasty retreat.

Therefore, even though they knew through Jiuluo's mouth that the army of Lihun Mountain on the northern front had been defeated, the leaders of the major tribes of the Wanling Tribe still decided to fight again.

According to his calculations, the army at Lihun Mountain on the northern front was only defeated rather than wiped out.

This means that if the 'Suzaku Kingdom' does not want the 'Lihun Mountain' army to be reintegrated, it must first wipe out at least 70% of these defeated 'Lihun Mountain' armies.

Pursuing millions of fleeing soldiers across such a vast land is by no means a task that can be completed in a short time.

Therefore, the ‘Wanling Tribe’ still has time to capture the western defense line.

The reason why the tribe leaders were so confident was because they had realized that the army led by Huo Wugou was at the end of its rope.

Not to mention the strong armor, even the weapons in their hands were mostly incomplete, and the bow and arrow shooting that frightened them the most had not appeared on the battlefield many times.

A few days ago, I cut open the stomach of a soldier from the 'Suzaku Kingdom' and found that the food in his belly was mixed with a large number of leaves.

What this means, no one knows better than them.

Therefore, many tribal leaders were unwilling to fall short and insisted on giving it a try in the end.

When the determination was made, the 'Wanling Tribe' immediately organized soldiers and horses to attack the city controlled by Huo Wugou day and night.

This wave of offensive was launched suddenly and violently.

If it weren't for Huo Wugou's special ability, he might not have been able to withstand this sudden attack.

Especially due to the lack of resources in the army, the sergeants relied entirely on their flesh and blood and the unity of the people to finally withstand this wave of offensive.

In fact, the reason why the 'Suzaku Kingdom' was able to withstand this wave of offensive was because of the 'Wanling Tribe'.

No one wants to be eaten after death, so everyone tried their best to resist the attack. This may be something the 'Wanling Tribe' never expected.

This round of offensive lasted for seven days. On the seventh day, when the attack of the Wanling Tribe slowed down a bit, Huo Wugu set fire to the city under his control.

Then the entire army quickly retreated to the next city to continue organizing defenses.

In the following months, whenever the war went unfavorably, Huo Wugou took the initiative to retreat, always maintaining a relatively complete combat strength.

At the same time, supplies from the rear and countless citizens arrived on the battlefield bit by bit, greatly alleviating Huo Wugou's pressure.

This also caused the "Wanling Tribe" army to enter a dilemma. The attack could not destroy the main force of the enemy, but it was unwilling to retreat.

In the midst of the endless debate, the army of the 'Wanling Tribe' fell deeper and deeper into the hinterland of the 'Suzaku Kingdom'.

...

The battlefield on the northern front was exactly as the senior officials of the ‘Wanling Tribe’ expected.

Vientiane really did not dare to let the millions of defeated soldiers of the "Lihun Mountain" escape and condense again.

But at this time, she already had enough soldiers and horses at her disposal.

In addition to the Dong Shiying and the six million soldiers from the 'Luo Kingdom', there are also a large number of Chinese people who have dreams of being aristocrats.

Vientiane dispersed more than 10 million regular soldiers into countless teams of hundreds and thousands, and spread them out like a net.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! And the countless ordinary citizens are left to search for traces of the defeated army on the "Lihun Mountain" on their own.

To this end, Vientiane specially promulgated military merit laws.

Specific regulations have been set up in various aspects such as tracking, chasing the enemy, gathering information, blocking, etc.

‘The head of a defeated army can be exchanged for a little merit.

A piece of information about hundreds of defeated troops can earn ten points of merit.

Stopping a defeated army of thousands of people and causing them to be wiped out by the main army of the country can earn 100 points of merit.

...'

There are more than 40 such laws and regulations.

The lowest level of baron only requires one thousand points of merit to achieve it.

According to these laws, every citizen who aspires to make achievements clearly feels that the title of military nobility is beckoning to him.

The big carrot of military aristocracy is hung on the neck of every citizen in this way.

At the same time, in order to ensure that its own people would not take action against their own people because of competing for merits, Vientiane issued a special "fratricidal" killing order.

Anyone who dares to attack the people of this country, no matter who the offender is, will have their property confiscated and their three generations of immediate family members will be executed!

This instruction is in eye-catching red, which is particularly eye-catching among the complete regulations.

Given Wanxiang's reputation and status, no one thought she was just talking.

As a result, some people with ulterior motives couldn't help but give up some ideas.

Of course, there are always people who think that as long as they do things secretly, they will not be noticed.

And those who took action were all later punished in public.

As Vientiane gave orders, countless people carried sounding arrows, and fireworks signals flooded in all directions like a tide.

In the initial pursuit, everyone had little experience, and a large number of citizens died in the battle with the defeated army at "Lihun Mountain".

But their deaths are not without value. When arrows sound and countless fireworks explode in the sky, the regular army of the "Suzaku Kingdom" will attack as quickly as possible.

In just seven days, nearly 600,000 of the defeated troops of "Lihun Mountain" were killed on the spot.

As time goes by, citizens have become wiser.

They no longer expect to use their own strength to wipe out the defeated army of "Lihun Mountain", but are more interested in gathering intelligence and tracking down the enemy.

They even joined forces with people from all over the country, and the entire northern territory was full of people from the kingdom.

The appearance of the people from the "Lihun Mountain" tribe is very different from the people from the "Suzaku Kingdom", so they can be easily distinguished.

In addition, whether these people are walking or replenishing food, treatment of injuries will leave traces.

Therefore, people will soon notice the traces, and once they notice the traces of the defeated army in the "Lihun Mountain", countless people immediately report to the kingdom's pursuit troops.

In this way, the citizens became the eyes of the kingdom's pursuit troops. They were responsible for finding the enemy, while the kingdom's soldiers waited for work and followed the news to fight.

More than 10 million citizens participated in this search, plus more than 10 million of the kingdom's regular troops.

In just half a year, nearly 80% of the remaining 7 million-strong "Lihun Mountain" army was wiped out.

'Lihun Mountain' initially only sent 6 million soldiers. Later, when the three major forces coordinated their attack, nearly 5 million more soldiers were dispatched from the north.

After a series of battles, when it was defeated by Wanxiang, there were still nearly seven million in number.

half year later.

Wanxiang felt that the remaining defeated army of more than one million people in Lihun Mountain could no longer pose a threat to the northern front, so she integrated the more than nine million regular troops in her hands.

Although the defeated army encircled and suppressed the "Lihun Mountain" achieved great results, the kingdom itself also lost nearly two million soldiers.

After some integration, Wan Xiang led the reorganized East Tenth Battalion to turn west and penetrate directly into the Western Front battlefield.

Half of the remaining four million people were deployed on the northern fronts. They wanted to re-establish a new line of defense to prevent the "Lihun Mountain" from sending troops to attack the border again. At the same time, they also vigorously organized the people to return to normal life.

The other half of the people continued to surround and suppress the defeated troops in the "Lihun Mountain".

When Wanxiang led the army to leave the northern front, countless citizens followed the king's chariot again.

The northern front can no longer obtain enough merits. Only by following the throne can one quickly become a military noble.

One after another, red torrents marched majestically westward along the northern foothills.
