Chapter eight hundred and nineteen the four holy princes
In June of the third year of Dali, it was originally the grand ceremony of Li Kingdom and Jin Kingdom. King Li Wuxin announced to the world that the whole country would attack the Sui Dynasty, divide it into the southeast, northwest and four directions, and lay siege to Guanzhong in the final battle to unify the world!
In the same year, in early July, the first Fengyun Legion composed purely of literary cultivators appeared.
With the power of the world that shocked the world, he sealed Tongguan in ice, won the championship in one fell swoop, captured the rumored most powerful and mysterious King Yujuluo alive, and surrendered on the spot, which shocked the world.
On the same day, Cheng Yaojin, the Hunshi Hou of Li Kingdom, personally led the Great Demon Imperial Army under his tent, and became famous for his hard work at Xiongguan... Xiaoguan, under heavy rain, captured Xiaoguan by force.
It is said that in the Battle of Xiaoguan, Cheng Yaojin, who was originally known as the "Devil King", became demonic and awakened his demonic nature...
The original 10,000 prefecture-level legions, 100,000-level legions, and a total of 110,000 great demon armies were transformed into "immortal mad demon" legions at the prefecture level and above. Like demon soldiers and demon generals, they came to the world and swept across Xiaoguan.
He powerfully defeated Zhenwu King He Ruobi and defeated the Sui army at Xiaoguan.
How amazing is this?
Forcibly raising the regular army, which was only in the middle and late stages of physical training, to the average strength and Qi refining stage, and each of them was brave and fearless of death, the overall combat power of the Demon Imperial Army increased nearly ten times.
The 110,000 demon army defeated more than a million Sui troops guarding the pass, nearly 90% of them were killed, and finally succeeded in seizing the pass. How glorious is this?
Generally speaking, if the casualties exceed 30%, the morale of the army will be turbulent; if the casualties exceed half, the army will be defeated like a mountain.
Cheng Yaojin led an army with 90% casualties, and finally won the battle?
Such a terrifying change is no less shocking than the emergence of the Fengyun Legion.
Following Li Guo's concubine, Li Xiuning, who led 99% of the women's army who were killed in the battle, to defend Hangu Pass, Li Guo once again rose to fame as a peerless general who shocked the past and present.
The difference is that Li Xiuning himself has unique means to drive away the negative emotions of the army, so that he can keep the Detachment of Women from escaping, defeating, and collapsing. Cheng Yaojin does not have this, and he relies entirely on his own magical nature.
Rumor has it...
Even when Li Wang Wuxin heard the information about the battle of Xiaoguan, he lost his temper and started shouting that soldiers and demons had appeared in the world. With the help of the four holy soldiers, Li Guo would have no worries.
Who is the Soldier Demon?
Naturally, his demonic nature flourished. Cheng Yaojin, who once founded a country and established a dynasty, called himself the Great Demon King. Although this Great Demon King only sat on the throne for a few dozen days.
What are the Four Holy Soldiers?
The soldier god Yu Juluo, the soldier god Li Jing, the soldier ghost Xu Shiji, and the soldier demon Cheng Yaojin!
The soldiers are like chessmen, they are like chessmen, and they are like immortals. They use the soldiers with ease and ease, not hastily or slowly, but as if they are using their arms and fingers.
The God of War, Li Jing, wields troops like a god and handles the overall situation like the palm of his hand. He is the second-generation Taiwei from Li Kingdom and is in charge of the military affairs of the world. He knows everything like the palm of his hand and knows every detail.
Xu Shiji, a soldier ghost, has scheming and calculating skills, and is as smart as a ghost. The army he leads has tactics like ghosts, making it difficult for people to guard against him.
The magic weapon Cheng Yaojin, fighting like a demon king, and controlling the army like a madman, can turn the army he leads into demon soldiers, and display a combat power that is eye-popping!
For this reason, it is said that King Li Wuxin personally consecrated the four holy soldiers as "holy princes". Their status was transcendent and they could be said to be the heads of the princes.
Naturally, Li Kingdom does not have the official position of "Holy Marquis". This is the greatest recognition and admiration of the Four Holy Soldiers from King Li and the people of the world. However, the achievements of the Four Holy Soldiers to Li Kingdom are not enough to grant him the title of Duke or King.
…
In mid-July, the Western San Pass and the Southern Wuguan of the four passes in Guanzhong were still controlled by the Sui army, and the Li army could not attack them for a long time.
However, the Li Army on the East Route and the Li Army on the North Route marched straight in and attacked the capital of the Sui Empire... The western capital of Changxing did not madly attack and attack the cities and towns in Guanzhong, but ignored them.
At the end of July, the Lijun on the East Route and the Lijun on the North Route arrived at the gates of the Western Capital City, and a steady stream of troops poured into Guanzhong from Tongguan and Xiaoguan...
However, what puzzled the people of the world and the Sui Empire was that after the Li army entered the pass, they did not launch many wars, and even turned a blind eye to the various cities in the pass. They just kept traveling through the official roads, prohibiting merchant trade, material transportation, etc.
.
Even if the Li army does not attack the city, there are still many forces and cities within the pass that have openly or secretly surrendered to the Li army. Nearly one third of them have changed their flags and hoisted the Li national flag!
Conquer the enemy's army without fighting.
This is Li Guo’s current tactics.
As long as the four passes in Guanzhong are conquered and the gap is broken to allow the Li army to pour into Guanzhong, no more war will be launched to show the Li army's benevolence and righteousness and Qiu Mao's non-infringement.
However, this is more torturous than a bloody battle.
Unless they surrender and leave the country, all forces are not allowed to leave easily, and the transportation of supplies is strictly prohibited. This is enough!
To put it simply, except for the various cities, all areas outside the city have become the territory of the Lijun.
How will the various cities, armies, forces, etc. in the pass survive?
Originally, Guanzhong's territory was large enough to be barely self-sufficient, but now it can't even get out of the city. How long can it survive by relying on stored grains? What's more, most of the stored grains had been taken away by the Sui army when the Sui Empire was preparing for a food shortage in Liguo.
They have gathered in the Western Capital, and there are not many food reserves left for various cities and places!
Before the Li army conquered the Sui Empire, they used the "isolation" method to besiege the eastern capital Luoyang and forcibly forced Tang to surrender.
Now that the food shortage problem in Liguo has been solved, there is no rush. On the surface, there is enough time, energy, and foundation to spend it with cities all over Guanzhong, including Xidu, to see who can't hold on first!
It is not difficult to imagine that if the Li army really wanted to attack all the cities in Guanzhong except Xidu, they could do so.
However, Li Jun deliberately refused to fight, which would be even more torturous. He would defeat Guanzhong physically, mentally, and spiritually!
Outside the Western Capital City, there is the Lijun military camp.
Li Wang Wuxin and Xinwuwei had already arrived outside the Western Capital City, but they had set up camp and had no intention of attacking. Instead, they were like tigers that chose to devour anyone at any time, glaring at them with eager eyes, making people in the Western Capital City panic.
On this day, Wu Xin was staying in the military tent, inspecting and handling all matters in Liguo, especially the wars in various places in the pass.
"Report... to report to my king, Yang Lin, the patron king of the Sui Dynasty, asking to see my king!"
A Xinwu imperial guard came in and reported.
"Huh?! Quickly pass..."
Wu Xin stood up and responded, then quickly added: "Wait a minute, let's go alone to greet him!"
The arrival of the representatives of the Sui Empire was both expected and unexpected by Wu Xin.
With the current situation, everyone knows that the Sui Empire has no hope, and the only choice is to surrender or perish.
The only thing that surprised Wu Xin was that it was the patron king Yang Lin who came in person!
Both publicly and privately, Wu Xin felt that he should welcome him in person. Anyway, the general trend had been established, and it would be beneficial and harmless to welcome him in person.
"I have met the prince and reunited after a long separation. What a blessing in life!"
Wu Xin only waited for a moment at the entrance of the military tent, and dozens of Xinwu guards came, surrounded by Yang Lin and the two great monks. There were only three of them.
Before Yang Lin could say anything, Wu Xin took the lead in greeting him warmly and humbly.
At this time, Yang Lin was still tall and straight, seemingly full of energy and getting stronger with age. However, those with good eyesight could easily see Yang Lin's tired mentality and feeble aging. Even his gray hair seemed to be whiter.
