Chapter 135 Destroy the dry and pull the rotten world
To counterattack and surround the 300,000 defeated Yuan soldiers with 200,000 troops, including nearly 80,000 cavalry, only a perverted god general like Ye Chen could do it.
Today, he is regarded as the God of War after the First World War in Chang'an. Invulnerable and indestructible, he is like a god in the eyes of ordinary people. He is invincible and invincible. He led an army of nearly 200,000 to surround the Xiangyang camp of the Yuan people.
After he killed Boyan, the commander of the Yuan people, and destroyed the Yuan people's command center in one fell swoop, the remaining Yuan people were no match for them even if they were more numerous.
He commanded the troops to break up the Yuan people and besiege them in three towns in Wuhan along the Yangtze River, cut off their retreat, and surrendered 170,000 Han people among them.
The Yuan people's army generally consists of several parts, namely the Mongols in the headquarters, the various Hu people in the Western Regions, and the surrendered Han people. For Ye Chen, the Mongols and the Hu people from all over the Western Regions are foreigners and cannot be trusted.
Only the Han who surrendered were worthy of surrendering.
The behavior of the army in this era has always been decided by the generals. It is also the generals who really want to surrender to the Yuan people. The soldiers follow the generals and go wherever they go. There is no room for choice. As long as the surrendered generals are controlled and reorganized, nothing will happen to the surrendered troops.
Too big a problem.
But Ye Chen did it more thoroughly. Intermediate-level officers, that is, mid-level officers above the Thousand-Man Corps, were all beheaded. Only low-level officers were left and were scattered and reorganized to minimize the influence of the past.
170,000 Han people surrendered, and the remaining nearly 150,000 Yuan people and Hu people had only one fate, and that was to be exterminated.
He suppressed them in a narrow area on the edge of the Yangtze River to limit the power of the Mongolian cavalry, and then advanced layer by layer, while he weaved in and out. Once he saw a trend of resistance, he personally took action to forcefully penetrate the Chinese army and kill the commander.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to organize effective resistance.
This massacre lasted for half a month. Heads were rolling along the Yangtze River, corpses were everywhere, and a large number of corpses were washed into the river and floated in layers, so that most of the river was blocked by floating corpses.
After the battle, Ye Chen personally paid homage to Guo Jing and his wife, as well as the soldiers and civilians who died in Xiangyang City, with Boyan's head on the edge of the Yangtze River where the battle took place, in order to gain the support of the people.
The Battle of Xiangyang ended and the entire Yuan army was wiped out. The Yuan army located in the Sichuan-Shu Basin fled to the desert and detoured back to the Mobei grassland. Ye Chen unified the south of the Yellow River and the north of the Yangtze River. It can be said that he has unified the Central Plains. If
If the Southern Song Dynasty court was still there, he could already be king.
But the problem is not big. The Southern Song Dynasty has exhausted all its energy and was forced to the southeast corner by Xuanji. Now it is lingering. Both he and Xuanji can be destroyed easily, but they will be destroyed one day.
"We have at most three battles left. If we win, we can take over the world!"
In the Lord's Mansion of Kaifeng City, Ye Chen sat high on the throne, surrounded by a group of staff and subordinates. He pointed to the map spread out in front of him and said.
There are several colors on the map, including red representing the Central Plains, yellow representing the mysterious opportunity south of the Yangtze River, green representing the Southern Song Dynasty, and blue representing Mongolia in the north. There were several big arrows drawn on it, and he pointed in the direction.
Down arrow says:
"I want you to prepare for the southern expedition in the second half of the year before the beginning of autumn, and send 200,000 troops directly to Changsha!"
Half a year later, on a morning when the cold wind blew and heavy fog shrouded the river, the Wuhan camp crossed the Yangtze River with thousands of sails, and Ye Chen officially led his army to march south.
The sudden crossing of the Yangtze River was completely beyond the expectations of Xuanzangshui Village on the other side of the Yangtze River. By the time they reacted and made preparations, the army had already crossed more than half of the river. Ye Chen, on the other hand, crossed the Yangtze River on the waves and rushed into the Xuanzangshui Village alone.
, blocking the fleet in the Xuanzai Water Stronghold in the port until the fleet rushed into the water stronghold.
Nowadays, his strength has not improved, but the internal energy of his Nine Yangs has become stronger and stronger with the passage of time. The crossbow arrows fired from the arrow tower in the water village cannot even penetrate his body protection skills, let alone his indestructible body.
For Ye Chen, his current level of cultivation is enough. There is no need to spend a lot of potential points on the Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu, which is destined to be difficult to improve. It's not that he doesn't have enough potential points, he has a lot of them, but he just doesn't need them.
During the Battle of Xiangyang half a year ago, he charged into battle several times and beheaded countless people, especially the crazy killing scene when he blocked Yuan Ren by the river. He killed Yuan Ren for half a month, and only the Yuan Ren died in his hands.
There are more than 20,000 cavalry, and after one battle, they have accumulated more than 20,000 potential points.
These Yuanren cavalry are the elite cavalry that Mongolia relies on to dominate the world. Each of them is an elite soldier who has fought in hundreds of battles. As long as they kill, they can gain potential points.
Coupled with the potential points accumulated during this period, he has now accumulated more than 23,000 potential points, which are temporarily unused and reserved for emergency use.
As he broke through the thick gate of the water stronghold and forced his way into the stronghold, the water stronghold was thrown into chaos. When the subsequent army invaded the water stronghold, the overall situation was decided.
Five days later, the follow-up army entered the water village to establish a stronghold. Ye Chen officially led the army south along the Xiangjiang River in Dongting, combining water and land to attack Changsha.
After two days of fierce fighting, the city of Changsha changed hands. Most of the senior officials of Xuanji were killed in the battle. The remaining ones were unwilling to retreat to the south. He followed and chased them to the South China Sea. They were surrounded and annihilated under the walls of Guangzhou, and the entire army was wiped out.
Next, Ye Chen swept across the south of the Yangtze River with a devastating attitude. In less than a month, he conquered Nanchang, Jiujiang, and reached the gates of Jinling City.
As early as after the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Southern Song Dynasty had already moved its capital many times, from Yingtianfu to Lin'an, and then to Jinling. Not long ago, the Xuanzhai Incident happened, and the capital was moved south to Quanzhou again. If Guangzhou had not been occupied by Xuanzhai, it would have been moved to Guangzhou.
go.
Now Jinling City has gathered the last strength of the Southern Song Dynasty, led by Yang Xing, a descendant of Tianbo Mansion, who has gathered an army of 120,000 to defend Jinling City.
Yang Xing is a descendant of the Yang family generals in Tianbo Prefecture and the last famous general in the Southern Song Dynasty. He had blocked Xuanji's many attacks before, and his ability to command troops was outstanding.
The army surrounded Jinling City, but before he could give the order to attack the city, the city gate opened wide and a man came out of the city.
"Why are you here?"
Ye Chen was very surprised when he saw Yulong walking out of the city, wearing silver armor and having an exquisite figure.
Ever since the four of them decided to go against Xuanzhai and prepared separately, Hongfei had come to join him early. The other gray-haired man had been confirmed to have been killed by the master of Xuanzhai, and her whereabouts had been unknown. He thought that she had also been sent by Xuanzhui.
He was killed and never expected to see him again here.
"Why can't I be here?"
Yulong stroked the hair on his forehead and said:
"My surname is Yang!"
"Um!"
Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, reacted instantly, and asked in surprise:
"Are you from the Yang family in Tianbo Mansion?"
She nodded:
"Yang Xing is my father!"
"oh!"
He whistled and said:
"Then you came here..."
She blinked her eyes slightly and said:
"I have been preparing for this for so long and I am giving you a big gift. Will you accept it?"
Ye Chen was overjoyed:
"Of course I accept."
Of course he accepted it. Yulong's great gift was that Jinling City and its 120,000 troops surrendered to him without using a single soldier, sword or shot.
The Yang family in Tianbo Prefecture is a legendary family. The legend of the female generals of the Yang family is very popular. The loyalty of the Yang family is also the most talked about. Their surrender represents the disappearance of the last trace of vitality in the Southern Song Dynasty.
The world's impression of the Yang family has always been that of foolish loyalty, which was indeed the case for a certain period of time, but as generations of the Yang family died in battles, and the Southern Song Dynasty court's cowardice and incompetence continued to let them down, with Ye Chen's strong rise, several
Defeating the Yuan people and recovering the Central Plains, it is completely normal for them to surrender.
After receiving the last bit of power from Jinling and the Southern Song Dynasty, Ye Chen has unified the world from a general perspective.
