In the autumn of the fourth year of Wuxing, Duke Zhennan led an army of 100,000 to Yumen Pass. With the cooperation of the Yumen Pass defenders, he defeated 500,000 grassland coalition troops.
The news spread back to Heluo, Guanzhong, and immediately caused a sensation among the people.
This was a rare victory. With less than 200,000 troops, the Wu army defeated the grassland coalition army of 500,000 troops, and chased and captured 100,000 soldiers for hundreds of miles. It can be said to be an unprecedented victory.
It was only then that the cloud of suspicion hanging over Dongdu City dissipated.
Soon, Emperor Wu issued a decree and commended him, and sent a team to the front line to express condolences. The number of people was a bit large, but it did not attract any special attention from outsiders.
No one knows that when Emperor Wu conquered the world, the heroes who defeated the captives quietly arrived at the front line and made preparations to leave the Western Regions.
Now that Emperor Wu's words have been fulfilled and the Wu army defeated the 500,000-strong grassland coalition, these frustrated heroes will naturally have no other ideas. It would be great to have the opportunity to seal a vassal and establish a country.
Just as Lei Hu said, they have already tasted the taste of power, and naturally they will not be willing to submit to others easily.
In the history series of the original work, all the heroes who surrendered to Li Tang were either killed by Li Tang looking for an opportunity, or they took the opportunity to rebel and died. Very few of them had a good death.
Lei Hu's behavior was naturally much more generous than Li Tang's.
Whether it was a reckless hero like Du Fuwei, a wealthy family leader like Li Yuan, or a high-ranking official like Wang Shichong, they were all heroes who experienced the troubled times of the late Sui Dynasty.
According to Lei Hu, it would be a waste to kill them directly. It is better to let them perform on their own and go to the outside world to toss.
With the support of the entire Central Plains, and with the abilities of these heroes, it is easy to establish a firm foothold in the Western Regions and become a hero, temporarily guarding the border for Wu.
Once Dawu completes its internal integration and accumulates more resources, it will have the opportunity to expand to further geographical areas.
Lu Miaozi is currently studying steam locomotives. Once the results are achieved, there will be no need to worry about distance.
When the time comes for trains to be laid to the Western Regions, the Western Regions are not far away from being included in the territory of Wu.
Of course, this is something that takes a long time to accomplish. Fortunately, Lei Hu is not very old and is a top expert whose life span has reached the limit of the human body. He can live to be about two hundred years old.
Such a long time is enough for him to complete most of the majestic hegemony in his heart.
It's too early to say this at the moment. Let's send a group of frustrated heroes away first. Without them struggling in the Central Plains, the Central Plains region will be much more stable.
"If Zhu Jie hadn't been so disgusting and was a complete lunatic who took pleasure in cannibalism, I would have really wanted to send him to the Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu to cause great harm to him!"
When he talked about the creation of a vassal state and the founding of a country to his close confidants, Lei Hu's face was full of malice.
Speaking of this man-eating demon king, there is a nickname called King Garuda. He is an authentic Buddhist. In the chaotic world at the end of the Sui Dynasty, he was very crazy. He and his cannibal army of more than 100,000 people were killed.
All of them have become death row prisoners, and what awaits them will be endless labor until they die of exhaustion.
For this guy, Lei Hu also called several leaders of the southern Buddhist sect and reprimanded them severely in front of the civil and military officials. He was quite dissatisfied with the methods of certain branches of the Buddhist sect.
No, not long after the frustrated heroes left, Lei Hu summoned the four holy monks of Buddhism and asked them to send unstable elements within Buddhism to go out with them to harm the people in the outside world. The temples in the Central Plains were too small to support their random behavior.
toss.
Not to mention that if Buddhism wants to flourish, it is indispensable for the strong support of Emperor Wu Leihu. Even the four great saintly monks did not dare to neglect the Nine Buddhism matters.
In the next few years, in accordance with Lei Hu's request, the Central Plains Buddhist Sect sent out a steady stream of less than honest monks to the Western Regions and grasslands to preach and preach, allowing them to cause harm to those in the outer regions.
In the spring of the fifth year of Wuxing, Emperor Wu sent another 300,000 troops out of the fortress to directly destroy the Turks whose strength was greatly weakened. The remaining troops fled to the west of the Western Regions in embarrassment and were no longer able to pose a threat to the Central Plains.
During this period, Dawu Town Nan Gong Tiandao Song Que, Shuanglong Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, two generals, and Taoist disciple Ning Daoqi jointly defeated the Turkic warrior Bixuan, and secretly sent the seriously injured prisoners to the Eastern Capital.
Lei Hu was very interested in taking action himself and found out the information about the desert temple from Bi Xuan's mouth, and then directly killed the dignified Turkic warrior without giving him any chance to make a comeback.
Now Lei Hu's martial arts has reached the late stage of the realm of heaven and man. At some point, he can even reach the peak of the realm of heaven and man, and he can clearly feel the existence of world barriers.
To be honest, when Lei Hu ascended the throne as the Emperor of Wu, when he prayed to heaven, his spirit suddenly received some mysterious blessing, and he instantly escaped from the body without any hindrance, as if he was integrated with some rules of this world, and his mind and spirit
It spread to the entire Central Plains in an instant.
But wherever Jiang Dongjun can control, his mind can follow some special channel in the dark and directly sense it clearly.
This was incredible. At that moment, his mind could be said to be connected to the fate of the Central Plains, and he could even faintly sense what was happening thousands of miles away in the Central Plains.
Obviously, his spiritual realm has reached a new level.
At the same time, certain mysteries in the "Huangting Neijing Jing" circulated in my heart. The moment I ascended the throne and prayed to heaven, my soul was so blessed that I used the energy of qi and blood to open up all the acupoints involved in the internal organs and yin and yang meridians in one breath.
some mysterious means.
For example, when running the "Secret of Immortality", he can use the yin and yang energy of the five elements in his body to communicate with the same type of heaven and earth energy in the outside world, and exert some magical means.
If we really want to be more fantasy-like, Thunder Tiger at this time possesses some of the legendary magical powers, but they are just severely weaker versions.
His powerful spiritual power allowed him to even mobilize certain mysterious forces within several miles around him when he entered the realm of unity between man and nature. In short, Lei Hu's strength had reached an incredible level at this time.
When he was in the state of unity between man and nature, he could faintly sense several incredibly powerful aura fluctuations in several areas of the Central Plains, and his strength was not inferior to his at all.
Because of the special induction, it was obvious that the other party did not notice his existence, and Lei Hu had no intention of actively contacting him, but he knew very well that one of them must be the Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian who had lived for more than two hundred years.
But so what, although the aura of the Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian is very strong, Thunder Tiger is not a vegetarian either. If they fight against him, they can at least give him a 50-50 fight.
As time passed, because his spiritual realm was greatly improved, Lei Hu found that he could absorb part of the five elements of yin and yang energy in the air, and flowed directly into his body along with the heavenly spirit, improving and even improving Lei Hu all the time.
Tiger's physical fitness.
At this time, he only needs enough time for his body to be promoted under the nourishment of the vitality of heaven and earth, and even reach the extraordinary state. It is no problem to shatter the void with his own strength.
It's just that Lei Hu didn't break the void rashly. He still had a lot of things to do. He didn't even have a good experience of other parts of the yellow martial arts world. He just took advantage of his almost invincible strength to bring this world to the world.
Explore it again.
The Central Plains has a method of cultivating Qi that originated from ancient Qi practitioners, and India has a method of cultivating three channels and seven wheels. What about Persia and Egypt, which were also the birthplaces of civilization? What special methods did the European Vatican have at this time?
Lei Hu has such strength and the confidence to experience it, so naturally he will not miss it easily.
The essence of knowledge in a world will be of great help to Lei Hu's improvement in strength and future progress. No matter how wonderful the prospects after Shattered Void are, he plans to take a good look at the world of Double Dragons in the Tang Dynasty.
Since the enthronement ceremony, Lei Hu has been keenly aware that his mind seems to be connected with the fate of the country of Wu, and he can even vaguely sense some general situations under his rule.
This method is really amazing, it reminds Lei Hu of the method of cultivating immortality "Xuanwu Zhen Gong" that he got in the world of Red Mansions!
He had his own plans in mind. He didn't know whether he would go to a higher level world after being broken, or another world he was familiar with, so he had to prepare in advance.
Anyway, it is up to him to decide when to Shatter the Void. In addition, he still has many ideas to test in this world, so he decided not to rush to Shatter the Void. Instead, he actually collects enough resources in this world to turn them into materials for his own progress.
.
To put it bluntly, he is searching for martial arts secrets and all related knowledge as a foundation for his own progress. He plans to spend a hundred years doing this well.
There are many mysterious places in this world, such as the desert temple that allows Wu Zun Bi Xuan to greatly increase his strength and be promoted to a grandmaster in one breath, and the war temple that is mysterious and unlike anything in this world. Lei Hu plans to spend his time
and energy to explore and ponder./
Lei Hu has a very grand plan in his heart, but he has no intention of wasting it with a bunch of frustrated heroes, nor does he have the heart to pay attention to some of the bad things in the Central Plains. When Li Yuan and other heroes have established a foothold in the Western Regions and even established a country, he will not listen to anyone in the future.
If they exist, they can be sent directly to the Western Regions. Lei Hu has no intention of messing around with them.
In the fifth year of Wuxing's reign, the Wu army defeated the grassland coalition forces and chased them thousands of miles north, wiping out the previously powerful Turks in one fell swoop.
For a time, the Central Plains was in a state of excitement, and both the officials and the people were overwhelmed by the impact of such a huge victory.
Since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the country and the people of the Central Plains have been invaded by the barbarians outside the Great Wall, and the situation of one Han conquering the five barbarians is no longer the same as during the Han Dynasty.
From the next six years of Wuxing to the tenth year of Wuxing, in addition to Wu's own economic development, what all the people talked about most was the group of tycoons who fought for supremacy in the world in the late Sui Dynasty and occupied large tracts of land in the west of the Western Regions.
, directly established the country and paid tribute to Wu.
Emperor Wu Leihu was also generous. According to the size of the territory they each occupied, he directly ennobled the defeated ones who conquered the world as the kings of one country.
This was the establishment of a feudal vassal state, which immediately aroused the jealousy of some powerful factions within Wu, who also wanted to be the masters of their own affairs.
