Chapter 1320 Ending

As for Li Tonghai, after doing all this, he could no longer suppress it and fell into a deep state of confusion.

Thinking back to the beginning, when he first followed Huang Tian Taoist and swept the world, he received countless similar surrenders. At that time, Huang Tian's army was huge and there were many cities wherever they went. As soon as Huang Tian's army arrived, they opened the city gates and surrendered. How prominent and majestic.

But later, the situation suddenly changed, and when Huang Tianjun pushed to Qingzhou, he couldn't even take down Cao Zheng. Cao Zheng even sent people to send medicinal materials to persuade him to surrender.

And he even wavered.

As for the reason, it was naturally that there was no hope for Huang Tianjun.

After all, he is no longer the lonely man he was when he first joined Huang Tianjun. At that time, he had wives, concubines, and children. Even if it was not for himself, he had to plan for future generations.

But now, just a few years later, the situation has changed again. In a few years, Zhao Cheng led a group of defeated soldiers to sweep through the Southern Wasteland, and accumulated enough power to sweep the world.

The achievements of a thousand years are right in front of you.

Cao Zheng, who had persuaded him to surrender in the past, in turn surrendered to him.

All the changes in it can be said to be unpredictable.

…

"Cao Zheng surrendered, this is just the icing on the cake!"

In the mountains and forests, Zhao Cheng received the secret message with a dull expression.

He actually attaches great importance to talents. Even if they are powerful families, he does not kill them all. Instead, if there are talents who are willing to be used by him, he will deal with them lightly and only kill those who commit crimes. The rest will just confiscate their property, then disperse and move to one place.

But if there is no talent, it will be ruined.

In this regard, Zhao Cheng is very flexible.

After all, being used by him is merit, and he will naturally be more tolerant to those who have merit.

Just like Wu Qi, when Zhao Cheng won the victory, he did not kill him. Although this also meant to appease people, more importantly, Wu Qi was willing to use him.

As for Cao Zheng's surrender, if Zhao Cheng's soldiers were not strong and his horses were not strong, he would naturally be surprised. But now that his soldiers are strong and his horses are strong, and his army is in full swing, this surrender seems a bit insignificant.

But this is always the case in this world. When you are weak and need help the most, it is almost impossible to meet anyone willing to help you except your close relatives. But when you become strong, even if you don’t need help, There are also a bunch of people lining up, rushing to help you.

The so-called hot and cold world is probably like this.

"They say that when times come, the heaven and the earth share the same strength, and it is not up to humans to transport heroes. Now I am in charge of millions of soldiers, and transporting them here and there, what does it have to do with me?!"

Zhao Cheng crushed the note, and then said: "Send an order to the entire army to rest for a day. Don't light a fire to cook. Eat the dry food you brought with you. Get some rest. Go out to the Southern Wilderness tomorrow and seize the plank road!"

Zhao Cheng issued such an order.

Along the way, even with advance preparation, the journey is still difficult. However, because there are 20,000 reserve troops, the mental and physical losses of the 10,000 Taiping soldiers are within an acceptable range.

On the other hand, the 20,000 reservists were a bit unbearable. Each and every one of them was fat and strong before setting off, but now, they are all so thin that their bones can be seen vaguely.

But it's all worth it. If we don't use this method, we can send 10,000 elite aces out of the Southern Wilderness.

If you want to seize the plank road from the front, you must seize it and build it at the same time. Not to mention the delay, but the death toll must be at least 50,000.

And the death of so many people is actually secondary. The more important thing is military morale.

This army came out of the Southern Wilderness when it was at its sharpest. If it had suffered a big setback at this time, it would have definitely made the army exhausted and its momentum greatly reduced.

In the army, strong momentum and weak momentum are completely two different concepts.

The effect Zhao Cheng wants is to create an invincible momentum. Only in this way can the army become stronger and stronger and the enemy become more afraid!

He claimed to be the queen and spent three years settling down just for this time.

He wants everyone in the world to know that destiny is his!

Once this is known, the hearts of the people in the world will silently gather towards him.

"Thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are picturesque, but it's a pity that there is never a clean time!"

After issuing the military order, Zhao Cheng actually reached the treetops within a few moments. In the dense forest below, there was a sea of ​​green, and further away, there were overlapping peaks. With Zhao Cheng's eyes, it was even more... You can see the faint smoke.

That's the smoke from the sky.

After all, the confinement of the earth is still too strong. Even if he can stand on the fragile treetops now, he still needs to borrow strength, and it is impossible for Feng Xu to control the wind and soar to the sky and the earth.

Of course, with his current achievements, he can fly on the cannonballs for a short period of time, but this is meaningless.

The path he is taking now is a true path of domination, using a large army to push all the way, killing enemies and generals, and creating an invincible momentum.

As for relying on his skills to assassinate and kill the enemy general, he would not do it even if there was no backlash from his energy.

The way of assassination is what assassins do, not what kings do. If a king does this, he will be like a snake and insect, without the masculinity of a true dragon.

When one reaches the highest level of cultivation, momentum is very important, because momentum is the manifestation of the heart. Without the masculine and domineering spirit of a king, without the majestic momentum of swallowing up mountains and rivers, even if one is lucky enough to gain the world, it is impossible to become a true earthly country.

Because the mind is not strong enough, it is impossible to control the supreme power.

On the contrary, if one follows the path of an emperor instead of building a country, even a tapeworm can have considerable magical powers under the support of a country.

Below, following Zhao Cheng's military order, a group of soldiers cut down the grass and trees, sprinkled powder on the ground to remove snakes and insects, and then began to eat one bite at a time. The food was dry biscuits mixed with medicinal materials and sugar. Not only can it be preserved for a long time, but it can also nourish the body. The biscuits are very hard, and only a small bite can be taken at a time, and then finely ground in the mouth.

As for Zhao Cheng, he didn't eat anything. He can now eat air. As for the problem of water, his body is constantly absorbing moisture from the air.

Even a golden immortal cannot do the fasting. As long as you are on earth, you have to eat.

The Taoist's magic power cannot be transformed into water and grain essence.

But Zhao Cheng broke this rule.

At the end of the world, a red sun slowly sets at this moment. The last light makes the clouds in the sky red, like dusk blood.

On the tall tower of Tianjue Pass, Cao Zheng is also looking at this rare red sky. The red light shines on his face, and even his black beard is stained with a layer of red at this moment.

For some reason, looking at such an ordinary celestial phenomenon at this moment, he suddenly has an unusual feeling in his heart.

It seems that this means the complete decline and end of an era.

After a short night, the new sun will rise the next day with unprecedented vitality.

So he made a decision to get up early tomorrow and watch the sunrise.

At this moment, a soldier hurried over, knelt down to greet him, and then hurriedly said: "General, I see you are here. The Marshal is hosting a banquet in his mansion. Please come over..."
