Chapter 666: Big Victory!
"Boom!!!"
It was unknown how long it had passed, but the battle between Jiang Che and Hu Yuanlie seemed to have reached its final moment. Jiang Che, who was willing to sacrifice everything, burned his own blood and Yang Shen without hesitation.
In exchange for an excellent opportunity, he slashed out with a sword and directly cut off one of Hu Yuanlie's arms. Although it had grown back again after consuming blood, it had not been tempered.
It was undoubtedly the shortcoming at this moment.
And Hu Yuanlie himself was also repelled by Jiang Che for dozens of miles. After wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Hu Yuanlie's face was extremely ugly. He never expected that Jiang Che would be so strong.
Even if he burned his divine blood, he still couldn't gain the upper hand. After fighting for less than a quarter of an hour, Jiang Che cut off one of his arms. If he continued to fight.
Safety is unpredictable
Thinking of this, Hu Yuanlie had already had the intention to retreat at this moment, and directly tore the void to get away. When he returned to heaven and earth, he was shocked to find out.
The army under his command was now completely defeated, and the Central Plains troops were chasing him all the way.
The strong men he brought with him also suffered heavy casualties at this moment. The number of people who died alone was already a handful, and almost all the others were seriously injured.
Although the Central Plains Martial Saint also suffered heavy casualties, this loss still made him tear his eyes out.
Because these more than 20 Martial Saints were almost the top strong men gathered from most of the grassland, and even several of them were from the Barbarian Temple.
If all of them were buried here, the entire grassland might even face the danger of extinction.
Turning his eyes to Duan Yuntian again, Hu Yuanlie was immediately furious. Looking at the entire battlefield, the others were fighting bloody battles, and only he was extremely relaxed.
Competing with a Central Plains strong man in the power of rules.
At this moment, he once again thought of the old saying circulating in the Central Plains.
Those who are not of my race must have different hearts!
Duan Yuntian, there is no way he would fight for the king's court.
But at this moment, it was obviously not the time to pursue these things. Hu Yuanlie frowned and said in a deep and loud voice:
"Retreat! Retreat back to the camp!"
"Retreat!!!"
Hu Yuanlie's roar was like thunder, resounding throughout the area of 100 miles. All the Northern Barbarians' Martial Saint Sword Khans seemed unable to resist the Martial King Jiang Che of the Central Plains.
The last trace of fighting spirit finally disappeared.
At the command.
They tore open the void one after another and began to retreat with all their magical powers.
"Want to leave? Not that easy!"
Accompanied by an indifferent voice, Jiang Che's true body was also reflected in the void, which was a thousand feet high and exuded a terrifying pressure that was difficult to describe in words.
As soon as the voice fell, the golden sword energy was spread across the world.
"Hmph!"
Hu Yuanlie snorted coldly, and with a thought, the rules of endless fire surged, turning into a huge fire curtain, blocking Jiang Che's sword that split the sky and the earth.
Although he couldn't beat Jiang Che, he was a rule-based immortal after all, so he could still stop the opponent.
And with his final cover.
The rest of the Northern Barbarian Martial Saints fled for their lives regardless of everything.
Of course, the strong men from Youzhou City couldn't just stand by and watch, and they all rushed up to kill.
"This battle is over, let's stop here."
Duan Yuntian looked at this scene, as if he had expected it, and his expression was very calm.
Ancestor Ku Rong frowned and wanted to refute, but after weighing the strength of both sides, he didn't say much, but just snorted, and didn't stop the Northern Barbarian Martial Saint from escaping.
In an instant, Jiang Che and Hu Yuanlie fought again, and the power created by the two people who appeared between heaven and earth was unparalleled, and the earth and the sky turned upside down at any time.
The injuries on Hu Yuanlie's body were also gradually getting worse.
However, he didn't have the confidence to fight Jiang Che anymore. After seeing that almost all the Northern Barbarian Martial Saints had fled into the turbulent flow of the void, he turned around and left without hesitation.
A long trace was left between heaven and earth.
"Kill, pursue the victory!"
Feng Yujiang's golden armor was stained with blood, and his long hair was disheveled, but at this moment, he was full of fighting spirit. For several years, except for the time when the God King Ji Chengdao took action, he was almost always suppressed.
Now that he finally saw the hope of winning, he naturally didn't want to miss this victory.
He led a group of Martial Saints and chased them directly.
The soldiers and horses below were also full of fighting spirit, chasing them all the way north.
The chase lasted for hundreds of miles before it stopped. The hundreds of thousands of Northern Barbarian Iron Cavalry that attacked the city today could not catch up with the Martial Saints at all, and almost all of them died in front of Youzhou City.
On the ground, the thick blood was diffused in the sky and earth.
Broken limbs and arms, armored beasts, corpses were everywhere.
Against the backdrop of the setting sun, it looked extremely tragic and tragic.
There were many reasons why Feng Yujiang and others did not continue to pursue, the most important of which was that all the Northern Barbarian Martial Saints had fled back to the camp.
The camp set up by the Northern Barbarians was not only solid, but also had a very terrifying formation, which was difficult to break through. After all, they did not have overwhelming strength.
They just had a slight advantage.
If they continued to fight, their casualties would increase sharply.
It was for this reason that when they saw that they could no longer attack and after probing, Jiang Che, with a solemn face, chose to stop fighting immediately and return to Youzhou City to rest and wait.
After all, people are not objects and have their limits.
This battle lasted for almost a whole day, especially the second half of the day, which was extremely brutal. Even if it was as strong as the Martial Saint, it would still consume a lot of money. If the battle continued, it would only increase casualties.
But no matter what, they won this battle.
The Northern Barbarians marched south, totaling about 600,000 men, all of whom were elite cavalrymen drawn from various parts of the grassland. In this single battle, they killed nearly 200,000 men.
In one battle, the opponent was reduced by one-third.
There are even hundreds of people who have fallen, such as Xuandan Grandmaster and Shenxiang Grandmaster.
Even among the powerful Martial Saints, as many as six of the Northern Barbarians died, nearly a third of them. Of the rest, two had their bodies shattered, and almost all of the remaining ones were injured.
On the other hand, on their side, due to the decisive battle at the beginning of the war and the blessing of Tianyuan's elite, the number of casualties was less than 50,000. Three martial saints were killed, two were seriously injured, and everyone else was injured.
It can be called a miserable victory.
But no matter what, a miserable victory is also a victory.
At least in the past hundred years, such a great victory has not been achieved.
When we returned to Youzhou City, we could clearly see that almost most people's faces were filled with joy, and countless people were talking about King Wu Jiang Che, and their words were full of respect.
At this moment, everyone from the Martial Saint to the common people heard Jiang Che's words, and felt from the bottom of their hearts that the reason why this battle was won was all because of Jiang Che's actions.
It can be said that it is a battle to win people's hearts.
"In the previous battle, I" In the palace, Ancestor Kurong frowned slightly and wanted to explain what happened before. After all, in this battle, if counted, he contributed the least.
Seeing this, Jiang Che raised his hand to stop what Ancestor Kurong said next, and said with a smile:
"The success of this battle is all due to the efforts of fellow Taoists. There is no need to explain too much."
In fact, this sentence is not all a relief. In fact, Jiang Che did realize the importance of Ancestor Kurong. Although the opponent had no results in this battle.
Perhaps being able to hold Duanyuntian in check is the greatest achievement.
Otherwise, not to mention severely damaging the Northern Barbarians, it would be a blessing to remain undefeated.
After all, there is no doubt about Duan Yuntian's strength, and now that he has understood the power of rules, he feels that the opponent is even stronger than the Great Khan of the Northern Barbarians, Ku Yuan Lie.
Of course, the specific details will only be clear after the fight.
"Your Majesty."
While the two were talking, Feng Yujiang, who had put on a black official robe again, came closer and saluted Jiang Che with a fist in his hand. At this moment, he was not wearing a python robe.
He is just wearing a simple black military robe, which means he knows the superiority and inferiority of the superior. Now Jiang Che has not yet proclaimed himself emperor, and is wearing a python robe, if he is also wearing a python robe.
In the eyes of outsiders, who is superior and who is inferior?
After this battle, he was completely convinced by Jiang Che, and he no longer had any dissatisfaction in his heart. In the past, although he did surrender to Jiang Che, he did not surrender sincerely.
It's just because the pressure on Beiman is too great.
After all, Jiang Che, the King of Wu, was self-proclaimed, but he, the King of the North, was appointed by the previous dynasty. The two were completely different, and Jiang Che was very young and very different from him.
Asking him to surrender to a young man was really hard to accept.
But it's different now.
Jiang Che has proven his majesty with facts.
Not only did he have great trust in him, he directly sent hundreds of thousands of elite troops to help him, and even rushed to this place for thousands of miles. In the first battle, he led the army and people of Youzhou to defeat the northern barbarians.
At this moment, what reason does he have for not being sincerely convinced?
In his opinion, Jiang Che now has the air of a king, and has actually unified the Central Plains. At least he is a powerful king similar to Taizu Zhou.
If he was unaware of current affairs, it would be difficult for him to imagine his own fate.
As for marriage
To the king, it is just a relationship and nothing.
"The King of the North doesn't need to be polite."
Jiang Che stood with his hands behind his back and nodded slightly.
"Your Majesty, Fellow Taoist Kurong, the celebration banquet is now ready, look."
"In that case, let's go. I'd like to trouble the King of the North to introduce me to you."
"Your Majesty Please"
The northern barbarian camp.
now.
Compared to the jubilation in Youzhou City, which even held a grand celebration banquet, the situation in the Beiman camp was depressing, and soldiers could be seen falling together feebly everywhere.
As for the reason
Nothing else.
The morale of the army is greatly reduced.
In the past, it was their Northern Barbarian army that invaded the Central Plains and destroyed more than ten thousand miles of the Central Plains. They could only rely on Youzhou City to resist them, and they were victorious one after another.
Military morale has already reached its peak.
It is believed that the Central Plains is within easy reach, and the people of the Central Plains are even more weak.
But this battle broke their illusions.
The hundreds of thousands of vanguard troops not only failed to capture the city, but were also killed along the way. So far, the entire army has been wiped out. This is an extremely huge blow.
They had never experienced such a defeat.
And they couldn't even make up lies to deceive themselves. After all, in this battle, not only hundreds of thousands of vanguard troops were dispatched, but also almost all the Saint Realm experts in the camp.
Even the Great Khan went on an expedition in person, but came back defeated.
In fact, if they had not set up a peerless formation in the camp, it might be difficult to save the camp. This was the real reason for their extreme frustration.
Because they no longer see any hope of winning.
So what if the entire army is dispatched?
This time he was defeated and defeated, will he be an exception next time?
For a while, the talk of retreating back home was so rampant that it was difficult to suppress it even if it was suppressed.
This is the bad nature of the grassland people. In a battle where they can see the hope of victory, they are extremely brave, but once they show signs of defeat, they are like a group of stray dogs, and only care about saving their lives.
Of course, this is not their fault, because they are not from the same tribe, but soldiers from various tribes recruited by the royal court. For them, returning alive is the most important thing.
Under such a situation.
Hu Yuanlie was also extremely furious.
After returning to the camp, he immediately summoned all the Saint Realm powerhouses in the king's tent. At this moment, more than a dozen martial saints seemed to have lost their spirit and sat aside weakly.
After this battle, they thoroughly witnessed the true strength of the Central Plains, and their fighting spirit gradually declined.
"Why are you silent? My royal army has won victory after victory, swallowed up tens of thousands of miles of territory in the Central Plains, and almost lost everything in the north of the Central Plains. Now it's just a small setback due to unpreparedness.
Could it be that you dare not continue to move south?"
Hu Yuanlie stared at the martial saints present, but his eyes fell on Duan Yuntian intentionally or unintentionally. He blamed the other party for the defeat in this battle.
If this person hadn't deliberately delayed and worked without effort, Youzhou City would have been taken long ago.
If this person could show his true strength in today's battle, this battle would not have been lost, but this person still worked without effort and deliberately showed weakness there.
This is why they suffered a great defeat.
If Duan Yuntian was under his jurisdiction, he would have scolded and cursed him long ago, but the other party was out of control, so he had no place to vent his anger. But at this moment, he still sat there, as if it had nothing to do with him.
"Khan, in this battle, we..."
A martial saint couldn't help but speak, but he couldn't say anything, and finally he could only sigh.
"Khan, there are some things that others dare not say, but I still have to say them." A strong man in armor at the lower left said in a deep voice.
"Marshal Gu Ming, just say what you want to say,"
Hu Yuanlie narrowed his eyes.
"The reason why we lost this battle is because there are two more powerful people in the Central Plains. Now there are four human immortals gathered in Youzhou City, and we only have three.
If this problem is not solved, the next battle will still be doomed to failure."
"What do you think?"
"I think that either we should continue to draw strong men from the royal court, and it would be better to ask the high priest to come here. With his help, everything will be fine. Otherwise, I'm afraid we can only withdraw our troops.
Otherwise, it will be disadvantageous for us to be stuck here."
The man in armor analyzed in a deep voice. (End of this chapter)
