Chapter 357 Fall

The fall of Martha Saint Uriel had far-reaching consequences.

The city that belonged to her changed its flag overnight.

However, because of the characteristics of the faith system, eight out of ten natural people under Martha Saint Uriel chose to betray her, and for the sake of the God of Light, they drew their swords against Martha Saint Uriel.

This is one of the most unfriendly aspects of the faith system to war agents. Most of the natural people that the war agents of the faith system have painstakingly cultivated are not their people, but the people of the gods they believe in.

In this case, even if the Lord God has no orders, once these natural people, including natural generals and natural soldiers, feel that their war agents have betrayed the Lord God, they will turn against the war agents.

Unlike Dong Huang, his subordinates have only one will and one voice, and everyone is loyal to Dong Huang as the core. The temple is just a means for them to strengthen their strength.

Of course, due to the different control levels, the assistance provided by the gods of both sides is also different. Generally speaking, the faith system provides slightly more assistance.

Because of the loyalty of natural people, the Guancheng that Dong Huang originally wanted to force to surrender also broke out in civil strife.

Fortunately, the city was almost out of food, morale was low, and the army was scattered. In addition to the oppression of the army and the persuasion of Martha Saint Uriel, it finally retained about one-third of the troops.

Although Dong Huang did not think much of these troops, they were at least cannon fodder. With them, Dong Huang did not have to spend extra money to summon more troops.

It is worth mentioning that this hearty victory also rescued the Moon Saint Hengxi and Yuyi, two of the three saints of Yin Fang.

Hengxi is a mature and beautiful big sister who has been well trained by Martha Saint Uriel, but the flat and wild Yuyi still has a little bit of spiritual clarity.

Yuyi has persisted until now and has not been completely tamed by Martha Saint Uriel.

According to Martha Saint Uriel, the main reason why Yuyi was not completely tamed was that the projection of the god she believed in in this world was still alive.

Not long ago, she made the famous female war god kneel down and beg for mercy. In the more distant past, she also enjoyed the flattery of the incarnation of Amaterasu and the shaving of the great demon Tamamonomae.

In short, Dong Huang was not afraid of the gods.

Dong Huang enjoyed the service of the three saints very happily.

The sacred attributes of Martha Saint Uriel did not disappear. Wherever her tongue passed, it was warm and tiredness disappeared.

Hengxi was like a poisonous little dragon. It was hard to believe that she was a saint admired by everyone before.

Yuyi had a madness different from her identity. She was so crazy that when Dong Huang was enjoying Yuyi's initiative, a little accident occurred.

When Yuyi was spitting blood, a string of golden runes also stained Dong Huang's body.

The next moment, a shadow with wings that looked like a snake but was not a snake appeared in Dong Huang's sea of ​​consciousness.

"I am Quetzalcoatl. The blood contract has been reached. Why don't you offer me your body!"

Quetzalcoatl laughed loudly and opened his bloody mouth. The suction force like sucking soil came out of his mouth, as if he wanted to swallow Dong Huang's spirit into his stomach.

However, Dong Huang in the state of spirit remained motionless, just with a sword hanging from his waist, sitting on a throne formed by a giant beast with nine dragon heads.

Behind him, there appeared the shadows of many weapons and artifacts, including the holy flag of Joan of Arc, the three sacred artifacts of Amaterasu, the Huang of the Xiahou clan, the imperial seal, and the mysterious heavenly book, as well as the residual souls of the dead soldiers of Dayu.

A blazing sun bird hovered over Dong Huang's head, and its sharp eyes cut through the darkness, as if it contained endless anger.

"What the hell..."

This time, Quetzalcoatl couldn't help but panic.

It was just a remnant soul of Quetzalcoatl in this mission space. Its instinct told it that after taking over the body of a powerful war agent, it could enter the infinite war space as a war agent and gain a real new life.

But this posture...

Quetzalcoatl finally realized that it seemed to have chosen the wrong target.

However, it was too late.

Suddenly, the Sun Bird swooped down, opened its beak, and swallowed the Quetzalcoatl, who was still so majestic just a moment ago, into its belly with irresistible power.

The flames of all living things, composed of the golden flames of the sun, the flames of Zhurong, and the worship and faith of hundreds of millions of Dayu soldiers and subjects who returned to their hearts, burned, refined, and absorbed the remnant soul of Quetzalcoatl...

"What is this...ah~let me go~let me go..."

The voice of Quetzalcoatl begging for mercy came from the belly of the Sun Bird.

But obviously, it didn't know what posture to use to beg for mercy.

The voice of begging for mercy became weaker and soon died out.

Then the Sun Bird spit out raging flames, which scattered in Dong Huang's spiritual space and drilled into Dong Huang's spiritual body, making Dong Huang's spiritual space wider and Dong Huang's spiritual body larger and more solid.

Xiangliu Medusa, who had evolved by obtaining the dragon soul before, also swallowed several balls of flames, and a pair of wings grew on her back.

Another great harvest.

However, Dong Huang was confused throughout the whole process. He didn't know that his spiritual space was so strong.

However, someone soon answered his questions.

A fairy with a lazy posture appeared in Dong Huang's sea of ​​consciousness.

She lay on the Nine Dragon Bed, her jade hands supporting her cheeks, her delicate and lovely jade feet raised, and looked at Dong Huang with a smile.

It was the female fairy who appeared when Amaterasu wanted to forcibly seize Dong Huang's ownership.

"I've seen fairies!"

Dong Huang showed great respect for the female fairy.

Because Dong Huang wanted to hug his thigh, in every sense of the word.

There is a saying that the female fairy's body is the most perfect among all the women he has ever seen. Her round and delicate thighs and delicate and lovely feet are also the most attractive to Dong Huang.

The fairy has a unique charm, a charm that makes people lick her whole body.

"You say you are respectful, but your heart is dirty!"

The female fairy seemed to be indifferent to Dong Huang's inner thoughts. Instead, she changed her posture intentionally or unintentionally, revealing more of her plump white hair from the slits of her skirt.

Dong Huang admired it unscrupulously.

If you don’t see it, you won’t see it.

"Hehe... You are becoming more and more fearless in looking down on the world... To make a long story short, this time it was thanks to Quetzalcoatl, who was completely dead on the outside but still had some remaining trash on the inside, that I was able to Appear, this world has my legacy, in the Dragon Ji of Canglong Qisu, take Houxin with me...

In addition, if you obtain the godhead and refine it directly, don’t follow the divine way! We must follow the path of human emperors! "

The fairy warned sternly.

"Human Emperor Dao?"

Dong Huang was very curious.

"Practice the techniques I gave you well. Gods will kill gods and Buddhas. No one dares to stand in your way. The emperor's way will be self-contained."

The female fairy said in a brisk tone.

Dong Huang:......

Can I cut it?

However, the female fairy just covered her mouth and chuckled, and then her figure disappeared into Dong Huang's mental space.

Before disappearing completely, he left a final warning for Dong Huang: "Those who hide in the infinite war space for various reasons may actually be resurrected, or they may be absorbed and assimilated into the space and die, and their legacy is good for all gods. "

The female fairy has said before that unless there is a special opportunity, she cannot appear easily. It seems that the cover brought by Quetzalcoatl, a god who is completely dead outside, is only enough for the female fairy to appear this time. Take some time.

Of course, it is also possible that the female fairy felt that she had blasphemed him, so she was petty in her revenge and deliberately did not finish her sentence. At least Dong Huang felt that the human imperial way she spoke of contained some important content.

An unknown amount of time passed in the sea of ​​consciousness, but in the outside world it was only a moment.

At this moment, the image of Quetzalcoatl in the minds of all the people in this world who believed in Quetzalcoatl changed into Xiangliu Medusa, who was under Dong Huang's command.

The main god they believed in became Dong Huang.

Xiang Liu Medusa, who was originally used as a binding and storage tool by Dong Huang, emitted a high-speed light at this moment. Dong Huang's many sacrifices, washed by the power of faith of tens of millions of indigenous people who believed in Quetzalcoatl and the divine fire of the sun bird, finally achieved perfect integration and became a complete life-type artifact.

There are more positions for bondage.

In the sea of ​​Dong Huang's consciousness, nine sexy, hot and perfect figures that fit Dong Huang's aesthetic point are entwined around Dong Huang. An invisible yet tangible chain connects them to Dong Huang, foreshadowing them. As Dong Huang's subordinate, the destiny can never be separated.

But the nine lovely sisters didn't mind.

Their existence all originated from Dong Huang, and everything about them also originated from Dong Huang.

At this moment, Dong Huang also received his second natal magic weapon.

Let me tell you something, with these nine charming beauties with different styles, either royal sisters, lolita, pure, sexy, charming, cute, cool, noble or mature, people The Imperial Sword lost its fragrance instantly.

"I'm here to meet you/to fight with each other/to fight each other/to be in charge of each other/to be in phase with each other/to be in phase formation/to be in formation/to be in front of each other/to be in phase with each other."

The nine girls were tightly wrapped around Dong Huang's body, not wanting to separate for a moment.

Dong Huang also enjoyed it.

I see that the weapon is also very handsome!

As for the names of the nine people, Dong Huang, who was connected with them, instantly understood that these were the names they were born with at the moment of their birth, corresponding to the "Nine-Character Mantra" or "Nine-Character Secret".

Dong Huang guessed that this might be related to the nine dragon souls, and of course, it might also be related to Xiang Liu's nine poems.

Whether it is the nine dragon souls or the nine heads of Xiangliu, they have different abilities and independent consciousness, but they are able to communicate with each other and have extremely strong abilities.

After a few episodes, Dong Huang also embarked on his journey back to Kyushu.

With the reinforcements brought by Dong Huang, the newly cultivated soldiers and horses, the cooperation of five high-level cities, as well as the dark elf Rhaenys, the fallen angel Martha St. Uriel with divine wings, etc., there should not be a big problem.

The only problem is that Fazheng wants Hua Tuo to come over.

Dong Huang always felt that Fa Zheng was doing something terrible.

Because Lu Lingqi and others chose to stay in this world and carve out a large territory for their father, some dark elves and the like felt very miserable on the way back to the city.

——

Dong Huang left Jiuzhou for more than a year. During this year, the wars among the countries did not stop.

First of all, the most intense battle was the battle between Qin and Zhao.

Wang Jian, who finally stopped fighting a frustrating battle, once again showed off his power and made a forceful attack on Wu'an, an important town in the northwest of Handan. However, he secretly sent elite troops to the rear of the 100,000-strong army of Zhao Cong and Yan who were guarding Zhangshui, and launched a surprise attack.

Meng Ao keenly seized the opportunity of Zhao Jun's chaos, and fought with Wang Jian from front to back, defeating Zhao Cong and Yan Ju's troops, killing 50,000 men in the formation, and took advantage of the situation to capture Linzhang, Pingyang, Yi'an, Feixia and other cities.

The remaining troops of Zhao Cong and Yan Ju retreated to Handan.

Handan City was in a state of panic.

Wang Jian, who was praised by Meng Ao and reinforced with troops, took advantage of the victory and captured Wu'an, killing the general Fu Di of the Zhao army.

At this point, the south and west of Handan were completely surrounded by the Qin army.

The rumor of moving the capital was blown again in the court of Zhao.

This time, Song Ji and others tried their best, but failed to persuade the King of Zhao - the King of Zhao also wanted to run away.

At this critical moment, Li Mu's reinforcements came.

Li Mu led a high-speed surprise attack force consisting of 1,300 chariots and 13,000 cavalry to surprise and defeat the troops of Li Chong, who had defeated the general of Zhao, Hu Zhe, and surrendered to the King of Zhao in a way that slapped his uncle in the face.

Li Mu had a total of 200,000 elite troops, but the strongest were less than 20,000. Under the leadership of Li Mu, each of these people could at least exert the strength of the ninth level, and there were many mythical first-level ones among them.

Li Mu's arrival and great victory gave Zhao's monarchs and ministers a shot in the arm.

The morale of the army and civilians in Handan was stimulated.

Meng Ao and Wang Jian keenly noticed the change in the morale of the defenders of Handan, and Meng Ao was ready to fight a decisive battle with Li Mu with the elite corps.

However, Meng Ao was not in a hurry to attack, but was waiting.

Meng Ao was waiting for the main force of the Zhao army to gather, and then fight a decisive battle.

Although the Qin army had an advantage in manpower at this time, if it wanted to attack Handan, the capital of Zhao, it was still unpredictable.

The combat strategy of the Qin army since Shang Yang's reform, especially since Bai Qi, has been to annihilate the enemy's living forces.

They all like to fight a large annihilation war.

This time is no exception.

Meng Ao wants to wait until the other reinforcements of Zhao arrive, and then fight a war to destroy the country.

Li Mu?

Humph, a mere unknown person!

Meng Ao is very confident.

However, in the following battles, Meng Ao suffered a lot.

Under the instigation of Song Ji and a group of war agents, as well as the incompetence of generals such as Zhao Cong and Yan Ju, who even dared not leave the city, the King of Zhao finally decided to hand over the whole country's troops to Li Mu.

When Li Mu's other elite troops arrived, Li Mu already had nearly 400,000 elite soldiers under his command.

In the following battles, Li Mu used his ability to show that he was not only good at cavalry warfare, but also good at all types of battles. Under his command, the Zhao army had the strength of the city inside and the advantage of cavalry outside, and actually fought back and forth with the Qin army.

Whether it was Meng Ao, Wang Jian or Li Mu, the use of troops was almost impeccable and would not make any simple mistakes.

Although there were wins and losses on the battlefield, they were all small wins and losses.

The decisive battle that Meng Ao expected did not take place, but instead became a tragic war of attrition.

This long-lasting battle ended with the retreat of the Qin army.

But this does not mean that the Zhao army won, because even after Li Mu became the commander, the Zhao army continued to lose more than 100,000 troops in the fierce battle.

Of course, Qin was not much better, but the problem was that Qin replenished its troops quickly, while Zhao did not?

Zhao had never really recovered since the Battle of Changping and the series of battles that followed. It was originally thought that it would be able to recover after seizing Yan, defeating Qi, and occupying Hebei, but this happened again.

No matter what, although the siege of Handan was lifted, Pang Nuan's troops on the other side could not be saved.

Pang Nuan, who was out of ammunition and food, wanted to surrender to Qi, but was unanimously opposed by his subordinates.

The lesson of the Battle of Changping was too terrible, and the Zhao army was now terrified by the news of surrender.

Pang Nuan, who was kidnapped by his men, could only order a desperate battle and launched multiple attacks on the Qi army, defeating the Qi army at one time.

However, this still could not change the situation of Pang Nuan's troops being short of food.

In the end, it was Mi Zhu who stayed in Qi who came up with a solution.

Mi Zhu persuaded the King of Qi: "If the elite soldiers of Zhao State fought back, the Qi army would suffer heavy losses. Would Qi State still have the strength to conquer Hebei? But these treacherous Zhao people obviously cannot be released, because if they are released today, they will become our enemies again tomorrow? But the Zhao people did not dare to surrender to Qi State, fearing that they would be killed.

So, why not sell these Zhao people to Dayu?

Qi State can get money and food, Dayu can get population to develop Lingnan, and these Zhao people can also survive. And with the credibility of Dayu, these Zhao people will not disbelieve it, right?"

Under the attack of money, Hou Sheng persuaded the King of Qi to accept Mi Zhu's suggestion.

These Zhao people who were out of ammunition and food saw that the people coming were from Yu State, and they were the elder brother-in-law of the Emperor of Dayu, and they were willing to take themselves as hostages to ensure the safety of these Zhao people. Without knowing how many elder brothers-in-law the Emperor of Dayu had, most of the Zhao people who did not want to die chose to believe Mi Zhu's words.

Dayu only paid some food and money in exchange for more than 100,000 elite soldiers.

Only a few generals such as Pang Nuan and Le Jian were unwilling to surrender to Dayu and secretly left the camp to surrender to the Qin army occupying the northern part of Wei.

Most of these people had no blood feud with Qin or had a grudge against Lian Po, so they naturally could not surrender to Dayu.

As for those who surrendered to Dayu, they were sent to Korea after several twists and turns.

It was very difficult for Dayu's generals to make these Zhao people return to their hearts and form a legion of combat power, but don't forget that there is still a Lian Po sharpening his sword in Korea!

Many of these Zhao troops were Lian Po's former subordinates, and they should be able to form combat power quickly with Lian Po.

Of course, mixed formations and sand mixing are also necessary. Although there is no fear of Lian Po's rebellion, it is impossible to let these surrendered soldiers whose families are not around to form an army according to the original organization.

In general, after this chaotic war, Dayu became the country that benefited the most among all the countries, followed by Qin. Zhao, Qi, and Wei all became losers, and Wei was basically destroyed.

In the second year of Qin Wangzheng, the land of Kyushu was generally in chaos.

In this chaos, some people have noticed the hidden crisis, while others are unaware of it.

Qin's prime minister Lu Buwei noticed the existence of the crisis. Dayu's actions in Wanye made Lu Buwei, who was born as a big businessman, keenly realize that Dayu might be preparing for a food war, because the food production in Wanye and even Nanjun was severely damaged. Not only that, the Yu people also looted people on a large scale.

Realizing the seriousness of the matter, Lu Buwei began to order the stockpiling of food, but Qin had been fighting for years, especially the consumption of the army such as Meng Ao on the front line, so the official warehouses did not accumulate much food.

What Lü Buwei was worried about soon came true.

In the third year of the reign of Qin, Qin suffered from a severe famine.

The third and fourth years of the reign of Qin were the two years when Qin suffered from more natural and man-made disasters. According to historical records, "There was a severe famine in the third year." "In July of the fourth year, there were locusts and epidemics. The people were ordered to pay a thousand stones of millet and be granted a rank of nobility."

In this time and space, because of the loss of Bashu and the lack of Zhengguo Canal, the land of Wanye and Nanyang were also in a mess. In addition, because Qin had fought more and more fierce wars than in history, the food problem in Qin became unprecedentedly serious in the face of natural and man-made disasters.

Dayu learned this information at the first time.

Compared with the food problem in Qin, Dayu was not good weather, but because of the reclamation of a large number of garrison soldiers, the acquisition of a large number of spiritual fields in Yingzhou, and the return of the southern barbarians and Baiyue, Dayu's granary was very full.

So, after consulting Hou Xin, Jia Xu decisively adjusted some of the established strategies and organized the second battle of Nanjun.

The last battle of Nanjun ended with Dayu's army barely winning and taking Yingdu. This time, Jia Xu's goal is to at least take Yancheng and Deng to further consume Qin; at the same time, he will try to take Bazhong and Jiange, and it would be best if he could occupy Hanzhong.

After taking Yancheng, the [Nine Songs] mission will come to an end, and Dong Huang can be deified.

Jia Xu also wants to be a god!

If Deng (Xiangyang) can be taken, then Qin's Nanyang County may not be able to be saved.

As for Bazhong and Jiange, if you want to take them, you either have to cut off the food supply or wait for Qin to get crazy. In short, a frontal attack is impossible.

But in the case of famine in Qin, is Qin still willing to maintain such a long food route? Especially the huge food route from Hanzhong to Bazhong?

After the plan was set, Dayu's Han army was the first to go out. Dian Wei's troops went out to Xingyang again, showing a trend of cutting off the connection between Qin's homeland and the newly acquired Wei land. After defeating Neishiteng's troops, Taishi Ci, Le Jin and other troops went to the Nanyang Basin and surrounded Ye County. As for Guo Jia's troops, they withdrew to Xinzheng for repairs and were temporarily unable to fight again.

At the same time as Dian Wei's troops were dispatched, Huang Zhong's troops were dispatched again, heading straight for Daliang.

This situation was obviously intended to confuse the Qin army and mobilize the main force of the Qin army. If the Qin army did not want the newly acquired Wei land to be occupied by Dayu, it must respond in these directions.

It may not take too many troops to be mobilized, but it is indispensable.

And considering the logistical pressure, the mobilized troops must be elite troops.

Qin mobilized more troops and military rations to these places, and it was naturally difficult to take care of other directions.

Dayu used a naked conspiracy this time, and even if the Qin court saw through it, there was nothing it could do.

Who made Qin fight for years and have insufficient granaries and encounter a famine?

Now that Wei is in crisis, it depends on whether you will save it or not?

Qin can only choose to rescue it.

Veteran general Meng Ao led 200,000 troops into Xingyang to fight against Dian Wei's army. At the same time, he sent General Wang Jian to lead 100,000 troops to rescue Daliang by water.

While sending troops to rescue, Lu Buwei also ordered "the people to pay 1,000 stones of millet and be awarded one level of nobility".

The sale of official positions and titles began.

What Lu Buwei did not expect was that this move greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of the war agents, who generously donated money to help them join the Qin army or the Qin bureaucracy to get promoted.

The generosity of the war agents helped Qin recover a wave of blood, but what they did not expect was that someone had quietly recorded all the donors and began to identify the suspected war agents and their subordinates.

The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind!

Dayu has begun to plan how to uproot the war agents in Qin.

After receiving accurate information that Meng Ao, Wang Jian and others had been dispatched, Zhuge Liang, Yue Fei, Jiang Qin and other troops, who had been trained in Yingdu for a long time, went north along the Han River under the command of Jia Xu, thus kicking off the second Battle of Nanjun.
