The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 438

[Chapter 433: The Legend of the World]

“Now I have more than 100,000 troops in hand, but there are only 20,000 to 30,000 remnants on the opposite side. It’s not difficult to win.”

Zhong Yu couldn’t help but nodded when he thought of the current situation in Dongjiang Province.

Sure enough, he didn’t waste half a year of waiting, and finally got such a good opportunity.

If Zhong Yu had just come to this world, when the Yellow Mountain Demon King had just emerged, the power of the imperial court had not been exhausted, and both sides had enough energy to fight, it would definitely not be as easy as it is now.

In the past half year, when the two sides fought the most fiercely, each had more than 50,000 soldiers and horses, and there was a steady stream of reinforcements arriving. It can be said that a protracted war can be fought, and a frontal battle can also be fought. It is not so easy to deal with. of.

With the mere 110,000 soldiers and horses under Zhong Yu’s command alone, although it was not impossible to suppress both sides, the final result was not very good. More than 100,000 people could be left with 20,000 or 30,000. There was a Yellow Mountain Demon King. The treatment is good.

You must know that no matter when human beings are, they are fighting insiders and outsiders.

If Zhong Yu appeared at the beginning, the army representing the imperial court would definitely regard it as the primary target and would suppress it mercilessly.

It doesn’t matter if the demon clan grabs some territory, because the imperial court knows the reputation of the demon clan and the fundamental racial difference, and it is impossible to annex too much territory from the imperial court.

But if you replace it with the human race, it will be different.

The same race, strong strength, and reputation for saving people from water and fire can definitely attract a considerable number of people to come to seek refuge. It’s a real heartbreaker.

On the other hand, in order to avoid the variables, the demon clan will choose to suppress it first, or simply stand by and plan to be a fisherman.

But now he has been a tortoise for half a year, sitting and watching the demon clan and the imperial court battered, and finally both sides were injured, and they reached a peace agreement without being able to fight.

In the end, there were only a few remnants of defeated soldiers left on the two sides, and the total number of soldiers and horses was no more than 60,000 or 70,000. How could they have enough strength to stop Zhong Yu’s aggression.

Now that the plan has been decided and the preparations are sufficient, the big thing is done.

…

a year of Shen Yuan.

(Zhong Yu’s first year in this world is counted, and calling Shen Yuan is a symbol of his determination to become a god. This world will definitely break through the limit of the eighth order.)

Soon after Zhong Yu took control of Hecheng County, he launched an army of 10 Wanbei expedition the demon clan, and sent a letter to the surrounding provinces. The Ming Dynasty’s bad deeds of betraying the human race and the incompetence of defending the land led to the fall of the four prefectures in the eastern part of Dongjiang Province, and countless Li people were slaughtered by the demon clan.

He also rebuked the Yaozu for their audacity, daring to invade the territory of the human race, and committed unforgivable sins.

This Northern Expedition must exterminate all the monsters to show that the glory of the human race cannot be offended.

After this oath spread throughout the four surrounding provinces, it caused a shocking wave.

Although the Ming Dynasty was at the end of the dynasty, the signs of decay and turmoil were gradually seen, but no matter who it was, whether it was inside or outside the Ming Dynasty, it was believed that the Ming Dynasty should be destroyed by the hands of a surrounding powerful country.

As for the other ordinary rogues, even if they had momentum for a while, they were not the opponents of the imperial court.

The difference between the two is too great.

The imperial court has a real immortal in charge, that kind of incomparable power, with a wave of a hand, it can erode the surrounding hundreds of miles, and with a single blow, 100,000 troops can be wiped out.

Even if ordinary rogues have fifth-order or even sixth-order ranks, they are not worth mentioning compared to eighth-order immortals.

So when the surrounding people saw this letter, except for a few people who showed anticipation, most of them regarded it as a joke, as if they saw a clown jumping from a beam.

However, those who have this kind of thinking are all provincial capitals outside Dongjiang Province that have not been affected by the turmoil of the demon clan.

In the real Dongjiang Province, whether it is the state capital in the demon-controlled area or the prefecture and county in the imperial-controlled area, the eyes of the people at the bottom are all bright, and they are looking forward to this rebel army.

These people at the bottom are fed up with the suffering of the demon clan. Because of the appearance of the demon clan, not only did the taxes on their heads increase several times because of the frequent increase of the army, but even their lives could not be guaranteed. Often a small team of demons crossed the border and went deep into the country. The hinterland slaughtered the population.

After the expected imperial army disappointed them and reached a peace with the demon clan, they no longer trusted the imperial court.

Especially in the four eastern provinces, the Daming survivors who fell into the hands of the demon clan, their hatred for the Daming Dynasty can be said to be difficult to wash away.

Under such circumstances, someone suddenly came forward and said that he would lead them, drive away the demon clan together, and rescue them from the fire and water, and what would happen, it was predictable.

It is also indescribable to eat the pot of pulp to welcome Master Wang.

In particular, Guide Mansion, where Hecheng County was located, was located in the same area as the army, and because it was in the rear, the demon power here was the most vulnerable.

Let me talk about the military distribution of the Yellow Mountain Demon King here.

As I said before, the Yellow Mountain Demon King has only 30,000 demon soldiers left, and the strength can be weakened.

Under such circumstances, he must not only defend and control the vast area, but also be on guard against the attacking troops of the Ming court.

Among the 30,000 demon soldiers, 15,000 were distributed on the front line to guard against the attack of the imperial court.

Once again, 10,000 people were stationed in Guidefu City, sitting in the center of the town to support the surrounding areas.

The last 5,000 were distributed among the remaining five counties, with a thousand troops in each county, no more, no less.

Such a thousand people are naturally enough to deal with the various counties whose elites have been exhausted and consumed on the battlefield.

But if you face the 100,000 army that rushed towards them, it would be a joke.

The letter was released on the same day as the expedition. After all, this is a war, and the emphasis is on speed and efficiency. It is impossible to spread the word all over the world before the war starts, saying that I am going to fight you, so that you are ready, and then Another decent fight.

This is a brainless, a waste of time not to mention, but also destroys the livelihood of the people in the combat area, damages their own strength, and is not taken by the wise.

Speed battles are king.

It was only three days after the expedition. Because they were all troops with internal strength, they could be said to be extremely fast in terms of rushing. It may not be enough to travel thousands of miles a day, but it is completely feasible to travel hundreds of miles or even farther.

On the way, the vanguard of the army passed through the two counties of Xiayi and Yucheng. There were very few defenders in the county, but only a thousand people. In addition, the rear defense at the back was extremely negligent, and they won the battle in one battle.

In the cheers of the people in the city, the army belonging to the human race once again stepped into the two county towns and restored the dominance of the human race.
