The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 480

[Chapter 475 Persecution]

Because of the shortage of military supplies, the army of the Ming Dynasty had to step up the attack and attacked the defense line of Yuguo more violently.

This can not only reduce the number of their huge army, so as to reduce the consumption of military rations.

It is even more possible to take advantage of the fact that the Royal Kingdom’s military strength is greatly reduced and the military’s heart is in turmoil to achieve more results.

Just as the Ming Dynasty army launched several waves of ferocious attacks, they were horrified to discover that after the number of people on the opposite side of Yuguo decreased, it became extremely strong, and no matter how they attacked, they did not waver at all.

The commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty, who did not believe in evil, desperately urged his troops to attack several times, but he was still unsuccessful.

In the end, even he had to admit that the opposing defense was indeed countless times stronger than before.

In this way, after more than 100,000 troops were killed and wounded, the morale of the Ming Dynasty troops plummeted and had to rest.

The reason for such a victory was mainly because there were too many leading parties in the previous defense line, and there were many rebels in the Yuguo army, all of whom had their hearts on the opposite Ming Dynasty royal division.

As a result, as soon as these kings arrived at the city, all of them surrendered anyway, which caused the Ming Dynasty army to attack dozens of cities in a month and seized nearly one province.

In fact, it is not surprising to have such a result. The reason why Yuguo quickly lost the city and lost ground in the past was mainly because there were too many traitors in the army. Losing the territory of the eight houses, the situation has greatly deteriorated.

But now these unsettled soldiers have been transferred away, and the rest are soldiers who are loyal to Yuguo. It is naturally very safe to use them to defend the strong city wall.

The war on the front line was slowly stalemate. The two sides came and went. Although the army of the Ming Dynasty had an advantage on the whole, and as the war progressed, it slowly eroded the territory of the Jade Kingdom, but the speed was obviously slowed down. There is no gang of swift and violent just before the war.

At present, the progress of annexing a government’s site for about a month is not slow, but it is not fast either.

Zhong Yu’s imperial kingdom has 83 prefectures, and excluding the nine prefectures previously occupied by the Ming Dynasty, there are still 74 prefectures.

By slowly throwing away one government site a month, Zhong Yu was able to support him for six years.

Even if more and more sites are lost, the speed of the Ming Dynasty will increase significantly, but no matter what, it is possible to last for 34 years.

The war on the front line is going on slowly like this, both sides only maintain the level of the war on the low-level soldiers, and the strongest shot is only the fifth-level.

The respective masters of both sides are like the powerhouses above the sixth rank, and none of them have shot at all. They are all acting as commanders and directing the cannon fodder soldiers to fight.

This is their tacit agreement.

Keep the scale of the war on the body of ordinary people, and do not provoke the respective sixth-order powerhouses, so as not to expand the war to the point where it is difficult to control.

There are fewer sixth-order powerhouses in Daming, and their strength is not Yuguo’s opponent, so they dare not trigger a war above sixth-order.

On the Yuguo side, they were afraid of the eighth-order who did not take action in the Ming Dynasty, and did not dare to lead the battle to the sixth-order. deal with.

In this way, the high-level officials of the two sides are unusually harmonious and maintain a unique tacit understanding.

Even those high-level generals known on both sides of the two sides sometimes invite generals from the opposite army to come out to chat and party, and it is impossible to see that the two sides are in a state of war, and they are enemies of life and death.

However, the high-level people talked happily, but the soldiers at the bottom were caught in dire straits.

Because they are not in danger, but they are under the pressure of orders from the upper level, they must show some achievements, so those generals put their achievements on those soldiers.

What is a merit, of course, is to attack the city on the battlefield, break the army and slaughter the city.

With such a goal, the soldiers at the bottom, driven by the generals, are constantly advancing towards this goal.

Because they have too much power beyond the soldiers, the generals are not afraid of those soldiers’ resistance at all, and their military revolts are useless, and the generals themselves can suppress them with one force.

Most of the soldiers in this world were originally used to maintain law and order, and they were able to deal with those supernatural beings above the sixth rank, but it was only because of the blessing of this formation.

But those who understand these formations are all generals, and the soldiers at the bottom do not know the slightest bit, and being able to use the formations is just obeying military orders, which is completely useless for arranging a formation alone.

What’s more, someone can arrange it, without that prestige, and can integrate enough soldiers to obey the order and let them resist their master.

So the resistance of the soldiers is really useless, and those soldiers don’t dare to resist. They have seen countless killings on the battlefield in the past. Those sixth-order extraordinary powers have long been like gods and demons in their eyes. UU reading www.uukanshu. com can’t give birth to any resistance at all.

Because there is no strength to resist, it is impossible to use one’s own will to force the generals to retreat.

Not wanting to die under military law because of disobedience, those soldiers could only fight hard towards the enemy on the opposite side in order to survive.

Pin your destiny to being able to survive this battle, and then another, until the end of the war.

Therefore, each war between the two sides was extremely tragic, and the death rate reached more than 90%. Basically, it ended with the complete annihilation of the other side.

Time passed slowly.

After half a year of war, Zhong Yu lost the territory of two provinces, and the army of the Ming Dynasty also advanced to the hinterland of Yuguo, put the battlefield in Jiangdong Province, and slowly approached Jiangdu City.

However, here, the Daming army was met with extremely resolute resistance. Every step forward would cost countless lives and costs, and it would take more time.

The capital of a country can easily be surrounded by people, and even troops are under the city.

That would deal a huge blow to a country’s prestige and make its subjects question the country’s strength, thus giving birth to ambitions.

Therefore, looking at the past and present, all countries that can be approached to the capital are basically facing the crisis of national subjugation, and after the capital is lost, the country will not perish, but its vitality will also be greatly damaged, and the national situation will decline, far less than before.

Zhong Yu’s imperial kingdom has only been established for a few years, and the people’s hearts are unstable and the foundation is not strong.

If the enemy is allowed to attack the capital of the country again, the wicked people who were originally suppressed will definitely take the opportunity to jump out and make trouble.

Moreover, being besieged by people in the capital is a very demoralizing thing in itself. Zhong Yu will naturally not let others attack the city easily, and it is normal to arrange heavy troops along the way.
