Cultivation in the Family: Everyone is a villain

January 15th, 1333 in the New Yu Calendar

Dongyuan Road, Shunkang Fucheng.

The blood energy breaks through the sky and stains the clouds. The earth seems to be covered with a dark blanket. The air is full of the smell of blood. Broken limbs and broken arms can be seen everywhere. Occasionally, a relatively healthy body has been killed by an unknown crow and magpie.

While nibbling, some miniature mountain wild animals were swimming around, enjoying this gluttonous feast.

While these wild animals are eating to their heart's content, they are greedily absorbing the bloody resentment on the battlefield. I don't know how many of them will become monsters and how many of them will become demons in the end.

"Clean the battlefield and station troops at Shunkang Mansion for ten days!"

A high-pitched voice sounded in the sky above Fucheng. Fucheng, which had been quiet just now, suddenly heard the sound of a surging crowd. Within a moment, groups of soldiers came out of the four city gates and began to clean around the city gates.

These soldiers were all dressed in black gold armor, with blood stains on their cheeks, armor, and blades. Their faces were sharp and their bodies were tense. It was obvious at a glance that they had just experienced a bloody battle.

Shunkang Fucheng, Fotai Hall

More than twenty generals wearing armor and stomach were sitting on the left and right, and further ahead were the three kings Yuzhao, Xikang, and Lingyun. At the top of the hall, Emperor Wanyan Cheng of Yuliang stood up with a wine glass in his hand.

The military advisor Li Su next to him glanced at it, then turned to face the generals and laughed loudly:

"Thanks to all of you who fought hard and fought hard to capture the city of Sunkang Prefecture. So far, only silver and jade are left. The two Baekje Prefectures are still in the hands of the alliance. As soon as the second prefecture is captured, the entire territory of Dongwon Road will be in the hands of our Great Jin Dynasty. I respect you.

A drink for you all!”

"It is our duty to die for the holy dynasty."

"The emperor's hard work has made great achievements, but the general will not dare to take the credit."

"Your Majesty, please!"

The blood energy on the bodies of more than twenty generals had not yet dissipated. It seemed that they had worked too hard in the previous battle, and their cultivation levels were obviously not yet fully recovered. When they stood up and spoke, the sound was like thunder, which could be heard for several miles outside the hall.

After all the generals finished drinking the wine in their cups, Lingyun King Tuoba Xiong laughed heartily and said loudly: "In this battle, our Jin Dynasty killed more than 300,000 enemies. Although it did not damage the foundation of the alliance, it was enough to make them scared.

Well, the terrain of Eunyu Mansion is flat, which is more suitable for a large army to attack. As long as Zhao Yulong and the others are not stupid and will not choose to fight with us in Enyu, they will retreat directly to Baekje Mansion. In this way, the five prefectures of Dongyuan Road

, we should have already won four mansions, and the remaining one is just around the corner!"

"Yes, Zhao Yulong is old and weak. Although he has the status of a saint, it is difficult to fight with the emperor for a long time. Although the alliance has tens of millions of troops, they come from all the major holy places from all over the world. They all fight independently and it is difficult to coordinate. How can they fight with me?

Compared with the powerful army of the Jin Dynasty, if you fight stubbornly in a corner, you will die."

"First take Dongyuan, then go down to Nanjiang, and capture Zhongzhou. Then we can take advantage of the situation and invade Jizhou. What kind of anti-Jin alliance is just a bunch of chickens and dogs in front of the powerful army of our Holy Dynasty, and they are vulnerable to a single blow!

"

……………

Having just captured Shungang Prefecture, the generals were already very excited. After hearing King Lingyun's words, they all echoed their words with excitement and excitement. They wished they could capture Eunyu and Baekje immediately and unify Dongyuan Road.

The troops marched to Nanjiang.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Wanyan Cheng lowered his head and chuckled twice, but did not stop him. In fact, even he was a little surprised to be able to capture Sunchang City from Zhao Yulong so smoothly.

Wanyan Jun took away an army of two million, and there were only ten million holy soldiers left under his command. The remaining three million were pieced together from three directions. They were said to be a large army, but everyone knew that he wanted them to perform.

It is almost impossible to achieve any big effect.

The Alliance also has an army of 10 million, which is actually comparable to him in strength. If Zhao Yulong has been hiding in Sunchang City, he really has no other choice but to attack the city.

He did try to attack the city several times, but without exception, the results were not very good. Not to mention breaking the city, he did not gain much, and even a few times, the casualties were more than those of the alliance.

The strength of the Jin army is that although all the soldiers belong to different princes, in the end they are all soldiers of the same family. They have been trained in coordinated operations before. On this point alone, it is better than the alliance who fight from the major holy places.

Nishi Minato's tens of millions of troops are much stronger, and it is unforgivable to suffer more casualties than the alliance.

Attacking the city failed, and Wanyan Cheng couldn't think of any other good way.

Fortunately, military advisor Li Su came up with an idea at this time.

Li Su judged that the alliance army wanted to cooperate with the three coalition forces that were heading north from Linjiang Road, but would not allow them to separate their troops, so he suggested that he send a large army to cheat and lure the alliance army out of the city.

Wanyan Cheng accepted this suggestion. It happened that he also wanted to transfer Wanyan Jun, the king of Pingcheng, so he asked Wanyan Jun to perform a play with him before leaving with an army of two million.

Sure enough, as soon as Wanyan Jun led an army of two million to move, the alliance army in Shunkang Mansion City moved. In that battle, the Jin Dynasty did not gain much, but it allowed Wanyan Cheng to understand Zhao Yulong's psychology.

.

Zhao Yulong really wanted to drag his 13 million troops with him, wait for Hou Yuxiao's three coalition forces to come up from Jiuhua Road, and then attack him from east to west, so as soon as he showed signs of retreat, Zhao Yulong would immediately

He will follow and not allow his army to withdraw.

With this premise, Wanyan Cheng knew what to do.

The ninth day of January in the year 1333 of the New Yu Calendar

He evacuated all the military tents outside Shunkang Prefecture City. The army pretended to retreat to Jiuhua Road, but secretly placed the front army at the rear and made preparations for counterattack in advance. The army withdrew for half a day and left Shunkang Prefecture City.

It was already nearly thirty miles away.

Sure enough, Zhao Yulong couldn't bear it anymore.

The alliance army came out in full force, and the result was naturally that they fell into a trap!

At the head of three million miscellaneous troops, tens of millions of holy troops counterattacked fiercely. Zhao Yulong's subordinate Ya Sheng used all his power to resist desperately with nine million troops, but failed to turn the tide of the battle. Not only were more than three hundred thousand troops killed,

Even Shunkang Fucheng, which had held on for more than a month, was defeated.

The harvest of more than 300,000 yuan seems small compared to the combined military strength of both sides, which totaled more than 20 million yuan. However, only those who have actually participated in the war know that more than 300,000 yuan is already a huge harvest.

Tens of millions of troops, even if they stand still, are boundless across the mountains and plains. It is almost impossible for such a large number of troops to fight together without a month or two of effort.

They would like to divide their troops, but the problem is that once they divide their troops, it means that their ability to control the blood pressure will be weakened, which is very fatal to the martial arts masters in their respective camps, so dividing their troops will not work.

Even if it takes a month or two, there is nothing we can do.

And they had only been fighting for five days.

In fact, only the two to three million men of the front army were actually engaged in the battle. Calculating this, the gains of more than 300,000 were not small.

The alliance's tens of millions of troops lost more than 100,000 in the battle of Pingyuan Fucheng. Adding this loss, Zhao Yulong only had 9.5 million troops left under his command. In comparison, one of his troops

The army of 12 million people lost no more than tens of thousands, and the ones who died the most were the 3 million warriors who were cobbled together from Gyeonggi, Lincang, and Shuofeng.

Under the circumstances, the alliance is not far away from failure.

The most important purpose of the so-called Eastern Expedition is of course to occupy the land of Jizhou, but before that, it is crucial to weaken the alliance's strength. Everything they are doing now is precisely for this purpose.

Wanyan Cheng cleared his mind. Thinking of this great victory, he suddenly had some respect for Li Su. Among Zhuge Yuan's three disciples, he had the deepest impression of Sima Yan. Originally, he wanted to go out on this expedition.

Sima Yan wanted to join the army, but was rejected by the imperial advisor and sent his second disciple Li Su over. He had some objections in his heart.

Now, the opinions in my heart have been eliminated.

"military adviser………"

Wanyan Cheng was about to praise Li Su a few words, but when he turned his head, he found that Li Su was sitting on a chair, looking at the map of the north behind him with a frown, and he was suddenly stunned.

"Commander, something is on your mind?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, all the generals in the hall immediately fell silent.

Everyone turned to look at Li Su. Only then did they realize that Li Su's expression was a little out of place with the festive atmosphere in the hall, and they all suddenly looked curious.

Yuzhao Wang Helianting followed Li Su's eyes and found that he was looking at the map, and guessed: "Is the military advisor worried about Hexi?"

"Emperor Youye has led his army to fight against Jing Tianyu. In two months, they have fought from Jianye to Xingnan Prefecture. Jing Tianyu's seven million army has been retreating steadily. It is certain that they will be driven out of Hexi. It still takes a long time.

Should we be worried?" Lingyun King Tuoba Xiong immediately answered.

Only Helianchang, the king of Xikang, understood something in Li Su's eyes and asked softly: "Commander Li, are you worried about Wanyan Jun, the king of Pingcheng?"

………

King Pingcheng, Wan Yanjun?

Seeing Li Su turn his head, the generals in the hall immediately knew that He Lianchang had guessed correctly. Wanyan Cheng frowned slightly, turned to look at the map, and said in a deep voice: "Didn't Wanyan Jun have already sent a message back? Hou Yuxiao

He was so bold that he led an army of two million red flames in an attempt to attack Hulao. He himself led all the masters to Hulao in advance, and ordered King Yucheng to lead three princes and eight princes with a total of more than five million troops to rush there.

Those two million Red Flame Army are already a turtle in a urn, what else is there to worry about?"

"Yes, although Hou Yuxiao is a bit quick-witted, he is still from a humble background and has too little experience. With only two million Red Flame troops, he wants to break through the most powerful pass in the world, Hulao Pass. It is simply a fantasy. Wanyan Jun can actually do it.

Worrying that he really poses a threat to Hulao Pass, it is ridiculous to bring a group of experts there. Hulao Pass is so strong, and Zuo Qiuyuan leads a million troops to guard it. Even if the force is three, four, or even five times, it will not

It is difficult to break through, how can it be possible for Hou Yuxiao!"

"If Wanyan Jun was smarter, he should inform Zuo Qiuyuan, lead the army out of Hulao, attack from east to west with King Yucheng's army of more than five million, and strangle Hou's two million Red Flame Army in Cangyuan Mountain

.”

"Hou Yuxiao does have some thoughts. It's a pity that he chose the bad move of attacking Hulao. He just led his army to stay in Junyang Fucheng and held it for a period of time. It was of great help to the alliance. It's a pity that he was too ambitious to attack Hulao.

, Tsk tsk, it’s hard to escape death..."

"It's okay for Lu Kangping. In my opinion, it's Madman Chu and Hou Yuxiao. These two are arrogant people. If they get mixed together, they will inevitably think highly of themselves and forget their own surnames. The two hundred people of the Hou family

Wan Dajun is not enough for me in Jin Dynasty. After all, I come from a humble background and have never seen the world. I think I am invincible. It is understandable that I am stingy!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha………"

……………

The laughter of the generals in the hall was very hearty now, but in fact, when the news came back that the three coalition forces did not enter Jiuhua Road, but diverted to attack Junyang Fucheng, they were more frightened than anyone else.

stunned.

At first, everyone thought that the 13 million coalition forces of the three families would go north through Jiuhua Road to Dongyuan Road and join forces with the alliance army to attack them.

Unexpectedly, Hou Yuxiao did not do this, but sent two million Red Flame troops to take a detour to Lincang Road alone, and even attacked Junyang Fucheng.

After attacking Junyang Fucheng, it’s time to attack Lincang Daocheng.

Unexpectedly, Hou Yuxiao did not do this, but changed his route to attack Hulao Pass. The first two steps more or less shocked the generals in the hall, but only this third step, attacking Hulao Pass, shocked the generals in the hall.

It made them feel completely relaxed.

With an army of two million, it is simply a dream to break through Hulao Pass.

In their opinion, Hou Yuxiao made such a choice because, firstly, he was trying to surprise the alliance, providing greater help to the alliance, and at the same time gaining more capital for the three families; secondly, it was because Hou Yuxiao was born in a humble background and had too little knowledge.

, simply cannot understand the significance of Hulao Pass being called the most majestic pass in the world.

From the moment Hou Yuxiao led his two million Red Flame Army to change their route to Cangyuan Mountain, it was doomed that the Lord of Hexi, who had become famous in China in the past ten years, would fail.

King Yucheng's army of more than five million, plus Zuo Qiuyuan's army of one million in Hulao Pass, will definitely defeat Hou Yuxiao. Even if he can run, he has worked hard to cultivate it for so many years, and finally he can

The two million red flame troops that were pulled up will also disappear into thin air.

With the two million Red Flame Army gone, Hexi will completely lose its qualifications to compete with the Holy Land. By then, neither the Jin nor the Alliance will take Hexi seriously.

Therefore, they have no idea what Li Su is worried about.

"wrong!"

Li Su seemed to have suddenly figured out something, and suddenly stood up from the chair. He stared at Hulao Pass, and a trace of panic and fear gradually flashed in his eyes.

"Military advisor, what's wrong?"

Wanyan Cheng's tone also became serious. He realized that Li Su must have seen something important. The question was, what other important things could happen now to make Li Su look like this?

"Two million Red Flame troops attacked Junyang Fucheng. They were led by Hou Yucheng and Hou Yujie. What Wanyan Jun encountered at the foot of Cangyuan Mountain was Hou Yuxiao, Chu Kuangren and Lu Kangping. Why is this?"

Hearing Li Su's inquiry, Wanyan Cheng's expression condensed and he said, "Why else? Hou Yuxiao also knows that Hulao Pass is difficult to defeat, so he wants to personally take Kuangren Chu and Lu Kangping with him..."

Wanyan Cheng realized something and suddenly stopped, his expression stunned.

The other generals also suddenly came to their senses, with shocked expressions on their faces.

Hou Yuxiao also knows...Hulao Pass...is difficult to defeat...

"Hulao Pass is difficult to defeat. Hou Yuxiao knew it very well. He didn't go to defeat Hulao Pass at all. Instead, he deliberately led Chu Madman, Lu Kangping, to make Wanyanjun mistakenly think that he really wanted to defeat Hulao Pass.

"Li Su's voice suddenly became much heavier, and his face became increasingly ugly.

"That's wrong! Wanyan Jun said that he saw the red cloud of Qi and Blood with his own eyes. The two million Red Flame Army must be in Cangyuan Mountain and heading towards Hulao Pass?"

"There are 13 million in the three coalition armies. Except for the Hou family's 2 million Red Flame Army, the other 11 million are all heavenly armies. It is not difficult at all for sheep to pretend to be a holy army..."

"Impossible. If it were an ordinary army, how could it possibly defeat Junyang City, which was guarded by Tuoba Tao and his 500,000 wolf-slaying guards?"

Li Su's voice was determined, and when he turned around, his tone was a little sinister:

"The ones who attacked Junyang City were of course the two million Red Flame Army. The problem was that they took a detour into Lincang Road. They were not the only ones. Hou Yuxiao had already arranged two large armies in advance. After capturing Junyang City, he divided his forces.

Have you forgotten? Wanyan Jun doesn’t know the marching trail of his army at all, nor does he know their specific number.”

Everyone suddenly looked up at the map, their expressions suddenly changed.

"Wanyan Jun is heading towards Hulao Pass with an army of more than five million men. Hou Yuxiao must have secretly taken a detour to Lincang Road. What is he going to do..."

Wanyan Cheng suddenly stood up from the chair, turned around and stared at Shuofeng, Lincang, and Gyeonggi Province controlled by Dajin. Finally, his eyes slowly settled on Gyeonggi Province, and his expression gradually became distorted.

"Hou Yuxiao, we want to attack the capital of gods!"

Li Su's seven words were like a huge boulder, which instantly hit the hall, including Wanyan Cheng, and the hearts of everyone in the hall were suddenly agitated.
