Chapter 239 Northern Zhao Restoration
"This road goes directly from the belly of the mountain... There are 18 fork roads, and only one can pass through the mountains here... After crossing, it is the border of the State of Southern Chu."
Listening to Guan Yun's words, Fang Rui nodded and bypassed from Southern Chu. Although the journey was farther, it was nothing at Fang Rui's feet. The key is that Southern Chu was the last country to be fought in the Western Qin Dynasty. Although there were many garrisons in it, it was relatively chaotic, unlike Western Wei, Northern Zhao and Northern Yan, which had been occupied by Southern Chu. In two or three years, it has been well organized, and it will be more difficult to take advantage of the loopholes.
At least as Fang Rui knows the information, the transmission array and air prohibition array of Western Wei, Northern Zhao and Beiyan have almost been completed, and it is difficult for outsiders to sneak in, especially on the way from the direction of Eastern Qi, which is more closely defended.
Xiqin likes to fight strangely, so he naturally guards his rear more closely.
Then it is much more convenient to pass from the southern Chu side, and from the Western Wei side, and then to the Northern Zhao, the other party will be less vigilant.
After drawing a map for Fang Rui, Guan Yun hurriedly entered the Qingxu Cave. After passing here, he arrived at Nanchu. That is to say, he may meet the enemy at any time. Guan Yun doesn't want to be a burden for Fang Rui.
When Guan Yun returned to Qingxu Cave, the Dongqi monks in Qingxu Cave knew that this was a really difficult time.
In the next time, Fang Rui will cross the long border alone, from Eastern Qi to Southern Chu, from Southern Chu to Western Wei, and then from Western Wei to Northern Zhao. This is the time when they play a role.
During this period, they can only wait here, practice, and pray that Fang Rui will not be found.
With the strength of the Western Qin Dynasty, it can be done with only a cup of tea. At that time, whether the Western Qin army in front of it knew that 30% of the masters in Dongqi had left, and directly waved their troops to attack Dongqi, or sent several nine-grade masters back to pester Fang Rui. Dongqi's failure has been It has become a fore.
At this time, Ji Renfeng completely calmed down. He closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, and a large amount of earth atmosphere poured into his body. He gradually analyzed the characteristics of heaven and earth and tried to mix himself with heaven and earth.
Listening to Yu Shang and Ji Shaowei looking at each other, they saw relief in each other's eyes.
Ji Renfeng broke through to the free period, which not only added a combat power, but also laid a solid foundation for the next development of Dongqi!
Fang Rui has now crossed the mountains at the junction of Eastern Qi and Southern Chu.
Although it is claimed that there are 18 fork roads, Fang Rui passed easily when Guan Yun pointed out the road.
In the chat with Guan Yun, Fang Rui also knew why Guan Yun knew the path here.
To put it bluntly, it also has something to do with himself. It turned out that he was first practiced by demons, and then chased by Huang's parents, Guan Yun felt that he was unlucky, so he left the Yunwu Mountains where he was used to robbing and came to the mountains at the border with Southern Chu. Although the two sides confront each other, it was that There are only heavy troops stationed in several key passes. In other vast mountains, there is almost no military power. On the contrary, there are many young monks who come to trial...
After arriving here, Guan Yun was like a fish in water and robbed some good scattered cultivation or young family children. Not only from Dongqi, but also from Nanchu.
With the help of the art of concealment, Guan Yun ran here and there for a while, and lived a very comfortable life.
Unfortunately, after the beginning of the National War, Guan Yun was not so nourished. No matter how bold he was, he did not dare to rob under the control of the military. He could only run back to the interior and meet the rebels of the Hong family and the Qiao family. He could only stay in a village and then enter the Qingxu Cave together...
Thinking of Guan Yun's experience during this period, Fang Rui felt funny - this thief is also quite predestined with himself, and now he has joined the Fang family and is also his own person.
After drilling out of the mountains, Fang Rui looked around and quickly turned into a light. At the same time, he hid his breath and flew quickly in the direction of Western Wei.
Western Wei was once a big country and was in the land of four wars. Unfortunately, when the national war just started, they were fighting with Northern Zhao so happily that they were attacked by Wang Jian's army and were defeated.
The capital of the Western Wei Dynasty is also a good military base, but unfortunately it does not represent the strength of the Western Wei, otherwise it is not bad to occupy the Liang.
After coming to the Western Wei border, Fang Rui could no longer fly. Even the forbidden air arrays that can be seen everywhere in the air are very troubled by him.
The teleport array was taken care of by the heavy soldiers of the Western Qin Dynasty, and he could not use this to move forward. Fang Rui could only fall to the ground, walk in the wilderness, and move towards North Zhao.
Fortunately, Fang Rui also did his homework when repairing the space before. The route of the Eastern Continent was remembered by him, bypassing the important route, and was not a matter of being discovered by the Western Qin army.
Fang Rui flew from Southern Chu to Western Wei only took half a day, but it took Fang Rui two days to travel through Western Wei - after all, there is still a huge difference between running around in circles and flying in a straight line...
Fang Rui is also a little anxious. After all, 30% of the high-end power of Dongqi is now in the Qingxu Cave, and the power to guard the land of Dongqi has been weakened a lot. If it is discovered by the Western Qin army, it will be too late for him to take down Linzi with the momentum of destruction.
With 30% of the high-end power, it's okay to hide it for a period of time. After a long time, the problem will definitely be found by the other party. After all, the high-end power of both sides has always been dealing with each other. Without a few important people, it is impossible for others not to find it.
So now Fang Rui is racing against time.
He could not run without worries. He had to avoid the other party's army, and then suddenly led a large army to appear outside Handan City, quickly took Handan, raised the flag of Northern Zhao, collected the defeat of Northern Zhao, and expanded the scale of his territory.
In this way, it is useless for the Western Qin army to take down Linzi - because they want to occupy five king cities to unify the Eastern Continent.
Quick, fast, fast!
Fang Rui has such an idea in his mind.
Finally, five days after leaving the Dongqi camp, Fang Rui arrived in Handan, the king city of Northern Zhao!
Of course, it is the former North Zhao Wangcheng Handan.
Handan City, as the royal city of Northern Zhao, is also a towering and majestic city. Its scale is not below Linzi, but Northern Zhao is not good at defending, so it was Bai Qi's plan in the army of iron cavalry, trapped on the battlefield, and then the empty royal city was easily taken down.
Now, Fang Rui appears outside Handan City.
The people guarding Handan City are the children of the Li family in the eight families of the Western Qin Dynasty.
As a royal city, Western Qin naturally knew the meaning of this capital, and they already knew the information that the remnants of Northern Zhao soldiers joined the Eastern Qi army, otherwise they would not have set a trap. They almost made dumplings for Zhao Wushuang's people and stationed 50,000 troops here, composed of a six-grade Li family. The leader is responsible for continuously transmitting the resources sent from the rear to the front line through the transmission array.
Zhao Wushuang looked at Handan from afar and had mixed feelings.
This is her royal city.
As one of the excellent children of the Zhao family, their feelings for Handan are naturally not comparable to those of ordinary people.
"There are 50,000 defenders in Handan. Although they are all reserve troops, there are only hundreds of monks in the Longevity period, and the others are monks in the Dadao period, but we can't underestimate them... We should defeat them in the shortest time, take back the royal city, and then raise the flag to recruit those Northern Zhao soldiers who can still participate in the war, while the Western Qin army is not When there is a reaction, recover a large number of lost land, so that the strategic goal can be achieved. Ji Renfeng said.
Zhao Wushuang nodded and pointed to a map.
"There are six cities around Handan. We need to occupy all of them, take Handan first, and then divide our troops to take these six cities, especially Changping and Shangdang, which are dangerous places. Our Northern Zhao army was besieged between Changping and Shangdang. After the fall of Wangcheng, many people scattered around there, as long as we Flag, they will definitely come and throw it. Zhao Wushuang affirmed.
"That's it. Let's first take Handan with the momentum of thunder, capture all the defenders here, and then divide our troops to take the other six cities."
Fang Rui nodded.
The war between monks is more strategic, but there is nothing to discuss in terms of tactics.
If the strength is strong, the strength is weak, and no matter how exquisite the tactics are, it is useless.
So when Handan Shou saw the sudden appearance of the army in all directions of the city, he only had time to do one thing - that is, to close the gate...
However, is it useful? No.
Ji Renfeng divided 100,000 guards into 60,000, divided into two parts, one led by Ji Ning and the other led by Ji Hua, attacking the South Gate and the West Gate respectively.
Ji Qingfeng led the children of the Fang family and Yan Hui's assassins to attack the north gate.
Zhao Wushuang led 30,000 iron riders under her command to attack the East Gate!
A attack broke through the city of Handan.
It's not that Handan's defensive strength is too weak, but that the forces of the two sides are not equal - 50,000 defenders, only hundreds of monks in the era of perpetence, and the rest are monks in the Dadao period, who can't lead the six-grade cultivation, but what about the opponent? Looking at more than a dozen free monks floating in the air, the defenders almost lost the courage to resist...
If it were the regular army of the Western Qin Dynasty, it would not be like this. Even if they are at a disadvantage, they will fight to the end, but this army is just a domestic reserve army, and it is too far behind in terms of fighting will...
On the one hand, the strength is superior and unexpected, and on the other hand, the strength is at an absolute disadvantage, which is still caught off guard. The consequences can be imagined.
An hour later, Zhao Wushuang stepped into the center of Handan.
None of the 50,000 Western Qin defenders escaped - they were all captured, and when they were captured, they had lost the right to continue fighting, and they could not even exchange information with people.
"If the army is annihilated here, then our next action will be beneficial. Please ask Princess Wushuang to lead the headquarters to take the two cities of Changping and Shangdang, and we will be responsible for taking the other four cities." Ji Renfeng said to Zhao Wushuang.
Zhao Wushuang also knew that this was not the time to be sad. He nodded, nodded his iron horse and roared away.
The largest military force nearby is the garrison of Handan. Other cities are no more than 10,000 defenders. Under the attack of Zhao Wushuang, it is very simple to take it.
In less than two days, Handan and the six surrounding cities all fell, and Zhao Wushuang raised the banner of Zhao and announced the success of the restoration of Northern Zhao!
The news was quickly transmitted to the whole territory of Northern Zhao.
Near Changping, a powerful man who was drinking muffledly kicked over the case in front of him after hearing the news.
"Children, pass on my order from Li Mu. Gather together and let's go to Changping to see the princess!"
With Li Mu's roar, there were countless loud roars in the villages.
