Spring of the ninth year of Ping'an.
Xuzhou.
Ever since Huang Jie's rebellion and Dazhou's relocation of the capital, Xuzhou was also in chaos.
The war between several military towns was also mixed in with the power struggles of the dukes of the imperial court. Even the feudal vassals of the world had arranged a secret plan. They did not want one side to gain the upper hand, so a delicate balance was barely maintained.
But at this time, a strong neighbor had already risen nearby, eyeing covetously.
Prince Ding, Wu Zhi!
As a woman, this person had conquered two provinces, pursued the world, and rose to become the number one feudal vassal in the world. The speed of the development of her power had really surprised many of the old feudal vassals.
At this time, by relying on the advantage of being the first to attack, Prince Ding's army finally killed their way into Xu Province like a sudden clap of thunder that left no time for covering one's ears. Moreover, under the banner of rescuing the Emperor, the vanguard of the army was surprisingly directed towards the Imperial Court, causing the entire world to be shocked and all the feudal vassals to be shaken.
...
Pingling County.
"As long as we pass the Dragon Lock Pass in front of us, it will be a boundless plain. The cavalry can go straight to the capital, and the mountains and rivers will be in sight!"
Ceng Yu whipped his horse, looking excited.
Until now, his intentions for the Lord began to be revealed in front of the people of the world.
But no matter how flustered and exasperated the feudal vassals were, they could not react in time, let alone help.
"His Majesty's army is one hundred and fifty thousand, but it is said to be three hundred thousand. His strength is the number one in the world. Along the way, all the counties have surrendered. Only here, with the cooperation of the three military towns and the support of various parties, has gathered a hundred thousand soldiers, claiming to be two hundred thousand, to defend the Dragon Lock Pass!"
Ceng Yu sighed in his heart. "This is a tough battle. If we succeed, the gates of the capital will be completely opened, and there will be no room for resistance."
He looked at the dense army formation in the distance, like a dark cloud, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
At this time, the dull sound of a bugle horn sounded. He shook his head and returned to his own army formation.
"Gongshu Ao, you have done well with the iron armor, tortoise shell, and other ships. This time, you have presented many sharp weapons to break the city and plunder the land. Nothing has gone wrong. I will remember your merit!"
In front of the military tent, Wu Zhi looked at the commander of the Gongshu family in front of him, the current head of the Ministry of Works, with a satisfied expression on his face.
"How can mere machinery compare to the might of His Majesty?"
Gongshu Ao, who originally wanted Wu Ming to personally invite him and even used all sorts of excuses, now had a solemn expression on his face. He respectfully bowed down and said, "The sky has the sun and moon, and yin and yang rotate. This is common sense. Your Majesty has Yin Virtue and should rule the world!"
After Wu Zhi took Dingzhou, the Gongshu family had abruptly made up their minds to completely side with him.
Although these skilled craftsmen weren't good in other areas, they were able to bring out the best in the Ministry of Works, be it in the construction of projects or the manufacture of ordnance.
In particular, when Wu Ming casually took out a few blueprints, this group of people could immediately materialize them and improve them, which made him very satisfied.
The Mohist's mechanisms were too advanced and the materials used were precious. They were not consumables that could be used in a war.
However, the things that Wu Ming personally designed were a combination of his previous life and the practical experience of many worlds. On the basis of using the simplest materials, it retained the greatest destructive power. It could be said to be the most practical weapon on the battlefield. Earlier, the defeat of Ma Meng's navy was a small demonstration.
At this time, the Gongshu family was racking their brains and starting to find a theoretical basis for the female lead to appear in court. This was also a move to curry favor.
Seeing Wu Zhi happily nod his head, Gongshu Ao continued, "The Ministry of Works has already supervised the manufacture of a sufficient number of counterweights, catapults, ladders, arrow platforms, and other things. I have made improvements, and their performance has greatly increased. Even if the enemy is defending the pass, they have nothing to fear. However, they dare to leave the city to fight in the open. This is crazy. They have been shocked by His Majesty's might, and their fate is in chaos. This time, we will definitely defeat the enemy in one move!"
"They have no choice. After all, there are three military towns, and who knows how many hidden powers!"
Wu Zhi looked at the military formation in the distance, and a trace of mockery appeared at the corners of her pretty lips.
The most taboo in the art of commanding an army was to give out different orders! She had a deep understanding of this point.
Even when she led the Dingzhou army before, because of the power of her family and other aristocratic families mixed in, she couldn't use it as she wished.
Only after organizing the Spiritual State Army, gathering the old and the weak into the fields, and transferring the strong to train, did they become united, and only recognized her as the King. Only then could she command them with ease.
Naturally, this was because these refugees were scattered, and there were no clans or aristocratic families connecting them to form a small circle. It was easy to draw on a blank piece of paper.
After vaguely realizing this, Wu Zhi immediately increased the importance of the 50,000 Spiritual State Army. At this time, they could suppress the original Dingzhou Army with their strength. Recently, he felt that he was more and more powerful, and his fate was more stable.
On the other side, there were three military towns, and no one knew how many forces were involved. What else could he say when he gave out multiple orders?
On the other hand, there were 100,000 soldiers, and how many people and horses would be consumed?
Even if Wu Zhi supported them with the power of two states, it was still shocking. The enemy gathered, Xuzhou was broken, and the logistics and supplies were even worse.
At this time, it was reasonable to ask for a battle in a hurry.
"Prepare to meet the enemy!"
This was a heaven-sent opportunity, and Wu Zhi would certainly not miss it. He directly passed down the military order.
"Victory!" "Victory!" "Victory!" "Victory!"
The three armies cheered, and their momentum suddenly reached its peak.
"The enemy is asking for a decisive battle?"
On a plateau somewhere on the battlefield, Wu Ming rode on his horse, and a divine light bloomed in his eyes. He suddenly smiled and said, "With the help of the Heaven Emperor, the True Dragon Status has been achieved, and his fate has increased greatly. Are these small fries confused and coming to die?"
The Path of Fate had a mysterious effect.
Although it couldn't directly change reality, it could stimulate incentives and magnify or reduce the probability of the best or the worst.
For example, this time, the enemy could have defended the pass, but they chose to go out of the city to meet the enemy. Although there were many reasons, it was not without the influence of fate.
"Roar!
Roar! "At this time, in Wu Ming's eyes, Wu Zhi's army was rising like a towering mountain, and a red dragon was wandering in the middle, shining with extraordinary divine power.
And on the opposite side, although the 100,000 enemy soldiers also had a cloud of fate, they were scattered. Among them, there was a three-headed evil dragon that bared its fangs and brandished its claws. It had lost its righteousness, and its body was a little messy.
When the red dragon roared, the evil dragon immediately took a step back. It seemed to be fierce in appearance but weak in heart.
"The gap is so big, there's no need to compete …"
Wu Ming shook his head, but he was a little interested in the hidden fate connections around the evil dragon.
"But to be able to become a dragon, it seems to have received a lot of dragon energy … That's right, which of the feudal lords in the world is willing to see Wu Zhi successfully enter Luo?"
"The military affairs of the secular world will be settled by the army, and the affairs of the cultivation world will be left to you!"
He turned around and said in a solemn tone to his subordinates.
"Yes, Young Master!"
At the foot of the hill, there was a dense crowd of people. Daoist Tianxiang, Daoist Daoist of the Four Elements Sect, Mohist Mechanic Master, Righteous Confucian Scholar, Legalist Incantation Master … All kinds of eccentric people knelt down and promised loudly.
Since Wu Zhi's rise, there were too many people who sought refuge with him, including people from all religions and nine schools. Then, they were integrated by Wu Ming and formed an organization of cultivators to protect the new dynasty, specifically to deal with the enemy Taoists and sorcerers. After the establishment of the dynasty, they could also monitor the illegal evil cultivators in the world and stabilize the world.
"Tianxiang, you go here!"
"And the Gongshu family, you are responsible for the direction of the silver mountain!"
…
According to the direction of fate, Wu Ming randomly assigned tasks, "As for those who are above the Divine Immortal level, I will take all of them. You guys go!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
At this time, the people under the hill vaguely knew about Wu Ming's cultivation, so they did not dare to disobey. After bowing again, they flew together with Dharma and mechanism techniques, and then disappeared with a few rays of light.
"Kill!"
On the battlefield in the distance, battle cries shook the sky. Surprisingly, the two armies were slowly approaching, and the cavalry suddenly launched a charge.
At this time, Wu Zhi no longer used an unconventional sword, but concentrated his superior forces. At the beginning, he used five thousand cavalrymen to charge. This move was clever but clumsy. On the plains, the charge of a group of heavily armored cavalrymen was almost invincible in the era of cold weapons. Moreover, it was so imposing that unless it was broken by force, no tricks would have any effect.
At the same time as the cavalry charged, above the Nine Heavens.
Accompanied by the roar of the red dragon, a ray of mysterious light shot out like a dragon's breath and hit the body of the three-headed evil dragon.
After being hit, the three-headed evil dragon immediately let out a sad cry, and its body suddenly exploded, no longer in its previous evil state.
"Charge with me!"
At the vanguard of the cavalry, Wu Tiehu laughed uproariously. The Goat Constellation was constantly buffing him, causing his entire body to explode with energy. It felt like it would break out of his body at any moment, urging him to conquer, slaughter, and plunder everything in the world.
With the support of the Goat Star Fate, his martial arts had almost reached the peak of the secular world, comparable to a Martial Sage. With a few swings of his blade, several enemy cavalry generals were chopped off their horses. Even the dense starlight formed a layer of shining armor on his body, which could protect him from hidden arrows and stray arrows.
The enemy cavalry fell into a great defeat at the moment of contact, and Wu Tiehu charged in front, breaking through the phalanx of the infantry.
"Kill!"
After the spearhead charge broke through the defensive line, the infantry immediately collapsed, revealing the fact that their command was not effective, causing them to scatter in confusion and run to the rear.
Once these defeated soldiers formed a wave and charged back at the main formation, it was very easy for the originally meticulously arranged formation to collapse, forming an avalanche of defeat.
Faced with this situation, any general with a bit of foresight would order the military law team to go forward and shoot anyone who dared to rush into the formation!
However, at this time, for some unknown reason, the enemy town was also in a state of panic, unexpectedly not issuing any orders.
"Infantry, attack!"
Of course, Wu Zhi would not let go of this opportunity. He personally beat the war drums, and the army slowly approached.
More and more scattered soldiers formed, and coupled with the attack on the formation, the army of 100,000 collapsed. Tens of thousands of people rushed left and right like headless flies, throwing away their helmets and armor. The scene was very shocking.
Ceng Yu looked at this scene in a daze, and suddenly bowed, "Congratulations, Your Highness, congratulations, Your Highness. Our army has won a great victory, and in the future, we will be able to rule the world! Unify the nineteen prefectures! "
Since the allied forces were defeated, Peidu and the imperial court were close at hand. Ceng Yu no longer had any doubts about Prince Ding's future!
