The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire

Chapter 451: Covet

Views:

The invasion of Yuguo was so sudden and so natural that it did not give the local warlords in South Korea any time to prepare.

Use preparedness to deal with unpreparedness, and use intention to deal with unintentionality. How can the Korean warlords stop it

After capturing northern Korea, the 5 million-strong army marched into the central part of the country.

The princes in the central part had just heard the news of the invasion of the imperial kingdom at this time, and thought that the war was now limited to the north and would not spread to the central part so quickly, so they were still discussing alliance matters.

So when the army of the Imperial Kingdom appeared in front of Xinzheng City, the imperial capital of South Korea, the princes who were discussing the alliance in Xinzheng City were all stunned, and then became panicked.

The current princes are not ready to fight with the imperial kingdom immediately, especially in the current imperial capital city. Because the princes are wary of each other and do not trust each other, there are not many garrison troops. Each prince brings hundreds of troops with him. Thousands of guards and entourage together formed the defense of the imperial capital city.

There are not many of these guards. The total number of followers of more than 30 princes is only about 100,000. Compared with the huge imperial capital, it is not enough at all.

The imperial vanguard army of 500,000 people outside the city has arrived, and the 100,000 soldiers and horses in the city are really difficult to resist.

Therefore, these princes' coalition forces made a final struggle, killing tens of thousands of vanguard troops, and then they were all suppressed. All the people died, and all the resistance forces in South Korea were completely destroyed.

Taking advantage of the fact that all the armies of the princes across Korea were wiped out, the local garrison was leaderless, and there was a brief void in power.

Zhong Yu promptly ordered the army to disperse and divide into more than a hundred groups to march towards various parts of South Korea.

After the army was separated, although the number became smaller, there were only twenty or thirty thousand people entering each time.

But these armies are all united, have high morale, have unified command, can cooperate with each other, and can unite together to fight a large-scale battle when necessary.

The enemies they faced were not subordinate to each other, and even had extremely profound conflicts. Even the armies within the same force were divided into several factions.

These factions are now competing for the vacant leadership position due to the death of their leader. They are fighting each other and it is impossible to unite.

Under this situation, it took Zhong Yu less than a year since his expedition to Korea to pacify all areas of Korea, kill all the princes, and bring all the territory of Korea under his command.

From the moment when Korea was completely destroyed, the Li Niao flag belonging to the Royal Kingdom was hung on the city walls everywhere. Zhong Yu had this idea in his mind.

Zhong Yu understood that the bottleneck of the eighth-level immortal that had been bothering him for several years and that he could not make any progress in his cultivation had been loosened at this moment.

Now Zhong Yu has such a feeling that as long as he slowly advances towards the eighth level, it will only take about 30 years to completely enter the eighth level, thus lifting his hundred-year lifespan limit.

This discovery made Zhong Yu overjoyed.

Zhong Yu had made countless efforts before to break through to the eighth level, but he had tried countless methods, but still had no success.

Now with the expansion of the territory, the bottleneck has become loose. The eighth-level gate of heaven and man is opening towards him. How can he not feel happy

"But it takes 30 years to break through the current level of cultivation. It's too long." Zhong Yu felt a little dissatisfied.

"It seems that the progress of the strategy will be accelerated!" Zhong Yu thought that if he had only destroyed one South Korea, he would be able to break through the bottleneck of the eighth level. If he destroyed two or three more countries and brought all their territories under his control, then he would be able to break through the eighth level. Isn't it just within a few years

Now that Korea has been destroyed, the south and west of Korea are the original territory of the Tang Dynasty, the country of Yu is to the north, and the Wei Dynasty is to the east.

The territory of the Tang Dynasty to the east has been destroyed by the remaining three countries with immortal power, Ji Kingdom. Only the south side remains because it is too far away from the three countries and the tentacles cannot reach that long.

Then the Tang Dynasty area in the south of South Korea can capture it, which is nearly a country's territory. Taking this area down will probably shorten the time it takes for Zhong Yu to break through to the eighth level.

And the Wei State to the east can also start preparing for the strategy.

The situation of Wei State is a little better than that of South Korea. To the east is Fang State, which is not very strong and is one of the lowest among the countries on the mainland.

This time, the melee between the Tang Dynasty and the Allied Forces of the Six Nations did not affect Fang State, so that the only eighth-level immortal in Fang State and the founder of Fang State, Emperor Taizu, survived.

Moreover, in a strict sense, Fang Country belongs to the southern region but does not belong to the south. It should be divided into the southeastern region.

It's just that the southeast region is mostly filled with lofty mountains, which are not suitable for human habitation, and there are many demons in the mountains, so the human race's power has almost stopped in the southeast region.

In the entire southeastern region, the human race only has this small Fang Kingdom.

Because the land of Fang Country is barren, the output is too little, and there are demons at work, it is impossible to develop with peace of mind. Therefore, the country is poor and weak. There are only 15 provinces in the country. Calling it an empire is somewhat flattering.

If it hadn't been for the fact that it had expanded its power and retained its survival points for the human race in the southeastern region, no one would have called it an empire at all.

Moreover, the cultivation level of Fang Guo's founding ancestor was also very low, and he was among the lowest group among the immortals. I heard that he was able to break through to the realm of immortals by chance, and his foundation was shallow, so he could only barely enter the cultivation level of immortals.

Basically, as long as a person can break through the Heavenly Immortal normally, he can defeat two or three Fang Kingdom Taizus, and their strength is extremely weak.

However, even if the Taizu was weak, he was still a heavenly immortal, and the ants under the heavenly immortals could not resist him. Therefore, he established Fang Kingdom in the southeast region, and no one dared to jump out to resist.

With such a weak strength, how could Fang State dare to intervene in the life-and-death battle between the Six Nations Allied Forces and Tang State? I had heard that more than a dozen immortals died in that war. Even a strong man like the founder of the Tang Kingdom was killed in the battle. The Taizu of the Fang Kingdom was so frightened that he was afraid that war would come to him at any time.

It was precisely because of this cowardice that when he heard that the war was over, all countries were seriously injured and no longer had the strength to start a new round of war.

He didn't even dare to send his own country's army to take advantage of the opportunity to annex some of the territories left by various countries, so as to expand Fang's power.

Instead, they restrained the domestic army and strictly ordered them not to cross the border and go to other countries to seize the opportunity to rob and cause trouble, so as not to bring disaster to their own country.
