Chapter 649: Beaconfires in the North Sea(1/2)
A miracle on the Tianshan Mountain not only blessed the practitioners in the five realms, but also the practitioners in the North Sea Islands enjoyed the blessings from heaven, and countless practitioners broke through.
Even the disciples of the Beihai Palace broke out one after another, including Huangfu Nantian, the second prince, and a group of subordinates.
The happiest person is undoubtedly the second prince. After practicing hard for many years without breaking through, he finally broke through to the state of distraction through a miracle from heaven.
Huangfu Nantian, like the second prince, also broke through his own realm to the point of distraction. When the master and servant broke through the realm, they hugged each other and cried bitterly, thinking that they would no longer have to accept the anger of others in these five realms.
Even the two generals in the mansion also broke through to the fourth and fifth levels of distraction, which made them sigh and vowed to follow the second prince.
Just after the summer solstice, with the help of Huangfu Nantian, Beihai Dragon Island finally launched a war against the five regions.
Because of a miracle from heaven, this inevitable war was advanced by two years.
Duanmu Tienan, the leader and deputy leader of Beihai Dragon Island, led an army of 150,000, with Duanmu Feilong, the eldest son of Duanmu Qingkong, and general Cheng Pookong as the left and right generals, and launched a comprehensive attack on Beixuan Territory.
Ouyang Yuanying, the general who guarded Yashan at Beihai Pass, whom the emperor personally ordered, led 20,000 soldiers to lose to the invading enemy from Beihai. After tenaciously resisting the enemy at Yashan City Pass for three days, the whole army was killed. Only the messenger who reported to the imperial city escaped from Yashan.
.
The people of Yashan swore to live and die together with the soldiers of Ancheng. On the day the city was destroyed, 100,000 people in the city fought to the death to resist the enemy.
After fighting to the death, only about 50,000 soldiers and civilians were left retreating to the cliff outside Yashan City.
The 50,000 soldiers and civilians who had shot all their last arrows and exhausted their last bit of strength refused to obey and jumped into the sea one after another from the cliff to die for their country.
Fifty thousand corpses were floating on the sea dozens of miles outside Yashan City, and the sea was dyed red with blood.
On that day, blood rained from the sky, and the heaven and the earth were mourned together.
In the entire Yashan City, from the generals to the soldiers, from the common people to the women and children, no one was willing to escape.
One hundred thousand people and 20,000 soldiers fought to the death on the day the city was broken, and no one survived!
Later generations of reporters called it the Battle of Yashan. There were no weak soldiers or civilians in the five regions, let alone deserters.
From the generals to the women, they are all steadfast and will fight against the foreign enemies with my own blood!
Less than five days after Yashan broke the city, Beihai's 150,000-strong army tightly surrounded Yacheng, the main city of Beixuan Territory, forcing the defenders to surrender.
Sun Yuhai, the lord of the palace, had received the message early and disappeared with his family overnight before the Beihai army arrived. The city lord Hou Guangming did not wait for the Beihai army to besiege the city for two days, and opened the door with 50,000 defenders to meet the enemy.
This is also the result of years of persuasion between the Second Prince and Huangfu Nantian.
At this point, the main city of Beixuan Territory fell, and the defenders of Ancheng Town either disappeared with their families or raised the white flag and surrendered!
One of the five regions was lost, and the entire Beixuan Region fell into Beihai's hands.
Only the Tianshan Sword Sect, which was independent from the rest of the world, remained standing. The merchants in Beixuan Territory who usually had dealings with Tianshan went there to avoid the disaster, and Tianshan was full of people for a while.
More people either fled to Nanxuan Territory or headed straight to the Imperial City.
...
That day, the Imperial City of Central Region.
In the palace, above the Golden Palace, the emperor looked at a group of courtiers and frowned.
There was no war in southern Xinjiang. Generalissimo Jiang Huo returned to the Imperial City to defend the city the year before last. Nalan Yu broke through several times and was now at the fifth level of distraction.
Even the previous group of generals had their own breakthroughs and became great practitioners in the five realms.
The emperor who received the urgent battle report from Yashan guard Ouyang Yuanying looked at the courtiers and said calmly: "Who suggested that Yun Jie be sent to guard Beixuan Territory in the first place? It's a good thing. Within a few years, the entire Beixuan Territory was turned upside down.
Let Beihai take over."
The left prime minister looked at the right prime minister, who shook his head, looked at the emperor and replied: "The most important thing right now is to mobilize the troops from the other three regions to fight with all their strength. This war cannot be burned to the imperial city in the central region."
The left prime minister glanced at the right prime minister, raised his hands and said: "I have the same opinion as the right prime minister. There are two important towns from Beixuan Territory to the imperial city, one is Luoshui and the other is Baxia. We must concentrate our troops as soon as possible.
These two important towns prevent thieves from Beihai from leading their troops to attack the imperial city."
The emperor glanced at Jiang Huo, frowned and asked, "What do you think of Jiang Shuai?"
When Jiang Huo heard this, he stepped forward and cupped his hands and replied: "The imperial city currently has about 150,000 troops. We can withdraw 100,000. If we want to leave 50,000 behind, I am willing to lead an army of 100,000 to garrison Luoshui."
"When additional troops from other regions arrive, we can divide the troops into two groups, go all the way to Baxia, and join Luoshui Lu Chen all the way."
The emperor looked at the two prime ministers on the left and right, and asked in a solemn voice: "What do the two old prime ministers think?"
Xia Yuan, the right minister, looked at the emperor and sighed softly, and replied: "It would be great if the Imperial Preceptor was in the imperial city. The intruders in Beihai were all the defeated generals of the Imperial Preceptor. They probably also found out that the Imperial Preceptor was not there, so they
Dare to attack."
Nalan Yu, who was standing aside, heard what the right minister said and hurriedly stepped forward to tell the emperor: "I have already ordered the post station to hurry up and deliver a message to the city lord's palace in Dongxuan Territory... After all, the country
It’s almost time for the teacher to go down to Tianshan Mountain.”
Upon hearing this, the right minister nodded and said, "Even if we find the Imperial Master, it will take more than 20 days to rush from Fengyun City in Dongxuan Territory. We can't be careless in these days."
Jiang Huo thought for a while, looked at the people and said: "The emperor sent people to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion. Mr. Mo is here to discuss. After all, he is the Imperial Preceptor's husband. With him, we will have more confidence."
From Jiang Huo's point of view, even if his husband doesn't take action, as long as he provides advice, there is still no problem in leading a guard to the important town of Luoshui.
As long as the Imperial Master comes back from Tianshan, everything will no longer be a problem.
He followed Li Ye to pacify Southern Xinjiang and had absolute trust in him.
Considering how few defenders there were in Southern Xinjiang at the beginning, the grassland tribes invaded with absolute force. After easily capturing three towns, they finally pacified Southern Xinjiang in less than two years under the command of the national division.
The left prime minister prefaced the situation by saying: "We can mobilize our troops and rush to Luoshui as soon as possible, and at the same time invite Mr. Mo to come over to discuss how to win this war."
A group of people discussed until the end and decided that Jiang Shuai would mobilize 100,000 troops from the Imperial City and garrison them in Luoshui as soon as possible. The Imperial City would then discuss the next steps with the Emperor and Mr. Mo.
Finally, the emperor issued an edict, and Generalissimo Jiang Huo led the order to mobilize troops. Nalanyu went to the Imperial Prefecture to invite Mr. Mo to the palace to discuss the next countermeasures.
...
Inside the royal study.
The emperor looked at Mr. Sir, Mr. Mr. looked at the bloody battle report sent from Beixuan Territory.
Nalan Yu and Yan Wuxue stood by and looked at the two of them solemnly.
"Sir, originally according to the calculations of the Imperial Guard, the Beihai War would have to wait for another one or two years, but I didn't expect that they would actually advance the war."
The emperor looked at Mr. and said in a deep voice.
"They moved the war forward, so Ye'er should also go down to Tianshan Mountain earlier!" The gentleman put the battle report on the desk and replied quietly.
The emperor liked it very much when he heard it, rubbed his hands and said: "With the Imperial Guard here, we have hope for this war. When something happened in Gyeongju last time, the Imperial Guard was prepared."
"Fortunately, the Imperial Master ordered us to improve our weapons while training our troops, otherwise we would definitely suffer a big loss this time. This time our newly made weapons finally came in handy."
Nalan Yu said from the side.
Seeing the Emperor's relief and Nalan Yu's eagerness to give it a try, the gentleman smiled lightly.
"General Nalan will go to Luoshui with the Generalissimo, bring the heavy camp and equipment, and recruit back the original general in charge of the heavy camp. You go first, I will go there in a few days." The gentleman looked at the three of them.
, said quietly.
"Sir, do you want to go to the battlefield in person? Or should we wait for the Imperial Master to come back?" The emperor looked at him in surprise. He only looked forward to Li Ye's return, but did not dare to ask him to take action.
The gentleman shook his head, as if he had read the emperor's thoughts.
"This time is no different from the battlefield in southern Xinjiang. Since there are foreign enemies and internal traitors this time, they know many things about us. If I don't go, it will only make things worse."
When the gentleman thought of the second prince's Beihai, he couldn't help but frown.
"If the Imperial Master knew about this matter, I don't know how he would deal with my unsatisfactory brother. I had no choice but to send him to Beixuan Territory. I didn't expect that he would lead the enemy into the pass. Yashan
war......"
At this point, even the emperor couldn't help but slap his palm heavily on the table.
"Twenty thousand soldiers and more than 100,000 civilians. This is a blood debt. My brother will ask them to pay it back!" Nalan Yu looked at the emperor and said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, stay calm and don't hurt your mind. Since this has happened, let's stay in Luoshui and wait for the Imperial Master to come back to discuss it again!"
Yan Wuxue looked at the emperor calmly and said softly.
"General Manager, this is a tragedy that has not happened in the Imperial City of the Five Regions for thousands of years. If my father knew about it, how would I face him? I would feel guilty."
The eldest prince glanced at Yan Wuxue.
The gentleman looked at the emperor, shook his head gently, and said: "Think about it from another angle, this is a good thing. We are all here now, why does Ye'er go to Tianshan? It's not that he wants to win this war, he is looking for his own
Opportunity..."
The teacher said softly: "You can relax as Ye'er and I are here. If this matter is pushed back a few decades, when Ye'er completes his cultivation and goes to find your father, who will be able to leap on horseback for you?"
knife?"
In the eyes of Mr. Wang, his disciple will probably be gone in less than ten years, which is beyond the understanding of all the people in the imperial city.
Although Mr. Li has a high regard for Li Ye, it seems that since the master and apprentice have not been together in the past few years, everything that has happened to Li Ye has greatly exceeded Mr.'s expectations.
It wasn't until that day that the master remembered that his disciple was actually much more powerful than he had expected.
The emperor looked at his husband and Nalan Yu, nodded and said, "General Nalan, where is the general from the former Chongnu Palace now?"
Nalanyu cupped his fists and replied: "The original Wang Tianhua is now the Lord of Baiyu City. Do you want to bring him back?"
"The national crisis is looming, so we will transfer him back to the army. Let's wait until this matter is over before returning to his respective bases." The emperor looked at Yan Wuxue and said, "Trouble the Chief General to prepare a decree, recall the relevant people, and send troops to Luoshui."
