Chapter 579 Did Darong Win or Lose This Battle?

Tang Wuxi was not in a hurry at this time, and even felt a little happy in his heart.

Although he still supported Wutuo before, his mind has changed now. The Wuliang tribe suffered heavy losses, so should the Wuliang royal court change its owner next?

Among the seven major Wuliang tribes, their Chici tribe should be the most powerful now.

Other tribes have gone south and suffered losses in Beiyuan Town, but their Chici tribe did not go south and only guarded the Menghe Mountain Gate.

Of course, their Chici tribe did not get any benefits. Although other tribes suffered losses in Beiyuan Town, they also looted a large amount of supplies from Beiyuan Town.

Thinking of the heavy losses of the Wuliang tribe, Tang Wuxi couldn't help but have a booming ambition in his heart.

Perhaps he can also replace the Wuliang royal court and establish the Chici royal court!

He was not the only one who had such an idea. Bai Mi of the Tatar tribe also had such an idea. Although they lost a lot of young and strong men in Beiyuan Town, compared with the spoils they got, the losses could be completely ignored.

There was also Sang Kun of the Alaman tribe, who was also watching Wu Tuo withdraw to Yemi City coldly.

Many tribes of the Alaman tribe were looted by Yang Mingzhen and Yang Chengze, but they were not seriously injured.

So Sang Kun also had some ideas in his mind that he had not had before.

In the Liangwang tribe, Cui Liang and Ji Feiyu sat together, but they looked regretful.

"All tribes have withdrawn their troops, but it's a pity that this war lasted too short, so short that we haven't collected enough blood food!" Cui Liang said softly.

This time, the Wuliang Hu tribe marched south in large numbers, and the Liangwang tribe also participated. However, as a vassal king, Cui Liang was not qualified to compete with other tribes, so he could only lead his subordinates to pick up some leftovers in the back. At the same time, in order to please those tribes, he was also responsible for treating many wounded soldiers.

At this time, there were still tens of thousands of wounded soldiers in his camp, but these wounded soldiers were ordinary herdsmen. The Hu cavalry with a little status or some cultivation became their blood food.

Not only the soldiers of the Hu tribe, but also many wounded soldiers from Beiyuan Town were treated.

Cui Liang's reasons were also very sufficient. He wanted to surrender these wounded soldiers.

His behavior not only did not arouse the disgust of other tribes, but made many tribes very grateful to him.

And they did treat a lot of people, even compared with the blood food they used, the number of people they treated was dozens of times that of blood food.

If saving lives is a merit, then Cui Liang's merits this time can be said to be immeasurable.

But Cui Liang, who had done great deeds, felt that the war lasted too short.

Ji Feiyu grinned, "The war between Wuliang Royal Court and Beiyuan Town is over, but the war within Wuliang Royal Court has just begun. We still have many opportunities next!"

Cui Liang sneered and said, "Yes, Wutuo has invited me to lead the troops to the royal city!"

"Tsk tsk, such a big royal city was burned by the people of Chongshan Town. What a pity!"

Ji Feiyu's eyes flashed blood, "The one who burned Yemi City was Yang Zhengshan!"

Cui Liang's face froze, "Yang Zhengshan!"

"Yes, it's him!" Ji Feiyu said.

Cui Liang fell into silence.

He had never seen Yang Zhengshan, but the name Yang Zhengshan had been lingering in his heart like a nightmare.

He would never forget the fire in the valley inside Guanshankou in his life.

The flames rose, and 100,000 dead souls cried and howled!

Among the 100,000 dead souls, 20,000 were his soldiers, including his wife and children.

His mother was burned to death, his wives and concubines were burned to death, and only the eldest son of his four children escaped with him.

Of course, this cannot be blamed on the fire. He took the initiative to abandon his wife and children. Even at that time, his first thought was not to escape with his wife and children, but to find Wutuo.

It was ambition at work, and it was a weighing of interests.

Now he does not think that he made a wrong choice, nor does he think that he abandoned his mother and wife and children. He blames all the sins on Yang Zhengshan.

"I will kill him!" Cui Liang let out a beast-like roar from the depths of his throat.

Ji Feiyu sneered at him, "Just you!"

Cui Liang was discouraged. He really wanted to kill Yang Zhengshan. He hated Yang Zhengshan deeply, but he had never taken action for revenge for so many years.

"My lord, don't you hate him!" Cui Liang asked in a low voice.

"Hate!" Ji Feiyu's face was a little hideous.

Cui Liang's family was destroyed, and so was Ji Feiyu.

Cui Liang's mother, wife and children died in the sea of ​​fire, while Ji Feiyu's wife and children died in the chaos of soldiers.

Cui Liang was lucky, at least he still had a son, and he married and took concubines over the years, and had many more children.

But Ji Feiyu has become a lonely man.

"Then let's kill him!" Cui Liang said.

Ji Feiyu's face returned to calm, he took a sip of the tea in front of him, "We can't kill him now!"

This is a reality that is hard to accept.

Although he is now a congenital warrior, he is very clear about the gap between himself and Yang Zhengshan.

Cui Liang fell into silence again, but his eyes were also blood red.

"Then let's fight for more blood food!"

His strength could not support his revenge before, but now his strength has sprouted the seeds of revenge in his heart.

As long as there is enough blood food, his strength can be quickly improved, and as long as his strength can be quickly improved, one day he will surpass Yang Zhengshan.

Ji Feiyu nodded, "The civil strife in the Uliang Court is our opportunity, and we will get more this time!"

The two discussed how to get more blood food in the civil strife of the Wuliang royal court, and they buried their hatred for Yang Zhengshan in their hearts.

Those hatreds will not disappear, but will only be infinitely amplified over time, until hatred swallows up their hearts and makes them completely enslaved by hatred.

Xu Ling Blood Refining is an evil skill, not only because its cultivation process is too evil, but also because Xu Ling Blood Refining has many defects and sequelae.

The most obvious flaw is that in the same realm, the strength of a warrior who practices the Continuing Spirit Blood Refining is not as powerful as that of a warrior who practices down-to-earth.

The second is that the lifespan is short, and the lifespan of the innate warriors who practice the Continuing Spirit Blood Refining is far less than that of other innate warriors. They will not live beyond one hundred and twenty years of age at most.

The biggest sequelae of Xu Ling Blood Refining is that it affects the mind. It will arouse the strongest evil thoughts in the hearts of practitioners, such as lust, hatred, bloodthirsty, greed, etc., until they completely become slaves of evil thoughts.

For a normal warrior, the process of practicing the Shuling Blood Refining Technique is extremely painful, while for a warrior with good intentions, it will be even more painful after practicing the Shuling Blood Refining Technique.

The Restoring Blood Refining Technique has a powerful temptation for many warriors because it can quickly improve the martial arts cultivation. However, many warriors will not practice it after obtaining the Restoring Blood Refining Technique, because for warriors with good thoughts. , it also takes great courage to practice it.

For those with evil thoughts, it is like a mandala flower that makes people addicted.

...

The internal turmoil of the Wuliang royal court was endless, and there were also undercurrents in the Darong court.

Wuliang's army went south, Beiyuan Town retreated one after another, Hu cavalry invaded Longyuan, Linyuan City was broken, and one after another, he burst into a turbid pond like a huge rock, causing the waves to rise. The bigger the more.

Although Emperor Yanping could still sit firmly on Diaoyutai, many ministers in the court were so embarrassed that they were aroused by the waves.

When Beiyuan Town was defeated and retreated continuously, the first person to suffer was An Huairen, the left governor of the Left Army Governor's Office. Because Beiyuan Town is under the jurisdiction of the Left Army Governor's Office, Beiyuan Town is unfavorable to fight, and An Huairen, the left governor, naturally bears the brunt.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

The second disaster was Wang Lu, the Minister of War, who had served as Minister of War for ten years, ended in a bleak end under the impeachment of countless officials.

Wang Lu's miserable talk was not only because of the unfavorable battle in Beiyuan Town, but also because he was a representative figure of Shu Xue in the court.

The factors in this are very complicated, including factional struggles in the court and school struggles in the Shilin.

The Shu school is a big faction in the Darongshi Forest. For example, the Shanyue Academy in Bashu is the representative of Shu school, and Wang Lu is also a representative of Shu school.

The Darong Shilin is divided into many schools, including the Northern School led by the Imperial College and the Imperial College, the Shu School led by Shanyue Academy, the Southern School led by Nanshan Academy in the south of the Yangtze River, etc.

Each school has different ideas, which will not only affect the court, but also the world.

Originally, the school disputes in the court were not fierce, but recently, with the help of some ambitious people, school disputes have been emerging.

Wang Lu became the first victim of the school dispute.

And this is just the beginning.

After the Hu Qi's urgent message invading Longyuan was sent to Kyoto, the prosperous Rongguo Duke's Mansion also came to an end.

Duan Rui was impeached by many officials from Longyuan Province and was removed from his post as the left governor of the Later Army Governor's Office. If Duan Qifeng had not been still in Linyuan City, Duan Rui would not only be deprived of his post, but also might have been Reduced title.

After Linyuan City was broken, countless memorials impeached Duan Qifeng floated into the imperial study room. Duan Qifeng was still not exempted from the punishment of being reduced to the third-class title, and was demoted from the first-class Duke to the first-class marquis.

The Longyuan Party defeated Duan Rui, but soon the Longyuan Party was besieged by many officials.

Because a large number of Hu cavalry invaded the Longyuan area, many officials from Longyuan Province lost the city, and many local gentry in Longyuan were forced to surrender to the Hu cavalry's blade.

Not to mention the Longyuan Party, even the Shangwu Temple Minister Zhang Luan, the Minister of Jianchang, was impeached by many people.

Shangwu Temple is also a military institution. The Shangwu Department of Longyuan Province is not in good condition and is also targeted.

In addition, Yang Zhengshan, the general of Chongshan Town who had been in office for a few months, was also impeached by many officials.

Naturally no one in the court knew about Yang Zhengshan’s plan. The ministers in the court only knew that the army in Chongshan Town was afraid of the enemy’s defeat in Mengheshanque.

Zhang Luan and Yang Zhengshan were impeached, which caused turmoil among the nobles.

Although the noble group is divided into many factions, it has always been a group to keep warm.

Duan Rui and Duan Qifeng were impeached, and the nobles could tolerate it. After all, the unfavorable battle in Beiyuan Town was an unconcealed fact. Wuliang's army invaded Longyuan, and Duan Qifeng was in trouble as the general of Beiyuan Town.

Even if the Honors Group is dissatisfied with this, it is difficult for them to refute the civil servants.

However, Zhang Luan and Yang Zhengshan were impeached, not only Zhang Luan and Yang Zhengshan, but also many nobles were impeached. After all, there are many nobles in Beiyuan Town, and a border town involves more than a dozen nobles.

And so many nobles were impeached, which naturally attracted a counterattack from the nobles' group.

Originally, there was a factional dispute between civil officials in the court, but later it turned into a civil and military dispute.

But what is the most important thing at this time?

It is not fighting, but mobilizing troops to support Longyuan.

However, the officials in the court were only concerned with self-preservation and attacking, which delayed the mobilization of troops to support Longyuan.

On the tenth day after the Hu cavalry invaded Longyuan, when Yang Zhengshan broke through Yemi City, the court had not yet come up with a plan to mobilize troops.

After Linyuan City was broken, the fighting in the court became more intense, and as a result, no one paid attention to the Hu cavalry wreaking havoc in Longyuan.

Time passed day by day, until mid-June, the chaotic court finally remembered Longyuan and began to draw troops from various guards to support Longyuan.

But at this time, Yang Zhengshan had already entered the snowy land, and the armies of the Wuliang tribes had slowly retreated and were about to withdraw from Beiyuan Town.

Yang Zhengshan's surprise attack on Yemi City caused heavy losses to the Wuliang tribe, but he could not make up for the losses in Beiyuan Town and Longyuan.

After this battle, Beiyuan Town was completely destroyed, and Longyuan was also destroyed by tens of thousands of Hu cavalry.

In late June, Yang Zhengshan bypassed Menghe Mountain and returned to Chongshan Town's camp at Menghe Mountain.

He sat in the tent and looked at the documents from the court, his brows furrowed.

There were seven documents in total.

The earliest one was from the Ministry of War in mid-May, when Yang Mingzhen and Yang Chengze had already penetrated deep into the heart of the Wuliang King's court.

The latest one came ten days ago, which was a question from the cabinet, asking him why he didn't go to support Linyuan City.

There were also two inquiries from Emperor Yanping.

"How did you reply?" Yang Zhengshan looked at Tang Feihu and Niu Zhuang and asked.

Tang Feihu sighed faintly, "When the first order from the Ministry of War was delivered, we reported the Marquis' plan to the court!"

Yang Zhengshan was silent.

Since his plan had been reported long ago, why did the court issue so many official documents?

Beiyuan Town failed to stop the Wuliang army, Linyuan City was breached by Wutuo, and Longyuan was ravaged by Wuliang Hu cavalry. These were all unexpected results for Yang Zhengshan.

He really didn't expect that Beiyuan Town would be so useless that it couldn't even hold on for three months!

Did Dayong win or lose this battle?

The Wuliang Hu tribe retreated, and the royal city of the Wuliang royal court was burned down by him. The Wuliang tribe suffered heavy losses. It seemed that Dayong won.

However, Beiyuan Town and Longyuan were poisoned by the Wuliang army, and Dayong's losses were much greater than those of the Wuliang Hu tribe!
