Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 2073: Xuanzong Enters Wei, Sword God Fights Killer God

The subsequent troops had not yet arrived at the front line, but Ye Shangjue had given him such a surprise. Di Zhiling was also a very rude person and issued an imperial decree to demote him from his military position and title, and asked him to make meritorious contributions first.

Afterwards, Ren Pingsheng led the Daxiao Dragon Cavalry to take the lead and take charge of the battle situation on the front line.

The Daxiao Dragon Cavalry, whose predecessor was naturally the Daxia Dragon Cavalry, the strongest cavalry of the Daxia Dynasty. But now, the control of this army is no longer in the hands of the Daxia Dynasty, but has fallen into the hands of the Daxiao Dynasty.

Moreover, Daxiao carried out a thorough reorganization.

Therefore, it is naturally inappropriate to call them the Great Xia Dragon Cavalry anymore.

And now in the world, there are only the Great Sky Dragon Cavalry left, and no longer the Great Xia Dragon Cavalry.

However, even though Ren Pingsheng's troops reached the border of Xiaochu, the people of the Great Chu Dynasty began to stay indoors one after another.

Ren Pingsheng and Guo Yongxing issued three declarations of war, but Yin Beifeng, the commander of the Chu army, pretended not to see them. You can just challenge me, as long as I didn't see it, I will pretend I don't know!
The Chu army commander Yin Beifeng and his grandson Yin Jiangdong also died in that battle. However, most of the young generals of the Chu army died in that battle, and his grandson was just one of them.

This is also the reason why the Xiang family became a target of public condemnation in the Chu State. Nine out of ten generals who were somewhat famous in the Chu State had their sons and nephews die in that battle.

The key point is, it would have been fine if their sons and nephews died, but the person who was most directly responsible for that war came back alive and even betrayed them directly afterwards.

As for Daxiao's Ren Pingsheng, in the area around them, he is like Han Xin of the Han Dynasty, and it's not like he hasn't suffered losses at his hands before.

As for Zhuge Li, he also strictly followed Yin Beifeng's order and no longer went into battle.

No matter how powerful the formation is, it can only be used as a trump card, not a conventional means.

Just like Xue Rengui and Ma Qianli, their Longmen Formation and Xuanwu Formation were not used every time a battle broke out, but were kept as trump cards.

If a formation is used again and again, people will eventually find some flaws in it.

Therefore, the best way is to keep it in your hand all the time and never use it unless it is a critical moment.

At this point, after the battle to destroy the Great Wu came to an end, the battle with Yu Chuxiao also began in full swing.

As for the Nanman, at this time, Daxiao's envoys were still on the way. As to whether they would join the war later, there was no way of knowing at this time!

The Great Wei Dynasty!

After Yang Jian left the imperial capital, the political struggle between him and Guo Longcheng completely escalated into a military struggle.

Before, when we were in the imperial capital, it was because the little emperor had just died. If either side fought in front of the little emperor's spirit tablet, even if they won, both sides would suffer losses at most.

However, after the little emperor was buried, the two sides had already begun real small-scale fighting.

And now Yang Jian was forced out of the imperial capital. The two armies would truly be fighting each other to the death.

Guo Longcheng stood in a high position and suppressed Yang Jian's reputation from all angles, portraying Yang Jian as an out-and-out thief of the country.

In particular, Guo Longcheng almost obtained the support of Xiaoshengxianzhuang, which stood up for him and helped him to attack Yang Jian's reputation.

In Xiaoshengxian Manor, the most important persons in charge were all from several aristocratic families such as the Xun family and the Chen family. These aristocratic families were first from the Wei Dynasty, and then they were people of Xiaoshengxian Manor.

Guo Longcheng stood on the side of the orthodox court. As long as these aristocratic families stood on the side of the orthodox court, it would be equivalent to standing on the same front with Guo Longcheng.

In this way, the families behind the main leaders of Xiaoshengxianzhuang all stood on the orthodox side of the court, and they naturally did the same. Therefore, it was indirectly equivalent to having Xiaoshengxianzhuang behind Guo Longcheng.

When the throne was within reach, Guo Longcheng gave it up and handed it over to other members of the royal family, which earned him great reputation.

At this time, Guo Longcheng, in the name of justice, called on soldiers from all over the world to attack Yang Jian, which put Yang Jian into a desperate situation of being surrounded by enemies on all sides.

At this time, Guo Longcheng was in an absolute advantage over Yang Jian in every aspect.

If things continue to develop in this way, Guo Longcheng will definitely be able to eliminate Yang Jian, the great enemy, step by step.

But at this moment, Guo Longcheng made a bad move.

Guo Longcheng, who had an absolute advantage, not only wanted to get rid of Yang Jian directly, he also wanted to get rid of Cui Xiao, Jiang Lin and others at the same time.

Although the previous Wei court was generally composed of two major factions, Guo Longcheng and Yang Jian, it does not mean that there are only these two major factions. There are also other small factions, but their strength cannot be compared with these two major factions, so they can only survive in the cracks.

Now that Guo Longchen had gained an overall advantage in the struggle with Yang Jian, he suddenly wanted to get rid of all these people and bring all the power of the Wei court back to the central government.

By then, the Wei Dynasty, just like the current Chu Dynasty, can truly demonstrate the strength that a unified dynasty should have.

It was not like before, where on the surface the entire dynasty was still unified, but because of internal struggles, it had strength but was unable to exert its full strength as people within it held each other back.

And it was precisely because of Guo Longcheng's action that Cui Xiao, Jiang Lin and others were forced to oppose him.

As a result, Yang Jian, who was already surrounded by enemies and almost in a desperate situation, found that he had several natural allies overnight, which made Yang Jian very happy.

It was precisely because of this that Guo Longcheng's situation could almost be said to have been decided, but he managed to create something unexpected for himself.

Guo Longcheng's military ability is beyond doubt, but he definitely has political wisdom, but he is just like Wang Yun, the Prime Minister in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

You may say that he has no ability, but Wang Situ played both Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu in the palm of his hand. One of these two men was the most powerful princes in the world at that time, commanding the fierce army of Xiliang, and the other was the most valiant general in the world.

In the hands of Wang Situ, the Han Dynasty was almost saved.

However, it was still a little short, and when victory was certain, a stupid move was made.

Guo Longcheng is so similar to Wang Situ.

At this time, Yang Jian, Cui Xiao, Jiang Lin and others joined hands and also nominated someone from the royal family to be emperor.

Although Yang Jian's reputation was already bad enough at this time, he still wanted to save it as much as possible.

Therefore, if he wanted to choose someone to be the emperor, it would be impossible for him to do it himself. If he did it himself, there would be no possibility of salvation. Therefore, no matter how much he coveted the throne, he could only endure it and let someone from the royal family take the position temporarily. After all, he had waited for so many years, and he didn't mind waiting for a few more years.

Yang Jian is different from Guo Longcheng. He will not fight in the war himself, but leave it to the generals under him. As for himself, he will sit in the rear and preside over the overall situation.

During this period, Yang Jian used the name of the emperor to eliminate the spies planted by Guo Longcheng, but in fact, he used the lives of the people as a share of the killing, causing the people to live in misery, so that the reputation of the emperor who had just been pushed to the throne by them was completely lost.

Yang Jian’s move could indeed not be hidden from the senior officials.

However, in the eyes of the people, they only knew that it was an order from the emperor, and they did not know that the emperor was just a puppet. It was clearly an order from the emperor, but in fact it was Yang Jian's method.

Therefore, the people naturally only resented the emperor, not Yang Jian.

At the same time, Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty personally went to the Wei Dynasty to act as a lobbyist, hoping to use the dispute between Yang and Guo to help Li Tang's invasion of Wei.

You can find all kinds of faults in Li Longji in his old age.

However, Li Longji, who was only 20 years old, before he climbed to the pinnacle of power, was no less wise and brave than Li Shimin.

Furthermore, Li Tang and both parties are now in a state where they need each other.

For Yang Jian, although he had helpers like Cui Xiao and Jiang Lin, they were still at a disadvantage compared to Guo Longcheng overall.

The political crisis brought to Yang Jian by the death of the young emperor caused him to lose too much at once.

Therefore, Yang Jian now also needs the support of Li Tang.

In particular, Li Tang's overall strength just happened to perfectly match Yang Jian's psychological expectations.

Li Tang's strength was not weak and he could provide him with enough help, but at the same time, their strength was not strong enough to seek advantage from a tiger.

If it was the Great Chu Dynasty that proposed an alliance, Yang Jian would not easily agree no matter how difficult the situation was.

As for Li Tang, who were originally in the northeast of Daxia, there were only a few forces around them. Dawu in the north seemed to be a neighbor because of the Tianshan Mountains, but in fact it was only a neighbor on the surface.

As for Daxiao, he is the primary enemy at present. If they dare to mention the idea of ​​forming an alliance with Di Zhiling, Di Zhiling will be able to swallow them up directly in the next step.

As for Daxia, the relationship between them and Datang is rather special.

Previously, when the Cao family was in charge, the two families could still maintain a superficial unity. After all, at that time, Emperor Zhiling focused his main attention on them.

However, the Emperor of Daxia concentrated his last strength and regained the dominant position. Even the Cao clan had to submit only temporarily.

As a result, the relationship between the two families began to become distant step by step.

The main reason why Daxia is now in such a situation is naturally the Emperor's family, but the other three major families are not completely without merit either.

Therefore, the Long family of Daxia naturally had some grudges towards them.

If there was a threat from Da Xiao, they could still be on the same front temporarily. However, now that Da Xiao had shifted his focus, the two families began to have dirty dealings with each other.

Therefore, if the Tang Dynasty wanted to find a suitable partner to ally with, it could only look for it among the Wei Dynasty.

Furthermore, if the Tang Dynasty wanted to profit from the Wei Dynasty, even if the Wei Dynasty was in civil strife at this time, it would be extremely beneficial for them to reach a corresponding tacit understanding with one of the parties.

After all, although the Great Wei was in civil strife, it was not a civil strife among several equally powerful factions, but a civil strife with fluctuating strength.

Originally, Yang Jian could still compete with Guo Longcheng, but after experiencing that political crisis, although he allied with several other factions, he was still not enough when facing Guo Longcheng, who had gained support from all parties.

Guo Longcheng has the courage to fight against multiple opponents at once, but it's not that he is just being impulsive. After all, he has the strength.

They naturally have an advantage in joining forces with the weak to fight the strong.

Therefore, under these factors, Li Longji's trip was a complete success.

On this basis, while the Wei Dynasty was plunged into civil war, the Tang Dynasty also sent a massive army to the Wei Dynasty and began their road of expansion.

Daxiao and his men could not defeat them for the time being, and if a fight broke out in Daxia, it would only benefit Daxiao. In this case, expanding to areas outside of the original Daxia became their last choice.

Although Li Shimin, Li Longji and others advocated recuperation rather than expansion at this time.

However, after the Great Xia Emperor made the decision to expand, they had no choice but to cooperate. Li Longji even personally participated in it.

General Wu Lie of Great Xia and Guo Longcheng's adopted son Guo Shiguang are two people who are at loggerheads with each other. They have similar abilities and equal forces, so it is not easy for either of them to completely defeat the other.

The two most powerful generals of the Wei Dynasty, Wu Taidou followed Guo Longcheng to attack Yang Jian, while Shi Huang joined Guo Shiguang to fight against Li Tang.

Shi Huang’s strength should not be underestimated, he was also one of the top masters at that time.

In the initial Dragon and Tiger Ranking, he was ranked as high as eighth, while Wu Taidou at that time was only ranked sixth, and Nangong Qixing of Da Cang was ranked ninth.

In particular, in recent years, Shi Huang has achieved the achievement of seizing soldiers with bare hands.

His strength, under Li Xu's command, is truly invincible.

Li Chen, Mu Shaohua, Yuwen Ke, and Li Hualong, just to deal with Shi Huang, all the possible troops went up.

Although Li Chen is also a true divine general, the strength levels of the Sword God and the Killing God are obviously not on the same level.

It's like the former God of War Li Huai'en and the current God of War Xing Tian, ​​both of whom are true gods and gods of war, but their strength levels are completely different.

Moreover, the Sword God’s combat power is at its peak only when he is wielding a sword.

However, swords are not popular weapons among military generals fighting on the battlefield.

Even later, people like Li Xinan, Li Haotian and Li Keyong also pressed forward.
