Chapter 18 Northern Expedition!

After Chen Mo completely consolidated his territory in Jiangnan, he officially became king, King Chen!
The Northern Court, on the other hand, called Chen Mo the Devil!

In order to kill Chen Mo, the Northern Court not only sent troops to attack, but also sent martial arts masters to assassinate him and sent spies to poison him, but they were all resolved one by one by Chen Mo.

Not only that, Chen Mo also formed the Jinyiwei, and the head of the Jinyiwei was none other than Hua Tiegan. This old dog was indeed easy to use. Not only did he secretly help him do a lot of dirty things, he was also extremely loyal!

Hua Tiegan can get whatever he wants now, but he is very self-aware. He knows who he can offend and who he cannot offend, and he also knows who gave him all this!
Especially after Chen Mo designed various poisons and curses for him, and then Chen Mo used the Shenzhaojing to neutralize them, no one could threaten Hua Tiegan with his life to betray Chen Mo.

"Ok?"

That night, Chen Mo was sleeping with Shui Sheng in his arms when he suddenly noticed some strange noises coming from the roof.

Chen Mo's skills are absolutely invincible in this world of Liancheng Jue, so he must have heard it right. It must be someone who sneaked into the palace.

"Your Highness, can you do it next time? I really don't have the strength left!" Shui Sheng was awakened by Chen Mo's actions. Thinking that Chen Mo was in the mood again, she begged for mercy immediately.

Chen Mo was speechless. These women had all been trained by him to have subconscious reactions.

"Well, you have a good rest, I'm going out for a while!" Chen Mo said and left the room.

Not long after Chen Mo came out, he found that Ding Dian had also run out.

"Your Highness, there are thieves!" Because of Ling Shuanghua and his son, Ding Dian gradually submitted to Chen Mo over the years and reminded him the first time they met.

"Ok, I know!"

The two looked at each other, followed each other all the way, and finally stopped at the kitchen.

Why is it this place?
There are generally two types of thieves who come here, one is for stealing food, and the other is for poisoning. I just don’t know which one it will be this time!
Ding Dian kicked open the kitchen door and soon the sound of fighting was heard from inside. Chen Mo was waiting outside the kitchen.

blow!
Accompanied by a sound of breaking through the air, a figure rushed out from the kitchen window. The darkness was no longer an obstacle for Chen Mo. He saw that the man was wearing a nightgown that covered his entire body. He could only tell from his figure that he was a man.

Want to run? Humph!

【The arrogant dragon will regret】

Chen Mo's eyes widened and he saw that one of the black-clothed man's legs exploded into a bloody mist.

This is one of the results of Chen Mo's research during this period. He feels that his control over his strength is not good enough, so he keeps practicing control. Now he can control the power of his moves freely. In this way, he can also capture the enemy alive when necessary!
The man in black, who had lost a leg, let out a howl and fell to the ground. He was seriously injured but not dead yet.

Ding Dian also ran out of the kitchen at this time, holding a torch, and pulled off the black-clothed man's veil, exclaiming: "Yan Daping, is that you?"

Yan Daping, a disciple of Mei Niansheng, is a fellow disciple with Wan Zhenshan and Qi Changfa. The three of them conspire to kill their master and seize the Liancheng Jue.

It was Ding Dian who rescued Mei Niansheng at that time, and Mei Niansheng taught Ding Dian the Shen Zhao Jing and Lian Cheng Jue, so it is not surprising that Ding Dian could recognize Yan Daping.

Hearing this name, Chen Mo's eyes flashed. So many people died at the Wan family banquet, but Yan Daping's body was not found. Chen Mo even issued a wanted notice for him. He didn't expect that after so long, this guy suddenly broke into his own palace. "Tell me, what are you doing in the palace?" Chen Mo asked while secretly activating the [Confusing Mind Method].

Yan Daping was seriously injured and had long lost his mind, so under the influence of the [Confusing Mind Technique], he told the whole story without hesitation.

It turns out that after the death of Wan Zhenshan and Qi Changfa, that part of the Liancheng Jue secret book disappeared. Knowing that there was no hope of finding the treasure, Yan Daping intended to rob a few wealthy families and then escape to other places to become a rich man. However, since Chen Mo established the Jinyiwei, Yan Daping was driven like a dog by Hua Tiegan.

Seeing that he could not live a peaceful life, he simply became a killer. This time he took a big order, which was to poison the Da Chen Dynasty!

There are rumors outside that Chen Mo has invincible supernatural powers and unparalleled martial arts. Yan Daping, who has never really faced Chen Mo, is simply dismissive of them. His master Mei Niansheng is also unparalleled in the martial arts world, but in the end, wasn't he killed by himself?

But I didn’t expect that I would really fail this time!

After learning the whole story, Chen Mo handed Yan Daping over to Ding Dian. Ding Dian killed him on the spot without hesitation, and then took Yan Daping's head to pay tribute to Mei Niansheng the next day.

Time flies. Tomorrow is Chinese New Year, but Chen Mo is not idle.

I saw that on a plain fifty kilometers away from the northern imperial defense line, there gathered three hundred thousand elite troops and ten thousand martial artists.

Chen Mo drew out his long sword and waved it towards the northern court: "The Northern Expedition begins today, kill!"

Following Chen Mo's order, ten thousand martial artists will act as the vanguard. They will use various means to enter the city of the Northern Court, and then attack the city gates to cooperate with Chen Mo from inside and outside.

The 300,000-strong army is responsible for charging and quickly occupying the city!
That's right, Chen Mo wanted to take advantage of the New Year celebrations of the northern court to kill them by surprise. To this end, he specially let the soldiers go home to celebrate the New Year a few days in advance and gave them an extra month's salary.

Sure enough, the Northern Court, which had never been attacked during the New Year, was unaware of this and faced Chen Mo's troops head-on, and more than a dozen cities were captured on the same day.

In order to block the news, the Jinyiwei headed by Hua Tiegan supervised the battle. Anyone who dared to leave the camp without permission would be killed, and all the birds flying over the camp would be shot!

It was precisely because of these reasons that when the northern court received the news, Chen Mo’s army was already approaching the capital.

When Chen Mo's army was at the gates of the city, Chen Mo had already captured fourteen of the original eighteen states of Daning. It was too late for the remaining states to go to the capital to support the king. Moreover, now that Chen Mo's momentum had been established, it was still unclear whether they would come to support the king!
"King Chen has ordered that those who surrender will not be killed. Why don't you open the city gates quickly?"

"Prince Chen has invincible magical powers and can cure all diseases and injuries. If you want the king to help you treat your relatives and friends, then open the city gates and welcome the king!"

Sure enough, as Chen Mo sent people to shout slogans outside the city every day, some people in the capital city really started to move. Every day, people attacked the city gates from inside the capital city. The soldiers defending the city were under tremendous pressure, and even many of them joined the ranks of attacking the city gates.

Seeing that Chen Mo's army outside the city had not yet broken in, the soldiers defending the city had been almost exhausted, and the people in the court and the country were in panic. The current Emperor Daning finally couldn't stand the pressure and chose to open the city and surrender!
After receiving the jade seal and the letter of surrender, Chen Mo looked at the last king of Daning. He was handsome, so he thought that the princess born to him should be good-looking too, right?

In fact, before Chen Mo traveled through time, although the Daning Dynasty was not in its most prosperous period, it was not yet in chaos or to the point where the people were suffering.

The reason why he lost his kingdom can be said to be due to Chen Mo's selfishness.
