Chapter 59 This is not a reason for a son-in-law to kill his father-in-law!
Because the logistical problems had been solved, Chen Mo began to expand outward again.

Of the 150,000 troops, 50,000 were left behind in Sichuan and 100,000 were used in the Northern Expedition.

Whether intentional or unintentional, the route of this Northern Expedition was surprisingly similar to the route of Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition back then.

The mighty army of 100,000 naturally alarmed the Mongol spies. The news had already reached the north, but Chen Mo did not care about it. Not to mention that his soldiers were all willing to fight for their lives, the presence of Liu Bowen alone could increase the chances of victory by 50%.

Liu Bowen suggested sending people to launch surprise attacks, take detours, ambush, etc. Chen Mo did all of them one by one, and indeed achieved considerable results. Many Yuan troops were exhausted, and in the end only left a field of corpses and fled in embarrassment.

Liu Bowen seemed to have a God's perspective. He could always predict the enemy's marching movements in advance and make targeted arrangements. Chen Mo didn't know how he did it, but he was very powerful!
Of course, the victory of the battle cannot be attributed entirely to Liu Bowen alone. Every soldier who contributed was a hero. They carried out every order of Chen Mo very seriously. Even if they were stabbed by the Yuan army, they would drag the Yuan army down with them before they died.

Liu Bowen was also shocked by the spirit of his own army. Everyone was warlike and eager to fight. They were fearless in battle. They might not listen to orders from others, but they would obey Chen Mo's orders even if it meant death. What is the strongest army in the world? This is the strongest army in the world!

In this situation, he could only get a glimpse of fragments in history books. He still remembered that the country was called Qin, the Qin after Shang Yang's reforms!
If such a situation occurs in the present time, how can we not seize the world?

All the previous battles with the Yuan army were in the field, so the military strategies could be fully utilized, and soon everyone encountered the need to attack the city.

"Marshal, the Yuan army is holding its ground now. If our army attacks forcefully, we will probably suffer heavy casualties. Why don't we retreat first, and when the Yuan army in the city relaxes its tension, we send some spies to the city, and then we can attack from both inside and outside?" Liu Bowen suggested.

Throughout history, in countless sieges, the attacking side has won victory in this way. It is hard to defend against and is also a relatively safe method!
Chen Mo rejected Liu Bowen's proposal for the first time: "Bowen, this is the first time you follow me to fight a siege. Today I will let you see the strength of my [Shenzhao Army]. Aren't you very curious about why my soldiers worship me as a god? You will know the reason next!"

Liu Bowen was shocked: I didn’t expect that the Marshal had already seen through some of my thoughts!
At the same time, he was also curious about what Chen Mo meant by this, and Chen Mo explained it with practical actions. He drew out the Yitian Sword and swung it forward. The five thousand [Shen Zhao Army] behind him roared and rushed towards the city in front, ignoring the numerous incoming arrows because they believed that the man would take action.

Sure enough, the first soldier of the Shenzhao Army did not panic after being hit by an arrow. He pulled out the arrow and continued to charge. The injured part of his body emitted a dazzling red light, and the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. After a while, he was back to normal.

This scene appeared in every [Shenzhao Army]. Liu Bowen, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, was horrified. He looked at the [Shenzhao Army] and then at Chen Mo, thinking: Is this still a human? I heard before that Chen Mo was the reincarnation of a god, but now it seems that he is not a god, but he is better than a god!

Chen Mo also smiled with satisfaction. After going through dozens of battles, his understanding of the [Shen Zhao Jing] had been further enhanced. Combined with the characteristics of [Qian Kun Da Neng Yi], he was able to accurately control the treatment range, instead of letting the healing light of the [Shen Zhao Jing] cover the whole body of the soldiers as before, resulting in a waste of the Shen Zhao Jing's internal force.

Today, although the upper limit of Chen Mo's healing capacity is still 5,000 people, with refined control, the continuous healing time can be extended to one hour, or two hours.

Open source is difficult, so cut costs!

The growth of internal strength cannot be doubled overnight, so the consumption will be reduced. This is the result of his research for more than half a year. This is the first time it has been officially put into use, and the effect is very good.

[Shinzhao Army] had been selecting the best from the best for such a long time, so each of them was able to fight three or even five enemies at once, and since they were not afraid of pain, it was not impossible for them to fight ten enemies at once. As expected, this siege ended with a great victory for [Shinzhao Army].

Over the next year or so, Chen Mo's army was unstoppable, capturing countless cities in the north in succession, and were already approaching Yuan Dadu.

The reason why it was so smooth was, on the one hand, that Chen Mo's army was brave and Liu Bowen was extremely wise, and on the other hand, countless Han people had long hated the Mongols. Wherever Chen Mo's army arrived at a place, before Chen Mo sent out spies, the people in the city took the lead in carrying out internal explosions on the Yuan army, making Chen Mo's attack much less difficult.

The entire Mongol Yuan government was shocked. In order to defend Dadu and eliminate Chen Mo, King Ruyang recalled the army that was originally used to suppress the many anti-Yuan forces in the south, and ordered all the surrounding Yuan troops to voluntarily abandon the cities they were defending and gather towards Dadu, as if they were ready to fight to the death.

Today, the sky is clear and the air is bright!
The Mongol cavalry and Chen Mo's army were stationed on two hills, facing each other two kilometers apart. The leading general on the Mongol side was none other than King Ruyang. A young general wearing silver armor beside him was King Ruyang's son and Zhao Min's brother, Wang Baobao. Although his martial arts skills were not extraordinary, he was a rare talent in commanding troops among the Mongol Yuan!
On Chen Mo's side, several of his women were also there. Among them, Zhao Min was looking at the leading general on the opposite hill. Even though the distance was a bit far, Zhao Min's intuition told her that it was her father!
Zhao Min came to Chen Mo and said, "Husband, the leader of the army on the opposite hill may be my father. If my father is here, then my brother must be here too. If a fight really breaks out, can you spare their lives?"

But Zhao Min knew Chen Mo's fighting power. If Chen Mo took action personally, the entire hill opposite would probably be blown up. By then, her father and brother would probably die on the spot, so she came to persuade him!
Chen Mo asked: "Do you have the confidence to persuade your father and brother to surrender?"

Zhao Min thought about her father and brother's personalities and shook her head helplessly.

"In that case, then fine, I may not kill your father and your brother, but I will not show mercy to the Yuan army under their command!" Chen Mo said.

"Hmm!" Zhao Min nodded. She knew that it was already good enough that she could let Chen Mo let go of her father and elder brother. It was impossible to save those Yuan troops.

On the Mongolian side, Prince Ruyang said to Wang Baobao: "I heard from the spies that Minmin became Chen Mo's woman? Is he being bullied?"

"That's not the case. On the contrary, Chen Mo gave Minmin a lot of power." Wang Baobao answered truthfully. Chen Mo didn't check the spies so strictly, so the Mongols also knew some of the information.

Prince Ruyang sighed, "Alas, they say that when a girl grows up, she will be rejected. It's true. It would be fine if she became Chen Mo's woman, and it would be fine if she didn't persuade Chen Mo to join our Yuan Dynasty. I didn't expect that she would turn against us in the end. What a thing!"

After a moment of silence, Wang Baobao said, "Do you think there is a possibility that Minmin tried to persuade him but it didn't work?"

"..."
