Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 462 A meeting between wind and cloud
"It turns out that the gang leader had planned this long ago."

Li Chenzhou explained: "Regarding this situation, I dare not take credit for it. It was all planned by the military advisor."

"If it weren't for the leader's trust, I would never have had this opportunity."

"The Power Gang has risen too fast, and being a big tree attracts the wind. It is inevitable that there will be people with ulterior motives who want to take over our gang while it is still unstable. The enemies hiding in the dark are the most terrifying."

"So, the gang leader already knew that Yin Shiji had ulterior motives, and he promised him an important position so that he could lead out the ambitious people hiding in the dark."

Wang Pu added: "This is one of the reasons for participating in the Shuangfeibao Conference. If the master is here, no one dares to make any unusual moves."

"In fact, before I left, I had already asked the Avatar Ming Wang to stay in the Tianxiong Army, waiting to capture the enemy in one fell swoop."

"After today, the great cause of the gang leader will no longer have internal troubles, and you can focus on attacking."

"It will take three months to defeat Shu, three years to destroy Han, and within ten years, the world will be under control. This statement has never been an empty promise. When we return this time, we will start preparing to attack Shu. After Shu is destroyed, we will rest and recuperate for a while, and then officially start attacking Han."

"Boss, isn't this too hasty?" Yin Ling said with some worry.

"Don't worry, Master Jijiu. I have made all the arrangements. When we return to Chang'an, you will not think so after you check the intelligence I have collected."

The beautiful mountains and rivers that could be seen and Li Chenzhou's overwhelming momentum made Yin Ling and Wang Pu bow down to him.
-
Hello everyone, I am the dividing line of water word count-——
When Li Chenzhou was not back, the Quanli Gang staged a massive rebellion, but it was quelled in just one night.

At this point, the Power Gang has eliminated all internal troubles and is about to begin a new round of attacks.

After Zhao Kuangyin recuperated in Wanyao Manor for a period of time, his injuries recovered and he began his own journey.

Although he lost the Heavenly Sword, he possessed the magical skill "Xiantian Qiankun Gong", which allowed him to focus on this skill.

The hatred for the sword being stolen and the revenge for the humiliation made him master all the six supreme skills except the seventh one, Earth-shaking, in just a few months.

He also connected the body-protecting magic skill with the Vajra body that was shattered by Li Chenzhou.

Even so, Zhao Kuangyin still felt that he was no match for Li Chenzhou.

In order to regain everything he had lost and to prove himself to Yin Ling, Zhao Kuangyin went to join Guo Rong.

Although Guo Rong was nominally Long Ge'er's sworn brother, from beginning to end, he was just using Long Ge'er.

Back then, the temple of the holy monk Yi Nan was destroyed by Guo Rong.

He even tortured a holy monk in order to obtain the Tathagata Palm.

Fortunately, the holy monk would rather die than surrender, so Guo Rong did not succeed.

The man in black who assisted Yin Shiji in the rebellion was also the expert sent by Guo Rong at the suggestion of Guo Wei.

During the time when Zhao Kuangyin was recuperating from his injuries, what happened in Shuangfei Fort had already spread throughout the world.

Demon Amitabha ascended to heaven and lost eight red-robed lamas.

Although this was a heavy loss for Guo Wei, he had relied on the deterrence of Mo Amitabha during this period of time.

Guo Wei's own followers are spread throughout the government and the country. He is already well-established and has recruited many martial arts experts. He is already able to overwhelm his political enemies in the court. It can be said that he holds great power.

There were only two powerful enemies and political rivals left, the Heavenly Demon and the Earthly Demon from the "Three Absolute Palms", and Zhao Kuangyin, the master, arrived at the right time.

When Guo Rong saw Zhao Kuangyin coming to surrender, he personally came to greet him and held a grand banquet, allowing Zhao Kuangyin to make friends with the civil and military officials under his command.

It seems that he treats him as his confidant. It is also revealed that Zhao Kuangyi, who served under him, is his younger brother.

Zhao Kuangyin was delighted to see his brother recognize each other. He was also very grateful to Chai Rong and formally joined Chai Rong's army.

With the support of Zhao Kuangyin, a master warrior, Guo Wei was also supported by the people headed by Guo Rong.

After half-heartedly accepting the situation, he made up his mind to start a rebellion. He received a sudden report that the Khitan were heading south, and led his army north to resist. When passing through Chanzhou, Guo Rong instigated his soldiers to launch a mutiny and let Guo Wei wear the yellow robe. Guo Wei then returned to Kaifeng with his army, and after a fierce offensive and defensive battle, he conquered Kaifeng.

Zhao Kuangyin fought a desperate battle with the demon under the city of Kaifeng.

In the end, Zhao Kuangyin made a breakthrough in the battle and used the "Wind Breaking the Enemy" skill for the first time.

The demon who had gone astray was unable to resist the orthodox Xuanmen moves and was minced into meat by the wind blades.

The earthly demon fled in panic, and the "Sanjue Temple" was destroyed. Zhao Kuangyin, who defeated the heavenly demon, officially became one of the most powerful masters in the world.

There were still some experts in the Later Han Dynasty who served to protect the royal family, but they were all slaughtered in one fell swoop.

The murderer was none other than Huangfu Ji, the "evil one" who was believed to have died long ago.

It turned out that after Mo Amitabha left, Huangfu Ji, who got the last piece of Hun Tian Bao Jian 'Xuan Yuzhou', came to the door.

After learning that Mo Amitabha was dead, Huangfu Ji wanted to kill Guo Rong, Mo Amitabha's direct disciple.

However, he was persuaded by Guo Rong's eloquent speech and was willing to replace Mo Amitabha and become his backer.

From then on, no one in the Later Han Dynasty could stop Guo Wei, but the price they paid was that the entire Guo family was wiped out and there was no heir.

Guo Wei led his troops into the palace, forced the Queen Mother to appoint him as "Regent" and seized power.

A month later, Guo Wei officially proclaimed himself emperor, appointed Guo Rong as the crown prince, named the country Da Zhou, and established Bian Jing as the capital.

The Later Han Dynasty was destroyed and the Later Zhou Dynasty was established, but the handover of the new regime still required a period of transition.

Liu Chong, the younger brother of Emperor Gaozu of the Later Han Dynasty, the Jiedushi of Hedong and the Yin of Taiyuan, also proclaimed himself emperor based on the twelve states of Hedong, and still used the Qianyou era name of the Later Han Dynasty, calling himself the orthodox one.

At this time, the powerful gang in Guanzhong raised the banner of rebellion. Li Chenzhou announced to the world that he was the legitimate heir of the Li Tang Dynasty. Holding the imperial seal, he established the New Tang Dynasty and occupied all of Guanzhong.

The first thing the new Tang Dynasty did after its establishment was to attack the Later Shu, which occupied Sichuan and Shu, while the Later Zhou was busy with other things.

The Later Shu had not fought a war for many years, and its civil and military talents were naturally no match for the New Tang army that had been preparing for a long time.

In just less than a month, they were defeated step by step, lost all their natural defenses, and were finally driven to the city of Chengdu.

Even though the veteran general Shi Yu believed that the Tang army had come from afar and would not be able to last long, they should gather their troops and hold their ground until the Eastern troops became exhausted.

However, after years of comfortable life, Meng Chang, the ruler of Later Shu, had lost all his ambitions.

After climbing up the city wall and seeing the majestic appearance of the Tang army and seeing Li Chenzhou coming in person, he ordered the city to be opened and surrender.

In less than three months, Li Chenzhou conquered Sichuan, which is known as the "Land of Abundance", and his power increased again.

After accepting Meng Chang's surrender, Li Chenzhou named him "Marquis of Shu" and ordered his soldiers to send him to Chang'an for custody.

After Sichuan and Shu are completely pacified, he will be allowed to resume his activities, but his food, clothing and other expenses will not be reduced.

Born in a turbulent time, it was a great privilege for a king of a fallen country to receive such treatment.

Afterwards, Li Chenzhou took over hundreds of thousands of Shu troops, eliminated the dross and retained the elite from them, and then disbanded them and incorporated them into the New Tang Army.

Excluding some local garrison troops, after this incorporation and a large-scale conscription, the army under Li Chenzhou's command could mobilize up to 200,000 troops.

Their power has been established and they are eyeing the Central Plains covetously.

Thanks to Wu Mengsheng for the reward.
