Chapter 372 Where the invaders can go, I can go too! (asking for monthly tickets)
Li Guanyi's troops of several thousand men no longer needed any military formation. When Li Guanyi rode on Saluzi, these elite soldiers had already mounted their horses, picked up their weapons, put on armor, and followed Li Guanyi away like flowing water.

This kind of coordination is developed during high-speed marching and combat.

This army will be selected from other different corps and become the core of Li Guanyi's real guard corps, just like the Wolf King's Canglang Guards -

This kind of army, which has experienced battles and expeditions with its commander, has much stronger trust in its commander, morale, cooperation, and cohesion than troops transferred from other parts.

This is what is called living and dying together.

This is what is called sharing the same hatred with you!
Li Guanyi's troops crossed this place and rushed towards the common holy place of all the tribes in the Western Regions [Juxu Mountain]. The morning sun was warm. Ferns grew on the land of the Western Regions in this area, and the snow from several days ago had accumulated together.

Snow accumulates on the shady side and can remain unmelted for a long time.

Li Guanyi exhaled a breath of foul air and bypassed one side of [Juxu Mountain]. He asked Fan Qing and others to lead the army to stop for the time being, while he rode on the divine horse and rushed forward. He raised his eyes and looked far away. He could see the smoke from the burning incense burner for the sacrifice to the sky.

The various tribes in the Western Regions offer sacrifices to the heavens in a different style from that in the Central Plains, but they are essentially solemn actions. Li Guanyi rode on his divine horse to the side of the mountain and saw the traces of the kings in the distance, and even -

The army was some distance away from them. There were probably tens of thousands of soldiers. Li Guanyi just looked at them from a distance and couldn't determine the exact number, maybe 50,000 or 60,000, or maybe 70,000 or 80,000.

The kings and khans of various tribes came with their elite troops. Their numbers were small, but they were outnumbered by the khans.

They were really too confident.

The distance between the army and the place of sacrifice was enough for the elite troops led by Li Guanyi to launch a decisive charge. Those troops wore armor in accordance with their tribal style, with flags of different colors held high, fluttering under the blue sky.

There is a fresh smell in the air.

The blue sky, white clouds, snow-capped mountains, the raging fire and white smoke rising from the central altar of the grand sacrificial ceremony, plus the vast scenery of the Western Regions, it has to be said that this is an extremely sacred and beautiful picture.

Li Guanyi thought about it.

It made him want to swing his spear.

A blazing fire was lit on the altar, burning sandalwood and some mysterious bones. White smoke rose high into the sky before dissipating over the vast Western Regions.

On the altar, the high priests of different tribes were dressed in ancient and simple colorful clothes, with masks made of yak skulls and sheep skulls on their faces. They danced with ceremonial daggers held high, and smoke rose up as they followed the ancient dance steps.

Khans and princes from different tribes stood in different positions.

The one in the center was Helian Bo, the lord of Tongwan City, the ruler of Shatuo State, and the elder brother of Helian Jieshan, a famous general who once commanded an army of 100,000. Even at this time, he was still wearing armor, towering like a mountain, with a thick-backed scimitar on his waist.

Outside of the armor, they wore solemn attire used for sacrificial ceremonies.

The King of Gumo was puzzled. "Strange! The time for offering sacrifices to the heaven has come, why haven't several Khans and Chanyu come yet? Could it be that they don't want to come here, or are they delayed on the way?"

"Should we wait for them?"

Helian Bo frowned and counted. There were nearly a hundred nobles who failed to arrive as scheduled. The number of them was so large that he almost subconsciously thought that these people had risen up to oppose him again.

He never even considered that these people were captured and surrendered.

So he responded immediately, and said with a heroic smile: "If they can't come, then don't wait for them."

"We are here to worship the Eternal Heaven."

"To worship our ancestors, we need to reunite here and complete the feat of the Tuyuhun King three hundred years ago. Everyone agrees on this. Whether they can arrive on time or not will not affect this, right?"

Helian Bo placed his hand on the hilt of the knife at his waist.

King Gumo nodded.

I sighed in my heart. In such a solemn place, the people standing here are not united in their hearts - these Khans, Chanyus, and kings all have their own thoughts and desires.

Even if they do not have the courage and ambition to fight against the tigers and red dragons in the Central Plains, they dare not say that they can achieve the same feat of unifying the entire Western Regions as Tuyuhun did three hundred years ago.

Yet, he was thinking about occupying a higher position in this royal court.

In the final analysis, they want wealth, glory and status, but are unwilling to take on the responsibility of leading the way and direction; just for these powers and rankings, who is the king, they have been fighting openly and secretly for a long time.

Among them, the kingdoms in the Western Regions, such as the Yuezhi, Kanjuti, and Dayuan, were extremely reluctant to engage in such a fierce battle with the Central Plains.

In particular, some kingdoms and tribes that had experienced the battle to siege and kill Duke Li were unwilling to adopt a strategy that threatened Anxi City.

Damn, that’s the place where the mighty general of heaven lives.

Many generals cursed directly.

Lead troops to attack?

Are your martial arts skills better than Helian Jieshan's?

Aren’t you afraid that this mighty general will come and take the head of an enemy general in the midst of thousands of troops?

Among them, many generals and captains were released because they were injured.

They saw with their own eyes that the so-called Central Plains merchant tore through the battle line of 100,000 people like the wrath of a god, and then personally beheaded Helian Jieshan in the midst of thousands of troops, and turned back carrying his head and chief.

Beheading an enemy general in the midst of thousands of troops would leave a deep psychological trauma on any general. The tribes that had fought with Li Guanyi did not want to face that monster again in such a short time.

There are also some countries that are very simple. They just want to hang the traitors on a wooden pole and throw them into the desert to dry. They find a very straight wooden stick, sharpen both ends, and directly pierce the traitor's anus and buttocks, and leave it in the desert.

Sunburned to death.

To deal with traitors, you must use the most cruel method.

They wanted to form an alliance with Anxi City to fight against those traitors, and did not want to follow the strategy proposed by Helian Bo of Tongwan City to form an alliance with the Wolf King and cause chaos in the Western Regions.

There is another group of people who truly hope to reunify the Western Regions, to restore peace to this beautiful land, and no longer want wars to break out. These are not in line with the ideas of Helian Bo of Tongwan City.

So during this period of time, the generals from the Central Plains fought outside the Western Regions.

Helian Bo formed alliances in the depths of the Western Regions, and suppressed, imprisoned, or controlled those who wanted to form an alliance with Anxi City or seek revenge on the Wolf King. He single-handedly led the ceremonies of heaven and ancestors on the holy mountain and reconstructed the royal court.

His tactics of forming alliances and making divisive alliances were so powerful that he could be considered a hero.

"…Central Plains people."

"Humph, these people are all stupid. With their abilities, can they become Khan?"

"They are just relying on the blood of their ancestors. Such people must have a leader to lead them. Otherwise, they will just be a joke."

"And who else can lead them besides me?"

Although he was attacking the Wolf King on the surface and secretly formed an alliance with the Wolf King, he had no intention of fighting Li Guanyi to the death.

Fight to the death? Even if you win, won't you still be helping the Wolf King?
He was not a brave overlord like Tuyuhun.

Helian Bo was cunning and clever, and planned to put pressure on Anxi City from behind. If Anxi City defeated the Wolf King, then his coalition forces of hundreds of thousands from the Western Regions would press forward, putting pressure on Anxi City and giving the Wolf King a break.

If the Wolf King is getting stronger with age, he will retreat and allow the troops in Anxi City to fully gather their strength to continue fighting the Wolf King. What he wants is for the Western Region to be in chaos and weakened. Then he will lead the royal court and swallow up all the titles such as 'Pingying Khan', 'Mengen Khan', etc. that were conferred by the Wolf King.

In this way, he can also, little by little, reassemble his dignity and build his own reputation.

His capital, Tongwan City, says it all.

To unify the city of all things!

"Today's sacrifice to Changshengtian marks the beginning of our hegemony. The royal court has been established, so we won't wait for them!" He walked forward domineeringly. The old priests with white beards were frightened and said, "King, you can't be so disrespectful. The ceremony of sacrificing to Changshengtian has not yet ended."

"Eternal Heaven has not yet been able to enjoy the sacrifices we have offered."

Helian Bo said loudly: "We will build the royal court to recreate the majesty of the Tuyuhun overlord. I should be the one to offer sacrifices to Changshengtian--"

The old priest tried hard to stop the ambitious king.

However, Helian Bo swung the heavy knife at his waist and smashed it heavily on the old priest's head. His white hair was immediately stained with blood. He fell down in the wind and said, "King, you can't insult Changshengtian like this. Changshengtian will punish you."

"God's punishment?!"

Helian Bo said loudly:

"If there is divine punishment from the Eternal Heaven, then the Wolf King let all the generals betray us in the name of the Eternal Heaven, and then burned them all to death. So why didn't the Eternal Heaven bring down divine punishment?!"

"We are the people of this Western Region, and the king is your god."

"If there is a God, let me see his military might!"

Before this, Li Guanyi had already identified the road. He asked his comrades to gather behind him. The Western Region’s ceremony of offering sacrifices to the sky was held in a flat place on the [Juxu Mountain] rather than on the top of the mountain. Li Guanyi and his companions went around and rushed down the mountain using the momentum of the mountain, enough to rush into the place of sacrifice in one breath.

From a high position, its power is irresistible.

Fan Qing, Qibili and others all began to breathe heavily, especially Qibili. As the new Khan of the nine Tiele tribes, he knew that the Tiele tribe's reputation had not been spread on this land for too long, and they were not even qualified to come to this holy mountain.

Wang Shunchen was thinking about the strategy for the world.

He was well aware that this surprise force had arrived here at this moment.

If they could break through here and completely destroy the rear of the Western Regions, it would have a terrifying impact on the front of the Western Regions. At this moment, hundreds of thousands of troops from the Western Regions have entered the vicinity of Anxi City.

Even the Wolf King tacitly acknowledged these as his allies.

In other words, now, those Western Region troops on the front line are indeed strategic allies of Wolf King Chen Fubi, but if Li Guanyi's troops can directly erase the premise of this alliance, that would be different.

What if these Western Region troops, who were tacitly regarded as allies by the Wolf King, suddenly turned against him in the battle.

At the critical moment, attack the wolf king...

Wang Shunchen's breathing became heavy.

Even if it only works once, it's enough!

This is a key chess piece that can bring about a drastic change in the entire stalemate situation, and even affect the course of the world. Now, the direction of the world will be affected by this army of more than 6,000 people.

For a famous general, such an event that goes down in history and influences the times through weapons has an indescribable feeling that is enough to make a man's heart surge and his blood boil.

Even Li Wanli, the Duke of Taiping, did not have such achievements at his age.

even……

Throughout history, how many generals have been able to achieve such great achievements?

Li Guanyi said: "Everyone, the time to attack Juxu Mountain is now."

"Sacrifice to the heavens and confer the gods, let us try it too."

He looked at the royal land with white smoke rising from it, raised his weapon, and said softly, "I will be your vanguard."

"I will personally fight against that general on behalf of you all, to show you that the destiny is with me."

Although the voice is soft, it has a heroic air.

Li Guanyi urged his warhorse, and Wang Shunchen, Fan Qing, Qibili, and Ling Pingyang followed behind him. The battle along the way finally came to the most critical moment. The speed increased instantly, taking advantage of the mountain terrain and the speed.

The momentum accumulated throughout the battles also exploded in an instant.

charge! charge!
Unprecedented, I wonder if there will be anyone who can achieve such success in the future!

The one who turned the world upside down!
Right now!

Helian Bo personally led the sacrifice with a very disrespectful look, intending to gradually replace everyone's belief in Changshengtian with his own majesty. This is not a simple matter and may require a lot of effort and a long time, but it must be done.

But at this moment, he suddenly heard a muffled thunder, which made him inexplicably familiar. The next moment, a chill broke out, and Helian Bo's pupils contracted violently. He subconsciously raised the thing in his hand and then drew out his sword.

The thrown sacrificial items shattered in an instant.

The white smoke rolled in the air, as if it was about to connect with the snow-capped mountains and white clouds. Helian Bo drew his sword, but he only had time to protect himself when he heard a crisp sound and his wrist shook violently, and he almost couldn't hold the sword at his waist.

His pupils contracted violently and he shouted:

"Enemy attack!!!"

Instinctively he rushed backwards.

My scalp was tingling, my brain was filled with disbelief, and my heart was beating wildly.

Someone?! Who?!
Who can come here, who is it, who has such martial arts! ?

Smoke and snow fog came and went, disrupting the vision ahead, until a flag pierced through the fog. The flag suddenly unfolded, and the next moment, Li Guanyi, wearing armor, had broken through the snow fog.

It was winter, the sky was far away and the white clouds were thick. At this altitude, the snow and fog stirred up by the energy generated by the arrows seemed to be connected to the sky. The warrior who broke through the snow and fog had his robe fluttering, like a god.

The high priest shouted: "It's Changshengtian, Changshengtian has brought down divine punishment!" Li Guanyi rode on Saluzi in front, raised his hand and grabbed, the Chixiao Sword and the Poyun Zhentian Bow appeared in his hands, and then he put the Chixiao Sword on the Poyun Zhentian Bow.

The loud whistling sound burst out again. While galloping, Li Guanyi forcibly controlled the two magical weapons and stabilized them under the coordination of the luck of Jiuzhou Ding. At this moment, Li Guanyi's strongest move appeared again.

【Shoot the Wolf】!!!
When he was at the seventh level, this move had already reached the eighth level.

Now that he had stepped into the Eighth Heaven, the power of this move surged again, and it seemed to have reached the ultimate level of the Eighth Heaven. Immediately, he shot it directly towards the sacrificial site without hesitation. The Chixiao Sword flew out and turned into a stream of light.

This time it won't be as unstable as last time.

After the Chixiao Sword was shot out, a boundless storm of sword energy suddenly burst out.

Instead of attacking the priests in front, they fell at the waist and bombarded the mountains directly. The snow in that area rumbled and bombarded downwards, blocking the reaction of these elite troops to a certain extent.

There are only a few elite troops in the sacrificial area.

Li Guanyi held the halberd in his hand, and at this point, he had nothing to say.

Only fight!

Only fighting!!!

He raised the weapon in his hand and whistled: "Wind!"

The people behind him shouted in response: "Strong wind!!!"

There were simple roars and the galloping of war horses. Everyone saw the army arrive here and fight back and forth. The khans and kings all fell down. Li Guanyi's blocking move was successful, but the other side had a large number of people and famous generals.

King Zuo Xian of the Western Region Royal Court Alliance led his army to the rescue.

Li Guan held the Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd in both hands. In the face of the trend of national destruction, Saluzi was as fierce as a dragon. He suddenly accelerated and galloped back and forth in this place of offering sacrifices to the sky in the Western Regions. The halberd in his hand stabbed left and right, and there was no chance of winning.

King Zuo Xian led his army to fight, and before the army could stabilize, he saw Li Guanyi coming with the momentum of destroying the country. His momentum was so fierce that no one could stop him. For a moment, he did not recognize who this general who suddenly appeared here was.

Relying on his martial arts prowess.

I could only grit my teeth and push forward to hold on to this person.

The Saluzi man stood up and roared like a dragon. Li Guanyi held the halberd in both hands and chopped down suddenly.

King Zuo Xian held his weapon in both hands.

Just one move and it came down with a bang.

The voice was as loud as thunder, and Zuo Xian Wang's bones and muscles were numb. He almost couldn't resist and shouted angrily: "I am Zuo Xian Wang of the Western Regions. Who are you? How dare you come here and act so presumptuous!"

Li Guanyi knew that if the enemy's army gathered, his six thousand men would surely be destroyed.

This was a blitzkrieg that took the enemy by surprise. Li Guanyi knew that he couldn't fight to the death with a force that was ten times smaller than his opponent's. So he stood up and held his weapon with both hands. He roared like a tiger and looked down on them: "Me?"

"I am your heaven!"

No need to regulate breathing, no pause.

The situation in the Western Regions was at a stalemate, but they galloped thousands of miles along the way, beheading generals, capturing cities, and fighting more than thirty battles, big and small. They were victorious in every battle and conquered every city, and subdued all the Khans, Chanyus, and kings. Li Guanyi started from Anxi City and traveled thousands of miles in one breath.

At this point, the outbreak!
Cut it down with one halberd.

I just feel so refreshed!
King Zuo Xian tried to block it, but because of his own seventh-level power, his army was not prepared in advance and was not in a battle state at all. Also, when Li Guanyi shot the first arrow, he did not concentrate the army formation on himself.

Although there were tens of thousands of troops, they were actually like nothingness. They were fighting each other. Six thousand elite soldiers from Anxi City were galloping back and forth, and seventy thousand coalition forces from the Western Regions were fighting. Suddenly, they saw the body of Zuo Xian King frozen, and the general in armor and robe raised his halberd.

Zuo Xian Wang suddenly vomited blood and fell to the ground. A master-level general fell because of Li Guanyi's sudden charge and incredible appearance. Li Guanyi exhaled, raised his eyes and looked at the gathered army.

He moved his wrist, swung his spear horizontally, and Zuo Xian Wang's head flew into the sky.

With the power to destroy a country.

Kill again!

Like a god, there was deathly silence all around. Li Guanyi pulled the reins, and Saluzi stepped on the thunder, staring at the frightened generals and the army. His troops gathered together, and although there were only more than 6,000 people, they were as turbulent as thunder, rushing forward with a bang.

I want it, front!
Conquer the Western Regions completely!
With more than 6,000 people and great momentum, this mixed army of people from the Western Regions and the Central Plains left their own cities, rushed thousands of miles, and then fought a fierce battle with the elite troops in the rear of the Western Regions under the greatest holy mountain in the Western Regions.

When the dawn rises and the battle ends, it is time to offer sacrifices to the heavens.

The ground of the Holy Mountain was stained red with blood.

He engaged in battle with Zuo Xian Wang and captured more than 70,000 Hu captives, including 32 foreign kings. All of Zuo Xian Wang's generals fled far away. The other kings were terrified and knelt down, unable to look up. Those who did not submit to him were called Hu Man.

After that, he fled far away, and there was no royal court south of Mu.

————"Historical Records·Chronicle Volume 1"

Li Guanyi exhaled a breath of foul air, he turned over and dismounted, his combat boots stepping on the blood-stained mud. His combat robe was originally white, but after experiencing the fighting and battles over this period of time, it had long turned into a blood-red color. He strode to the place where the gods were worshipped.

The priests of the Western Regions had already looked pale, but some of them showed enthusiasm. The kings of the Western Regions showed fear on their faces. Some recognized Li Guanyi and exclaimed, "Heaven, Tianger..."

The fighting spirit collapsed again.

Helian Bo of Tongwan City had a tense expression on his face. He suddenly jumped up, drew his sword, and was about to pounce on the silver-haired girl next to Li Guanyi, but the next moment, a cold light swept by, and the Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd had already chopped down.

The sword in the hand of Shatuo King Helianbo was directly shattered!
The Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd chopped down and embedded itself into his shoulder bone. The overlord-level physique and the eighth-level foundation directly chopped down the body of this hero who stirred up the Western Regions. He knelt on the ground with a pale face and large drops of cold sweat dripping down.

The Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd pressed down, almost splitting Shatuo King Helian Bo in half.

King Shatuo still gritted his teeth and shouted: "Tianger's bravery is as great as ever. However, this is the sacred mountain of my Western Regions. This is where our warriors of the Western Regions offer sacrifices to the Eternal Heaven. You are a traveling merchant from the Central Plains and have no right to come here!"

Li Guanyi's elite troops, like divine soldiers descended from the sky, appeared in the most remote and core area of ​​the Western Regions at an incredible time and in an incredible way. As long as people think about the hundreds of nobles from various tribes in the Western Regions who have never appeared here, they will know how they came.

Go deep into the enemy's territory alone and cross thousands of miles!
He killed Zuo Xian Wang again in battle.

What a divine power!

The generals and khans of the Western Regions felt an extremely strong sense of oppression just by thinking about such bravery. Apart from awe, no other thoughts arose in their hearts.

Helian Bo also knew this.

He wanted to stir up the reverence for offering sacrifices to heaven in the hearts of the Western Regions generals and the Khans of various tribes, and inspire them to be disloyal. The general wearing the red-stained battle robe asked, "A sacrifice to heaven?"

Helian Bodao:

“Yes, only the orthodox ones can offer sacrifices to the heavens and come to my holy land!”

Li Guanyi said: "Really? That's perfect then."

He suddenly raised his hand, holding a seal.

The Golden Seal of the Tiger King!

The real seal of Tuyuhun, the overlord of the Western Regions, which was revered as orthodox by these so-called royal courts. All the kings and Khans of the Western Regions were stunned, looking at the general who was like a god descending from heaven. Li Guanyi inserted his halberd into the ground and threw the seal away.

The Golden Tiger Seal fell on the table in front of the altar. Li Guanyi held the halberd in his hand, stood between the vast sky and earth of the Western Regions, looked at the vast holy mountain in front of him, and said, "Since this seal represents the orthodoxy of the Western Regions."

"Then I will also participate in the heaven sacrifice."

"Everyone..."

"Any suggestions?"

The priests were very supportive, but the chief priest was still old and sophisticated. He was shocked, terrified, and reverent, but he still said stubbornly: "To worship the gods, we need to dance to entertain them. We can't dance here anymore. Why don't we hold the sacrifice next time?"

Li Guanyi wanted to take advantage of the situation to completely subdue the kings of the Western Regions.

The young prince lowered his eyes slightly and said, "Continue to offer sacrifices to the heaven."

"As for the dancers."

He held the weapon and raised it. The halberd was lifted from Helianbo's shoulder, causing Helianbo's face to twist. The young Central Plains general looked calmly at the kings and Khan kneeling on the ground in front of him and said:

"I'll trouble you kings. Khan will dance for me to entertain the gods."

"I myself—"

"Seal the mountain and offer sacrifices to the heavens!"
