Chapter 395: Those who died for their country and those who fled, Dengzhou City was conquered in one battle
"Du Biaoying, follow me!"
Yang Wenyue gritted his teeth and immediately led the army to kill. He and 30,000 soldiers from the Du Biao Camp transformed into a magical crane. Instead of retreating, they advanced and leaped into the sky, heading towards the dark yellow bell that had just arrived at the water gate tower in the north city of Dengzhou!
The enemy and our side were moving towards each other at lightning speed and collided with each other in an instant.
"Oh!"
The dark yellow bell, which was three times larger than the divine crane in both aura and size, was violently impacted, and the divine crane, which was less than two hundred feet in size, was knocked away on the spot!
"puff!"
The 30,000 government soldiers, including Yang Wenyue, were thrown backwards in the air, spitting blood. They could no longer maintain the military killing formation and were forced to dissolve the formation. The 30,000 soldiers who emerged were weak and severely injured!
"Dong dong..."
The thrilling bell rang, and sound waves penetrated directly into the enemy's soul, directly invading the enemy's sea of consciousness, and in an instant, the souls of the 30,000 soldiers of the Du Biao Camp were all shattered!
"No!"
"ah!"……
In just one encounter, all 30,000 warriors and soldiers of the Du Biao Camp, one of the strongest fighting forces in Dengzhou City, were wiped out, leaving Yang Wenyue, who was still unable to control his body and was thrown backwards in the air, with his eyes bloodshot and screaming hysterically!
He did not even think about the fact that Li Dingguo, who had the sixth level of cultivation, was personally leading warriors with a number that was twice that of the soldiers in the Du Biao Camp, and forming a military killing formation to attack. How could Yang Wenyue, with his 30,000 officers and soldiers, be able to confront them head-on?
This kind of reckless behavior is like an egg hitting a stone, it can't even last one round!
Not to mention him, even Huang Taiji did not dare to be so arrogant and personally lead an army of 30,000 soldiers to confront the 60,000 soldiers led by Li Dingguo head-on.
This is not courage, but seeking death!
As he was thrown into the air vomiting blood, Yang Wenyue looked around the battlefield, but was shocked and angry to find that Chen Hongfan had led his 30,000 soldiers and 20,000 naval officers and soldiers to flee towards the South Gate!
"Chen Hongfan, you disrespect the emperor's grace, and you will not die a good death!"
Yang Wenyue was so angry that he spit out blood and cursed loudly.
"Boom!"
At this time, the dark yellow bell continued to shoot forward and directly hit Yang Wenyue, who had lost the protection of the military formation. It instantly blew him up on the spot and turned him into a blood mist that drifted away.
As long as he is an enemy and dares to resist to the end, Li Dingguo will not care who you are and will kill you without any hesitation.
Li Dingguo deeply believed that being kind to the enemy was being cruel to oneself.
After killing the enemy commander who was in the middle stage of level five, and the 30,000 government troops he led in one blow, the dark yellow bell presided over by Li Dingguo not only did not stop, but shot out at an even faster speed, sweeping towards the hundreds of thousands of servants and guards gathered by the nearby aristocratic families, wealthy merchants and tycoons who had completely collapsed!
"Dong dong..."
The pervasive sound of the bell enveloped an area of several miles in radius. The enemy warriors who had no military formation to protect them were like leeks being violently harvested. Their souls in the sea of consciousness were instantly destroyed, and they fell to the spot with blood gushing from all their seven orifices.
Li Dingguo hated the servants and guards of these wealthy families and would not even think of sparing their lives.
This kind of people, who rely on the power of others, have done countless evil things and are destined to be killed by Li Dingguo.
The more these national scum die, the more beneficial it will be for the future development of the Han people.
With the huge population base of the Han people today, it won’t take a few years for the dead population to recover and be replenished, so there is nothing to regret.
At this time, the two armies led by Xiao Shitou and He Lijing launched a military killing formation and quickly passed by Li Dingguo's vicinity one after another.
Three huge phantoms of divine beasts launched a violent slaughter and pursuit on the fleeing enemy warriors.
The busiest creature at this time is the golden eagle patrolling in the sky.
The Jin Dynasty, which had already received orders from Li Dingguo, used its air superiority to slaughter all human warriors, spiritual birds and spiritual beasts who wanted to escape from the city.
With its current sixth-level cultivation, the speed it exerted at full strength was faster than lightning, and it turned into a stream of light that flashed and flew around in and out of the Dengzhou city.
No matter whether it was a human warrior or a spirit pigeon or other spirit bird that wanted to send a message to the outside world, they could all be easily shot in the head with one claw. No target it targeted could escape its random attack.
"Sir General, we can't escape at all!"
"With that big golden eagle watching from the sky, it's impossible for so many of us to escape from the enemy's pursuit!"
Deputy General Chen Jianfeng saw the dark yellow bell in the rear, which was about to catch up with his army, and hurriedly shouted to Chen Hongfan who was fleeing for his life.
"Hurry! Hurry up and catch up!"
Chen Hongfan was so frightened that his soul almost left his body. His eyes rolled around and suddenly he saw the inner river in front of him. His eyes lit up and said, "Let's jump into the water and escape. We should go upstream along the current and dive out of the city through the North City Water Gate!"
"Our Dengzhou City is very different from other towns in Daming. This inland river can lead directly to the sea in the north. It is God's help!"
He was overjoyed and immediately exerted all his strength. After a few leaps, he reached the edge of the river. He jumped into the water and dived underwater with all his strength.
As for how many of his 50,000 soldiers could escape, that was not something he considered.
Even after this battle, some of his family members who stayed in the city would most likely not survive, but it didn't matter.
Chen Hongfan had already made preparations for his family's safety.
Even before January, he had secretly transported most of his family and property out of the city and hid them in a remote town nearby.
As long as he could escape, there would be no problem in hiding his identity and becoming a rich man.
Because the dark yellow bell chasing from behind was too fast, even though there was a way to survive right in front of them, most of the government troops following Chen Hongfan were too late to escape by jumping into the water even if they wanted to.
They all thought quickly and quickly put down their weapons, squatted on the ground, raised their hands high, and surrendered.
"If you don't want to die, squat on the ground and don't move!"
"Wait a moment, someone will come to take you away!"
As for these ordinary officers and soldiers, since they had already surrendered, Li Dingguo naturally would not kill them. He immediately shouted loudly while controlling the military killing formation to pass over their heads.
As for these prisoners, after the war, there will naturally be relevant professionals to screen them, and whether they should die will be determined by the surrender rules and regulations formulated by the Restoration Army.
Seeing that they would not be killed if they surrendered immediately, the nearly 50,000 soldiers on the scene breathed a sigh of relief, quickly discarded their weapons, raised their hands and squatted on the ground, not daring to move again. They were truly frightened.
These soldiers had never encountered such a one-sided battle in their lives. Facing the enemy, they didn't even have the energy to resist.
They had seen the 30,000 soldiers led by Yang Wenyue, who were slaughtered before they could even hold out for a single blow.
This can no longer be described as a mantis trying to stop a chariot, but rather a complete crushing by the Fusion Army.
Under the attack of the army led by Li Dingguo himself, no matter how many mobs there were, they were of no use at all and were just seeking their own deaths.
This is how it is in the world of practitioners.
Once the gap in strength between the enemy and us is too great, the human wave tactic becomes a joke and is of no use.
If the destiny of this great world continues to change drastically and the spiritual energy fully recovers, in a few decades, there is a possibility that a terrifying situation will arise where one person can defeat an entire country.
Li Dingguo could spare these ordinary soldiers at his discretion, but he would never let go of the hundreds of thousands of servants and guards raised by the aristocratic families and wealthy merchants.
The military killing array led by him, Xiao Shitou and He Lijing swept towards many directions in the city. They ignored the desperate servants and guards who were crying for mercy. Anyone they met would be killed.
Even Li Dingguo did not expect that this battle would be so dramatic.
The city of Dengzhou, which was guarded by a million enemy warriors, collapsed so quickly that the enemy lost their fighting spirit as soon as the city defense formation was breached.
The soldiers of the Fusion Army are already accustomed to such things as kicking a drowning dog, and have rich experience in dealing with them, so they don't have to be too skilled in handling them.
As the large fleet of the Restoration Army on the sea outside the city had entered the city through the opened North City Water Gate and completely occupied the navy camp in the city, the victory of this battle was already a foregone conclusion.
However, the city of Dengzhou was too large, with a radius of nearly 100 miles. Li Dingguo personally led his soldiers in a large-scale pursuit and purge that lasted for a full day and night before finally ending this one-sided massacre.
It took so long, not only to clean up the hundreds of thousands of servants and guards who fled, but mainly because it carried out a thorough cleansing of the disharmonious forces in the city, such as the aristocratic families, wealthy merchants, gangs, casinos, brothels, etc.
With two level six warriors, Li Dingguo and Da Jin, in charge, and absolute air superiority, even if the enemy forces fought desperately, they could not make any waves and were quickly wiped out one by one.
Especially those hostile forces in the city that were personally attacked by Li Dingguo, Li Dingguo activated his own divine weapon, the Xuanhuang Chaos Bell, and launched several waves of full-force attacks, which shattered the souls of the enemy warriors at all levels who had no military protection, and the entire clan was wiped out with blood from all seven orifices.
The Xuanhuang Chaos Bell, Li Dingguo's innate divine weapon, has become increasingly powerful. Its power is now extremely terrifying. It can be called a powerful weapon for group attacks and is hard to defend against.
As long as low-level practitioners do not have a powerful military formation or their own divine artifact to protect them, no matter how many there are, it will be useless and they will only be courting death.
Especially since Li Dingguo was a great master of alchemy, he always carried with him enough top-grade elixirs to restore his internal energy and blood strength. His sustained attack power was beyond the imagination of most people.
"Great Commander!"
After the shouts and screams in the city had completely subsided for a while, Little Stone leapt to Li Dingguo and reported, "The battle is over. This Dengzhou city has officially fallen into our hands. All the enemy warriors in the city were killed, but the Denglai General Chen Hongfan and more than a hundred of his trusted generals escaped."
Little Stone said somewhat dissatisfiedly, "Even some of the family members of Yang Wenyue, the governor of Denglai, are missing."
"These guys are too cunning. When they see the situation is not good, they immediately run away. Although the Great Jin is powerful, it cannot keep all the enemies."
"According to preliminary statistics, including those aristocratic families, wealthy merchants, and the enemy who escaped this battle, there are thousands of people. It can be said that the battle was not a complete success."
Although he felt a little regretful, Xiao Shitou also knew that the huge city of Dengzhou had a total population of nearly 10 million, and the population of the hostile forces was nearly 2 million.
With so many enemies fleeing in all directions in the chaos, and our side not being able to quickly seize control of the city defense formation and seal off the city, it was impossible to intercept and kill them all.
"It's harmless."
Li Dingguo shook his head and said, "After our army has completely occupied the two states of Deng and Lai, we will immediately launch a thorough cleansing."
"The monk may escape, but the temple cannot. These remnants of evil will not be able to cause much trouble in the future."
"After the subsequent government officials take over this city, our army will immediately split into two groups, led by you and He Lijing respectively, to launch a large-scale attack on the nearby towns."
"Tomorrow I will set off with Da Jin, head south to join Wan'er, and then destroy the pirate group formed by Geng Zhongming, Geng Jingzhong, Kong Youde, Jia Huiqin, and Jia Huizhi as soon as possible."
"If we don't kill these mortal enemies as soon as possible, they will very likely become a serious threat to our army in the future."
"If this kind of guy with no bottom line flees south, whether he goes to join Zheng Zhilong or the white barbarians, he will pose a great threat to our army."
Li Dingguo knew very well that these mortal enemies, who had great luck, would not have any moral integrity and would do anything.
If you don't kill the snake, you will suffer from it.
Li Dingguo attached more importance to this pirate group formed by several big traitors than the previous battle of Dengzhou Prefecture.
This time we cannot let these traitors escape again. We must kill them with our own hands and make their souls shattered and unable to be reborn.
"Commander-in-chief, don't worry!"
Little Stone patted his chest and said confidently, "After the battle that just ended, more than half of the aristocratic families, wealthy merchants and tycoons in the entire Dengzhou area have been killed. The remaining towns can't stop our Renaissance Army soldiers from sweeping across the land and sea!"
"In less than two months, as our three armies continue to divide their forces and sweep in multiple directions, the entire Denglai region will be completely under the control of our Renaissance Army!"
After several months of leading the battle, the experienced Xiao Shitou has truly grown up.
His innate talent is no worse than Cao Yongxiang and Hong Mei, and now he is more and more confident. He is not bragging, but speaking the truth.
The two then discussed some miscellaneous matters, then separated and went their separate ways.
This huge city of Dengzhou Prefecture had just been captured, and there were still a lot of things that needed to be dealt with in order to restore order in the city as soon as possible and to carry out a massive round of transformation and construction in accordance with the Renaissance Army's usual governance model.
