Chapter 406: The Qing Dynasty was founded, and the world was shocked
Three days later, on February 2, at the Temple of Heaven Square outside the Shengjing Imperial City.
On the altar which was ninety-nine feet high, Huang Taiji prayed to heaven and earth and announced the establishment of the Qing Dynasty. Suddenly, lightning and thunder flashed in the sky, and strong winds howled!
"Roar!"
A five-clawed black dragon phantom quickly took shape above the altar, raising its head and roaring!
This black dragon is ninety-nine and eighty-one feet long and nine feet thick. It is as black and shiny as a substance, and looks awe-inspiring.
It is transformed from the ethnic fortune of the Later Jin clan, and it gathers the fortune of the entire Later Jin clan, making it look majestic and domineering.
"Duh!"
Huang Taiji was delighted when he saw this, and threw out his own innate magical weapon, the Xuanyuan Water Controlling Flag, at the huge black dragon.
The Xuanyuan Water-Controlling Flag was rolled up by the dragon's tail, and in the blink of an eye it was refined by the big black dragon that was connected to Huang Taiji's destiny. It then floated above its head, turning into a size of a hundred feet, and sent down a series of azure light curtains that firmly protected the dragon's body.
With an innate top-grade magical artifact protecting it, the big black dragon's power surged. It leaped up into the sky, and instantly rushed into the huge, ink-black cloud that had gathered in the sky!
"Crackling..."
Countless flashes of lightning flashed in the clouds, and one after another, lightning struck the black dragon!
This is the test of thunder and lightning sent by heaven and earth when establishing a dynasty of destiny.
If they cross the river, they will naturally be able to successfully establish a country. Otherwise, they will fail and the fortune of the Later Jin clan will be greatly damaged.
As Huang Taiji and millions of Later Jin soldiers were watching on the scene, the big black dragon, protected by the innate top-grade artifact Xuanyuan Water Controlling Flag, calmly endured the baptism of waves of thunder and lightning.
The Xuanyuan Water-Controlling Flag is indeed an innate top-grade divine artifact. Under the urging of the Black Dragon of Luck, its power is at least a hundred times greater than that in the hands of Huang Taiji. It easily blocks wave after wave of lightning tests.
As everyone watched anxiously, the nine waves of thunder tribulations, although each one was stronger than the last, were simply unable to break through the defenses of the Xuanyuan Water Controlling Flag, let alone cause any damage to the black dragon of luck.
As the thunder tribulation ended, the black clouds in the sky dissipated without a trace, and a brilliant golden light descended from the sky, enveloping Huang Taiji and the black dragon of destiny. They looked like gods and demons, which was amazing.
"I, the founding emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji, announce to the world that the Qing Dynasty has been officially established!"
"Appoint Borjigit Bumbutai as the Empress of the Qing Dynasty!"
"Appoint Daishan as Prince Li, and Dorgon as Prince Heshuo Rui..."
Next, Huang Taiji began to lavishly confer titles on his ministers, including Heshuo Prince, Duolo County Prince, Duolo Baylor, Gushan Baylor, Feng'en Zhenguo Duke, Feng'en Fuguo Duke, Zhenguo Duke who was not in the top eight, Fuguo Duke who was not in the top eight, Zhenguo General, Fuguo General, Fengguo General, and Feng'en General.
At this founding ceremony, it took nearly an hour just to reward the officials.
At the end of the founding ceremony, when the newly crowned national guardian beast Black Dragon King and nine other big dragons accepted their rewards and settled in the Qianlong Pool of the dynasty, it was declared over.
The lights were already on, and the entire imperial city was decorated with lights and colors. The state banquet, which lasted for three days without interruption, began.
The Mongolian leaders who were invited were shocked when they saw the nine level six black dragons. They finally put away the little thoughts that had emerged in their minds after Huang Taiji was defeated by Li Dingguo, and remained silent.
They knew very well that after the Later Jin clan, which was originally the overlord of the grassland, officially established its country, they had the help of nine level six dragons that could fly into the sky and into the sea, as well as the wise ruler Huang Taiji. They did not have the confidence to disobey them.
I heard that the big bandit Li Dingguo and his Fuxing Army were very powerful inside the Great Wall. If the Qing Dynasty wanted to become truly powerful, it had to first defeat Li Dingguo's Fuxing Army.
Even though the Qing Dynasty had the help of the Jiaolong Clan, these Mongolian tribes were still somewhat worried and were not sure that Li Dingguo and the Fuxing Army inside the Great Wall would be defeated by the Qing Dynasty.
After all, in the previous battle, the two million troops of the Later Jin clan were defeated so badly that they were almost wiped out.
Huang Taiji knew at a glance the little thoughts of these Mongolian leaders, and although he was annoyed in his heart, he did not lose his temper.
This is also normal.
All the tribes on the grassland have always respected the strong.
If the Qing Dynasty wanted to truly make the other party surrender, it had to start its war of revenge against Li Dingguo as soon as possible and successfully defeat Li Dingguo and the Fuxing Army.
……
At the edge of the Qianlong Pond deep in the Shengjing Imperial City, the Black Flood Dragon King opened his mouth and sucked hard. A large barrel of level two spiritual rice wine in front of him turned into a white chain and poured into his big mouth.
"Huchi..."
After drinking a large barrel of spiritual rice wine in one gulp, the Black Dragon King burped with satisfaction and said to Huang Taiji, "This spiritual rice wine is quite good. Huang Taiji, please prepare more for me in the future."
These magical rice wines brewed by Han winemakers using magical rice are not only treasures of the Later Jin clan, but also the favorite of the Black Dragon clan.
However, the Qing Dynasty was very short of this kind of spiritual food, and was unable to brew it in large quantities.
Huang Taiji was so distressed when he saw the Black Dragon King gulp down a barrel of Level 2 Spiritual Rice Wine that he almost wanted to vomit blood. However, he had to explain, "Black Dragon King, this kind of spiritual wine requires a large amount of spiritual rice of all levels to brew. It is difficult for our Qing Dynasty to meet your requirement of several barrels a day."
"However, after your clan helps our Great Qing Dynasty to capture the rich lands within the Great Wall, you can drink as much as you want."
He was well aware of the Black Flood King's arrogance, so he simply said it bluntly.
Huang Taiji was not lying, but telling the truth.
Once the Qing Dynasty replaces the Ming Dynasty within the Great Wall in the future, there will be no problem in using the vast territory to produce a large amount of spiritual plants and provide spiritual wine for the Black Dragon clan to drink.
"Huang Taiji, you can rest assured!"
The Black Flood Dragon King assured nonchalantly, "You are not unaware of the powerful fighting power of our clan. Even among all the dragon clans, our Black Flood Dragon Clan is known for its strong fighting power."
"No matter how powerful Li Dingguo and the Fuxing Army are, can they be a match for our clan?"
"At the end of this year, I will follow your army westward and kill and eat Li Dingguo, no problem."
It's not just bragging, but it's really possible.
Huang Taiji had fought with it several times, and even with the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, it couldn't last a single round.
If it weren't for the protection of his natal divine weapon, the Black Dragon King would have easily killed Huang Taiji with just one move.
The Black Flood Dragon Clan was already renowned for its combat power among all the other dragon clans, not to mention the Black Flood Dragon King who had lived for thousands of years and had already reached the peak of level six.
Now that he has the fortune of the Qing Dynasty to offset his own karma, the Black Dragon King can kill human warriors at will without worrying about the backlash of karma. His combat power is far superior to that of the sixth-level human warriors of the same level.
Even if the Black Dragon King lay on the ground motionless and allowed Huang Taiji to attack it, it would not be harmed in the slightest without the help of a large-scale military killing formation.
There is no way. The physical defense of the Black Flood Dragon King, who is at the peak of level six, is too strong.
Unless Huang Taiji also breaks through to the peak level of level six and uses his innate magical weapon, he can defeat the Black Dragon King or even kill it.
King Hei Jiao thought that no matter how powerful Li Dingguo, whom Huang Taiji mentioned, was, he could never be his opponent.
How great it would be to kill the opponent and obtain at least one of his innate divine artifacts!
These various dragon tribes are entangled in karma for various reasons, and they simply do not have enough luck to obtain any innate divine artifacts or innate spiritual roots in this world.
It’s not that they don’t want to get it, but they are limited by their own luck and karma. They can’t even see this kind of treasure, let alone get it.
Now that it has become the guardian beast of the Qing Dynasty, the karma problem that has been bothering the Black Dragon King has been solved, and it will no longer be a factor that restricts it in the future.
If it now encountered an innate divine weapon, it would be normal for it to seize it and refine it for its own use.
What's more, it had already discussed the details of the distribution of the spoils with Huang Taiji, and learned from Huang Taiji that Li Dingguo now had at least three artifacts, two of which were top-level innate artifacts. This was undoubtedly a big surprise.
Thinking of this, the Black Dragon King was even a little impatient. No wonder time passed quickly, and the time for Huang Taiji to lead the army to the west again was coming soon. At that time, with a top-level innate artifact obtained from Li Dingguo, who in the world could be his opponent? It was only natural for him to dominate the dragon tribes and become the king.
Become the true king of dragons in the four seas!
Just thinking about it makes it excited.
"By the way, Huang Taiji, this time in the founding war of the Qing Dynasty, you chose to target the Goguryeo Dynasty. Do you want me to attack personally?"
The Black Flood Dragon King asked again.
"That's not necessary,"
Huang Taiji smiled contemptuously and said, "Goguryeo is just a small dynasty. It has always been arrogant, but in fact it is vulnerable. There is no need for you and me to go out in person."
"Let Hauge lead the two yellow flags and the two blue flags of Amin and Manggurtai."
"Because we don't have enough time left this year, there's no need to destroy the country in this war. Our army can enter the country and plunder as much as we want to obtain the huge amount of money, food and supplies we want."
"It is imperative to eliminate Li Dingguo and the Fuxing Army as soon as possible."
"Li Dingguo's luck is extraordinary. The Fuxing Army he founded has grown too fast. We must not give them time to continue their rapid expansion, otherwise they will become too powerful to control."
Huang Taiji knew clearly that in this vast eastern land, only the rapidly rising Li Dingguo and the Fuxing Army were the real threats to the future of the Qing Dynasty.
As for completely destroying or annexing Goguryeo, there is no need to rush.
Goguryeo is just a king of big talk, its strength is insignificant, and there is no need to worry about it at all.
Even the Ming Dynasty was the same. The country had long been corrupt to the extreme. It had unlimited war potential but was unable to use it. It was rapidly moving towards an endless abyss and would soon collapse.
"Is Goguryeo so weak?"
"Forget it, whatever you say, I'll do."
After hearing this, the Black Dragon King shook his head in disappointment and said no more.
It hasn't killed any enemies for so many years, and it's thinking about killing some human Qi Refining masters to satisfy its desire.
However, it was also clear about Huang Taiji's concerns, which was that he did not want to waste the fortune of the Qing Dynasty unnecessarily and cause the country's destiny to weaken.
After all, Huang Taiji's magical weapon to stabilize the country's fortune was taken away by Li Dingguo. The country's fortune is now very weak and cannot be suppressed at all. The less national fortune can be wasted, the better.
This situation can only be improved after Li Dingguo is killed, the national treasure is taken back, and the national and ethnic fortunes are suppressed.
Only with the magical artifact to suppress the luck of the country, can the national fortune of the Qing Dynasty be rapidly increased through continuous conquests and even wars of annihilation, thus exerting the magical effect of using national fortune to assist cultivation.
Only then will the Black Dragon King have the opportunity to take advantage of the increasingly powerful fortune of the Qing Dynasty and, with the protection of his innate life artifact, try to break through to the spirit refining realm in one fell swoop, and even transform into a dragon.
After a while, Huang Taiji stood up, said goodbye to the Black Dragon King, and flew towards the Da Zheng Palace.
Tomorrow is the founding battle of the Qing Dynasty and the start of the war against Goguryeo. Huang Taiji needs to personally check the soldiers' preparations to avoid any omissions.
As for the eastern expedition army led by Hauge, can it defeat Goguryeo?
This is not a problem at all.
With Goguryeo's strength, it was unable to stop the Qing Dynasty's million-strong elite army from sweeping across the country, and could only suffer repeated defeats.
After all, Goguryeo was just a dynasty that had enjoyed peace for a long time. Its upper class was extremely corrupt and decadent, and its military strength was not worth mentioning. Its combat effectiveness was far inferior to that of the Liaodong border troops of the Ming Dynasty. It was no match for the million-strong army led by Hauge.
The Goguryeo clan reached its peak of glory during the Han Chinese Sui Dynasty nearly ten thousand years ago.
Afterwards, it declined rapidly and never recovered, becoming just a vassal state under the Ming Dynasty.
Like the Ming Dynasty, Goguryeo's top leaders have long been corrupt and are a loose group of people, so there is no need to worry about them at all.
……
"Huang Taiji established a country so quickly?"
"He used the power of his life artifact, the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, to easily pass the test of the heaven and earth thunder tribulation that was required to establish a country?"
Li Dingguo, who had just gone south with Wan'er to inspect the city of Suide, where three rivers meet, received a report from the Military Intelligence Department in a timely manner and was a little surprised.
According to established history, Huang Taiji officially established the Qing Dynasty in late autumn of this year, but now it has been advanced by more than half a year.
Li Dingguo knew that this incident was most likely caused by himself.
In order to defeat himself and the Fuxing Army, Huang Taiji, this heroic genius, would definitely find ways to greatly enhance the fortune of the Later Jin clan, in order to gain the favor of heaven and quickly improve his strength.
Establishing a dynasty of fortune is undoubtedly the best way to improve one's fortune.
In this way, it is understandable that Huang Taiji was eager to establish his country.
"Brother, all of us hiding in Shengjing City in Liaodong witnessed with our own eyes that on the day when the Later Jin Tartars established their country, nine level six black dragons flew from Changbai Mountain and were conferred by Huang Taiji as the guardian beasts of the Later Jin clan!"
After reviewing the intelligence she had just received, Wan'er said in shock, "It turns out that Huang Taiji had already persuaded the nine black dragons entrenched in the Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain to form an alliance. This is the trump card they have been hiding all along!"
"It's so dangerous!"
She exclaimed with some fear, "Fortunately, when Huang Taiji led his army to attack the pass, he did not bring the nine level six dragons with him. Otherwise, we would have had to wake up the little golden dragon in time to deal with it."
When the war broke out with Huang Taiji, the Fuxing Army was not as powerful as it is now. There were even only two early level six masters, Li Dingguo and Cao Bianjiao, who were unable to stop the attack of the black dragon clan that could fly into the sky and into the sea.
At that time, even if Li Dingguo used the help of his own divine weapon and the military killing formation, he could only protect himself at most, and it is very likely that he would not be a match for the Black Dragon clan.
After all, the Black Dragon King has reached the peak of level six, and he even has two late level six dragons under his command.
The key is that they can fly, and even their own air advantage is gone. The golden eagles and other magical birds will definitely not be the opponents of those big dragons.
"Humph!"
Li Dingguo's eyes were stern, and he said in a cold voice, "This is the fate of the Later Jin clan, which is not as good as ours. We have survived the disaster without any danger."
"Huang Taiji thus missed the only chance to defeat our Fuxing Army, and is doomed to fail in the future!"
He knew clearly that it was most likely his own good luck that played a key role in causing Huang Taiji to make a misjudgment and thus suffer a disastrous defeat.
"The Later Jin Tartars now have nine level six black dragons as their support, so what?"
"It just so happens that we haven't eaten dragon meat yet. It looks like we'll get our wish soon!"
To be honest, Li Dingguo was also quite shocked after receiving this shocking information.
He never imagined that Huang Taiji had such a powerful trump card in his hand, it was simply unbelievable.
Today, the power of the Restoration Army has increased dramatically, and they have learned about the opponent's trump card, so they are naturally nothing to fear.
Huang Taiji had no idea that he had a killer weapon that could specifically restrain the Jiaolong clan. When the two armies met next time, the Tartar army would probably be defeated even more miserably than the last time.
