The Holy Emperor of Ming

Chapter 303: The Way of the Warrior Reaches the Pinnacle
Early the next morning, the 250,000-strong army dispersed and went in all directions.

The largest group, 50,000 cavalry, headed straight for Bian Jing.

When the Ming army began to disperse, hundreds of miles to the west, Emperor Shitian and Wanyan Aguda did not return to Bian Jing, but had been gathering the defeated troops for the past two days.

They knew very well that nothing was more important than this right now.

Only by gathering enough defeated soldiers can the Jin Dynasty still have hope.

For this, Indra is willing to take a little risk.

In the past two days, Wanyan Aguda gathered 50,000 defeated soldiers and ordered them to continue to rush to Bianliang for rest.

They continued to stay where they were, gathering the next fleeing soldiers.

"In your opinion, how many defeated soldiers can be gathered?" Emperor Shitian couldn't help but ask.

He still looked arrogant, as if the defeat two days ago had no effect on him.

"Ancestor, in my grandson's opinion, you would be lucky if you can have 100,000." Wanyan Aguda said without hesitation, as if he had already considered this issue.

"One hundred thousand." Emperor Shitian frowned deeply, quite dissatisfied.

"Except for the divine general who escaped, the other six have disappeared. I'm afraid they were either killed or captured by the Ming army." Wanyan Aguda said again.

Hearing this, Emperor Shitian felt even more unhappy and couldn't help but glare at Wanyan Aguda.

waste.

A battle turned out like this.

Make this God embarrassed.

But Wanyan Aguda was his most outstanding descendant and his most important subordinate, so he could only endure it and said coldly: "With only 100,000 troops, what are you going to do next?"

"Ancestor, I think we can't confront the Ming army head-on next time.

After a few days of rest, we will immediately evacuate Bianjing and head north." Wanyan Aguda said decisively.

Indra nodded secretly, knowing that he could not fight anymore.

These trash will only put this God in danger.

"At the same time, we will contact the Liao Kingdom and jointly deal with the Ming army." Wanyan Aguda said again.

"Contact Liao and jointly fight against the Ming army?

Even if Liao agreed to join forces with us because of the Ming army, after defeating the Ming army, wouldn't Liao deal with our Great Jin?" Emperor Shitian looked at Wanyan Aguda questioningly.

"Therefore, we must make an agreement with the Liao Kingdom in advance that after defeating the Ming army, the Eastern Six Routes will still belong to our Great Jin, and the Liao Kingdom must not deal with our Great Jin." Wanyan Aguda said with a twinkling eye.

"If we withdraw from Song and stop interfering in Song territory, leaving Liao to face the threat of the Ming army alone, Liao will indeed agree to your condition.

But they may agree, but do you believe their promises?" Emperor Shitian said with his eyes slightly empty.

"My grandson naturally doesn't believe it." Wanyan Aguda immediately shook his head.

"Well, I'm not confused yet." Emperor Shitian said calmly.

"But my grandson has a way. After defeating the Ming army, the Liao Kingdom will first deal with the Southern Song Dynasty instead of us." Wanyan Aguda showed a confident smile.

Although his breath was a little weak at this time, he revealed an indomitable will.

"What method?" Emperor Shitian was slightly curious.

"The ancestors, Zhao Ji, Zhao Heng, and the royal relatives, nobles, and high-ranking officials of the Song Dynasty are all in our hands." Wanyan Aguda said with a meaningful smile.

Two days later, Wanyan Aguda gathered nearly 50,000 defeated soldiers one after another. He did not dare to stay any longer because the army led by Wang Shouren himself was about to arrive.

The two of them immediately led the last batch of defeated troops and headed towards Bian Jing.

Wang Shouren led 50,000 cavalry and followed behind without being in a hurry.

It was at this time that the news of this battle spread throughout the world.

The Liao Kingdom was one of the major forces that received this news the fastest.

The Liao high-ranking officials were silent for a while, all of them were heavy-hearted and angry, and felt very disappointed with the result.

"The Jin Kingdom was so incompetent that it was defeated so easily by the Ming Army!"

There were angry voices, and the voices of agreement rose and fell.

It’s not that they are very friendly to the Jin Kingdom, but the Ming army is a more terrifying enemy. Relatively speaking, they are more willing to face the Jin Kingdom.

What's more, the Jin Kingdom was defeated without causing any losses to the Ming army, which made them most uncomfortable.

Whenever both sides suffer losses, they will sing and dance.

“We must do our best to find out the losses suffered by the Jin Kingdom and see how much strength they still have.
We can also contact Jin Guo.

Now, we still need the Kingdom of Jin to stand in front of the Ming army." Finally, Yelu Deguang spoke.

···
The New Song Court, which has been called the Southern Song Dynasty by many people, was another major force that received the news the fastest.

That’s right, even though the New Song court was far less powerful than the Northern Song, it could still be considered a major force and could barely be called a great power.

Seeing the news, Emperor Zhao Gou and his ministers were shocked. They really couldn't imagine how the Jin army could be defeated so quickly.

Just a few months ago, the Song court, which was at the height of its power, had gathered most of its forces, but was defeated by the Jin army in Bianliang.

The Jin army at that time was so ferocious that even now they are frightened and terrified.

But how could an army of only a part of the Ming army be defeated so easily?

The Ming army suffered no losses and directly defeated the Jin army's 250,000 cavalry.

Emperor Shitian and Wanyan Aguda fled, several great masters were killed or captured, and more than 250,000 cavalry were killed and no less than 100,000 were captured.

Looking at this news, if it were not clear that it was false, Emperor Zhao Gou and his ministers would never dare to believe it.

This is completely different from their impression of the Jin army.

In their imagination, they could not defeat the Ming army, but at least they could fight them evenly. But they were defeated so easily!
This defeat seemed to be even easier than the previous defeat of the Song Dynasty in Bianliang.

"How powerful were you when you beat me, the Song Dynasty?"

This thought arose in the minds of Emperor Zhao Gou and his ministers at the same time, and they were filled with resentment and regret.

Then, they began to feel even greater fear and awe of the Ming Dynasty.

They naturally knew the result of this battle. It was not because the strength of the Jin Dynasty declined greatly in just a few months, but because the Ming army was too strong.

Terribly strong.

Even though most of the Ming's power was tied up in the country, just a part of it was powerful enough to easily defeat the Jin army.

Zhao Gou and others seemed to be somewhat enlightened.

No wonder my father (the retired emperor) and others were so afraid of the Ming Dynasty!

Suddenly, Zhao Gou's heart tightened and a hint of fear arose.

"What if the Ming army snatches my father and my brother from the Jin army?"

I panicked, but managed to calm myself down, gritted my teeth secretly.

We must not let my father and my brother come here.

"Cough." Zhao Gou coughed lightly, and felt extremely sober at this moment. He smiled and said, "The Ming Dynasty has achieved such a great victory, which is a blessing for the Han people all over the world. We should celebrate and avenge our Song Dynasty.

Immediately send the promised money and food to the Ming army.

In addition, I will write another letter and personally hand it over to Grand Commander Wang Shouren."

The ministers present did not notice anything unusual and spoke up to express their agreement.

The Ming army was so powerful that no matter what we thought in our hearts, we had to be happy and congratulate them on the surface.

After discussing the subsequent impact and response, the ministers withdrew.

Zhao Gou was alone and still quite uneasy. He shuddered at the thought of the terrible consequences that would follow if his father and brother came over.

After being extremely scared, anger and unwillingness surged up.

A group of traitors who are unwilling to die for the country.

Most of the people in the court are trash.

If I had a minister like Wang Shouren, I would surely defeat the Liao Kingdom and make great contributions to the Song Dynasty.

By then, what would happen even if my father and brother came back?
It’s hateful! Why don’t I have a minister like Wang Shouren?
Thinking of the intelligence about Wang Shouren's power, Zhao Gou felt envious and jealous.

Ming dynasty.

Zhu Houzhao received the news slower than the Song and Liao dynasties, after all, the distance was too far.

There are two messages in total.

The first one was a report from the Embroidered Uniform Guard, which showed that the Ming Dynasty had won a great victory.

The second piece of news came a day later, from Wang Shouren’s personal report.

When he received the first report, Zhu Houzhao laughed out loud.

When the second report was received, the whole city seemed to be filled with Zhu Houzhao's triumphant and arrogant laughter.

"The old king really didn't disappoint me. How dare a little Jin Man be so presumptuous?
My Ming Dynasty is invincible in the world!
Ha ha ha ha! "

Zhu Houzhao put his hands on his hips and laughed, and soon the whole city was filled with laughter.

The shouts that the Ming Dynasty was invincible reached the sky.

After showing off in front of Zheng Gong, Zhang Sanfeng and Wuji for a while, Zhu Houzhao said proudly: "Send the order to the old king, let him continue to make his own decisions, and give orders directly if necessary, and the whole court will cooperate with him.

Tell him to destroy as many of these Jin barbarians as possible for me."

"Yes." Wei Jinzhong, who was serving on the side, responded and hurried to prepare the imperial edict.

After issuing the decree, Zhu Houzhao was still excited and said with great interest: "Tell me, how did the old king use that trick of thousands of troops? It was so powerful that it could make Emperor Shitian and Wanyan Aguda flee in panic.

This old prince just knows how to hide things. Why don’t you show it to me first?

When I see him, I must learn this——"

He paused, then shook his head and said, "Forget it. Old Wang's practice is mysterious and unreliable. I'd better not learn it."

Zhang Sanfeng and the other two listened to Zhu Houzhao's chatter with a smile on their faces, and they were also shocked in their hearts.

No one expected that Wang Shouren could exert such power!

His military skills have probably reached a pinnacle, enough to rank among the top in history.

Moreover, they knew that although the seven armies were strong, they were not too strong because they had not yet experienced the trials of a major war.

If they were tempered by a great war, wouldn't they be able to retain combat power at the level of a god?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel even more frightened.

Also, if he led a large army to fight against Temujin who led the Thirteen Wings, I wonder...
On this side, Zhu Houzhao didn’t think about those things. He always knew that his old Wang was very powerful, only slightly worse than him.

Isn't it normal to defeat Jin Man?

As he spoke, he became a little anxious again.

"No, the old king won such a great victory, so of course I can't be weak.

I will continue to work hard on my cultivation, and you three old men must also work hard.

When I break through, I will take you to destroy Temujin."
