Fire of War Brings Peace/

Chapter 137: Conquering Dongxia

Grain rain season rain produces a hundred grains and spring rain is a good season for grain growth.

Absolute Beginning and Dongxia had declared war for ten days, but no major conflict had broken out. Absolute Beginning Marshal Lin Chuhe was currently stationed in Xuanjian City, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers were stationed in various cities along the southern border of Absolute Beginning..

On the Taichu side, not only did they have 600,000 soldiers, but the Military Aircraft Temple had also mobilized 200,000 city guards from all over Yingzhou to join Lin Chuhe's command. In addition, 100,000 Qinghe soldiers and experts from the Qing Yan Hall had also arrived at the Hanging Sword City. Although it was a bit exaggerated, it was not much different..

According to reports from spies, East Xia also stationed hundreds of thousands of troops at the border. The exact number was unknown, but the leader of East Xia's army was actually the Crown Prince Bai Lingshuang..

City Lord's Mansion of Hanging Sword City.

At this moment, the City Lord Mansion was the temporary residence of Absolute Beginning Marshal Lin Chuhe. In the main hall of the City Lord Mansion, there was a huge sand table. The mountains, rivers, and city divisions of East Xia were all detailed on it. Marshal Lin Chuhe was discussing with the generals about attacking East Xia before he stood on the sand table..

Lin Chuhe was about fifty years old, and his appearance was not rough. At this time, he was not wearing armor, but a green shirt, which made him look a little weak..

Lin Chuhe was a legend of the Taichu army. He was not a general but a civil servant who passed the imperial examinations. His results in the imperial examinations were not outstanding, and the imperial court did not pay much attention to him. He was only sent to Fengwu County as a county magistrate..

At that time, Jin 'an Dynasty was strong and had the upper hand in the dispute with Taichu Dynasty. Li Jianshen, the former emperor of Taichu Dynasty, was worried that Jin' an Dynasty would take advantage of the situation to attack Taichu Dynasty..

The situation could not be changed even after several changes of generals on the Western Front. When Li Jianshen was in a state of anxiety, a memorial attracted his attention. This memorial was written by a county official of Fengwu County. It was not a report to the county government affairs, but the county official's opinions on training, raising troops and using troops..

The more Li Jianshen looked at him, the more he felt that this person had unique insights and was a rare genius in commanding troops. He immediately summoned this person to the capital to meet the saint. This person was Lin Chuhe..

After Lin Chuhe entered the capital to meet the saint, Li Jianshen recognized his way of commanding troops and strategy more, but he was also worried that he was just talking on paper, so he only sent him to Donglin Pass as a general..

In this way, a generation of Confucian general Lin Chuhe from a civil minister turned into a general.

The commander of Donglin Pass did not pay much attention to this civilian general. However, after several battles, he saw Lin Chuhe's ability to lead troops. Lin Chuhe's ability was recognized by the commander. With Lin Chuhe's strategy, Donglin Pass could begin to compete with Jin 'an..

Perhaps seeing the strength of the Taichu army, Jin 'an Dynasty did not attack Yingzhou, but attacked Yingzhou in the northeast direction, and gradually broke through the Great Liao Dynasty occupying Yingzhou..

Seeing this situation, Li Jianshen promoted Lin Chuhe to the general of Donglin Pass. From then on, Lin Chuhe fought south and north and made great achievements. In his thirties, he became the Marshal of Taichu..

Lin Chuhe pointed at the sand table with a serious expression and told the generals beside him about the matter. Besides the Taichu generals, the chief of the Clear Evolution Hall, Long Yan Division, the commander of the 100,000 Clear Peace Army, Qian Lu Saburo, and the commander of the Star Mark Dragon Armor Battalion, Tang Jinge, were also beside him..

Late at night, drizzling rain, East Xia Wuwei pass wall, East Xia Jiashi is still energetic, defense Taichu army raid.

Wuwei Pass is the first majestic pass on the border of East Xia. It is built near mountains and rivers. The city wall is towering. The moat in front of the pass is very wide. It is extremely easy to defend and difficult to attack after the suspension bridge is closed..

The city patrolmen did not notice that several figures had already arrived at the moat under the cover of night..

" Shi Shen: Ice Child!" As someone chanted softly, a child emitting a cold aura was thrown into the moat. The moat formed an ice path visible to the naked eye, and everyone followed the ice path to the bottom of the city wall..

" Shikigami: Lord of the River!"" Shikigami: Cimu!"" Shikigami: Drunkard!"" Shikigami: Jiuluzhi!" Several voices rang out, and several huge spirits suddenly appeared under the city wall. One of them was covered with scales and surrounded by water waves. It opened its mouth and sucked all the water in the moat into its stomach in a very short time, then smashed huge water balls onto the city wall..

The other three Shikigami had fought against Galaxy Sect. The one-armed Shikigami was Cimu of Longyan Si, the Shikigami with the huge wine gourd was Drunkard of Tongyue Qingye, and the Nine-headed Snake Monster was Jiuluzhi of Gu Yaoji..

After the appearance of the four gods, they began to attack one part of the city wall.

" Enemy attack!"" Enemy attack!" Dongxia had naturally discovered these powerful shikigami. Arrows, ballistae, and other city defense equipment kept attacking the shikigami, but they had little effect. One attack from those shikigami could kill a large number of city defense armorers..

Under the indiscriminate bombardment of four grandmaster-class warriors, no matter how sturdy the city wall was, it would not last long. Soon, a 20-foot-wide gap was blasted open..

While the Eastern Xia defenders were in a tight spot, a large group of cavalrymen appeared from the direction of Absolute Beginning and rushed towards Wuwei Pass. The one charging at the forefront was the Starstreak Dragon Armor Battalion led by Tang Jinge..

After discovering the enemy, the Eastern Xia defenders on the city wall immediately fired arrows and crossbows at the Absolute Beginning Army, but they didn't seem to have much effect. Soon, the Absolute Beginning Army arrived at the moat. Tang Jinge's white tiger jumped up and directly crossed the dried moat and arrived at the city wall of Wuwei Pass..

Jianghuai Shi and Yue Kaishan followed closely behind. The two giant wolves also crossed the moat. It would not be easy for the remaining cavalry to cross the moat..

Tang Jinge flew up and slashed at the chain of the suspension bridge. Jianghuai Shi and Yue Kaishan were guarding Tang Jinge to block the arrows and falling rocks..

The two thick chains were soon cut off by Tang Jinge, and the suspension bridge fell down. Under Tang Jinge's lead, the Absolute Beginning cavalrymen bypassed the city gate and charged towards the huge gap opened by Shi Shen..

Cavalry was not very useful in siege warfare, but under Lin Chuhe's command, Taichu Army and Qinghe Shishen cooperated well, which also made Dragon Armor Battalion play an important role in siege warfare..

Tang Jinge, who rushed into Wuwei Pass, led the Dragon Armor Battalion and Taichu Cavalry to fight fiercely with the defenders of Wuwei Pass. Yu She, the general of Wuwei Pass, stopped the defenders from resisting desperately, but the broken city was not so easy to defend. Soon, the city gate fell..

The Taichu cavalry opened the city gate. At this time, the relatively slow infantry soldiers had also arrived and filed into Wuwei Pass..

:.

Yu She saw that the general situation had gone and began to command the garrison to evacuate. How could Tang Jinge give him a chance to lead the crowd to charge the Wuwei garrison who was behind the rear? Soon, he broke through the defense line of the garrison and chased the Wuwei army who withdrew..

The battle at Wuwei Pass lasted only four hours before the dust settled. The Taichu Army completely occupied Wuwei Pass. More than 10,000 defenders of Wuwei Pass were killed and 30,000 people including Yu She were captured. Only 30,000 people escaped Wuwei Pass and fled to Xiaguan City, where the main force of East Xia was stationed..

There were only 3,000 casualties on the Tai Chu side. It was a great victory..

Lin Chuhe did not stop fighting. After leaving 100,000 soldiers at Wuwei Pass, the Taichu army divided into two groups and advanced towards the other two passes in Dongxia..

The news that Wuwei Pass had fallen soon reached the ears of Bai Lingshuang, the commander of East Xia. Bai Lingshuang immediately commanded 200,000 East Xia troops to Yinma Pass, which was located on the west side of Wuwei Pass..

The 100,000 troops of the Qing Dynasty arrived at the north of Yinma Pass and formed an array several miles away from Yinma Pass to confront the defenders inside the Pass..

At dawn, Taichu Army, which launched a surprise attack from Wuwei Pass to Yinma Pass, met the main force of Dongxia unexpectedly more than ten miles away from Yinma Pass..

The commander of this group of Taichu was Ni Feihong, the former general of Taichu. He was the second most important person in this army of Taichu. Besides the 200,000 regular soldiers of Taichu, he also had the Star Mark Dragon Armor Battalion led by Tang Jinge and a large number of God Tenders from Qing Yan Hall under him..

The main force of Eastern Xia led by Bai Lingshuang was also not to be underestimated. Eastern Xia Red Flame Army and Beast King Camp were among them. There were also several grandmasters in charge of the experts..

Enemies met, jealous, did not say anything, both sides launched an offensive towards each other.

Shi Shen Jiu Lu Zhi and River Master took the lead. Many Qing He Shi Shen blocked in front of Dongxia Army. Qing He people attacked Dongxia very hard and rushed to the forefront of the battle formation..

Tang Jinge led 10,000 cavalrymen, including the Dragon Armor Battalion, to flank the right flank and cut into the Dongxia Army like a sharp sword. The pressure on Dongxia's right flank increased greatly. Bai Lingshuang immediately transferred 10,000 Red Flame Army to the right flank to fight the Absolute Beginning Cavalrymen..

The Red Flame Army stood out on the battlefield. Their silver armor was engraved with large red flame patterns. The lining and cape were red. From a distance, they looked like a raging sea of fire spreading over..

Among the Red Flame Army, there was one person who was the most special. He looked to be in his forties. He was not wearing armor, but his upper body was bare, revealing his rock-solid muscles. There were large fire tattoos on his body, and he held two black hammers. His entire person exuded a dangerous aura..

If Gu Xifeng saw this man here, he would definitely be shocked and recall many memories that made his heart palpitate. This man was one of the grandmasters who chased after him and his brother back then, Qin Ming, the commander of the Eastern Xia Red Flame Army! Although the Red Flame Army was an infantry, Qin Ming had a mount. It was a huge red-haired master. His aura was no weaker than Tang Jinge's mount..

Qin Ming took the lead and charged into the formation of the Absolute Beginning Cavalry. As he swung his two giant black hammers, the Absolute Beginning Cavalry were chopped down like vegetables. Very few ordinary cavaliers could block Qin Ming's attack..

Seeing this situation, a cavalry of Dragon Armor Camp charged towards Qin Ming with a saber in hand. Tang Jinge shouted loudly at him,"Ma Sheng, don't go. That's a Grandmaster expert.".

Then Tang Jinge controlled the white tiger under his crotch and rushed to Qin Ming anxiously..

The cavalryman named Ma Sheng had the strength of the middle stage of the Advanced Realm. He took advantage of Qin Ming's unpreparedness to slash at Qin Ming's back. Qin Ming felt something and his protective aura enveloped him. Ma Sheng's saber could not move the aura at all when it struck Qin Ming..

Ma Sheng was shocked and wanted to retreat, but Qin Ming would not give him a chance. He swung his giant hammer backward and directly hit Ma Sheng's face. Ma Sheng leaned back and hurriedly raised his saber to block it. He felt a terrifying force coming over. His arm lost consciousness and his saber flew out instantly..

Qin Ming was surprised that he didn't succeed in his first attack. He turned around and looked at the strange armored Absolute Beginning cavalryman with interest. Qin Ming then swung his hammers at Ma Sheng and his mount..

Ma Sheng wanted to retreat, but his speed was far slower than Qin Ming's. He could not escape at all. He only saw the black hammer getting closer and closer to him. Even the dragon armor could not save his life after being hit by this terrifying blunt weapon..

" Am I going to die?" Ma Sheng sighed in his heart. He didn't expect to die on the first day of attacking Dongxia..

The huge impact he imagined did not arrive. Ma Sheng only felt a pulling force behind him. After that, he was sent flying backwards and fell heavily to the ground..

When he got up from the ground, he saw Tang Jinge and Qin Ming fighting together, and his warhorse had fallen to the ground without any life. Obviously, he was saved by the commander, but his warhorse did not survive..

There was no time for sadness and regret. All around him were Red Flame Army soldiers who were eyeing him. Ma Sheng killed one of the Red Flame Army soldiers bare-chested and took away his saber. He fought with the enemy again. The soldiers of the Dragon Armor Battalion also saw his situation. Two cavalry soldiers came to his side and fought side by side with him..

Looking at Tang Jinge's side, Tang Jinge had already touched the threshold of the Grandmaster Realm. He was about to break through, but he had not broken through even when he was close. Even Tang Jinge was a little powerless against the veteran Grandmaster Realm experts. Even if he tried his best, he would still be in danger..

Qin Ming didn't take Tang Jinge seriously at first, but he was shocked that he couldn't take down this young man. After Qin Ming pushed Tang Jinge back, he said loudly," I'm Qin Ming of the Red Flame Army of East Xia. There's actually such a young expert in the Absolute Beginning Army. May I ask your name?" Tang Jinge took a breath happily and replied," Tang Jinge of the Star Mark Dragon Armor Battalion.".

Qin Ming's interest grew stronger and he laughed,"So it's Commander Tang of the Dragon Armor Battalion of the Galaxy Sect. It's a pleasure to meet you. Let me experience Commander Tang's great moves again.".

Qin Ming's expression gradually became serious. His eyes flashed with a red light, and the flame tattoos on his body lit up. The two black hammers were also wrapped in a ball of red energy..

Tang Jinge's expression was grave. He knew Qin Ming had to do his best. He slowly closed his eyes..

When Qin Ming charged over, Tang Jinge opened his eyes again. His eyes were full of fighting spirit. An ancient warrior phantom appeared on his body. The God of War descended! Even with the blessing of the God of War, Tang Jinge was still not Qin Ming's match. Every time his spear collided with the black hammer, it was very difficult..

Just as Tang Jinge was about to lose, a war hammer larger than Qin Ming's hammer smashed towards Qin Ming. Qin Ming blocked it calmly, and another meteor hammer smashed towards Qin Ming's Protective Gang Qi forcefully. A tiny crack actually appeared on the powerful Protective Gang Qi..

Qin Ming controlled the Red Lion to retreat rapidly. Two cavalry and Tang Jinge formed a siege on Qin Ming. It was the two deputy commanders of the Star Mark Dragon Armor Battalion, Jianghuai Shi and Yue Kaishan!
