Chapter 96: Second Northern Expedition, Black Wind Mountains

Chapter 96 The Second Northern Expedition, Black Wind Mountains

Westbound.

Li family.

The Li family is the most powerful family in the Western Territory today, and they also occupy the most prosperous place.

The spiritual energy is strong, and cities rise from the ground like a miniature imperial city, built according to the scale of the time when the Li family was emperor.

Speaking of which, the former capital of the Li family is now Qinzhou of Daxia.

However, Daxia's Northern Expedition was too drastic to be hidden from them.

"They actually launched a Northern Expedition. How sudden!"

Li Ye fell into deep thought: "But those barbarians are experienced and run fast, so it is difficult for Daxia to annihilate them. It will waste national strength. This Northern Expedition is doomed to be useless. Throughout the dynasties, when the Central Plains Dynasty was strong, the barbarians retreated, and when the Central Plains Dynasty was weak, the barbarians advanced. It has always been difficult to annihilate them."

"The young emperor became the most powerful at such a young age, and he also quelled the civil strife. It was also the time when he was most confident, so it was not surprising that he launched the Northern Expedition."

Every move of Daxia is on their nerves.

Everyone knows that the four realms are a whole and this balance cannot be disturbed.

"We should give them some trouble!"

Li Ye said: "Let the families take action. Even if they don't attack, they can't do without direct pressure. A large number of strong people are concentrated in the north. The power of the western border can make Daxia have no time to march north."

He didn't care about the life or death of the Hu people, but he cared about their interests.

Now, the Western Territory has formed an alliance of aristocratic families, with the Li family as the leader.

The capital of Daxia.

"The First Northern Expedition has begun."

Chu Feng said.

"Well, the first northern expedition has begun, and our Great Xia army has entered the north. However, as we expected, the various Hu people have already fled, and the results were minimal. We only hit a few slow runners."

Duan Qianqiu said beside.

"If the Hu tribes were so easy to destroy, they would have perished during the reign of Emperor Taizu, and I would not have gone to such great lengths to launch multiple northern expeditions to ensure victory. I can just strictly follow this plan."

Chu Feng was not disappointed, but said: "The people in the Western Territory, the East Sea, and the South Ridge have also taken action."

"We're used to it. Every time we go on a campaign, there's always trouble." Duan Qianqiu said with a smile.

"Operate all the barbarians and the Western Border aristocratic families, and I can mobilize all my forces to suppress the East Sea!"

"Among the four realms, the East Sea is the strongest and most difficult opponent!"

Chu Feng did not underestimate the strength of the various sects in the East China Sea.

It is difficult to deal with either of the two sects with strong Samsara Realm foundation.

After all, when the Samsara Realm's foundation was destroyed, Taizu led the expedition personally, and lost a duke.

"Take it step by step. Maybe I am too arrogant in the eyes of those people, but that's okay."

Chu Feng said.

And at this moment.

The Northern Expedition Army advanced deep into the north.

All the birds and animals along the way scattered.

"This is where the current Yuandu is located!"

They crossed the vast area and arrived at the capital of Beiyuan.

"He ran pretty fast."

Chang Yu said coldly: "These barbarians have no other ability but to run fast. The two powerful tribes in the north, Beiyuan and Di, have disappeared without a trace. The deep part of the north is similar to the land in the west. The army is in trouble and danger."

"This first northern expedition has also lasted for several months, and some conflicts have broken out in the other three realms."

Yue Fei said.

"Well, the first Northern Expedition ended, creating a situation where our Great Xia returned empty-handed."

Chang Yu nodded and said, "I have contacted General Li Mu. He is ready and has led his light cavalry to lie in ambush in secret."

"To destroy all the Hu tribes, we must destroy the Di tribe and Beiyuan at the same time. Neither can be ignored. This time, our army plans to destroy the Di tribe first during the third northern expedition, and then concentrate our forces to defeat Beiyuan!"

Yue Fei said.

They knew that Beiyuan was the most difficult to deal with.

The current Yuandu is just their base for survival in the northern grasslands. The real core area is hidden deep in the north.

"Deep in the north, the Black Wind Mountains are a refuge for the Hu people to avoid the attacks of the imperial dynasty."

Chang Yu said.

In fact, he knew clearly where the large armies of the Hu people fled to every time.

It is the Black Wind Mountains.

The Black Wind Mountains are located deep in the north. Black storms linger all year round, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is extremely chaotic.

The Black Wind Mountains are winding and twisting, vast and boundless, and span a huge area.

And the environment is extremely complex.

In some ways, it is similar to Snow Dragon Mountain in the west.

But the Black Wind Mountains are actually not suitable for survival. It is a truly bitter and cold place. It is just a refuge for the Hu people to escape the Central Plains Dynasty for tens of thousands of years.

The Hu people understood the complex terrain of the Black Wind Mountains.

Generally speaking, when the army of the Central Plains dynasty enters, they will be easily tricked due to their lack of understanding of the environment.

It is said that the holy land of Beiyuan is in the Black Wind Mountains.

And the Hu people in the north left.

Daxia's Northern Expedition ended in failure.

The army returned to Ningzhou City.

Wait until the Daxia Legion leaves.

Only then did the Hu tribes return.

A place in the north. "What are the conditions of the tribes?"

A strangely dressed man with a totemic tattoo on his face, who was sitting on an animal skin chair, asked.

He is the current King Di.

The strength reaches the eighth level of Tongtian.

"My royal family is doing well, and the five powerful clans have gradually returned. Fortunately, we moved quickly, otherwise we would be in trouble."

The strong man of the Di tribe said.

King Di nodded: "With our current strength, we are not yet able to fight Daxia head-on. Daxia's northern expedition was unsuccessful and it also consumed their national strength. It is not a bad thing, but at the same time, we cannot let our guard down. The north is vast and we can deal with them."

But what they didn't expect was that just a few months after they returned.

Daxia’s second northern expedition was launched immediately.

This time, Daxia's Northern Expedition was extremely swift, and it successively destroyed many Hu tribes, scaring the Hu people like a frightened bird, and they quickly ran back to the Black Wind Mountains again.

Even the Beiyuan and Di tribes ran faster than each other.

However, this time the Hu people suffered a certain blow.

But the Hu people also reacted quickly.

"Although the second Northern Expedition achieved some success, the main force was not hit. They ran back to the Black Wind Mountains again!"

This time, the Daxia Legion ran deep into the north in one breath.

Yue Fei looked out and saw that it was dark in the distance, with a black storm swirling and the shadow of the Black Wind Mountains vaguely visible.

He also wanted to attack the Black Wind Mountains in one breath, but the mountains restricted the development of the Great Xia Army. Once they went deep into them, unpredictable things would happen.

This kind of thing has not happened before.

Throughout the long history, there was an incident in which the Central Plains dynasty invaded the Black Wind Mountains but was completely annihilated.

"To destroy the Hu tribe, we must enter the Black Wind Mountains. However, now is not the best time to enter. We need to weaken their strength. This Northern Expedition has a great impact. The three realms have launched stronger harassment attacks on our Great Xia border defenses."

Wang Jian said: "We will continue to confuse them with the second northern expedition. Our army will first camp outside the Black Wind Mountains and pretend to be determined to destroy all the Hu people, so as to lure the enemies in the three realms to launch a strong attack."

"good."

The commanders were discussing the matter.

Stationed in the Black Wind Mountains, forming a blockade.

Because the environment of the Black Wind Mountains is too harsh, even though the Hu people are familiar with the terrain, they cannot withstand the black storms that are always there.

Meng Tian and Wang Ben personally led the cavalry as the vanguard into the Black Wind Mountains and drew a detailed map.

Of course, the locations of the Hu people in the Black Wind Mountains were also constantly changing.

Although the various Hu people hated Daxia, their fear of Daxia prevented them from leaving the Black Wind Mountains.

"Daxia's second northern expedition has advanced to the Black Wind Mountains. The various Hu people have fled in twice in a row. Daxia's three generals, Wang Jian, Chang Yu, and Yue Fei, who are all at the ninth level of the heavenly realm, as well as many powerful men such as Meng Tian and Wang Ben are all in the north. This is a tactic of blockade and extermination against the various Hu people!"

On Shenxiao Island.

As an ancient sect that has given birth to several reincarnation realm masters and has been passed down for tens of thousands of years.

Extremely extraordinary.

This place is very prosperous, with cities standing one after another and countless fairy mountains and caves.

Back in the day when the Shenxiao Sect was in the reincarnation realm, they moved mountains and filled the sea, and personally moved many spiritual veins to the Shenxiao Island, which also made the area of ​​the Shenxiao Island extremely large, as large as several states of Daxia.

The Shenxiao Sect was not afraid of Daxia's attack at all.

They did not directly attack Daxia's forces.

But given the sect’s background, even if someone extremely powerful dares to step in, he will die.

"Master, what should we do? According to the border defenses of Daxia, we need to block the East Sea, West Border, and South Ridge, and then use our strength to destroy the Hu people. The Hu people are nothing, but Beiyuan is also powerful and can tie down a large number of Daxia's troops."

All the elders of the Shenxiao Sect who were at the Tongtian realm gathered here.

The failure in the last Samsara Secret Realm made them hate Daxia even more deeply.

The head of Shenxiao Sect had a gloomy expression.

He did not look down on the young emperor. He was able to quell the rebellion and become powerful, and his skills were no worse than those of the Great Xia Emperor Taizu.

"Since we know Daxia's goal, how can we let them achieve it? Although we don't have much contact with the Hu people, we still understand the principle of rising together and falling together."

Taoist Shenxiao already had an idea: "Contact the various sects, form a sect army, and storm the East China Sea defense line. Of course, don't attack the coastal prefectures of Daxia first, attack their islands in the sea, and force them to stop mobilizing troops in the north!"

In fact, given the strength of the various sects, they are not afraid of Daxia sending troops at sea.

Taoist Shenxiao also felt that the arrogance of Da Xia must be suppressed.

He wanted to let the little emperor know that even though the sects were weak, he could not provoke them at will.

He has been trapped at the peak of the ninth level for so many years.

His comprehension of the mysteries of reincarnation has also reached a peak.

All that was missing was the final breakthrough.

If he could break through to the highest level and become the strongest man in the world, leading all the sects and heroes in the world, it would not be impossible for him to destroy Da Xia.

As long as Da Xia is destroyed, his Shenxiao Sect can support an obedient family to establish an empire, serve as a puppet of the Shenxiao Sect, and regard his Shenxiao Sect as the state religion.

With the sect's good fortune and the foundation of the Shenxiao Sect, it might even be possible to break through to the reincarnation realm.

After all, the Taoist Shenxiao has a deep foundation. In the heyday of Shenxiao Sect, it was certain that he would become the most powerful one.

Once he reaches the realm of reincarnation, he will have boundless power and can suppress the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

In his mind, he believed that in this stalemate, it all depended on who could reach the top first and break the deadlock.

"Go do it."

Taoist Shenxiao ordered.

Among all the sects, his Shenxiao Sect has absolute authority.

He felt that he could not continue to be in a stalemate with Da Xia, because judging from Da Xia's recent actions, the threat posed was too great.
