Chapter 479 Mythical Martial Realm, Beheading the Masses [Subscription Request]

Clang!

Not far away, there were soldiers from the Tuoba tribe, their swords dropped to the ground, their faces filled with sorrow.

The death of Tuoba Jiefen seemed to have taken away the courage of these troops to continue fighting.

Most of the tribal leaders who were fleeing also stood there in a daze.

Starting from Luoyang thirteen years ago, Zhang Liao was the first general to follow Cao Cao.

For thirteen years, he followed Cao Cao, fighting in many battles without ever being defeated.

He was the first to become the commander-in-chief of Cao's army and fought in the most important battles.

However, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were both better at leading troops and coordinating with the soldiers under their command, which enabled them to show their talents and become top-notch generals.

Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun, who joined Cao Wei after him, successively broke into the mythical realm, but Zhang Liao was always one step short of the finishing touch.

Until now!

Kill the leader of the Xianbei royal tribe and defeat Tuoba Jiefen, the chieftain who currently holds the most powerful force in the Xianbei.

The moment Tuoba Jiefen was killed, an invisible luck gathered and was about to merge with Zhang Liao.

A hint of purple flew out from the ink bag hanging on Cao Cao's waist.

That was the imperial seal, which had gone through 400 years of the Han Dynasty and was passed down to the Cao Wei Dynasty.

The jade seal, carrying the destiny of the Wei Dynasty, was as bright as the sun, hanging over Zhang Liao's head.

Cao Cao's imperial dragon soul also broke through the air and merged with the imperial seal, breathing out a long river of purple air, carrying endless national destiny, and blessing and integrating into Zhang Liao's body.

Driven by the national destiny, military destiny, and the luck of killing the head of a clan, Zhang Liao was able to break through the chasm that he had already touched but could not cross.

Rumble!
Zhang Liao's energy was surging and his strength was flowing like the Yangtze River, endlessly.

He killed the Xianbei commander with his own hands, and finally stepped his other foot into the threshold of mythology.

Considering Zhang Liao's personal qualifications, it would take some time for him to settle down and develop before he could have a chance of making a breakthrough.

After all, it is not so easy to cross the mythical realm.

But the fact that Cao Cao used the country's destiny to help him is a different matter.

[Zhang Liao, your general, receives the energy of heaven and earth, and brings the fortune of the country to him. His combat power rises: 94.9...95...95.1]

Although the growth is not that big judging from the entry, but ninety-five is the barrier of the God Generals, and the two before and after are completely different levels.

Cao Cao glanced at Dian Wei again.

This guy was the first to enter the mythical realm.

There are also Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong. The current combat power values ​​of the three have exceeded the range of 95 and are in another stage.

"Wenyuan, after this battle, you will follow me back to Yecheng and use the country's fortune to cultivate your military skills. After more than a hundred days, you will be able to stabilize your realm."

Zhang Liao felt the surging power in his body and agreed with great joy:
"I thank your majesty for his generous gift."

Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu again.

He was only half a step away from becoming a divine general.

The Xianbei expanded their territory over thousands of miles, and once they truly completed the annexation, this good fortune would definitely not only propel Zhang Liao forward, but would also help him enter the mythical martial arts realm.

At this moment, Zhang Liao swung his sword back, and the blade light suddenly increased.

Several terrified Xianbei soldiers nearby all died from neck wounds.

Xu Chu also rushed forward and chased the fleeing Xianbei people and other leaders of the Eight Great Kings.

"The leader of the Tuoba tribe, Tuoba Jiefen, was killed!"

A Wei soldier who knew the Xianbei language shouted loudly, shaking the battlefield: "The leader of the Xianbei king, Tuoba Jiefen, is dead!"

"Tuoba Jiefen is dead!"

"Most of the chieftains are dead, and Tuoba chieftain died in battle!"

"The Tuoba leader was killed! The high priest is also dead!"

The death of Tuoba Jiefen, the high priest, caused changes in the entire battlefield.

The leaders of the various Xianbei tribes fled while ordering their troops to blow war trumpets.

They tried to gather the troops of their own tribe and gather them around themselves.

If we continue fighting at this point, the only result will be the annihilation of the entire army.

The leaders of each tribe had the idea of ​​breaking out and escaping.

The shortcomings of the Xianbei regime, which was formed in the form of an alliance, were once again exposed. When it came to a life-and-death crisis, each of them acted on their own.

Thanks to Cao Cao's previous arrangements, the Wei army had completed the encirclement of the battlefield on all four sides.

In this situation, if the Xianbei army wanted to escape, they had to break through the siege of the Wei army.

On the battlefield, Ma Chao, Pang De, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were all busy killing the enemies.

The four people were arranged in a large diagonal formation, that is, two people in a group, staggered in an X-shaped scissors formation, galloping towards each other.

Then turn back and repeat the previous route, cutting back and forth to attack the enemy.

This requires very high military prowess of the general.

But all four of them are brave generals who can defeat thousands of enemies.

When they joined forces to infiltrate, the last fighting will of the Xianbei army was also shattered.

All the troops wanted to escape.

The Wei army used its generals to fight in turns, while large crossbowmen were stationed on the periphery. Soldiers went back and forth to transport arrows, killing a large number of Xianbei troops.

By the end of the afternoon, many chieftains of the eight major tribes were captured, and more and more Xianbei people knelt down and begged for surrender.

Some tribal leaders even ordered their soldiers to lay down their weapons.

But they immediately discovered that even if they laid down their weapons, they would still be hacked to death by the Wei army.

The Xianbei people panicked and picked up their weapons to fight again.

By the beginning of nightfall, the main battlefield was covered in blood, and some corpses had been turned into meat paste under the trampling of war horses.

The blood was so thick that the nearby Tula River turned dark red.

Tens of thousands of Xianbei soldiers were shot and killed just by trying to break out of the siege and escape.

The corpses were piled up like a high wall.

This was a veritable sea of ​​blood and corpses, with broken limbs and arms everywhere.

Even the veterans of Cao's army, who had experienced many battles, had pale faces, throbbing stomachs, and wanted to vomit. However, a small number of Xianbei people still broke through the siege, and Cao's army was chasing them all night.

The stars rise into the sky.

The torches shone with flames.

Some Xianbei soldiers escaped, but the leaders of each tribe, the second-level tribal priests, generals and other important figures were almost all captured.

These people were forced to kneel down on the high ground of the king's tent, facing the battlefield.

The purgatory-like scene before their eyes made some Xianbei leaders who prided themselves on their bravery and were used to life and death tremble in fear.

The fear seemed to be contagious. The leader of the Daxi tribe, one of the eight major tribes, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, saying:
"Respected Emperor Wei, we are willing to join the Great Wei, disband our armed forces, offer our grasslands, and raise horses for you for generations. Please... leave us a chance to continue our lineage!"

Several other chiefs also kowtowed, and some of them had tears and snot flowing out.

After they were captured, they were forced to kneel here and watch the battlefield.

When they were first captured, several of the chiefs had stubborn looks on their faces, waiting only to die, and not one of them begged for mercy.

But in just one afternoon, tens of thousands of Xianbei people were killed and slaughtered in front of them in waves.

The minds and courage of these chiefs were also destroyed with the death of the Xianbei people, and they began to surrender and beg for mercy.

When the Xianbei chieftains fled, Xu Chu captured two of them. Ma Chao, Pang De, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other generals also captured some.

Whoever catches it is responsible for killing it, and the resulting military luck belongs to him. It is fair and just.

Cao Cao waved his hand to give the order, and the swords chopped down, heads flew off, and hundreds of tribal chiefs, priests, and generals fell to the ground one by one.

Cao Cao looked into the distance, gazing at the vast grassland.

After this battle, the main resistance force of the Xianbei will no longer exist.

However, the scattered tribal soldiers did not gather at the royal tent, and there were still many Xianbei people scattered throughout the grassland.

There were even quite a few Xianbei tribes that deliberately arranged to migrate northward toward Lake Baikal before Cao's army arrived.

The grassland is vast, and it is inevitable that some fish will slip through the net.

As for how to deal with these people later, Cao Cao has thought of a very ingenious method.

At that moment, Cao's cavalry went out in all directions to pursue the defeated army.

Guo Jia, Xun You and Pang Tong were not with Cao Cao, so they went to the periphery in advance, where there was a layer of encirclement set up by the Wei army.

The subsequent pursuit and interception battles will be more intense.

That night.

Accompanied by Jia Xu, Zhuge Liang, and the remaining generals Dian Wei and Zhang Liao who did not go out to pursue the enemy, Cao Cao entered the high ground where the Xianbei king's tent was located.

Other generals, including Xu Chu, also wanted to gain military luck and impact the mythical realm, so they went to various places and launched pursuit of the enemy.

The Xianbei king's tent was in a mess, with fires still burning in some places.

When Cao Cao entered the camp, he heard a woman sobbing.

She was Tuoba Jiefen's favorite concubine and the giant salamander of the Wei Dynasty.

She had an arrow wound on her shoulder, was wrapped in bandages, had a grim look on her face, and was holding the body of a woman in her arms.

That was another spy of the Wei Dynasty lurking in the Xianbei.

When Wei Yan and Zhang He attacked, they were responsible for setting the fire, but were discovered by the Xianbei people and another woman was killed on the spot.

The giant salamander hid in the dark and waited until the Wei army came in before it found the bodies of its companions.

Both women were Han people who were abducted by the Xianbei.

Because of its beautiful appearance, the giant salamander was valued by Tuoba Jiefen and had the opportunity to come into contact with the Xianbei central government.

The other person was code-named Catfish. Although he was also taken into the private account of a royal leader, his status was far lower than that of the giant salamander, and he could not get any important information.

Both women have relatives still in Han territory.

Among them, the giant salamander was selected by the Qingbi Li in his early years and had known Bian Mei since he was young.

She was accidentally abducted to Xianbei and only regained contact a few years ago. She then became a spy for Cao Wei, performing and selling her body in Xianbei.

She has made great contributions to China.

When the giant salamander saw Cao Cao, he became even more grief-stricken. He fell to his knees on the ground and cried loudly.

A quarter of an hour later, Cao Cao came to a large tent and sat down to discuss the follow-up matters with Jia Xu and Zhuge Liang:

"First, announce to the world that our army has defeated the main force of the Xianbei, and our Wei will annex the vast grassland.

Then tell all the departments in the court to make all necessary preparations."

Someone will go down to pass on Cao Cao's orders.

"I will stay here for a while. In the future, this grassland will need someone who can take charge of it for a long time, to cooperate with my other arrangements and help this place become truly stable."

"Kong Ming, I want you to stay first, and I will send someone to replace you after a while, how about that?"

Zhuge Liang gladly accepted the order: "I thank Your Majesty for your respect and cultivation."

There are thousands of miles of grassland and fertile land. Cao Cao can rest assured to let him manage the affairs here. If he can make some achievements, he will return to the court the next day and have the hope of becoming the executive vice premier.

From that day on, Cao Cao stayed in the Xianbei king's tent camp, waiting for the news of the Wei army's clearing of various parts of the grassland to be reported.

A few days later, someone came to see Cao Cao first.

This person is very important to Cao Cao's subsequent arrangements.

Ke Bineng.

The last time he went to Yecheng to recognize his adoptive father, Cao Cao sent a man named Xu Zhe to follow him and run around with him.

The two men entered the tent together with Xu Chu, who had just returned from chasing the enemy.

Kebineng did not participate in the previous war between the two tribes.

He traveled around the grassland, connecting with tribal forces outside the Xianbei royal family, trying to integrate all parties and win the support of Cao Cao.

He wanted to take advantage of the collapse of the existing Xianbei regime and rebuild it to get a chance to become the new ruler of the grassland.

He rushed over at this time, obviously because his plan had made progress, and he came to report to Cao Cao.

Ke Bi was able to enter the big tent, and Xu Zhe, whom Cao Cao had arranged to be beside him, followed behind him.

After Xu Zhe came in, he nodded to Cao Cao imperceptibly, conveying a certain message.
