My Heaven-Defying Spirit

Chapter 11 Dynasty Change

With the death of Xuan Laotai and Li Tang, the war between the Da'an Dynasty and the Western Barbarians has not yet ended. At this time, the Western Barbarians' army is approaching the border to formally attack Da'an. At this time, bad news came from the front line. Only 20,000 troops were left of the 100,000 troops stationed at the border of Da'an. As for the Western Barbarians, 15 troops were lost.

As for the next move of Xiyi, it had no effect. Even if they lost 150,000 troops, they still had at least 800,000 soldiers gathering at the border, and every day they would continuously transport ordinary people from the rear to supplement the army. Although these ordinary people were of no use in actual combat, they could at least be used as cannon fodder.

At this moment, the sound of horns from the Western Yi army came from the battlefield where the two armies were fighting in the distance.

"Brothers, charge forward, grab the land and the money! The commander will reward you all." Someone said this, and the soldiers from the Western Yi were also frantically attacking the Da'an border.

Facing the nearly 200,000-strong army of the Western Barbarians, the soldiers and generals of Da'an felt a chill in their hearts. Although the Western Barbarians had only sent out 200,000 soldiers this time, they only had two men left. According to the number of heads, one person from Da'an had to face the siege of ten people from the Western Barbarians. No matter how good their martial arts were, they could not defeat four hands with two fists. As for the reinforcements that the emperor had promised to send, they had not been seen for a long time. At this time, their morale had already fallen to the bottom, and they did not have much fighting power.

"Grandmaster! Let's go quickly. I will take the rest of my brothers to hold back these Western barbarians." At this time, Ji Duhou held a sharp sword in his hand and swung it vigorously to cut the Western barbarian soldiers rushing in from all directions.

Although Master Ming had one hand broken, he still held the "sword" that killed the old man in his hand, and kept slashing at the Western Yi army that was rushing in from all sides. He was also depressed at this time. Although he knew that His Majesty the Emperor had long wanted to weaken his strength and deliberately delayed the arrival of reinforcements, at this moment, more than half of the people in his "Divine Soldiers Camp" had been killed or wounded. The original elite troops of tens of thousands now had less than a few thousand people left. According to this, His Majesty the Emperor should be satisfied, and it was time to send reinforcements to rescue.

But now not only are there only a few tens of thousands of people left, there is no sign of reinforcements coming from the Imperial City. At this moment, Grand Tutor Ming also felt something was wrong. Could it be that something unexpected happened in the Da'an Imperial City?

At this time, in the Da'an Palace, the Da'an Emperor, who was sitting in the Renhuang Hall, was pacing back and forth in the hall with an anxious look on his face, while Li Hongan was kneeling beside him without even raising his head.

"Your Majesty, all the guards in the palace are gone!"

"Your Majesty, our army outside the city suddenly disappeared, and we can't get in touch with them no matter how hard we try."

At this time, in the Da'an Imperial City, eunuchs and some of the emperor's advisers kept speaking up. They were also curious about what was going on.

At this time, Emperor Da'an had no idea what was going on, because he had been stunned by the aftermath of the attack from Old Lady Xuan just now, and Li Hongan was also stunned. Although he didn't know what had happened, given the current situation, the guards in the city were gone, the imperial guards were gone, and even the army outside the city had disappeared. Moreover, their State Master Xuan was also nowhere to be seen. Could it be that State Master Xuan had swept away all the troops in the Da'an Imperial City? Li Hongan thought this was impossible, and Emperor Da'an also thought this was impossible. Even if their State Master Xuan had great abilities, it was impossible for him to make nearly 600,000 people disappear in an instant.

But someone had to stand up and give an explanation. At this moment, a man in black quietly appeared beside Emperor Da'an and said something to the ear of the anxious Emperor Da'an.

"What!" Hearing what the man in black said, Emperor Daan looked at him with an unbelievable look.

However, there were many officials in the hall at that time. Although they had little fighting power, they still had some brains. They knew that what the black-clothed man reported was not a good thing.

"Our western border has fallen!"

When Emperor Da'an said this, the ministers present were all shocked, but then they were both surprised and reasonable. Although they were all dealing with some government affairs in the court and had never fought on the battlefield, they all knew that there were only 100,000 people on the western border, while the Western Barbarians had an army of one million. The huge disparity in numbers made the defeat a fact.

And now the army that was originally going to be sent to the western border suddenly disappeared, and some ministers who believed in gods immediately shouted, "Is it God who wants to destroy Da'an?"

With the defeat on the western battlefield, the news gradually spread among the people in Da'an. Many people felt the crisis and hurriedly packed their bags to leave Da'an and head to the Northern Territory. The Northern Territory is located near the Kunlun Snow Mountain. Although the environment there is relatively harsh, it is the only place they can find a place to survive at the moment. There is nothing valuable in the north that can attract the southern barbarians of the Western Yi. From a strategic perspective, even if their army goes to the Northern Territory to hunt down these ordinary people of Da'an, it will be a big loss, and there will be no results at all.

According to the current progress of the Western Yi army, their army will reach the capital of Da'an in a few days. Although they have to pass through many cities on the way from the western border to Da'an, the population of these cities is no more than 10,000 people. They can just crush them directly, and it will only take a little time to deal with those who resist stubbornly. Now the six princes and generals of the Western Yi only want one thing, that is to capture the Emperor of Da'an alive and then execute him publicly. Then they will occupy the entire territory of the Da'an Dynasty, and they will no longer have to survive in the desert in the west.

At this time, a few hundred miles away from the capital of Da'an, a troop of about 8,000 people was advancing rapidly on the road. These people still had scars of varying sizes on their bodies. It seemed that they had just come down from the battlefield. These people were the remaining troops under Master Ming. According to the number of people, there were still 1,500 people left in Master Ming's "Divine Soldiers Camp", about 3,000 ordinary soldiers, 500 people under Ji Duhou, and the troops of Ming Guangjun and others. The combat effectiveness of these people was uneven, but at this moment they all had a common goal, which was to return to Beijing as soon as possible to reunite with the emperor, and then retreat to the eastern border.

Because at this moment there is another general of Da'an on the eastern border. That general also has hundreds of thousands of people under him, but these people have been guarding the eastern border for a long time, because there is a force there that makes Da'an even more afraid, that is one of the four great dynasties.

"Huanggu Kingdom" is a super dynasty located in the east of Da'an. Its comprehensive strength may be even stronger than Da'an. However, as long as the general in the east does not leave the border, Huanggu Kingdom will not dare to invade Da'an. This is the meritorious service of the general in the east decades ago. Therefore, both the current Master Ming and the Emperor of Da'an are pinning their hopes on the general in the east.
