Chapter 387: The Battle of Guide Mansion
With absolutely overwhelming strength, it is not a problem to take down such a small county. The problem is how to integrate into the world after taking it down.
This world is very big. The Ming Dynasty where Zhong Yu is now alone has more than a thousand counties, which is almost equivalent to the size of China in his previous life.
Not to mention that there are more than ten countries in this world that are equivalent to the Ming Dynasty, some of which have a larger area, and there are areas controlled by demons, this world is quite huge.
The huge world has a huge population, and many strong people have been born out of such a large population. The strength of each country is absolutely strong. Even if the Ming Dynasty is in the end of the world, it is still not something to be underestimated.
Not to mention anything else, let's just say that among the more than ten Tier 6 masters on the bright side of the Ming Dynasty, there are a few Tier 7 masters on top of it. As for the Immortal God level of Tier 8, I don't know if there are any.
However, it is estimated that the Mortal Dynasty can now compete with those major sects, but it is not at a disadvantage. It should be at the level of an eighth-level fairy god.
That is to say, the biggest problem facing Zhong Yu at the moment is not grabbing land, but what is the reaction of the Ming Dynasty after winning these lands?
If their reaction was very intense, and there would be more than a dozen sixth-level people coming out to greet him, then even if Zhong Yu had monstrous abilities and the soldiers under his command were extremely powerful, it would be difficult to deal with.
And even if he was lucky enough to be able to repel these strong men, even the stronger seventh-level ones, and even real gods, how should he deal with them?
Now the Ming Dynasty can be sure that there should be 20 powerhouses above the sixth level, and Zhong Yu is the only one on the side of the sixth level.
Among the same level, although Zhong Yu is extremely powerful, but the gap in numbers has reached an extreme point, coupled with the gap in realm, it is simply not something he can handle.
Zhong Yu thought about it, but in the end he still didn't know how to break this situation.
"Forget it, the timing is not clear now, we should observe for a while to see how the battle in Guide Mansion is going, and then deal with it."
The strength gap between the two sides is too big, so big that any conspiracy is useless, and the enemy can completely break the situation with strength.
Therefore, it is the most correct and appropriate to lie dormant now and wait for the opportunity.
What's more, now Zhong Yu's judgment on this world is not accurate.
After all, it is only a news deduction from a small county town. Compared with this vast and boundless world, it is nothing at all. If you don't even know the real secrets, it is easy to suffer a disadvantage if you come forward rashly.
What's more, this county is here and it won't run away. With the weak power of this county, Zhong Yu can take it down whenever he wants, and there is no need to worry at all.
Now let's take a look at the battle in Guide Mansion!
One month after Zhong Yu came to this small county, the demon king of Huangshan, who was in the surrounding mountains and forests, led his 30,000 demon soldiers to attack Guidefu City, which had lasted for about February.
There are no sixth-level powerhouses in Guide Mansion City, and there are only more than 40 fifth-level powerhouses in the city. This is because it is located in the frontier, and the strong people come to experience more, and the empire's defenses are relatively elite.
However, although there are not many high-level powerhouses, there are still enough low-level soldiers.
How can I say that Guidefu City is also a county-level administrative region, and there are eight or nine counties under its rule, with a combined population of one million people.
Such a large population can naturally breed a lot of strong people. In addition to the surrounding mountains, the people under the rule often go out to the mountains to hunt. Everyone is strong, and the chance of strong people is even greater.
So after mobilization of the entire prefecture city, 30,000 second-tier soldiers have been recruited, and there are 10,000 third-tier and even fourth-tier powerhouses with such a thousand people, their strength can be called terrifying.
Coupled with the overtime formation of the Fucheng itself, after the city protection formation is activated, it will be quite difficult for the Demon King of Huangshan to break through as a sixth-level strength.
For a while, the entire Guide Mansion's war came to a stalemate.
However, although the Fucheng is difficult to capture for a while, the small counties around the Fucheng do not have any defensive formations.
So after encountering a hard bone, the Demon King of Huangshan changed his strategy. Except for leaving 10,000 demon soldiers to follow him to monitor the Fucheng, he sent all the remaining 20,000 demon soldiers to the more affluent county behind the Fucheng. There wantonly devour the population.
All of a sudden, the other county towns behind Guide Mansion fell into bad luck.
Originally, they thought that they were in the rear, and there was a guide city in front of them, so it should be quite safe. Although the defense was under martial law, compared with Gui's city located on the front line, it was almost as if there was no security.
In addition, for the sake of the safety of the Fucheng, the Lord Fu Yin of the Fucheng had almost drawn most of the military force in the rear county, and all of them were drawn to the Fucheng to assist in the defense, but the rear became an empty place for defense.
All of a sudden, in the face of the wolves and tigers of the monster clan army, these county towns with weak defense forces, in the face of the situation where most of the combat power has been drawn, how can they resist.
In just half a month, four counties fell, and only two counties next to other prefectures were not captured.
This is because the nearby states and counties are afraid that the monster soldiers will ravage their territory, so they take the initiative to send troops to two county towns to assist in the defense, in an attempt to keep the enemy out of the country.
Since this belongs to the south, Hecheng County, which is surrounded by demons, has not suffered from the disaster of swords and soldiers. This is probably because this small county is regarded by those demons as meat in the pot, which can be eaten at any time, so there is no rush to attack Bar!
Facing the crisis of the entire prefecture falling, the governor of Guide Mansion urgently asked for help from his superior, the governor and governor of Dongjiang Province.
The administrative division of this world dynasty is roughly the same, divided into provinces, state capitals, and counties. The chief officials of a province are divided into governors, who are in charge of civil affairs. Governor, in charge of military affairs.
The strength of the governor in charge of administration is unclear, but he is usually a fifth-tier powerhouse.
However, the governor of a province in charge of military affairs is a proper sixth-rank powerhouse, and it is usually used as a deterrent to suppress Xiaoxiao in a province, so it is not easy to use it like this.
But now that the Huangshan Demon King is coming to his door, he is about to seize one of the seven state capitals in Dongjiang Province. As the governor of a province, how can the sixth rank in charge of military affairs be able to sit still.
Therefore, the sixth-level powerhouse in Dongjiang Province, the martial sage Qin Ming who has practiced martial arts and has reached the holy realm, after receiving the help from the Governor of Guide, personally commanded 30,000 third-level, 5,000-level fourth-level troops, a total of 35,000 troops rushed to help Guide government.
Where the army passed along the way, those monster soldiers who were scattered everywhere and wantonly devoured the population suffered a devastating blow.
By the time the reinforcements arrived at Guidefu City, the army had already wiped out about 5,000 demon soldiers along the way.
The rest of the demon soldiers also fled to the city of Guide Mansion, joined forces with the Demon King of Huangshan, and prepared to fight a big battle with the army of Dongjiang Province.
