The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

Chapter 230-Huihu leaves the country

Changan.

Daming Palace.

"Ah this——"

When Emperor Xianzong of Tang, Li Chun, looked at the memorial presented to him, he felt that the world was changing too fast.

A few months ago, he sent Master Puxuan and his party, asking them to take the Buddha's bones, rewards, and various letters of appointment, and go to the Western Regions via Huihu to appease the ghost cavalry in Anxi.

However, not long after Master Puxuan and others left, Baoyi Khan sent someone to complain, saying that his brother was innocently beaten to death by the Anxi army and demanded an explanation.

At that time, Emperor Xianzong of Tang was speechless. Given the domineering nature of the Huihu people, they would never come to complain unless they suffered a great loss.

He thought he could take this opportunity to teach these disobedient guys a lesson, and since the war in Hexi had already started, he decided to delay the process.

But not long after, he received news again.

The envoys heading to Anxi were killed!

The Huihu people actually gathered an army to attack the delegation, and most of the delegation were either killed or captured.

Emperor Xianzong of Tang was furious!

Baoyi Khan, you are looking for death, aren't you?

I didn't care about your domineering behavior before, so you really think you are so important?

This time, they even dared to rob the supplies he was giving to Anxi! ?

It's not okay without teaching him a lesson.

He immediately prepared to deal with Huihu.

I still don't believe it. Are you more cruel than the three towns in Hebei?

However, he had not yet selected the envoy who would go to the Huihu Empire to hold people accountable, gather information, and win over Baoyi Khan's enemies.

The Huihu Empire sent people again.

However, this time he was neither complaining, nor asking for a reward, nor coming to explain a "misunderstanding."

Instead, he requested Hui Hu to leave the country and restore the Yanran Protectorate and the Hanhai Protectorate.

"Is Baoyi Khan crazy?" Tang Xianzong's first reaction was that Huihu Khan had gone insane.

But then, news came from the border.

"what?"

"Because the Huihu people stole the reward I gave them, the Grand Protector of Anxi ordered his troops to march directly onto the grasslands?"

"Both Baoyi Khan and the Great Wrathful Wind, who had fled to Huihu, were killed by the Grand Protector of Anxi?"

"And now the Prince of Guiyi is slaughtering people on the grasslands, wiping out dozens of tribes?"

"Were all the people who were killed possessed by the Prince of Guiyi as evil spirits?"

"So now the Huihu people are fleeing south with their families?"

"Many people would rather sell themselves into slavery than return to the grasslands?"

The news from the border left Emperor Xianzong of Tang stunned.

Is it possible that not only Baoyi Khan is crazy, but also the generals at the border are crazy?

But as more news came, Emperor Xianzong of Tang was shocked to find that such an absurd thing was actually true!

Some of the grassland princes and nobles who were blocked at the border actually abandoned their tribes and ran to Chang'an to cry for mercy from the Khan.

"Heavenly Khan!!"

"Have mercy!"

"We don't dare anymore!"

"Please spare us this time!"

Outside the palace, countless Huihu people knelt and kowtowed, bleeding profusely.

They howled day and night, becoming a strange sight in Chang'an.

It's just that their perceptions are slightly different.

“We can also believe in Buddhism!”

The Huihu people did not connect the killing of Baoyi Khan with the robbery of the diplomatic mission at all.

After all, Shu Yichao never explained why before he attacked someone.

In addition, those who put up the most fierce resistance were often the Manichean mages, so these mages were also the ones who were shot the most thoroughly.

Therefore, the Huihu people believed that they had believed in the wrong religion and that the Black Lotus Buddha had come to destroy the world.

As for why I want to go to the country——

The nobles, bureaucrats, and chiefs have all been chopped to pieces by Shu Yichao. How can this country still be run?

Doesn’t the Khan have to send or select officials to govern?

In this regard, Emperor Xianzong of Tang decided...

"Explore again!"

It can be fatal to make rash decisions without clarifying the situation.

By the way, take this opportunity to buy some more cheap war horses.

Liangzhou.

“Wu, wu——”

The passionate sound of war drums and the desolate sound of trumpets rang out together on the bloody battlefield.

Near Liangzhou, which is considered the most important fortress in Hexi, the Tang army that arrived here and the Tumo army that was trapped here launched a life-and-death battle.

The rumbling footsteps made the earth tremble violently.

The rune crossbows whizzed past, plowing bloody grooves in the square formation.

Spells flew in clusters, descending like flowers from the sky, stirring up desolate and desperate cries among the crowd.

The chanting of spells, the hysterical shouting, and the chaotic sound of weapons clashing together played a song called death on this battlefield.

The Tang army, wearing sophisticated rune armor and armed with strong bows and Mo Dao, gradually gained the upper hand.

In this battle, the wizard group of the Tumo army was first suppressed by the Taoist team of the Tang army, which had stronger magic power and more experience.

Then the regular troops were repeatedly attacked by the local vassal troops of the Tang army, which wore down their fighting spirit.

By the time the Tang court's Shen Ce Army rushed up, they could no longer hold on.

The commander-in-chief of the Tang army keenly discovered that the Tumo army's formation was gradually disintegrating.

In some places, they could no longer maintain their formation and began to retreat into rout. Even the camp in the rear was in turmoil.

So he immediately gave the order.

"Dragon Guards—attack!"

"Buzz!" The command flag flashed, and in the noisy battlefield, the order was accurately conveyed to the Dragon Blood Cavalry on the flank.

Then, on the flank of the Tumo army, more than two thousand cavalrymen wearing gold and red rune armor and riding half-mounted horses raised the flag of charge.

The war horses they rode were all of enormous size, with dragon whiskers growing around their noses, dragon horns on their heads, and eyes as sharp as lightning. They were obviously no ordinary horses!

that's the truth.

“Transform into a dragon!!”

As they chanted the spell, the dragon-blooded divine horses immediately transformed into powerful beast-like dragons with golden scales.

The sunlight shines on them, and everywhere they look is a dazzling golden light!

There was no need to wait for them to launch an attack. The terrifying aura that came towards them alone was enough to throw the Tumo army into chaos.

"not good!"

"The Tang Army's dragoons are about to charge!"

"Don't run!"

"Everyone, get back to your seats!"

"How can we stop it? Run away!"

The Tumo army was in chaos, with many soldiers trampling on each other, unable to advance or retreat.

But how they respond is not important!

Because in the howling clouds and fog, the Tang army's Shenlong Guard had already swept into Tumo's army like a storm -

Use flying!

"Bang bang bang!"

All I saw were beast-like dragons, each spitting out fire, lightning, and strong winds.

They first used all kinds of breath to make the Tumo army cry for their parents.

Then they rushed forward again, smashing the Tumo army into a bloody mess. The Tumo army's heavy enchanted armor was as fragile as paper under their attack.

Smoke and fire gushed out, and even the immovable war slave troops were shattered by their wanton collision.

For a moment, the flying blood mist even dyed the wind and sand into a blood red, and there was even a rare brief silence on the battlefield.

And after the silence, there was a complete and utter defeat.

Chapter 231 - Drought Demon

"Don't run!"

"Hold it all to me!"

No matter how Tumo's supervisory team carried their swords and killed the deserters, they could not prevent the situation from collapsing.

"Kill, kill, kill!!"

The Dragon Guards roared and shouted, shaking the sky.

"Our army will win!"

A small number of Tumo's cavalry tried to stop the Dragon Guard's charge.

But whether it was the horse cavalry, the camel cavalry, or even a few giant wolf cavalry—

In front of the dragon-blood cavalry who had transformed into dragons, they were as powerless as little children fighting against strong men. In just a moment, they were completely overwhelmed.

Afterwards, the Shenlong Guards chased the defeated army with great momentum and rushed into the empty camp of the Tumo army in one breath, setting fire and killing people wantonly.

The Tumo army did not expect that the Tang army would break through the camp so quickly.

The soldiers who had retreated earlier had not had time to rest, and the war slaves, wizards, warriors, and slaves were all mixed together in the camp, leaving them completely unprepared.

Faced with the Tang army's surprise attack, the Tumo army, whose morale was already low due to successive defeats, fell into complete chaos.

Some wanted to fight back, some wanted to form a defensive formation, and some wanted to retreat and regroup.

The entire army disintegrated from top to bottom. Soldiers couldn't find their generals, and generals couldn't find their soldiers. In the end, they could only collapse and be annihilated! !

"Hahaha!!"

After the overwhelming victory, the commander of the Tang army pointed excitedly into the distance.

"Tell the brothers that Liangzhou is right in front of us!"

"The tremendous achievement of reopening the Hexi Road will soon fall upon us!"

But just as the Tang army commander was preparing to advance towards Liangzhou, a starling with a faint glow suddenly flew near the general's platform.

"General Jie!" the mynah bird called out loudly.

"A group of soldiers and horses appeared from the direction of Liangzhou!"
