From NPC To Overlord

Back to Luoyang, it is the first day of October.

It has been seven days since the battle of Chang'an.

The food and grass are prepared, and the soldiers are rectified. All are in place.

So after returning to the palace, Gu Chong directly summoned the generals to the imperial study to discuss matters and arrange positions.

There are also a few more players' faces.

Gu Chong transferred all the players from the land of Bashu, and also attracted a large number of players who had come to join him. Now the number of players has reached 18,000.

This time Gu Chong intends to dispatch 300,000 soldiers and horses. This number of players with less than 20,000 seems to be a bit inconspicuous, but these people are all immortal, and the overall quality is not low, enough to be worth the 100,000 army. .

It's just that the players behave strangely, they are mercenary, they are notorious, and when they see the emperor's etiquette, they are also a bit pretentious. Many generals actually don't like to be in the company of players.

This may be the generation gap.

In the imperial study, the generals were still arguing about who should be the vanguard.

In fact, the vanguard team has always been a thankless job, and it has become cannon fodder if you are not careful, but this time the emperor is driving in person, and this has become a sweet pastry to express yourself, and no one wants to let it go easily.

After thinking about it again and again, Gu Chong still left this "important task" to the player.

No way, who made the player his heart and soul?

Anyway, players can't be killed, they die early and respawn early... Oh no, it's the early death and early resurrection.

On the same day, after the assignment of the duties, Gu Chong personally led a 300,000-strong army all the way south. On the way, he encountered tens of thousands of rebels who robbed and robbed their homes, and surrounded and killed them on the Qinling battlefield in one fell swoop. It was a warm-up.

To be precise, it is to warm up the players.

Before the 300,000-strong army made a move, a group of players screamed and rushed towards the group of red-named NPCs, killing corpses everywhere.

In line with the principle of not accepting prisoners, as long as experience is required, in the end, not even the leader of the rebel army was left alive.

Some generals were also quite critical, thinking that they were the teachers of kings and had to be benevolent and righteous, but Gu Chong was no longer surprised.

The purpose of his personal expedition this time was to feed the hungry players, and then let them spit it out.

Just like the osprey raised by fishermen, do you think the fish that comes to your mouth is yours?

Then you are too naive.

As the saying goes, soldiers are expensive, but Gu Chong had absolutely no idea in this regard.

Even though the army was advancing slowly, it still arrived at the foot of Jinling City after ten days.

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){} Jinling is located on the south bank of the Yangtze River, with the Yangtze River as a natural defense line in the north, and the Jiangnan plain and hills in the south. Surrounded by water, it is an excellent defensive place.

Since the late Eastern Han Dynasty, it has gradually been regarded by the rulers as a battleground for military strategists. Once Jinling is occupied, it is possible to establish a foothold in the south of the Yangtze River.

Du Fuwei has an army of 500,000 people in his hand, and his advisors are like clouds. Such an important place will naturally be occupied early, even if the price paid at the beginning is very high, he will not hesitate.

Knowing that the Sui Emperor was in charge of his own expedition, Du Fuwei also mobilized half of his army to Jinling City, wanting to defend the city and prevent the imperial army from going south.

So the two sides launched an offensive and defensive battle in Jinling City.

Gu Chong finally replaced the player at this time, and instead let an army of 50,000 pure-blooded Hu people charge Jinling City.

Everyone knows that the Hu people are good at horseback riding and archery, but their ability to unite and coordinate is not as good as that of the Han people. If they attack the city in the first wave, it is suspected that they will die.

That's right, Gu Chong wanted them to die!

During the period of the Five Hus and Sixteen Kingdoms, during the siege of the city, the Hu people often drove the unarmed Han people to use their flesh and blood to consume the defense tools.

Compared with them, Gu Chong can only be considered kind!

Besides, Gu Chong knew very well that the Hu people were afraid of power and did not appreciate virtue, so he never planned to offer up the Hu people in the Great Sui army.

During the Wuhu period, the Jie people were almost killed by the Xianbei people in revenge. Thousands of the remaining Jie people of this tribe ran to the southern Liang Dynasty ruled area under the leadership of the background, and were accepted by the kind-hearted southern Liang Dynasty government, providing them with food and collecting them as mercenaries. .

As a result, the Hu ethnic group of less than 10,000 people, under the leadership of the background, implemented a **** genocide policy against the Han people in the south of the Yangtze River.

It turned Jiangnan, which was originally populated by thousands of miles of fertile soil, into a barren land with thousands of miles of bare bones and wild beasts.

Tu Jiankang City alone killed about 200,000 people from 40,000 households in the city.

This is the famous backstage chaos in history!

Including Li Tang's An Lushan Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty was buried.

It fully shows the wildness in the bones of the Hu people!

For these Hu people who were forced to take refuge in themselves, Gu Chong never planned to use kindness to influence them, but would use all means to consume their living strength and not give them a chance to make a comeback!

In this half-month, 50,000 Hu people suffered heavy casualties and were almost on the verge of mutiny. In the end, they were brutally and ruthlessly suppressed by Gu Chong.

Afterwards, Gu Chong ordered the army to attack, and he personally took action to break open the city gate.

As the Da Sui army rushed into the city, Du Fuwei was defeated like a mountain. The high-level personnel fled Jinling in the dark, and the 200,000 troops left alone in the city were almost slaughtered by the Da Sui army.

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){} More than half of them were slaughtered by mad dog players.

At the same time that Da Sui's player legion made a lot of money, its notoriety also resounded all over the world, and everyone was afraid.

Players from other forces saw the great Sui battles and they had a lot to gain, so they joined in one after another.

After defeating Du Fuwei, he should have pursued the victory, but Gu Chong refused.

The reason is to let the tired army rest, but it is actually to take this opportunity to attract more players to join.

Du Fuwei, under Gu Chong's intentional release of water, returned to the south, rectified the remnants, borrowed a road from the southwest, and went straight to Tongguan.

Along the way, they also caught a lot of Hu people and strong men.

Tongguan has been in danger since ancient times!

Tongguan is located in the south of Weinan~www.novelmt.com~ the Yellow River in the north and the mountainside in the south.

"Shuijing Zhu" contains: "The river flows in the south of the pass and irritates the Guanshan Mountain, so it is called Tongguan!" It is the east gate of Guanzhong, and it is located in the three provinces of Jin, Shaanxi and Henan. It is the key to the three Qins, so it became the Han Since the end of the year, it has always been a must-see for entering the Central Plains from the east and exiting from the Central and Western Regions in the west. It has always been a battleground for military strategists. reputation.

Tongguan is the last natural danger trump card in Du Fuwei's hand. If the Sui army takes Tongguan, Du Fuwei will be completely locked in the land of Qinchuan, and he will no longer be able to enter the Central Plains and Bashu, and can only develop to the Western Regions or grasslands. .

For Du Fuwei, or for his subordinates, this is the real crisis of life and death.

Before, there were counselors who suggested to Du Fuwei to fight a tug-of-war and a war of attrition with the Great Sui in the Jiangnan area.

However, in this way, the prosperous land of Jiangnan will also be destroyed. Comrade Du Jianguo, for the sake of the economy of the Great Sui Dynasty, of course did not agree to do so.

Relying on the authority of the supreme commander, he abruptly rejected this opinion, saying that he wanted to cooperate with the Turks and fight to the death with the Great Sui at Tongguan.

Hearing that the Turks helped, the others didn't say much, and could only pin their hopes on the Turks, the last golden thigh.

If this group of people were to know that Comrade Du Jianguo had no contact with the Turks at all, he was just coaxing their group of careerists and the insurgents to go to Tongguan to kill them all, as an excuse to clear up the ills of the Great Sui, I don't know how I felt.
