The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire Chapter 166: This trades and the other grows
? After a decisive battle with the main force of the Donghu people, more than 30,000 Donghu people were barely gathered. After a terrible defeat, only three thousand people escaped.
Since then, the Donghu forces around the entire royal court have been greatly reduced, and there is no longer any power to stop Zhao Yun's attack.
Only able to escape to the rear, staying far away, trying to summon more forces, using guerrilla methods to delay Zhao Yun and their attack speed.
And Zhao Yun and others, this is the opportunity to take advantage of the great victory, the morale of the army is good, and the Donghu people temporarily lose the opportunity to resist, and quickly march into their royal court.
When King Donghu died of more than 20,000 soldiers, and without any strength, he did not even dare to go back to his old base camp, Zhao Yun took advantage of this to occupy three hundred miles of land around the palace, looting and occupying more than ten people. Ten thousand people.
In addition to Zhao Yun and the others, Guan Yu, Huang Zhong and other passers-by have also reported success.
These people have either accomplished the set goal or looted the tens of thousands of people, and divided the various Donghu tribes, completely dividing the original population into one million, and more than 200,000 people who control the strings. The Donghu tribal alliance was torn apart.
But things are far from over, even though the war has gained a great advantage. But the king of Donghu fled to other places, in those tribes that have not been affected by the imperial army, and whose population strength has not suffered much. He recruited more than 20,000 people and once again formed a large-scale army.
And this time I have learnt Donghu, and I deeply understand that I am not the opponent of that group of imperial troops. Therefore, he avoided it from a distance, and never fought head-on with Zhao Yun and others, but fought guerrilla warfare everywhere. When the enemy comes, I retreat, and the enemy retreats and I fight.
The supply line of Zhao Yun and others, who had been harassing in this way, made them miserable, and the strategy of conquering the grassland was greatly delayed.
But for this, Zhong Yu had expected it long before he set out. So he is not very worried and anxious, and the rest will take time to slowly grind. Step by step, build cities and counties on the original territory of Donghu people.
Slowly cannibalize and compress their field of activity and squeeze their living space. At that time, they developed their land and digested the population of Donghu. He is getting stronger and stronger, but those Donghu people are getting weaker and weaker. Sooner or later they will die.
As a result, the strategic goal was implemented unswervingly. One county after another was already occupied. After clearing it up, no place where Donghu people were found was established.
Like one node after another, connected in series to form a big network. Slowly snare towards the Donghu people's activity area, making them nowhere to escape.
This process will continue for him for nearly a year, knowing that all counties and cities have been established, and he will completely take root in this place, after he has enough strength.
Those Donghu people who have completely lost their own people and do not have enough food sources will slowly perish themselves internally, or be discovered and annihilated by their own army!
Just when the strategy of the Donghu people had gained an advantage, the Cao Cao army in the southeast also sent good news.
After two months of hard fighting, although the capital of Jizi North Korea is majestic and tall, the defense is tight. And there are masters who have accumulated countless years to join them, and defend together with the defenders.
It's a little difficult to easily win, and those masters just assassinate high-level officers, and all kinds of small actions that can't be put on the table. Governing Cao Cao's army brought great difficulties, but then Cao Cao, who reacted, arranged for his own masters to carry out a counter-siege.
In terms of the number of masters, Cao Cao has Zhong Yu's configuration. Although he is a little bit worse than Jizi North Korea's accumulation of hundreds of years, he will not say that there is a huge difference.
After preparing and ambushing, those Jizi North Korean masters who tasted the sweetness wanted to come to another party to repeat the same trick, but they had some trouble. Countless prepared ambushes rushed forward. After all these Jizi North Korean masters were hunted and killed, only a few of them had higher strength and better luck, and fled back.
Then those Jizi North Korean masters dare not send out again. Can only shrink in the city, have been passively defensive, and constantly recruit the southern defenders, and troops from all over the world to come to King Qin.
But how are the troops coming from all over the world to support Cao Cao's elite army opponents? Batch after batch of reinforcements were directly defeated head-on by Cao Cao's army, and then disintegrated, and finally chased and killed by Cao Cao's army, with heavy losses.
After that, the army of King Qin from all over the country didn't dare to come after hearing the news, and directly said that they would bring their original place of residence and plan to see what the outcome of the battle was in the end? Then decide how to act.
After the strategy of encircling the spot and fighting aid was realized, Cao Cao left his 30,000 troops here to contain the defenders of the Korean capital of Jizi. On the other hand, she led an army of 20,000 to go to Jizi North Korea where they had sent reinforcements, but had been defeated by herself.
Occupy all those areas, and block traffic arteries and barriers in various places, completely sever the connection between the country and other places, and have eliminated the fluke of the people in the capital.
When Cao Cao led the army back to the capital again, 1/3 of the remaining area of Jizi North Korea was already occupied by Cao Cao~IndoMTL.com~ The rest was completely blocked by him, and the capital was blocked. connect.
The whole country has completely become a cage, which separates the people in the country from the outside world, can't get out and can't get in, and is directly suffocated to death.
Finally, Jizi, the capital of North Korea, resisted for more than a month. Can no longer bear this endless siege, Kaesong surrendered.
With the King’s Kaesong surrender, an order issued in the name of the King of Korea was transmitted to the local defenders throughout the country. Order them to put down their resistance and accept the reception and reorganization of the imperial army.
Most of the defenders who had been frightened had no will to fight. After the king's order, there was no nominal hesitation, and they simply surrendered.
Of course, there are also a small number of brain-disabled people who insist on not surrendering and plan to die with the country. And also supported some more remote branches of the royal family, established new monarchs, and continued to resist in some remote places.
Although these people are very tenacious in fighting, they can hardly cause any fundamental impact. They can only affect a rebellion confined to one or two counties.
You only need to wait for Cao Cao's army to sort out the entire Jizi after the whole country of North Korea, freeing up your hands, you can easily wipe them out.
So, after receiving the good news from the two battlefields one after another. Zhong Yu is already busy at this moment, embarking on emigrating the newly occupied areas from various places, and then establishing counties and counties to enrich the local preparations.
Zhong Yu took his guards and rushed to the selected addresses everywhere, and then released the civilians who had been prepared in that place, so that they could establish counties there. In this way, it is possible to avoid the rushing toil, and the consumption of materials in transportation.
