The next afternoon, Zhongyue Songshan Mountain.
Ling Feng took a group of his wives and children to visit Songshan Mountain. At this time, there were no Buddhist temples or martial arts sects in Songshan Mountain, but there was a Zhongyue Temple.
The Zhongyue Mountain God has a long history. This temple was built during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but it has fallen into disrepair and there is only an old temple.
After Ling Feng and others played for a while, they hunted game, took out the tableware and barbecued in front of the temple.
If Zhongyue Temple was at its peak in the past, the temple ministers would definitely drive Ling Feng and others away on the pretext of blasphemy. However, now that he had Ling Feng's incense money, he let it go.
Ye Xianglan, Wu Ran, Xiao Qiao, Bu Lianshi and other women were in the mood to appreciate the mountain scenery and enjoy the freedom outside the palace.
Next to them, Ling Xue and Ling Yue started arguing again over food.
Ling Feng smiled and shook his head, but did not try to persuade him. His spiritual thoughts swept through the entire Songshan Mountain, and he vaguely felt the aura of the divine realm. It seemed that the Songshan Lord God had not fallen yet, but the situation must not be very good, otherwise the incense would not be there. So cold.
At night, Ling Feng sat cross-legged in the temple and practiced breathing and breathing.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man with a majestic face, wearing a crown of Huang Su and wearing a yellow jade Taiyi crown, suddenly appeared, cupped his hands and said, "I have met the Emperor of Chu!"
Ling Feng opened his eyes and said with a smile: "Songshan Lord is so polite. I'm here late at night, but do you have something important to do?"
Lord Songshan said: "I heard that the Emperor of Chu is about to go on an expedition to the northern grassland, and I have something special to tell you. There is a wolf demon who has practiced Taoism for a thousand years in the northern grassland, but often feeds on human blood. The barbarians in the grassland are afraid of the wolf demon's magic power, so they regard it as a god. , named the Heavenly Wolf God, he often made blood sacrifices to seek protection. If the Emperor of Chu wanted to conquer the grassland, this demon would definitely be a danger. This wolf demon had practiced for thousands of years. Although he had not achieved the third level of earthly immortality, he had also developed an immortal demon body and magical power. Deep. Even though Emperor Chu has powerful magic power, he must be careful."
Ling Feng was secretly shocked after hearing this, and immediately clasped his fists and said, "Thank you so much for telling me, I will order people to rebuild the Zhongyue Temple to thank you for your kindness."
The Lord God of Songshan was stunned for a moment, so he just rebuilt the temple and didn't give him a king's title or anything?
Ling Feng naturally knew the plans of Songshan Monarch and God, but the dynasty's conferment on the gods represented a huge expenditure of luck. Although the news about Songshan Lord God had a big impact on him, it was not worthy of a king-level title. He said seriously: "Junshen, the laws of this dynasty emphasize clear rewards and punishments. Although I want to give Junshen a title of king, I also need a reason. However, if Junshen is willing to protect Luoyang, he will protect the Chu royal family in the future. , I not only give the deity the title of king, but also order the officials of the imperial court to go to Songshan Mountain every three years to conduct sacrifices, so as to ensure that the incense of Songshan Mountain is flourishing."
Songshan Junshen was quite moved. He was not an immortal born in the immortal world, but a deity with a soul, unable to practice, and had a certain need for incense. These promises from Ling Feng were undoubtedly very attractive to him. However, if a god is involved with a human dynasty, he or she may flourish because of the dynasty's ennoblement, or he may eventually fall because of it. Therefore, he hesitated.
However, after hesitating for a moment, Songshan Lord God still chose to agree. After all, if the incense is not improved, he, the mountain god, may fall into a deep sleep.
The next day, Ling Feng returned to the court and decreed that the God of Zhongyue Mountain should be named the King of Zhongtian, and the court would be ordered to offer sacrifices once every three years.
…
Time passed by, and another year passed in the blink of an eye. Entering the fourth year of Tianyuan, Ling Feng finally decided to go on a personal expedition, leaving behind an incarnation of his soul, and led millions of Shura Blood Guards and tens of millions of troops to conquer the Southern Xiongnu and Xianbei.
At this time, the Xiongnu had already been divided into two parts, with the northern Xiongnu fleeing to the west and the southern Xiongnu living in the north of Bingzhou. To the north of its territory is Xianbei, and there are also the Wuhuan tribes in the north of Youzhou. Because Wuhuan did not have a unified political power and was the weakest, with Zhuge Liang's diplomatic methods, he had decided to surrender to Da Chu.
Wuhuan had originally returned to the Eastern Han Dynasty, but as the court's strength declined in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, their strength increased significantly. They robbed border fortresses many times and killed officials, and were later defeated by Gongsun Zan. At this time, Da Chu unified the world and created a powerful new dynasty. They naturally chose to join him again.
Ling Feng organized Wuhuan into five divisions: left, right, south, north and center, and placed them in various parts of Youzhou. He took out the elites to form cavalry, with Wuhuan nobles as commanders, and his confidants as Sima, responsible for supervision. Among Ling Feng's tens of millions of troops, there were millions of Wuhuan cavalry. Most of the cavalry and horses formed by Ling Feng were obtained from various Wuhuan ministries.
Ling Feng's first attack was the Southern Xiongnu. At this time, the Southern Xiongnu's Chan was Yu Fuluo, and the Southern Xiongnu had a population of tens of millions. All men could ride horses and shoot arrows, and all the people were soldiers, so they were not weak. He was once defeated by Yuan Shao, took refuge with Yuan Shao, and later rebelled.
At this time, Ling Feng's army was approaching fiercely, and its strength far exceeded that of Yuan Shao. Yu Fuluo did not dare to fight, so he led his tribe to move north early, hoping to rely on the vast geographical advantages of the grassland to defeat Ling Feng's army.
However, Ling Feng led 500,000 Shura Blood Guards to pursue him. The Southern Huns brought their families and luggage with them. How could they outrun the Shura Blood Guards who were at the level of Taoist soldiers? They were overtaken soon.
Although the Southern Xiongnu had a large number of troops, they had too few Dao soldiers, only 200,000, otherwise they would not have been defeated by Yuan Shao. After a great battle, the Southern Xiongnu suffered a disastrous defeat, and Yu Fu Luo surrendered. All tribesmen were guarded by Ling Feng's five million troops and moved south.
Among them, two million elite troops were led by Fu Luo's younger brother Hu Chuquan. Along with Ling Feng's million Shura Blood Guards and other troops, they continued north to conquer Xianbei.
At this time, the various tribes of Xianbei had just been unified by Ke Bineng, and the royal court was established in Danhan Mountain.
When Kebi heard the news that Ling Feng had defeated the Southern Huns, he couldn't help but summon the leaders of various ministries to discuss countermeasures.
Ke Bineng said: "Now Emperor Chu of the Great Chu Dynasty has led millions of Taoist soldiers to attack. What are your countermeasures?"
"Ordinary Han people are not as strong and brave as us, but the Taoist army of the Han people is very powerful and numerous, so it is difficult to deal with it. How about we sacrifice to the Wolf God for help. In addition, we can also ask the priests of the Wolf Temple to help fight. Use witchcraft to enhance the combat capabilities of your tribe.”
The other tribal leaders also nodded.
So, the group began to sacrifice cattle, sheep, animals and slaves to the Wolf God, hoping to seek protection.
Seven days later, Ling Feng's army arrived near Danhan Mountain and began a decisive battle with Xianbei.
At this time, the two armies were confronting each other. Ling Feng looked with Taixu Heavenly Eyes and discovered that the strength of the Xianbei tribe was indeed not weak. There were actually about 500,000 Taoist soldiers. It was suspected that the Xianbei leader Ke Bineng also had the cultivation level of the heavenly realm. However, the most concerning thing was the evil young man sitting next to Ke Bineng.
Although this young man looks handsome, he has an evil temperament that is not human. And this person's cultivation level was even more unfathomable, giving him a sense of threat.
