Chapter 754 Cannibalism
The collapsed Dongyang Army retreated to the north like a tide, and the Tianhua Army chased and killed them all the way, biting the tails of the rout soldiers, preventing them from gathering and reorganizing again.

The cavalry in ambush and tens of miles away also rushed up at this time, aiming at the cavalry of the princes.The princes from all walks of life couldn't help being shocked when they saw it, but they didn't panic too much. When they saw that the opponent had only more than 3000 cavalry, while their own had more than [-] cavalry, their courage suddenly became stronger, and they immediately assembled to face the enemy. Confrontation.

Unexpectedly, before the cavalry approached, the Tianhua cavalry first attacked with a burst of bows and crossbows, damaging thousands of soldiers and horses in an instant.Then the two armies collided, and the Dongyang cavalry was directly pierced through the army formation, causing heavy casualties.

The remaining cavalrymen were terrified, they didn't have the confidence to fight against the Tianhua cavalry at all, so they immediately turned around and fled.The Tianhua cavalry were not willing to let go, and immediately chased after them, gnawing at the defeated army continuously.

"Run!" Seeing this, the princes felt distressed and terrified, and immediately fled north frantically with the remaining cavalry.

After several hours of pursuit, the whole army was exhausted, so Lin Yifan gave the order to stop the pursuit.

In this battle, the Tianhua Army wiped out a total of more than 5000 people from the allied forces of the princes and captured 6 people. Among them, they killed three princes and captured five people.Only [-] remnants of the other princes escaped, and they were no longer able to resist Tianhua.In this battle, Tianhua also suffered more than [-] casualties. At this time, there were only more than [-] combatants in the entire army.

After winning the siege of the imperial capital, Lin Yifan did not order the army to go northward with all its strength. Instead, the whole army stationed at the imperial capital and took a defensive posture.

At this time in the north, after the defeat, the princes immediately returned to their territories and vigorously recruited young and strong to join the army. In a short period of time, they finally recovered some strength.But everyone knows that the military strength has been restored, but the combat strength cannot be restored in a short time.Once the Tianhua army goes north, none of them is an opponent, even if they unite.

At this time, the previous imperial order began to make them calculate.Today's Huajun is so powerful that it is no longer able to fight against it.If you can take the heads of other princes and preserve your own territory, it is also a good choice.What's more, you can expand your own territory by the way, which is far better than uniting again to fight a war with no chance of winning.

Soon, great wars broke out among the princes in the north, and the fighting was extremely enjoyable.But Emperor Dongyang was even worse. In the imperial order, he was more valuable than everyone else. As long as he could be captured and sent back to the imperial capital, it would be far better than fighting to the death with the other princes.

As a result, Emperor Dongyang quickly became the target of public criticism, and princes from all walks of life sent troops to arrest him.He could only lead a thousand cavalry, and they kept fleeing in the wilderness.Under such circumstances, the cavalry wavered one after another, and some people left quietly every day.In less than ten days, there were only three hundred cavalry left in a thousand cavalry.

At this time, Dongyang Emperor was finally desperate. After [-] cavalry plundered a village, although they got food, they were also found by the local princes who were chasing them.Soon, thousands of people swarmed over and blocked them in a mountain depression.

Faced with the siege of thousands of soldiers and horses, the three hundred cavalry could no longer hold on and surrendered one after another.The Dongyang Emperor was distraught and wanted to commit suicide, but was caught by his subordinates and given to the princes as a certificate of honor.

The local princes couldn't help being overjoyed when they got the Dongyang Emperor, and quickly sent a troop to escort the Dongyang Emperor to the south.Unexpectedly, this news soon spread to the ears of other princes. The nearby princes immediately turned red-eyed, and immediately led an army to kill and scatter the team escorting Dongyang Emperor, and took it into their own hands.

Naturally, the local princes were not reconciled, and immediately led an army to declare war on the nearby princes. In order to get Dongyang Emperor, the two sides did not hesitate to fight.Just when the local vassals were victorious, another family of vassals suddenly launched an attack and defeated this tragically victorious army in one fell swoop, not only occupying the lord's territory, but even Dongyang Emperor fell into his hands.

In this way, no matter which family Dongyang Emperor falls into, the princes of that family will be attacked by groups, and in an instant, they will be wiped out by the Tu Jun.In just half a month, the Dongyang Emperor tossed and turned in the hands of more than a dozen princes, and several princes were completely annihilated.

In the end, the Shi Yan family, one of the three major princes, finally won the Dongyang Emperor. Facing the powerful Shi Yan family, all the princes finally died down, and did not dare to make mistakes.

Shi Yan's family immediately dispatched tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to escort Dongyang Emperor to the south.Along the way, the princes from all walks of life gave way one after another. At this time, they could not fight against Shi Yan's family at all.

At this time, the Tianhua army was still entrenched in the imperial capital, and there was no movement at all.But on Penglai Island, [-] troops have completely pacified the island.With the support of the Tianhua Army, the Affiliated Army headed by the Nachuan family expanded to [-] soldiers and horses to maintain the stability of Penglai Island.

And the navy, in the southeast waters, launched a fierce battle at sea with reinforcements from the islands mainly on Fusang Island, trying their best to prevent the opponent from landing on Yingzhou.

In late January, the Shi Yan family sent Emperor Dongyang to the imperial capital. Lin Yifan was overjoyed and immediately summoned Shi Yan Takeshi, the elder of the Shi Yan family. Give it all back.

Shi Yan Wusheng couldn't help but burst into tears of gratitude, and his heart was full of joy.With this [-] fresh troops, the Shi Yan family will be the most powerful princes besides the Tianhua Army in the future.

After a thousand thanks, Shi Yan Wusheng immediately returned to the territory with tens of thousands of prisoners released.Looking at the smoke and dust of the Shi Yan family's soldiers and horses going away, Lin Yifan couldn't help showing a trace of sarcasm, and immediately said to the surrender: "You tell the other princes about this quickly, the Shi Yan family has obtained tens of thousands of elite soldiers and horses, it is already Become a running dog of Tianhua, and soon will send troops to crusade against the princes from all walks of life, preparing to unify the north."

When all the subordinates heard this, they couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat. This move was too cruel. Just as they praised Shi Yan's family, they alienated their relationship with the princes from all walks of life, which caused the princes from all walks of life to hate the Shi Yan family Suspicion, and finally another war broke out, further weakening the strength of the princes.

But at this time they had already become Tianhua's subjects, they dared not and could not reveal Tianhua's plot to the princes, they could only lament in their hearts, fearing that Yingzhou would be owned by Tianhua in the near future.

Next, Lin Yifan summoned the Dongyang Emperor in the main hall, which used to be the throne of the Dongyang Emperor.

At this time, Emperor Dongyang did not have the grace and luxury of the past. After fleeing in the north for several months, his whole body became emaciated, like an old man in his dying years.He looked at his former throne, which was already occupied by Emperor Tianhua, and looked down at him arrogantly.But he, the former emperor, crawled on top of the hall, like an old dog, kowtowing respectfully to the people above tremblingly. "The sinner Zhaoming Deren pays homage to His Majesty Emperor Tianhua."
