Chapter 1274 – Six Countries Destroyed, Four Oceans Under One

On the 24th day of the month, the four armies of Great Xia proceeded toward the capital of the Mongol Empire – Karakorum. Looking at how aggressive they were, they were determined to end the Mongol Empire before winter.

The truth was exactly that.

27th day, Guo Ziyi led the Phoenix legion corps to engage Chagatai’s forces once more. This time, Guo Ziyi did not give him any chance and totally destroyed his forces.

Even Chagatai himself died in battle.

At this point, a prince and two generals from the Mongol Empire had died, and the defenses on the east of the empire had been totally broken down.

When Tolei learned of the death of his second brother, he ignored Genghis Khan’s attempts to stop him and personally led troops out of Karakorum to fight the Phoenix legion corps. He wanted to take revenge for his brother.

The result was really cruel.

12th month, 2nd day, Tolei’s forces suffered a combined ambush by the Phoenix and Beijiang legion corps, suffering heavy casualties.

Tolei himself was badly hurt, and he only managed to charge out of the encirclement thanks to the protection of his Personal Guards. Helplessly, before he was able to return to Karakorum, he died from his injuries due to the failed attempts at treating him.

12th month, 5th day, Jochi’s troops that were going toward Karakorum were surrounded by the Hedong and Eagle legion corps. Jochi did not even manage to breakout and was slain by Eagle Legion corps general Xiahou Yuan. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎

Mongol Empire, all lines crushed.

After he learned about Tolei’s death, Genghis Khan could not take it anymore. He laid on his bed and rested, suffering from a great illness. When news of Jochi dying came, Genghis Khan spat out blood and entered a coma. 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m

Karakorum instantly entered a state of chaos.

The faction that supported surrendering held the advantage, especially the Mongol nobles that were corrupted and influenced by goods from the mid plans. If Karakorum did not have the Personal Guards of Genghis Khan there, the chaos would have been even worse.

12th month, 6th day, Genghis Khan who barely woke up could not take the successive deaths of his sons and other family members. In the dead of night, he killed himself.

The moment news of his death spread out, Karakorum was thrown into total chaos.

When Ouyang Shuo received the news of Genghis Khan killing himself, he ordered the Eagle and Hedong legion corps to stop their advance toward Karakorum. Instead, they were to go west to wipe out the other small forces on the grassland.

The Phoenix and Beijiang legion corps were enough to take down Karakorum.

12th month, 10th day, the Phoenix legion corps and Beijiang legion corps engaged with Genghis Khan’s personal troops, killing 90 thousand of them, wiping out the last bit of pride of the Mongol Empire.

That battle was the most intense one.

The Mongol cavalry were not good at defending cities. After the death of Genghis Khan, they were like a bunch of crazy people. They only wanted to fight to the death, not bothering about their lives.

Facing such a crazy army, Guo Ziyi’s army was really calm. They used the rashness of the enemy to wipe them out step by step like a surgeon.

Through this battle, Guo Ziyi’s name spread through the land.

The war of Mongolia saw Chen Yucheng get famous in one battle. Guo Ziyi went one step further than that. He led the Phoenix legion corps to destroy Chagatai’s forces, killed Tolei’s troops, and crushed Genghis Khan’s personal army. He achieved victory in three out of three battles.

The name of Guo Ziyi stunned the entire Mongol grassland and made the Mongolians terrified.

…

From the 11th month, 13th day, the Mongol Empire declared war until the 12th month, 11th day. On that day, Karakorum was occupied by the Phoenix legion corps. Less than a month had passed since the start of the war. The Mongol Empire that looked strong totally became a thing of the past.

The moment news of this spread out, the entire Asia was shocked.

For example, the Persian Empire that had crossed swords with the Mongol Empire were filled with fear. They could not imagine how the courageous Mongol iron cavalry would be so weak in front of the Great Xia Army.

The Asia Continent once again felt the strength of the Great Xia Army.

Unstoppable!

The current Great Xia was showing signs of becoming the Overlord of Asia and was about to take flight.

…

Along with the fall of Karakorum, the Mongolians were finally afraid and lost all their fighting spirit.

Blood was hot, but it would cool down in the end.

In a short month, 350 thousand Mongol Empire soldiers had died, nearly half. The entire Mongolian grassland was dyed in blood.

Many bald eagles circled above the grassland, enjoying this hard to come by feast.

The Mongolians who had lost their loved ones dejectedly rushed to the various battlefields to collect the bodies of their sons, brothers, and even fathers to bury them.

On the battlefield, their cries filled the air.

No, not only the battlefield, but even the entire Mongol grassland fell into a crying frenzy.

To protect the pride of the Mongol cavalry, the Mongolians had paid a price in blood. In front of the sharp Great Xia Army, they let out painful screams that turned into fear in the end.

This fear was dyed red by blood and seeped deep into their bones.

Apart from fear, there was also animosity and resentment. It was easy for Great Xia to take down the Mongol Empire, but they would have to put in several times the hard work to rule this land well.

This was why Ouyang Shuo wanted to solve this without war in the beginning.

However, the development of the situation pushed the two sides onto an unknown battlefield. Eventually, Great Xia used this trial of blood and fire to establish their Emperor dynasty’s unshakeable position in China.

Ouyang Shuo was already unable to evaluate the wins and losses of this war.

…

12th month, 12th day, House of Ogedai.

Under the ferocious attacks of the Great Xia Army, especially the valiant chase of Wang Jian’s forces, less than 200 thousand of them remained.

Bo’er Shu, the person who caused the destruction of Wang Ben’s troops, was personally killed by Wang Jian.

News had it that Wang Jian used Bo’er Shu’s head to pray to Wang Ben and the 70 thousand soldiers that died with him. He swore that he would get Ogedai’s head to pray for them.

If Bo’er Shu was the offender, Ogedai would be the mastermind.

However, just as Wang Jian was ready to lead his troops to continue chasing the remnant enemy forces, he helplessly realized that at least in the 7th year of Gaia, he would not be able to fulfill that promise.

Along with the main force dying, the morale of the Mongol army fell to a freezing point.

Ogedai was finally afraid.

He, along with the only person remaining out of the four heroes – Chi Laowen, led the 200 thousand remaining troops to retreat into the Persia Empire, giving the House of Ogedai up.

Without a military order, Wang Jian was not allowed to attack the Persia Empire.

Furthermore, as the 12th month had arrived, winter was coming, and it was not suitable for the armies to attack. Hence, he could only end his chase.

…

12th month, 15th day, the capital of the House of Ogedai, Loulan, fell.

At this point, the Mongol Empire was truly destroyed, only leaving behind some overseas cities that could let them breathe for a while longer. When the spring season begins, Great Xia planned to send troops to Persia to take back the last bit of inheritance of the Mongol Empire.

If they could take back the Persian cities conquered by the Mongol Empire, it would be really helpful for the Empire in their attacks on Persia. It could save a lot of manpower, resources, and troops.

Moreover, along with the Mongol Empire being destroyed, China welcomed a historical moment.

In just a year, Great Zhou, Great Song, Great Qin, Great Tang, Tibet, and Mongolia had either surrendered or were destroyed, becoming a thing of the past.

At this point, the Great Xia Emperor dynasty had finally completed its goal of unifying China.

This achievement was enough to surpass the ancients and dazzle the contemporaries!

The Great Xia Emperor dynasty also used this as a chance to open up a new page.

…

12th month, 16th day, Imperial Capital.

The current Lianzhou Basin only had a little chill. The footsteps of winter had not laid themselves onto the basin. The imperial capital in the middle of the basin was like a shining pearl, really eye-catching.

Ouyang Shuo stood at the city wall of the emperor palace. Looking at the blue sky, he muttered, “Six countries destroyed, four oceans unified.” His tone was calm, but it could not hide his pride and ambition.

His calm tone contained an aura that swallowed mountains and a brimming determination.

The dreams of many generations, but only one could succeed.

“To have such a life, what more can I ask for?”

Behind him stood the civil servants and generals. They were all witnessing this historical moment together. In their eyes, the determined and resilient back view of the emperor was growing bigger and bigger like a giant.

This giant carried the entire empire.

Even Gaia in the city in the skies could not help but look down at this legendary figure with its eyes shining.

Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
