Receiving Shangguan Yuan's praise, Nan Ye was also very excited, and asked: "General Yuanyu, how should we deal with these captives from the Ning Army?"

Shangguan Yuan glanced at him and said, "Just follow the old rules."

"Old rules?" Nan Ye didn't know what the old rules were and looked at him in puzzlement.

"Our army doesn't have enough manpower or energy to care about all these captives. Kill them all!" Shangguan Yuan gave a straightforward answer.

Kill them all?! Nan Ye was secretly speechless, and his eyebrows knitted together. In his view, the enemy was no longer an enemy as long as he put down his weapon. Killing those who lost their will and ability to resist was too cruel. He pondered for a moment, then said with difficulty, "Should we report this to the King and let the King decide?"

"No need." Shangguan Yuan said in a cold voice, "Even if we were to report it to the King, the King's decision would be the same."

"But ?"

"Where do you get that crap? "Listen to my orders, and execute all of the surrendered Ning army..." Before Shangguan Yuan could finish his sentence, a person galloped in from the back. It was a joyous scene.

The joyous weather was quickly approaching as the Generals And Soldiers of Feng Army quickly retreated, opening a path for him. He rushed to Shangguan Yuanyu and Nan Ye's side, and then quickly reined his warhorse in. The warhorse circled around once before coming to a stop.

Shangguan Yuan was startled and asked, "Le Tian, why are you here?"

"General Yuan Yi!" Le Tian cupped his hands on his horse and sternly said, "The King has ordered that all the captive troops of the Ning Army be brought to the front of the new army, to be used as meat shields!"

Shangguan Yuan was startled, then laughed out loud and patted his head, praising him: "Your Majesty has thought it through." Instead of killing all the prisoners, they might as well push them to the front of the formation. Since the Ning Army's archery formation was so powerful, they could just shoot their own men first.

He turned his head and said to Nan Ye: "Nan Ye, did you hear that clearly? Do as the King commands! "

"Yes sir!"

After Le Tian finished speaking, he cupped his hands towards Shangguan Yuan and turned his horse, retreating back to the Central Army.

The five thousand Ning Army prisoners were split into two parts, one was placed in front of the formation, and the other was placed near Li Sheng. Five thousand people became hostages of Feng Army, and also became shields of Feng Army. As long as an arrow formation was set up above the city, the first people to be shot down would be the Ning Army.

Tang Yin's methods could be said to be despicable and despicable, but in his opinion, as long as they were on the battlefield, there would be no noble existence. He only had one goal in battle, to exchange the smallest amount of cost for the greatest possible victory.

The battlefield was a hell of fighting to the death, regardless of means.

Seeing Feng Army push all of their surrendered soldiers to the front of the formation to make meat shields, Ning Jun raised his arrows, and put them down one by one. The pulled strings of the bows also slowly loosened, and for a moment, everyone didn't know whether they should continue to shoot the arrows in their hands.

Lin Han was furious, he shouted to his left and right, "Why are you not releasing your arrows? What were they all standing there for? "Continue to shoot!"

"Milord ?" A General of Ning Country said with a trembling voice, "Feng Army... Feng Army has pushed all of our brothers onto the frontlines of the formation as shields ? "

Lin Han was not blind, and he had clearly seen the movements of the Feng Army. However, if they were to give up the lives of the soldiers at this critical moment, then there would be no way for them to fight anymore. He shouted angrily, "Those who are afraid of the enemy surrendering, they should be killed according to military law. How can they mess up our tactics because of these damnable troops? Shoot! Continue shooting! Anyone who shows mercy will be punished by military law! "

He gave the absolute order, and the Ning Soldier below did not dare to delay any further, raising their bows once again, and shot their arrows towards the Feng Army Camp on the left and right of the bow.

They did not have shields or weapons, and were bound together by a string of Feng Army, making it impossible for them to escape even if they wanted to. They could only watch as their own Arrow Rain s descended from the sky, unstoppable, unstoppable, and could only grit their teeth and endure.

Although the steel helmets on Ning Bing's body were tough, they were still unable to defend against the arrows. The sounds of arrows piercing through armor could be heard from the crowd, followed by a series of wails and howls, because Ning Jun was tied up, some people had already been shot like hedgehogs, but the people on both sides did not fall, their bodies still standing, enduring more arrows flying through the air.

The tragic scene in front stimulated the nerves of every new soldier behind them. It also made them deeply realize that once they chose to surrender on the battlefield, no one would regard themselves as a human being, not even dogs and pigs, be it their enemies or their comrades.

With the meat shield in front of the arrow formation, it greatly reduced the casualties of the new army and also allowed the Trebuchet and City-breaking Crossbow behind them to operate more smoothly.

The battle was still ongoing. It had already been more than four hours since the start of the battle, and the new army had lost more than ten of their own due to the continuous operation. The number of stones and crossbow bolts they had prepared became fewer and fewer.

Correspondingly, the fissures on the cliffs on both sides of the Wohu Pass had also grown bigger and bigger. A giant crater had been forcibly smashed into the cliff by the Feng Army, the rocks on top of the mountain were crumbling and could no longer bear the burden.

Just as Nan Ye was about to send someone back to ask if there were any more stones and crossbow arrows, suddenly, a loud piercing sound came out from the cliff in front of him. The sound was loud, like a formless blade, it went through one's ear holes and pierced into the head, causing one's brain to feel pain.

At the same time, countless stones began to fall down from the cliff. Then, the incomparably massive boulder above the cliff began to break. It slowly began to tilt downwards, rapidly rolling down the cliff. Even without hitting the ground, the moment he tightly rolled downwards, the earth would tremble and the mountains would shake. It was as if the entire Wohu Pass was trembling because of this.2

This was the first time in their lives that they had seen such a spectacular sight. The recruits all opened their mouths wide and slowly put down the shields in their hands. Even the warriors who were controlling the Trebuchet and the Trebuchet stopped what they were doing and looked ahead in a daze.

Tang Yin, who was so calm, sat on his horse and unconsciously straightened his body, almost stepping into the stirrups to stand up.

To the Feng Army s in the distance, this sight was spectacular and rarely seen. However, to the Ning Army within the Wohu Pass, especially the garrison forces that were located below the Drop Stone, this was definitely a nightmare as if they were in purgatory.

Rumble ~ ~ ~ The huge boulder finally landed. The intense earthquake that followed caused a large amount of the new army outside the city to fall.

Nan Ye was not spared, as he fell to the ground with a head full of dust and dirt, while the solid Trebuchet s all fell down one after another. The surrounding new recruits screamed in fear, and crawled and rolled as they ran out, and in that moment, everyone felt as if the sky had fallen, and the ground had collapsed.

If the new troop that was a mile away from the Wohu Pass was like this, then the scene inside the Wohu Pass could be imagined.

The center of the mountain rock did not smash onto the city wall of Wohu Pass, but instead only scraped against the edge. Even so, the collapse of the city wall of Wohu Pass was still over ten meters long, and half of the reason was because of the smash, and the other half was because of the shock. The Ning Soldier that was gathered there suddenly disappeared, and were either smashed into meat paste or broken down into broken bones and tendons, and submerged into the broken pieces of stone.

The wall that was not affected by the Drop Stone was slightly better, at least it did not collapse, but many of the Generals And Soldiers of Ning Army s that were standing in front of the arrow bridge were directly thrown out of the wall by the intense vibrations, falling outside the city, Lin Han who was standing on top of the door almost fell down from above, luckily, a famous General of Ning Country was grabbing onto his legs tightly, allowing him to escape from the calamity.

Army of Feng Army.

"Haha ?"

Tang Yin was the first person to recover from his shock. Seeing that a ten meter wide hole had been smashed into the Wohu Pass wall, he could not help but laugh out loud. Then, he asked Qiu Zhen who was beside him: "Qiu Zhen, has it been six hours since the start of the battle?"

Ah!" "Huh?" Hearing the King call his name, Qiu Zhen came back to his senses and looked at Tang Yin blankly.

Tang Yin asked again, "If I said it's from the start of the battle until now, would it be six hours?"

Qiu Zhen heard it clearly, and after calculating for a bit, he replied, "Reporting to your majesty, it will take at most two hours!"

"Alright!" Tang Yin extended three of his fingers, and laughed at the surrounding generals: "I already said, within six hours, break through the Wohu Pass, it's time to fulfill my promise." As he said that, he took out his sword and waved it towards the front, shouting: "My soldiers listen to my orders, entire army attack! Attack Wohu Pass, annihilate all of these bandits, even if they die! "Kill ?"

"Kill!"

With Tang Yin's order, the entire army moved in unison. Their cheers shook the skies as the Chiliarch's ten thousand horses advanced at full speed. Being able to maintain the formation of the legion was already not bad. With nearly two hundred thousand Feng Army s, they would be able to launch a charge like a flood of ferocious beasts. With their high morale, they would be able to swallow the world.

Right now, the city walls were collapsing. Seeing the Feng Army s outside the city charging towards them like an avalanche, the entire Ning Army was scared out of their wits, their stomachs and stomachs twisting.

On the surface, it looked like the Drop Stone had smashed down the walls of Wohu Pass, but in reality, it had destroyed Ning Jun's psychological defenses, causing the tens of thousands of soldiers to immediately fall into a state of mental breakdown.

But right at this time, a landslide also occurred on the other side of the cliff. Three incomparably huge boulders rolled down one after another, not only did they not only did they smash down the city wall for more than ten meters, even the barracks and Army Tent were implicated in a large area, and many of the wounded soldiers who stayed in the living quarters died in a state of confusion.
