Tang Yin was tricked by Qing Yu and his destroyed his Wind Camp. The battle was over, and the wind camp changed owners. But in this large-scale battle, the number of casualties in Feng Army was only a few thousand, but the number of captured soldiers exceeded a hundred thousand, and the remaining Feng Army were scattered. Amongst them, there were less than fifty thousand who escaped with Tang Yin.
The Rejecting Wooden-Horse that Tang Yin had set up previously had played a role, the dense variety of Rejecting Wooden-Horse made it difficult for Mo Cavalry to chase after them, and this became one of the most important factors in this battle.
Ever since Tang Yin joined the army, he had never suffered such a miserable defeat. His internal injuries had not yet healed, and his external injuries were heavy as well. This time, Qing Yu had played a fool on him and caused him to suffer such a miserable defeat. His internal injuries had been worsened, and even when he was inside the carriage, he couldn't stop coughing.
On their way to flee north, Zuo Shuang and Wu Ying came over to report to Tang Yin, and wanted to lead their troops to withdraw their Ba Pass.
After Tang Yin heard this, his eyebrows immediately wrinkled. He slammed the car's wall heavily, and stuttered: "Withdraw Ba Pass? Cough cough ? It took me several months, and I've lost countless numbers of soldiers. Do you want me to leave empty-handed ? "Cough, cough ?"
Seeing that Tang Yin's face was flushed and she was coughing non-stop, Wu Ying quickly stepped forward and gently patted his back.
Zuo Shuang sighed, and said softly: "Qing Yu is a schemer, he observed our troops' every move. In this battle, he has calculated that the King cannot afford to be humiliated in female attire, so he will definitely make the entire army defend the camp within three days. After three days, our army will be exhausted, and if he takes the opportunity to attack again, he will truly be crafty ? "
Before he even finished speaking, Tang Yin had already flipped the medicine bowl over in front of him. He shouted angrily, "I know how I lost, there's no need for you to analyze any further ? "Cough, cough, cough ?" This cough of his could not be stopped. His pale face turned red and purple.
Wu Ying and Su Yelei, who was accompanying him, slapped her back as they poured water into a bowl. After working for a while, they finally managed to stop Tang Yin's coughing.
Tang Yin wiped the water stain on the corner of his mouth, swallowed his saliva, and said while gasping for breath: "Back to the Provincial Capital.
Zuo Shuang looked troubled, and said: "Great King, our army has less than fifty thousand soldiers, but our Mo Army is not even four hundred thousand. Even if our troops retreat to defend our Suyue, I am afraid ? "I'm afraid even I can't withstand it ?"
Tang Yin laughed, looked up at the sky and laughed bitterly, then said faintly: At worst, I'll just lose again! Now that the battle has reached such a stage, there is no way for us to lose, so what if we lose a few more rounds? "
Right now, not to mention all the morale of the defeated soldiers in Feng Army, even Tang Yin had a broken heart and no longer had any desire to win. Of course, Feng Army currently did not have any strength to turn the tide of the battle.
"Your Majesty ?" Zuo Shuang grieved in his heart, and said with a trembling voice, "But Your Majesty's injuries are severe, and I should return to my country to recuperate. "Afraid ?" He could not finish his sentence.
Tang Yin was very clear about his own body's condition, he did not want to fight, he also wanted to return to his Ba Pass to live a peaceful and comfortable life.
He said powerlessly, "We can withdraw, but once we leave, Dongjiang County will return to the hands of Mo Country. How are we supposed to evacuate the two armies, Tiger Might and Plains that are fighting deep within the Mo Realm? The rear road has been cut off, and there are strong enemies in the front and back. How can the two armies deal with this? "
Zuo Shuang muttered to himself for a moment, steeled his heart, and said: "I ask Your Majesty to order for Pingyuan Army to be transferred back! We are truly powerless to fight against the four hundred thousand strong Mo Army, so we can only go back to the Plains and Tiger Might to assist you! "
Even if he transferred his Pingyuan Army back, would that be enough to turn the situation around? Of course the answer was no, Tang Yin was clear as day.
When he transferred back to the second army, their side would be at the same place, but their Mo Army would also be at the same place, and at that time, their side would be at most at the same place, at the level of two hundred thousand, and even if their Mo Army increased by six to seven hundred thousand, their strength would still not be on the same level. In fact, their side might even be in a more passive situation, and as a result, they would be completely driven back to their own country.
Tang Yin powerlessly laid down, his eyes stared blankly at the carts shed, and let out a long sigh. After a long while, he raised his hand, and muttered: "Go ? Pass the order! Inform Xiao Muqing and Nan Ye to withdraw ? "
"Yes!" "Great King!" These words made Zuo Shuang feel as if a heavy burden had been lifted off of his shoulders. He quickly replied and left the carriage. Looking at it now, withdrawing Pingyuan Army and Huwei Army, and decisively giving up the outcome of their side's battle, was the best choice.
Suyue City, Dongjiang s, Mo Country s north of the important city. Because of the relationship between the Dongjiang and the Dongjiang, the Provincial Capital s were abnormally flourishing, the population in the city was large, and there were countless wealthy families.
Tang Yin and the Feng Army left the place and settled down. Soon after, the entire city was under martial law and they quickly consolidated the city's defenses, preparing to engage in another defensive battle with the Provincial Capital.
Living in the County Head Palace, Tang Yin could not be at peace, so all sorts of reports were sent to him.
Even though he was injured, even though he was severely injured, Tang Yin was still a sovereign. He still had to take care of government affairs.
Zuo Shuang did not permit it, but with the battle at hand, his Suyue was in imminent danger, hence if he called over Qiu Zhen and the other ministers, it would cause a huge loss to his Feng Country.
This afternoon, Ling Shuang came to visit Tang Yin, and even brought a few snacks that were unique to Yu Country. Arriving at Tang Yin's room, only after the servants found out that he was not in, did they find out that he was actually discussing military affairs with the generals in the front courtyard.
In these past few days, she had seen Tang Yin everyday and she knew how serious his injuries were. But even if he was seriously injured and still needed to go to work and didn't get any rest, it still wasn't easy for Tang Yin to be her sovereign.
She took her personal maid back to the lobby.
Inside the hall, Tang Yin was sitting at a table with all his might, the things placed in front of him were all reports on the Feng Zhanzheng Mo Country. Tang Yin casually picked up a book and unfurled it, he lowered his head and looked, and then closed it, and picked up another book to read, and then quickly closed it.
He opened it five or six times in a row, and his expression became more and more unsightly. Finally, he slammed the table with his palm, and the deafening sound scared the generals below and made them tremble.1
Everyone stood with their heads bowed, not daring to even breathe. Tang Yin looked at the crowd, and then flipped the report on the table angrily.
Seeing that blood was seeping out from the bandages underneath his clothes, Su Yelei walked forward and said softly, "Great King, be careful of your own injuries ?"
Tang Yin raised his arm to block her hand and said solemnly: "I'm fine, don't worry about me!"
Su Yelei had no choice but to retreat. At this time, Ling Shuang who was peeping from outside walked in, laughing and asking: Why are you so angry, brother Feng King? While talking, she walked to Tang Yin's side and slowly sat down.
When Tang Yin was enraged, no one dared to get close to him, but Ling Shuang was not afraid. She was the same as Tang Yin, being the ruler of a nation, and also Tang Yin's wife in terms of reputation, she was naturally not afraid that Tang Yin would dare to do anything to her.
Glancing at the uninvited Ling Shuang, Tang Yin ignored her and shut his mouth tightly, not saying a word.
Ling Shuang blinked her eyes. She did not feel awkward, so she casually picked up a report and opened it. If she picked up other reports, they were basically all the same. If it was not the county chief or Mayor s who were ambushed, or the soldiers being ambushed while patrolling, the number of casualties could be in the tens or hundreds, or at least a few.
This was to say that they were all Wind People. If they were not ambushed, they would be ambushed. Furthermore, there were many places where they were ambushed, which was truly a headache.
Seeing that Ling Shuang did not speak after reading a few reports, Tang Yin laughed bitterly and said: "As the saying goes, a wall is pushed by a crowd! When my Feng Army was strong, not a single citizen of Mo Country dared to stand up and cause trouble. Now that my army has lost momentum, we were forced to retreat little by little, and even the citizens of Mo Country dare to stand up and stir up trouble. "How dare you, you are going too far!" The more he spoke, the angrier he became. He couldn't help but cough again.
Ling Shuang lightly patted Tang Yin's tightly clenched fists, and said gently: "Royal Brother is just a few troublesome people, what need is there to be so angry?"
In truth, Tang Yin was angry at himself. In the end, he was still unconvinced in his heart, unconvinced that he would continuously be defeated by Qing Yu.
He looked straight at Ling Shuang, and asked sternly: "Do you believe that if I am not injured, then in that battle, Mo Army would not be able to break through our army's main camp?"
Ling Shuang almost broke out in laughter. She was actually still brooding over this matter and pushed all the blame to the matter of him getting hurt. She was simply like a child who was unwilling to accept this lost game.
She nodded again and again, and for the first time she said willingly, "Of course! If Royal Brother was not injured, with his intelligence, he would not have been fooled by Qing Yu. With Royal Brother's martial power, he would not have let Mo Army break out of the camp so easily. "
After hearing these words, Tang Yin's breathing calmed down a little. Ling Shuang continued: "However, Royal Brother being injured is a fact. If you want to take revenge, you should quickly recuperate your injuries." As she spoke, she raised her hand and called out, "Medical Officer Su, attend to your highness returning to your room to apply the medicine."
"Yes sir!" Su Yelei replied. She first looked at Ling Shuang, then nodded towards the servants around him.
The servants quickly came forward, and helped Tang Yin to lie down on the soft bed, and whispered cautiously: "I'll send you back to your Majesty's room."
Tang Yin looked around, and finally sighed, lying on the soft bed tiredly, letting the servants carry him back to his room.
After Tang Yin left, the rest of the generals all heaved a sigh of relief. The meeting had lasted from morning till now, and did not stop until now.
The people were extremely grateful to Ling Shuang for persuading him to leave, and when she walked out, everyone interfered and bowed, and said in unison: "This general will respectfully escort King Yu out!"
Usually, they were very courteous to Ling Shuang, but that was just on the surface. In their hearts, they did not put Ling Shuang in their eyes, and even when they bowed, they still looked at other places, revealing their contempt, and now, they were actually extremely respectful to him.
