From the first hundred thousand people, they became eighty thousand, then from eighty thousand to sixty thousand, and when it was noon, the number of people in the Mo Army reached less than fifty thousand.
Until now, even Mo Army Master Zhang Yan did not think of any method to restrain Heavy Cavalry.
It was useless to fumble around on the battlefield. If he hadn't done detailed and systematic research on Heavy Cavalry in advance, just relying on the random adaptability on the battlefield to think of a solution, that would have been impossible.
Seeing that their entire army was about to be annihilated, and not a single one of the hundred thousand soldiers could escape, Zhang Yan clenched his teeth and steeled his heart, and gave the order. He raised the white flag, and surrendered to Feng Army.
As the general of an army, surrendering was naturally a great humiliation, but he couldn't use the lives of tens of thousands of his men as a wager just for his own honor and disgrace. He had already lost this battle. If this continued, there would only be more casualties.
Now that Qi Heng was in high spirits, he suddenly saw Mo Army brandishing a white flag, and gave up resisting, even if he was unwilling, he could only give the order to halt the attack and accept Mo Country's downfall.
After the battle, both Feng Mo's armies suffered heavy casualties, and the deaths and injuries at the Feng Army side were mostly concentrated on the Directly Subordinate Army, close to a crowd of 20,000. Although the outcome of the battle was a complete victory for Feng Army, Hu Xia was not happy.
If the Ninth Army did not participate in the battle, and only relied on the fifty thousand Directly Subordinate Army that he led to, this definitely would not have been the result. It was likely that all the soldiers in the army, including himself, would have died under the hands of the Mo Army.
Before the battle, Hu Xia was still full of himself, full of pride and arrogance, but after the battle, his confidence was severely damaged, and he realised that although his Spirit Force was strong, his ability to lead troops was still lacking!
It was true that the Ninth Army had contributed greatly to the victory of Feng Army, but the one who had contributed the most was still the previous batch of Feng Army that had infiltrated the Mo Army camp. This batch of Feng Army played a crucial role at the critical moment, resulting in the hundred thousand people who tried to fight back to be locked outside of the camp, unable to retreat, unable to flee, and ultimately unable to escape. Even Tang Yin, who was slightly dissatisfied with Xiao Muqing, had no choice but to admire his foresight after hearing the battle report. Burying such a Elite Armament in the midst of his Mo Army was simply too surprising.
In terms of rewards, the first thing Tang Yin rewarded was this set of Feng Army who were disguised as Mo Army. He rewarded the commander with a thousand gold and bestowed the title of Viscount.
Only Hu Xia was depressed and unhappy, feeling that he had truly failed to bestow the King with any rewards. After all, not only had he failed in this battle, but he had also committed crimes, and it was because of his misdirection that caused the death of fifty thousand Directly Subordinate Army warriors.
Of course, Tang Yin could also see his uneasiness, but he did not say much. No one was born to fight, no matter how outstanding a general was, they had to rely on their combat experience to train themselves little by little.
After the rewards were given out, Tang Yin ordered for the main general of Mo Army, Zhang Yan, to be brought up. Looking at this battle, there was nothing suitable about Zhang Yan's command, it was just that his luck was not good, and met with the Ninth Army, and was betrayed by their own side who had inserted themselves into the Mo Camp.
If possible, Tang Yin also wished to recruit such a talent for his own use.
Seeing Zhang Yan being tied up and pushed into the Central Army Tent, Tang Yin purposely revealed a look of displeasure on his face. Frowning, he pointed to the guards on his left and right, and bellowed: General Zhang is considered my esteemed guest, quickly release the bindings on General Zhang!
"No need!" Zhang Yan was an experienced person, the moment Tang Yin opened his mouth, he could guess what he was planning to do. He stood below, raised his head, straightened his waist, and said with a trembling voice: "I am surrendering to Feng Army, not because I am afraid of death, but because I cannot bear to watch my subordinates throw away their lives for nothing. If Feng King is truly a hero, then I will be satisfied. I will also remember Feng King's great kindness! "
Ouch! What a tough guy! Although Zhang Yan could not be considered a famous general in the Mo Country, he was still a very capable person. His loyalty to the Mo Country was truly admirable.
Without waiting for Tang Yin to speak, Qi Heng started laughing. He stepped forward and stood in front of Zhang Yan, and said with a smile: "General Zhang, the common saying is correct. Shao Fang was unconscious, cruel and merciless. All those who followed him would not have a good ending in the end. I think that with the power of General Zhang, he should not be any weaker than me. Now that the opportunity is right in front of us, General Zhang must not miss it, why not emulate me, and serve our King together? "
Zhang Yan had never seen Qi Heng, and when he heard Qi Heng call himself Qi Ling and that he was from Mo Country, he had already guessed Qi Heng's identity. After hearing his words, Zhang Yan laughed out loud, and only after laughing for a long while did he stop laughing, and spat at Qi Heng while sneering: "You are a man that is seeking honor, and a traitor, and dares to boast so shamelessly in front of me, a general! Do you think you're worthy?! Even if I were to be torn into pieces and thrown into a frying pan, I would still be ashamed to be with you and the other villains! "
His scolding did not hold back at all, and it caused Qi Heng's face to turn red and white. The surrounding General of Feng Country s who were born with Feng Country were all laughing in their hearts, and at the same time, they were praising Zhang Yan for scolding to his heart's content.
Qi Heng was not someone from the Feng Clan, but how could he not be hated by others when he was in charge of the Ninth Regiment, which had the strongest fighting strength? Especially those General of Feng Country, who were born with Feng Country, who wished for Qi Heng to fall early.
He lowered his head to look at the spittle on his chest armor. His eyebrows were raised, and his eyes were bloodshot. Even the people of Feng Country did not dare to humiliate him like this, how could he endure when a lowly general like Zhang Yan dared to treat him like this?
Without any warning, he waved his hand and pulled out the sword at his waist, aiming for Zhang Yan's throat. With a ferocious expression, he said while gnashing his teeth, "I'll give you face! Do you believe that I will chop you up right now?! "
Zhang Yan simply closed his eyes, as though he was at peace with death, just at this time, Tang Yin muttered under his breath.
Qi Heng's body shook, he anxiously put down his sword, turned around and cupped his hands towards Tang Yin: "Great King, this thief shaming this general, is like shaming my great king. He is extremely detestable, and it isn't a sin to die, I hope Great King will give the order to immediately kill this thief!"
Tang Yin only loved Zhang Yan a little, and had not reached the point where he had to. Seeing Zhang Yan's resolute attitude, decided to give up. He asked for the last time: "General Zhang, are you really adamant on not giving up on me?"
"That's right!" [I am a man, but even if I die, I will be a ghost!] With my death, I have come to repay my king's kindness. I have no regrets in dying, I hope that Feng King can grant my wish. " Zhang Yan said in a clear voice, his eyes still closed.
"Your Majesty, this thief is obstinate and cannot be left alive." Qi Heng hated Zhang Yan, so he kept adding oil to the fire.
Tang Yin nodded, and said helplessly: "Since General Zhang is so loyal to Mo Country, I will not force anyone any further." With that, he turned his gaze towards Qi Heng and leisurely said: "Qi Heng, I'll leave General Zhang in your hands. After all, both of you are not human, so whether you keep General Zhang here or not is up to you."
On the surface, his words seemed magnanimous, but in reality, it was equivalent to sentencing Zhang Yan to death. Qi Heng had always been a petty person. Earlier, Zhang Yan had insulted him in front of everyone, so how could he let Zhang Yan live? If the latter could die happily in his hands, then it would be considered a good ending.1
Indeed. After hearing what Tang Yin had to say, Qi Heng was overjoyed. He first turned his head and glanced at Zhang Yan with a sinister smile, and then cupped his hands and bowed to Tang Yin: "This general thanks your majesty!"
The fourth camp, which was heavily defended by the Mo Army, was eventually taken over by the Feng Army, which included the main commander Zhang Yan. A huge army of a hundred thousand was completely annihilated, which was a huge blow to the Mo Army within the Panling.
However, through this battle, Tang Yin could see that the Mo Army camp inside the Panling was not that easy to fight. This time, because they had the help of their own forces, they easily won, but the Enemy's Camp behind it did not have their own forces as well.
He gathered all the generals, asking them if there was any other way to bypass the Panling. Xiao Muqing and Zuo Shuang shook their heads: "Within the Zeping County, if you want to pass through the Panling, there is only one way, if you want to go around it, you have to go through either the Sishui or Tian Yang County, and these two counties are controlled by the Mo Army, if you want to go through these two counties, you have to start over from the beginning, so the plan previously formulated by the Military-political Hall will all become invalid."
After Tang Yin heard this, his heart turned cold. It seemed that it was already impossible for him to choose to bypass Panling.
He muttered thoughtfully: "Since we can't get around it, we must fight them head-on. But is there any way to prevent our army from paying any heavy losses and then we can eliminate the Mo Army from the Panling?"
"There's only one way!" Xiao Muqing took the lead: "The King has ordered the Battle-tested Army to be withdrawn and attack. At that time, our forces will attack the Panling from both sides, making it hard to look into, and we will easily win!"
Tang Yin's eyes lit up, this was a good idea! But then he thought again, frowned, and said: "With Panling as a barrier, how can my orders reach the Battle-tested Army?"
Just as he finished speaking, Ai Jia stepped forward bravely and said confidently: "Rest assured King, I will handle this matter."
"You can do it?" Tang Yin frowned in disbelief.
Ai Jia laughed, and said: "Your majesty, do you still remember that batch of subordinates that you have just recruited? They are good at climbing mountains and crossing mountains. They do not take the official road, avoid Mo Army camps, and pass through Panling between the mountain ranges and mountain ranges. To them, it is not difficult at all. "
