Chapter 261: Han's
The Iron Scale Spirit Eagle spread out its iron-cast scale wings, which were thirteen or fourteen meters long, and Chen Hai stepped on it, as if he was standing firmly on a small mountain. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The Iron Scale Spirit Eagle flapped its wings and flew, and flew to three or four thousand zhang in the blink of an eye, which was the normal altitude of the Iron Scale Spirit Eagle in the air, and this height also happened to be out of the influence of the killing army, but at this height, the cold wind that scraped the bones like a knife made Chen Hai need to destroy the true yuan, and condense the Vajra Fu Seal Armor to protect his body, so that he could shoot arrows with a bow or cast other magic powers without distraction.
Chen Hai just held the Xuanti Iron Bow in his hand, and did not rush to shoot the fleeing enemy, but focused on the battlefield below, and at the same time made sure that none of the thieves could escape on the Imperial Spirit Bird.
At present, the thieves who can break out of the encirclement and flee to the periphery of Black Mountain are not important roles, and those important thieves in the middle and late stages of the Spirit Clearing Realm and even the Ming Realm are all stared at and entangled by Deng Tong'er, Fan Dachun, and Han Qingyuan, waiting for their true yuan mana and the talisman seals they carry with them to be captured or killed.
And Han Qingyuan and other horse thief leaders who surrendered in battle, in order to make this surrender letter, fought even harder.
The main reason is that many small and medium-sized tribes who were oppressed by horse thieves during this period of time have let go of their courage, so that Chen Hai can gather nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses in such a short period of time to surround the Black Mountain Cottage.
And when the Guhou mountain horse thieves fled into the Black Mountain Village, although there were nearly 5,000 people, but the retreat into the Black Mountain Village was already exhausted, and in the past ten days, thousands of people broke the wall and surrendered, and thousands of people were killed and injured under the continuous bombardment of the catapults, leaving less than 3,000 people, plus the family members of the horse thief leader, the morale has completely collapsed, and most of the people have lost the will to resist, and they are soon surrounded by the absolute superiority in numbers, morale, etc.
At this time, even if a small number of horse thief leaders relied on their superb cultivation and personal combat strength to break out of the Black Mountain Village and wanted to break through, what greeted them on the periphery was a net laid by fifteen or six thousand soldiers and horses, and in the end, only a very limited number of horse thief leaders were able to escape......
As the battle drew to a close, the corpses in the Black Mountain Village were strewn all over the field, and in the end, about 1,200 or 300 horse thieves were killed and died, and then surrendered their armor. This is mainly because Han Qingyuan, the horse thieves who surrendered in battle, were eager to perform, wanted to hand over a perfect surrender, and were extremely ruthless and cruel to the so-called colleagues, and even ruthlessly killed two or three hundred of the families of the horse thieves trapped in the Black Mountain Village, otherwise they could harvest more prisoners of war.
Of the five leaders of the Enlightenment Realm horse thieves and the leaders of more than forty Soul Clearing Realm horse thieves, three-fifths of them finally chose to surrender because they saw no way to escape;
In such a fierce battle, the lethality of cultivating as a martial and Xuan cultivation above the Soul Clearing Realm is still considerable. The elite soldiers of the elite army are surrounded and forced up, and there will be no room for a shot.
Either the elite main force of the elite army will give up resistance when they enter the walled city, or in the course of the fierce battle, which horse thief leader says that he wants to surrender, it is more secure for the elite army generals to directly surround and kill.
Chen Hai hoped that someone would spread the news back to Yequ Mountain or Songyang Lake, or spread it to Xiqiang, and saw that thirty or fifty people had broken through and fled, and did not let Fan Dachun arrange for the exhausted cavalry to pursue him.
Seeing that the war in the Black Mountain Walled City had completely subsided, Chen Haicai walked into the Black Mountain Cottage where there were only ruins left, surrounded by everyone.
"Han Qingyuan doesn't know the true face of the envoy, and he has offended many things in the past, so he asked the envoy to surrender!" Han Qingyuan and the other leaders and leaders of the horse thieves who surrendered when they had besieged the village for about 15 days, all knelt in front of the dilapidated stone street to welcome Chen Hai into the village.
Han Qingyuan and Han Wendang were from the same Han clan, and they were originally the clan lords of the Pinglu Oasis, after the retreat of Ma Dong, the status of the Han clan was higher than that of the Deng clan, and it was slightly weaker than the Ye clan of the Xiqiang royal clan at this time.
When recovering the Pinglu Oasis and rebuilding the Xiqiang Kingdom, the Han clan once threatened the rule of the Ye royal family, but because the Han clan master at that time, Han Sheng, who was also one of the powerhouses of the Four Great Dao Dan Realm of the Pinglu Oasis, died of serious illness, and the Han family had no successor, and could not keep the status of the Xiqiang Kingdom, and was also suspicious of the Ye royal family.
In the next two or three years, the Han clan was convicted of serious crimes, the clan was dissolved, and more than 1,000 members of the Yan tribe were sentenced to exile and exiled to the depths of the desert more than 2,000 miles further north than the Black Mountain Village.
The living conditions in the Land of Exile are too bad, there is a spring in the barren mountains, and the flow is interrupted from time to time, and it is impossible to feed thousands of people. In the end, more than 1,000 Han clansmen, under the leadership of Han Qingyuan and others, simply became horse thieves, plundering the trade road and nearby tribes - although Han Wendang was also a member of the Han clan, he left the clan early and wandered the desert alone, and finally joined the gang in Yequ Mountain and became the third master.
Han Wendang's past is rarely known in the depths of the desert, which is also the key to successfully persuading Han Qingyuan to surrender.
In addition to Han Qingyuan and Han Wendang, the Han clan also has a strong man in the Ming Realm Han Jian, who led more than 300 elite disciples, who were participating in the Montenegrin Army led by the Black Mountain Martial Venerable Kong Peng at this time.
On the day he decided to surrender, Han Qingyuan wrote a secret letter, which was carried by several descendants and rushed to Songyang Lake to find Han Jian, persuading him to lead 300 elite children to leave the Black Mountain Army and join the Elite Army in time.
Since the Han family, as a horse thief, is also based on the children of the clan, the number of family members is not small. At that time, there were 400 people who moved to Guhushan with Han Qingyuan.
Han Qingyuan led his troops to open a section of the city wall and rushed out to surrender, but there were only less than 100 young children in the family, and under the pretext of assisting in the defense of the city wall, they successfully escaped with Han Qingyuan, but nearly 300 people remained in the village and were persecuted.
At this time, less than 100 members of the Han family were rescued from the humble cells of the Black Mountain Village, and the others died under the fierce scuffle and the cruel revenge of the thieves.
In the depths of the vast desert, many horse thieves are small and medium-sized sect lords who have been defeated in power struggles, such as the Deng clan, the Han clan, and the Black Mountain Wuzun Kong Peng, who are more powerful and more cohesive than ordinary horse thieves.
Chen Hai walked over and helped Han Qingyuan up.
In the previous siege battle, with Han Qingyuan and other soldiers as the precursor, they also proved that they had completely broken off the relationship with the Black Mountain Kou army, and Chen Hai was in urgent need of manpower at this time, so he naturally would not snub Han Qingyuan.
"Zhou Da and the other thieves and chieftains have all been arrested, how should the envoys deal with them?" asked Han Qingyuan and the others.
In this battle, the first nineteen thieves who cultivated above the Spirit Clearing Realm were captured, and there were two strong people in the Enlightenment Realm.
"Abolish cultivation and be relegated to a baggage camp as a slave!" Chen Hai said with a tense face and ruthlessly.
It is very easy to abolish these prisoners of war, and forcibly feed them into the Reverse Spirit Scatter, so that their own True Yuan reverses the Xuan Pulse Spiritual Technique, and does not give them the opportunity to heal the Pulse Essence Injuries for a period of time, so that they will completely shrink, and even make their muscles, bones, flesh and blood completely weakened, and these people usually have no chance to resume their cultivation.
At this time, Chen Hai asked people to throw the letter of surrender into the stockade, and none of these people chose to surrender; at this time, it was quite polite to spare their lives, but there would be no more politeness.
Han Qingyuan was also secretly frightened, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, they considered the hundreds of families in the stockade at that time, so they wanted to delay until the moment when the walled city was breached and then chose to surrender, but they didn't expect the envoy to be so ruthless.
"Then I'll leave them all to me. Ning Chan'er said.
She wants to delve into the medicinal properties of the Reverse Spirit Scatter, and these people are undoubtedly the best test subjects.
Although Han Cainiang is also a good test subject, she wants to ensure that Han Cainiang can gradually recover her cultivation, and she can't just take it around and try some fierce drugs that she is completely unsure of.
Chen Hai nodded, these people will only be tortured if they fall into the hands of Ning Chan'er, a demon girl, and this may be their greatest value - if Ning Chan'er can completely control them, and then restore their cultivation, it will be a strong guard combat force.
Deng Tong'er also had to rush back to Moyue Lake to preside over the construction and defense of the Exquisite City.
Considering that the situation in the Xiqiang Kingdom would change badly at any time, Chen Hai asked Deng Tong'er and Guo Hong to take away 2,000 more soldiers and horses to strengthen the defense of Jingjue City, and the other about 16,000 soldiers and horses were temporarily set up outside the city by Fan Dachun.
The city of Montenegro was in a mess, the walls of the city were destroyed in several sections, and at this time the repairs were only barely filled with bricks and stones, and the degree of solidity was far from being compared with the beginning, and the houses in the city needed to be rebuilt, let alone completed in two or three months.
"If Han Jian leads his troops back, the Han clan can be the lord of Montenegro!" Chen Hai said calmly to Han Qingyuan and Han Wendang. If Han Jianzhen can lead three hundred Han clan's disciples out of the Black Mountain Kou Army in time, or simply be slaughtered by the Black Mountain Martial Venerable Kong Peng, the Han family can be trusted, and Chen Hai will directly entrust Black Mountain City to the Han clan to govern; otherwise, if the Han clan still has a variety of options, Chen Hai will use Han Qingyuan and others, but he will not entrust him with power.
"Please allow me to go to Songyang Lake to welcome the return of the Han family. Han Qingyuan said.
"Okay!" Chen Hai nodded, summoned the Iron Scale Eagle over and handed it to Han Qingyuan to take the royal time, so that he could rush to Songyang Lake before the other fleeing bandits, and even rush to Songyang Lake before the Han clan people who sent the secret message, and contact Han Jian and other Han clan disciples.
When Han Qingyuan attacked the village just now, the killing was not light, and the news would spread out in a few days later, and Chen Hai was not afraid that he would dare to go to Kong Peng again; not to mention that Han Qingyuan's wife and children and in addition to Han Wendang, there were nearly 1,000 Han clan members and families left in the Black Mountain Village.
