Chapter 44: A Great Victory

Keng ...... Jia Lin shot down five arrows in a row, but her arm was already so shocked that she couldn't lift it, which shows that the martial arts cultivation of the archers is at least comparable to Jia Lin.

Seeing that she couldn't resist the remaining arrows, Jia Lin let out a clear roar, her body retreated sharply, and she blocked directly in front of Yun Qing, and she actually insisted on using her own body as a shield to block the remaining arrows for Yun Qing.

"You're stupid." Yun Qing hurriedly took two steps forward, stretched out his hand to push Jia Lin aside, and at the same time, the Dark Dragon Demon Bow in his hand was raised, as if he was strolling in a leisurely garden, and immediately flicked it twice.

The first two arrows immediately changed direction and landed on the ground on Yun Qing's right hand.

And the last arrow was seen in front of Yun Qing's eyes.

Jia Lin looked at the arrow that was about to shoot through Yun Qing's head, and let out a terrible cry: "Don't ......"

But then, she saw Yun Qing's body slightly on one side, and her head was tilted to dodge the arrow.

When Yun Qing turned his head over, his teeth were firmly grasping the arrow.

Without waiting for Jia Lin to react, he saw Yun Qing casually pull out the two arrows that were shot on the ground, shooting out like thunder.

As the two arrows were fired, two screams were heard in the distance.

Two bow-wielding generals fell to the sky. It was they who were attacked by the archery just now.

Immediately afterwards, Yun Qing took the arrow that he had bitten: "The strength is really great, it almost brought my teeth down." ”

Another arrow was fired, and the target that Yun Qing aimed at this sortie, the military flag of the Yunshan Army in the distance was finally shot down by him.

"Tell me, the soldiers of the Yunshan Army, your leader is dead. Believe it and look at it, your banners are down. Yun Qing took a deep breath and let out a loud shout.

With Yun Qing's words spreading throughout the three armies, all the soldiers of the Yunshan Army looked at the place where the military flag was.

There, sure enough, there was no military flag, and all the soldiers were in chaos.

"Damn it. Hang the flag quickly, hang it for me. Damn, the herald, don't retreat, Lao Tzu is not dead. Zuo Peisheng was furious when he saw this, and scolded again and again.

But his orders were not well delivered. Especially the part of the soldiers who came after the big man in front and behind the battlefield could not be conveyed at all.

On the contrary, when the coalition soldiers saw the enemy's flag falling, they were in high spirits one by one, and they screamed at the enemy like a pack of hungry wolves.

Under the elimination of the other's strengths, the Yunshan Army's numerical advantage was gone.

"Lord Viscount, let's retreat quickly." Jia Lin stood up and said hurriedly.

"Next time, don't use yourself as a meat shield." Yun Qing nodded, and then said, "This is an order." ”

"Yes, Lord Viscount." Jia Lin agreed, but Yun Qing looked at her like that, and it was estimated that this was in vain, if she really felt that it was necessary, she would still stand in front of her. She is a loyal and competent shield guard, and she really protects Yunqing's safety with her own life.

The two fought and retreated, but fortunately, now the soldiers of the Yunshan Army no longer had the heart to intercept the two.

Once the defeat is successful, it will be irretrievable.

At this moment, there will be no will to fight, no fighting spirit, but how can they win?

Even the big man had already led his men to chase after the group of Yunshan Army infantry in turn......

In the camp tent, Yue Qingrou was amazed by Yun Qing's attack: "You have made a great contribution this time." If you hadn't shot down the opponent's flag in time, I'm afraid we would have been in a bitter battle. In the case of an enemy on the back of the abdomen, it may be us who loses. ”

"Lord Duke, Lord Viscount, he is really unwise to attack this time. It's a fluke that nothing happens this time, and if something happens to him, then even if we win, we will lose. Jia Lin was very dissatisfied, Yun Qing's attack this time was too dangerous.

Yue Qingrou shook her head and said, "Jia Lin, I know that you, as a shield guard, are responsible for his safety." Although for the sake of generals, they should not put themselves in danger. But if he doesn't strike in time this time, the probability of our defeat is very high. Sometimes, as a general, even if it is dangerous, you have to go where the overall situation requires. ”

Jia Lin was speechless, just sullen and didn't speak.

Yun Qing glanced at Ke'er, Ke'er immediately understood, and then pulled Jia Lin out on the pretext of asking her to help prepare food for the celebration banquet, and tried to comfort her by the way.

"This victory has taken the friendship between our soldiers one step further. With the exception of the Moon Immortal Guard, the rest of our soldiers were already able to talk freely with the soldiers of the Imperial Alliance. Wanrong laughed: "Even these two guys, who are usually like cockfights, have been drinking together." ”

Wanrong was naturally pointing to Chen Xun and Han Zhen, who basically didn't quarrel for a day. Now the two of them were holding their arms and drinking wildly in front of a jar of wine, and a group of soldiers from the Night Moon Kingdom and the Empire were cheering and cheering around.

Originally, the soldiers of the two countries were not very harmonious, and the two sides rarely talked to each other. This has now changed. And that's a good thing.

It has a very good impact on future battles.

"Uncle Hong, I heard that you caught a big fish when you were cleaning the battlefield? Bring him up and see. Yun Qing suddenly remembered something.

"Isn't it? Someone, bring that boy to me. As soon as he heard Yun Qing mention this, Hong Xiao laughed: "That Xu Shan was actually pressed under the body of several soldiers and fainted. But this kid was really unlucky, and a pair of legs were crushed by two horses. ”

It didn't take long for two soldiers to carry a stretcher into the tent: "Lord Duke, Lord Viscount, it's him." ”

"Xu Shan. General Xu, meet again. Yun Qing said with a smile.

Xu Shantie's face was blue, he turned his head to look to the side, and didn't pay attention to Yunqing at all.

"General Xu. Are you convinced that you lost today? Yun Qing ignored him and said straightforwardly: "When you lead the army to raid our territory, you should think that there will be a possibility of defeat. You are here today, but you are to blame. ”

"Hmph, Lao Tzu is not convinced. If it weren't for those little tricks you played. How could I possibly lose? Xu Shan shouted angrily: "Yunqing, you coward, a coward who can only play small tricks." ”

Yun Qing didn't get angry when he heard this, but laughed: "General Xu, you have led the troops for many years, you should have heard a saying, it is called soldiers are not tired of cheating." No matter what small tricks I play, on the battlefield, winning is the goal. As for you calling me a coward, I'm really sorry, I don't have the face to accept this title. On the contrary, General Xu, the purpose of coming with an army of 80,000 is to plunder the common people and the people of the empire. It's better for you to receive this cowardly name. ”

"You...... Yunqing, did you bring me here just to humiliate me? Xu Shan's face was blue and white.

Yue Qingrou drank tea very comfortably on the side, as if the things in front of her were not happening in front of her eyes at all.

"Humiliating you? Do you have the right to humiliate me? Yun Qing stabbed Xu Shan again in the heart without hesitation: "From the beginning, you were not taken into our eyes. All we care about is the fast Zuo Peisheng. As for you, you're just a big stupid guy with the title of general. ”

Xu Shan felt that he was sincerely wronged. Why did Lao Tzu become a stupid big man? Anyway, Lao Tzu has been leading troops for more than 20 years, and he has seen more battles than you?

It's just that he really doesn't have the face to say this, who let himself now be the future of the defeated army.

"General Xu, of course I didn't bring you here to humiliate you." Yun Qing laughed: "I was here to let you go." ”

"Let me go?" Xu Shan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Yun Qing to let him go.

"Of course. With the temper of the old thief of Yunshan Gong, he will definitely not pay the ransom for you captives. Yun Qing shrugged: "But this time I captured more than 20,000 prisoners, and the cost of eating and drinking every day is very fatal." How can I have so much food for you? Of course I'll have to let you go. ”

"Are you serious?" Xu Shan was very excited when he heard this, he originally thought that he would be killed, but he didn't expect Yunqing to let himself go.

"Of course. But you swear to the Martial God. Yun Qing took the tea made by Wanrong: "You have to swear to take these prisoners well, restrain them, and don't let them become bandits." ”

It is very common for a defeated army to become a rogue army, especially a defeated army without a general, and it is easy to become a bandit and robber.

Xu Shan suddenly understood, and sighed deeply: "Okay, I swear to the Martial God, I will definitely restrain my subordinates and prevent them from endangering the common people." ”

"That's good. I'll let you go back and give you enough provisions. Come on, carry General Xu down, remember to treat each other politely. Yun Qing laughed.

If he were to keep this group of captives, he would not be able to afford it. After all, he had just defeated the Yunshan Army, and most of the grain and grass of the 80,000 Yunshan Army were obtained by the coalition army, not to mention raising 20,000 prisoners, and he could afford to raise an additional 20,000.

"Yunqing, are you really going to let those prisoners go?" Wanrong was a little puzzled: "Why don't you persuade some soldiers to surrender from it?" Just like when he persuaded the soldiers of the East China Sea to surrender. ”

Yue Qingrou laughed: "We don't have the ability to absorb these captives anymore. We don't have that much time to train. Rashly absorbing them will reduce our combat effectiveness. So Yun Qing simply let them go, so that they could go back and promote Yun Qing's character. I think that after Yunqing's reputation spreads, more people will come to settle in Longlin County. ”

"It's really good to hear you say that." Yun Qing was dumbfounded: "Seriously, I really didn't think about it so much. I really don't want to raise so many captives for nothing, and I can't exchange them for ransom. ”

"Since you don't think so much, why don't you surrender some?" Wanrong still asked curiously when she heard him say this.

"I can't afford it." Yun Qing cried and said with a sad face: "If you surrender, won't you have to be fed by my territory in the end?" But I still owe you foreign debts, how can I have so much money to support so many troops? ”

Wanrong was stunned for a moment, she really didn't expect this stubble. The current military expenses were shared by all the nobles of the coalition army, but once the war ended, the coalition army was disbanded. At that time, so many soldiers recruited by Yunqing were all the responsibility of Longlin County himself. Yunqing's Longlin County, which is still very poor, really can't afford to raise so many troops. xh118
