"Chapter 43: Forcing the Wind to Fall"

In fact, we know that the whole history is only a distorted history, and what is passed on is only a distorted history.

– Thomas Bernhard (Austria's most controversial writer)

Under Montgomery's suppression, the generals of the Swift Wind Thieves Regiment, who wanted to lead the army, had no choice but to sit back and watch the tens of thousands of people of the New Luke Group pass through the southern gate in turn and surrender to the White Peak army outside the base.

After all the people of the New Luke group evacuated the Tempest base, little Luke, who did not fight to the death with the elite of the Tempest Thieves to avenge his father's father, was unwilling to lead the 8,000 New Army soldiers under his command to evacuate the Tempest base.

The first New Luke group to surrender to its own army was rightfully valued by Bai Feng; Lu Jie, the supreme leader of the New Luke group, and the military commander Luke Jr. were not only personally received and praised by Bai Feng, but also entrusted with important tasks by Bai Feng, who was in charge of the two provinces!

The people of the New Luke group will be scattered and settled in the nearest county of Brojansson, and Lu Jie has been appointed by Bai Feng as the lord of a small city in Brojansson County, which was almost destroyed by the orcs, and the main population of the new Luke group will be the people of the new Luke group in the future.

Little Luke, who had only been in command of the New Luke Group army for less than a day, was appointed by Bai Feng as the commander of the Fifth Eastern Army; in addition to the 8,000 soldiers under the command of Little Luke, the other soldiers of the New Army who later surrendered out of the city will be included in the Fifth Eastern Army that will be formed.

Naturally, it is impossible for the new army of the Wind Thieves Regiment, with a total strength of 30,000, to be used to form the Fifth Eastern Legion, and only the best of these 30,000 new troops can really be selected for the Eastern Legion.

Bai Feng's principle to Leonardo in private was to comprehensively refer to the selection criteria of the other four Eastern Army Corps officers and soldiers to select and allocate the 30,000 new troops that surrendered, and would rather reduce the number of officers and men of the Fifth Eastern Army than reduce the quality of the officers and men of the Fifth Eastern Army!

The people of the New Luke group and the soldiers of the New Army, who were the first to leave the Storm Base, retreated towards the outskirts of the mountains and forests under the unified guidance of the soldiers of the First Brigade of the Yulin Wing, following the route of the White Peak's army.

With the New Luke group as an example for everyone, the other six groups in the Tempest base left the base one after another and surrendered to the White Peak army outside the city, and the leaders and military commanders of these groups were met one by one and given appropriate rewards.

The six group leaders were appointed by Bai Feng as mayors of six towns, not all of which were located in the county of Brojansson, but were scattered among the counties of Brojansson Province, and the inhabitants of the towns were no longer familiar to the leaders.

When only Montgomery and his five thousand descendants were left in the Tempest base, the last glimmer of light in the western sky was gradually disappearing, and seeing that night was approaching, Bai Feng did not rush to give the siege order, but called Bai Er to himself.

"Bai Er, you immediately go in along the wide open south gate of the Wind Base to find Montgomery, the leader of the Wind Thieves Group, and after finding him, tell him for me, I will give him half an hour, if he doesn't go out of the city to surrender, I will bloodied the Wind Thieves Group tomorrow morning!"

"No!"

As a fifth-level fire-based flame sword saint, Bai Er quickly came to the Leader's Mansion in the Wind Base with Bai Feng's order, and all the elite soldiers of the Wind Thieves Group who stood in front of Bai Er were slaughtered in a red sword light.

Paresi and Casvol, the strongest of the Wind Thieves, joined forces and only managed to hold out for less than three moves in the White Raiders, and just as the White Er was about to kill Paresi and Carswall, Montgomery walked out of the Leader's Mansion with the Storm Thieves generals.

"Keep people under the sword!" Montgomery, who stopped Bai Er, shouted: "I am Montgomery, the leader of the Wind Thieves Clan, I don't know why Your Excellency came to my Lord's Mansion to make a fuss?"

"You are Montgomery?" Bai Er, whose sword blade was on Paresi's neck, suddenly put away his sword and turned around: "Montgomery, my general asked me to transfer it to you, if you don't go out of the city and surrender within half an hour, then tomorrow morning, my general will bloody your Wind Thieves Regiment!"

If it was so arrogant, if it had been placed two days ago, it would definitely have made all the generals of the Wind Thieves Group fry the pot, but right now, no one dared to stand up and refute Bai Er, the two strongest and most short-tempered among the generals of the Wind Thieves Group, their lives were still in Bai Er's hands.

In the face of the aggressive Bai Er, Montgomery was not angry, he was silent for a while and then spoke: "Please also transfer it to General Bai Feng for me, I can lead the army to surrender to him, but he must ensure the safety of the soldiers under my command, otherwise I would rather die in the net!"

"The fish is dead and the net is broken, just rely on your 5,000 remnants of the army to defeat the general?" Bai Er, who sneered, left directly with Montgomery's reply.

Looking at Bai Er's distant back, Mountbatten said to Montgomery with a nervous face: "Chief, do we really want to surrender to Bai Feng? If Your Highness loses us again, then Your Highness really has no chance to make a comeback!"

"What do I don't know about what you're talking about?" Montgomery, who had a bitter face, asked Paresi and Casvol, who were being helped up by the guards, "Paresi, Casvol, what do you think of this man's strength just now?"

"Unfathomable! If he had done his best, I would not have been his enemy!" Paresi's frankness made the other generals present except Montgomery feel incredulous, but it was not what shocked them the most.

"As you know, I had the privilege of studying under Duke Albert for two years, and the feeling of powerlessness I felt when I faced this man just now reminded me of the Duke, and even stronger than the sense of oppression that the Duke brought me!"

If Paresi's answer was unbelievable, then Caswal's answer was incredible, you must know that Duke Albert was not only the captain of the Imperial Thunder Legion, but also one of the extremely rare saint-level powerhouses in the Empire.

A Sword Saint who is more powerful than Duke Albert As soon as he thought of this, everyone present immediately fell into an ice cellar, and suddenly felt cold all over; as for why there was a saint-level powerhouse under Bai Feng's command that everyone didn't know, this was no longer what they thought about when they had almost lost their ability to think.

After Bai Feng outside the city learned of Montgomery's conditions, he chose to agree without hesitation, and after Bai Er, who had made another trip, came to the Wind Base for the second time, he was greeted not by the swords of the soldiers of the Wind Thieves Regiment, but by a series of eyes that were almost looking up.

Montgomery, who had long been ready to surrender in his heart, glanced at Bai Er with extremely complicated eyes, and then began to give orders to his generals and soldiers to go out of the city and surrender;

When Auchinleck walked out of the Storm Base with the first batch of Swift Wind Thieves Regiment's soldiers, Bai Feng knew that the matter of the Swift Wind Thieves Regiment was half over, and the remaining half was no longer a military battle, but a political aftermath.

The 5,000 elite soldiers of the Wind Thieves Regiment who laid down their weapons were handed over by Bai Feng to the Fourth Division of the Feather Forest Regiment for custody, and the generals of the Wind Thieves Regiment led by Montgomery were left by Bai Feng in Luculus's personal guards.
