On the morning of June 10, 3012 in the Tang calendar, in a dormitory in the imperial palace of Cangyu City, the capital of the Cangyu Empire, Shi Jian, the prime minister of the Cangyu Empire, said to Emperor Zhao Zhi and Prince Zhao Kai with a gloomy face: "Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness the Prince, the Ninth Legion, the Tenth Legion, the Eleventh Legion and the Twelfth Legion of the Royal Army of the Cangyu Empire, which were besieged by the Su Army in Fuyang City, Hongshan Province, surrendered to the Su Army yesterday. ”

Emperor Zhao Zhi coughed violently a few times, and then said with a little anger: "The four infantry legions add up to 1.2 million people, but they have only been surrounded by the Su family army for a few days, and they chose to surrender, is it possible that our Royal Army of the Cangyu Empire has become so unbearable now?" Ahem, ahem—"

In the end, Emperor Zhao Zhi began to cough more violently, and the crown prince Zhao Kai hurriedly said: "Father and Emperor are angry, it is really the strength shown by the Su family army is too strong, even the Shalad Empire has suffered a big loss, and at present, in Dingxin City in Southern Hebei Province and Anzhou City in Lunan Province, there are five infantry corps in the Shalad Empire that have also been surrounded by the Su Army. ”

Emperor Zhao Zhi slowed down, and then sighed and said: "But the army of the Shalad Empire is still fighting, and our Royal Army of the Cangyu Empire is surrendering to the Su Army in a structured manner, by the way, in Dingxin City and Anzhou City, what happened to the four infantry legions that our Royal Army of the Cangyu Empire was also surrounded?" ”

Prime Minister Shi Jian hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, those four infantry legions are still insisting on fighting, and with the army of the Sharad Empire fighting side by side, presumably those four infantry legions should not surrender easily." ”

Emperor Zhao Zhi suddenly smiled bitterly, "I can't imagine that our dignified number one power in the Eastern Continent would have to rely on the army of the Sharad Empire to defend against foreign enemies, what a great irony!" ”

On the evening of June 11, in a basement in Anzhou City, Lunan Province, Cangyu Empire, the commander of the 12th Infantry Regiment of the Royal Army of the Sharad Empire, Corne, slammed his fist on the table in front of him, and then angrily said to the other two commanders of the Royal Army of the Sharad Empire: "We should immediately take over the command of the two infantry regiments of the Cangyu Empire, and today the two infantry regiments of the Cangyu Empire, together there are tens of thousands of people who have taken the initiative to surrender to the Su Army. As a result, we lost almost a quarter of our positions to the east outside the city of Anju. ”

This basement is currently the temporary headquarters of the 8th, 12th and 25th Infantry Regiments of the Royal Army of the Shalad Empire.

Lazarik, the commander of the Eighth Infantry Regiment of the Royal Army of the Shalad Empire, said with a calm face: "Marquis of Kurgne, there is no need for you to be so angry, if the army of the Cangyu Empire was not so unbearable, our Shalad Empire would not have conquered the most populous country in the world so easily before. ”

At this time, the commander of the 25th Infantry Legion, Maesim, frowned and said: "Now the troops of the two infantry legions of the Cangyu Empire have been transferred to the positions outside the city, if they continue to surrender on such a large scale, it may not be long before the Su family army will reach the city." ”

Lazarik, the commander of the Eighth Infantry Legion, smiled and said indifferently: "I hope that the two infantry legions of the Cangyu Empire will all surrender to the Su Army, so that no one will cause chaos for us, and according to the battle plan we formulated, the street battle in the city is the real battlefield between our three infantry corps and the Su Army, and the Su Army has an absolute advantage in artillery, and our three infantry corps will suffer a lot if they fight outside the city with the Su Army." ”

The commander of the Twelfth Infantry Legion, Corne, said with some hesitation: "Marquis Lazarik, after all, there are still hundreds of thousands of people in the two infantry legions of the Cangyu Empire, isn't it a pity to give up on them like this?" We could have taken over their command and let them be used as cannon fodder. ”

Lazarik, the commander of the Eighth Infantry Legion, shook his head and said: "The army of the Cangyu Empire will only hold us back, if we keep them, I am worried that when we fight in the streets in the city, it will bring more trouble to our three infantry legions, and the more than 800,000 civilians of the Cangyu Empire in Anzhou City are the only bargaining chips for our three infantry legions to resist the heavy artillery of the Su family." ”

Just when the three corps commanders of the Salad Imperial Royal Army in Anzhou City were discussing things, Sun Yongyan, the commander of the Eighth Legion of the Royal Army of the Cangyu Empire, and Chang Jingchun, the commander of the Thirteenth Legion of the Royal Army of the Cangyu Empire, also gathered together.

Chang Jingchun smiled bitterly and said: "Today, my thirteenth legion, at least 30,000 people have to surrender to the Su family's army, and now the strength of the entire thirteenth legion is only about 180,000. ”

Sun Yongyan sighed and said: "The news that the Ninth Legion, the Tenth Legion, the Eleventh Legion, and the Twelfth Legion have all surrendered to the Su Family Army has come, plus Lazarik, who commanded the three infantry legions of the Shalad Empire, has transferred the two infantry legions of our Cangyu Empire to the outside of the city as cannon fodder, which makes the officers and soldiers below unwilling to continue fighting." ”

Chang Jingchun pondered for a while and said: "Brother Yongyan, the combat effectiveness shown by the Su family army is really shocking now, not to mention that the Su family army still has a huge fleet capable of suppressing the Salad Navy, maybe our Cangyu Empire will really change the dynasty, why don't we take advantage of the fact that the remaining troops of our two infantry corps are outside Anzhou City, and the two of us are also similar to Cui Shijie, Li Jinsong, Sheng Haoming and Chen Jiyuan?" ”

Sun Yongyan sighed again, "Brother Jingchun, I actually have this plan, it's not that we don't want to be loyal to the royal family, it's just that the hearts of the troops have been scattered." ”

On the afternoon of June 12, outside the city of Anzhou, the remnants of the Eighth Army Corps and the Thirteenth Army Corps of the Royal Army of the Cangyu Empire, under the leadership of the two corps commanders, chose to surrender unconditionally to the Su Army.

And the three infantry legions of the Royal Army of the Sharad Empire, after discovering that the remnants of the two infantry legions of the Cangyu Empire had collectively surrendered to the Su army, quickly abandoned all positions outside the city and retreated to the urban area of Anzhou City.

The two commanders of the Salad Empire, who were surrounded by the Su family army in Dingxin City, Southern Hebei Province of the Cangyu Empire, also adopted the method of Lazarik, the commander of the Eighth Infantry Corps of the Royal Army of the Shalad Empire, in order to prevent the troops of the Cangyu Empire from dragging their feet, they all transferred the two infantry corps of the Cangyu Empire in Dingxin City to the positions outside the city.

On the morning of June 14, the 14th and 15th Army Corps of the Royal Army of the Cangyu Empire outside Dingcheng City also surrendered to the Su Army.

At this point, the Royal Army of the Cangyu Empire already had eight infantry regiments, which surrendered to the Su family army in a structured manner, and the number of prisoners of war in the hands of the Su family army suddenly increased to 2.8 million.
