Chapter 19 This Mountain is the Highest
Sheng Yong still didn't have the courage to lead the knife after all, at this moment, he had a lot of thoughts, his wife and children who were far away in Kyoto, the eager eyes of His Majesty the Emperor before the expedition, and the cheers of all the people continued to hover in his mind at this moment, he understood that he was actually afraid of death.
It's not a good thing for people to be self-aware, although Sheng Yong has been pressed to the ground by a few soldiers who pounced on him at this moment, but as a former commander, Sheng Yong did not lower his arrogant head.
"Let go of him, Sheng Dashuai is also something you can humiliate?"
Zhang Yu straddled the war horse and slowly walked to Sheng Yong and the others, and said with a smile: "I have wronged you, but you have to be wronged again, our prince, I really want to see you!" ”
Sheng Yong nodded gloomily, the general of the defeated army, An dares to speak bravely?
"The commander of the Southern Army has been arrested! Wait for you to surrender quickly, but you can't wait for you to die! ”
The sound of the commander of the Southern Army being arrested overshadowed the roar of the artillery, and the stunned Southern Army put down the weapons in his hand in a daze. Of course, there are also those who take the opportunity to escape, especially the cavalry, who ran a lot, after all, it is four-legged, and the Yan army does not have an advantage in numbers, and it is too late to chase it out. I had to watch and run.
The southern army was defeated like this, but Sheng Yong never dreamed of it, until the moment when he was escorted in front of Zhu Di, Sheng Yong realized that he had lost unjustly, and it seemed that the noble and majestic prince in front of him had not tasted defeat?
At this moment, Zhu Di and others have returned to Dongping City, and there is naturally a special person to deal with the post-war affairs of the prisoners, and it is not his turn to worry about the boss, and Qin Yu is also standing in the political hall, secretly looking at Sheng Yong, who is famous in history, and Sheng Yong at this time, I am afraid that there is no such opportunity, and in the future, the history books will only write the Dongping War, and Sheng Yong has become a stepping stone on the road of Emperor Zhu Di! It was not Sheng Yong who broke the myth of Zhu Di's invincibility!
Sheng Yong didn't understand this, and at this moment he was standing in the political hall without humility or arrogance. Everyone was silent for a long time, Sheng Yong still arched his hand very awkwardly, bowed to Zhu Di and said, "His Royal Highness King Yan, I have a lot of doubts!" ”
Qin Yu also thought the same way at the moment, and was puzzled in his heart, although he won this battle, Qin Yu was still stunned at this time.
Zhu Di showed his mind to his enemy marshal, and said with a smile: "Excuse me, this king will definitely answer all questions!" ”
Sheng Yong arched his hand and said: "Let's talk about this battle, isn't it clear that the Yan army is going to fight Jinan, why did the main force suddenly appear behind me!?" ”
Zhu Di laughed and said: "It's not fake to go to Jinan, but it's just a bluff, now there are only 30,000 old and weak soldiers under the city of Jinan, waving flags and shouting every day, making a look of a company camp for ten miles, and the flag covers the sun!" Every day, I just pretended to rush for two rounds, and I didn't attack hard at all. Think about it, what's the use of me taking down a Jinan city? Annihilating your 300,000 army is my goal! ”
Sheng Yong smiled bitterly, but many things were understood instantly, and said with a wry smile: "Then if I stay in Dongchang this time, then won't your plan be in vain?" ”
Zhu Di shook his head with an unfathomable smile and said, "You think wrong, if you don't move, I will really take Jinan!" ”
Sheng Yong nodded, and said helplessly: "Then how did so many of your armies appear behind us, you must know that our sentry has been scattered for twenty miles!" ”
Zhu Di shook his head, but he didn't say it, and even many generals didn't know how to do it, until many years later, Qin Yu didn't know that Zhu Di had such a shadow army, which was more pervasive than Jinyiwei and stronger than the elite cavalry of the Yan army! Clearing out a few sentry riders is a matter of minutes!
Seeing that Zhu Di didn't say anything, Sheng Yong had no choice but to shake his head helplessly, and said with a sigh: "I am convinced that I lost this battle, and it is useless for the old man to be old, I only hope that His Royal Highness King Yan can treat the captives of the Southern Army well, they are just hard-working peasant men!" ”
Zhu Di nodded, these things just don't need to be said, and he was about to speak, but a voice with joy came from outside: "Liu Wen surrendered without a fight, under the city of Jinan!" ”
The generals laughed when they heard this, and when the herald entered the tent, Zhu Di asked: "What's the matter, let's hear it, Jinan is such a big city, how can it surrender easily?" ”
The herald's face turned red, and he looked at Sheng Yong on the side and said: "Actually, the garrison Liu Wenwen wants to fight to the death with our army, but it is said that Sheng Yong said that if he loses Jinan, he will directly punish the nine clans, Liu Wen will be shaken, and our army is just persuaded to surrender, Liu Wen directly agreed!" ”
The faces of the people in the hall were very strange, and the eyes that looked at Sheng Yong were also a little funny, Sheng Yong's old face turned red, and he lowered his head deeper!
Dao Yan, the old god, will seize the opportunity, and said with a smile: "Now that the 300,000 main forces of the Southern Army have been annihilated, and the soldiers will go down to another big city without bloodshed, it can be seen that Emperor Taizu Gao has a spirit in the sky, bless His Royal Highness King Yan, and the generals will work hard to congratulate His Royal Highness King Yan and Yongchang for the Ming Dynasty!" ”
No one is uninteresting, looking at Zhu Di and Qin Yu, who were full of red light, also lowered his head, and followed everyone to congratulate: "Congratulations for His Royal Highness King Yan, and for the eternal prosperity of the Ming Dynasty!" ”
Zhu Di pressed his hands, and everyone stopped the sound of the tsunami, and it could be seen that Zhu Di was very useful.
However, Zhu Di would not delay the business, waved his hand and took Sheng Yong down, and then said with a straight face: "Mr. Daoyan, have the battle damage and other items been counted?" ”
Dao Yan nodded, then took out the booklet in his hand and flipped through it and said: "In this battle, from the beginning of the Southern Army's offensive to the present, our army has suffered more than 22,000 casualties, 13,000 soldiers killed in battle, 6,000 soldiers were slightly injured, and 3,000 soldiers were seriously injured!" ”
Zhu Di nodded, but he couldn't see any expression on his face, and said without sadness or joy: "Well, the battle loss ratio of this battle is not high, the bereavement must be implemented, and the compensation must be generous, and in addition to compensation, the seriously injured must also be sent to be responsible for transporting them back to their hometowns!" ”
Dao Yan nodded, there is a special system for these things, but you don't have to worry about it, the main thing is the captive!
Nodding to everyone, Dao Yan said with a glint in his eyes: "In this battle, the southern army dispatched 280,000 troops, a total of 120,000 people were killed and seriously wounded, and more than 10,000 people escaped, and our army currently has 150,000 prisoners in its hands!" And they're all young! ”
The seriously injured are no different from the dead in the eyes of a general, and they will not take out their own resources to save people, the big war is ahead, there is no room for the Holy Mother, even Qin Yu didn't think much about it, but 150,000 young people, let a cadre of people have bright eyes, make good use of them, these people can be of great use! Zhu Di nodded and said, "Let's talk about it, how to deal with so many prisoners?" ”
