"If you surrender? What should the Fire Lynx Army do with us? After a while, the pale-faced Zamuhe raised his head and asked word by word.

After carefully considering Zhang Yuanjing's words, and thinking of the recent situation, Zamuhe was stupid, and he could see a trace of something wrong from it. Thinking of what the King of Beihai said to him the night before yesterday, don't let the soldiers of the Beihai tribes withdraw lightly. In an instant, he understood that he Zamuhe was actually an outcast. In this situation, he only has three ends. One is to fight with the Huolin Army and die on the battlefield; second, he was seen by the soldiers of the Beihai tribes and killed by the angry soldiers; The last one is to escape and return to the tribe. The result is not unexpected, and it should be to bear the responsibility for the defeat in this battle, which is also a dead end.

No wonder when the North Sea King went hunting, Gao Yan sighed at himself, it turned out that he had already guessed or seen something abnormal from it. I'm so stupid that I haven't gotten a high position of being the commander of the whole army...... Ha ha...... It's stupid! In vain, I have been loyal to the King of the North Sea for many years, and I ended up like this. Zamuhe was resentful at the moment. If the King of the North Sea had told him what had happened before he left, he might have shed his last drop of blood for the King of the North Sea. But he couldn't accept that he was being treated like an idiot and an outcast.

Zhang Yuanjing heard Zamuhe's words, and was secretly happy in his heart. Zhang Yuanjing still knows something about Zamuhe. This person is extraordinary, upright, usually very arrogant, and extremely loyal to the King of the North Sea. It stands to reason that such a person should be very popular with the King of the North Sea. However, this is not the case, the king of Beihai, who has traveled in Youzhou for several years, is very particular about the dignity and humility of the upper and lower levels, and he is very displeased with such a big person as Zamuhe. Except for the commander who was the outcast this time and the commander of the infantry army all the way last time, the rest of the time, it has always been only a thousand generals. Zamu is brave, but the overall situation and strategy are not good, he can only be a brave general, not a wise general, let alone a handsome. This is also the reason why he became an outcast, but his upright temperament does not mean stupidity, in Zhang Yuanjing's few words, Zamuhe immediately understood, and he also knew that what Zhang Yuanjing said was not far from ten.

Zhang Yuanjing paused and said casually: "If you surrender, or join the Huolin Army or leave freely, you can choose." Your subordinates, it's no longer you and I can decide. But my lord has said that those who are willing to lay down their weapons and surrender will not die! ”

Looking at the generals with different faces around him, Zhang Yuanjing said coldly: "As for the generals, my family also said that those who are willing to surrender can leave safely with a hundred subordinates and subordinate generals. Whether to fight or surrender, you have already made a decision, and an hour later, the Huolin Army will attack on all fronts. Zhang said goodbye! With that, he turned and walked out.

"Wait! This grown-up is slow! A shout stopped Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuanjing turned around again and saw a man in a fox coat in his thirties, standing in the hall, looking at him.

"If I remember correctly, you should be from the Yuyi Ministry...... General Antai, yes, it's General Antai. ”

The thirty-year-old man smiled: "That's right, at that time, Lord Zhang was still a thousand generals in the camp, the Beihai pro-army. I didn't expect Mr. Zhang to remember me as a little person, what an honor. ”

Zhang Yuanjing smiled: "Little people? No! No! No! General Antai is the main general of the department, but he is much stronger than Zhang, an inconspicuous and unpopular thousand-person general. I don't know what happened when General Antai called Zhang? ”

An Tai looked at the generals around him who were staring at him, his heart was crossed, and he gritted his teeth and said: "An is willing to surrender, I don't know if Lord Zhang can sue An and what treatment my brothers will receive." They are all men who came with me, and they are also not liked by the tribe, and I can't bear to let them die here. If adults ......"

"Then what does General Antai mean? Join the Fire Lin Army and continue to lead them? Zhang Yuanjing looked at Antai with a smile and said.

An Tai secretly sighed and said with a wry smile: "An Mou didn't dare to have this idea, I just hope that the Huolin Army can give them a way to live." This attack on Bai County is also an order, and it has nothing to do with ordinary soldiers......"

Zhang Yuanjing interrupted Antai's words and said, "General Antai don't worry, my family said that the soldiers who surrendered will not die." I know what the general is worried about, and the general can rest assured that they will not be punished heavily. You must know that in Yanzhou Mansion, there are many people of all ethnic groups and tribes living, and they are given the same status as the Han people. Of course, the premise is that they have given up their previous identities, and now they are all Han people, and they are all people of Yanzhou Mansion. ”

After glancing around, Zhang Yuanjing continued: "The general led people to join him, and his subordinates were willing to give up their previous identities, and after review, they joined Yanzhou Mansion, and after obtaining the household registration of Yanzhou Mansion, they would obtain the status equivalent to that of Han Chinese." Either for the people or for the soldiers, the Huolin army will allocate land, provide agricultural tools and seeds, and at harvest time, repay them in proportion. If you are not good at farming, you can graze and join the army. The treatment of the Huolin Army is much better than that of the soldiers. Of course. The general can also take a hundred men with him, and you cannot take anything with you, except for your own horses and rations for a hundred men. General Antai, have you thought about it? ”

Antai took a deep breath again, and Zhengse said: "Six hundred people in my department, willing to surrender!" Your Excellency, please wait a minute, I will go and straighten out the men and supplies, and leave with the adults. "Anyway, let's get people back to camp and prepare their own things.

"Wait! General Antai, how can you do such a thing that rebels against your ancestors, betrays the king, and betrays the Pao Ze brothers. Generals, we should work together, I don't believe it, my Northern Navy warriors can't defeat the Huolin Army? The king will definitely come back, don't believe this guy from the Huolin Army. He is disturbing the morale of the army, I will build yì, pull out his soft bones, and kill them! ”

Antai didn't need to look back to go straight, and it was the commander of the rear battalion who said cruel words, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and he said in a cold voice: "I am the chief general of the Yuyi department, and it is not your turn to intervene in the affairs of the Yuyi department." ”

"Bold, arrogant! Someone is coming, ......," the commander of the Handli Department roared loudly.

"Handlibu? Good! I remember, then you can wait for your king to save you. If you dare to move, when you attack, all the soldiers of our Huolin Army, whenever they see the Handli Division, will not die! Zhang Yuanjing stared at the chief general of the Handli tribe, and said in a gloomy voice, the killing intent in his tone made the chief general of the Handi tribe, who was over forty years old, tremble. Looking at Zhang Yuanjing's indifferent eyes, thinking about Zhang Yuanjing's words, the head general of the Hanli Department finally just glared at An Tai fiercely, and then turned back to his position angrily.

The chief general of the Hanli Department is not afraid of Antai, nor does he climb the Yuyi Department, and as for the Huolin Army, he is not afraid. But in case the King of the North Sea really doesn't arrive, and when he withdraws, he will have a bad relationship with the Huolin Army, he believes that no one will lend a hand. What's more, he now believes Zhang Yuanjing's words, the king of Beihai slipped away, and after leaving these tens of thousands of soldiers from the Beihai tribes, he slipped away......

"Wait...... My lord stays, and my department is willing to surrender! ”

"So is my department!"

When Antai was tidying up his things and preparing to leave with Zhang Yuanjing, the other two masters came out at the same time and asked for surrender. These two Zhang Yuanjing don't know each other, which also shows that these two are just small tribes. After inquiry, sure enough, there were only 500 soldiers in the two divisions combined, and the rest had already died. But they had more than 1,000 cattle and sheep as food for the army. Now it's all from the Fire Lin Army.

The Northern Navy battalion, counting the wounded, has only 18,000 soldiers, and there are 23 tribes of all sizes, of which six tribes are the main generals of the light pole, and the subordinates are basically wiped out. The remaining seventeen tribes hid three or five thousand, and there were three or five hundred less.

When the three tribes surrendered, they pulled out more than 1,100 people and 2,000 war horses, including 600 horses. 300 cattle and 1,100 sheep.

Zhang Yuanjing was very happy to be able to achieve such an effect overnight, but his face did not show the slightest discoloration, as if everything in front of him had nothing to do with him.

"Zhang Shan! You go back with the three generals first, and leave it to the adults to deal with. If you sue Lord Sù, you will say that the morale of the Northern Navy has plummeted, and the intensity of resistance is not much higher. Perhaps, we can convince half of them. As for the die-hards and those who are lucky, it will be up to the army of adults to deal with them. You first let the adults settle these people who are willing to surrender, and I will persuade you a few more words to try to get a greater effect. Zhang Yuanjing said to one of the two people who accompanied him, these two were the sentry commanders of the pro-guard team, and they came to protect the envoy Zhang Yuanjing.

Zhang Shan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go back with them first, Master Zhang is careful." My lord said that one's own safety is more important than persuasion to surrender to the enemy. ”

The three generals swaggered out of the Northern Navy camp with more than 1,000 people and 2,000 livestock, and marched towards the Huolin Army camp opposite. The snow was falling and sprinkling, leaving a long list of marks on the snow.

After surrendering to the Huolin Army, more than 1,000 soldiers did not make any major moves after listening to the commander's military order. For this battle, it took more than 20 days, with countless casualties, and the soldiers were already impatient. What's more, after hearing the news that the King of Beihai had slipped away and the whole army was surrounded, these soldiers were even more reluctant to die in vain. The soldiers of these tribes are the house slaves of the nobles of various tribes, and after this battle, whether they go back or not, there will be no good end. After hearing that he could obtain the household registration of Yanzhou Mansion, obtain the identity of Yanzhou Mansion equivalent to Han people, obtain land, and join the army to obtain rich salaries and rewards. There was no more resistance from these soldiers. In fact, there is another reason, they are all the leaders of their own generals, and they are quite like domestic slaves. The Lord has all descended, but where else can they go?

"General Antai!" The two clan leaders who accompanied Antai clasped their fists at Antai and said, "Do you know how the Huolin Army will settle us?" ”

Antai said with some worry: "This, I don't know. I really can't bear to let these six hundred of my men who came with me die here like this. If it's a real battle, that's fine, but the King of the North Sea...... Don't say it! How? Worried? If you are worried, why do you want to surrender? ”

"Don't fall? I'm afraid I won't be able to live if I don't fall. Both of us are from small tribes, and the last time he accidentally offended the commander of the left battalion, he had long wanted to swallow the two of us and take our livestock for himself. Besides, if there is one or two less tribes like us, the tribal leaders don't care at all......"

"The three generals don't worry, we are trustworthy people, and we won't plot against you, but we won't. Besides, under the banner of our Huolin Army, there are already two cavalry teams composed of soldiers from the various divisions of the Indigo Army, and one of them even has an unknown credit. Even the infantry battalions are inferior. ”

"Really?" Antai's eyes lit up and he asked urgently.

"Of course! However, they fought in Yingzhou Mansion, and it is said that they made a lot of contributions to the defeat of the Yingzhou Prefecture Army! Zhang Shan's eyes showed a hint of appreciation. The general's men will be dispersed and formed into an army after training in the boot camp for at least three months. The same is true for all the generals who are willing to join the Fire Lin Army, and when the time comes, the adults will arrange positions, and in short, they will not be disadvantaged to you. Let me say one more thing, the five ministries that surrendered first will be treated like this, and the rest of the ministries will not have such a good fate. As for those captives, hummed...... "Zhang Shan is not stupid, and naturally according to Zhao Xun's meaning, he gave a small hint to the three of them, and at the same time told them that they were lucky."

After listening to what Zhang Shan said, the three of them were relieved. As for the dispersal of his subordinates, this was expected. As long as he is not executed by the Huolin Army, he is already a great luck.

Approaching the defense line of the Huolin Army, although Zhao Xun did not arrive, he also left a military order, asking the soldiers of the Beihai tribes who surrendered to unload their weapons, dismount their horses, and then place them in the large camp in the city. There are armed young guards around, but they will not be suppressed by others.

"Three generals, my family is on the northern defense line and cannot return for the time being, so please settle in the school captain's mansion for the time being. As for your subordinates, they are placed in the camp in the north of the city, and they will not have accidents, of course, if they don't come nonsense. According to Zhao Xun's meaning, Qin You, the former deputy general of the government army, placed three officers with more than 100 generals in the heavily guarded captain's mansion, separated from their respective subordinates, and this was also to prevent accidents.

The three generals glanced at each other, and Antai smiled bitterly: "I understand, the generals can rest assured, they will never make any changes." ”

Qin You said with a smile: "That's the best, the three generals can rest here, if necessary, just order the soldiers outside." ”
