Chapter 60 - The Battle of the Evil Stars (The End)

With the appearance of Li Xin, one of Chen Jie's three deputy generals, who was supposed to be in Jincheng to assist the general Ye Shu in Jincheng, who was supposed to be here now, completely broke the confidence of the feudal soldiers who were now retreating here and wanted to seek a way out, and they understood what Li Xin's appearance here represented. This proves that the battle of Jincheng in Qi State may have collapsed even earlier than their side. Only then was Li Xin able to lead the army south to occupy the East Linguan, and this deep and cold feeling made the feudal soldiers under the Donglin Pass feel a nuanced despair.

Li Xin stood beside the elite soldiers of the Qi State, this army was originally led by the Ming Saintess Yu Fei Ming uprising army, after following Yu Fei to surrender to the Qi State, he has been following the Qi General Li Fu, and then followed Li Xin to the north to aid the governor of Jincheng Ye Shu. Li Xin originally thought that maybe there was still a fierce battle to be fought, but he didn't think that as soon as they came into contact with the feudal army, this army inexplicably began to retreat to the west, and even when Li Xin led the army to go over to find out, the 50,000 troops of the feudal state had already prepared a boat to cross the Xuanling River and sailed away. Li Xin had no choice but to lead 30,000 troops south, just to control the Donglin Pass, which was almost destroyed because of the phoenix. I never thought that it was because he was such an unintentional move, but he blocked the return of tens of thousands of feudal troops.

Under the city, Yang Yu couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, this time they had indeed lost the country, and the face of defeat was lost, and even the most elite soldiers could be annihilated here. Yang Yu exclaimed sadly, "Your Majesty, if you can hear it, come and save us."

The continuous blows and the exhaustion of his mind, Yang Yu's physical strength had already been overdrawn, and he commanded the army to withdraw here, and what was waiting for them was not a bright future, but a darker and darker future. Yang Yu let out a sad cry, and the silver spear in his hand couldn't help but fall to the ground. The army of the feudal state was still hesitating under the eastern pass, but the army in the rear of the Qi state had already arrived. In addition to the two majestic generals, there were five young men who looked young, but their bodies were glowing with a dark purple glow. Together, these seven people led the Qi army behind them, whose morale was high, and rushed here.

Jin Xu narrowed his eyes, and when he saw the Qi General standing on the city tower, his face turned into unbelievable ecstasy. "Li Xin, why did you come here?"

Li Xin smiled slightly, and said in a long voice: "What, didn't I come at the right time?" "What's the matter, I just didn't expect that you kid is quite fast."

Hearing the conversation between these two people, even Zhang Lingyi, who has always been unsmiling, couldn't help but smile, he made a gesture to Li Xin from afar to go out of the city, Li Xin understood, so he opened the gate of Donglinguan and led the 30,000 troops under his command to go out of Donglinguan, forming a two-sided attack on the army of the feudal country. Immediately, Zhang Lingyi stepped forward, stood in front of the Qi army, and shouted to the feudal army not far in front of him: "Zhang Lingyi, the governor of Ruocheng in Qi State, I know that you are all loyal and brave people, and you are not forced to do so, please choose for yourself, whether to surrender to our Qi country or die on the battlefield, it is up to you to choose." But don't forget, your family and friends don't want you to die like this, and besides, only by living can they take revenge. Think for yourselves."

After speaking, Zhang Lingyi turned around and returned to the feudal army, and signs of rebellion began to appear, and the remaining cavalry units of the feudal light cavalry corps began to surrender to the Qi state. While accepting their surrender, the Qi army pressed Yang Yu and his few feudal soldiers from both sides.

Yang Yu let out a long sigh, and his heart had already sprouted a desperate will to fight to the death at this time. Yang Yu slowly pulled out the silver saber from his waist, and the silver light pointed straight to the sky. Yang Yu shouted angrily: "For the sake of sealing the country, we must not admit defeat!

Although the morale of the feudal army was low, the rest of them were now loyal and righteous soldiers, they were all soldiers who had been favored by the Holy Emperor, and it was absolutely impossible for them to choose to surrender. Dying on the battlefield may be the best choice. Therefore, Yang Yu's words also inspired them and made them regain such a rare fighting spirit.

Yang Yu roared angrily: "Brothers, come with me! We are the personal followers of His Majesty the Holy Emperor, and we swear to defend His Majesty the Holy Emperor and our great rivers and mountains to the death!"

Immediately, Yang Yu personally stepped out, he waved the silver spear in his hand and rushed forward, and the feudal soldiers behind him also followed. On the side of the Qi State, Jin Xu went out alone to meet Yang Yu, Li Xin led 30,000 Ming soldiers to attack the Feng State army from the rear, and Jin Xu led 30,000 Qi State troops to face the Feng State enemy army head-on. In a short period of time, although Yang Yu met the general Zhang Lingyi of Qi head-on, the soldiers of the feudal state who followed him repeatedly became fewer, and when Yang Yu and Zhang Lingyi fought head-on, the number of feudal soldiers behind him became smaller and smaller, some surrendered to the Qi state, and the other part was annihilated by the surrounding Qi army. Now there are less than 20,000 troops left on Yang Yu's side.

Yang Yu couldn't control the feudal soldiers behind him now, and his attention was all on Zhang Lingyi, who was shooting in front of him. But who knows, he and Zhang Lingyi fought for less than twenty rounds, and Zhang Lingyi sold a small flaw and grabbed him directly. According to common sense, there is not much difference between Yang Yu and Zhang Lingyi's martial arts, but Yang Yu has experienced a nervous breakdown for nearly three days, he has not slept well and eaten well in the past two days, coupled with the fear and anxiety in his heart now, he is powerless to fight against Zhang Lingyi at all, and in a short twenty rounds of confrontation, Zhang Lingyi has successfully taken Yang Yu down.

In this way, the army of the feudal kingdom completely gave up its futile resistance, and the most important thing for them now was only to save their own lives. Zhang Lingyi's original words touched their hearts inexplicably, after Yang Yu was captured, the surrounding feudal soldiers all laid down their weapons, and they had given up their resistance. Rather than continue to fight in vain, it is better to surrender and maybe save a life.

Zhang Lingyi, Jin Xu and Li Xin, the three lieutenants of Chen Jie, finally met again, and during this time they hugged each other for a while, temporarily forgetting their enemies and telling each other about parting. Li Xin told Zhang Lingyi and Jin Xu that what he had encountered around Jincheng was very magical, and with the help of some serendipity, he won without a fight. And now, he actually encountered such an opportunity, and he inadvertently changed the original stalemate situation with a cautious move, which led to a series of important things that happened later.

At this time, Li Fu, the general of the Qi State, led the remaining and reorganized feudal troops to arrive, and now Li Fu has a very powerful army in his hands, so he will lead the army to come here to assist the other Qi troops. I never thought that there was no need to wait for him and the Qi army under his command to make a move, and the army of the feudal country lost their command and due courage and courage like a plate of scattered sand, especially after Yang Yu was captured alive by Zhang Ling Yisheng, the 20,000 troops still left in the feudal country have already chosen to give up resistance. Although their hearts are still loyal to the feudal country, they just want to save their lives and return to the territory of the feudal kingdom.

The Qi army almost swept away the entire feudal army outside the city of Donglinguan with lightning speed, and after rectifying the current situation, they all felt that this battle was too much of a coincidence, if it were not for the favor of the goddess of fate, they were likely to face the tragic situation of being occupied by the feudal state at least the entire south, and their leaders were discussing countermeasures, that is, what to do with these captives.

Li Fu is actually more personally inclined to incorporate all the more than 30,000 elite soldiers of the feudal state. It's just that such an unrealistic idea of his was immediately rejected by himself. He also thought that the families of these feudal soldiers were all in the feudal country, and even if they surrendered, they would not take care of their families, once the Holy Emperor used this paragraph to make a big fuss, maybe their Qi country would suffer a big loss.

After pondering for a while, Zhang Lingyi suggested that it would be better to imprison them for the time being, and wait for two months for the Spring Festival next year, during which time the captives would be released back to the feudal state and reunite with their families.

Jin Xu frowned, he hadn't figured out the reason for this for a while. He asked in a deep voice, "So, what kind of benefits can we gain by such means?"

Zhang Lingyi smiled slightly, he had already had his own thoughts about this matter, and when Jin Xu asked him, he explained with a smile: "The families of these 30,000 feudal army are not on our side, even if we recruit them, it is only temporary, and it is impossible to make them belong forever." Instead of this, it is better to let them enjoy the enthusiasm of our Qi country, and then release them back to China on the festive season of Chinese New Year's Eve, so that these tens of thousands of feudal soldiers will be grateful to us, although it will not make them rebel for a while, but at least it can be regarded as a favor, laying a foreshadowing for the future. Moreover, as long as we send these 30,000 feudal soldiers back intact, the reputation of the Holy Emperor will naturally be hit. In this way, the people will naturally think that the Holy Emperor does not want to redeem these 30,000 loyal people, so that the people in the feudal country can be dissatisfied with the Holy Emperor, is this really a happy thing?"

Jin Xu just wanted to speak, but suddenly a black shadow obscured the twilight sky above his head, when he raised his head to look, he found that the northern sky suddenly flashed a cloudy red flame, this flame was as brilliant as a red glow, as the fiery red cloud got closer and closer, showing the red feathers that were gradually complete and the nine bright white feathers in front of the body. Zhang Lingyi, Jin Xu, Li Xin, and Li Fu may not be very familiar with this fiery red figure, but Feng Yuchong and the others, how could they not know the origin of this red cloud?

"Holy Emperor, it's still here after all" Feng Yuchong, who was standing beside Li Fu, couldn't help but sigh. And it was such an understatement that was enough to calm down the originally elated Qi soldiers around them in an instant. The Holy Emperor, this man like a legend, brought the shock and deterrence to the Qi army is really incomprehensible, although the current Qi army has basically controlled the situation, but for the Holy Emperor, none of them dare to relax in the slightest. And the soldiers of the feudal kingdom were secretly excited in their hearts, His Majesty the Holy Emperor, has he finally come to save them? The soldiers of the feudal kingdom, who had already settled down, began to quietly stir again.
