Chapter 197: Let the Tiger Return to the Mountain
Everyone looked at this young figure blankly, a man in his twenties who became the leader of the Ling clan's military camp?
This is too incredible, they all thought they were dreaming, but seeing Xu Guang's respectful attitude, how could it be fake?
"Everyone, you have suffered, although you are prisoners, but we are each fighting for our homeland, whether we win or lose, we are all soldiers, and soldiers, do not deserve this treatment. ”
These people who Hong Yan said in one sentence were even more at a loss, including the general surnamed Shen, who was also full of doubts, what did this young general want to do.
"There is something you may not believe when you say it, but I still have to tell you that the army of the Xuancang Empire led by Zhong Ming has abandoned you, and they have been holding the same place for half a month, during which time you have long been forgotten. Hong Yan continued.
"Fart, it's impossible, it's impossible for the general to give up on ours, you want to provoke our allegiance to the Empire, don't think about it. ”
"That's it...... This kind of trick is really ridiculous......"
There was a lot of talk, and it was obvious that they wouldn't believe what Hong Yan said, at least for the time being, whether they really didn't believe it or not.
"I know you won't believe me, but I want to show you something. ”
After Hong Yan finished speaking, the Nine Souls on the side took out an item similar to a compass from his hand, and the soul power in his hand rippled to urge the operation of this thing, only to see that this compass-like thing began to rotate rapidly.
Half an hour later, the surrounding night sky was suddenly lit up with a silvery light, which shrouded the entire captive camp with a clear and visible light and shadow.
All the soldiers in the prisoner camp seemed to be really in another barracks, and in the silver light was the army stationed in the Xuancang Empire.
"Horse ...... General Ma ......"
I saw that Ma Yiwu was dressed in a long robe and was majestic, and there were maids around him rubbing his shoulders and pinching his legs, and one bonfire party after another was lit in front of him, and every soldier was so excited and satisfied.
Many captive soldiers subconsciously grasped something, but it was just a projected phantom, although it seemed to be around, but it couldn't be touched.
Suddenly, the shining silver light disappeared, and there were still captive barracks around, only to hear Hong Yan say, "This is an unpredictable Horcrux, but the soul power consumed is huge, so I can only show you these for the time being, but I believe you already have a general understanding of the reinforcements behind you now." ”
Without Hong Yan saying this, the entire captive barracks could feel a monstrous aura of anger burning.
We have been wronged here, and we only hope that the reinforcements will be able to fight for us and rescue us, but you are good, the garrison did not move at all, but sang and danced in their own barracks, as if they had won the battle.
But don't forget, that's an army of millions, can't a million army still fight 200,000 people, and what is there to be so happy about?
What about us, our captives, have you really forgotten completely?
"No...... It's not like that, you're lying to us, this must be an illusion you've created......" The big man surnamed Shen roared angrily.
"Shen Mingyang, is it true, don't you go back and take a look?" Xu Guang said coldly.
"What? you...... Do you mean, you let us go?" Shen Mingyang thought that he must have heard it wrong, how could he let these captives leave out of thin air, it seems that this kind of thing has not happened since ancient times, there are more than 10,000 people here.
I only heard Hong Yan say, "I have just said, whether it is an enemy army or a friendly army, we are all soldiers, since we are soldiers, we must have the dignity of soldiers, the good wine and food in the barracks have been prepared for you, whether you go or stay after this meal, everything is according to your own wishes." ”
"What? really?" a soldier burst into tears of emotion, he was not afraid of death, but he was worried, and it was this concern that made him have to fear death now.
"Of course it's true, untie them, everybody...... Please!"
Hong Yan made a clean up outside the prisoner camp, and the first person to stand up still didn't believe what was happening now, so he slapped himself hard.
A piercing pain came, and he realized that he had not woken up, that is, it was not a dream.
"Thank you...... Thank you ......."
With the first one, there was naturally a second, and they walked towards the center of the barracks under the leadership of a kind of soldier, and when the last person left, there was only Shen Mingyang left here.
He stared at Hong Yan and asked, "Why?"
Hong Yan smiled faintly and said, "Because you guys don't have much use here!"
His words made Shen Mingyang stunned, and at the same time, he was even more puzzled, but he didn't say anything, turned around and left this place with the large army, he had already let down all his guard, because if the Ling Clan's military camp really wanted to do something to them, there would be no need to go through such a lot of trouble.
Xu Guang was puzzled, "General Hong, do you think he will guess ......?"
Hong Yan said, "It's the same whether you guess it or not, the current state of the Xuancang Empire is an ironclad fact, and the kind of obstacle in their hearts will not change because these words come out of my mouth." ”
In fact, there is a more important point, Hong Yan did not say, why the army of the Xuancang Empire did not move in three directions, because they had to guard the ancient battlefield.
Isn't the value of the ancient battlefield much higher than the value of this army of more than 10,000 captives, if they rashly save people or attack desperately, in case the Hidden Dragon Empire takes out the watchman's hole cards and fights with them, it will not be cost-effective.
Therefore, it is reasonable that the army of the Xuancang Empire must be stationed in place, and it is impossible to rashly attack for the sake of more than 10,000 prisoners.
Why did he secretly poison Ling Aotian, but he didn't do anything to the Ling clan's military camp, because this stalemate situation is exactly what the Xuancang Empire is willing to see.
"It's a pity that these more than 10,000 captives are only afraid of ......"
"There is no way, war, sacrifice is inevitable. ”
Hong Yan's answer was a little ruthless, but this is indeed war, once it will be successful, where there is war, there must be a place where blood is shed, this strategy has just begun, and sacrifice is only the first step.
This meal, Shen Mingyang and they were very full, although it didn't taste so fragrant, after all, the scene in the projection was close in front of them, who could eat it?
But they had to eat, because only when they had eaten and drunk enough did they have the strength to go back and see if the scene in the projection was true or false.
But in fact, there is no need to go back to confirm at all, they already know in their hearts that they can't fake it, if it's fake, how can Hong Yan let them go back so at no cost?
Although they have admitted this fact, Shen Mingyang still has to go back, their relatives and family members are all in the empire, how can they not care?
Besides, Shen Mingyang also wanted to personally ask Ma Yiwu, with such a powerful backup army in hand, why didn't he save them?
"Everyone, this trip ...... I also hope that you can disperse and hide, after all, just let you go like this, many people in the barracks are not convinced!" Watching one captive after another leave, Yun Feixue exhorted loudly.
"We know, thank you for your magnanimity. Shen Mingyang saluted with his fists and left the Ling clan camp without looking back.
"You ...... Shape up or ship out. Hong Yan's voice was as low as a mosquito.
The mighty army of captives was just let go without leaving behind, and many people didn't understand it, but Hong Yan didn't need them to understand either.
"Wait......"
Suddenly, a thunderous shout resounded through the sky from the gate of the barracks, and then, I saw Dongfang Qian leading several masters and a team of soldiers into the barracks.
Dongfang Qian glanced at the enemy prisoners who were just about to walk out of the barracks and said, "Hong Yan, you are so bold, you actually let the prisoners leave, this is tantamount to letting the tiger return to the mountain, what are your intentions?"
Hong Yan's face changed slightly, after all, the person who came was the prince, and the only thing he could do as a courtier was to obey orders, and the third prince was not just here at this time, and things didn't seem to be as smooth as he imagined.
"Your Highness, it is useless for these more than 10,000 captives to stay in the barracks, and besides, they still have to consume food, grass and food every day, so we have to let them leave this place. ”
Hong Yan's mood was a little apprehensive, he knew that it was difficult to prevaricate this reason, but now he had to find a suitable reason to explain.
"It doesn't work, the barracks are encamped, the weapons are forged, the houses are built, and all of this is useless, and I will go back to your prisoner camp!"
The third prince shouted, Shen Mingyang suddenly turned his pleading gaze to Hong Yan, and the captives who were full of joy just now instantly fell into the abyss.
Although they didn't know who the person who spoke was, they could see that the entire Ling Clan's military camp was so respectful to him, and they didn't have to think about it to know that his identity must not be so simple.
"This ...... Your Highness, the words have already been spoken, and we ...... You can't be untrustworthy......" Hong Yan said with a difficult face.
"Why, don't you listen to what this prince says?" Dongfang Qian's eyes were as sharp as a knife.
After all, he is in the blood of the royal family, and that invisible coercion makes everyone pale and dare not look up.
Of course, the prince had to listen to what he said, but there was no need for these prisoners to stay in the barracks. ”
Just when Hong Yan and the others were in a dilemma, they only heard a voice behind them, and Yun Feixue walked over unhurriedly.
Unlike others, in the face of the aggressiveness of the Three Princes, he didn't seem to have the slightest feeling, let alone the respectful attitude of others to the Three Princes.
"Yun Feixue, this is a prisoner of the enemy, more than 10,000 people, you let the tiger return to the mountain like this, if my father knows this news, no matter what your surname is, I believe that he will definitely not spare you. Dongfang Qian didn't entangle Yun Feixue's rudeness, he instead moved out of Dongfang Jianxiong at this time in an attempt to put pressure on Yun Feixue.
