Chapter 717

After Zhou Changwei escaped the remnants of the Sky Eagle Army, he was alone after all, but he was facing tens of thousands of soldiers of the Ning Army, his fists were invincible with four hands, and he was covered in iron and how many nails could he break?

At the end of the battle, the corpses in the city gate cave had been piled up, and the Ning army outside had to drag the corpses inside out first if they wanted to rush to kill the nearest people

At this time, Zhou Chang's strength and aura have been exhausted, even the spirit armor and spirit soldiers can no longer be maintained, up and down his body, there are no less than thirty big openings, even so, he stood in the city gate hole and did not fall, when the Ning army outside rushed to kill recently, he could still carry a gun to fight, and when the Ning army outside released arrows, he could still lift the body to make an arrow shield......

Zhou Chang's delay slowed down the pursuit of the Ning army by nearly an hour, and won a lot of time for the smooth escape of the Sky Eagle Army.

In the end, Zhou Chang, who ran out of oil and dried up, died under the chaotic blades of the Ning army, and the Ning army's operation to pursue and kill the remnants of the Sky Eagle Army also failed.

In this battle, the Feng Army was defeated, completely defeated, and also defeated in a mess, the 60,000 Heavenly Eagle Army, and finally fled back to Hexi County, only 10,000 people remained, and the two vanguard officers sent by Tang Yin to the Heavenly Eagle Army finally only came back.

50,000 soldiers were lost in Daiyun City, it can be said that Tang Yin has never suffered such a fiasco on land since he started his army, and he did not need Situ Qi to enter the Chinese military tent to see him, Tang Yin had personally 'greeted' out of the camp.

When the embarrassed and disgraced Situ Qi saw Tang Yin outside the camp, he was in tears, and he knelt on the ground from afar, using his knees as his feet, and sucked his mouth while crawling forward, wailing: "King, the last general is incompetent...... The last general is incompetent......"

Tang Yin looked at Situ Qi expressionlessly, in fact, his body was trembling with anger, his fists were clenched tightly, and he didn't even feel his nails digging deep into his flesh.

He let Situ Qi enter Xiaoling County and come back after the defeat, but he never expected Situ Qi to defeat him so completely, 60,000 soldiers, only 10,000 people came back, just this battle, it is equivalent to losing the number of the Sky Eagle Army, and the morale of his entire army has also fallen into a trough.

Seeing Situ Qi crawl in front of him without warning, Tang Yin lifted his leg, kicked on Situ Qi's shoulder, and asked in a cold voice: "The soldiers of the whole army are dying, what are you doing when you come back......?" Why don't you die with your fallen brothers!"

"Great King......" Situ Qi couldn't even say the words to ask Tang Yin for mercy at this time, his head was on the ground, as if he weighed a thousand catties, and he couldn't lift it, so he watched the big beads of water dripping on the soil.

Looking at him more and feeling annoyed, Tang Yin raised his head, pinched his waist with both hands, walked back a few steps in front of him, and then shouted left and right: "Come on! Drag Situ Qi out and cut him off!"

Situ Qi had a premonition that there would be such a result on the way back, and he was not surprised at all, he slowly raised his head, looked at Tang Yin, and arched his hand and said: "The last general is worthy of the king's trust, and he is willing to die to receive the punishment, I only ask the king to be kind to the wife and children of the last general's family, and the last general is also grateful to the king for his grace under the nine springs......"

"Do you dare to tell me about the conditions?" Tang Yin walked up to Situ Qi and wanted to kick him a few times, but seeing him crying with tears streaming down his face, he was extremely pitiful, and put down his lifted foot again, waved his hand again and again in disappointment, and said: "Drag it down, drag it down!"

The guards on both sides don't care what your identity is, the king has orders, and they have to carry them out. The guard raised Situ Qi's arm, and said with apology in his tone, "General Situ, offended!" As he spoke, the two of them walked down with Situ Qi, ready to behead him.

The generals around Tang Yin, including Gu Yue and Wuying, all felt that it was not a pity for Situ Qi to die, he suffered such a big defeat, resulting in such a big loss, and only killing him alone, and not implicating him in the nine clans was already cheap. But Qiu Zhen suddenly said at this time: "Wait!"

The two guards hurriedly stopped and turned to look at Qiu Zhen.

Qiu Zhen bowed to Tang Yin and said: "King, although General Situ was defeated, according to the battle report, this battle was not all General Situ's fault, but the main general of the Ning army was too cunning, and used the bitter trick of sacrificing 3,000 soldiers to cover Shi Jie's fraudulent surrender. ”

Qiu Zhen's words moved Situ Qi to tears again, but he still didn't dare to say a word of begging for mercy at this time, so he could only look at Tang Yin with his eyes and wait for his fate.

The anger and resentment in Tang Yin's heart could be dispelled by Qiu Zhen's words. He glanced at Qiu Zhen and said angrily: "Defeat is defeat, why do you need those excuses? If this battle is replaced by Ziying, he will definitely be able to see through the tricks of the Ning people!"

Qiu Zhense said: "Yes, if General Ziying is allowed to go, our army will not have such a defeat, and it is precisely the king who makes General Ziying's army, and it is also the king who promotes General Situ to the commander of the Sky Eagle Army, and it is the king who let the Sky Eagle Army enter Xiaoling County to fight, now, does the king still think that the fault is on General Situ alone?"

Tang Yin raised his eyebrows, turned to look at Qiu Zhen, and asked in a condensed voice, "Qiu Zhen, what do you mean?

Qiu Zhen lowered his head and said: "The king has always been a master who dares to be a master and has the courage to take responsibility, because of this, even if the soldiers are tired and tired, they are willing to fight with the king in the north and south." ”

After Tang Yin heard this, he secretly took a breath, yes, if this defeat is Situ Qi's fault alone, he is indeed wronged, at least he has to bear the fault of employing people. If you want to punish Situ Qi, you should also be punished.

Thinking of this, his face softened a little, looked at Situ Qi, was silent for a long time, and said: "What Qiu Xiang said is reasonable, but Situ Qi's capital crime can be avoided, and the living crime is unforgivable, and he will be severely punished with eighty military sticks, and he will be recorded as a major demerit once, and his military rank will be reduced by two levels, and he will not be promoted within three years!"

As long as people are alive, it doesn't matter how they are punished. Situ Qi knelt down again excitedly, kowtowed to Tang Yin again and again, and shouted loudly: "Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your grace!"

Tang Yin ignored him, turned around, faced the soldiers behind him, and suddenly drew his sword and put it on his shoulder.

Seeing this, everyone was startled, instinctively approached forward, and at the same time exclaimed, "King?"

Tang Yin grabbed a strand of hair, waved his sword, the hair was cut off, he raised the broken hair, and said loudly: "The defeat of this battle, this king has a bad mistake, he is ashamed of the fallen soldiers, and he is ashamed of the high hopes of the whole army and the people of the whole country. Today, this king hereby swears that he will wipe out all the Ning people in Xiaoling County, avenge the soldiers who died in Daiyun City, and use a hundred times the blood of the Ning people to pay tribute to the souls of the soldiers in the sky!"

Hearing this, all the generals and soldiers present knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "Calm down the thieves, take revenge!"

The originally low morale of the Feng army was replaced by a raging fire in an instant, and Tang Yin also used the long-standing hatred of the Feng people towards the Ning people to boost the morale of the whole army. Of course, he will undoubtedly make Xiaoling County bleed in the future, but he can't manage so much now, fighting a war depends on hard work, if the morale is gone, how can he kill the enemy on the battlefield?

And Tang Yin never cared about the life or death of people who had nothing to do with him.

This defeat of Xiaoling County was a big lesson for Tang Yin, it is not advisable to change the commander of the whole army, and it is even more undesirable to change the generals in battle.

The Sky Eagle Army, which only has more than 10,000 people left, is actually dead, how to reorganize in a short period of time, how to revitalize the Sky Eagle Army, Tang Yin will not.

He asked Qiu Zhen for advice, and the latter smiled helplessly, and replied to Tang Yin: He Qiu Zhen is okay as a copywriter and a big strategic strategy, but as for how to reorganize a legion, he is a complete layman and does not have such great ability.

Hearing this reply, which was more like a cool word, Tang Yin's nose was almost crooked, Qiu Zhen can't do it, so who else can do it under his command now? Use Gu Yue? He, the nominal commander, doesn't have much real ability at all, and he uses Cheng Jin, Lotte, and Ai Jia...... That's even worse.

Seeing Tang Yin glaring at him and panting, Qiu Zhen smiled and said, "Reorganize the Heavenly Eagle Army, there is a ready-made person in our army, why should the king bother about this matter?"

"Who?"

"Ziying!" Qiu Zhen said: "The Heavenly Eagle Army was originally created by General Ziying and brought it to grow, but now it has been beaten back to its original form by the 'useless' Situ Banner, and the king should naturally ask General Ziying to reorganize." ”

He deliberately added the word 'useless', which was ironic about Tang Yin. Tang Yin's old face turned red, and he said with a wry smile: "Reactivate Ziying? It was me who removed him from his post in the first place......

Qiu Zhen shrugged his shoulders and said, "If the king can't pull this face, then simply don't forget about the Sky Eagle Army, once it's white, Ziying can never be hired." ”

Although his words were peaceful and calm, Tang Yin might have heard the anger in Qiu Zhen's words.

You don't need to ask to know that Qiu Zhen must be angry about his abandonment of Ziying.

Tang Yin also regretted it now, regretting it so much that his intestines were almost green, he laughed dryly and said, "When did I pay attention to face?" Qiu Zhen, you go back to the camp on my behalf and invite General Ziying over!"

Qiu Zhenle was happy and said: "Ziying was removed by the king at the beginning, and now if you want to invite General Ziying, naturally the king should also come forward, so that it can be considered sincere." ”

Tang Yin frowned and said, "Ziying's temper is too stubborn, let me come forward, I'm afraid he won't allow it!"

The Heavenly Eagle Army is like Ziying's child, and today it was hit so hard, Ziying is more anxious than anyone else, how could it not be allowed? Qiu Zhen thought so in his heart, but he would not say so, he sighed helplessly, and said: "So the king must be sincere! In addition, the king should also bring some gifts. ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Tang Yin nodded and muttered, "You should prepare gold and silver as an apology......
