The Southern Barbarian army threw away its armor and fled to the east under the leadership of Meng Huo.

The Iron Eagle Legion and the Eastern Barbarian Army are mainly cavalry, and it is naturally not difficult to pursue, while the Southern Barbarian Army has infantry that specializes in dealing with cavalry, but now the phalanx is in chaos, and the three-zhang long spears are discarded on the ground at will, and there are no horses, so they can only run on two legs.

Of course, two legs are not as good as four legs, even if it is a martial artist of the Xuanguang Realm, he will hold on for more than ten minutes at most, and he will be caught up by the pursuers, and then he will fall to the ground with a knife.

Cao Ziang commanded his subordinates to copy two breads, and he himself led the army to the front, then turned the horse's head, formed a pocket formation with his subordinates, and wrapped Meng Huo's 30,000 heavy armored infantry with dumplings.

"If you surrender and don't kill, those who resist will die. Cao Ziang shouted loudly.

Soldiers, look at me, I look at you, throw away the weapons in your hands, I am afraid that these Han soldiers will regret it, and when they put down their weapons, they will kill them all, don't throw them away, and I am afraid that the other party will destroy themselves in minutes.

At this time, Meng Zhun led his generals to arrive and hugged his fist at Cao Ziang: "General Cao, these people should be handed over to Xiao Wang to deal with!"

Cao Ziang glanced at him and said, "The subordinates of the Eastern Barbarian King are not fast in pursuing the enemy, but they are really fast when they receive the prisoners. ”

Meng Zhun Lao's face flushed, he wanted to get angry but restrained himself, he knew that although Cao Ziang was only a partial general, he was the real leader of the 200,000 Iron Eagle Army.

"It's okay to hand it over to the Eastern Barbarian King, it's obvious that these people don't trust this general, so I'll leave it to you. Cao Ziang pretended to be generous.

After speaking, he said to his men: "Let's go, continue to pursue the enemy, and expand the results of the battle." ”

"Yes!"

After Cao Ziang left, Meng Zhun glared at his back angrily, then squeezed out a smile, and said to the trembling captive: "I am Meng Zhun, the king of the Eastern Barbarians, many of you should know me, I promise with my personality, as long as you surrender obediently, this king guarantees the safety of you and your family." Those who refuse to surrender die, including your family, no one wants to have good fruit to eat, give you a minute to think about it, and don't wait for it to expire!"

Soon some people threw down their weapons and surrendered, and everyone followed suit.

On the small dirt bag in the distance, Liu Yuying pouted and said: "Let this Meng Zhun get a big advantage again, our Han army is responsible for pursuing, he is responsible for receiving prisoners, and he doesn't need to contribute at all." ”

Ye Yunyang smiled and said: "He is good at receiving prisoners, and the barbarians trust him more and are not willing to surrender to our people, so you might as well let him take advantage of a few days first, just help us keep the items, and one day he will have to return them to us intact." ”

"Will it?" Liu Yuying expressed his doubts and said, "Will he not eat the meat that comes to his mouth?

"Spit it out for me how you eat it. Ye Yunyang said confidently.

Compared with the last time, Dongfang Yixue's attitude towards war has changed greatly, at least his expression can be the same as usual.

Several knights came down and told Tran Se Lai, about something.

Chen Shilai boarded the small earthen bag and said: "Gongzi, General Yin sent someone to send news that there was a riot in the royal court, and several major families and the followers before Meng Huo stormed the city gate. ”

Ye Yun raised his eyebrows and frowned slightly: "How is the situation?"

As early as when he decided to let Yin Falcon defend the city, he expected that such a thing would happen, those guys in the royal court would definitely not be willing to be ruled by the Han army, and when Meng Huo led the army south, he would definitely send people to contact him to discuss the rebellion and the matter of internal and external cooperation.

It's just that these people must not have imagined that Meng Huo's army was defeated so badly, and they stupidly launched a riot according to the previous agreement.

Chen Shilai replied: "General Yin has received your instructions, and has already prepared everything, the four city gates are still in our hands, eight or nine out of ten rioters have been killed on the spot, and most of those who are lucky enough to escape have their identities exposed, and General Yin ordered the arrest of people, and none of them can escape." When this group of people is caught, they will confess those hidden guys, and then they will be all caught. ”

Ye Yunyang nodded, Yin Falcon's work can still be reassured.

Chen Shilai said: "Someone came to ask how to deal with this group of people, and asked Gongzi to decide." ”

"Of course it's killing, there's no room for anything!" Ye Yunyang said coldly: "The reason why they dared to start a riot was because they didn't take the Han army seriously, and in the siege battle, there were not many barbarians who died under the Han saber, so they were so fearless." To deal with such people, only butcher knives and blood can make them feel afraid and never dare to make trouble again. ”

Chen Shilai raised his eyebrows: "But in this way, the reputation of our Han army can be ...... Also, haven't you always told the Eastern Barbarian King to be benevolent, wouldn't it be too cruel to suddenly kill the killer directly?"

Ye Yunyang shook his head: "Not at all! Those people dared to start a riot, which means that they are not of the same mind as us and Meng Zhun, such people do not need to be inspired, because we have already given them a chance before, and it is they who chose this path by themselves, no wonder others." Moreover, in troubled times, they need to be re-enacted, and with the truth that the hearts of people who are not of our race must be different, they are completely convinced only by fear, and there is no other way. ”

The reason why the explanation is so clear is because since Yin Falcon sent someone to ask, it shows that he has the same concerns as Chen Shilai, and to dispel Chen Shilai's concerns, it is for him to say the words to Yin Falcon as they are.

Chen Shilai nodded: "I understand, I'm going to let someone pass the word to General Yin." ”

In the evening of the same day, Ye Yunyang returned to the royal court, and obviously felt a smell of blood in the air.

Yin killed thousands of people in a single day, all of them beheaded in public, and then hung their heads in a conspicuous position in the city to deter others.

In the battle during the day, the Southern Barbarian King Menghuo lost more than 100,000 troops, and the casualties and captured people accounted for half of each other, and this battle can be described as a great victory. In particular, the performance of the Iron Eagle Legion was particularly outstanding, more than ninety percent of the 50,000 captives were due to them, and more than 20,000 enemies were killed, accounting for about seventy percent of the number of beheadings.

Meng Zhunle was bad, he suffered a lot of losses in the attack on Wang Ting, but after taking over Wang Ting's surrender army, the number of battle losses was basically equal, and now there are more than 50,000 people.

The main thing is that among this group of captives there was a fully equipped hoplite, as well as all kinds of ordnance and supplies necessary for the corps.

This is a strong force against cavalry, and as long as it is used properly, it will not be a problem to hold off twice the size of the enemy.

At the beginning, Meng Huo did not lose any money in order to build this army, and it was precisely because of the existence of this heavy infantry that he could remain undefeated under the repeated attacks of the East and West Barbarians.

Last time, Mengtu planted a heel in his hands, and this army played a great role.

And now, this team is full of people, how can Meng Zhun not be excited, and even feel his steps fluttering when he walks.

Because of the silence in joy, when he heard that the royal court had killed thousands of people in one day, he didn't take it seriously at all.

Ye Yunyang ordered the whole army to celebrate, inform the people of today's victory, and let Gong Cao record the generals who made military exploits, so that they could be rewarded for their merits in the future.

Because the Iron Eagle Army's performance was eye-catching enough, the soldiers couldn't wait to put their nostrils to the sky when they walked, with an unstoppable expression on their faces.

In this regard, Yin Ying was very angry, especially when he saw Cao Ziang's superior expression, he was even more angry, and he came to Ye Yunyang for his theory.

Ye Yunyang smiled and said: "Uncle Yin, the Iron Eagle Army is a strong force, this is an indisputable fact, if you send your Nanshan Army to fight today's battle, in all fairness, can you achieve such a big result? ”

Yin Falcon waved his hand and said: "I'm not jealous of their military exploits, but the attitude of Cao Ziang and others, just write the words 'immediately reinstate my official' on their faces, isn't it just a victory, as for cocking their tails to the sky? To put it bluntly, they are meritorious in this victory, but the main thing is that Yun Yang You commanded properly, and deceived Meng Huo to come to a two-sided attack, otherwise you will rely on the Iron Eagle Army's gang, and I don't know how many casualties will be caused." ”

Ye Yunyang put away his smile, through his observation of Cao Ziang these days, this person is indeed a problem, I thought that after beating him last time, he would be more restrained, but after less than two days, the old guy was completely revealed, on the surface he obeyed the boss's orders, but he complained in private, and he was not inferior many times.

Cao Ziang is like a person, he will never be grateful to anyone because of a little favor, Ye Yunyang let him go before, and he showed obedience, but because his behavior would affect the entire Iron Eagle Army, he was afraid that he would not be able to explain to the soldiers, so he had to give in.

was able to obey Ye Yunyang's orders before, because he had the heart to make meritorious contributions and wanted to be reinstated as soon as possible.

Now that he has military exploits, can he not his tail - get up!

"It seems that we have to find a chance to beat this Iron Eagle Army commander. Ye Yunyang said thoughtfully.

Yin Falcon slapped the table: "That's right! If you don't beat him, he will definitely not know the height of the sky, and the next time you give orders again, he will definitely obstruct and force you to reinstate him." ”

Ye Yunyang smiled meaningfully: "If he takes the initiative to find death, I will never be polite." Uncle Yin, you go to the Iron Eagle Army, take Gong Cao with you, read out everyone's merits, and don't forget to remind them that they will be rewarded for their merits in the future. ”

Yin Falcon was stunned for a moment, but he immediately understood, and said with a smile: "This is a good way, when the credit is announced, Cao Ziang's face will definitely be wonderful!"

It is undoubted that all the soldiers of the Iron Eagle Army have made contributions, but Cao Ziang, as a herald and partial general, has less obvious credit.

Merit by the number of decapitations?

The old guy was so preoccupied with commanding the overall situation that he was too lazy to do anything with the enemy's minions, occasionally wielding a knife to slash and kill, and would not disdain to dismount and cut off the enemy's head.

Say he's in command?

No kidding, from planning to implementation, this battle was all handled by Ye Yunyang, and even the attack order was issued by him, and it had nothing to do with Cao Ziang.

Besides, are you a small partial general, are you qualified to command? Not to mention that you are pointing fingers, you are already very face-saving.

The small credit is not worth it, and the big one has nothing to do with you, and his credit can be described as minimal.

As long as he has not been carried away, he will think of the deep meaning of reading the merits in public, withdraw his arrogant thoughts, and be conscientious is the right way.
