It was Shao Yu, the head of Xishan County, who knelt in front of the Mo army and pleaded guilty.
Seeing the situation clearly, Tang Yin ordered the whole army to stop moving forward, and then only took a few ministries to rush forward. He looked down at Shaoyu and asked, "who are you? Why are you kneeling here?"
Although Shao Yu has not seen Tang Yin, he has also heard some rumors. Coupled with the posture of many winds holding the moon to his stars, he has guessed Tang Yin''s identity.
Shao Yu knelt on the ground and didn''t move. He said loudly, "the sinner Shao Yu is here to wait for his Highness the king of the wind and ask his Highness for forgiveness."
"Oh?" It turns out that this person is Shao Yu. Tang Yin looked at him up and down for a while, smiled with crooked eyes and asked, "what is the crime of Lord Shao?"
"The sinner was deceived by Shao Fang and blocked his Highness''s King''s teacher. This is an unforgivable crime!" While speaking, Shao Yu knocked his head continuously, his forehead on the ground, and he didn''t dare to lift his head.
Strictly speaking, Li Sheng died in his hands. Tang Yin was furious about this and vowed to cut Shaoyu''s head. But now the situation is different. Shaoyu surrendered voluntarily and pleaded guilty in public. If he kills him again, it will appear that he is too small to convince the public.
Tang Yin sat on the horse and didn''t move for a long time. He didn''t speak. He lowered his head and his tiger eyes glittered. He just stared at Shaoyu who couldn''t afford to kneel down.
I don''t know how long it took. Even Shaoyu felt that he couldn''t keep his head. At this time, Tang Yin suddenly took a knife and waved it down. With the sound of the sand, the cold light flashed on Shaoyu.
Plop! Shao Yu felt a cold, biting cold blow from his back, and his strength seemed to be drained in an instant. His body was soft and limped to the ground, and beads of sweat as big as beans fell from his cheeks.
"It''s very important to know your mistakes and correct them. Since Lord Shao can really take refuge, he will write off all the past for his brother. I won''t blame you, but I will reward you a lot. Get up!" Tang Yin''s brilliant smile was replaced by Tang Jun''s smile.
Until this time, Shao Yu didn''t react. It turned out that Tang Yin didn''t cut himself with his knife, but just cut off the rope binding him. He screamed a fluke. Cai GUI taught himself to take the initiative to plead guilty. It was really effective. He cheered up, knelt down and kowtowed again, and said in a trembling voice, "Weichen... Thank you for your kindness not to kill!" With that, he knocked three heads in a row, and then he stood up from the ground trembling. At the same time, the Deputy generals behind Shaoyu shouted: "welcome the king into the city!"
Shao Jun and Cai GUI came out of the crowd of Mo Jun and came to Tang Yin. Shao Jun bowed and said, "Your Highness the wind king!"
Cai GUI knelt down to give a big gift and said respectfully, "I''ll see you, King Cai GUI!"
Tang Yin just nodded slightly, but did not look at Cai GUI. Her bright eyes stared at Shaojun.
Shao Jun felt his spine cold and his body cold in bursts. Tang Yin''s fierce eyes didn''t seem to be human, but more like wild animals. Shaojun was so frightened that he was at a loss. He didn''t know where he had offended Tang Yin. He peeked to the left and right. He saw that his companion Cai GUI had knelt on the ground, but he stood and saluted. Subconsciously, he also knelt to the ground and said again: "see... Your Highness the king of the wind!"
Seeing that he knelt down to salute like Cai GUI, Tang Yin''s eyes softened. With a smile, he turned down and dismounted, pretended to stretch out his hand to help Shaojun, and said with a smile: "Brother Shao, you and I are princes granted by the son of heaven. Why should we make such a big gift?!" That''s what he said, but he was very happy in his heart. He not only wanted Shaojun to understand who was the main and who was the auxiliary, but also wanted Shaoyu and the more than 200000 Mo troops who surrendered to understand that he was their real master and the one who had the power to kill them.
Tang Yin is not a saint. He also has the side of small people''s ambition and arrogance.
*After forcing Shaojun to surrender to himself in public, the other side turned around, looked at Cai GUI with a smile and nodded secretly. No wonder Cai song''s ability is mediocre, but the Cai family can have such a high reputation in Ningdi. I want to have something to do with CAI GUI.
He didn''t show a particularly happy look and said lightly, "Cai GUI, you did a good job this time."
Cai GUI didn''t dare to be vague at all. He quickly kowtowed to the king and said, "thank you for your praise! I trust the king''s great blessing that I can make a difference."
"Ha ha!" Tang Yin laughed at his words, patted him on the shoulder, raised his head and said, "get up!"
On the way to accompany Tang Yin into the city, Shao Yu was eager to show his loyalty. His mouth was like a continuous fire. He kept introducing the situation of Fengyang and Xishan county. In addition, he also mentioned that Han Zhong and Yuan Tian''s 150000 subordinates were now imprisoned in the military camp and asked Tang Yin how to deal with them.
Tang Yin thought a little and asked, "won''t the 150000 Mozambicans surrender?"
Shao Yu hurriedly said, "some are willing to surrender, while others are stubborn. I believe that as long as we take time, we will be able to persuade them all to surrender."
"So best." Tang Yin nodded and said, "I don''t want to kill innocent people indiscriminately. If Lord Shao can persuade all of them to surrender, he will bring these 150000 people under your command!"
Yo! Hearing this, Shao Yu''s eyes brightened. He thought Tang Yin would have to reduce his power even if he didn''t kill himself after he surrendered to Fengguo. Unexpectedly, Tang Yin was willing to increase his troops, which was too unexpected. Tang Yin''s order also made Shao Yu completely relieved. He knelt down excitedly and said in a trembling voice, "thank you for your trust in Weichen. Weichen is willing to lead a horse and pedal for the king and die forever!"
Tang Yin waved with a smile and said, "as I said, since Lord Shao is willing to give up, he is his own person. There is no need to be so formal and polite."
"Yes, yes, king! Remember!" Shao Yu nodded repeatedly.
It is reasonable to say that Shao Jun is the new king of Mo canonized by the emperor and the new master of Shao Yu, but Shao Yu ignores him at all. He just surrounds Tang Yin and tries his best to please.
Shaojun doesn''t mind this. Even he doesn''t think there''s anything wrong with Shaoyu''s move. Seeing that Shaoyu keeps flattering around Tang Yin, he is happy to be on one side. He''s glad that he has another ancestor to take refuge in Tang Yin. He''s no longer alone. Even if he is scolded as a traitor by Mo people in the future, Shaoyu will share it with him.
Xishan county has both natural dangers to defend and more than 300000 troops, but it surrendered to the wind army with less than 100000 people and bowed its head to be a minister. If you don''t look at the process, just look at the result of things, it can also be called a "miracle".
Tang Yinken gave Shaoyu the 150000 captured Mo troops at his disposal. It was not a hot idea, but a thoughtful idea. Let''s not mention it for the time being.
After the Fengjun led by Tang Yin entered Fengyang City, they were temporarily stationed and the whole army rested.
Two days later, a good report came from the rear. After besieging Yangchuan for two months, the flying dragon army under the command of Zuo Shuangsuo finally launched a fierce attack. The battle was extremely fierce. It was a positive contest between the tip of a needle and maimang. After two days and nights of fierce fighting, the flying dragon army finally opened a breakthrough in the north city of Yangchuan and successfully entered the city. However, the Mozambican army was also extremely tenacious. The city was broken and still refused to surrender. The main general Li Rong led the remnant to fight with the wind army in the city, but in the end, it was eroded by the wind army one by one because of the great difference in combat power between the two sides.
After a whole day of scuffle in the city, the Mozambican army led by Li Rong was destroyed, and even Li Rong himself died in the chaos. Although the Fengjun army won the battle, it also won miserably. More than half of the 200000 Feilong army were killed and injured, and even the establishment of five regiments was destroyed.
However, the victory of the battle of Yangchuan also made the Fengjun who went deep into Mozambique have no worries. Taking into account the Xishan county that just defected, the Fengjun has fully occupied three counties in Mozambique, namely Dongjiang, pengfeng and Xishan.
Tang Yin wrote back to commend the flying dragon army, and at the same time ordered Zuo Shuang to lead the troops to eliminate all the resistance forces in pengfeng and Dongjiang counties, so as to completely stabilize the situation in the two counties.
Because the local armies of Dongjiang and Peng Feng have long been wiped out by the wind army, and the remaining fish that have escaped from the net are no longer a climate. Even if the flying dragon army has suffered heavy losses in the battle of Yangchuan, it is enough to easily complete the task.
Soon after the success report of the battle of Yangchuan came, the intelligence of the plain army and the Huwei army came again. Before the Huwei army reached Jueqing mountain, the Mo army who heard the news took the initiative to retreat. The plain army trapped for many days was finally able to get out of trouble and join the Huwei army. Now it is stationed near Jueqing mountain, waiting for Tang Yin''s instructions.
The three counties of Mo state have been won continuously. Tang Yin is in high morale. After receiving the letter from the plain and Huwei armies, he immediately wrote back to the second army and continued to go south to attack Jinshi city and the central county.
Good things come in pairs. When Tang Yin was planning to go south from Xishan County, Ningdi reported good news again. The two legions of Sanshui army and Tianying army fought very smoothly in the eight counties of Ningnan. They defeated the Mozambican army three times in a row. They were as powerful as sharp knives, and now they are almost at the junction of Mozambican.
How can Tang Yin be unhappy when there are frequent reports of success on the two fronts? He has no worries about his command to the south, and aims directly at Anqiu County of Mozambique.
At present, the number of troops directly under Tang Yin is less than 100000, but according to the intelligence of Tianyan and underground network, the number of troops in Anqiu County is also small.
Anqiu is located at the junction of Mo and Yu, but it is not the place where Mo sent troops to Yu. The supply line of Mo army does not pass through Anqiu. However, if Anqiu is captured, the wind army can directly threaten Surabaya.
Surabaya county is the base camp of Mo state sending troops to Yu state. A large number of recruits, grain and grass and materials are stored in Surabaya. The supply line of Mo army going deep into Yu state also takes Surabaya as a springboard. Surabaya is threatened, which is equivalent to the threat of 500000 central army of Mo state going deep into Yu state.
Tang Yin does not intend to save the jade state, but will not give up the opportunity to put pressure on Mo state, which is the main reason why he chose to attack Anqiu.
