The strength of the Mozambican army became less and less, from the first 100000 to 80000, and from 80000 to 60000. By noon, the strength of the Mozambican army was less than 50000.
Until this time, the Mozambican army commander Zhang Yan didn''t think of how to restrain the heavy cavalry of the wind country.
It''s useless to embrace Buddha''s feet on the battlefield. If you haven''t done detailed and systematic research on the heavy cavalry in advance, it''s impossible to think of the way to solve it only by adapting to the situation on the battlefield.
Seeing that his side was about to be annihilated, none of the 100000 soldiers would survive. Finally, Zhang Yan bit his teeth and his heart crossed. He ordered him to go on, raise a white flag and surrender to the wind army.
As the commander of the army, surrender is naturally a great humiliation, but he can''t gamble the lives of tens of thousands of his soldiers for his honor and disgrace. He has been defeated in this battle. If he continues to fight, he will only increase casualties.
Now Qi Heng is playing in the interest. Suddenly, he sees that the Mozambican army has raised the white flag and abandoned the resistance. Even if he is unwilling, he can only order the whole army to suspend the attack and accept the surrender of Mozambican troops.
At the end of the first battle, the casualties of the two armies of Fengmo were very heavy. The casualties on the side of Fengjun were mainly concentrated in the directly subordinate army, nearly 20000 people. Although the result of this battle was a complete victory for Feng Jun, Hu Xia was not happy.
If there were no Ninth Army to join the war, relying only on the 50000 directly under his command would certainly not be the result in the end. I''m afraid that the whole army, including himself, would have to die in the hands of the Mozambican army.
Before this war, Hu Xia was still complacent and arrogant. After this war, Hu Xia''s confidence was greatly hit. He also realized that although his spirit and martial arts were strong, his ability to unify troops in war was far from enough!
The Ninth Army certainly contributed to the victory of the wind army in this war, but the greatest contribution was the wind army that had previously mixed into the Mozambican camp. This group of wind troops played a vital role at the critical moment. As a result, 100000 Mozambican troops who went out of the camp to fight back were locked out of the camp. They could not retreat or escape, and eventually the whole army was destroyed. Even Tang Yin, who had some complaints about Xiao MuQing, had to admire his foresight after listening to the war report. It was surprising to bury such a strange soldier inside the Mozambican army in advance.
When giving rewards for meritorious deeds, Tang Yin first rewarded this group of wind troops disguised as Mo Jun, rewarded their master general with 1000 liang of gold, granted the title of viscount, rewarded the soldiers under him with 100 liang of silver, and recorded great achievements. Then, Tang Yin rewarded Qi Heng, Xiao MuQing and Hu Xia respectively.
The people were naturally full of joy and smiles when they were rewarded. Only Hu Xia was unhappy and felt that he was really ashamed of the king''s reward. After all, he not only made no contribution in this war, but also made mistakes. It was precisely because of his improper command that he nearly buried 50000 generals and soldiers directly under him.
Of course, Tang Yin also saw his discomfort, but he didn''t say much. No one is born to be able to fight. No matter how excellent a general is, he is honed a little by actual combat. It may be a good thing to let Hu Xia learn a lesson and eliminate his pride this time.
After the reward for meritorious service, Tang Yin ordered Zhang Yan, the commander of Mo Jun, to come up. Throughout the war, there was no proper place for Zhang Yan''s command, but he was unlucky. He met the Ninth Army and was betrayed by his insiders who had been inserted into Mo camp.
If possible, Tang Yin also hopes to use such talents for his own use.
Seeing that Zhang Yan was pushed into the Chinese Army''s account, Tang Yin deliberately frowned, pointed to the bodyguards on the left and right, and shouted, "General Zhang can be regarded as a distinguished guest of the king. Untie General Zhang quickly!"
"No need!" Zhang Yan is a man who has seen the world. As soon as Tang Yin spoke, he guessed what he was thinking. He stood below, raised his head, straightened his waist, and said in a loud voice, "I''m not greedy for life and fear of death to surrender to the Feng army, but I just can''t bear to watch my brothers die in vain. If his Highness the wind king is really a hero, I''ll be happy next, and I''ll feel the great kindness and virtue of the wind king under the nine springs!"
Yo! This is a tough guy! The wind generals on both sides of the tent nodded secretly. Although Zhang Yan is not a famous general in Mozambique, he still has a set of skills in unifying troops and fighting, and his loyalty to Mozambique is also admirable.
Before Tang Yin could speak, Qi Heng was already laughing. He stepped forward and stood still in front of Zhang Yan, Said with a smile: "General Zhang, as the saying goes, a man who knows the current affairs is a hero! Shao Fang is fatuous, cruel and unkind, and anyone who follows him will come to no good end in the end. Qi saw this clearly, so he turned to the wind Kingdom early and obeyed the orders of the king. Now he is the commander of the first army. I think general Zhang''s ability is no worse than Qi''s. Now the opportunity is in front of him, general Zhang But don''t miss it. Why not follow Qi and serve my king together? "
Zhang Yan hasn''t seen Qi Heng. I heard that he claimed to be Qi and was born in Mo country. He has guessed his identity. After listening to his words, Zhang Yan laughed on his back and laughed for a long time. Then he stopped laughing, spit at Qi hengpei, and sneered: "you traitor and traitor who dare to speak shamelessly in front of this general, do you deserve it?! even if this general is torn to pieces and put into the oil pot, he will be ashamed to be with you and other villains!"
His angry scolding was not merciful at all. Qi Heng''s face turned red and white. The wind generals from the surrounding wind country laughed in their hearts and praised Zhang Yan''s scolding.
Qi Heng is not a man of the wind, but he is in charge of the ninth legion with the strongest combat power in the wind country. How can he not be hated by others, especially those wind generals born in the wind country, who want Qi Heng to collapse early.
He looked down at the spit on his chest armor, his horizontal eyebrows gradually stood up, and his eyes became red with blood. In the wind country, the wind people dare not humiliate him like this. How can Zhang Yan dare to treat him like this?
Without warning, he waved his hand fiercely, took out his sword around his waist, and the blade reached Zhang Yan''s throat. His face was ferocious and gnashing his teeth, he said, "give you face, you don''t want face! Believe it or not, I''ll chop you now!"
Zhang Yan simply closed his eyes and was completely at ease to die. At this time, Tang Yin pondered after the handsome case.
Qi Heng was shocked. He quickly put down his sword, turned back and arched his hands to Tang Yin and said, "king, this thief humiliates the last general, just like humiliating the king. It''s abominable and worthy of death. I hope the king orders to kill the thief immediately!"
Tang Yin only showed a little love for Zhang Yan, which was far from necessary. Seeing Zhang Yan''s firm attitude, he decided to give up. He asked for the last time, "General Zhang, are you really determined not to lower my wind?"
"That''s right! I''m a mortal, and I''m also a ghost. I''ll repay my king''s kindness with my death. I''ll die without regret and hope Wang Chengquan will succeed." Zhang Yan still closed his eyes and said in a loud voice.
"Your Majesty, this thief is stubborn and can''t stay." Qi Heng hated Zhang Yan and tried to add fuel and vinegar.
Tang Yin nodded and said reluctantly, "since general Zhang is so loyal to Mo country, it''s not good for me to force others." As he spoke, he turned his eyes, looked at Qi Heng, and said leisurely, "Qi Heng, general Zhang will be handled by you. After all, you are both Mo people. Whether you let general Zhang or stay is up to you."
On the surface, his words are very generous. In fact, they are tantamount to sentencing Zhang Yan to death. Qi Heng has always been small-minded and has a small stomach. Just now Zhang Yan abused him in public, how could he give Zhang Yan a way to live? If the latter can die happily in his hand, it will be a good end.
Sure enough. After hearing Tang Yin''s words, Qi Heng was overjoyed. He first turned back and glanced at Zhang Yan with a smile, then bowed to Tang Yin and said, "thank you, king!"
The fourth camp, which was heavily defended by the Mozambican army, was finally occupied by the wind army, including its chief General Zhang Yan. 100000 troops were destroyed, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Mozambican army in Panling. The military strength was suddenly reduced from more than 300 to more than 200000, which was completely inferior to the wind army.
However, through this battle, Tang Yin also saw that the Mo army''s camp in Panling was really not easy to fight. This time, with the help of his own insiders, he easily won, but there was no own insiders in the enemy camp behind. If he wanted to attack, his own losses would be great.
He summoned all the generals and asked if there was any other way to bypass Panling. Xiao MuQing and Zuo Shuang shook their heads and said, "in Zeping County, if you want to cross Panling, there is only one way. If you want to bypass Panling, you have to go to Surabaya or Tianyang County, and these two counties are under the control of Mo army. If you want to go to these two counties, you have to start from scratch, so the plan formulated by the former military administration hall will be null and void."
Tang Yin''s heart cooled after listening. It seems that it is impossible to choose to bypass Panling now.
He murmured thoughtfully, "since we can''t get around, we have to fight hard, but what can we do to make our army not only pay heavy losses, but also destroy the Mo army in Panling?"
"There''s only one way!" Xiao MuQing said: "the king ordered the hundred war army to retreat and attack Panling. At that time, our army will attack Panling on both sides, making it difficult for the Mozambican army to finish, and then we can easily win!"
Tang Yin''s eyes brightened, which is a good way! But on second thought, he frowned again and said, "with Panling as a barrier, how can my orders reach the hundred war army?"
As soon as he spoke, Aijia stood up and said confidently, "don''t worry, your majesty. Let the last general do it."
"Can you do it?" Tang Yin raised her eyebrows in disbelief.
Aijia smiled and said, "the king still remembers those new subordinates who will be recruited at the end of the year. They not only can train eagles, but also are Orion origin. They are good at climbing mountains and mountains, don''t follow the official path, avoid the Mo army camp, and cross the Panling from among the mountains. It''s not difficult for them."
