Chapter 579
In Ming Xiaotian's view, it was a very extraordinary thing for his dignified general to take the initiative to admit defeat and beg Feng Jun in a low voice. However, when Zhan Hu heard this, he raised the corner of his mouth and sneered silently, and he raised his voice He said: "Your Excellency, you should say this to my king. Read the full text!" As he spoke, he reached out and clasped Ming Xiaotian's arm and said: "Your Excellency, please come with me!" After saying this, he didn't care whether Ming Xiaotian agreed or not. Dragging him towards his own camp.
Ming Xiaotian was shocked at first, and then shouted: "Our soldiers are still trapped in the sea of fire, please let them out quickly!"
"Hehe!" Zhan Hu gave a weird laugh and said, "My king has already given an order to kill all the troops surrendered by Ning State, leaving no one behind!"
This sentence made Ming Xiaotian's head buzz. Even if he was unsentimental and greedy for life, he could not ignore the two hundred thousand soldiers in the sea of fire. He was stunned for three seconds, and then screamed He let out a strange scream, waved his arms, and shook off Zhan Hu's palm. Then, he rushed towards Zhan Hu with his teeth and claws, and at the same time shouted: "I will fight with you and other wind thieves!"
Not to mention that he had lost his mind at this time, even at his peak, it was impossible for him to block Zhan Hu's moves with his unparalleled martial arts. The latter sneered and stretched out his hand, thrust forward and grabbed Ming Xiaotian's neck like lightning. Then he lifted it up and raised it above his head. Zhan Hu said: "You are asking for trouble, you can't blame me." "Yes." As he spoke, he slammed Ming Xiaotian in his hand to the ground.
thump!
Zhan Hu's heavy throw with brute force shattered all of Ming Xiaotian's spiritual armor, and even a big hole was made in the ground by his body. Ming Xiaotian didn't even say a word and fell unconscious on the spot. Zhan Hu lowered himself, grabbed his armor, and dragged him back to his camp like a dead dog.
As soon as Zhan Hu came back, the Feng Army started shooting arrows again, knocking down the Ning Army who poured out of the camp one by one.
Throwing the unconscious Ming Xiaotian in front of Jiang Fan, Zhan Hu smiled triumphantly and said, "General Jiang Fan, what do you think? It's easy to capture this thief!"
Jiang Fan nodded his shoulders with a smile, glanced down at the unconscious Ming Xiaotian, and said lightly: "General Zhan Hu can send this person to the king to ask for merit!"
Zhan Hu was stunned for a moment, and then he grinned widely. In any case, Ming Xiaotian was also the general of Ning State. Capturing him by himself would be a great achievement! He cupped his hands gratefully to Jiang Fan, then mentioned Ming Xiaotian and walked straight to Tang Yin.
When Tang Yin saw Zhan Hu carrying Ming Xiaotian over, he was very happy. He put his hands on his hands and laughed, praising: "Zhan Hu is indeed my mighty general." As he spoke, he said to the guards on his left and right: "Get him Awake."
"Yes!" The guards agreed. Not long after, they brought over a bucket of water and poured it on Ming Xiaotian's head.
"Ah..." Ming Xiaotian groaned and slowly woke up. He felt as if his body was falling apart. It took him a while to slowly regain his breath. At this time, he opened his eyes and saw that there was wind all around him. Everyone was glaring at him with cold expressions. Ming Xiaotian shivered and screamed subconsciously.
"Is General Ming awake?"
At this time, a soft voice of questioning came from behind him. Ming Xiaotian struggled to turn over and sit up. When he looked back, he was facing a pair of piercing tiger eyes. Behind him sits a young man who is not very old, wearing a black and red brocade suit that matches each other and fits well. Looking at his face, the young man has a handsome appearance, delicate features, a natural smile, and is full of kindness. Among the many wind troops , he is not the most powerful or scary one, but the feminine and evil aura emanating from him makes him completely different from the people around him, making it difficult for people to ignore his existence.
"You...are you..." Ming Xiaotian asked slightly stuttering.
"I'm Tang Yin." The young man in Jinyi replied calmly.
ah? Tang Yin? ! Ming Xiaotian's body shook violently, and then, the body that was originally sitting on the ground immediately changed from sitting to kneeling. He swallowed and spoke calmly: "The defeated general Ming Xiaotian, please see His Highness the Wind King!"
At this time, Ming Xiaotian did not dare to be rude at all. After all, his life and the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command were in other people's hands.
"Haha!" Tang Yin chuckled, waved his hand and said: "General Ming, there is no need to be polite, get up!"
"Thank you, King Feng!" Ming Xiaotian didn't expect Tang Yin to be so polite to him, so he bravely stood up tremblingly.
Tang Yin casually picked up the wine cup next to him, handed it to Ming Xiaotian, and said with a smile: "General Ming was shocked just now. There is wine here, General Ming calms down first!"
Looking at the wine cup handed over by Tang Yin, Ming Xiaotian neither accepted it nor accepted it. He froze on the spot, neither speaking nor making any move. Tang Yin raised his eyebrows and asked calmly: "What? General Ming thinks my Fengjiu is not as good as your Ningjiu?"
"No, no, no! I never meant this!" Ming Xiaotian did not dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly took a step forward and carefully took the wine cup handed by Tang Yin. He lowered his head and looked at the wine in it, and felt heartbroken. Heng, he gritted his teeth, raised his head, and poured all the wine in the glass into his stomach.
Fengjiu is much pungent than Ningjiu. After only one cup, Ming Xiaotian's face turned red. He wanted to cough but didn't dare, so he could only swallow the spit. After calming down for a while, he wiped the corner of his mouth and listened to the screams from the Feng Army camp on the side that shook the earth. They were the screams of the Ning Army soldiers who were burned by the fire.
Listening to the continuous cries and howls, Ming Xiaotian's heart was as sharp as a knife. He cupped his hands towards Tang Yin and said: "I have surrendered to your army. Our soldiers have surrendered with high white flags. Please raise your noble hand and release the camp." Lieutenant generals, please find a way out, there are still 200,000 soldiers in the camp..."
Speaking of this, Ming Xiaotian shed tears.
As if Tang Yin didn't hear what he was saying, he turned around, took a roast leg of lamb from the tray in the hands of a guard behind him, and smiled at Ming Xiaotian: "After fighting for so long, General Ming must also be hungry. Come on, come on, have something to eat!”
Ming Xiaotian couldn't think about eating now. When he saw the roasted leg of lamb in Tang Yin's hand, the tragic scene of the Ning Army soldiers being burned alive by the fire and the flaming red armor scalded them to death immediately came to his mind. He didn't wait. When he opened his mouth to speak, he vomited loudly.
Tang Yin had been in high tension all day and had not eaten anything. Now that the outcome of the two sides was determined, his tense nerves could finally relax, and he felt hungry. He was just about to eat something. Ming Xiaotian But she vomited in front of him, and Tang Yin suddenly lost his appetite.
He stood up, waved his hand fiercely, and threw the roasted lamb leg in his hand on Ming Xiaotian's face. At the same time, the bright and gentle smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a cold evil smile, and he said quietly : "I can tell you the truth. You, as well as the Ning army under your command, will all be executed! Originally, Gu Nian, you are the general of Ning State, and I want you to be a dead ghost on the road. You don't know what is good for you, so just give up." It’s so weird!”
As soon as Tang Yin finished speaking, the guards on both sides swarmed up, pushed Ming Xiaotian to the ground, and dragged him out a few steps. Then, the executioner stood behind him holding a ghost-headed knife.
Ming Xiaotian woke up like a dream. It turned out that Tang Yin had no intention of sparing himself, let alone his own soldiers who were trapped in the sea of fire. He had made up his mind to kill them all. Knowing that he had no hope of survival, Ming Xiaotian also risked his life. Even if he was forced to kneel on the ground by the guards, he did not hesitate and cursed: "Tang Yin, you are such a bastard, I will not let you go even if you are a ghost." It’s up to you, sooner or later, your end will be ten times and a hundred times worse than mine, haha..."
"Haha..." Listening to Ming Xiaotian's scolding, Tang Yin first let out a chuckle, then threw his head back and laughed loudly. He stood up and sat down again, and took another plate of beef from the tray behind him. , while stuffing it into his mouth, he raised his head to the executioner. The executioner understood, swung the ghost head knife, aimed it at Ming Xiaotian's neck, and chopped it down viciously.
flutter!
This knife cut off Ming Xiaotian's neck cleanly, and the severed head fell to the ground. The blood arrow shot out from the body cavity one or two meters high, forming a bright red blood fountain in the air. Tang Yin watched with a smile, and the small silver knife in his hand cut off pieces of meat from time to time, inserted it into his mouth.
In this decisive battle between the Feng and Ning armies in the eastern part of Hedong, the Ning army was completely wiped out. More than 400,000 people were killed. Except for more than 10,000 who escaped with their lives, the rest were either killed by the Feng army. Or be burned alive in the fire. When the Feng Army was cleaning the battlefield, they threw all Ning Jun's corpses into the blazing Feng Army Camp. There were so many Ning Jun's corpses that even if the Feng Army burned until noon, the Feng Army's camp was still not completely burned. After the fire gradually subsided, Feng Jun Jun entered Feng Camp to check. Everywhere he looked, there were black, burned and deformed corpses. Some corpses had shrunk to the size of children, some were hugged into a ball, and some were stacked on top of each other. Luo, piled up half a meter high, it can be seen that Ning Jun finally thought of using the method of piling up corpses to isolate the fire, but unfortunately he still could not escape from the raging fire snake.
Seeing this tragic situation, even the soldiers of the Feng Army were moved. People dug a big pit outside the Feng Camp and buried the burned corpses all over the camp.
This disastrous defeat resulted in the death of 400,000 Ning soldiers. Even if it was not a fatal blow to Ning Guo, it was still a severe blow to the Ning State. It was also from this war that the strong national power of the Ning Kingdom gradually declined, and its military strength collapsed. On the contrary, the strong period of the Feng Kingdom officially kicked off, and thus the second war against Ning began.
Tang Yin mercilessly burned and killed Ning Guo's troops. Of course, he would not admit it. Ziying was solely responsible for the matter. In order to appease the Ning people in Hedong, Tang Yin ordered that Ziying's title be reduced to viscount, general to lieutenant general, and he was punished with a three-year salary.
By doing this, Tang Yin also told Ning Ren that he was against killing and surrendering the army, and he was completely unaware of what Ziying did. However, the punishments he imposed on Ziying were all necessary. In reality, Ziying was still the commander-in-chief of the Sky Eagle Army and still had a large number of troops. Although Tang Yin received Ziying's salary, he gave him privately. The reward will be several times or dozens of times more than the salary.
