Because when planning, it was confirmed that the way of combat in this battle was not a strong attack, but a net was set up to wait, so the front battlefield looked calm.

The firelight in the distance was clearly visible, and the air emitted a pungent smell, but in the end, there were still dozens of miles away from the battlefield, which was far better than the rebel soldiers shrouded in smoke. At this moment, they were suffering an unprecedented disaster, and many people could never get out of the forest because of suffocation.

"I don't know how many people will die." Tang Yin suddenly sighed. When Ma Jiu heard this, he just glanced at him in surprise, and there was no more expression.

There are still undead people in war?

The battle lasted for a long time. Tang Yin stood at the gate of the camp and looked out at the distance. He wanted to see the situation on the battlefield clearly, but unfortunately he could not do it.

Fortunately, there were constant messengers coming from the front line to roughly explain the situation on the battlefield.

"Mr. Tang, the main force of the rebels really chose to break out to the east and crashed into the encirclement we preset... Our army has fought with them at present, but the result is unknown." Ma Jiu explained to Tang Yin.

Tang Yin frowned: "Why did it take so long to get on the fight? Could it be that the previous plan was deviated?"

Ma Jiu thought about it carefully and replied: "It was probably because the rebels wanted to determine the final breakout direction, which delayed the time, but fortunately there was no accident."

Tang Yin nodded. The valley where the rebels hid for dozens of miles was stretching. It was unrealistic to think that a torch would cover all the rebels. He thought: "This is probably what is called the opposite... It is said that it is because it is afraid of being alerted, but in fact it is because it is necessary to alert the snake to achieve the ideal effect. However... I accidentally missed Shen Zhihou's idea, or did he really follow my advice?"

Now that the official army and the rebels are fighting each other, Tang Yin still doesn't know his position in this war.

He would not have much brains to think about something he couldn't understand. As a military advisor, he didn't have to go to the front line to fight in person and could wait for the arrival of military merits in the camp. This was a very pleasant thing for Tang Yin. He thought about it carefully and felt that it was worth it to be asked by Shen Xi a few days ago.

"If this is not the case, I might have to go to war with him... The coach himself went to the front line, and I could get credit by just giving him advice and would be promoted after the war. What a good thing this is?"

Tang Yin couldn't help but smile, although his smile was extremely bright.

...

...

Until the second half of the night, the frontline rewards war was almost over.

After the rebels rushed out of the forest and entered the wilderness, they crashed into the pre-set encirclement of the government army. The rebel leader immediately chose to break through the encirclement when he found that the situation was wrong.

Because the main attack direction of the rebels is different, the duration of local battlefield battles is also different.

The rebels guarded the forest to hide, avoid fighting with the official army, and preserve their vitality. But now it is a breakthrough, which is related to life and death. The rebels have to give their all their strength. It is completely possible to imagine how fierce the front-line battle is.

"The fire in the mountains and forests is extremely strong, and the dust is filled with smoke, so we can't get close to their previous hiding place." Ma Jiu introduced the situation to Tang Yin, "To thoroughly check the number of rebels, we must wait for the fire to be smaller after dawn, and even after the fire is extinguished at noon."

The strong northwest wind brings a result, that is, the forests on the north are intact, and the fire burns on the east side, but the Diao River to the north and the Han River to the south, which is relatively narrow, and the bare field to the east, even if the burning is limited, not to mention that there are faults in the forests in the valleys, and the air humidity in spring and summer, the fire is not affected much.

Tang Yin looked at the camp with weak defense and asked, "When will the central army move camp?"

Ma Jiu smiled faintly. This was not a question he needed to consider, so he couldn't answer. Tang Yin sighed softly when he saw this: "It seems that he will have to wait until Shangshu Chen comes back to know."

"It's not too early, I'll go and rest first." Tang Yin yawned. At this time, he was no longer worried about the victory or defeat of this war. He could finally put down all his worries and have a good sleep. "After Chen comes back, remember to notify me that the wind and cold have not healed these days. I believe that Chen can understand it."

Ma Jiu quickly said, "Mr. Tang, please move your bedside tent."

...

...

Tang Yin slept very peacefully, as if the war had nothing to do with him. After falling asleep quickly, he didn't even dream of any scenes about the battle.

After dawn, the first ones to come back were Liu Xu and his two thousand soldiers. This time, Liu Xu made great achievements, and the number of rebels captured alone was more than 4,000.

The prisoners of war lined up very long and moved towards the camp little by little. At this time, Tang Yin had just woken up and stood at the gate of the camp, yawning, watching the officers and soldiers escorting the prisoners of war.

"Mr. Tang, you are such a talent... With your strategy, our army will win a great victory in this war."

Hu Songyue seemed very excited, "Hu was ordered to send prisoners of war to Dengzhou. Hu Zhongcheng will send someone to hand over. Don't you go back to the city to see?"

Tang Yin heard Hu Songyue’s bragging and waved his hand: “What am I going to the city? Let’s stay here to sort out the results!”

Hu Songyue's face was filled with an excited smile, and he had no intention of paying attention to Tang Yin anymore, so he quickly took someone to hand over the people sent by Hu Lian.

Everything went smoothly, Tang Yin thought to himself: "Hu Chongqi should have had an objection, right? But as the war ends, the credit will be overwhelmed, and all grudges will disappear invisibly, and everyone will be satisfied."

Because the prisoners of war were too long, Tang Yin had no time to finish watching and turned back to the camp. At this time, Wang Lingzhi brought Zhu Shan over and asked, "Mr. Tang, is Mr. Shen back?"

Tang Yin shook his head and looked at Ma Jiu who was talking to his scout not far away: "If you have any questions, go and ask General Ma, he will know better about the situation on the front line."

Then the three of them arrived in front of Ma Jiu together.

Ma Jiu was a little confused when Tang Yin and others came to ask, and after finding out the situation, he replied: "Sir, he is still on the front line, the war has not yet ended, but the local battlefield has resulted..."

Tang Yin nodded: "That's right. In a melee last night, the rebels in the encirclement were not very clear about the number of official troops in all directions. Moreover, there was no internal coordination and unity, so our army would take advantage of it. However, after dawn, they knew that the defense strength and distribution of various troops in the official army would definitely launch a targeted breakthrough operation."

Ma Jiu and Wang Lingzhi didn't say anything, but Zhu Shan said admiringly: "Mr. Tang's view is really extraordinary."

Wang Lingzhi scolded angrily: "It's up to you to say that Mr. Tang is not capable, so how could he be valued by adults? In the past, he would never lead a military advisor wherever he went, because he was the best military advisor himself, but this time he used Mr. Tang, which shows how extraordinary Mr. Tang is!"

When it comes to Chen Xi, Wang Lingzhi looks proud. Although he respects Tang Yin very much, this respect is more like trust in Chen Xi.

Zhu Shan smiled and said nothing. Instead, she smiled and showed a look of her daughter's house. Tang Yin just took a casual look and felt something was wrong. At this time, Ma Jiu smiled and said, "General Xiao Wang, General Hotan, reorganized the army first, guard the camp, and leave it to me."

"Mr. Tang and Brother Jiu, you guys are busy..."

Wang Lingzhi smiled and took Zhu Shan away.

After the others left, Tang Yin leaned over and asked Ma Jiu: "General Ma, that General Tian Shan, isn't it a woman?"

Seeing that Tang Yin finally discovered the truth, Ma Jiu smiled and said, "Actually there is nothing to avoid. Mr. Tang is not an outsider, so I said... That is General Xiao Wang's wife, who is extremely brave... Haha, this kind of thing is not easy to say in front of him and his wife, but it is because of her ability that she is valued by my family."

Tang Yin was stunned and asked, "Is General Xiao Wang's wife...Yikuan's sister?"

Ma Jiu nodded with a smile: "That's right. This time, the adults didn't let Yi Kuan follow the army and stayed in the capital. It seemed that there was something to tell him to do, so he asked Tian Shan... to ask Zhu Shan to come together, but it was not so convenient for women in the army. She had been staying in the grain transport team before, and recently she arrived at the central army. Xiaoshan was very strong, and General Xiao Wang often couldn't compare to it."

Hearing this, Tang Yin couldn't help but take a breath. He knew very well how capable Wang Lingzhi was. How terrifying would it be if there was someone who was even more powerful than Wang Lingzhi and was a woman?

"No wonder, no wonder."

Tang Yin was amazed. Is this really not a family member not entering the family?

Just as the two were talking, several more people came back and escorted many prisoners. Ma Jiu had no intention of chatting with Tang Yin and went to contact these generals.

Tang Yin looked bored and went to the camp gate to find a big stone. He climbed up and sat down. He saw Wang Lingzhi and Zhu Shan and his wife patrolling the surroundings of the camp from afar. He was quite moved.

"There are all kinds of weird people in Shen Zhihou's army. After several wars, I finally gained some knowledge. Perhaps only a genius like him can gather such capable generals. However, it seems that even if he is not in the army, these people can stand alone, but they just lack a commander who is good at dispatching."

Tang Yin suddenly realized why Shen Xi had entrusted him with important tasks.

"Does Shen Zhihou himself don't want to continue leading troops and is a little tired of running around the world? If so, he trained me, and I will take these people to fight in the future? Without his appeal, I can deal with these arrogant generals? Tsk tsk, it's better to be a civil servant. It's better to lead troops to those who know how to do it!"

...

...

The result of the war was as expected by Tang Yin, and there was no suspense, and the official army won a great victory.

However, it was not until noon that Shen Xi returned to the army with his men. At this time, even Hu Lian had been waiting in the camp for a long time.

At the same time, Liu Qi, one of the rebel leaders, and a group of senior rebel leaders, were also brought back by Shen Xi, but Liu Liu was not seen.

"Mr. Shen!"

All the generals came to Shen Xi, which means that Shen Xi did not send anyone to pursue the enemy, and many rebel leaders fled from this battle.

Shen Xi stood in front of the Central Army's tent, with tall and burly generals and guards on the left and right. Liu Qi was tied up and pressed to the ground, holding his head up desperately, looking stubborn.

"Can the thief know the crime?" Shen Xi asked.

Liu Qi tried hard to raise his head, stared at Shen Xi and sneered: "Everyone in the world said that Lord Shen is a good official who loves the people as much as his son. The people in the north and south of Henan all care about your good deeds, but unexpectedly, they are people who use any means to obtain credit... I bah!"

Song Shu, who personally captured Liu Qi, said angrily: "Do you dare to be disrespectful to the lord, and want to die? Sir, this guy is not convinced, so he will beat him dozens of military sticks first and kill him with his majesty."

Chen Xi raised his hand to stop Song Shu from committing a crime and said, "Liu Qi, you are a man, but because you raised the flag to rebel, it brought great disaster to the people of the Central Plains, causing people's livelihood to decline, and countless people died. You can't escape this blame... But I will not convict you easily and will hand you over to the court!"

"I'm not afraid of death. I'll be a hero again twenty years later! Kill me now!"

Liu Qi knew that if he was convicted of a serious crime of rebellion by the court, he would suffer from the pain of being cut into pieces. It would be better to anger Chen Xi and die happily after he was pulled.

Hu Song said angrily: "Want to die? It's not that easy! If you don't clarify your sins, just die like this? Even if you become a ghost, you will be a sober ghost!"

Liu Qi was full of righteous indignation, but at this time he stopped talking. The right to choose was no longer in his hands. After being captured by the court, it was a luxury to want to die. He would be stared at by others all the time and had no chance to seek death. In the end, he could only wait for the court to judge him.

Chen Xi said: "Liu Qi, if you want to die, tell me the whereabouts of your brother so that he will not suffer."

"Ah! Dog official!"

Liu Qi blushed when he heard this and cursed, "If you die, you will die. I still care about how to die? The court has done its best and the people are in dire straits. One day, they will rise up. At that time, you will be doomed... My brother will avenge me!"

"Hey, this guy is really not afraid of death. How can I not teach a lesson?"

Song Shu rolled up his sleeves and wanted to move forward, but when he looked at Chen Xi, he found that Chen Xi looked cold and his eyes swept against him like lightning, and immediately retreated awkwardly.

Chen Xi smiled: "You thieves always talk to the people... You are responsible for injustice, but is rebellion the only way to solve the problem? Look at the fact that people's livelihood in the Central Plains, Shanxi, Hebei and Shandong have declined, and agricultural production has almost been devastating. Now it is early summer and spring plowing has not been completed yet. How can the people live next?"

"If the court does not allocate grain from other places, I don't know how many people will starve to death in the Central Plains this year! Also, because you rebelled, it delayed the court's repair of dams and relief for the victims. Once the Yellow River breaks its dam again, how many people will die then? So, don't represent the people. Since you choose to rebel, you should know what the outcome of the defeat will be. This is your choice, no wonder others... take them down!"

Chen Xi did not want to get more news about Liu Liu from Liu Qi, so he ordered someone to take him away.

Liu Qi was raised up and dragged it away. Liu Qi struggled desperately, turned his head and roared: "The court has no faith, we choose to surrender, but you have driven all the deaths, and the Ming Dynasty will be destroyed in the hands of you, a group of corrupt officials! God will punish you!"

Such ruthless words have no meaning, but instead make the generals present sneer with disdain and put a arrogant thief into such a hysterical state. This is also an overwhelming victory.

However, Chen Xi was not proud of this and looked at the officers present: "Each of them sorted out their troops, calculate the losses and credit points tonight, and return to Dengzhou early tomorrow morning!"

"Get orders!"

The schoolmen present felt even more gloomy in their faces. They all returned to their respective troops with great energy to count the damage and achievements of the battle. It seemed that they had completed the quelling of the chaos and the war. They were just waiting for the final merits to be rewarded.
