Tang Yin fell into Qingyu's plan and was defeated by the Mo army. The whole battle lasted very briefly and ended when the sky was slightly bright. After the battle, Fengying changed hands, and in this large-scale battle
During the battle, the Feng Army suffered only a few thousand casualties, but more than 100,000 soldiers were captured. The remaining Feng Army was dispersed, and less than 50,000 of them fled with Tang Yin.
The anti-horses set up by Tang Yin earlier really worked. The densely scattered anti-horses made it difficult for the Mo cavalry to pursue. This also became one of the important factors in the relatively small casualties of the Feng army in this battle.
Since joining the army, Tang Yin has never been defeated so miserably, and he was defeated continuously. He was already injured, the internal injuries were not healed, and the external injuries were severe. This time, he was fooled by Qing Yu and suffered such a disastrous defeat. He was furious.
His internal injuries were aggravated, and he kept coughing even when he was lying in the carriage.
On the way north, Zuo Shuang and Wuying came to report to Tang Yin, who wanted to lead his army back to Ba Pass.
After hearing this, Tang Yin's brow suddenly turned into a knot. He slammed the wall of the car and said intermittently: "Retreat to Ba Pass? Ahem... It took several months and countless soldiers were killed. Do you want me to return empty-handed... Ahem...
…”
Seeing Tang Yin's face turned red and coughing continuously, Wuying hurriedly stepped forward and patted him on the back.
Zuo Shuang sighed and said in a low voice: "Qingyu is a good strategist and monitors every move of our army. In this battle, he has calculated that the king cannot bear the humiliation of wearing women's clothes and will order the entire army to be on guard within three days."
The camp, and after three days, our army will be exhausted, and it would be really cunning for him to take the opportunity to attack again..."
Before he finished speaking, Tang Yin had already knocked over the medicine bowl in front of him and shouted angrily: "I know how I lost, and you don't need to analyze it anymore...cough cough cough..." He couldn't stop coughing.
His pale face turned red and purple due to the pain.
Wuying and Su Yelei, who was accompanying him, patted his back and brought water from a bowl. They worked for a while to stop Tang Yin's violent cough.
Tang Yin wiped the water stains from the corner of his mouth, swallowed his saliva, and gasped: "Retreat to the county town of Suyue, where we will compete with Mo Jun again."
Zuo Shuang looked sad and said: "Your Majesty, our army currently has less than 50,000 soldiers, while Mo's army has no less than 400,000. Even if our army retreats to Suyue, I'm afraid... I'm afraid it won't be able to withstand it..."
Tang Yin smiled, looked up to the sky and smiled bitterly, and said faintly: "The worst thing is that we will be defeated again! The battle has been fought so far, and it is invincible. What will happen if we lose a few more battles?"
Now, not to mention that the morale of the defeated soldiers of the Feng Army has been destroyed, even Tang Yin has the mentality of breaking the pot and has no hope of winning. Of course, the Feng Army currently has no strength to reverse the situation of the war.
.
"Your Majesty..." Zuo Shuang felt sad in his heart and said in a trembling voice: "But Your Majesty is seriously injured and should return to his country to recuperate. If he fights with Mo Jun again, he will delay his injury. I'm afraid... I'm afraid..." He couldn't continue what he said next.
.
Tang Yin knew very well what kind of physical condition he was in. He didn't want to fight. He also wanted to go back to Ba Pass and live a stable and comfortable life, but the current war situation was no longer in his control.
He said feebly: "We can withdraw, but as soon as we withdraw, Dongjiang County will return to the hands of the Mo Kingdom. If you allow the plains deep into the hinterland of the Mo Kingdom to fight, how will the Huwei Army withdraw? The back road will be cut off, and both front and rear will be cut off.
If there is a strong enemy, how will the second army respond?"
Zuo Shuang frowned for a moment, then calmed down and said: "Please, Your Majesty, order the Pingyuan Army and the Huwei Army to be transferred back! We are really unable to compete with the 400,000 Mo army, so we can only transfer back to the Pingyuan Army, and the Huwei Army will help!"
Can the passive situation be reversed even if the Pingyuan Army and the Huwei Army are transferred back? The answer is of course no, Tang Yin felt like he had a clear mind.
By transferring back the Second Army, our own troops will be integrated into one place, but Mo's army will also be integrated into one. By then, our troops will only have 200,000 troops at best, while Mo's army's strength may surge to 600,000 to 700,000.
, the strength of both sides is still not at the same level, and our own situation may even be more passive, and the result will be to be completely driven back to the country.
Tang Yin lay down weakly, staring blankly at the carport, and sighed deeply. After a long while, he raised his hand and murmured: "Go...give the order! Inform Xiao Muqing and Nanye to withdraw the troops..."
"Yes! Your Majesty!" These words made Zuo Shuang feel relieved, and he hurriedly agreed and quickly exited the carriage. From the current point of view, withdrawing the Pingyuan Army and the Huwei Army and resolutely giving up the results achieved previously is the best choice.
Suyuecheng, Dongjiang County, is an important town in the northern part of the Mo Kingdom. Because Dongjiang County borders Feng Kingdom, the county is extremely prosperous. The city has a large population and numerous wealthy families. The streets and alleys are lined with shops, and industry and commerce are extremely prosperous.
The remnants of Tang Yin and Feng's army withdrew into Suyue and stationed themselves there. Then they began to put the entire city on tight alert and quickly consolidated the city's defenses, preparing to fight another defensive battle with Mo's army here in the county town.
Tang Yin could not live in peace even if he lived in the county capital. Reports from various places came to Tang Yin like snowflakes.
Even if he was injured, even if the injury was serious, Tang Yin was the monarch and still had to deal with government affairs.
Zuo Shuang and Wuying both persuaded him to find Qiu Zhen and others from Bailin to help him handle these trivial matters. Tang Yin did not agree. The war was imminent and Su Yue was in danger. They called Qiu Zhen and the ministers in case anything happened.
An accident would have caused too much damage to Feng Country.
At noon that day, Lingshuang came to visit Tang Yin and brought some snacks unique to the Yu Kingdom. When she arrived at Tang Yin's bedroom, she found that he was not there. After asking someone, she found out that he was still in the lobby of the front yard with everyone.
We will discuss military affairs.
In the past few days, she had met with Tang Yin every day, and she knew how serious his injuries were. But even if he had to work without rest even after suffering such a serious injury, Tang Yin was not that easy to be a monarch.
She took her personal maid to the lobby again.
In the lobby, Tang Yinqiang sat in front of the desk with vigor and vigor. There were all the reports from Feng Zhanmodi placed in front of him. Tang Yin casually picked up one, unfolded it, looked down at it, then closed it, and picked it up again.
Others watched and quickly closed.
He fired five or six copies in a row, and his face became more and more ugly. Finally, he slammed the table, and the loud sound frightened all the generals below.
People stood with their heads bowed, not daring to breathe. Tang Yin looked around at everyone, and angrily knocked the memorial on the table to the floor.
Seeing blood seeping out of the bandage under his clothes, Su Yelei stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, pay attention to your injuries..."
Tang Yin raised his arm to block her hand and said in a deep voice: "I'm fine, don't worry about me!"
Su Yelei had no choice but to retreat. At this time, Lingshuang, who was peeking outside the door, walked in and asked with a smile: "Why is Brother Feng so angry about this matter?" As she spoke, she walked to Tang Yin.
Next to him, he slowly sat down.
When Tang Yin was furious, others did not dare to approach her, but Lingshuang was not afraid. She had the same status as Tang Yin. She was the king of a country, and she was still Tang Yin's wife by reputation. Naturally, she was not afraid of what Tang Yin would do to her.
Glancing at the uninvited Lingshuang, Tang Yin ignored her, closed his mouth tightly and said nothing.
Lingshuang blinked and did not feel embarrassed. She picked up a memorial at random and unfolded it. It read that Tang Ren, the head of Wunan County in Pengfeng County, was killed in an attack in Chengguan Town of the county. Then she picked up another memorial.
It was basically the same. Either the county chief or the city lord was assassinated, or the soldiers were ambushed while patrolling. The casualties ranged from dozens to hundreds to a few people.
These officials and soldiers from Fengzhan Modi were all transferred from the Feng Kingdom. In other words, they were all Feng people. They were either assassinated or ambushed. And it happened in so many places. It was really a headache.
Seeing that Lingshuang stopped talking after reading several reports, Tang Yin smiled bitterly and said: "As the saying goes, everyone pushes down the wall! When our Feng army was strong, no one in the Mo country dared to rise up and cause trouble.
Now that our army has lost ground and is retreating steadily, the people of Mo State dare to stand up and stir up trouble. It is unreasonable and it is too much to bully others!" He became more and more angry as he spoke, and couldn't help but cough again.
Lingshuang gently patted Tang Yin's tightly clenched fist and said softly: "Brother Wang, you are just some unruly people, why are you so angry?"
Tang Yin was angry, but he was actually angry with himself. In the final analysis, he was still unconvinced, and he was unconvinced that he had been defeated in Qingyu's hands.
He looked directly at Lingshuang and asked seriously: "Do you believe that if I am not injured, the Mo army will not be able to break through our camp in that battle?"
Lingshuang almost laughed. It turned out that he was still brooding over this matter, fussing over it, and putting all the blame on him for being injured. He was like a child who was unwilling to lose after losing the game.
She nodded repeatedly, and for the first time she willingly said without conscience: "Of course! If Brother Wang is not injured, with Brother Wang's intelligence, he will not be deceived by Qing Yu, and with Brother Wang's force, he will definitely not let Mo Jun
It’s easy to break the camp.”
After hearing this, Tang Yin's breath calmed down a little. Lingshuang said again: "However, it is true that Brother Wang is injured. If you want to take revenge, you must recover from the injury quickly." As she spoke, she raised her hand.
He called out: "Medical Officer Su, please serve the king and return to his room for medicine."
"Yes!" Su Yelei agreed, first looking at Lingshuang, and then nodded to the attendants around her.
The attendants hurried forward and helped Tang Yin lie down on the couch while whispering carefully: "Xiao Yin will send the king back to his room."
Tang Yin looked around, sighed one last time, lay down on the couch exhausted, and let his attendants carry him back to the room.
As Tang Yin left, all the generals also breathed a sigh of relief. The meeting had never stopped since the morning. Those who were not injured felt tired, let alone the seriously injured king?
People were very grateful to Lingshuang who persuaded Tang Yin to leave. When she walked out, everyone held up their hands and saluted, and said in unison: "I will send you to Your Highness Prince Yu!"
They were usually very polite to Lingshuang, but that was just politeness on the surface. In their hearts, they didn't take Lingshuang seriously. Even when they gave gifts, they looked elsewhere, and their contempt was naturally revealed. But now they are
