After the celebration banquet, Tang Yin had just returned to his sleeping tent when Yin Rou walked in from the outside. She came to Tang Yin and said with fear and complaint: "Yin, this time you sneaked into Huanying,
Why didn't you discuss it with me beforehand?"
If I had discussed it with you first, would I still be able to leave? Tang Yin knew Yin Rou's concern for him, so he comforted her with a smile: "I'm afraid you'll stop me! Many things seem to be very dangerous, but I
Have full confidence, like this time."
Yin Rou sighed helplessly and said seriously: "No matter what, next time something like this happens, you must discuss it with me in advance."
Tang Yin nodded with a smile and said, "Okay!"
While the two were talking, Lingshuang walked into the tent from outside. She drank a lot of wine at the celebration banquet just now, and her face was flushed.
She was a little surprised to see Yin Rou there, but she still walked over to Tang Yin and sat down, saying, "Brother Wang, General Bai didn't seem very happy at the celebration banquet!"
Tang Yin shrugged. Compared with Feng Jun and Yu Jun, An Jun really didn't have much to show off. As the commander of An Jun, Bai Qing was naturally quite embarrassed.
He smiled lightly and said: "Although the An army's performance in encircling and annihilating the Huan army this time was not as good as that of the Feng army and the Yu army, I am already very satisfied."
Seeing Lingshuang talking to Tang Yin about military matters as soon as he arrived, Yin Rou felt helpless and lacked interest. Just as she was about to bring the topic back, Lingshuang said again: "Brother Wang, what should we do with those prisoners of the Huan Army?
At the beginning, I made a promise in public that I would not kill innocent people indiscriminately."
Lingshuang was very aware of Feng Jun's method of treating prisoners of war. In order to reduce the burden, most of the prisoners of war were killed.
Tang Yin knocked on his forehead. It was a headache to have more than 100,000 prisoners. He pondered for a while and said: "Let the Huan troops who are above the rank of captain of a thousand remain and send away the others on the spot."
!”
Hearing this, Lingshuang showed joy. No matter what, she didn't want to break her promise in public. ("") She nodded repeatedly, paused for a moment, and then asked with concern: "What about the people above the level of captain of thousands?"
Tang Yin's eyes flashed and he said: "That is the backbone of the Huan Army and must not be left behind."
"But I already made a promise..."
"Letting the tiger return to the mountain will eventually cause great harm. If you want to achieve great things, you can't be too hung up on small details." Tang Yin knew in his heart that if all these regiment commanders and thousand commanders were released, then the Huan Kingdom's court could use these people to form a new army.
The new legion continues to cause trouble for itself. During the war between the two countries, the soldiers below are easy to recruit, but this kind of experienced middle and low-level officers are the most difficult to find. If you have the opportunity to eliminate them, you must not be lenient.
Lingshuang lowered her head with a sad face and remained silent. At this time, Yin Rou continued: "If a person has no faith, he will not stand. Besides, Wang Mei is the king of a country. Yin, I also think you should respect Wang Mei this time.
Views."
Unexpectedly, Yin Rou would speak for Lingshuang. Not only Tang Yin was surprised, but Lingshuang also looked at her in surprise.
Tang Yin thought for a long time, and finally nodded and said: "Since Rou'er and Wang Mei have pleaded for them, they can be spared, but they cannot be let go. I will send people to escort them back to Feng Kingdom tomorrow and imprison them."
."
Lingshuang breathed a sigh of relief, nodded repeatedly, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Wang." After speaking, she smiled at Yin Rou again, cupped her hands and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, Princess."
Two days later, the allied forces of Feng, Yu, and An began to set off and continued to advance westward until they headed towards Daxing, the capital of Huan State. Along the way, the coalition forces were overwhelming, and they even attacked two counties and five counties of Huan State, a total of
Eleven cities.
Qian Chong's entire army was wiped out, which greatly reduced Huan's strength. Only the local army resisted along the way. However, how could the local army resist the massive coalition army with its combat power?
, the local army had already heard the news and fled. ("")
It can be said that after annihilating Qian Chong's troops, the coalition forces captured two counties in a row without any bloodshed. At this time, the coalition forces pushed further west and were about to enter the Sanyang Plain of Huan State. In the Sanyang Plain, there were three cities.
, respectively Anyang, Fengyang and Huaiyang.
At this time, there was already a large army on the Sanyang Plain waiting for the arrival of the coalition forces, the Sichuan-Huan Coalition Army. The 400,000 Sichuan reinforcements headed by Xue Rong and the 200,000 Huan Army headed by Pang Xia. Of course, this Sichuan-Huan Coalition Army was
The Sichuan Army was the main force and the Huan Army was the auxiliary force.
Pang Xia was the lieutenant general of the Huan State, a relatively unknown lieutenant general. However, his father was very prestigious, and was the left prime minister of the Huan State, Pang Fei. Pang Xia was able to sit in the position of the lieutenant general, so he was naturally related to his father.
Directly related, as for his abilities, not many people really know about him. In other words, he was promoted to lieutenant general before he had time to show his abilities. However, the 200,000 Huan troops under his command were temporary
Put together, its combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the Sichuan army.
There was no danger to defend in the plain area, and Xue Rongya didn't even think about defending. He chose to have a head-on confrontation with the coalition forces here, intending to defeat the Feng, Yu, and An allied forces on the battlefield.
The main camp of the Sichuan-Huan Allied Forces is stationed in the center of Anyang, Fengyang, and Huaiyang. If the Feng, Yu, and An Allied Forces want to advance westward, they must pass through them. It can also be seen from this that they are full of confidence.
Xue Rong did not give Feng Yu'an the opportunity for the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces to avoid the battle.
On the other side, spies from Tianyan and Diwang continuously transmitted information about the Sichuan-Huan coalition forces back to Tang Yin.
Looking at the incoming detective reports, Tang Yin frowned. Most of the 200,000 Huan troops were new recruits and were not a cause for concern, but the 400,000 Sichuan troops were a big problem.
Tang Yin had fought with the Sichuan Army and had the opportunity to fight side by side, so he naturally knew the situation of the Sichuan Army very well. The Sichuan Army is an army with almost no weaknesses, especially in head-to-head confrontations. It is extremely powerful. First, the training of the Sichuan Army
Secondly, the Sichuan army is well-equipped. The entire army is equipped with iron helmets, iron armor, and fine steel weapons. Thirdly, and the most critical point, the Sichuan generals are skilled in fighting, and there is no mediocrity among them.
It can be said that all of them are troublesome opponents.
Take Xue Rong for example, although he is an arrogant old nobleman of Sichuan, but judging from his past record, he has fought nearly a hundred big and small battles, but has never been defeated. He can be said to be a veritable victorious general.
What surprised Tang Yin even more was that among the Sichuan army there was actually the Sichuan Kingdom's Blood Guard Camp. According to Lotte and Ai Jia's descriptions, most of the people in the Blood Guard Camp were from Shenchi, and most of the rest had been trained in Shenchi.
The descendants of the Sichuan people, this is an army created entirely by Shenchi. Although the total number of people from top to bottom is only 2,000, its combat power is not to be underestimated.
Now that the Sichuan people had made it clear that they were going to have a head-on confrontation with their own side, Tang Yin, who had always been warlike and had never been afraid of anyone on a frontal battlefield, felt a little unsure at this time.
It's not that he thinks that the Feng Army is inferior to the Sichuan Army, but that the Feng Army in his hands now doesn't have many troops. There are only two legions, the Sanshui Army and the Sky Eagle Army. The combat power of the Jade Army is good at best, but only good. He wants to fight with them.
The Sichuan army was still far from being able to compete. As for the An army, it was completely worthless in front of the Sichuan army. Therefore, in Tang Yin's mind, once a war started, the only thing that could really come in handy was the 200,000 Feng army.
When the entire army marched to a place ten miles away from the Sichuan and Huan Army camp, Tang Yin decisively ordered the entire army to stop advancing and camp on the spot.
If dealing with other enemies, Tang Yin would usually choose to camp five miles away from the enemy. He was not afraid that the other party would take the initiative to attack, but was afraid that the other party would not come. But against the Sichuan army, he no longer had such confidence.
Tang Yin's choice to set up camp ten miles away from the enemy was a sign of weakness, but the Sichuan-Huan coalition was not polite at all. Hearing that the opponent was preparing to set up camp, Xue Rong immediately ordered the entire army to set out to meet the enemy.
Under Xue Rong's order, the gate of the Sichuan-Huan coalition camp was opened, and 400,000 Sichuan troops took the lead, rushing out of the camp in a mighty manner and heading straight for the Feng, Yu, and An coalition forces ten miles away.
The soldiers of the Sichuan Army were heavily armored. When they advanced, their speed was not very fast, but their momentum was extremely shocking. The sound of their footsteps was loud and loud, and the scraping of their armor could be heard clearly from a distance.
When the whole army marched in formation, the iron armor on the people's bodies seemed to form huge mirrors, refracting the sunlight and dazzling the eyes.
The Huan army followed behind the Sichuan army, but its momentum was completely overwhelmed by the Sichuan army. The 200,000-strong army could not find its presence, and its formation was also sparse, as if the Sichuan army was followed by a small tail.
Just as Tang Yin was about to set up camp, the Sichuan-Huan coalition forces attacked fiercely, which made Tang Yin take a breath. He secretly gritted his teeth and shouted to the left and right: "Send the order, all soldiers in the army, prepare to fight!"
The generals of the Three Kingdoms on the left and right looked at each other and frowned in unison.
Ziying raised his hands to Tang Yin and said: "Your Majesty, our army has come a long way and is exhausted. However, the Sichuan-Huan coalition forces have already been recharging their strength and waiting for work. If we are fighting at this time, our army will suffer a loss, so... let's withdraw first!"
This was exactly what Tang Yin wanted to hear, but he couldn't say it himself. After listening to Ziying's words, he borrowed the donkey from the slope and nodded in response: "What Ziying said makes sense, our army... will retreat ten miles for the time being."
Under Tang Yin's order, the allied forces of Feng, Yu, and An did not dare to challenge, and took the initiative to give in. The rear team became the front team, and all retreated ten miles.
Seeing the enemy retreating on their own initiative, Xue Rong, the commander-in-chief of the Sichuan Army, couldn't help laughing and said to the generals on his left and right: "I thought King Feng was so great, but now that he encounters the main force of our army, he doesn't dare to fight!"
After the enemy troops retreated, Xue Rong stopped pursuing them and issued the same order, and the entire army retreated back to the camp.
Originally, Tang Yin wanted to camp ten miles away from the Chuanhuan Camp, but the opponent took the initiative to attack. He had to change his plan and retreated to camp twenty miles away. This was extremely rare in the Feng Army's combat history.
