Lin Ye found a place to sit down in the wilderness inside Lai Fengkou City and let out a long breath.
All he could see were Dayu's soldiers collecting the corpses of enemy soldiers.
One hundred thousand people, fully one hundred thousand people.
Ning Haitang shouted on the wall of Laifengkou, since they chose to be enemies with Dayu, then kill them all.
Therefore, the soldiers and horses of Lone Bamboo Camp, who had been guarding the camp for a whole day and night, killed the most ruthlessly.
Later, someone came over to ask Lin Ye for instructions on how to deal with many prisoners.
Lin Ye's answer is...why are there prisoners?
The memorial sent to Geling in the near future will surely contain this sentence.
The Loufan people were fierce and refused to accept the defeat. They fought to the last soldier and a hundred thousand people died, and no one begged to surrender.
The memorial is written like this, and Your Majesty also knows what is going on.
The advantage of writing it this way is that the adults in the court will understand how fierce the Loufan people are and would rather die than surrender.
After the common people learn about it, they will also understand how powerful the enemy is, and it is not just the soldiers of Dayu who regard death as their own.
A group of fierce soldiers escorted several prisoners over. Since they could be brought in front of Lin Ye, they were certainly not ordinary prisoners.
The leader of the team was a fifth-rank general. He approached Lin Ye and performed a military salute and said: "General, General Xumi has captured the leader of the bandits, Yelu Mingjing, and ordered me to deliver him to the general."
Lin Ye nodded: "You all go and have a rest."
The group of warriors immediately bowed and retreated. Yelu Mingjing and others who were tied up by Wu Hua Dao looked really embarrassed.
Lin Ye glanced at Yelu Mingjing, and Yelu Mingjing also looked at him, his eyes full of hatred and anger.
"You won, what do you want to say?"
Yelu Mingjing asked coldly.
Lin Ye waved his hand, did not speak to him, and ordered Pang Panghai: "Cut off the head, seal it with lime, and send it to Geling... together with Yelu Ling."
Pang Panghai responded immediately.
Yelu Mingjing's eyes opened even wider: "Lin Yepifu, do you dare to fight me openly!"
Lin Ye lay back on the high slope covered with weeds. His back didn't feel cold, but rather warm.
what did he say?
He didn't bother to say anything.
Reason the loser? Analyze why he lost?
He doesn't have that interest, he doesn't have that leisurely mind. If he has this time, would it be a good idea to lie down and take a rest?
It's not like Yelu Mingjing didn't know why he was defeated. Lin Ye gave him a choice, and he chose to die.
At this time, Jin Wu, who had also been fighting for a whole day and night, walked up to Lin Ye and bowed down: "I have seen the general."
Lin Ye patted his side: "Either sit down and talk, or lie down. I'm tired and don't want to sit and talk to you."
Jin Wu immediately laughed and sat down next to Lin Ye.
"General, how do you know that Yelu Mingjing will take the opportunity to attack the wind outlet?"
Lin Ye did not answer, but asked Jin Wu: "After you came back, you concluded that Yelu Mingjing would definitely come to seize the city. Why?"
Jin Wudao: "When I was in the Loufan camp, Yelu Mingjing calculated the time so clearly and carefully in front of me. He really didn't take me seriously."
Lin Ye couldn't help but smile, it was short but nice.
Not long after he saw Jin Wu return, fireworks exploded at the Loufan camp, and he understood what Yelu Mingjing wanted to do.
Not giving Jin Wu much time to speak, he planned to light fireworks as soon as Jin Wu returned to Lin Ye.
Jin Wu said: "He was also negligent at the time. He told his men to immediately notify each battalion to prepare and set off the fireworks half an hour later..."
He looked at Lin Ye: "That guy has decided that I will not stay in the Loufan camp, and it will take me at most half an hour to return to the general. Just as I finished speaking, the fireworks went up, and the general didn't have time to think too much.
Lead troops to pretend to attack."
"If he really wanted to surrender to Dayu, why would he have planned so carefully? He just wanted to catch us off guard."
Lin Ye said: "Sending you to Xiantang City to be the General of the Forbidden Army seems to be the right person."
Jin Wu smiled, his face was dark and dark, so when he smiled, his teeth looked so white.
When your teeth are white, your smile will look better.
"But......"
Jin Wu asked: "The general had already arranged everything before I came back. How did he figure out Yelu Mingjing's thoughts?"
Lin Ye replied: "I'm confused."
Jin Wu didn't believe it, but he was embarrassed to ask further.
Lin Ye didn't say it because the answer was not that good. He... just never believed in human nature that much. In other words, he believed in human nature that much.
These two sentences are not contradictory at all.
The words he asked Jin Wu to say to Yelu Mingjing directly drove Yelu Mingjing to a corner, leaving no room for him.
Suddenly, Jin Wu said that he could pretend to seize the wind outlet. For a person in desperate situation, this was not just as simple as finding a way out.
People in desperate situations tend to make mistakes when they are overjoyed.
He thought he had caught Lin Ye's stupidity, but how could he understand that he was a person who had an extremely thorough understanding of human nature, even if such an opponent had just turned eighteen.
If it were Lin Ye who made the choice himself, he would probably make the same choice as Yelu Mingjing.
If there is a chance to reverse the situation, who would be more willing to choose to betray their country? To be a sinner who will bear the infamy for eternity.
What Lin Ye asked Jin Wu to say was actually not flawless, it just revealed a person's thinking in that desperate situation.
Jin Wu said: "This time, the Loufan people will probably not dare to go south easily for many years."
Lin Ye asked: "Are you happy?"
Jin Wu nodded vigorously: "Happy."
He was really happy, not just because the battle was fought so beautifully and he won so thoroughly.
It’s also because there won’t be any big battles to fight in Dongbo for a long time to come.
The people of Dongbo can finally usher in a period of recuperation, finally live a less fearful life, and finally... can live like human beings.
Yes, compared to the people in Dayu, the people in Dongbo only live like individuals.
"General, will you leave Dongbo soon?"
Jin Wu asked.
Lin Ye still didn't answer, but asked him: "Why do you ask that? Do you want me to leave, or do you want me to stay?"
Jin Wu didn't answer immediately because it was difficult to answer.
The answer in his heart could not be said to be very good. He hoped that Lin Ye would be here, because if Lin Ye was here, Dongbo would not destroy the country.
He was looking forward to Lin Ye leaving, because as long as Lin Ye left, Dongbo would really stop fighting, and he would really be able to farm, herd, and recuperate in a down-to-earth manner.
"I'll leave, but..."
Lin Ye lay there looking at the sky and said to himself: "For the time being, we are not heading in the direction of Dayu."
He fought this battle too quickly and won too quickly. He knew that His Majesty would definitely mobilize troops and horses to support, and would also allocate a large amount of food and supplies.
No matter whether it was reinforcements or supplies, they hadn't been used yet. He had already won. He had won by destroying a hundred thousand enemies without leaving any survivors.
So, wouldn’t the troops and horses sent for support and the food and grass allocated be wasted?
Of course, it cannot be wasted. When the troops come, they will fight a few battles before leaving. When the food and grass come, they will be used on the way to fight.
"Go and get ready."
Lin Ye said: "A few months ago, when I asked you if you dared to go to Loufan, I had already sent someone to deliver a message to Xiantang to tell your monarch that I had found a qualified general of the Forbidden Army for him."
He turned his head and looked at Jin Wu: "Calculating the time, the monarch's reply is coming soon."
Jin Wu was shocked and panicked, followed by boundless fear.
months ago......
The young man in front of him, who was so much younger than him, had already reached the situation he is in today.
All the victories seemed easy, but they had already been planned by this young man.
When he said those words to Jin Wu on the city wall a few months ago, he had already seen the scene of Lou Fan's corpse all over the ground a few months later.
"Assist your king well and he will be a good king."
Lin Ye's explanation was actually a farewell message.
Jin Wu lowered his head: "I really want to take my brothers back to have a rest. They protect the country, the capital, and the monarch, but like me, they have never seen what the capital looks like, and they have no idea.
I’ve seen what prosperity looks like.”
He turned to look at Lin Ye who was still lying there: "But General, we can't go to Xiantang without a replacement team."
"have."
Lin Ye's answer was only one word.
Jin Wu immediately asked: "General, did you also ask the monarch for instructions earlier to dispatch another team to replace us?"
Lin Ye said calmly: "I don't need to ask him for instructions."
Jin Wu was startled.
Lin Ye said: "There is no need to feel humiliated or sad. You have seen the warmth and warmth of the world more than anyone else, so you should understand that the good things in this world are all obtained in exchange for other things."
Jin Wu understood, and he stopped asking any more questions. If he had asked, the general would definitely give him the answer to this question, but when he said it, he would appear so cold.
Yes, there is no need to garrison troops in winter.
From this moment on, the wind outlet will still be the border gate of Dongbo, but the troops stationed here will be replaced by jade men.
Dayu's border army will become the city wall and national gate here, and this border city will also become a stepping stone.
Jin Wu understood because he thought of what the general said just now.
The general said, I will go, but it is not in the direction of Dayu for the time being.
Then, attack it out.
Lin Ye has never been a person who accepts when things are good for him. He has not been before and will never be the same in the future. He is... a person who accepts only when things are not good.
It's cruel, it's ruthless, it doesn't even contain the emotions that anyone should have.
Just correct.
Now that Lou Fan has been beaten, there is no reason to let it go as soon as possible.
Lin Ye may not attack Loufan directly, but he will sweep over the vassal states near Loufan's southern border one by one.
Surrender, or perish.
Coming to the wind outlet, Lin Ye will feel at ease only if Yu Jun firmly controls it.
As a Dongbo person, Jin Wu felt emotionally uncomfortable because he couldn't resist, couldn't explain or even comfort himself by saying...this is not humiliation.
This is.
Dongbo's northern gate is guarded by the Jade Army, and from now on, Dongbo will become the supply camp for Dayu's Northern Expedition.
It's uncomfortable, no matter how you think about it, it won't make you feel better, but you can only accept it. At least, it's not without any benefits.
After Dayu's frontier troops were stationed in the northern border of Dongbo, there was no foreign enemy in Dongbo who could invade at will.
"General."
Pang Dahai ran over, panting but with a smile on his face.
"General, when we were dealing with the prisoners just now, who would have thought that we would touch a big fish? Prince Lou Fan named Tuomu Shen was still alive. He changed into the clothes of an ordinary soldier. He thought he could escape, but he was turned over.
Out."
He asked: "General, should this Tuomu Shen be executed now?"
Lin Ye shook his head and said in a calm tone: "If you don't want to kill, find a cage to put them in, and beat gongs and drums all the way back to Dayu, and send them to Geling, so that the people wherever they pass will know that the people in the cage are
who is it."
After saying this, he looked at Jin Wu, whose face was a little pale.
"Go and be your General of the Imperial Guard. The longer you stay with me, the less you will trust the future."
Jin Wu stood up, walked a few steps, turned back, knelt down and saluted Lin Ye.
In any case, he should thank Lin Ye with such a great gift.
Lin Ye didn't stand up, didn't raise his head, and didn't respond.
