Chapter 741 The Fall of Baishi City
With the arrival of Shi Wansui's army on the battlefield, the battle of Baishi City came to an end.
I don't know whether it is atonement, or maintaining the last bit of dignity. That night, knowing that there was no hope of making a comeback, Ruan Ping committed suicide on the tower of the south city gate, completing his curtain call performance as the lord.
Ruan Ping's suicide is embarrassing.
It can't be said that Ruan Ping doesn't work hard, Ruan Ping is definitely not an ignorant son, he even made brilliant achievements and stood on the cusp of the storm. Ruan Ping's fall can only reflect the cruelty of the wilderness once again.
The wilderness is like raising Gu, only the strongest can survive to the end and stand on top of the world.
This is a world where winners take all and losers lose all.
The ultimate winners are only a few, but there are countless losers as stepping stones.
…………
Following Ruan Ping's suicide, the Ruan family officially withdrew from the wilderness competition.
So far, the four major families in Lingnan were all forced to evacuate from the wilderness, and the Song family with the best ending was just transformed into a large chamber of commerce. The remaining three families all ended in despair.
The game experience of the four major families in Lingnan has almost become the epitome of the medium-sized forces in China. First, they took the lead in the game by virtue of their resource advantages in reality.
Then, in the brutal competition in the wilderness, more than 90% of them were eliminated due to unacceptable conditions.
The ambitions of most of the families, accompanied by the capture of the territory, disappeared in an instant, and the bamboo basket was empty. There is that crazy one, who exchanged a large amount of actual achievement points, and lost even more.
"Earth Online" provides players around the world with a chance to shuffle the cards, but not everyone will be the winner in this shuffle.
More than 90% of the players just walk around in style, and only the few lucky ones left can rely on chance or talent to achieve a counterattack and reach the pinnacle of life.
As for Ouyang Shuo's experience, it is not replicable and has no reference value.
…………
After Ruan Ping committed suicide, there was no longer a lord in Baishi City, and even the lord of Baishi City had fled.
The allied forces who got the news were blown up. They fought desperately all day and sacrificed nearly 100,000 brothers, but what they got in exchange was being ruthlessly abandoned, which is really unacceptable.
The crowd was so excited that the camp got out of control for a while.
That night, a large number of soldiers left the barracks and ran to the opposite camp to surrender. Naturally, Fan Lihua would not refuse anyone who came.
First one by one, then team by team, and finally turned into a collective surrender of battalion by battalion. Throughout the night, there was no rest outside Baishi City, and there was constant hustle and bustle.
Early the next morning.
Seeing the half-empty camp, the commander of the Allied Army who was still standing still spit hard, gritted his teeth, and simply led the entire army to surrender collectively.
The cowardice of the city-state lords completely chilled the hearts of the generals in the army.
It would be foolish to serve such a lord any longer. Instead of this, it is better to defect to the radiant Shanhai City and start a new journey on the battlefield.
Therefore, the Allied forces were not complete losers in this battle.
As long as it is alive, it is a kind of victory. The real losers are only those down-and-out lords and the soldiers who died in the battle yesterday.
…………
Knowing that the allied forces would surrender en masse, Fan Lihua did not dare to neglect at all, and secretly contacted Shi Wansui's army, asking the latter to enter the camp immediately and accept the allied forces' surrender together.
Last night, the follow-up troops of Shi Wansui's army had arrived one after another.
Fan Lihua didn't want any troubles to arise when the overall situation was settled. In matters in the military, it is always right to be cautious.
Facts have proved that Fan Lihua was worrying too much.
The allied forces really surrendered sincerely this time. In order to avoid being misunderstood by the Shanhai City army, they even took the initiative to disarm and wait for the reorganization of Shanhai City.
In the camp, the commander of the Allied Forces handed over the roster of the Allied Forces and the commander's seal to Fan Lihua. This alone saves the General Administration of Military Affairs a lot of work.
Therefore, Fan Lihua's favor for the Allied commanders increased greatly.
In yesterday's battle, the Allied commander's command was also remarkable, not mediocre. If he was really mediocre, he would not be able to ascend to the throne of the Allied Commander.
If Ouyang Shuo were here, he would recognize this commander.
Speaking of which, this is also a famous general in history. He is none other than Feng Yi, the famous founding general of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
[Name]: Feng Yi (imperial level)
[Dynasty]: Eastern Han Dynasty
[identity]: no
[Occupation]: Super General
[Loyalty]: 65 points
[Commander]: 84 [Force]: 68 [Intelligence]: 75 [Politics]: 72
[Speciality]: Smart General (increase troop morale by 30%, troop attack power by 20%, troop supply ability by 30%)
[Cultivation method]: None
[Equipment]: None
[Comment]: Feng Yi is not only talented in literature, but also good at martial arts. He not only has outstanding military exploits, but also has great achievements in governing the county government. It is commendable that he is humble and does not retreat, and does not take credit for pride.
Feng Yi in history was a wise general, a Confucian general, with both civil and military skills. What's even more rare is that Feng Yi has outstanding military exploits, but he never takes credit for pride and is humble.
Such generals are rare even in Shanhai City.
Feng Yi was originally a member of Yingchuan County in the New Dynasty, and later returned to Liu Xiu, and then fought, defeated Chimei, pacified Guanzhong, and assisted Liu Xiu in establishing the Eastern Han Dynasty. He made outstanding contributions.
After Liu Xiu proclaimed himself emperor, Feng Yi was granted the titles of General Zhengxi and Marquis of Yangxia.
In the tenth year of Jianwu, he died of illness in the army, and his posthumous title was Jiehou.
In the third year of Emperor Yongping of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Zhuang, Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty, ordered portraits of twenty-eight generals to be painted in Yuntai Pavilion, Nangong, Luoyang, called Yuntai Twenty-eight Generals, corresponding to the twenty-eight constellations.
The twenty-eight generals of Yuntai refer to the twenty-eight generals under the command of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu of the Han Dynasty who helped him unify the world and rejuvenate the Han Dynasty.
Among them, Feng Yi and Cen Peng deserved the most credit.
"Book of the Later Han Dynasty Volume 17" commented: "There are many generals in Zhongxing who have made great achievements, but the titles of Cen Peng and Feng Yijian are from the west of Hangu and the south of Fangcheng. The merits of the two generals are really great. If Feng and Jia don't attack, Cen Gong's righteousness and trust are enough to feel the three armies and cherish the enemy, so they can conquer a long-distance career and finally celebrate it all.
It can be seen from this that Feng Yi is capable.
Feng Yi of the Wilderness was originally a general under the command of Dayong County, Chaozhou County. Because of his outstanding talents, he was appointed by the city-state as the commander of the Allied Forces.
Feng Yi is an upright person. In yesterday's battle, in order to prevent other generals from accusing him of favoritism, the troops in Dayong County were sent out by Feng Yi as early as the first wave of attack.
After a great battle, the 6,000 troops in Dayong County were almost wiped out.
And just yesterday, Dayong County had been captured by Huo Qubing's army. Seeing this, the lord of Dayong County had no intention of nostalgia, and left Baishi City directly.
If it wasn't for Ruan Ping and others to stop him, Feng Yi would have been taken away.
…………
With Feng Yi's active cooperation, it became easier to receive the surrendered army in an instant.
According to the final statistics, a total of 150,000 Allied troops surrendered in this battle, and the cavalry alone reached 100,000. The price Fan Lihua Army paid was the death of 20,000 soldiers.
After staying for a while, Fan Lihua, Shi Wansui, and Elai who came in the morning joined hands to enter Baishi City.
So far, the Battle of Baishi City has come to an end.
Next, they will stop in Baishi City for a short time before embarking on the journey again.
*************
Shanhai City, the headquarters of the General Administration of Military Affairs.
The brilliant results achieved by the Fanlihua Legion exceeded the expectations of the General Administration of Military Affairs. The goal set by the General Administration of Military Affairs was to stop 250,000 allied troops. Unexpectedly, when they woke up overnight, the allied forces no longer existed.
Du Ruhui is already forming an army reorganization team, ready to send it to Zhenhai City immediately, and then go to Baishi City to be responsible for reorganizing the 150,000 allied troops who surrendered.
At the same time, the scarred Fanlihua Army will also rest in Baishi City. One is to take the opportunity to supplement the vacancies of soldiers who died in battle, and the other is to guard the 150,000 surrendered troops until the reorganization is completed.
This compilation is only preliminary statistics.
The real large-scale reorganization of the army will not be unified until after the Battle of Lingnan is over.
"Keming, I'll leave it to you!"
After staying up all night, Ouyang Shuo finally felt relieved and prepared to go back to catch up on sleep.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, in the last half month, we will definitely be able to win the entire territory of [Lingnan City-State]." Du Ruhui didn't feel sleepy at all, and was very energetic, with an uplifted look on his face.
No wonder, the victory in the Battle of Baishi City was so exciting.
Ouyang Shuo smiled and nodded: "Don't act too hastily, you have to be on guard, especially the [Shunan Province] in the north, I heard they have sent troops?"
"That's right." Du Ruhui nodded with a smile, he knew what your majesty was worried about.
When attacking the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the army of Shanhai City was inadvertently in the case of a big victory. [Shunan City-State] and [Northern Sichuan City-State] teamed up to seize food and took Guilin County.
That is also one of the few stains in the history of Shanhai City's war.
Now [Shunan city-state] is marching into Shaozhou County, Your Majesty does not want history to repeat itself.
In fact, Du Ruhui believes that this possibility is basically impossible. As long as the opponent is more sensible, after learning about the battle situation in Baishi City, he will withdraw his troops on his own initiative and will not wade into this muddy water again.
After all, today is different from the past.
When attacking the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom before, the army of Shanhai City was pinned down and unable to return in time.
This time it was different. Of the four major armies originally arranged to encircle and wipe out the Allied forces, only the Fanlihua army was trapped. The other three legions didn't even have the chance to participate in the Battle of Baishi City.
Not to mention, Huo Qubing's army and Di Qing's army are gradually advancing towards Shaozhou County.
[Shunan city-state] If you really don't know the fun and insist on getting involved in Shaozhou County, Shanhai City will go to war without any scruples this time.
Come to think of it, the other party couldn't get anything cheap from the two famous generals Huo Qubing and Di Qing.
Ouyang Shuo was just explaining as usual, but he hoped that Caiyun Zhinan would be bolder, in that case, Shanhai City would have a chance to intervene in [Shunan city-state] affairs.
Considering the existence of Zhang Liang, this possibility is almost non-existent.
