Volume 10 Chapter 154

The person kneeling at the front of the Mo army, bearing a thorn and pleading guilty, was none other than Shao Yu, the head of Xishan County. Read the full text.

After seeing the situation clearly, Tang Yin ordered the entire army to stop advancing, and then only led a few generals to urge the horse forward. He looked down at Shao Yu and asked, "Who are you? Why are you kneeling here?"

Although Shao Yu has never met Tang Yin, he has heard some rumors. Coupled with the many winds that will hold him in the arms of the stars, he has already guessed Tang Yin's identity.

Shao Yu knelt on the ground without moving and said loudly: "The guilty minister, Shao Yu, is here to wait for His Highness, King Feng, to apologize to His Highness."

"Oh?" It turned out that this person was Shao Yu. Tang Yin looked him up and down for a while, smiled with crooked eyes, and asked: "What crime is Master Shao guilty of?"

"The guilty minister was previously deceived by Shao Fang and blocked His Highness' Master Wang. This is a heinous crime!" While speaking, Shao Yu kowtowed continuously, his head on the ground, and he did not dare to raise his head.

Strictly speaking, Li Sheng died in his hands. Tang Yin was furious about this and vowed to cut off Shao Yu's head, but the situation was different now. Shao Yu surrendered voluntarily and showed his willingness to plead guilty in public. His posture, if he were to be killed again, it would appear that he was too weak and would be unable to convince the public.

Tang Yin sat on the horse and didn't move or speak for a long time. He lowered his head and stared straight at Shao Yu, who was kneeling down.

I don't know how much time passed, but it was so long that even Shao Yu felt that he could not save his head. At this moment, Tang Yin suddenly stabbed his knife and waved it down casually. With a soft sound of sand, a cold light flashed across Shao Yu's body.

thump! Shao Yu felt a biting cold air blowing from his back, as if all the strength in his body had been choked out in an instant. His body went limp and he slumped to the ground. Big beads of sweat dripped from his cheeks. land.

"Recognizing your mistakes can greatly improve things. Since Mr. Shao can sincerely trust him, he will wipe out all the past for his brother. Not only will I not blame you, but I will also reward you heavily. Get up!" Tang Yin returned the knife and put it away coldly. His expression was replaced by a bright smile.

It was only then that Shao Yu realized that Tang Yin's knife did not hit him, but only cut off the rope that bound him. He secretly said it was a fluke that Cai Gui taught him to take the initiative to plead guilty and it really worked. He cheered up, knelt down and kowtowed again, and said in a trembling voice: "I am a humble minister... thank you for not killing me!" After saying this, he kowtowed three times and then stood up from the ground tremblingly. At the same time, the lieutenants behind Shao Yu shouted: "Welcome the king to the city!"

Shao Jun and Cai Gui walked out from the crowd of Mo Jun and came to Tang Yin. Shao Jun bowed his hands and saluted, saying: "His Royal Highness the Wind King!"

Cai Gui knelt down and gave a great gift, and said respectfully: "Cai Gui, a humble minister, comes to see you, your Majesty!"

Tang Yin just nodded slightly, but did not look at Cai Gui. His bright eyes were fixed on Shao Jun.

Shao Jun felt chills running down his spine and chills running through his body. Tang Yin's fierce eyes didn't look like those of a human being, but more like those of a wild beast. Shao Jun was frightened and at a loss. He didn't know where he had offended Tang Yin. He peeked to the left and right and saw that his companion Cai Gui was kneeling on the ground, but he was standing and saluting. He subconsciously followed suit and knelt on the ground again. Said: "See... see His Highness the Wind King!"

Seeing that he was kneeling down to salute like Cai Gui, Tang Yin's eyes softened. He turned over and dismounted with a smile on his face, pretended to reach out his hand to help Shao Jun up, and said with a smile: "Brother Shao Wang, you and I are both gifts from the emperor." Prince, why do you need to pay such a big courtesy?" He said this, but he was very happy in his heart. He not only wanted Shao Jun to understand who was the leader and who was the assistant, but also Shao Yu and the twenty surrendered people. Dowan Mojun understood that he was their real master, the one who held the power of life and death over them.

Tang Yin is not a saint, he also has the side of a young man who is successful and arrogant.

*After forcing Shao Jun to surrender to him in public, he turned around, looked at Cai Gui with a smile, and nodded secretly. It’s no wonder that Cai Song’s ability is mediocre, but the Cai family can have such a high reputation in Ningdi. Think about it with Cai Gui. Talents are inseparable.

He didn't show any particular joy and said lightly: "Cai Gui, you did a good job this time."

Cai Gui didn't dare to be vague at all, and kowtowed hurriedly: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty! The humble minister can make a difference, all thanks to Your Majesty's blessing."

"Haha!" Tang Yin laughed at his words, patted him on the shoulder, raised his head and said, "Get up!"

On the way to accompany Tang Yin to the city, Shao Yu was eager to show his loyalty. He kept introducing the situation of Fengyang and Xishan County in a rapid-fire manner. In addition, he also mentioned the fifteen-year-old Han Zhong and Yuan Tian. Wan Zhong's subordinates were all imprisoned in the military camp and asked Tang Yin what to do. Tang Yin thought for a moment and asked, "Are these 150,000 Mo troops unwilling to surrender?"

Shao Yu said hurriedly: "Some are willing to surrender, while others are stubborn. We believe that as long as we give time, we will be able to persuade them all to surrender."

"This is best." Tang Yin nodded and said, "I don't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately. If Master Shao can persuade them all to surrender, then take these 150,000 people under your command!"

Yo! Upon hearing this, Shao Yu's eyes suddenly lit up. He thought that after he surrendered to Feng State, even if Tang Yin didn't kill him, he would have to reduce his power. He didn't expect Tang Yin to be willing to send him more troops. This was too unexpected. Tang Yin's order also made Shao Yu completely relieved. He knelt down and kowtowed excitedly, and said in a trembling voice: "Thank you, the king, for your trust in me. I am willing to lead the horse and fall for you, and I will not refuse even if I die!"

Tang Yin smiled and waved his hand, saying: "I said, since Lord Shao is willing to abandon darkness and join the light, he is one of us, and there is no need to be so restrained and polite."

"Yes, yes, yes! I will remember the king's teachings!" Shao Yu nodded repeatedly.

In theory, Shao Jun is the new King of Mo appointed by the emperor, and is Shao Yu's new master, but Shao Yu simply ignores him, just surrounding Tang Yin, following him around, and trying his best to please him.

Shao Jun didn't mind it at all, and he didn't even think there was anything wrong with Shao Yu's behavior. Seeing Shao Yu constantly flattering Tang Yin, he was happy on the side. He was very happy that he had another fellow clan member who had joined Tang Yin. He was no longer alone. Even if he was called a traitor by the Mo people in the future, Shao Yu would share the burden with him.

Xishan County had natural defenses and an army of more than 300,000, but it surrendered to the Feng Army of less than 100,000 people and bowed its head. If you don't look at the process, just look at the result of the matter, it can be called a "miracle".

Tang Yin was willing to hand over the captured 150,000 Mo troops to Shao Yu for full disposal. It was not a temporary idea that was impulsive, but a well-thought-out idea. Let's not talk about it now.

After the Feng Army led by Tang Yin entered Fengyang City, they temporarily settled down and the whole army rested.

Within two days, good news came from the rear. After two months of siege on Yangchuan, the Feilong Army led by Zuo Shuang finally launched a full-scale attack. The battle was extremely fierce, and it was a head-on confrontation. After two days and two nights of fierce fighting, the Feilong Army finally broke through the northern city of Yangchuan and successfully entered the city. However, the Mo Army was also extremely tenacious. Even after the city was broken, they still refused to surrender. The commander Li Rong led the remnants to fight the Feng Army in the city, but in the end, due to the disparity in the combat power between the two sides, they were eaten up by the Feng Army one by one.

After another day of fighting in the city, the Mo Army led by Li Rong was completely wiped out, and even Li Rong himself died tragically in the Luan Army. Although the Feng Army won this battle, it was also a tragic victory. After the 200,000 Feilong Army, more than half of them were killed or wounded, and even five corps were wiped out.

However, the victory of the Battle of Yangchuan also made the Feng Army, which had penetrated deep into the Mo Kingdom, worry-free. Counting the Xishan County that had just defected, the Feng Army had occupied three counties in the Mo Kingdom, namely Dongjiang, Pengfeng, and Xishan.

While Tang Yin wrote back to commend the Feilong Army, he also ordered Zuo Shuang to lead his troops to wipe out all the resistance forces in Pengfeng and Dongjiang counties, and completely stabilize the situation in the two counties.

Because the local armies of Dongjiang and Pengfeng had already been beaten to a pulp by the Feng Army, the remaining fish that slipped through the net were no longer a force to be reckoned with. Even though the Feilong Army suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Yangchuan, it was enough to easily complete the task.

Shortly after the victory report of the Battle of Yangchuan arrived, intelligence from the Pingyuan Army and the Huwei Army came again. The Huwei Army had not yet arrived at Jueqing Mountain, and the Mo Army, who heard the news, took the initiative to retreat. The Pingyuan Army, which had been trapped for many days, was finally able to escape and joined the Huwei Army. Now it is stationed near Jueqing Mountain, waiting for Tang Yin's instructions.

Having captured three counties of the Mo Kingdom in succession, Tang Yin was in high spirits. After receiving the letter from the Pingyuan and Huwei armies, he immediately wrote back to the two armies, continuing to move south to attack Jinshi City and Zhengzhong County where it was located.

Good things come in pairs. When Tang Yin was about to move south from Xishan County, Ningdi reported another victory. The Sanshui Army and Tianying Army had fought very smoothly in the eight counties of Ningnan. They defeated the Mo Army three times in a row, like a sharp knife, and were about to reach the border between Mo and Ning.

Fighting on two fronts, with frequent victory reports on both fronts, how could Tang Yin not be happy? He had no worries about his own march south, and his target was Anqiu County of the Mo Kingdom.

At present, the direct army under Tang Yin had less than 100,000 troops, but according to the intelligence of the Sky Eye and the Ground Network, the troops in Anqiu County were not many either.

Anqiu is located at the border of Mo and Yu, but it is not the place where Mo sent troops to Yu, and the supply line of the Mo army does not pass through Anqiu. However, if Anqiu is captured, the Feng army can directly threaten Sishui.

Sishui County is the base camp for Mo to send troops to Yu. A large number of new soldiers, food and supplies are stored in Sishui. The supply line of the Mo army deep into Yu also uses Sishui as a springboard. If Sishui is threatened, it is equivalent to threatening the 500,000 Mo central army deep into Yu.

Tang Yin does not intend to save Yu, but he will not give up the opportunity to put pressure on Mo, which is also the main reason why he chose to attack Anqiu.
