"Lord, our army has occupied Xuanping City. The soldiers suffered very few casualties. They killed more than 4,000 enemy soldiers and captured more than 10,000 people alive. The captured supplies are being counted!"
"Very good. Where is Fan Tong, the governor? Has he been captured alive?"
The governor Fan Tong is an important figure. As one of the local snakes who have been entrenched in Yannan Road for many years, he has absolutely great influence on all aspects of Yannan Road. If we can capture him and have his help, it will definitely be of great benefit to Wang Yu in the future.
"This... please rest assured, my lord, we will intensify our search efforts and never let Fan Tong have the slightest chance to escape!"
At dawn, Wang Yu stepped onto the Xuanping Tower with a proud look on his big face.
This Xuanping City is an important place. Otherwise, Fan Tong and Chen Xuanbao would not be able to stay here with the remaining strength of Yannan Dao.
If they grasp this traffic artery well, the vendors along the way can already keep them busy.
It's a pity that Fan Tong, the former governor of Yannan Province, is missing at this time. This is an old man, and he has been a local snake here for so many years. If he is not captured on the spot, it will not be easy to find him again!
"Reporting to my lord, all the captured enemy generals are here!"
"Kneel down! -- all kneel down!"
Many prisoners were led over with their heads tied, all in ragged clothes and looking downcast.
Among these many prisoners, another old acquaintance of Wang Yu appeared, Nanfeng Buyu.
During the battle of conquering Liangshan, there were not many old acquaintances from Yannan Road left today, and Nanfeng Buyu was one of them.
Although there are two powerful generals, Hong Tiandu and Jia Kun, who dominate the Yannan Daofu army, after experiencing so many changes, there are actually not many heaven-level generals left. And in this battle, Nanfeng Buyu was the only one left.
In fact, the situation was chaotic last night, and Nanfeng Buyu had a chance to escape, just like the others who escaped. However, their strong sense of responsibility prevented them from losing Xuanping City or their soldiers.
Therefore, Nanfeng Buyu chose to stay and fight until the last moment. However, it was still difficult to change the situation. In the end, Wang Lanying and two brothers from the Yang family worked together to capture him alive.
"If you don't kneel down, how can I, the dignified military attache of the imperial court, kneel down to those who are disobedient and disobedient!"
"Kill me if you can. If I frown, I won't be able to do it!"
Nanfeng Buyu struggled fiercely and was kicked in the crook of his leg several times, but stood up tenaciously, with no fear on his face when facing the shining sword.
At the same time, he was also staring closely at Wang Yu. He really couldn't imagine that just a short time before the Battle of Liangshan, the other party had already created a great reputation in this world!
To this day, Nanfeng Buyu feels extremely sad about all this! It's a pity that a young general who came from a famous family was not only unable to be used by the court, but instead stood on the opposite side of the court.
"General Nanfeng is so upright and honest, I admire him a lot. Please loosen the bonds of General Nanfeng. There are some things I want to ask you. Don't treat General Nanfeng badly!"
"My dear Wang Yu, there's no need to be hypocritical. It's easy to cut off my head. There's no way for me to betray the court!" Nan Feng said without saying anything, eyes widening.
"Good men with backbone, please sit aside and rest, put them into clean clothes, and prepare some food and wine to quell their shock!"
"promise!"
As the saying goes: "Taishan is too heavy to compete with stubborn rocks." With Wang Yu's status, he would not be angry at Nanfeng's rudeness. Instead, he treated him kindly and brought other prisoners over. Prepare to recruit a few useful people for this purpose.
This time, a lot of surrendered soldiers were captured from Yannan Road. Although the quality of these people was not up to par, they were at least soldiers, which was better than recruiting them again.
Therefore, Wang Yu wants to make conscious use of these captured soldiers. In this way, coupled with the bandit soldiers forcibly absorbed along the way, Wang Yu's men can now piece together a 60,000-strong force. Got it!
Although there is bound to be a mixed bag of good and bad, waiting for him to pass this level first can serve as a buffer period for him. After all, it is never easy to train a strong soldier who has fought many battles, and it cannot be formed overnight. It will take at least several years, or even more than ten years of hard work.
However, if you want to make use of these captured soldiers as quickly as possible, the best way is to absorb a group of these captured generals.
"Yan Nan only has heroes who bleed, and there are no cowards who kneel down. You can kill or behead them as you wish!"
"That's right, we would rather die standing than live on our knees. We will have a scar as big as a bowl on our head and be a good man again twenty years later - bah!"
………………
The captured generals were escorted over, and they were all "hard-core". They all tilted their heads, squinted their eyes, and looked indifferent, and some even spat at Wang Yu!
It turned out that these people could clearly hear the conversation between Wang Yu and Nan Feng Buyu.
Nan Feng Buyu was so arrogant and rude just now. Not only was there no one killed, but he was treated like a distinguished guest. Therefore, these people felt that they had figured out Wang Yu's temper - he would take the hard but not the soft, and he liked heroes and warriors!
There are many such "bitches" in the world. After being captured on the battlefield, if you kneel at his feet and beg for your life, the more he will look down on you and think that you are a useless person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Kill it with one sword!
On the contrary, if you act like you are ready to die, or even verbally insult the other person, you will be respected, and you will be considered a person with integrity, and then you will be tied with a rope, treated as a distinguished guest, sent back as a gift, or kept for your own use!
Not only do such things exist, there are quite a lot of them. After all, those heroes and warriors are still more popular than those who are greedy for life and afraid of death.
In Chinese history, for example, many generals of the Cao Ying Group during the Three Kingdoms period: Zhang Liao, Zhang He, and Yang Jiye in the early Song Dynasty, etc., were all descended from generals, but in the end they were all appreciated, and even became famous in history.
Therefore, these prisoners followed suit and acted arrogantly and rudely, hoping to save their lives and maybe become successful. Unfortunately, they guessed wrong. Wang Yu sometimes talked a lot, but he didn't mind being open to others. One side, especially valuable people.
However, if the value is not enough, then Wang Yu may not be soft on you!
"Surrender! Or not!"...
