Yuan Jun's generals Yuan Chonghuan, Yan Liang and others died in battle successively, causing most of Yuan Jun's already low morale to lose the courage to resist, howling and running away, or throwing away their weapons and kowtow to surrender.
"Kill, capture Yuan Chu alive!"
There were loud shouts of killing from all directions, the ground was rumbling and shaking, and countless cavalry were rolling in like landslides and tsunamis, shouting loudly.
Li Cunxiao, Yuwen Chengdu, Gao Chong, Yue Yun, Yang Zaixing and other brave generals took the lead and charged immediately, waving their weapons in all directions and harvesting heads wantonly. Ordinary soldiers of the Sui Dynasty were inspired by the general and were unstoppable. They waved their sharp sabers, stabbed Han Xing's long sword, and roared like thunder. They killed Yuan Jun with blood flying everywhere, and he ran away with his head in his arms.
"Hold on, hold on, don't retreat!"
Yuan Shao was already furious at this time. He stamped his feet and roared at the top of his lungs. He kept slashing the air with his sword, as if this could turn the tide of the battle. But at this moment, there are not many people in this team organized by the private soldiers of Hebei nobles who are willing to obey Yuan Shao's orders. Many generals from aristocratic families gathered their own private troops to protect themselves and fled north.
But now, how can these people escape? Yang Gao knew very well that Yuan Shao's army was composed of private soldiers from Hebei families. Once the army was defeated, these people would quickly flee back to their hometowns, taking advantage of their local power to hide themselves and wait for opportunities.
And now Zhu Yuanzhang has led his army to run away. If Yuan Shao's 100,000 troops cannot be completely annihilated, then Yang Gao's Hebei conquest was really loud and heavy, without even a decent harvest, and there will be no need for it in the future. The imperial conquest continued.
Four generals, Zhang Xian, Zhang Liao, Zhang He, and Lu Xiangsheng, had already received orders from Yang Gao and led their troops to detour to block Yuan's army's retreat route.
"Brothers, rush over if you want to survive!"
Seeing that the way was blocked, the children of these aristocratic families also became furious and rushed forward, shouting.
Looking at the private soldiers of the aristocratic family charging in front of them as if they were ready to die, Zhang Xian and the other four generals had sneers on their faces. How could a group of slaves raised by a wealthy family be the opponent of a lion who has fought a hundred battles?
With a fierce shot, Yuan's army suddenly fell on its back and its formation was in chaos. Then it was intercepted and cut into several sections by the swarming Sui army.
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Zhang Xian has entered the brave state, the force is +4, the basic force is 98, and the current force has increased to 102."
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Zhang He has entered a fighting state, the force is +4, the base force is 95, and the current force has increased to 99."
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Zhang Liao has entered the formation breaking state, the force is +5, the base force is 97, and the current force has increased to 102."
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Lu Xiangsheng has entered a violent state, his force is +3, his base force is 93, and his current force has increased to 96."
The four generals Zhang Xian, Zhang Liao, Zhang He, and Lu Xiangsheng were all famous and brave generals in their respective eras. They were brave and brave. The dead horse neighs.
"No fight, no fight, we surrender! We surrender!"
The battle lasted only half an hour. Under the overwhelming offensive of the Sui army, Yuan Jun's psychological defense completely collapsed. Countless soldiers howled and threw away their weapons and shouted to surrender.
Witnessing the evolution of the battlefield situation, Yang Gao immediately said: "Pass the decree and order all generals to accept surrender. Anyone who kills the captives without authorization will be punished for the crime of rebellion!"
"Your Majesty, wait!"
At this moment, Jia Xu, who had slightly closed his eyes, suddenly said: "We think that Hebei has gone through wars and its reputation has declined. His Majesty gathered the surrendered soldiers because he wanted to wait for Hebei to be pacified, and then release them to their hometowns to work as farmers and restore Hebei." People’s livelihood?”
"good!"
Yang Gao nodded slightly, "Does Jia Aiqing think there's anything wrong?"
Jia Xu said calmly: "Have you forgotten, your Majesty, that most of these people are private soldiers of aristocratic families? If they are allowed to return to their hometowns, will they be able to work peacefully in farming?"
"I almost forgot about this!"
Yang Gao suddenly understood and asked immediately: "How does Jia Aiqing think I should deal with it?"
"Of course the surrendered pawns still have to be collected."
Jia Xu still said in that calm tone: "But I think that Your Majesty can only surrender soldiers and never recruit generals. Most of those generals are leaders of private soldiers. As long as they don't die, the people below will never dare to obey His Majesty's arrangements."
Secondly, after collecting the soldiers, there is no need to rush to release them back to their hometowns to work as farmers. King Zhenyue (Yang Ye) besieged Yecheng, but suffered from lack of manpower. From time to time, the defenders of Yecheng had elite cavalry to break out to contact Zhu Yuanzhang. Your Majesty can send these surrendered soldiers to Ye County to dig trenches for King Zhen Yue and completely trap Ye County.
And His Majesty can also take advantage of this time to go north to deal with the Hebei family. Without private soldiers, the family is like a toothless tiger, which can be destroyed with a flip of a hand. When your Majesty handles this matter, he will send the surrendered soldiers back to their hometowns, and reward them with land and money for their efforts in besieging Ye County. In this way, Hebei can be settled. "
"Jia Aiqing's plan is very clever!"
Yang Gao praised, but suddenly frowned and said: "It's just that the surrender of soldiers is not accepted by the general. Now I have no generals around me, so this order cannot be issued explicitly, otherwise the leaders of the private soldiers and the children of the aristocratic families will fight to the death to resist." , it only adds a lot of casualties, but it makes me a little embarrassed!"
"Your Majesty, I am a villain but I am willing to share your worries for Your Majesty!"
At this moment, a junior commander of the imperial army beside Yang Gao suddenly recommended himself, "Tang Bin is not talented. He has indeed been familiar with bows and crossbows since he was a child. The brothers under his command have also been tutored by Tang, so they can definitely help your majesty solve your problems!" "
Tang Bin!
Yang Gao was immediately overjoyed when he heard this. Several characters he had summoned recently did not appear for a long time, which made Yang Gao feel a little distressed about the summoning points. Unexpectedly, he came out to solve Yang Gao's urgent need at this critical moment. It was really good steel used on the blade.
Think about this Tang Bin, but he is also a great hero in Water Margin. He is one of the "Three Heroes of Pudong" along with Dadao Guan Sheng. His archery skills are also among the best in Water Margin. He can also shoot arrows with secret messages in the dark. Go to Guanxia Sentai's butt room. Moreover, he was loyal and would rather die than retreat to save his brothers, which was more than a level higher than many Liangshan military generals who were ranked as Tiangang Disha but had outrageous personalities.
At that moment, Yang Gao said immediately: "When I conquered Xiao Xian, Long Zhi recommended himself as a pawn, and that's why we are here today. Since you dare to boast in front of me today, I believe you are the second Long Zhi." , if you have done this for me, I will definitely reward you heavily!"
"General, thank you for your trust!"
Tang Bin was overjoyed when he heard this. He immediately led a hundred and ten men under his command. Each of them carried strong bows and crossbows on their backs and rushed towards the battlefield like the wind.
