As soon as the staff member finished speaking, Shi Wenhui quickly followed: "Yes, General, although Shi is not talented, he only hopes to help the army to show Dong'an's heart."
Taking the initiative to open the city is a credit, and helping the Qin army is another credit. Since Shi Wenhui has decided to submit, he naturally needs these urgently to gain chips for his future official position.
This suggestion from the staff is actually feasible. If King Ling fled eastward, he would definitely have to transport away gold and silver, and he would definitely have many chariots and horses accompanying him, as well as beauties from the harem, some officials' families, etc.
Such a team cannot move fast no matter what.
On the upper right side of Dong'an is Taoshan, which is the only way for Lingzhou's eastern front. As long as the intelligence is correct, Tang Yue will send troops from Dong'an. With the speed of Qin's cavalry, they can intercept and kill King Ling in the wild.
However, after Tang Yue thought for a while, he refused and said, "Sir, although it is feasible, the importance of the Spiritual King is related to the unification of the mountains and rivers. Tang has received the king's order and does not dare to be negligent in the slightest. It is better to station in Taoshan."
"This." The staff became a little anxious and tried their best to persuade: "General, if tens of thousands of troops are stationed in Taoshan, King Ling will definitely know about it. Just imagine, if he knows that the general is intercepting Taoshan, will he still die?"
He continued: "As for Tunliu Dong'an, we can use the speed of the cavalry to hit the Spirit King halfway and catch him off guard. By then, the credit for capturing the Spirit King will belong to the general."
When Tang Yue heard this, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart. Being able to capture the Spirit King alive was certainly very attractive.
His mind was spinning, and he thought about it for a long time before saying, "No, this final battle situation is crucial. Your Majesty has given it to me, so there is no room for any mistakes."
"But it is very likely that King Ling will not dare to station troops in Taoshan. This huge achievement will be missed." The staff continued.
Tang Yue said sternly: "This has elements of danger. If King Ling escapes, Tang will be blamed for his death! Furthermore, how can one person's contribution be compared with the overall situation?"
He said it seriously without any hesitation, which was what made Tang Yue more attractive.
"But general..." The staff wanted to persuade him again, because if it succeeded, he could also follow suit and benefit from the glory.
But Tang Yue interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "Sir, there is no need to say any more, I have made up my mind."
"This." The staff member looked anxious and subconsciously looked at Shi Wenhui.
The latter pondered for a moment and said: "Since the general has decided, we must comply with it. After the general establishes troops in Taoshan, Dong'an will also provide all logistical conveniences."
Tang Yue was naturally happy when he spoke like this. He clasped his fists seriously and said, "In this case, there is Lord Lao Shi."
"General, your words are serious. This is a matter within my own department. I will definitely help you." Shi Wenhui quickly followed suit and handed over his hand.
Dong'an's surrender was equivalent to completely cutting off King Ling's retreat. After Tang Yue talked with Shi Wenhui, he also led a large force to Taoshan that day.
Although he is brave and invincible across the battlefield, he seems to be brave but without any plan, but there is detail in his roughness. In order to prevent some changes in Dong'an, he has even left an army.
The cavalry was extremely fast, and that afternoon, Tang Yue had already joined the Qin general who was one step ahead.
Taoshan is not a city, but a main road. Because the hillsides on both sides of the official road are covered with peach trees, it is named Taoshan.
The Qin general's name is Miao Xin. He is in his thirties. He has followed Xiao Yuan since he started his army. It can be said that he has fought all the way and has extremely rich battlefield experience.
The place he chose to station was good and in line with conventional military laws. After the two met, he also asked someone to unfold the map, pointed at it and said: "General, please look, this is where our army is stationed."
Then he clicked on Lingzhou and moved to the right, "If King Ling flees eastward, he must first go to the Taoshan area, and when he gets here, he has two ways to go. The first is the official road, which will directly face me. Army, second, is this way.”
Miao Xin continued to point to the map: "If he takes the second route, our army can also intercept and kill him in the wild from the northern route."
"Well..." Tang Yue still held the riding whip in his hand and nodded while listening, and at the same time looked around, "The environment here is really good, I hope it can become the burial place of the Spirit King. "
Then he added: "Send a letter to the king immediately and report the details."
"No." Miao Xin cupped his fists.
At the same time, Ruizhou Mansion.
Lin Chu came quickly, and just as he was waiting to salute, Xiao Yuan asked aloud: "How is it? Has Han Feng's body been found?"
"Based on the clues and some characteristics left by Chen Jing, it has been completely determined. Although it has been found, Han Feng was thrown into a mass grave..."
Xiao Yuan couldn't bear to listen any more, raised his hand to stop him, took a deep breath and said: "Comb Han Feng, mobilize some soldiers, escort the coffin back to the country, and let it return to its roots. After setting up a monument, he wrote: General Qin Jianwei, posthumously granted the title of earl. , sent a letter to the royal court to provide support to his family members."
"My lord, thank the king for Han Feng's kindness!" Lin Chu knelt down directly, his eyes red, because he and Han Feng had known each other since they were children and both grew up in Xuecheng.
The intelligence front is different from the frontal battlefield. Although it is a secret activity, without the sacrifices of these people, there would be no victory in the entire war. Their contribution is beyond doubt.
In Han Feng's case, he not only protected the top secrets of the intelligence line, but also cooperated with the delivery of intelligence many times, allowing important military information to be delivered to the Qin army's camp in a timely manner. If he lived until the founding of the country, he would at least be a viscount and a fourth-grade general.
As for the deceased heroes, the posthumous title is usually one level higher, and this earl has no problem.
After dealing with this, Xiao Yuan pulled up Lin Chu who was kneeling on the ground and said seriously: "Han Feng has sacrificed his life for the country. Chen Jing must not let anything happen to him again. Once the news comes back from Tang Yue, Chen Jing will be completely hidden." Get up, don’t risk passing on irrelevant information.”
"Wei Chen, take your orders!" Lin Chu was very moved.
After the unification of the world, the founding of the country and the granting of titles, there will definitely be a number of generals with titles emerging from Lin Chu's military aircraft camp, there is no doubt about this.
In fact, at this time, the morale of the Qin army, both generals and soldiers, was at its highest point, because victory was right in front of them, and no one wanted to make contributions.
The next day, Lingdu, Lingwang Palace.
At this time, the Spirit King was almost ready to escape eastward. In the study, Murong Hongye was reporting on the assassination of Huo Lian and others.
After hearing this, the Spirit King said coldly: "Has everything been dealt with?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Huo Lian and other traitors have all been executed, and there is no one alive in his mansion." Murong Hongye said.
"Where are their retainers?" King Ling asked again.
"This." Murong Hongye lowered his body slightly: "Many disciples fled and dispersed. Due to time constraints, I..."
"Forget it." King Ling raised his hand to interrupt him. Just as he was about to speak again, a guard came to report: "Your Majesty, Lord Cheng Ping wants to see you."
