Xu Meng also agreed: "Your Majesty, I feel that what Prime Minister Wang said is correct. Our army should take advantage of the victory and pursue it."

Um!

Dongfang Yu couldn't help but nodded.

"Send an order and write a letter to General Liu Wenwen, ordering him to raise troops at seven o'clock tomorrow morning and then join our army at the gate of Dengzhou City."

Polo was defeated at this time, which even Zhanjun himself did not expect. Polo withdrew his troops from the city gates for a few days, and was easily captured by Liu Wenwen, even! A sword without bloodshed.

Unexpectedly, Polo, who had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, was not killed by the enemy, but was kidnapped by his men.

Dongfang Yu's messenger quickly conveyed the news to Liu Wenwen's tent overnight.

Seven o'clock in the morning the next day!

Liu Wenwen rebelled at four o'clock, had a meal at five o'clock, and rested for half an hour. After the 70,000-strong army left the city gate in a mighty manner, the city gate was taken over by Dengzhou native troops.

And this place is not very far from Dengzhou City. The distance of sixty or seventy miles can be resisted by a three-hour rapid march.

At this time, the Qin army, led by Dongfang Yu, was full of momentum and full of fighting spirit. It was already a winning streak, and the Qin army's fighting spirit had already reached its peak. It was sharp and sharp.

Especially after so many victorious battles, one still hasn’t drifted off. This is the greatest advantage.

Huangpao Army scouts were dispatched from Dengzhou, one team to detect the movements of Liu Wenwen's army, and the other team to detect the movements of King Qin's army.

And this time! The two armies advanced at the same time, but the yellow-robed army trembled. Liu Wenwen's army of more than 70,000 soldiers defeated Polo's army on the battlefield. They retreated in consecutive battles and could not raise their heads. After taking the city pass, their momentum was very high.

Not to mention the King of Qin, who swept through the four overlords of Northern Liang and defeated millions of Liao troops, abandoning their helmets and armor. He then led his army to attack thousands of miles, returned to the capital of Emperor Luo Qi to save King Qin, and then went to Wanzhou to fight without any success. . This kind of army can be called the best army in the world, and it is not something that the yellow robe army can resist.

There are a total of more than 130,000 troops on both sides, all of which are elite. How can the 100,000 yellow-robed troops in Dengzhou be able to resist at this time. No! Even Zhang Kun's 120,000 troops and Jia Boluo's 100,000 troops were defeated. How long can the remaining 100,000 troops resist?

Isn't that nonsense?

Do whatever it takes to get yourself killed.

Dengzhou City Palace...

At this time, in Dengzhou City, the yellow-robed Dengzhou Governor's War Army was sitting in the lobby, and all the leaders of Dengzhou City, big and small, gathered here.

Hearing that the two armies were approaching Dengzhou City so quickly, the whole army was filled with panic and restlessness.

Especially the Zhan Army, as the commander-in-chief of the Dengzhou Yellow Robe Army, he was the most miserable. The arrogance that he had before was no longer the same when he took the initiative and sought death. The pride disappeared without a trace.

At this time, he was already frightened when facing the fierce military and Qin troops.

You can't fight again and again, and you can't retreat again and again.

But what to do.

Zhan Jun glanced at the people in the hall with deep eyes. Originally, they were summoned to discuss strategies to retreat from the enemy, but what happened! The whole lobby was depressing.

"Let's talk about it! Now that the soldiers are pressing in, let's talk about what we should do? Is there any good medicine that can repel the enemy?" Zhan Jun looked at everyone, his tone was trembling, as if he wanted to ask for help.

this……

The commanders below were just staring, you looked at me, I looked at you, but they couldn't even make a sound.

I really don’t know how to answer Zhan Jun’s question.

It would have been better if the two armies had just fought, but now they are completely defeated. The 400,000 troops are almost gone, and only 100,000 troops are left in Dengzhou City.

And they are all elites of the Yellow Robe Army, so they can be considered elites! certainly! Compared with the Qin army and the Wu army, they are nothing.

Moreover, the supply of food and grass is a big problem at this time. If the enemy forces dominate Dengzhou City on all sides, their troops cannot go out to plunder the people's food for their own use, and sooner or later they will starve to death in Dengzhou City. So! This still cannot change the result of the destruction of Dengzhou City.

At this time, someone finally couldn't help but speak. Facing the undefeated and aggressive Qin army, he was almost driven to death, "My Lord Governor, in my opinion, it's better not to fight!"

"What do you mean?" Someone stood up immediately and looked at him with a blushing face.

"What do I mean? Okay, then let's make it clear that the Qin army is powerful. How long did it take to get from Wanzhou to Dengzhou? Who can stop it? Cannons, muskets, crossbows, so many elite weapons... With our 100,000-strong army, we will be defeated sooner or later."

"Rather than struggling to death in a meaningless way, it is better to surrender quickly. Moreover! The King of Qin's policy towards the enemy has been very clear, that is, there is only one chance to surrender. After one time, it will be a massacre of the city."

"By then, everyone will die." The man cursed in a cursing tone, as if he had eaten gunpowder.

The generals present also fell into silence.

Why did they join the Yellow Robe Army in the first place? Isn’t it just for eating and living a good life?

Things are different now. Not only do I not have enough to eat, but I also have to be on tenterhooks every day. Who can bear this? Instead of harming the common people and harming your own people, it is better to surrender and go home and live a peaceful life.

Especially in Qin, I heard that those who surrender can take their families and go to Beiliang. Beiliang, which was governed by the King of Qin as a fertile land, was a place where many common people wanted to set foot.

"I'm willing to surrender too!"

"I'm willing to wait too!"

After one person made the move to surrender, in an instant, like a chain reaction, everyone knelt on the ground and begged the war army to surrender.

"Lord Governor, surrender!"

"We are no match for King Qin."

Good guy, this is what Zhanjun means.

actually! He had long wanted to surrender. If you weren't a general, I'm afraid! You have to be the first one to surrender.

only! He was just looking for a stepping stone!

this……

Zhanjun deliberately hesitated and pretended not to surrender.

"Governor, don't hesitate, vote!"

Seeing Zhan Jun hesitate, someone urged him again.

well!

Zhan Jun sighed and said deliberately: "For the sake of all the soldiers...then...surrender!"

"Come here! Immediately write a letter to the King of Qin, saying that Zhanjun, leading an army of 100,000 people from Dengzhou City, is willing to surrender."

promise!

Then, he wrote a surrender edict and handed it to the messenger.

At this time, the Qin army was only ten miles away from Dengzhou City. The yellow-robed messenger happened to encounter the Qin army and handed over the surrender edict.

"Hahaha!"

"This war army has some brains! Surrender voluntarily!"

"Forget it! After taking down Dengzhou City, the next step is to wipe out the entire territory of Dengzhou. It's really satisfying to take down Dengzhou without losing any blood." Dongfang Yu laughed, obviously being caught off guard by the war army's operation.

I originally thought that we would have to fight a bloody battle, but now it's better. A sword without bloodshed is exactly what Dongfang Yu wants to see.
