Chapter 271 Great Victory
At this time, in the southeast corner of Changbai City,
corpses and armor were piled up into a small mountain, lying pitifully in the river of blood. The strong smell spread, making people almost unable to open their eyes.
Jiang Fengze clenched the iron sword and stared straight ahead.
It was not until he heard the black armored soldiers shouting like a tsunami that he came to his senses and knelt on one knee as if he had lost all his strength.
"We won, we really won!" Jiang Fengze's teeth were trembling, and tears could not help but flow.
Xiao Lanyi tore off the robe stained with the blood of the enemy, fell on his shoulders, and panted heavily.
"Well! We risked our lives and beat them. Finally... we won this battle and can go home safely!"
After that, the two young men hugged each other and buried their faces in each other's shoulders, not daring to think about how they had spent the past few days.
"The national teacher asked us to be the vanguard, pretending to underestimate the enemy and using a sleight of hand to confuse the northern thieves. This method is really useful." When he raised his head again, Jiang Fengze's eyes revealed deep admiration.
Xiao Lanyi was very tired, she lay down with her head raised and smiled, "If not for this, how could the Pibei people underestimate the enemy and even think of pursuing the victory, but ended up falling into our trap and being killed by us without a single piece of armor left."
Just three days ago, Mu Yihan made a series of plans. Not only did he ambush the army behind the crossroads overnight, he also led the troops to pretend to attack.
Because the people in the Liaodong camp did not understand the formation and could not join the ambush, Mu Yihan just picked them and took them to act as a deception.
At first, the Pibei soldiers were worried about being deceived and did not dare to attack rashly.
But after seeing Mu Yihan's face clearly, they all became excited and wanted to take down the ruler of the Southern Dynasty!
Jiang Fengze and his hundreds of men lured the Beibei soldiers into a fight, but they fought and retreated all the way, deliberately leaving their armor and weapons behind, pretending to be panicked and afraid of fighting.
When they retreated to the vicinity of the pass, the black-armored cavalry rushed out, attacking from the front and back, trampling the Beibei soldiers to death.
Then, Mu Yihan ordered the army to put on the Beibei soldiers' armor and approach the Beibei camp.
When the Beibei soldiers who stayed in the camp found that someone was wrong, it was too late to form a battle line.
The black-armored soldiers were extremely brave, and they killed nearly half of them with an overwhelming momentum.
Mu Yihan was standing in front of the camp at that time, looking at the captives begging for mercy, with a murderous aura, "Anyone who dares to offend our Nanji Kingdom will only end up dead."
"Everyone listen up, don't leave anyone alive, avenge the dead and injured civilians and soldiers!"
Then, in the time of an incense stick, the entire Xibei camp became a sea of blood and a mountain of corpses.
Nanji Kingdom won completely.
It can be called a perfect victory.
"Long live the national teacher!"
"Long live Nanji Kingdom!"
At this moment, the soldiers raised their swords and guns, shouting loudly.
Mu Yihan looked at the crowd, but his expression was extremely calm, and he just waved at the inner palace messenger.
"Go get a handkerchief and wipe the blood off my body."
"Remember, don't take the old handkerchief with the plum blossom embroidered on it." As if he suddenly remembered something, he immediately reminded her.
After Ali nodded in response, Mu Yihan turned around, his eyes showing deep thought.
Counting carefully, he hadn't been to the battlefield for three years, and the last time was when he and Shen Wansheng separated...
Returning to the battlefield, some memories buried deep inside had to be pulled out forcefully, making Mu Yihan's heart ache.
Three years ago, he was assassinated by a villain in the court. With a heart full of loyalty and righteousness, he led an army of 100,000 to a battle that was destined to be fatal...
After several tortures, the only thing that kept him alive was his pregnant wife and his unborn daughter.
Unfortunately, after returning to the court, all he saw was Shen Wan's tombstone...
At this time, Ali handed over a handkerchief, and Mu Yihan slowly took it and wiped the blood off his face.
"Wipe it clean, Wanwan used to hate blood the most." Mu Yihan said softly.
The people around were still cheering and celebrating, and Qingxuan stood aside, waiting for half a day, and finally couldn't help asking Ali.
"Shouldn't we reward the soldiers and then lead the army back to the capital? Why didn't the Imperial Master give any orders and just stood there?"
Ali was used to it and sighed, "Maybe our Master is thinking of his late wife again... After all, it was because he had to lead the army to fight last time that they separated. Who would have thought that they would be separated forever after returning."
Qingxuan was a homeless man. After hearing this, he couldn't help but nod with emotion.
"So that's the case. The last time the Imperial Master went to war, he lost his beloved. I hope this great victory will give him a new beginning."
Ali nodded secretly.
He also hoped that the gap in the Imperial Master's heart would be filled by his loved ones one day.
At this time, hearing the two people muttering not far away, Mu Yihan forced himself to pull back his thoughts. After his expression regained its composure, he shouted.
"Ali, pass on my order!"
"For this great victory, all soldiers and generals will be awarded second-class merits, and rewards will be given according to the number of enemy heads cut off!"
As soon as this order was announced, there was a burst of cheers.
As for the Liaodong Camp and others, Mu Yihan appreciated their loyalty and bravery, and also intended to use them in the future.
"Appoint Liaodong Camp Commander Jiang Fengze and Governor Xiao Lanyi as Marquis of Guanwai, and reward them with 100 mu of fertile land. Reward Liaodong Camp soldiers with 100 taels of silver and a lapis lazuli ring each."
"I heard that Liaodong Camp Commander Jiang Fengze is from the Jiang family that Duke Song once mentioned. If so, I can go to the Jiang family and announce my will in front of their whole family." Mu Yihan said.
Upon learning that they were going to be conferred the title of Marquis of Guanwai, Jiang Fengze and Xiao Lanyi widened their eyes, simply daring to think about it.
Especially since the dignified national teacher had to personally go to Dalui Village, it made them feel like they were being blessed!
But at this moment, two attendants on fast horses suddenly rushed to the front of the camp.
"Report! Master Imperial Master, there is news from Sanqing Temple."
"The immortal you are looking for has finally returned from his travels!"
