King Nannan was an ambitious man. He surrendered to the Miao Kingdom so that he could become the King of Shu, but he was also a smart man.
The other party did this simply to take advantage of this opportunity to directly recruit the surrendered Shu people, and at the same time, use this unfair treatment on the battlefield to win over their hearts.
This move is very cruel!
"High Priest, what you're doing is tantamount to pushing our Shu soldiers into the fire pit. Have you ever considered that if you provoke them like this, they will become even more rebellious!"
"At this moment, we can only patiently appease them so that they can continue fighting instead of surrendering to the enemy!"
However, High Priest Luo Fei disagreed. He snorted coldly, "Spies ahead report that many have already been tempted. This general believes that appeasing them is useless. They should be severely punished!"
"They warned that anyone who dared to actually do this would not be forgiven!"
"Let's see who is unlucky in the end."
“…”
King Nannan knew that he could no longer persuade the high priest. The high priest was a stubborn and arrogant man who believed that he was invincible on the battlefield and did not need any strategies.
Poor soldiers under his command, they all surrendered with him innocently, but unexpectedly, they were treated unfairly in return.
It is precisely because of this unfair treatment that the high priest is narrow-minded and not particularly generous.
This led to a lack of morale among the people, and the enemy took advantage of this loophole.
Now he finally understood why it was that eunuch who was commanding the battle. This eunuch was definitely an expert at seeing into people's hearts and could guess people's thoughts so clearly.
At this moment, the high priest's words were heard again on the battlefield. Anyone who dared to rebel would be killed without mercy, and no mercy would be given to them!
The psychological defenses of the Shu soldiers were already on the verge of collapse, and now hearing the high priest's request, it was simply unable to withstand their already broken hearts.
Things have come to this, why should they continue to work for such a high priest of the Miao Kingdom? They simply choose to rebel!
Some people joined the enemy camp directly during the fight, while others ran to the rear directly during the fight.
Some people, during the fight, turned directly against their own brothers.
In short, after the first person was lost, the second person would appear, and slowly more and more people joined in, and they ran in groups towards the camp of the Great Zhou.
General Zhang was extremely happy as he saw that his troops were increasing in number, and he shouted anxiously.
"Come back, my sons and daughters of Shu. We are all Shu people. There is no need to reach out to our own people for the sake of other countries."
"That's all. We are all Shu people, so we should fight for Shu!"
As the Zhou army fought more and more, the Miao army became smaller and smaller.
Many people noticed something was wrong, and the generals who were charging in the front had no idea what to do.
He wanted to stop them, but there were too many people. He couldn't stop them at all, nor could he kill them all. Seeing that their number was decreasing, he had no choice but to retreat.
However, it is too late to retreat now, and no one will listen to him!
Even though they were retreating, and the Ming army had already withdrawn its troops, there were still many Shu soldiers charging forward, heading directly towards the enemy camp, like crazy.
Especially after hearing General Zhang's cry, they felt that what General Zhang said was so true, and they had no reason to continue working for the Miao Kingdom.
Looking at the collapsed army, the high priest was stunned, but he snorted coldly.
He said to the King of Nan'an with disdain, "I've said it before, your Shu soldiers are a bunch of rabble. Surrendering is useless. Instead, you will directly rebel against the enemy and strengthen them!"
"If I had known this would happen, I should have killed them all in advance. I wanted to see what else they were capable of."
The words surprised the King of Nan'an. He stood up and shouted angrily, "High Priest, don't forget that the Shu army surrendered because of the conditions you gave us!"
"You didn't keep your promise and instead treated us unfairly. Naturally, we're resentful, yet you're here spouting these big words."
"Didn't I tell you not to provoke them? You should patiently appease them, but what did you do?!"
The high priest couldn't care less. He looked at the defeated army and had no idea what to do.
Even the Miao generals who were charging at the front were killed by the rebel army and treated as gifts.
With only a few military supervisors and their own Miao generals left on the battlefield, most of the soldiers fled to the Great Zhou.
This magnificent scene also left them speechless.
At the same time, above the Tianmen Pass city gate.
Lu Yun was very pleased to see this scene! Just by using the power of words, he was able to get these Shu soldiers to come to his side. It was really good.
On the side, Shangguan Yan said with a flattering look on her face, "Eunuch Lu is still the best."
"Just by breaking through their psychological defenses and just saying a few words, I was able to directly determine the direction of the battlefield."
"That's amazing! This is incredible! I'm so impressed! Only someone as talented as Eunuch Lu could pull this off."
The flattering look left Lu Yun speechless, "Shut up."
"If your father knew you were flattering people like this, I wonder if he would beat you."
"Learn patiently and see how this eunuch does it. You should do the same next time you fight a war. Don't be like before and almost wet your pants out of fear."
"A qualified general not only has to fight in battle, but also be able to command a large army. The more people you have, the happier you are, understand?"
Shangguan Yan smiled awkwardly. He certainly knew that the general's duty was on the battlefield, and he would really lose his composure.
Especially when there are more people, he doesn't know how to distribute them.
"alright!"
"Sound the retreat and prepare to receive these surrendering soldiers. Thoroughly investigate their systems and have General Zhang properly place them."
"Another point is that among these surrendered soldiers, there must absolutely not be any Miao soldiers."
"At the same time, we must be fair to them and treat them a little better. Do you understand?"
"Yes, General."
Looking at this shocking scene, Liang Jing said with admiration: "Xiao Yunzi, I find that you are becoming more and more powerful now."
"It seems that commanding a battle is truly a talent unique to one person. Just talking about it on paper will never allow you to reach your level."
Lu Yun thought that this was not because he was talented, but because he had read too many military books.
I really thought that all the time I read those books and watched those TV dramas was in vain.
"Your Majesty, isn't that impressive? Do you want a reward?"
"What?"
"Tonight, I'll serve you well."
"Get out! Believe it or not, I will kill you."
