This is the Northern Army.
After a few days, the two thousand infantrymen who escorted the prisoners back also caught up.
Yun Zheng had also received the message from Jia Yao through Bai Falcon.
Jia Yao and Yu Shizhong joined forces and defeated the enemy again.
However, Jia Yao has not yet told you the specific losses and spoils of war.
But for Yun Zheng, it was enough to know that another enemy army had been defeated.
"Your Highness, a small group of enemy cavalry is galloping towards us. They are waving white flags and seem to be surrendering!"
Yun Zheng, who was discussing the next plan with others, received news sent back by Qu Zhi's deputy general.
white flag?
Yun Zheng and the others were delighted at the same time.
...
...
"How many enemy troops are there?"
Yun Zheng asked immediately.
"About a thousand people!"
The messenger answered immediately.
"Let's go and take a look!"
Yun Zheng didn't say much and immediately got on the horse.
Surrender is good!
Although there are only about a thousand people, it’s a good start!
Whenever someone surrenders, the enemy's morale drops.
If someone takes the lead, more people will surrender later.
It seems that the news of the defeat of another Guifang army has already reached here.
Soon, they came to the front army.
In the distance, the Guifang cavalry led by Tuohuan and his son had slowed down and were slowly approaching them.
In addition to waving the white flag, many people also raised their hands to show their sincerity in surrendering.
Yun Zheng gave Qu Zhi a wink, and Qu Zhi understood and immediately led his troops to surround them.
As the Northern Army surrounded them, the Guifang cavalry dismounted one after another.
Soon, Tuohuan and his son were brought before Yun Zheng.
"Tuohuan (Mundo) pays homage to King Jingbei..."
The father and son were very humble and knelt on the ground as soon as they came up.
"Please stand up, both of you."
Yun Zheng smiled.
Tuohuan stood up with the help of Mondo and bowed respectfully, "I have come here with my son and the soldiers of my clan to surrender. I beg Your Majesty to take me in..."
"The Prime Minister has taken up arms, and I welcome it!" Yun Zheng laughed. "We'll talk about the rest later. I heard that the Prime Minister was whipped by Tuo Lin. How is his injury?"
Tuo Huan was extremely terrified and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. It's just a minor injury, not worth mentioning."
"This is no minor injury."
Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled, "I have some healing items in my hand that can prevent the Prime Minister's wound from festering! Miaoyin, you arrange for someone to treat the Prime Minister's wound first, and I will talk to your son first."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Tuohuan bowed again and gave Mondo a wink.
They led their troops to surrender, and he didn't know how Yun Zheng would arrange them, so he could only ask Mondo to be careful with his words.
Soon, Miaoyin asked two guards to take Tuohuan away.
Yun Zheng invited Mondo to come aside and sit on the ground.
"I am guilty and dare not sit down."
Mondo felt a little uneasy.
Although Yun Zheng behaved very kindly, everyone knew that this prestigious King Jingbei was not a good man.
"What do you mean by guilty? You are the ones who took the lead in the uprising, and you have done a great deed!"
Yun Zheng waved his hand, "Sit down! Tell me about the current situation of Tuo Lin's troops."
After Yun Zheng's repeated invitation, Mondo sat down carefully and told Yun Zheng about the situation of the Guifang in detail.
The morale of the Guifang army was very low, and the entire army only wanted to retreat and had no intention of fighting again.
At present, the Guifang plan to seize the Oron Highlands and then withdraw to the Guifang territory via the Uburu Desert.
As for the territory of the Quanrong, the Guifang now dare not even think about it.
After Mondo finished speaking, Yun Zheng couldn't help but wonder, "Don't you know that the Muliju army was defeated?"
"What? Muliju and his men were defeated?"
Mondo exclaimed and looked at Yun Zheng in disbelief.
Um?
Yun Zheng was even more surprised.
Looking at Mundo's appearance, it doesn't look like he's pretending!
So, wasn't it because of the news of Muliju's disastrous defeat that Tuohuan and his son led their troops to surrender?
Haha, this is interesting!
Before the news of Muliju's disastrous defeat arrived, Tuohuan and his son led their troops to surrender.
If the news of Muliju's disastrous defeat spreads to their army, and I put some pressure on them, their morale will probably collapse, right?
This is a good opportunity!
Yun Zheng pondered silently in his heart, and then said solemnly: "This king has received accurate information. The 40,000 troops led by Muliju have been defeated miserably. If nothing unexpected happens, the news will reach Tuo Lin's ears in just one or two days."
Mondo pondered silently for a while, and his expression suddenly changed, "I'm afraid this news has already reached Tuo Lin's ears!"
"Well, what does that mean?"
Yun Zheng was curious.
"Your Highness, you may not know that when my father and I led our troops to flee, there were pursuers behind us. But halfway through, the pursuers suddenly turned back! I guess that the pursuers may have heard the news that Muliju and his men were defeated..."
Mondo carefully recalled the situation at that time, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why the pursuers suddenly retreated.
At that time, they were still a long distance away from the Northern Army. The pursuers wouldn't be worried about being ambushed by the Northern Army, right?
Listening to Mondo's words, Yun Zheng couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
According to the time, if the defeated soldiers from Muliju ran faster, the news of the defeat should have reached Tuoliang's ears by now.
Yun Zheng thought for a moment and quickly stood up. "Then you take your people to eat something and rest. I will go to arrange some things! Tell your people that as long as they work hard for me, I will never treat them unfairly! As for how to arrange for you and your son, you don't need to worry about it. In the future, I will also need someone to help me govern the ghosts..."
Yun Zheng didn't make his words very clear, but he believed that Mondo already understood what he meant.
Tuohuan is the prime minister of Guifang, and he must be very good at governing the country.
If Tuohuan could gain his trust, he really wouldn't mind supporting Tuohuan to take the position!
Mondo stood up quickly, "Farewell, Your Majesty!"
Not long after, Tuohuan, who had treated his wounds, found Mundo.
"What did King Jingbei ask?"
Tuohuan pulled his son aside and asked in a low voice.
Mondo didn't dare to hide it and immediately told Tuohuan what he and Yun Zheng had talked about.
Tuohuan did not seem too surprised at the disastrous defeat of the other army.
It is difficult to deal with Jia Yao alone, let alone now there is Yun Zheng.
The Guifang were timid and afraid to fight, but it was difficult for them to retreat.
Defeat is only a matter of time.
Perhaps, since Qiuchi and Dayue suffered a disastrous defeat at the Sulu River, Guifang’s defeat was doomed.
What surprised him even more was that Yun Zheng only asked Mondo such a few questions.
Yun Zheng didn't even try to test Mundo?
Doesn’t Yun Zheng suspect that they are pretending to surrender?
Or, whether they were pretending to surrender or not, it didn’t matter to Yun Zheng at all?
Mondo suppressed his excitement and whispered, "Father, from what the prince said, he seems to want to support us..."
"Don't think too much about it!"
Tuohuan interrupted Mondo, "King Jingbei is not a fool. Now that we have just surrendered, we need to work hard to gain his trust! Otherwise, we may not even be able to save our lives, let alone other things..."
