A Cai's work: The Emperor's Phoenix: The Godly Doctor and the Abandoned Concubine ... Volume 1 1568 The surrendered soldiers, the life of the bitch is hard
The navy of the four kingdoms and nine cities is not weak, especially the Xiling navy, which was a terrifying force in the sea and could massacre the pirate Lu family, but...
The situation was different now, the whole situation was extremely unfavorable to them. They had been on the island for so long, even if they had not been affected by the poisonous insects, their morale had been greatly reduced due to the successive setbacks.
Faced with powerful pirates who were more familiar with water than them, the Xiling navy had no choice but to surrender.
With the war raging everywhere, the island has never been as lively as it is now. The whole island seems to have come alive.
The shadows of trees on the island swayed, waves rolled, and torches flickered, just like a ghost town. All the puddles on the island were stained red with blood, and corpses were piled up on top of each other...
There were no gunshots or cannon fire. This was the most primitive and brutal era of cold weapons. Only white knives went in and red knives came out.
Soldiers in battle dared not be distracted, for fear of being pierced by the cold sword if they lost focus. They put all their energy into the battle. Their bodies were tense, like a bow, ready to tear the enemy in front of them into pieces at any time.
Compared with the navy of the four kingdoms and nine cities, the private army of the Ninth Prince was fortunate. Even though they were not numerous, the Ninth Prince still selected a thousand men to carry the wounded soldiers out of the battlefield.
When the soldiers of the four kingdoms and nine cities were injured on the battlefield and fell to the ground unable to fight, they would be trampled to death, but the navy of the Ninth Prince would not do that.
If they are injured, they will be dragged to the side by the sharp-eyed search and rescue team, and soldiers will bandage their wounds.
Many people bandaged their wounds and continued to fight on the battlefield...
The number of people in the four countries and nine cities was decreasing, but the Ninth Prince's navy did not decrease, or it decreased very slowly.
At this point in the battle, there is no need to say more, it is clear who will win and who will lose.
"I knew it would be like this." Nanling Jinfan shook his head, completely disappointed with the Four Kingdoms and Nine Cities.
He was simply a piece of useless mud. Fortunately, he had been prepared and left a few people from Night City in the dark, otherwise he would have been dead this time.
Nanling Jinfan asked the people of Yecheng to take him to the back of the island. He was also a cautious person, and before he got to the island, he had someone hide a small boat, clean water, and food in a reef cave.
With those things, at least five of them could return to land alive.
A cunning rabbit has three burrows, so he had to be extremely careful with a body like his. At this moment, Nanling Jinfan was glad that he had made preparations early.
The Ninth Prince did not really want everyone on the island to die. He just wanted to shut these people up and prevent people from the four countries and nine cities from knowing that it was him and Feng Qingchen who robbed the Lu family's wealth.
When the "pirates" were killing people everywhere, a general came out and shouted: "Those who surrender will not be killed. Put down your swords and stand to the right."
Some are tough, while others cherish their lives. After hearing this, the soldiers from the four countries and nine cities were still a little hesitant, but when they saw the first person drop his knife and stand to the right, more and more people followed suit...
If the Ninth Prince were here, he would have discovered that the first people to stand up and surrender were the people of Taicheng.
Clang clang clang... weapons fell to the ground, and more and more people stood on the right. Those who refused to surrender. Those who thought they were extraordinary and proud, saw their companions act like this, and their faces turned pale, but they shouted loudly: "I would rather die in battle than surrender like pirates."
Unfortunately, the "pirate" would not be moved by his righteousness. The "pirate" would only sneer and stab the sharp knife into his body: "Then you go to hell."
Pride is good, but the enemy's pride is of no use to them. They don't need proud soldiers, they just need obedient soldiers. There is nothing wrong with being afraid of death.
…
The Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen stood on the boat for as long as the battle lasted. They were very satisfied with the news sent back from the front. The only drawback was that they still hadn't found the whereabouts of Nanling Jinfan.
Nanling Jinfan seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. The "pirates" searched for a long time but could not find Nanling Jinfan or his body. Several Night City masters also disappeared with Nanling Jinfan.
"Search." The Ninth Prince gave the order and asked the eighteen riders to pay attention to the sea and not let Nanling Jinfan escape.
The Ninth Prince believed that no one on the island could leave, but Nanling Jinfan could definitely escape, because that man always liked to leave a way out for himself.
It must be said that the Ninth Prince knew Nanling Jinfan, but he had too many things to do and could not keep an eye on Nanling Jinfan. Nanling Jinfan was also a very good at hiding. You know, he hid in the underground palace of Dongling for many times and was not discovered.
Nanling Jinfan was still on the island at this time. He asked someone to push the boat out, but he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he was waiting. He would not dare to leave until the Ninth Prince officially landed on the island to take the Lu family's wealth.
He was really afraid of the Ninth Uncle. If he fell into the hands of the Ninth Uncle this time, he would have no choice but to die. And he really didn't want to die...
The battle ended in the early hours of the morning. Those who refused to surrender were all killed, while those who surrendered were put on the boat and provided with clean water, food, and a set of clean clothes.
Those who surrendered thought they had seen it wrong at first: the pirates were so humane that they actually prepared food and clothes for them?
They didn't believe it was real until they drank food and clean water, washed off the dirt on their bodies and changed into clean clothes.
At this moment, they were not so opposed to becoming surrendered soldiers. It seemed that they would definitely survive and live well.
After pacifying the surrendered soldiers, the "pirates" quickly cleaned up the battlefield, carried out the wounded, and dug pits to bury the dead.
From beginning to end, the Ninth Prince did not meet the people from the Four Kingdoms and Nine Cities. Only after the battlefield was cleared and the surrendered soldiers were locked in the cabin did the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen show up.
"Why do we feel like thieves?" Feng Qingchen looked at the empty island with infinite emotion.
I have been hiding from everyone until this moment. This sneaky feeling is really bad.
"A thief is a thief. Winning is good." The Ninth Prince has always believed that the winner is the king. No matter how tragic and bloody the process is, as long as you win, history will be rewritten by you.
As for whether others know you won, is that important? As long as they get the benefits, it's fine. False reputation can sometimes be a burden.
Feng Qingchen nodded seriously: "You are right, as long as we win."
Why bother so much? So many people sacrificed their lives in the four countries and nine cities, but the Lu family's wealth still fell into her hands.
No matter what, she is the final winner.
The Ninth Prince habitually reached out his hand to rub Feng Qingchen's head. When his hand was placed on Feng Qingchen's head, the Ninth Prince realized that there were many "outsiders" here.
"Ahem..." The Ninth Prince calmly withdrew his hand, glanced at the Eighteen Riders who were trying hard to hold back their laughter, and said seriously: "Why are you standing here instead of going to look for Nanling Jinfan's whereabouts?"
"Uh..." The smiles on the faces of the eighteen riders froze immediately, and they all looked up at the Ninth Prince: You have to be so cruel. The Ninth Prince had so many people but couldn't find him, so how could the eighteen of them find him?
"Hurry up and go." The Ninth Prince added in a deep voice. When the eighteen riders saw that Feng Qingchen did not support them, they knew that the situation was hopeless and had to act obediently.
As expected, the master’s excitement is not worth watching.
