Seeing that there were only a few enemy troops left, Wang Ye shouted, "Put down your weapons and surrender, and you won't be killed!"
He also asked the people around him to shout along.
"Put down your weapons, and surrender without killing!"
"Put down your weapons, and surrender without killing!"
Listening to the deafening shouts from all directions, I wonder how many troops are surrounding them.
Finally, someone couldn't stand the pressure anymore, dropped Wu Xi, dismounted and surrendered.
Some people took the lead, and more and more people began to surrender.
Only then did Ye breathe a sigh of relief.
If we continue fighting, we can indeed eliminate all the enemies. It will only cost us some arrows.
Even after it is ejected, it can be reduced and recycled, which means there will be no loss.
But doing so would accidentally injure a large number of war horses.
Every warhorse is extremely precious, and Ye needs a large number of high-quality warhorses to equip his cavalry.
Especially after these battles, we have become more aware of the importance of excellent war horses.
The attack finally stopped after everyone surrendered.
Let them take off their armor and walk out in a line with their hands raised.
They also had to check if anyone was carrying weapons, and if they found anyone, they would kill them immediately.
Zhao Wudi came to Ye and asked quietly, "Your Highness, are you really going to accept these people's surrender?
There are more than 30,000 people in total, and controlling them is not an easy task.
If they find an opportunity to escape back, they may not necessarily join the army."
Ye smiled softly, "Do you think I could let these people go?
Every soldier is stained with the blood of the people of Dayuan.
If we spare these people, how can we be righteous to the people who died?
I asked them to surrender only to protect the war horses.
Once everyone has disarmed and gathered together..."
Ye made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Zhao Wudi immediately understood: "I understand!"
He turned around and went to find his men to prepare.
The labor force in the country is very sufficient, and there is no need for these people to be slaves.
These people are fierce and aggressive, difficult to manage, and they might cause trouble at any time.
Other generals might have saved their lives and exchanged them for prisoners from the enemy.
For either Zhao Wudi or Zhao Ye, there is no need for it.
It would be more cost-effective to kill them all and weaken the enemy's strength.
After taking the captives aside, Zhao Wudi drew his sword and knocked down the nearest person.
He shouted, "Kill them all!"
The captive's face was filled with panic, and then he shouted angrily: "You actually broke your promise!"
The soldiers didn't care what they said and quickly drew their swords and chopped them off.
I have long hated these people, and after giving the order, no one showed mercy.
After the killing was complete, the soldier put away his knife and said excitedly, "This is really satisfying. There is no point in keeping these prisoners. It's infuriating just looking at them."
Zhao Wudi said: "You are right, these people are stained with the blood of our people, how can we let them go!
"We're letting them live a little longer just for the sake of the warhorses, otherwise we would have killed them long ago!"
Everyone suddenly realized what was going on and gave thumbs up to praise Ye for a job well done.
We absolutely don't want to take any prisoners, but these war horses are all good things and we can't let them go.
Kill all the enemies and clean up the battlefield quickly.
Ye ordered Zhao Wudi to continue chasing the enemy without stopping and kill as many as he could.
They stuck to the enemy day and night, strangling them all the way and making the enemy tremble with fear.
Not daring to stop for a moment, he ran away desperately.
As for those who fell behind, they simply ignored them.
They all knew that if they delayed even for a moment, the large cavalry might catch up and kill them.
Only then did they realize that their strength was far inferior to Dayuan's.
In the past, they would either engage in minor fights, rob money, kill people, and then run away. The Dayuan army could not catch up with them and could not do anything to them.
Or just follow the barbarian army and take advantage.
He thought his army was very capable and wanted to take advantage of others in a very arrogant manner.
But their luck was really bad, they met Ye.
It is definitely their nemesis.
In the face of countless crossbows, their cavalry's combat effectiveness could not be fully utilized.
They lost tens of thousands of people in pursuit along the way, and finally fled back to Caocao in a very embarrassed manner.
After confirming that the Dayuan cavalry had retreated from the grassland, they ran more than a hundred meters before daring to stop and rest.
Everyone's face was filled with panic, and even though they knew they were safe, they were still afraid.
The leading general reacted quickly and ordered people to count the losses.
After a long time, the number of people reported was that more than 80,000 people were killed.
The army lost one-third of its personnel.
This is because they obtained a large amount of iron last year, forged many weapons and greatly improved their army.
Unexpectedly, he went back after fighting a battle.
Even a large part of the losses were caused by veterans whose combat effectiveness was much worse than that of the newly recruited soldiers.
General Jian Qi was so upset that he had no tears to cry.
He thought he could gain an advantage by following, but he was ambushed and suffered heavy losses.
"That's not right. The barbarians led a large army to attack Dayuan, so where did all these ambush troops come from?
Is our information wrong? Have we been deceived?"
"Damn it, is this a trap set for us by the barbarians?"
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other and felt that something was wrong.
They were all very aware of how powerful the barbarian army was. After the expansion, the army reached more than 400,000 people.
Such a strong force would have an absolute advantage even when facing an army of millions.
No one can be their opponent in the battle on the grass.
If they invaded Dayuan, the Dayuan court would definitely send all its troops to resist.
How can we have the time to stop them?
Moreover, we didn’t see a single barbarian soldier along the way, which makes people suspicious.
"That's not right. Our people witnessed with their own eyes the barbarians sending an army of nearly 400,000 to invade Dayuan.
Not only did they besiege their city but they also sent people to plunder it.
How come everyone is gone all of a sudden?"
"This matter is suspicious in every way, and we must investigate it quickly.
It is possible that the barbarians want to attack us and deliberately deceive us into sending troops, allowing Dayuan to ambush us. This is so hateful.
We have suffered heavy losses now, and the barbarians may be taking advantage of this opportunity to annex us."
"What should we do? We have to go back quickly, otherwise Khan and the others will be in danger."
Some people were extremely worried after hearing this.
Their Khan is the spiritual pillar of the entire country. If he were to go wrong, the country would fall into chaos and would have no power to resist the barbarians.
The country will be destroyed soon.
Especially those who are loyal cannot wait even for a moment.
"Don't worry, this is just an inference! It may not be as serious as we say.
Perhaps there is another possibility, that is, there is a spy among our people, who has been bribed and deliberately provides us with false information.
In fact, the barbarians did not mobilize any troops at all, so we were deceived.
As for whether it was done by the Barbarians or Dayuan, it’s hard to say.”
"Is it possible that Yunlu Pavilion is deceiving us?" someone suddenly asked.
