Chapter 1429: Han Banner World (One Hundred and Nineteen) Curtain Call
At the foot of Shiziling, the Han army has used trenches, walls, and barbed wire to surround the entire mountain. Only a few open passages, even a blind man can see that they are open one after another. Although the two cavalrymen could not see the traps with bloody mouths, as long as someone wanted to protrude from these places, they would be greeted by the cavalry's wild iron hooves and sharp sabers. ≥∈≡.┮.
"What are you still doing here? Attack us, and you'll be done with three strikes, five strikes, five strikes, and two strikes." Agu Huai'en was a little dissatisfied with Guo Laowen's procrastination. After forcing Tan Feng to the Lion Ridge, Guo Laowen had no chance of a hard attack. He worked hard all day long to dig ditches and build walls, all with the intention of trapping his opponent to death, which made Agu Huaien particularly unhappy.
"Hit me!" Guo Laowen said honestly and politely: "Now there are a group of trapped beasts on the mountain. They can't eat or drink. How many days can they survive? Haven't you seen people coming down to surrender every day? Yes? How many people are there? There are about five to six thousand people. Tan Feng fled up the mountain and gathered only 14,500. They were almost halfway down. I estimate that they are almost reaching their limit. Either they capture it or they are defeated. We're exhausted."
"Isn't this wasting time in vain? I guess they should all be starving. It can be said that it is effortless to fight now." Agu Huaien said: "After fighting this battle, we can also immediately join the battle to destroy the enemy." During the Battle of Chu, people were exhausted every day. "
"Wars involve death. Now that we are sure of winning, why let our brothers suffer casualties again? The terrain of Shiziling is so dangerous. If we attack by force, we won't be able to bear it if they roll a few rocks down from above.?≈≧.╊ "It's better to be trapped." Guo Laowen laughed and turned to his lieutenant: "If we add a few more pots at the foot of the mountain to make broth and steam buns, I won't believe that they will become Iron King Kong. Yeah. I'm hungry for them."
Gu Li on the side suppressed a smile and said: "Judging from the soldiers who came down to surrender, the people on the mountain should have no intention of fighting, but we can't tell if we fight up hard. How many fewer people will die will always be Okay." The battle continued. The Hun cavalry division has been reduced a lot. These are the elites of the Huns. Every time one of them dies, Gu Li feels a little distressed. Especially now that the dawn of victory is right in front of us, dying on the eve of victory is not a happy thing.
"Just wait, maybe the enemy on the mountain will surrender in the next moment."
Mountain top. In Tan Feng's tent, after the big case, Tan Feng sat in formal attire. Before the big case, a dozen generals knelt on the ground with sad faces.
"You have been following me for so long, and you have experienced blessings and hardships, but generally speaking, you have endured more hardships." Tan Feng had a smile on his face, but his words were full of sadness: " The general is incompetent. The three armies are exhausted. Now we are on the road to death. There is no room for recovery. You can't live if I live. You can only live if I die. "
"General!" A cry of grief came from below: "We are willing to fight to the death with the general.
"
"It makes no sense anymore." Tan Feng shook his head: "Over the years, I have always been opportunistic. This is the root of my failure. Now I am dead. ⊥≮网≤.╈Why bother to resist any longer? This move, I have never done anything like jumping over a wall in a hurry, it doesn’t help at all. For me, the battle is over, everything is over.”
"The general is here!" A burly general stood up and walked to Tan Feng in a few steps.
Picked up two letters from the table, "There are two letters here, one is for Gao Yuan. The other is for Ning Xin. After you surrender, give these two letters to the Han army and ask them to do it for me." "Transfer." Tan Feng, "Don't worry about your safety. The Han army has never killed prisoners. At most, you will just be ordinary people from now on. But that's fine. You can plant a few acres of land, marry and have children." , and you can live your life peacefully.”
"General!" Wan Ping took the two letters with both hands and knocked his head on the ground, crying loudly.
Tan Feng laughed and stood up, "We are men who are born as heroes and die as heroes. Why should we act like a little girl? I, Tan Feng, have been in the army for half my life, and I didn't expect to die on the couch. What a good man. To be killed by an axe."
With a choking sound, the sword on his waist was unsheathed and placed across his neck, "Brothers, I'm going!"
With a slash of the sword, blood splattered all over the big case, and all the generals in the tent were covered with blood. With a bang, Tan Feng collapsed and fell to the ground on his back, but his big eyes were still staring at the sky. net.╊╬.┮c┯om
"General!" All the generals in the tent rushed forward, caressing the corpse and crying bitterly.
At the foot of the mountain, Agu Yong rushed into Guo Laowen's Chinese army tent. Seeing his excited son, Agu Huai'en was furious: "There are no rules. What kind of place is this, and you broke into it?"
A Guyong's face turned red and he said incoherently: "Surrender, surrender on the mountain. The white flag was raised, their soldiers put down their weapons and were lining up to go down!"
"Surrendered?" All the generals in the tent stood up, "It was faster than I expected." Guo Laowen shrugged, "It seems that Tan Feng himself knew that there was no way out and could only die. ”
"Why does Commander Guo think that Tan Feng must be dead? Maybe he also surrendered?" Agu Huaien asked in confusion.
"The king has said that Tan Feng is a proud man. He can bend the knee to the King of Chu and the King of Qin, but he will never bend the knee to the king. Now facing this situation, besides death, he has another option. "Want to walk?" Guo Laowen asked.
"Whether Tan Feng is still alive or not, we can just go and see it?" Gu Li said with a smile, "Let's go and welcome our victory."
On the rugged mountain road, groups of soldiers walked down with empty hands and despondently. Each of them looked sluggish and hungry for several days. Even though he was a man made of fine steel, he was also weak at this time. At the front of the team, several generals were carrying a stretcher, which was covered tightly with long white cloth strips. The person at the front was none other than Tan Feng's deputy general Wan Ming. ≦.╊.
The Han soldiers kept a vigilant posture and looked at the Qin soldiers. Beside them, large pots were boiling fragrant broth. Next to them, in the bamboo frames, steaming white buns were piled up. Like a hill.
"Two steamed buns and a bowl of soup for each of the brothers coming down the mountain!" A Han army officer waved his arms and shouted loudly.
The soldiers who came down the mountain were carrying soup and steamed buns. Under the guidance of the Han army, they walked into areas that had been planned in advance. There were five hundred people in each area, and they were surrounded by fully armed soldiers.
Wan Ming couldn't help but feel sour in his heart as he looked at the soldiers squatting on the ground, devouring their food. A bowl of broth and two steamed buns completely extinguished the last remaining energy of the former tiger and wolf army.
"Crime General Wan Ming, I have seen all the generals!" Wan Ming looked at the Han generals standing solemnly in front of him, bent down deeply, and held his saber high with both hands.
Guo Laowen took Wan Ming's saber and said with a smile: "It's too late to rein in the situation. General Wan, is that the body of General Tan behind you?"
"Yes, General Tan has left." Wan Ming whispered.
Guo Laowen stepped towards the stretcher holding Tan Feng's body. Several Qin army generals placed the stretcher on the ground. Guo Laowen squatted down, uncovered the white cloth covering it, and looked at Tan Feng's pale face and deep neck. He sighed slightly, shook his head, covered himself with the white cloth again, and stood up.
"The Han army will ensure your personal safety. All soldiers can be dismissed according to their free will. As for the mid-level and senior generals, you will be sent to Jicheng to wait for the next arrangement. General Wan, can you accept it?" Guo Laowen asked.
"Of course I can accept it." Wan Ming nodded. Could it be that he didn't accept it? He took out the two letters ordered by Tan Feng from his arms, "These are the letters that General Tan wrote to the King of Han and the three princesses before he died. I also asked General Guo to deliver them."
Guo Laowen took the letter and carefully put it into his arms, "Don't worry, I will definitely deliver it to the hands of the king and the princess. General Wan, please!"
Wan Ming nodded, walked a few steps, and then turned back, "General Guo, is General Tan's body?"
Guo Laowen nodded knowingly: "Don't worry, we Han people have never had the habit of abusing corpses. General Tan's body will be properly preserved and sent to Jicheng. General Tan is from Jicheng, so he will be sent back to his hometown for burial. I think he is also satisfied.”
"Thank you!" Wan Ming gratefully bowed his hands to Guo Laowen. He was originally worried that the Han people would cut off Tan Feng's head in public in order to demonstrate.
Jicheng has not changed much because of the ongoing Han-Chu War. This country-destroying war seems to be just an ordinary regional dispute for the capital of the most powerful country in the world. People should What do you do? On the streets, people discuss more about business news. Where and who knows something? Is it of value that can be used? Can it be transformed into production in a short time and make money from it? profit. It was only when the latest issue of Dahan Daily went on sale and people read the news in the newspaper that they suddenly realized, oh, we Dahan are still at war!
After entering the new year, Dahan Weekly has finally begun its transformation from a weekly newspaper to a daily newspaper. The great development of printing technology, the large-scale increase in the literate population, and the effectiveness and practicality of the information provided by newspapers have made Dahan Daily suitable for the occasion. And born. In fact, many tabloids have begun to sell them in the streets and alleys. Of course, these tabloids cannot compete with Dahan Daily. Most of the tabloids published in the newspapers are gossip and anecdotes. Even these nutritious things actually have a certain market.
A middle-aged man was sitting in an ordinary small teahouse in Jicheng, drinking tea and reading today's newspaper. The headline on the front page is that the ten most powerful businessmen in Jishi City have jointly established Jishi City Commercial Bank, which competes with the Dahan Central Bank in many businesses. As for the government-run banks that have been strongly challenged by private banks, as the mouthpiece of Dahan Dahan Daily actually sang praises, which made the middle-aged people reading the newspaper feel a little incredible.
But this was not the issue he wanted to care about. When he turned to the second page, he finally saw what he was looking for, the news about the Chu-Han War. But today, he just glanced at the title and his eyes froze.
Tan Feng was defeated and committed suicide at Shiziling, and the rest of his troops surrendered!
(I am the King has begun to wrap up, and one important character after another is about to take his final bow!) (To be continued.)
