Chapter 430: 100,000 troops killed
"I am General Ye's bodyguard, and I have a token to prove it. General Ye has an order to close the city gate as soon as the enemy enters the city." The man took out the token from his waist. Guard's badge. Each of Ye Shengtian's guards will be equipped with a waist card, and the owner's name will be engraved on the waist card, which is nothing more than convenient transportation.
"I'll obey." The token is real, and they naturally obey. Besides, the guard is dead, and they have no choice.
The 10w army of the Yanri Empire marched into Yancheng in a mighty manner. The beast that the general was riding was flying tiger in the daytime, majestic and majestic, laughed a few times in a row, and said loudly: "Brothers, rush in, kill Ye Shengtian, and make me strong in the sun."
A tiger took the lead, and the deputy general rushed in first. When the 10w army was almost the same, the city gate was suddenly closed. The sudden closure of the city gate left many soldiers stunned and at a loss. The city gate that was open just now, why is it suddenly closed now?
"It's not good, it's a trick, get out." By the time the lieutenant found out, it was already too late. At this time, countless archers appeared on the city wall, and the arrows were all wound, and countless lives would be taken away with just one order.
As for when these soldiers got on the city wall, I am afraid that the guard who died just now will not know. Yu Jian thought that what he did was unknowingly, but what he didn't know was that everything he did was under the eyes of Ye Shengtian. The city owner, Lord Zheng, City Lord Zheng didn't know that Ye Shengtian sent someone into his mansion as soon as he arrived in Yancheng, and tempted to buy off many of his servants.
His relationship with Yu Jian is actually not for Ye Shengtian at all. Ye Shengtian deliberately let them get in touch a few more times just for today's show. It seems to be very successful now. After a short period of confusion, the soldiers outside the city slammed into the city gate frantically, while the soldiers on the city gate kept greeting them with bows and arrows.
They are close again, and the bottom is very dense, and a few rounds of arrows have caused a lot of casualties. Looking at the soldiers in the city, it was even more unbearable. Ye Shengtian fired a rocket and shot and burned a large area. The shield is molten iron poured on the surface of the wooden board. The actual weight is not too heavy, but the shield's resistance is limited, and many people are killed and injured.
The Yanri army that entered the city was already in chaos, and many people trampled on each other and died, because many people came on horseback. Who is the most powerful cavalry of the Yanri Empire? Now that the horses are frightened, of course they will step on them Injured some people. The lieutenant commanded the soldiers to defend while resisting the arrows.
More than a dozen rounds of arrows were fired in a row, and then the soldiers rushed out to fight hand-to-hand. A vigorous war started like this. The outcome of hand-to-hand combat is nothing more than two kinds. Ye Shengtian's soldiers and horses are waiting for work, and there are many masters mixed in, the lethality is huge, and a sword is a large area.
Ye Shengtian was standing on the city gate at this time, watching the fighting below, he couldn't help sighing that human life was worthless, but there was no way out. Since there is, society will develop and progress; since there will be war. Ye Shengtian is not a great sage, so naturally he will not do those useless efforts.
Harrow and Luo Ding took the remaining army of more than 100,000 people and followed the 10w army in front. When they learned of the army in front, they rushed over quickly, but they were ambushed by the Zilong Empire halfway, and there were no casualties. Little, when we arrived outside the city gate, there was no movement inside, and there were many dead soldiers lying under the city gate, and the remaining soldiers did not dare to rush.
"Ye Shengtian, I really underestimated you." Haro shouted to Ye Shengtian at the city gate.
Ye Shengtian, dressed in white, was standing at the gate of the city, his hair on his temples blown by his majesty, which made people sigh in their hearts: "What a handsome young man."
Harrow's heart has calmed down now. He is no longer sad. He knows that no matter how sad he is, it is useless. Now he just wants to see what this descendant of the Ye family looks like.
When Ye Shengtian showed his face, even Hada had to sigh that Ye Jiasheng was all handsome.
"You must be the old general Harrow." Ye Shengtian said.
"Yes, I am Harrow." Harrow said.
"Hehe, old general Harrow, you are already old, why do you still have to run to the front line when you have nothing to do. If I were you, I might as well play with my grandson at home." Ye Shengtian looked at Harrow and said.
"Hmph, how could I, Harrow, disobey your Majesty's orders. Although I fell in with your poison today, I will destroy your Yancheng in the future." Harrow said.
The main reason for Harrow's failure this time was that he listened to the news of the second prince too much. If it wasn't for this, he would not have brought troops to attack Yancheng so quickly. I didn't expect that the attack would fail, but instead more than 100,000 soldiers were lost. I don't know who should shoulder this responsibility.
"Yancheng has me, Ye Shengtian, and you can never break it." Ye Shengtian said confidently.
Although Ye Shengtian didn't want to attack Harrow, he felt that it was not worth his life for the emperor. Besides, if you only allocate tens of millions to yourself, the military expenses are still about the same, so you don't know how to give yourself some benefits. Anyway, we received the imperial decree, and people came here, but the enemy didn't move, so he couldn't do anything, and the enemy had more troops than himself, and my brother wasn't the one who died.
If Longren knew about Ye Shengtian, he wouldn't know if he would be **** off. A soldier is supposed to kill the enemy for the country, but he is seeking welfare for himself.
"Ye Shengtian, I admit that you did inherit the legacy of your Ye family, but you are still young after all, so it's hard to say who will win next time." Haruo said.
"Alright then, I'll wait for you." Ye Shengtian said.
"Hmph, let's go." Harora returned to her mount and turned around and was about to leave.
"Hey, wait." Ye Shengtian stopped Hello.
"What? You still want to keep me?" Haro said very displeased.
"Hehe, I don't have such a big appetite, I just want to tell you, remember to send someone to collect the corpse, I don't have the manpower and material resources to deal with it." Ye Shengtian said helplessly.
"Hmph, Ye Shengtian, don't deceive people too much. Let's go." Haro left with a sentence.
The corpses of a hundred thousand troops are not a small number, and it is not a simple matter to deal with. Usually, they are generally cremated and then buried, so that diseases will not arise. Generally speaking, after a battle, the armies of both sides jointly choose a time to collect the corpses. This time is a safe time, such as a sneak attack.
God, Harrow really sent someone to collect the corpse. Stacks of corpses were loaded onto the carriage and pulled back. The pitiful thing is that those dead corpses have been stripped of their armor, and they are only covered with body, which is really desolate. In this scene of the soldiers of the Yan Sun Empire who came to collect the corpses, they scolded the Zilong Empire for being inhumane, and they didn't even let the dead people's money go.
Harrow's handsome account.
Harrow sat in the first seat, the other lieutenants sat on the west side, and Luo Ding sat on the east side. Luo Ding was dispatched with the army yesterday. Of course, he knew that the army had lost 100,000. In the end, this responsibility was his own, so he was still a little uneasy now.
"Yesterday's loss of 100,000 troops, is this the responsibility?" Harrow's sharp eyes swept over everyone, and those who were swept away did not dare to raise their heads.
The death of a hundred thousand troops is not a big loss. If the emperor is held accountable, he will definitely quarrel and exterminate the family. Anyway, a sentence is a death sentence. The emperor doesn't know the current situation here, so it depends on how he should report it, so of course Harrow has to find someone to take the responsibility, otherwise he will not be able to take it on himself.
"What's the matter? Are you dumb? The 100,000 army is gone like this. General Ben is heartbroken. If it wasn't for the responsibility, General Ben would have followed them long ago." Feeling overwhelmed, I shed a lot of old tears.
"General, it's not your fault. Admiral believes that the fault this time is inaccurate intelligence."
"Yeah, General. Didn't you mean to open the city gate to welcome us in? How could you be ambushed by the enemy? A certain general thought there were traitors among us, and this made the enemy know our actions well."
"That's right, it was supposed to welcome us into the city but now people are caught in the urn. This must be a trap set by the enemy."
"Oh, I understand what you mean. You are trying to say that there is a traitor, and it is the traitor who passed this information to us. It is because of this that we lost 100,000 troops, right?" Haro understood. The meaning of several lieutenants, he also suspected that there was a traitor, otherwise how could the 100,000 army be lost so quickly.
"Yes, General."
. . . . . .
Several lieutenants responded.
"Your Highness, you gave me the news. I don't know who Your Highness sent to bribe the Yancheng defender?" Harrow turned his head and asked Luo Ding. Of course, Harrow did not have any doubts about Luo Ding. The prince would never do such detrimental things.
"I sent Yu Jian over." Luo Ding replied.
"What about the others?" Harrow demanded.
"Yeah, someone else? I didn't see him this morning." Luo Ding looked around, but he didn't see Yu Jian.
