Chapter 769 After receiving Shangguan Yuanrang's praise, Nanye was also very excited and asked, "General Yuanrang, what should we do with these prisoners of the Ning army?"
Shangguan Yuanrang glanced at him and said, "Follow the old rules." ” "Old rules" Nanye didn't know what the old rules were, and looked at him puzzled.
"Our army does not have the extra strength and energy to take care of so many prisoners, and all of them will be executed," Shangguan Yuanrang replied simply.
Nanye was secretly stunned, and his brows furrowed.
In his opinion, the enemy is no longer an enemy as long as he lays down his arms, and a captive who has lost the ability and will to resist is too cruel.
He pondered for a moment, and said in embarrassment: "Is it better to report to the king first, and let the king decide?"
"No, I don't."
Shangguan Yuanrang said coldly: "Even if it is to report to the king, the king's decision will not be any different. ” "But" "Where did you come from those nonsense to listen to my orders, and execute all the Ning troops who surrendered" Shangguan Yuan let the words not fall, and a person rushed to the rear, Lotte.
Lotte quickly whipped up, the soldiers of the wind army retreated one after another, out of the way, he rushed directly to Shangguan Yuanrang and Nanye's side, and then hurriedly reined in the war horse, and the horse turned around in place before stopping.
Shangguan Yuan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Lotte, why are you here?"
"General Yuanrang" Lotte arched his hand on the horse, and Zhengse said: "The king has an order to escort all the captured Ning troops to the front of the new army and make meat shields" Shangguan Yuanrang was stunned, then laughed on his back, patted his head, and praised: "It's still the king's thoughtfulness."
"Instead of killing all the prisoners, it's better to push them to the front of the formation, the Ning army's arrow array is powerful, so let them shoot their own people first.
He turned to Nanye and said, "Nanye, hear clearly, act according to the king's orders."
"Yes" After Lotte finished speaking, he arched his hand at Shangguan Yuanrang, turned the horse's head, and retreated to the Chinese army behind.
The 5,000 Ning army was captured and divided into two parts by Nanye, one part was placed in front of the formation on his side, and the other part was taken to the front of the formation on Li Sheng's side.
Five thousand people have become hostages of the Wind Army, and they have also become the shields of the Wind Army, as long as the arrow array is released on the city, then the first person to shoot is the Ning Army's own people.
Tang Yin's methods can be called despicable and indecent, but in his concept, as long as he goes to the battlefield, there is no noble existence, and the purpose of the battle is only one, to exchange the minimum price for the maximum victory.
The battlefield is a hell of life and death.
Seeing that the Feng army pushed all their surrendered soldiers to the front of the battle to make meat shields, the bows and arrows raised by the Ning army were put down one after another, and the bowstrings that were pulled apart were slowly loosened, and for a while, people didn't know whether to continue to shoot the arrows in their hands.
When his own arrows stopped, Lin Han was furious, and yelled left and right: "Why don't you release the arrows, why don't you continue to release the arrows?"
"My lord," a Ning general said in a trembling voice: "The wind army and the wind army will push all the brothers of our army to the front of the formation as a shield."
Lin Han is not blind, and he can see the actions of the Feng Army clearly, but at this critical moment, if he appeases the surnames of his surrendered soldiers, the battle will not be fought.
He shouted angrily: "Those who are afraid of the enemy and surrender should be killed according to military law, how can we mess up our tactics because of these damned surrender troops, release arrows to me, and continue to release arrows, if there are any mercy from his subordinates, they will be punished by the military."
He gave the order to die, and the soldiers below did not dare to slack off any longer, raised their arrows again, drew their bows, and shot arrows at the Feng army camps on the left and right.
The Ning army kept shooting arrows, but it was bitter that the 5,000 Ning soldiers who surrendered, they had no shields, no weapons, they were tied together by the wind army in strings, and they couldn't escape if they wanted to, and they watched their own arrow rain falling from the sky, unstoppable, unavoidable, they could only grit their teeth and hold on.
Although the steel armor on Ning Bing's body was strong, it couldn't prevent the arrows from firing, only to hear the sound of arrows breaking through the armor in the crowd, and then, there was a wail, because Ning Jun was tied together, some people had been shot into hedgehogs, but the people on both sides did not fall, and the corpses were still standing, bearing more arrows.
The tragic scene in front stimulated the nerves of every new sergeant behind them, and also made them deeply realize that once they chose to surrender on the battlefield, no one would treat themselves as human beings anymore, not even pigs and dogs, whether it was the enemy or their comrades.
There was a meat shield in front to block the arrow array, which indeed greatly reduced the casualties of the new army, and also made the stone throwing machine and the city-breaking crossbow in the back more smooth.
The battle is still going on, and it has been going on for more than two hours until now, and the stone-throwing machines and city-breaking crossbows in the new army have lost more than 10 units because of the continuous operation, and the stones and crossbow arrows prepared in advance are getting fewer and fewer, and there is a tendency to be insufficient.
Correspondingly, the gaps in the cliffs on both sides of Crouching Tiger Pass are also getting bigger and bigger, and a big pit has been smashed out by the wind army, and the mountains and rocks on it are crumbling and overwhelmed.
Just when Nanye was about to send someone back to the Chinese army to ask if there were any stones and crossbow arrows, suddenly, the cliff in front of him made a loud cracking sound that pierced the eardrums, and the crisp sound was so loud that it was like an invisible knife, piercing into the brain along the ear hole, making people's brains hurt.
At the same time, countless pieces of gravel fell from the mountain, and immediately after, I saw the incomparably huge rock above the cliff depression break off, slope down heavily, and then tumble down the cliff face rapidly.
There is no need to land, when it rolls down tightly, there is a feeling that the ground is shaking, and it seems that the entire Crouching Tiger Pass is trembling.
Such a spectacular scene, whether it is for the Ning people or the wind people, whether it is for the soldiers or the generals, the commanders, are the first time in their lives, the soldiers of the new army have opened their mouths wide, slowly put down the shields in their hands, and even the soldiers who are stone throwers and city-breaking crossbows have invariably stopped the movements in their hands and looked at the front blankly.
The new army that took the lead was like this, and the same was true of the Chinese army behind, Tang Yin, who was so calm-willed, sat on the horse and unconsciously straightened up, almost stepping on the stirrups to stand up.
To the Wind Army in the distance, this scene is spectacular and rare to see, but for the Ning Army in Crouching Tiger Pass, especially the defenders located below the falling rocks, it is definitely a nightmare like being in purgatory.
The rumbling boulder finally hit the ground, and the violent impact that followed caused a strong earthquake that knocked down a large part of the new army outside the city.
The war horse was frightened, sparsely screamed, the front hooves off the ground, almost upright, and threw the soldiers of the wind army sitting on it under the horses one after another, Nanye was not spared, and the sturdy stone throwers that had been fixed were dumped one after another, and the surrounding new soldiers and soldiers were scared and screamed, and they ran out with rolling and crawling, and in an instant, people had the feeling that the sky was falling apart, and the people in the new army camp shouted and neighed, and it was a mess.
The new army is still a mile away from Crouching Tiger Pass, and the scene in Crouching Tiger Pass can be imagined.
The center of the mountain stone did not hit the city wall of Wohu Pass, only the edge was scraped, but even so, the city wall of Wohu Pass collapsed more than ten meters long, half because of the smash, half because of the earthquake, the Ning soldiers gathered on it disappeared at once, or were smashed into flesh, or the bones and tendons were broken, and they were drowned in the broken bricks and stones.
The city wall that was not affected by the falling rocks was slightly better, at least it did not collapse, but many Ning soldiers standing in front of the arrow battlements were thrown out of the city wall directly by the violent vibration and fell outside the city, and Lin Han above the gatehouse also almost fell from above, but fortunately, a famous Ning general hugged his legs tightly when he fell to the ground, so that he was spared.
The Wind Army is in the army.
"Haha" Tang Yin was the first person to recover from the shock, and when he saw that the city wall of Crouching Tiger Pass was smashed open a large gap more than ten meters wide, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, and asked Qiu Zhen beside him: "Qiu Zhen, have there been three hours since the start of the war?"
"Ahhhh Tang Yin asked again: "I said that there have been three hours since the start of the war?"
Qiu Zhen heard it clearly now, calculated slightly, and replied: "Back to the king, two and a half hours at most" "Okay" Tang Yin stretched out three fingers and smiled at the generals around him: "I said that within three hours, break through the Crouching Tiger Pass, and now it's time to fulfill the promise."

As he spoke, he drew out his sword, swung it forward, and shouted: "The officers and men of our army obey the order, the whole army will attack, capture the Crouching Tiger Pass, and annihilate all the thieves, regardless of life or death."
"Kill" Tang Yin gave an order, and the whole army moved in unison, shouting to shake the sky, and thousands of troops and horses moved forward at full speed.
At this time, it is no longer to keep the formation of the corps forward, it is good to be able to maintain the formation of the corps, and the wind army of nearly 200,000 is charging like a flood of beasts, and the morale is like a macro, as if it can devour the heavens and the earth, and the state of a tiger and wolf is enough to deter the opponent from being timid without a fight.
If there is a danger to defend, the Ning army still has something to rely on, now that the city wall has collapsed, looking at the wind army that rushed over like a sea of mountains outside the city, the Ning army is all scattered, and the legs and stomachs are tendoned.
On the surface, the falling rocks smashed down the walls of Crouching Tiger Pass, but in fact, it smashed the psychological defense line of the Ning army, causing tens of thousands of defenders to fall into a state of nervous breakdown all at once.
It's a pity that the disaster is not a one-way street, the collapse of the city wall on one side has made the Ning army have a sense of great disaster, but at this time, the cliff on the other side also has a landslide, three huge rocks rolled down one after another, not only the city wall collapsed more than ten meters, even the barracks and military tents in the pass were implicated in a large piece, and many wounded soldiers who stayed in the barracks died in a daze
