"General Qin, no, let's withdraw!"

Pan Feng, who was sharp-eyed and had already reached the end of the situation, rushed to Qin Ming and said anxiously, "If we continue to fight, our foundation will be destroyed in Lingcheng."

"Yang Yanzhao betrayed his faith and instigated his subordinates, and openly violated the principle of knights. Commander Pang Da died tragically. If this revenge is not avenged, how can I be worthy of Commander Pang Da's spirit in heaven?"

Qin Ming yelled.

"General Qin, we are always here, so we will keep the green mountains and there will be no need to worry about burning firewood! If our foundation is completely broken, even if the Great Zhou takes Changping, what can we use to firmly hold the position of General Secretary?"

Chen Chengguang also rushed to Qin Ming and said loudly: "Let's give up the Lingcheng."

"impossible!"

Qin Ming roared angrily.

"General Qin, offended me!"

Seeing that the truth was said, Qin Ming still couldn't listen, so he could only help Qin Ming to retreat, "Retreat, retreat!"

"No retreat is allowed!"

Qin Ming tried to resist, but Pan Feng and Chen Chengguang fought tightly. As for the soldiers, although they were furious, their actions were still not allowed to continue the attack and could only retreat in a mess.

"Okay!"

When Yang Yanzhao saw that Qin Ming finally led his troops to retreat, he raised his hand and signaled the archers to stop shooting.

"Why stop!"

As soon as he arrived and was still a little confused, Liu Qing couldn't help but say, "Now Qin Ming is still a defeated general. In my opinion, it's better to take advantage of the victory and kill Qin Ming's 200,000 troops in one breath."

“Is it useful?”

Yang Yanzhao turned his head and asked, "For our Qin State, the biggest threat is not Qin Ming, but the army of the Great Zhou. If Qin Ming really dies here, the army of the Great Zhou will not retreat because of his death. At that time, if Qin State is defeated, wouldn't the entire Qin State be reduced to the territory of the Great Zhou?

Keep Qin Ming there, at least Qin is still called Qin. At least if the Great Zhou wants to get Qin, he has to find a way to deal with Qin Ming first, let alone..." He was embarrassed to continue talking, so he had to give up, "Stop shooting, and be gentle on the battle."

This battle came and went quickly. The entire battle process was less than half a day, but the number of deaths on both sides was large. More than 80,000 people were killed or injured in Lingcheng. As for Qin Ming's troops, it was reduced from more than 200,000 to more than 100,000.

These tens of thousands obviously cannot support Qin Ming to continue to surround Lingcheng. He led his troops back to the military camp and found that Zhou Ziqi had rolled up the bedding and left, he looked at Lingcheng fiercely, "Yang Yanzhao, I, Qin Ming, have recorded this blood debt. In the future, Dingdang will return it as much as possible!"

Although Qin Ming was defeated, he was not ashamed to defeat this battle. On the contrary, the actual practices he used allowed Pan Feng, Chen Chengguang and other soldiers to see Qin Ming's grudges. Perhaps Qin Ming still lacked in commanding troops, but at least Qin Ming would be a good general.

Under the command of Qin Ming, a large number of soldiers began to be forced to withdraw from the Honghe Province in an orderly manner and march towards Longzhong.

Their retreat also brought an end to the battle of Lingcheng. Everyone thought that the battle would last for a long time, including Yang Yanzhao, would last for at least two months or even longer, but in fact, the siege lasted only less than ten days.

"General Pang is a good general, at least before he died, he never forgot that he was a general of Qin."

When Qin Ming retreated in an orderly manner, Yang Yanzhao did not send anyone to stop him, but instead anxious about all the Red River generals. He said solemnly for a year: "Send the order and the three armies will be silent for Commander Pang for a long time."

"yes!"

One by one, the generals hurriedly took the order.

"As for the sinners in this battle, Dongxue!"

Yang Yanzhao looked at Dongxue, who was covered in scars and kneeling on her knees, and said coldly: "Do you know what's wrong?"

Dongxue gritted her teeth, tried hard to endure the pain all over her body, and nodded heavily.

"You are the one I brought. If you make a mistake, it means I make a mistake!"

Yang Yanzhao continued: "I kindly saved your life, but you committed a taboo in duel, which aroused public anger. Logically speaking, I shouldn't have saved you back with someone like you, but I think that you are guilty of killing four enemy generals and killing Pang Long, but it also won Qin Ming's army to attack the city. We can take the opportunity to repel Qin Ming's troops and restore the freedom of Lingcheng. The crime of death can be avoided, and the crime of living cannot be escaped."

"Drag out and fight fifty!"

With a command, Dong Xue was willingly dragged out by two soldiers. A dull sound of attacks came from outside the study, but there was no Dong Xue's scream.

Dongxue bit her lip tightly. She was already full of casualties, and she kept silent until she was knocked unconscious. Every battle continued, except for the splashed blood, and there was no movement.

"In addition, as her top boss, I made a mistake, I have to deal with it twice as much as possible, someone else!"

Yang Yanzhao called two more, "I will punish myself for five hundred battles, and I will execute it immediately, and there must be no mistakes!"

"Second Young Master, no!" Dongxue was beaten, and the generals had nothing to say, but Yang Yanzhao wanted to punish himself, so the generals refused to obey.

"Second Young Master, as the acting president of Lingcheng, Lingcheng still expects you to come and protect him."

"Yes! Second Young Master, you are already injured. If these five hundred battles continue, let alone you now, even if you are a person who is intact, you will have to die!"

"Second Young Master, please respect yourself! Honghe needs you, and Lingcheng needs you too. Don't be too impressed!"

...The generals knelt on their feet and pleaded with each other.

Yang Yanzhao said with a sad and angry look on his face: "What are you doing?

If the Heavenly Breaks the Law and the Common People, do what you should do!”

"Then let's fight! Let's kill you!"

Liu Jiaxin couldn't stand Yang Yanzhao's righteousness, "Anyway, your brother died in Lingcheng, and you died here, so you can be buried with your brother. Our Honghe Province is not afraid of anything. Isn't it just to bear the burden of revenge on the revenge? Yang Yanwei and Yang Yanzhao came to rescue Honghe Province and the crisis, but we killed you both?

We can bear the small charges in Honghe Province.”

"I can't bear it!"

Liu Qing hurriedly said, "Sister, what are you talking nonsense! Second Young Master, don't be impulsive!"

"Yes, the second young master, even if you don't think about it for us, you should think about it for the Honghe Province, the Yang family, and the Grand Commander Yang Chenglin, right?"

"The second young master, if you are unfilial, you will have three kinds of queens. The Yang family cannot defeat the queens!"

"The last one is willing to accept punishment for the second young master!"

...A group of generals pleaded with mercy, and Yang Yanzhao was filled with joy. He deliberately pointed out the key points of the punishment, five hundred military battles! That was tantamount to the death penalty. No one could withstand the five hundred military battles, and he was no exception. The reason why he said so was that he did not want his reputation to be ruined by Dongxue.

What subordinates commit crimes and are jointly and severally responsible for themselves?

It's all nonsense! Yang Yanzhao doesn't want to be beaten by himself. Dongxue makes a mistake, so he lets Dongxue get beaten. In short, he wants reputation, and he needs to keep people, and be beaten by himself?

Impossible! Although I was happy, Yang Yanzhao looked embarrassed, "Okay! In view of the fact that the overall situation is not stable, it is quite useful to keep my life in Yang Yanzhao. Just forget about the punishment, but... Dongxue made a mistake, I cannot help but punish me, and I ask to resign."
