Wanyan Chizha, Yunchong and other generals of the right army heard the scout's report and immediately stood up.
Yun Chong glanced at the several Tianzhu generals in front of him and waved his hands to the soldiers beside him.
"First take them to wait elsewhere. Soldiers, we will go to meet the commander-in-chief."
"We have the order!"
However, when the soldiers came forward, the veiled Tianzhu general in the middle struggled violently. It was none other than Tianzhu Army Marshal Viyas Hadi.
"Despicable dragon people, cowards who dare not face a fair confrontation.
What are you going to do? We are nobles awarded by the king. You cannot kill us.
To publicly execute nobles is against the conventions between countries."
Yun Chong and others who were about to leave looked stunned and looked at Zamuna with blank eyes: "What did he say?"
"Generals, this man thought that we were going to take him away and execute him. He made a slightly disrespectful remark. He said that he was a nobleman awarded by the king of Tianzhu, which is similar to our title of Dalong.
Said we couldn't kill them.
I thought that it might be some kind of unwritten agreement between the kings of the Dashi Kingdom, Tianzhu, and some countries further to the west, such as a gentleman's agreement.
You cannot kill the nobles of each other's countries at will."
After listening to Zamuna's translation, everyone nodded in understanding.
"Who said you want to kill him? Tell him that we are going to greet our own general and interrogate them for the time being."
"Wait! Zamuna, you just said that he just said something slightly disrespectful? What did he say?"
Zamuna looked at Cheng Kai who was rubbing his nose, hesitated and translated in a low voice: "Despicable dragon people, cowards who dare not confront each other head-on."
Cheng Kai stared at Wyas Hardy for a while, then turned to look at Yun Chong and the others with a sneer.
"Deputy Commander, Governor, it seems that this guy is not convinced either verbally or heartily after being defeated."
"Okay, he's just a defeated general. Why bother with him so much? Go greet the commander first and interrogate them later in the evening."
"yes!"
"Zamuna, after we leave, you tell him that Dalong's heavenly army will not casually kill an unarmed defeated general and then take him under strict guard!"
"Yes, I understand, little one."
Wanyan Chizha and his party left the tent one after another to welcome Nangong Ye's arrival. Only then did Zamuna translate Yunchong's words with the captured Weashadi and other Tianzhu generals.
As night falls, the night skies in Tianzhu and Dashi are particularly brilliant.
The stars dotted in the night sky, combined with the bright moon, can easily arouse homesickness in those who have traveled far away.
In the Chinese army's tent, after Nangong Ye listened to Yunchong and others' careful report on the encounter, he nodded understandingly, got up and walked towards the map.
"According to the letter sent by the scout brother, plus the appearance of this Tianzhu army, it means that our right-hand army will take about ten days to rush to Zala City in Tianzhu, and it will only take about five or six days at the fastest."
"That's probably true. After all, this Tianzhu army has mostly infantry and is advancing slowly, while 80% of our troops are cavalry, so our speed is much faster than them.
The general estimates that if the vanguard soldiers and horses do not consider the issue of food and fodder, and continue to advance at full speed, they can rush to the outside of Zala City and lie dormant in four days, and then attack the city after resting."
Nangong Ye slid his finger on the map for a moment: "Brother Yun, Cheng Kai, you just said that when we first encountered each other, you speculated that these Tianzhu troops might be the enemy's vanguard troops. After capturing the prisoners, the scouts continued
Have you moved forward to investigate?
Is there any information coming in now? Have you found anything wrong?"
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, three thousand scouts continued their in-depth investigation as soon as the battle ended.
However, the commander-in-chief said just now that the scout brothers disguised as caravans had received information that the total number of troops leaving Zala City this time was only about 50,000.
Perhaps the final general and General Cheng were too suspicious and were scaring themselves.
Maybe these 50,000 troops are Tianzhu’s main troops.”
"Commander, the general and the governor are on the safe side. After all, the main force of 50,000 troops is really high. It seems that we were smart but were mistaken."
"Hey! You can't say that. You have considered it very comprehensively and done it correctly.
Not to mention you, even if I accidentally encounter this army, I will inevitably become suspicious.
"Arrogant soldiers will be defeated" is not just a simple word, but a lesson learned by many predecessors.
Not only me, but all of us must remember that no matter how many soldiers and horses we encounter, we must never underestimate the enemy.
You have set a correct example for all the soldiers."
After Nangong Ye finished speaking, he turned around and looked at a group of generals with serious expressions: "Judging from the words translated by little brother Zamuna, this Bahori King of Tianzhu massacred the people in our caravan and looted the goods in their hands.
, have already tasted the sweetness from it.
Judging from the words you negotiated before the war started, as soon as the people of Tianzhu understood that we were Dalong's soldiers, they asked us to offer silk and porcelain, our Dalong's specialties.
Judging from these words, it is not difficult to see that the purpose of these 50,000 troops this time is to go to our dragon.
What the purpose is is self-evident.
Such ambitious people who are unrepentant will only understand what a stupid mistake they have made when our great dragon heavenly army comes to the city.
The prisoners captured in this battle are just honest. If there is any evil behavior, there is no need to hold back.
One by one, kill them all on the spot without mercy.
I will never gamble with the lives of every soldier on the hearts of these barbarian captives."
"We understand."
"Brother Wanyan!"
"The end is here!"
"The idea you just mentioned about using barbarians to control barbarians and barbarians to attack barbarians, I have drawn up a charter in my spare time. After I have read it, I will send a letter to Commander Zhang. Let's discuss this issue with the troops on the left and right.
Once you are sure it is feasible, act on it immediately.”
Wanyan Chizha nodded excitedly: "General, I will understand. I will draw up a detailed charter as soon as possible."
"Okay, don't worry, you are good at what you do.
Now that we have said all that needs to be said about official matters, it is now time to interrogate these Tianzhu generals.
Let the soldiers escort them over."
"Okay! Someone, come and escort the generals of Tianzhu's troops over here."
"Got the order!"
Around the time of tea, all the Tianzhu generals were escorted to the big tent by their own soldiers again.
Nangong Ye looked at these Tianzhu generals who were all covered with veils in surprise, then turned to look at Yun Chong and them: "How come they are all covered in black cloth like the people in the Tianzhu caravan?
Won’t this delay the observation of the battle situation on the battlefield?”
Cheng Kai and others shrugged with a wry smile: "I don't know, but I'm afraid of getting tanned."
Cheng Kai's words made the generals burst into laughter. They looked at each other's dark faces and wondered whether they should follow the example of these Tianzhu people and cover their cheeks with a piece of black cloth to prevent them from being exposed to the scorching sun.
"Take off their veils."
"Got the order!"
The actions of the soldiers made these Tianzhu generals struggle, but in the end they could no longer resist. The black cloths on their faces were all taken off, revealing each other's faces.
Nangong Ye and the others stared blankly at the faces of Weas, Hardy, Coors and the others, with a hint of confusion in their eyes.
"Why do you feel that they look the same? Who is this?"
"Huh? Do you think so too? They can't be brothers, right?"
"No matter how you look at it, they all look the same! If it weren't for the different beards, they would be no different from the same person!"
A group of dragon generals looked at each other with strange curiosity in their eyes.
However, the ten people they said looked exactly the same actually had no similarities at all. It was just that after seeing them at first glance, they couldn't help but suffer from prosopagnosia.
"Despicable dragon people, what are you going to do to us?"
Vyas Hardy's voice made everyone react completely.
"Zamuna."
"Commander, this person asked us what we are going to do with them?"
"Tell him, it's not up to me how to deal with them, but up to their own choice. I can spare their lives, but they have to obey."
"yes!"
After hearing the translated words, Wyashardi looked at Yun Chong and Cheng Kai with gritted teeth: "Despicable, you cowards"
"He said that we were too weak to win and did not dare to confront them face to face and start a confrontation between the two armies. If we did not rely on those terrifying weapons, we would definitely become his defeat."
Nangong Ye, who already knew the specific battle situation, thought about it for a moment and understood what Wias Hadi meant.
He sneered and shook his head: "Childish, you beat me and I beat you, your grandson's grandson won't even have to do it.
You don't even know the tactics of soldiers, but you still dare to lead troops on an expedition?"
Nangong Ye's words made General Dalong in the tent burst into laughter.
Indeed, when the two armies are fighting now, they win by surprise. Who cares how you win? If you win, it is the right thing to do.
This Vias Hardi actually thinks that his own troops are invincible, which is simply ridiculous.
