Suddenly, the black flying rabbit disappeared, and three days passed in the howling north wind. During the three days, Qin Yang did what he said. He neither sent anyone to the front line to check the battle situation, nor did he listen to anything about the situation on the front line of Runan City.
Except for handling the trivial military affairs among the Yellow Turban Army, he stayed quietly in the golden dome tent and did not mention a word about the war in Runan.
This day was the third day that Qin Yang led Huang Tianying back to the ancient city from Runan City. Qin Yang opened the golden-domed tent early at dawn and beat drums to summon the generals to discuss matters.
The generals didn't think anything of getting up so early, but the two new things outside the golden dome tent made them curious. On the left side of the golden dome tent, dozens of jars of fine wine were piled up into a hill.
On the side were several boxes of gold, silver, jades, cloth and other dazzling valuables.
On the right side, it's very simple. A blood-stained wooden stake is nailed diagonally with an extremely sharp ghost-headed sword. The blade is cold, and the blade that drinks countless blood releases a frightening blood.
spirit.
After entering the golden-domed tent, they saw a piece of silk book held on a wooden tray on Qin Yang's desk in public. They immediately stopped their speculations. They all knew that the things on both sides of the tent were
Prepared for Yan Yan, the commander-in-chief of the Yizhou Army. If Yan Yan wins, he will be rewarded with gold, silver, fine wine, and glory. If he fails, there is no need to talk nonsense. The guillotine and killing knife are all ready, and all that is left is a human head to sacrifice the flag.
.
It seems that Qin Yang is really angry this time. He has ignored the war in Runan for the past few days and is waiting for today's results. Isn't Yan Yan arrogant? Doesn't he need the help of the alliance leader? Doesn't the company send a supervising team?
Are they all going to draw their swords against each other? The Yellow Turban King Ming waited quietly to see if the Yizhou Army would be honored or his head would be missing!
"Report——!" The voice of the messenger broke the silence in the big tent, and the hearts of all the generals tightened instantly. It was not that they had a deep friendship with Yan Yan or the Yizhou Army, but that no matter how stupid they were,
Knowing that Qin Yang is waiting to make a very difficult decision that is likely to affect the situation of the entire world.
"Reporting to His Highness King Ming, General Yan Yan of Yizhou led the remnants of Yizhou back to the camp. He is now tied outside the camp gate and begging His Highness to apologize!"
"Wow——!" Yan Yan did not capture Runan City! This news was like a huge boulder thrown into the calm lake, instantly setting off huge waves in the golden-domed tent.
If Yan Yan, who had not captured Runan City, had not returned to the ancient city but gone to the Yizhou Army camp on the east side of the ancient city, maybe Qin Yang would not be able to do anything to him. But that would mean that Yan Yan admitted his failure.
, and he has to carry the shame of being defeated and fleeing for his whole life. On the contrary, if Yan Yan comes to the ancient city camp, what awaits him is the cold ghost-headed sword outside the tent.
"Drag him in! Remember, I said drag, don't let him walk in by himself!" Qin Yang said in a deep voice with no expression on his face.
After a while, there was a sound of shouting and cursing outside the golden-domed tent. It must have been that Yan Yan's subordinates couldn't bear Yan Yan's humiliation and had a dispute with the guarding soldiers.
Suddenly Yan Yan's voice rang out, and he didn't know what he said to those Yizhou generals. After those Yizhou generals yelled and cursed a few more times, the chaotic voices gradually died down.
"Chichi..." The sound of dragging heavy objects rang out. After a while, two guards dragged the body covered in blood and mud, motionless and stern as a dead man, into the golden-domed tent, and threw it heavily to the ground.
"General!..." Outside the Jinding tent, Meng Da and many other Yizhou generals saw Yan Yan falling to the ground. They couldn't help but exclaimed in unison, and rushed to rush into the tent.
"You all stop! Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!" The dead Yan Yan suddenly opened his eyes wide, stared at the Yizhou general outside the tent and roared. Meng Da and others were stunned. Although Yan Yan was bound, the former general Yu Wei
Still, they dare not disobey military orders.
After seeing everyone stop, Yan Yan took a breath, slowly stood up and faced Qin Yang and said: "Alliance Leader, Yan Yan has failed the Alliance Leader's high expectations and failed to capture Runan City within three days. I am willing to be punished by military law!"
At this moment, Yan Yan's face and beard and hair were all spread out, and his eyes were full of unwillingness. Although his body was stained and tied with ropes, he could not hide his heroic spirit. Although most of the Yellow Turban generals looked down on the Yizhou Army
, but at this moment, I can't help but deeply admire Yan Yan's courage. Even if the general is like this, I'm afraid his men will definitely not be cowards. It seems that taking Runan City in three days is indeed a bit difficult.
"Yan Yan, is this the military order you issued?" Qin Yang said with a cold expression, pointing to the tray on the desk.
"Yes, the military order was issued by me. Runan City will not be breached for three days. Yan Yan will counteract it with his life. There will be no complaints."
Qin Yang smiled and said: "That's good! Then let me ask you, now that three days have passed, whose flag is planted on Runan City?"
"The banner still planted is the flag of the traitor Yuan Shu. Our Yizhou army fought day and night until dawn today, but we still haven't captured Runan." Yan Yan said angrily.
"Okay, come here! Pull Yan Yan down and behead him for public display!" Qin Yang casually picked up the general's order and threw it heavily into the tent, saying loudly.
"Yes!" The guards on both sides immediately took the order and rushed forward to pull Yan Yan away.
"Let's see who dares!" A loud shout rang out from outside the tent. At this moment, Meng Da ignored Yan Yan's military order, drew his sword and rushed into the tent like a wind. The guards with red eyes were beside Yan Yan. At the same time, the rest
The Yizhou generals also woke up from a dream, rushed into the tent and surrounded Yan Yan tightly among them.
"Meng Da! Back off!" Yan Yan shouted angrily.
"Mengda, do you dare to disobey military orders?!" Qin Yang said coldly with a face as cold as frost.
Meng Da was holding a sword at the moment, looking at Qin Yang with red eyes, and shouted loudly: "Sir, leader of the alliance, I, Meng Da, am a rough man and don't understand military orders. But I know that General Yan has led our Yizhou soldiers.
I didn't close my eyes for two days and two nights, thinking about taking Runan City all the time! We had a hundred thousand troops, leaving nearly ten thousand corpses under Yizhou City! There were countless injured! We did our best, General Yan did his best! Leader of the Alliance
, there are a full 150,000 troops in Yizhou City! They paid far greater casualties than our army to defend the city! As long as the leader of the alliance gives our army another ten days, no! Five days! In five more days, we
Even if we fight to the last soldier, we will still plant the dragon flag of the Han Empire at the top of Runan City!"
The more Meng Da talked, the more excited he became. Finally, he knelt down in front of Qin Yang with a bang and said in a hissing voice: "Alliance leader, let us die gloriously like heroes under Runan City! Please let General Yan take the blame and meritorious service."
!”
The iron-bone man burst into tears. Every word Meng Da said hit the hearts of the Yellow Turban generals. A general will inevitably die in a hundred battles. Being able to die on the battlefield is the honor of every soldier. See
Yan Yan was like this, and all the generals felt a faint feeling of sadness.
But only Qin Yang's face was still cold. After listening to Meng Da's words, he couldn't help but smile coldly, "What did you say? Die like a hero? Humph, don't look down on heroes too much! Let me tell you, you Yizhou
The army is just a bunch of useless trash! A bunch of trash who are only worthy of being cannon fodder for our Yellow Turban Army! The only ones who can die like heroes are our Yellow Turban Army! And you, only deserve to be executed by military law in humiliation!"
Silence, deathly silence. Meng Da and other Yizhou generals could not help but tremble at Qin Yang's ruthless words. Even the Yellow Turban generals in the camp looked at His Highness Prince Ming, whom they had always admired, in disbelief.
No one thought that Qin Yang, who had always been cynical, would say such harsh words. Even though Qin Yang was praising the bravery of the Yellow Turban Army, the Yellow Turban generals still felt a chill coming from the bottom of their hearts. His Highness Prince Ming
What happened today?! In the impression of the Yellow Turban generals, the Yellow Turban King Ming has always been the kind of person who "can take action and try not to quarrel, can kill but never humiliates others".
"Qin Yang, I, Yan Yan, misjudged you! Meng Da, you don't have to plead for me! Bowing down to such a villain is the greatest humiliation for a man from Yizhou!" Yan Yan's cold voice broke the golden tent.
In the silence, a pair of tiger eyes looked hatefully at Qin Yang, who was sitting on the main seat.
"The general is right! We are not like treacherous people begging for mercy! Let's go back to Yizhou!" Gao Pei pulled Meng Da up and said loudly.
"Go back to Yizhou?!" After Qin Yang heard this, a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Yan Yan, do you want to live or die?!" Qin Yang suddenly said after hesitating.
"Hmph, I wanted to live just now. But now, I want to die quickly!" Yan Yan said with a sneer.
Qin Yang slapped the table and shouted: "Okay, I will make it happen..."
"Wait!" Meng Da saw that Qin Yang seemed to be a little loose in his words, and he really couldn't bear Yan Yan to die. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "I wonder how the leader can let General Yan go?"
Qin Yang smiled slightly and said: "It is easy to let Yan Yan go. As long as Yan Yan swears allegiance to me, I will naturally not kill my own general."
"Impossible! I, Yan Yan, am upright and upright, how can I be loyal to a treacherous villain! Qin Yang, you should kill a certain family quickly, so as not to make me sick!" Yan Yan looked up to the sky and shouted with a loud laugh.
"Yan Yan, how dare you act so presumptuously now?! Come here! Drag him out..." Qin Yang got angry and slapped the case.
"Your Highness!" At this moment, Jia Xu suddenly stood up, saluted and said: "Your Highness, General Yan cannot be killed!"
"It's just a common man, why can't he be killed?" Qin Yang's eyes flashed coldly.
Guo Jia also stood up and said: "Your Highness, Military Master Jia is right. By killing Yan Yan, we have forged a long-cherished wish with Yizhou. Now that the Yuan brothers are rebelling, we can't make trouble..."
The generals of the Yellow Turban Army also reacted at this moment and hurriedly echoed: "Your Highness, please think twice..."
Seeing that so many people were interceding for Yan Yan, Meng Da, Gao Pei and others could not help but feel hope again in their hearts, and quickly said: "If the leader can spare General Yan, we guarantee that our lord Liu Zhang will be grateful to the leader and never be with His Highness.
As an enemy..."
"You..." Qin Yang saw that almost all the civil and military personnel in the tent were pleading for Yan Yan, and he couldn't help but feel angry for a moment and fell into deep thought.
After a long while, Qin Yang finally said with a livid face: "Yan Yan, I wouldn't dare to kill you unless it was you! But since you are still of some use, I will spare you this time! Someone comes, drag Yan Yan out and beat him hard.
One hundred army sticks. After the stick is healed, let him lead the Yizhou army to continue attacking the city!"
