Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Hong Youjin knelt on the ground with his hands raised high.

The incident happened so unexpectedly that all the Northern Dynasty soldiers present were stunned.

Qin Ming was also a little surprised when he saw this scene.

He knew that the Northern Dynasty's troops were weak, but he didn't expect them to be so weak.

Even if Emperor Qian specially arranged for the main forces of the major generals' offices to come, they still did not dare to fight.

"Those who surrender will not be killed."

Qin Ming glanced at the Northern Dynasty soldiers who were showing their indignation at the scene and spoke lightly.

These elite troops definitely want to fight.

But the generals who command them don't think so.

"I surrender!"

"I surrender too!"

With clangs and bangs, several generals followed Hong Youjin, threw down their weapons and surrendered.

The soldiers who came to support were extremely angry at this moment and started shouting and cursing.

"Asshole! Did the court arrange for us to come here to support you, just to be captured with you?"

"Fight them!"

Faced with the accusations of the soldiers present, Hong Youjin immediately hid behind and dared not respond.

Several deputy generals around him hurried out to comfort him.

"As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. Everyone, please don't be stubborn."

"Yes, we definitely can't defeat them. Moreover, the Southern Dynasty is much stronger than the Northern Dynasty. Even if they are unified, it would just be His Majesty passing the throne to the former Crown Prince. What difference does it make?"

Qin Ming and the soldiers of Wulongling were waiting quietly around, and soon they saw Hong Youjin coming with his men.

"The deal has been made. We surrender."

"Give them a group and take them away."

Although the battlefield ended so unexpectedly, it was a bit surprising.

But Qin Ming did not stay for too long. After the battle of Wulong Ridge ended, he went to Honglin Mountain.

There are a large number of government soldiers among the Honglin Mountain troops.

When Qin Ming arrived in the evening, they were still fighting with Qin Ming's troops on the mountain.

Although they were shocked when they saw Qin Ming, they still took the opportunity to resist fiercely.

The final result can be imagined.

Qin Ming's Tian Ji horse racing strategy had exhausted the Yan army to the point that it had little strength to fight again. At this time, his strongest troops turned around and besieged the Northern Dynasty's troops.

The outcome is already decided.

Soon, Honglin Mountain and Taihetan were both taken over by Qin Ming.

In the evening, Qin Ming returned to the camp with more than 3,000 prisoners.

Wu Qingye also ended the battle and arrived here with a group of people.

"Your Majesty, I have captured over two thousand people. What should I do with them?"

Qin Ming's rear was short of people, and generally speaking, these prisoners would be arranged to do some odd jobs in the rear.

After thinking for a while, Qin Ming pointed at the warehouse and said:

"I saw that they didn't eat well today, so I prepared some compressed biscuits for them."

During the battle today, Qin Ming discovered that the food the enemy soldiers ate was very strange.

It seemed to be flour mixed with wood ash and some food scraps.

If you eat this kind of thing for a long time, no matter how strong your fighting power is, you won’t be able to exert it.

It seems that my father really has no money left.

"Compressed biscuits? You'd better give me more. My subordinates here won't eat them."

Wu Qingye agreed with both hands.

Each unit has a quota of compressed biscuits.

However, this kind of food is not as popular as regular military rations because it tastes too dry and has a simple flavor.

Many troops would only reluctantly bring some with them when they were marching long distances.

This also caused a pile-up of compressed biscuits in the military camp.

It’s just right that these Northern Dynasty soldiers are coming here to help them consume some of the energy.

"Your Majesty, if we take out this kind of supplies, can they eat it?"

After Wu Qingye had someone push over a dozen carts of oil-paper packages, he looked at Qin Ming with some curiosity.

"Don't worry, you haven't seen what they eat now."

"Go get some more water, and tomorrow write a letter to the enemy camp, asking them to surrender."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Qin Ming decided not to continue.

The Northern Dynasty’s troops did not really dare to fight, but the war situation had developed to the point where they had no choice but to take action.

But after the real collision, they still realized the gap between them and Qin Ming.

This once again dampened their fighting spirit.

On the other side, inside the Yan army camp.

Yan Guangshou, along with Kong Jinwu, Yan Wanjun and others, was still commanding battles on various fronts.

Of their dozen or so divisions, only seven are left.

The battle has become extremely fierce.

But any discerning person could see that the Yan army was in a state of decline.

If we continue like this, there is no way we can win this war.

While inspecting the military camp in the evening, Yan Guangshou once again saw a group of soldiers holding their stomachs and running back and forth in the mountains and forests.

"Why is it still like this?"

He looked at Kong Jinwu with some displeasure.

Ever since they arrived at the border of the Central Plains, Kong Jinwu asked someone to report that his troops were not acclimatizing to the local climate and water.

But there should be a limit to acclimatization.

The battle between the two sides lasted from early autumn to winter, but the diarrhea and abdominal pain of this group of people had not been relieved at all.

This is also a major factor affecting their combat effectiveness.

"I've consulted many doctors and given them medicine every day, but there's no effect..."

Kong Jinwu was also very surprised.

Acclimatization seemed to persist throughout the entire war.

It shouldn't have lasted this long.

"Someone poisoned me!"

Finally, the mystery that had troubled them for many days was solved by Yan Guangshou.

"This was definitely done by Qin Ming!"

He angrily went to the warehouse nearby and came out with the extremely rough military rations inside.

"Get some people over here!"

"Yes!"

Kong Jinwu randomly pulled a few soldiers who hadn't eaten yet. Yan Guangshou glanced at them and said with a gloomy face:

"Divide into two groups, and one group will eat these."

"The rest I'll take with me into the mountains to hunt, and we'll eat it tonight."

"Yes!"

Yan Guangshou angrily led a group of people into the mountains and forests. He refused to eat the food in the army and went hunting for dinner.

In contrast, the soldiers led by Kong Jinwu and Yan Wanjun soon developed symptoms of dull stomach pain.

Yan Guangshou's face suddenly turned ugly when he returned.

"How much did Qin Ming do behind the scenes?!"

"This bastard!"

He considered himself a star general of the Yan Dynasty. Having experienced wars for many years, his ability to lead troops was definitely not inferior to others.

But he happened to meet Qin Ming.

The opponent has countless tricks up his sleeve.

This time, even the supply of materials during the entire war will have subtle but far-reaching problems.

Seeing him so furious, the generals around him didn't dare to breathe.

After a long silence, Yan Guangshou suddenly said:

"Go and throw the bodies of all the fallen soldiers on the battlefield at the gates of Changning Pass and Bailong Pass."

"Since Qin Ming dares to play dirty, I'll accompany him!"

The mountains of corpses and seas of blood in war are not the most dangerous thing.

On the contrary, the danger is higher in battlefields that have experienced a major war and are left unattended.

This is because the endless corpses will cause plague and disease.

Yan Guangshou was being played around by Qin Ming without being noticed, and he was completely furious.

Even if he loses the battle, he will drag Qin Ming down with him!
