Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 398 The annihilation war begins, the end of the Yan army!

This was the first large-scale gathering of troops they had seen since the start of this battle.

Their timing was perfect!

Take action when the Yan army's fighting spirit is fading and they are fleeing in panic!

"Good boy."

Qin Ming, who was following behind, burst into laughter when he saw Heifu fighting with the Yan army.

Although he was very thin, when Qin Ming actually participated in the war, he found that Heifu's combat power was not weak.

He moved very nimbly, moving left and right among the army and killing many enemies.

"Who gathered this group of troops?"

Qin Ming turned and looked at a captain of the Wuwei Camp.

The other party pointed at Hei Fu and said:

"It's this guy. When he was being chased by the Yan army, he moved towards us. He also called a few troops and set up an ambush in advance."

The appearance of Heifu caused the retreating Yan army to be like a stream of water, which was suddenly cut off halfway and could no longer move forward.

The dozens of small troops scattered across the battlefield were like newly opened waterways, forcibly diverting the mainstream water source and dividing it into countless tributaries, making the number of the Yan army smaller and smaller.

Qin Ming, who was in the distance, looked at this scene with some surprise, and there was a hint of relief on his face.

The schools built in various places with so much effort are finally put to use.

The mere existence of the military academy helped them establish a huge advantage on the battlefield.

"He's a very spiritual person. Pay close attention to him these few days. If you make any progress, please report it to me."

Qin Ming gave instructions to his men, and unable to suppress his desire to take action, he immediately joined the expedition.

The battle was fought in a scattered manner, and the attack that was both fake and real resulted in almost half of Yan Guangshou's 8,000 troops being reduced by the time they returned.

In the evening, as the troops who had just retreated from the Bailongguan battlefield entered the barracks, they heard bursts of painful wails.

Looking down, I saw wounded soldiers lying all over the open space of the military camp.

The situation is much worse than for those who go to the front line.

Yan Guangshou, Kong Jinwu and Yan Wanjun stood among them, and each of them looked as if they had lost their parents.

Especially Yan Guangshou.

His face was filled with confusion, reluctance, fear, panic and anger.

Yan Guangshou was extremely confused at this moment.

He didn't know how to fight against such a powerful enemy like Qin Ming.

After only fighting for less than two months, Qin Ming's fighting style changed again and again.

After fighting for so long, I didn't even have a chance to fight back.

How much preparation had he made?

After returning today, Yan Guangshou, Yan Wanjun and the other two no longer discussed how to defeat Qin Ming.

Their top priority is to think of how to continue fighting Qin Ming.

But the final result was not good. The three of them thought about it for a long time, but still didn't know how to deal with this flexible and changeable tactic.

"General, withdraw your troops."

Finally, Kong Jinwu could not bear the tremendous pressure.

At the beginning, Yan Guangshou repeatedly ordered that the army's morale should not be disturbed.

But he couldn't care less.

"you……"

In Yan Guangshou's confused emotions, anger suddenly erupted, but then stopped abruptly.

He couldn't think of any reason to scold Kong Jinwu.

Jianfeng Pass cut off the connection between the Yan army and the Northern Dynasty troops, and the new tactics made the Yan army completely unable to adapt.

The remaining troops at Henglan Pass have joined forces with other Southern Dynasty troops to surround themselves from three sides.

In this situation, let alone a genius like Qin Ming, even if Yan Guangshou was tied to a dog, he really couldn't think of how he would lose.

But can they return to Yan Dynasty?

The answer is no. If you fight so badly, you will die if you go back.

It would be better to continue fighting here.

Thinking of this, Yan Guangshou said angrily:

"There's another way. We can cross a part of the Taiping Mountains and join the troops in Xishan!"

The troops in Xishan have preserved the most complete strength at this stage.

Although they suffered losses, they never engaged in a large-scale battle with Qin Ming.

If Yan Guangshou wants to turn the tables or make a final effort, he must unite with them.

As for the battlefield that he had painstakingly built for so long, he was ready to completely withdraw.

"But General, the Taiping Mountains are not easy to cross. Can we make it with our current situation?"

Yan Wanjun spoke hesitantly.

Yan Guangshou took out a map and pointed to the Taiping Mountains running north and south.

"Moving laterally isn't difficult. We can get through in a few days. We just need to break their siege!"

"Do you have a way to break their offensive?"

Yan Wanjun and Kong Jinwu reacted immediately.

"No, but when the entire army is on the move, we are not afraid of stragglers."

Yan Guangshou has slowed down his goal, hoping to find a glimmer of possibility for a turnaround.

"It is said that there is miasma in the Taiping Mountains that lingers year-round. If our people go there, they may suffer heavy losses."

At this time, Kong Jinwu checked the map of this place and raised this question again.

Yan Wanjun shook his head.

"Qin Ming's troops were able to make it through. We're crossing horizontally. Compared to their vertical crossing, it will probably take less than half the time. We can't expect to lose too many people."

Their logistical supplies are indeed not as strong as Qin Mingqiang's.

But correspondingly, the distance they need to traverse is also reduced a lot.

From this perspective, not too many people will die.

After thinking about it, Yan Guangshou was still a little worried, so he turned to Yan Wanjun and said:

"First, arrange for a few scouts to go to the Taiping Mountains to check out the miasma there."

"Yes!"

Yan Wanjun also felt it necessary to conduct an investigation in advance, so he immediately arranged for people to go to the Taiping Mountains.

In the past few days, Yan Guangshou and his troops have obviously slowed down their offensive.

This also gave Qin Ming and his troops some time to rest.

Qin Ming took the opportunity to let his troops rest on the spot.

But his decision made Chenpi, who came over, feel a little strange.

"Your Majesty, why don't we attack them while they are recuperating these past few days, giving them a chance to catch their breath?"

“They want to go into the mountains.”

Qin Ming took a sip of tea, put the military book in his hand on the table, and spoke to him with a smile.

"Into the mountains...?"

"Well, where is Cao Chuan now?"

Seeing Qin Ming planning and strategizing, Chen Pi had to put aside his doubts and report Cao Chuan's situation.

"General Cao has gone up the river and arrived at Henglan Pass, where I was before."

"Let him go. You all coordinate with his attack and from now on force the entire Yan army into the Taiping Mountains."

Qin Ming spoke lightly.

"But will they cooperate like this?"

Chenpi knew about the Taiping Mountains.

If the Yan army enters the Taiping Mountains at this moment, it will be a death sentence for Yan Guangshou!

"Do you think Yan Guangshou still has a choice now?"

Qin Ming had already built an airtight defense network.

There is only one way left for them, and even if there are some problems on this road, they can only swallow the bitter fruit.

After Qin Ming's troops began to move, Yan Wanjun, who had been conducting secret reconnaissance outside, also reported the news to Yan Guangshou.

"General, there's no news from all the scouts we sent out!"

"What!?"

The moment he heard these words, Yan Guangshou's face immediately became gloomy.
