"Come on, we are going to take advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, and the Yuan army on the opposite side has already begun to retreat."

Seeing that the Yuan army had begun to retreat gradually, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately gave an order, and then many people on his side mounted their horses and began to charge forward, even the artillery who fired the guns rushed over with a knife.

"Run, run, Song Jun must have invited gods and demons to help, we can't beat them, let's run for our lives, run!"

The morale of the Yuan army had always been supported by hard work, but now facing a huge loss of numbers and the impact of firearms from the opposing phalanxes such as the Qin army and the Ming army, the defeated army of the Yuan army immediately began to snowball, getting bigger and bigger.

They all turned around and fled backwards, even those who were unwilling to flee were drowned in the torrent by the defeated army.

In ancient China, the possibility of fighting a war of annihilation in which all the people were wiped out was actually very small. After most armies were defeated, most people would surrender. So how high was this number?
The number of surrenders is as high as 1% to 5000% of an army. If you read it correctly, it is [-]% to [-]%. If you have an army of [-] people, you will be at a disadvantage on the battlefield, and it looks like you will lose , then about [-] of your men will surrender.

This does not mean that this army is bad, but that in the ancient army, fighting is completely dependent on morale. They lack enough communication with each other, and they don't know what their teammates are doing, so they can only rely on one breath. Hold on.

But when the loss of an army reaches [-]%, the morale of the army will begin to gradually collapse.

Because man is a herd animal, when one person around him surrenders, the other person who is afraid of death will also surrender immediately, and when two people who are afraid of death surrender, the other person who is not firm will also choose to surrender.

In this way, one by one, one by one, one by one, one army is slowly wiped out.

Some armies are well-trained and have a slightly firmer will, so their morale is better than that of ordinary armies. They will probably have to wait until five of their troops are lost before their morale begins to decline. This level has shown that they are a Just strengthen the army.

And those armies that collapsed after attrition reached [-]% are all famous armies in history, such as Tang Wang Li Shimin's Xuanjia Army, General Yue Feiyue's Yue Family Army, Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, these armies are because of their strong willpower , Strong physical fitness, can be the best above other armies.

Obviously, although the Yuan army is powerful, it is also relative to the Song army, so they cannot reach the level of elite soldiers.

Now they have about three layers of wear and tear, plus they are confused about the life and death of their master, it's no wonder they don't run away.

"Cut them all up, fast, don't let them crowd together, cut them all into phalanxes!"

Ask his subordinates to cut the Yuan army into phalanxes and break up their condensed strength. Zhu Yuanzhang and others then began to break through one by one.

"What, I didn't find it all, and let him run away?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, we searched all the phalanxes, but we couldn't find Kublai Khan."

"Fuck!"

Zhu Yuanzhang stomped his feet a few times angrily, then turned around in a hurry.

"It shouldn't be, we have already arrested everyone, how could he run away."

"Kublai Khan must have realized something was wrong, and then ran away ahead of time."

Looking at the phalanx of captives separated one by one, Li Shimin and Zhao Heng were looking at them, thinking about what to do with so many captives.

Hundreds of thousands of captives must not be killed, otherwise it would be too wasteful of resources, and not everyone has such a big killing intent in vain.

"What should we do, should we let them go?"

"Impossible. Da Song Heshan hasn't recovered yet. Letting them go is just asking for trouble, so it's impossible to let them go."

This 50 army is the backbone of Meng Yuan. Without this 50 army, Meng Yuan is now a toothless tiger who can be bullied by others, so Zhao Heng will not agree to let the tiger go back to the mountain.

"It's not good to keep it for nothing. There are too many people here, and it's a waste of food."

Although their army's logistics were no longer short of food after having Li Yi, Li Shimin's temperament still did not allow him to waste resources on these useless efforts.

"Forget it, let's not think about it for now. Let's wait for them to clean up the battlefield first, and then we can plan a recovery route now."

Several people turned around and returned to the military tent. Before they had time to take out the map, Ying Zheng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

"Everyone, maybe our plan will be postponed for a few days."

"?????"

"why?"

Looking at Ying Zheng, several other people looked puzzled, why should we delay, isn't it better to make a quick decision?
"Because we have other things to do soon."

After finishing speaking, a smile like an old chrysanthemum suddenly appeared on Ying Zheng's face, and then he took out several invitation cards from his sleeve and handed them to the three emperors.

"Five days later, the little girl Shiman and Li Yi will hold a wedding ceremony in Old Zhao's Bianliang City. Please come and enjoy it!"

After bowing to the other three bewildered emperors, Ying Zheng left the big tent with a smile.

"This news...is a bit sudden."

Holding the invitation card in his hand, Zhao Heng looked confused. Didn't he say that Li Yi would get married after his legs recovered? Why did he start now?

"It's no wonder this guy hasn't spoken recently. It turns out that he has been holding back his big moves. This trick is too cruel. Now we can't compare with him at all!"

"Hey, what can we do? Now we can only go and take a good look, and then become guests at the door."

Looking at the invitation card in his hand, Li Shimin wanted to tear it up very much. Originally, among these emperors, the one who was closest to Li Yi should be his own Tang Dynasty. After all, his son Chengqian is now Li Yi's apprentice.

But with this invitation, it will not be the case in the future, and his son Chengqian still wants to call Yingzheng's daughter a teacher.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin's expression became even uglier, what kind of thing is this shit!
"Tsk tsk, five days, it seems that I have to go back and prepare. At that time, I must not lose face in front of a few other people. The battle here really cannot be fought anymore. Let's take it easy."

Patting Zhao Heng on the shoulder, Zhu Yuanzhang began to tell people to call back the troops, and then returned to Quanzhou City with his men and a lot of spoils. Here, Zhao Heng gave him a special warehouse for storing things.

"Why, my mother's invitations have already been sent out, and people may have received the news that they are going to attend the banquet, but you are still hesitating here, are you itchy today?"

Slapping the table hard, Mother Li looked at Li Yi with wide eyes.

"No, no, I..."

Standing here, Li Yi felt that the situation was very embarrassing. This time when he came back to transport troops, someone came to block him as soon as his feet touched the ground, and told him that his mother had something to ask him for.

After Li Yi came here confused, he didn't expect that what he was talking about was this kind of thing, which really gave Li Yi a headache.

Without Li Yi's consent, his mother actually set a date for Li Yi's marriage without Li Yi's consent, which made Li Yi stunned instantly.

"Mother, didn't I tell you that after my injury heals, I will marry Shiman immediately."

"After the injury is healed, don't you still have the injury now? How dare you lie to me, you little bastard!"

Li's mother rushed over and snatched Li Yi's crutches away, frightened Li Yi hurriedly swayed a few steps, then stood there and looked at Li's mother in embarrassment.

It turns out that Li Yi's injury has healed a long time ago, but for some reason, when he thought of getting married, Li Yi's heart immediately felt a wave of fear, so after thinking twice, Li Yi decided to find a crutch and continue pretending for a while. .

Unexpectedly, the Tao is one foot tall, and the devil is one foot tall, and today he was exposed by his own mother.

"I...I...I...this..."

After stammering for a long time, Li Yi didn't know what to say, so he could only stand there blankly, and he didn't dare to look up at the angry old lady and the dull Ying Shiman.

"Forget it, Auntie, maybe Li Yi also has his own difficulties. Now he is so busy every day and has his own important things to do. We shouldn't delay him with the love of our children. We can delay the marriage. Let's not rush."

Holding back the tears in her eyes, Ying Shiman forced a smile to comfort the angry mother Li.

"Li Yi, your mother, I will leave the words here today. Let's make it clear today. At the beginning, you promised to marry Shiman after your injury recovered, but now you continue to pretend to be sick here. Why, look down on Shiman, this mother-in-law, if you look down on you, just say, my Li family can't delay such a good girl."

With a cold face, Li's mother took Ying Shiman's hand. These days, this girl has been busy from morning to night preparing for her marriage, and she is always smiling, not feeling bitter at all, but now?
Now I can only stand here and shed tears because of this brat being wronged, what can people say, hey!
"I didn't, I didn't say I wouldn't get married, I just... just... I..."

After holding back for a long time, Li Yi still didn't say anything about his fear of getting married. After all, it was too embarrassing.

"It's just what, tell me, maybe it's because you have great skills and feel that Shiman is not good enough for you, so I still want to find more. If this is the case, I will ask people to take back the invitations that I sent out now. In the future, you I don't care about it anymore."

Patting on the table, Mother Li decided to have a final fight with Li Yigang today.

"No, no, Shiman is such a good girl, how could I look down on her? Mother, you misunderstood. According to what you said, we will get married in five days. I agreed, and it will be as usual in five days. marry."

Gritting his teeth fiercely, Li Yi no longer hesitated, but opened his mouth to agree to the matter.

"Hey, what should I do now?"

Back in his room, Li Yi kept moaning and sighing. Now that he reluctantly agreed to the marriage, what if he made a mistake five days later?
It's not that Li Yi doesn't like Charmaine Ying. Charmaine Ying is a beautiful girl with a very good temper. She also helps Li Yi take care of his old mother. Li Yi is very satisfied with these things, but what if Li Yi likes her?
There is absolutely no way to overcome marriage phobia in a short period of time. Do you want to find a psychiatrist?
Maybe it's because of the heavy burden since he was a child, or maybe it's because he's been single for a long time, for some reason, Li Yi always has an inexplicable fear of getting married and starting a family, as if once he gets married, he will be ruined.

That's why Li Yi kept refusing, procrastinating, and didn't dare to say the reason.

"dong dong dong"

"Please come in."

"Crackling..."

Seeing the people walking in from the door, Li Yi immediately stood up in a panic, and then had nowhere to put his hands.

"Shiman, why are you here?"

"Mr. Li, let me come and see you and talk."

"Don't, don't, Shiman, you should call me Li Yi, come, sit here."

Li Yi walked over and took Ying Shiman's hand, let Ying Shiman sit beside him, and then hurriedly bought himself a cup of tea.

Suddenly my mouth felt a little dry. . .

"Shiman, what do you want me to do here?"

"Li Yi, I came here to tell you..."

Her face was tangled for a while, before Ying Shiman could speak, Li Yi immediately blocked her words.

"I want to marry you. I don't dislike you. Really, I will marry you."

"Li Yi, if you don't like me, don't force it. If you are under pressure from your aunt, I will explain it clearly."

For girls in ancient times, love and marriage were words and topics that they were shy about speaking. But now the shy Ying Charmaine didn't even want to be shameless, and simply announced it directly to Li Yi.

"No, I really like you. You have been with me for so long. Don't you understand that I like you."

"Then why did you refuse to marry me?"

Speaking of this, Ying Shiman's tears came down. She worked so hard for so many days to look forward to it, but the answer she got was that Li Yi was pretending to be sick and didn't want to get married. Who knew how disheartened she was at that moment, At that moment, she wished she could die.

"Because...because...hey!"

After all, she is the wife who will live her whole life in the future, so Li Yi simply told Ying Shiman the truth.

"How can there be such a disease?"

Holding Li Yi's hand, Ying Shiman looked worried.

"I don't know either. If I knew, I would go for treatment. It is because of this disease that I have never dared to marry you. I actually like you."

Holding Ying Shiman's hand, Li Yi looked affectionate.

"Then, what should we do next? Why don't we cancel the wedding and we'll get married after you recover from illness."

Ying Shiman was very conflicted about saying this, but for Li Yi, she was willing to pay the price.

"No, no, no, no, no, it will be too embarrassing for you. The wedding is as usual. I will solve my heart problems."

After finishing speaking, Li Yi looked into the distance, maybe he was going to deliver the invitation in person.
