The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince
Chapter 451: Breakthrough
The rest of the time was spent collecting prisoners. Jiang Fan had Guan Yizhi's body collected. He turned his head and looked at Guan Yizhong, who was trembling with fear and had a pale face.
Compared to his brother, Guan Yi Zhong is really unbearable. His brother would rather die than surrender for the sake of his posthumous reputation, and he would even die to prove his will in order to arouse the fighting spirit of his soldiers!
But what about Guan Yizhong? Apart from being arrogant and domineering, he is now spineless.
"Don't kill me... I am willing to surrender! Don't kill me..." Guan Yizhong was so frightened when he saw Jiang Fan looking at him that he kowtowed repeatedly. There was deep fear in his eyes.
At this moment, he no longer had the arrogance and complacency he had in the Golden Palace of Dayan.
"Guan Yi Zhong, do you still think your Dashi Army can win?" Jiang Fan came in front of Guan Yi Zhong and looked down at this spineless guy in front of him.
"Your Highness, I was wrong... I shouldn't have been so arrogant. Your Highness, you are so powerful that we, the little Daishi, can't resist you. My brother overestimated his own abilities and dared to go against you. He deserves to die! Well done!"
Guan Yizhong immediately put on a fawning look and tried to please him again and again.
His words made Li Changle frown, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes. Upon hearing this, the captured Dashi Army soldiers looked at Guan Yizhong with anger in their eyes.
As a member of the Great Western Dynasty, this guy doesn't have any backbone at all. In order to save his own life, he even insulted his own brother. Is he worthy of being a human being?
If they had not surrendered at this moment and had no power to control themselves, they would have probably already rushed forward and tore Guan Yizhong to pieces.
Jiang Fan looked at Guan Yizhong, who was in such an ugly state, and smiled playfully, "Guan Yizhong, do you know why I have kept you here until now? Do you really think I won't kill you?"
Guan Yizhong was slightly stunned when he heard this. He shook his head nervously, his eyes full of pleading.
"I spared your life only to let you see with your own eyes that what you rely on is nothing in front of me! However, compared to your brother, you... are the one who deserves to die the most!"
Jiang Fan's voice was cold. At the end, he swung the Mo Dao in his hand and chopped off Guan Yizhong's head in one stroke under Guan Yizhong's horrified gaze.
When the soldiers of the Dashi Army saw this scene, there was no fear in their eyes, but instead they looked happy.
Jiang Fan didn't look at the corpse on the ground again. He returned the Mo Dao to the soldier, turned around and left with everyone.
In the other three directions, the army was collecting prisoners. They did not encounter too fierce resistance. After the enemy entered the encirclement, they just shouted to surrender but did not kill them.
The Dashi troops were in complete chaos. They surrendered one after another regardless of their generals' roars. Some even raised their swords and killed the roaring and angry generals on the spot.
The remaining people all surrendered. What happened during the day had made everyone lose the will to fight, except for those led by Guan Yizhi who still had some will to fight.
The soldiers in the other three directions had no intention of fighting at all. The words "surrender and no killing" directly broke the last line of defense in their hearts.
They are all trapped in the encirclement. If they resist, they will die. If they don't resist, they will live. What do you think they will choose? Who would be stupid enough to fight?
They even predicted your late-night escape, so what else can't they predict? Jiang Fan's terrifying ability to plan has frightened the Dashi Army.
Therefore, apart from a brief battle at the East Gate, there were almost no conflicts in the other three directions. Even if there were small-scale battles where the Daxi generals did not want to surrender, they were suppressed by their own people.
Just like that, the Dashi Army in Jiangyue City was defeated and captured more than 270,000 enemy troops the day after Jiang Fan arrived. The army commander Guan Yizhi was killed in the battle!
Jiang Xin almost completely fulfilled his promise to take Jiangyue City without bloodshed. The casualties of his army of more than 200,000 were almost negligible!
After the war, Ning Zhen, Chu Xinghe and other veterans couldn't believe it was true! They said they were old and outdated! They admired Jiang Fan very much.
The defeat of the Dashi Army was doomed from the moment Jiang Fan and Chu Yan'er cooperated to eliminate the two acropolises of Jiangyue City. However, they did not expect it to happen so quickly.
I would never have thought that Jiang Fan was so good at using his troops. He won a complete victory with just a few moves! People's hearts...are hard to predict! And hard to control. But with Jiang Fan, they can only be played around by him!
After Jiang Fan recaptured Jiangyue City, the people of Jiangyue City were overjoyed and celebrated spontaneously. During the period of occupation by the Dashi Army.
They all lived in fear, but fortunately, Guan Yizhi had a strict control over the Dashi Army and did not cause harm to the people. Even if there were, it was only on a small scale.
The entire Jiangyue City was basically undamaged, and although the people were in fear, they did not suffer any substantial harm.
Jiang Fan couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Guan Yizhi. It would be a pity to kill such a general.
Although the other party was defeated by him, his methods of commanding the army and his practice of not harming the civilians were worthy of Jiang Fan's respect.
If it were any other general, I'm afraid he would do something that would harm the people.
For example, of the two Acropolis, the one where Duanmu Xiu was located was okay, but the commander of the other Acropolis did many things that harmed the people.
Fortunately, the damage was not too serious. Jiang Fan stayed in Jiangyue City for a few days and restored the administrative capacity of Jiangyue City in a short period of time.
During this time, he and Chu Yan'er accompanied the two little ones, and Zhong Ling and Li Changle followed them. The Chu brothers went to inspect the training results of Lianyun Eighteen Villages.
There is also the current situation of the Huaining Army. The capital city soon received the news that Jiang Fan had defeated Guan Yizhi and captured more than 270,000 enemy troops.
The entire capital, or the whole world, was shaken. The people were glad that Dayan had a god-of-war figure like Jiang Fan. He was almost invincible!
At the same time, after hearing the news, the Marquis of Zhenxi, who had already sent troops to Fangyuan City, chose to stop advancing.
He originally thought that Guan Yizhi should be able to hold out for a few more days, and when the Dashi Army arrived, he might be able to turn the tables. But now it seems that he took it for granted.
He looked at the detailed description of the entire battle situation in the intelligence, and shock and admiration, as well as a hint of fear, emerged in his eyes.
He didn't know whether he would be able to fight against the King of Qin if he were in Guan Yizhi's position, or whether he would be defeated as miserably as Guan Yizhi.
The Marquis of Zhenxi did not rush to withdraw his troops, but instead stationed his army in Fangyuan City. Not far from them was Weizhou Pass. Further west was the Liaoxia Kingdom.
Although there were 5,000 soldiers from Dayan stationed in Weizhou Guanzhong, for him, these 5,000 soldiers were nothing to be afraid of.
He didn't even think about taking over Weizhou Pass. He didn't want to waste his energy on the road and just wanted to provide support as soon as possible.
But now, he no longer needs support, but he has no plans to capture other cities. The Fangyuan City in front of him was captured by him only because the general defending the city offered it.
Otherwise, he might have retreated to the border of the Dashi Dynasty.
