Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 798 Occupy Ding City
Ding City is a small city and cannot be defended at all. Lu Hao can capture this city at any time, and he can also divide his troops to occupy Ding City.

However, now he wants to end the battle as soon as possible, and he does not necessarily want to occupy Ding City, a useless city.

Why give up on Ding City?This is just one of Lu Hao's chess pieces.

"Generals, Zheng Guohua's army is on its way and is still about an hour away from us. We can let the soldiers relax a little, eat something, drink some water..."

Lu Hao once again sent a message from his soul.

Many generals could not help but be surprised and horrified when they received a message from the emperor's soul for the first time.

After all, this kind of soul transmission is not something ordinary people can do.

Time passed quickly, and as time passed, the fog gradually began to dissipate, and the warm sunshine shone on the earth, dyeing the entire hillside red.

An hour later, Zheng Guohua's army marched in with everyone's expectant eyes.

At the same time, more than a dozen waves of scouts came to Ding City and did not find the Chinese Empire's army, but they immediately headed towards Xunyang City.

Lu Hao really couldn't understand the brain circuits of these people. Couldn't he think about whether the army of the Chinese Empire would be ambushing halfway?
Zheng Guohua's army actually marched very fast, but no matter how fast their legs were, they were not as fast as their horses.

Seeing the belated arrival of the army, all the soldiers immediately entered a fighting state.

Under Lu Hao's powerful soul perception, he found that the Zheng army was only about five kilometers in front and behind, which was enough to completely enter the ambush circle.

Zheng Guohua was riding on his horse, looking arrogant, urging the army to advance.

Because the heavy fog is now gradually dissipating, it is a good time to march quickly.

"Generals, all the enemy troops have entered the ambush circle. According to the strategic deployment, give me a hard beating!"

As the army entered Sagapo, Lu Hao immediately issued an order.

"All soldiers, fight this general!"

Xuanyuan Lingyu shouted an order and pulled the trigger.

bang bang bang...

Dense bullets poured down the hillsides on both sides, and countless Zheng soldiers fell to the muzzle of the guns.

The sound of gunfire was the signal for action, and the generals issued attack orders one after another.

Imperial soldiers on both sides pulled the triggers one after another, and the entire valley became a slaughterhouse of death.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack..."

"Defense! Defense..."

Countless deafening roars rang out in the valley.

This Zhengguo army was an elite division, not a mob. Therefore, it did not flee in panic at the first time, but immediately chose to defend.

"Soldiers, fight! Fight hard! Cut off the enemy's retreat!"

At the same time, General Zhou Yuan, who was behind the scenes, pulled the trigger and issued an order loudly.

bang bang bang...

Bullets slanted down like raindrops, and the cross-fire network formed completely submerged the entire valley.

Thousands of Zheng soldiers fell into pools of blood, like ripe wheat being harvested.

General Zheng Guohua found himself surrounded by the Chinese Empire. His mind was buzzing and he was completely confused.

He looked at the hillsides on both sides and saw countless rifles aimed at the valley, spraying out countless tongues of fire. He immediately understood that he had been ambushed by the Chinese Empire.

"Soldiers, hold on to this general! Hold on..."

"The enemy is on the hillside, the shield bearers are defending and covering, kill them! Kill them..."

Following his order, many soldiers rushed to both sides of the valley, trying to rush up the gentle slope to fight with the enemy.

bang bang bang...

Many bullets hit the shields, and many soldiers covered their comrades and wanted to rush forward.

Unfortunately, they rushed up from the right, and the imperial soldiers on the left were able to hit him in the back.

If they rush up from the left, the Imperial soldiers on the right can kill them instantly.With this kind of cross-fire network on the left and right sides, no one can rush up to it and can only be reduced to grabbing the dead souls.

"Retreat! Retreat..."

Seeing that he could not rush forward, General Zheng Guohua immediately ordered to retreat.

Unfortunately, the road behind had been completely cut off, and on the congested official road, many soldiers were pushing and jostling together, causing a large area of ​​​​trampling, making it impossible for the army to retreat.

In fact, even if they were able to retreat, they would eventually be completely annihilated by General Zhou Yuan's command.

"Don't shoot, we surrender, we surrender..."

Some people put their weapons on their hands, raised their hands, and shouted loudly.

"Generals, tell your soldiers that those who surrender will not be killed!"

Lu Hao's soul transmitted messages to each general.

"Those who surrender will not be killed! Those who surrender will not be killed..."

All the imperial soldiers shouted in unison, and those soldiers were so frightened that they dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground to surrender.

"No surrender allowed! Anyone who surrenders will be killed without mercy..."

General Zheng Guohua roared angrily, raised his sword, and directly pierced the body of a soldier.

bang bang bang...

The dense bullets were fired at him, instantly turning him into a hornet's nest.

"The general is dead! We surrender! We surrender..."

Countless soldiers shouted, wanting to live.

After all, they were now surrounded and had no way of fighting against the Chinese Empire's rifles.

Everyone is born and raised by their parents, so who doesn’t want to live?Even if you are a prisoner, it is better than turning into a corpse, right?
Therefore, many surviving soldiers of Zheng's army knelt down and surrendered, and the gunfire on both sides gradually stopped.

In this battle, the Chinese Empire completely destroyed Zheng's main elite division, and also killed Zheng's general Zheng Guohua.

If Lu Hao hadn't been kind and ordered to accept the surrender, these Zheng soldiers would have been bloody massacre.

Fortunately, many Zheng soldiers saw the opportunity early. Half of the more than 7 people were killed, and the other half were taken as prisoners, and their lives were saved.

"I am the Yongtai Emperor of the Chinese Empire. If you swear allegiance to me, I will give you a way to survive. If you are stubborn to the end, I will kill you without mercy!"

Lu Hao rose into the air, looked at the densely packed surrender troops below, and said loudly.

"The last general, Fan Zhongzhe, is willing to be loyal to the emperor. He just wants to give him a way to survive!"

One of the lieutenants immediately fell to his knees and shouted.

"We are willing to be loyal to the Emperor. We just ask the Emperor to give us a way to survive!"

The other soldiers fell to their knees one after another,
No one is not afraid of death!

Looking at the densely packed corpses around them, with blood gathering into a stream, these Zheng soldiers wisely chose to surrender.

"From today on, you will be under the command of General Fan Zhongzhe. Anyone who betrays you will be killed without mercy!"

Lu Hao said coldly.

"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty. I will swear to serve Your Majesty to the death!"

General Fan Zhongzhe thanked him loudly.

"General Fan, the first task I give you is to clean the battlefield and then lead the army to occupy Ding City."

Lu Hao ordered loudly.

"The commander's decree!"

General Fan Zhongzhe took the order loudly.

In fact, how could a small city like Ding City need an army of more than 3 to kill it?
This is just because Lu Hao wanted to see if General Fan truly surrendered to the Chinese Empire?
