As for this half hour, Zhao Cheng did not do anything, but actually did a lot of things.

He first asked his Taiping camp reservists to collect Cao Jun's armor and firearms and arm himself.

Although the 20,000 reservists are now very tired, they still have the strength to walk and shoot, but their condition is very poor.

But after just winning a battle, it severely stimulated the spirits of these people.

In addition to the 100,000 people, Zhao Cheng captured 20,000, and the rest were completely routed.

There were only 20,000 people. If Cao Zheng did not surrender, Zhao Cheng would definitely kill them all on the spot to prevent accidents. But now, it was handed over to Cao Zheng to take command again and gather the broken troops so that he could use Sun Yuantai's strength later.

Of course, although Zhao Cheng knew that Cao Zheng could not rebel again now, he still sent a team of 3,000 people and a general named Li Weiyi for supervision.

This man and horse, with Li Weiyi as general and Cao Zheng as deputy general, found a place to set up camp.

"Your Majesty, do you believe in me so much?!"

After hearing Zhao Cheng's order, it was Cao Zheng who was the first to question it.

After all, as a surrender, at this time, Zhao Cheng should normally take him with him as a hostage to control his generals and soldiers.

Among his 100,000-strong army, there are only 20,000 men belonging to the imperial court. The remaining 80,000 are either his private army or men from other forces. They all regard themselves as leaders, not Therefore, it is completely feasible for the imperial court to control the army by holding its leaders hostage.

At this time, if you directly hand over the general power, you will be in danger of being counterattacked.

"I can defeat you once, but I can defeat you twice. The first time I still have you waiting for a way to survive, but the second time it's gone."

"You are a smart man who knows what to do."

As Zhao Chengyan spoke calmly, his clear eyes seemed to be glowing with jade light.

A few years ago, he was still full of demonic power, but now, he has returned to his original nature. His whole person, on weekdays, not only does not give people a violent feeling, but has a kind of gentleness like jade.

But there is no doubt that this is a powerful phenomenon. Just like in various myths and stories, only those little monsters and little demons have their teeth and claws open, and they look very vicious at first sight, but those big monsters and old demons , but instead he looks like a human being, a good person, even a humble gentleman.

Only when it eats people will it instantly change its original image.

"As long as you can make meritorious deeds, I will not treat you badly. Although it is impossible to be crowned king, with your wisdom, you may not be unable to become the central leader. Under one person, above tens of thousands of people, all twelve states in the world will be affected by this. You speak and move.”

Zhao Cheng is skilled in painting cakes.

He naturally recognized Cao Zheng's talent.

And he can tolerate even Wu Qi, so he can naturally tolerate Cao Zheng.

Although Cao Zheng is a person who is unruly and has a disobedient heart, as long as you don't give the other party a chance, the other party can also be a loyal and loyal minister.

If the master is strong, the ministers will naturally be loyal.

If the master is weak, those who were originally loyal may become disloyal.

There is no such thing as absolute loyalty in this world.

"My lord, take the order!"

After hearing this, Cao Zheng knelt down again.

When Da Cang was still the late emperor, he was already very skilled at doing this kind of thing, but he didn't expect that he would need to use it again now.

After arranging all this, Zhao Cheng took the Taiping battalion sergeants who had been preparing for half an hour and rushed towards the pass out of the Southern Wilderness...

From the time he came out of Lianshan to now, the entire time has only been one hour, that is, two hours.

Although the rocket launcher exploded and caused a huge noise, at least there was a little bright light at the sky barrier, so it was impossible to hear the sound. And when seeing the bright light, it would be impossible for a normal person to directly think that a fight was going on here.

As for the people Cao Zheng sent to inform Sun Yuantai, even if they worked hard, it would take at least more than an hour.

It can be said that when Zhao Chenggang set out, Sun Yuantai probably didn't know the news yet, and it would take two hours for the other party to organize their troops in the middle of the night, send out troops, coordinate their troops, and send out scouts to investigate the situation.

And even if the other party leaves the city, they will definitely rush directly to Cao Zheng, and from this place, the route to the pass and to Tianjueguan is not the only one.

By the time Sun Yuantai reacted, it would be too late.

On the other side, things were indeed as Zhao Cheng expected. When Sun Yuantai, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the news, he was horrified but also overjoyed.

He couldn't help but feel lucky that he had prepared something there in advance.

After that, he directly thought of the possibility of annihilating Zhao Cheng's troops there.

If he could annihilate this soldier, he would have won half the battle.

At this moment, like Cao Zheng, he couldn't help but wonder, could this be the destiny of the heaven? !

After all, destiny is real in this world.

Especially when marching and fighting, the party with destiny can always find divine help in many places.

On the contrary, there is no destiny. Earthquakes, heavy rains, floods...we encounter them one after another.

When Huang Tianjun failed to enter the Southern Wilderness, it was also because of the heavy rain during that time.

Thinking of this, Sun Yuantai could no longer sleep, and immediately asked his men to summon the leaders of all parties.

And the integration of his forces during this period has also shown results.

It didn't take even two hours, but only one and a half hours, to gather 300,000 men and horses, planning to leave the city directly to destroy the enemy.

But when the large army pushed towards Cao Zheng in a mighty manner, a few soldiers emerged from the woods in a panic, stopped in front of the army, and shouted that they were Sun Yuantai's men.

Immediately, these people were brought to Sun Yuantai, and Sun Yuantai also recognized them. These people were his special agents specially placed under Cao Zheng.

After several people saw Sun Yuantai, they immediately shouted: "Commander, something bad has happened. Then Cao Zheng has surrendered to the Zhao thief!"

"What?!"

When Sun Yuantai heard this, he swayed and almost fell off his horse.

"Tell me in detail, what exactly happened?!"

Sun Yuantai barely stabilized himself and asked immediately.

"The Zhao thief came out of the mountains, and the divine soldiers descended from the sky, which was unstoppable. Meteors rushed out from the ground and bombarded the army. The entire wilderness was burned, which directly caused the army to collapse. Cao Zheng saw that the situation was not good and he surrendered..."

The few people spoke to each other and quickly described the situation clearly.

Hearing such words, not to mention Sun Yuantai, even the generals and leaders around him couldn't help but have different expressions at this moment.

"not good!"

But at this moment, someone saw wolf smoke floating in the sky in the distance.

"The barrier is under attack!"

"We've fallen into a trap!"

Someone shouted that just when they left the city, Cao Zheng's people sent a second piece of information, saying that the Zhao thieves had begun to retreat into the mountains and asked them to come quickly.

Seeing this, Sun Yuantai did not hesitate and immediately ordered the entire army to change direction.

However, before he had gone very far, he saw another person coming on horseback, and Sun Yuantai immediately felt a bad premonition.

"Commander, something bad happened. The Zhao thief attacked from behind. The Great Yan Ancient Road has been lost..."

After hearing this, Sun Yuantai couldn't stand the excitement anymore. His eyes blurred and he fell off the horse. Immediately, there was chaos on the scene.
