The col where Haiyang County Governor Zhen Feng was hiding was backed by a slippery steep slope, and this side had already been climbed up by the guards to block the retreat. At the foot of the steep slope, on the inside of the col, there were a few simple thatched huts, surrounded by a threshing floor, surrounded by chest-high rudimentary stone walls, and a settlement of about five or six families.

The villagers did not know where they had fled, and there were more than a dozen corpses scattered inside and outside the stone walls, the blood coagulated into a deep purple color, and their bodies were full of arrows like hedgehogs. The simple wooden door of the courtyard has long been knocked to the side, Zhang Jiheng had tried to forcibly capture this courtyard before, until he received Lin Lian's order, and then he surrounded Zhen Feng and the guards inside.

About 100 Goryeo soldiers wearing vermilion armor retreated to the threshing floor to form a semi-circle formation, many of them were injured or disabled, and they supported each other to stand, although they were in a desperate situation, they did not mean to give up resistance; I didn't see Zhen Feng and other Goryeo generals, so they must be hiding in a thatched house.

The thatched house can't stop the long arrows from firing angrily, let alone the fire attack, it is easy to take down this courtyard, but it is better for Zhen Feng to be captured alive.

"You let people shout, you want Zhen Feng to come out to see me, even if he doesn't want to live, he has to think and consider for his subordinates!" Lin Jian instructed Zhang Jiheng.

Zhang Jiheng sent people to the front to shout surrender, and Lin Jian and Zhao Hu watched the movement in the courtyard in front of the formation, waiting patiently.

After a long time, someone from the thatched hut came out and talked to the guards on the threshing floor, but they were so far away that they could not hear what they were saying. Immediately afterwards, seeing that some guards in the threshing floor began to drop their weapons, Lin Jian breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhen Feng is only useful if he is alive, and the Goryeo army collapsed, but after all, there were only a few people killed on the battlefield at night, and more people fled at night. These rebellious soldiers were defeated, taking advantage of the terrain to resist stubbornly, and they also hoped that reinforcements would come from Goryeo, and refused to surrender easily.

The terrain of Sunrise Mountain is complex, with layers of mountains and mountains, and it is difficult to exterminate the stragglers who fled into Sunrise Mountain one by one in a short period of time; The Huaidong Army and the Danluo Wang Army also had to add many unnecessary casualties.

Lin Jian is not a person who is easy to kill, and besides, Danluo and Dongzhou are short of manpower, and prisoners of war are much more valuable than cold corpses and heads.

The surrender of Zhen Feng and other high-ranking Goryeo generals will greatly reduce the will of the other stragglers to resist.

There were also brave men among the Goryeo guards, who were unwilling to abandon their weapons and surrender, brandishing their swords and wailing loudly, unable to face such a fiasco; He subdued his companions on the left and right, took off his armor and weapons, and just knelt on the ground, pounding the ground angrily and sadly.

At this time, the door of the thatched hut directly south of the threshing floor opened, and the tall Zhen Feng knelt in front of the threshing floor, his body was half-hidden in the shadows, he moved slowly to untie the saber first, and then untie the armor, and took a few people who took off their clothes and armor and only wore white jackets from the thatched hut, walked to the door of the stone wall, bowed down for a long time, and said in a hoarse voice: "Zhen Feng, the general of the defeated army of Haiyang County, Goryeo, visited the envoy ...... "It is better to surrender to the Huaidong army than to surrender to the army of the king of Danluo, and then in front of Lin Bin, Zhen Feng was also convinced.

After trapping Zhen Feng in Seogwipo City for more than two months, Lin Jian already had his detailed information in his hands, but it was the first time he had seen him.

Zhen Feng was born in the Zhen clan of Haiyang County, and was a Goryeo general, taking off his armor, he looked like a scribe, with a thin face, high cheekbones, slender eyes, and a man in his early fifties, with a long beard under his chin and two sideburns that had been dyed frost white.

At this time, Zhen Feng was haggard and tired, and the bags under his eyes were dark and swollen: he obviously had superior troops, and he claimed to be a famous general in Goryeo, but he was crushed by his opponent, and the blow he suffered in his heart was extra heavy.

"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and Governor Zhen should not mind," Lin Jian said comfortingly, "I also ask Governor Zhen to send someone to urge all troops to abandon their weapons and surrender, so that the two sides will have fewer casualties!" ”

"Obey the orders of the envoys!" Zhen Feng ordered several Goryeo generals who would follow him to surrender.

With the fall of Seogwipo City, they have completely lost the opportunity to turn their back, and the remnants of the army will be defeated on Danla Island, unable to form effective resistance, and continuing to resist stubbornly will only increase casualties. Zhen Feng asked several Goryeo generals around him to follow the cavalry of the Huaidong Army around to announce the news that he had surrendered.

The surrender of Zhen Feng and other Goryeo generals brought great convenience to the next closing sweeping work. Except for a small number of recalcitrant rebels who refused to surrender and moved deeper into Sunrise Mountain, most of the stragglers chose to walk out of Sunrise Mountain and abandon their weapons and surrender after hearing the news of the surrender of the main general.

Zhen Feng's willingness to cooperate greatly reduced the trouble and casualties of the follow-up battle, and Lin Jian would naturally give him the respect he deserved. In addition to removing the armor, Lin Jian asked Zhen Feng to be with his guards, and they were all taken to the White Bird Camp to be temporarily placed under house arrest.

In the afternoon, Lin Jian inspected the battlefield on the eastern side of the Gyenowon, and returned to Seogwipo Fortress at dusk.

The Danluo Islanders, who had been evacuated to the east or south, could not wait to return home after hearing the news of the great victory in Xinoyuan. Seeing Lin Tie hugging the cavalry clan past, they all cheered loudly. What's more, kneeling on the side of the road, with tears in his eyes, kowtowed to thank Lin Jian for helping them take home to the garden.

The generals of the Huaidong Army were still sweeping the battlefield, escorting prisoners of war back and forth.

Some of the soldiers, with wounds on their bodies, refused to go down to the battlefield to recuperate. Only by shuttling on the battlefield can you better enjoy the glory and satisfaction brought by the big victory. Seeing Lin Tie surrounded by the cavalry, passing through the battlefield and returning to Seogwipo City, the generals of the Huaidong Army were even more emotional and shouted salutes.

By this time, Seogwipo City had been completely restored, but in the setting sun, the ruined city wall had a strange majestic beauty.

Li Jian, the lord of Danluo, brought hundreds of officials to the east bank of the Bailuo River to welcome Lin Tie into the city, and the roads were full of jubilant soldiers and civilians.

"The lord of the country, this is too polite!" Seeing that the lord of Danluo came to the Bailuo River to greet him, Lin Jian also hurriedly dismounted, enthusiastically held his arm, and walked into Seogwipo City.

Knowing that the lord of Danluo vacated the palace as his trip on Danluo Island, Lin Jian resolutely declined: "The lord of the country has good intentions, and the envoy understands it, but the etiquette system of the country cannot be lightly wasted. ”

"The envoy has the grace of re-creation for Danluo, not the meaning of the lonely family, but the officials and people of Danluo, who are afraid that the respect for the envoy is not enough," Li Jian said earnestly, "Today is the great celebration of the country, and the lonely family discussed with the ministers and decided to set up today as the national grace day, and the eternal heir commemorate, what do the envoys think?" ”

"Danluo is the suzerain, I am ordered by the imperial court, and it is my duty to lead the army to help Danluo expel the invasion, and I really dare not be greedy for merit," Lin Jian said, "The founding of the country is very good, and it can inspire the people." ”

The Goryeo people who were willing to surrender basically walked out of Sunrise Mountain after dusk to disarm and surrender. The soldiers of the Huaidong Army also returned to the two camps of Bainiao and Heiyan Mountain one after another to repair. Nearly 9,000 prisoners of war were also held in these two camps.

There were also some Goryeo generals who would rather die than surrender, and moved deeper into the Sunrise Mountain, and the clean-up work was carried out by the army of the Danluo King led by Li Ji, the son of the prince.

The royal city has just been restored, all industries are waiting to be developed, and the palace is also mixed. Lin Jian discussed some state affairs with the lord of Danluo, and then returned to the post house to rest.

The city defense of Seogwipo has been completely handed over to the Danluo royal army. At this time, it was not certain that all the rebellious soldiers would be cleared out of the city, but around the post house where Lin Tie was used as a temporary rear, there were still cavalry divisions and cavalry responsible for guarding.

The 2nd Water Battalion of Jinghai also had some warships moved from Jeju Port to the North Beach of Seogwipo Fortress to take on the defense of the sea frontier on the periphery of Seogwipo.

Back at the post house, Zhao Hu reported the casualties of the Huaidong Army and the Danluo Alliance Army to Lin Tie in detail.

In addition to the interception battle in the early stage and the capture of the South Gate in the later stage, and the battle with the remnants of Goryeo in Seogwipo City, although the Danluo army did not undertake the main combat mission, there were still nearly 1,000 casualties.

However, only after experiencing a brutal war will the Danluo royal army truly have combat effectiveness, and at this time take on the heavy task of suppressing the remnants of Goryeo.

The casualties of the Huaidong Army also exceeded 1,000. Mainly in the counterattack war, in order to drag the left flank of the Goryeo soldiers and horses into the battlefield, the casualties were heavy. By the time the armies were dispatched and cooperated with the armies to defeat the left flank of the Koreans, and drive the rout soldiers to disperse the right flank, the casualties were quite limited. In the fierce battle last night, there were almost more than 500 wounded, but more than half of them were injured in the foot and fall; There are almost hundreds of war horses that run and break their legs.

In comparison, there were 9,000 Goryeo people who abandoned their weapons and surrendered, died in battle or trampled on each other, about 3,000 people, minus those who escaped from the sea boats, and there were almost more than 2,000 Goryeo generals on the island. Some of them ran too fast last night and didn't have time to rush to the area east of Keinohara to surrender today, while others fled into the Sunrise Mountain, ready to resist to the end.

"The Danluo Wang's army also suffered heavy casualties, and he had to bear the garrison of the royal city, and he had to send out to suppress the remnants, and he had to pacify the people, and the troops were very limited," Lin Jian instructed Zhao Yu, "You draw two battalions tomorrow and cooperate with the Danluo Wang's army to enter the Sunrise Army to suppress the bandits." Don't leave any hidden dangers behind us when we leave Dan Lo Island. ”

"I'll make arrangements right away." Zhao Hu said, talked about some other things, and then withdrew first.

"Qin Zitan is a fast runner, he belongs to a rabbit?" Lin Jian already knew about Nahe Azig and Qin Zitan's visit to Danluo Island at this time, Zhen Feng did not reveal more information, but it was enough to judge that Donghu and the luxury family had secretly colluded together, Lin Jian sighed with emotion, "Meixi Lake, I caught Du Rong and let Qin Zitan escape; On Changshan Island, Qin Zitan broke his arm, but the person still fled. I didn't expect him to run faster this time! ”

"What's the use of running fast?" Song Jiayan smiled and said, "Running fast is also for you to walk, I think he must be more willing to drive you around!" What are you going to do with Zhen Feng, shouldn't you just use him to recruit the rout, right? ”

"I've asked people to spread the news to Dongzhou, and invited Chi Zhou and Saga Lai Yuan to discuss here," Lin Jian said, "How to deal with Zhen Feng, it's better to wait for Chi Zhou, Saga Lai Yuan and others to come over and discuss ......."
