The current Yanlong Legion, under the leadership of Bettina and Elena, is slowly following the large army of Lieutenant General Luo Ning. They were waiting, waiting for Li Yi's next instructions for them.

Unconsciously, these two women, who were obviously the supreme commanders of the Yanlong Legion, were accustomed to obeying Li Yi's arrangements in many major matters.

Although Li Yi always emphasized that he was just a martial artist, he was not very good at marching and fighting. But I don't know why, in almost every big victory of the Yanlong Legion now, Li Yi's shadow can be seen in it. It can even be said that if it weren't for Li Yi's existence, the Yanlong Legion might not have reaped such a great victory.

And just when Bettina and Elena followed Lieutenant General Luo Ning's troops in the direction of the Seine City according to their own arrangements, Li Yi had already begun the work of collecting the troops of the Seine King City.

After seeing that the south gate of the Seine Royal City could no longer be kept, the supreme commander of the Seine Royal City decisively ordered the surrender, and as a result, Li Yi actually took only one day to easily seize control of the Seine Royal City.

After the defeat, the army of the Tianlan Empire was like a group of eggplants after frost, and there was no trace of the arrogant look of the past on their faces, and now, like other defeated armies, were waiting for the verdict of the victor in fear.

After collecting all the weapons of the Tianlan Empire's surrendered troops, Li Yi finally had a chance to review his results.

After a surprise attack, Li Yi could almost be said to have captured the Seine King City without blood.

The 150,000 troops of the Tianlan Empire stationed in the Seine King City only struggled for half a day after being attacked before they surrendered. As a result, Li Yi finally learned that the troops of the Yanlong Legion had only lost more than 10,000 troops in this sneak attack.

And the infantry accounted for a large proportion of them, and the cavalry troops led by Li Yi before did not suffer much losses in the sneak attack.

The unit that gave the most credit in the war turned out to be the one with the fewest losses.

Standing on the school grounds of the Seine Royal City, Li Yi looked at the defeated soldiers of the Tianlan Empire, which numbered as many as 50,000 on the field, with an expressionless face. Li Yi's thoughts couldn't help but return to the scene when he first conquered the Seine City twenty years ago.

That time Li Yi also became the final victor, but the price of that victory was too great, not only Alice died in the Seine Royal City, but even some of the good feelings towards human beings that had just ignited in his heart were also dissipated because of that incident.

It's just that this time, Li Yi, as an officer of the Tianlan Empire, examined the defeated army of the Say Empire.

Now, as the head of the Yanlong Legion, Li Yi is looking at the defeated troops of the Tianlan Empire.

This kind of identity change is really ridiculous.

Imagine how many people on this continent can have a situation like Li Yi.

It's just that not long after Li Yi looked at these defeated troops of the Tianlan Empire, he suddenly felt a little stunned in his heart.

Twenty years ago, when Li Yi was still the head of a small cavalry regiment in the Tianlan Empire, the troops of the Tianlan Empire at that time, let alone surrendered, even retreat rarely appeared.

Only this time, Li Yi found that the troops of the Tianlan Empire in front of him were fighting with the same heroic spirit, but this army lacked a proper temperament.

But after seeing this, Li Yi couldn't see what they were missing.

Looking at the dejected troops of the Tianlan Empire on the field, Li Yi sighed with interest, not at all the joy after the victory, and then Li Yi waved his hand casually, and then said lightly: "Disperse." ”

Hearing such a strange order from Li Yi, Meier, who was happily examining the defeated soldiers of the Tianlan Empire, couldn't help but be stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then Mel asked suspiciously: "Commander, what did you say?" Scattered? Where are these people scattered, should they be scattered to all corners of the city, and then fight against us again? ”

Mel was in a very good mood at this time when he saw that his troops had gained control of the Seine King City after the battle, so when he spoke to Li Yi, his tone was much more casual.

But after hearing Mel's joke, Li Yi finally realized a problem. This time it was indeed too smooth, who would have thought that when there were still more than 50,000 troops of the Tianlan Empire in the Seine Royal City, he had already obtained control of the Seine Royal City.

Now seeing the large number of captives of the Tianlan Empire, Li Yi didn't know what to do with them for a while.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Yi couldn't help but turn around, and after seeing George, Li Yi opened his mouth and asked, "George, what do you think we should do with these prisoners?" ”

The reason why Li Yi asked George this question was because George had been serving in the Tianlan Empire all these years, and perhaps he would have the best arrangement to dispose of these prisoners of war.

But after hearing Li Yi's question, George also said with a wry smile: "Commander, I can't help you solve this problem." Now our situation is really embarrassing, we still have the troops of the Tianlan Empire in the rear, and there is also a Tianlan army with a number of up to 400,000 in front. Although they are defeated, they are not something we can eat in one bite. Traditionally, prisoners of war were either exiled or confiscated, and if they were to be bloody, they could all be considered beheaded. But the regiment commander, the number of prisoners of war this time is too much, if we really kill so many prisoners of war, then maybe our own people will not be able to stand it. ”

Seeing George's embarrassed expression, Li Yi finally realized the thorniness of this problem.

Yes, now that control of the Seine Castle has been obtained. But after all, they are basically occupying a lonely city now, and they are the territory and army of the Tianlan Empire before and after, Li Yi really can't think of a good way to deal with these prisoners of war.

But just when Li Yi and George were both in great difficulty, among the prisoners of war, a person who looked like an officer suddenly walked out, ignoring the obstruction of the Yanlong Legion guarding him, this officer walked straight in the direction of Li Yi.

Li Yi's current strength is so strong, when he felt that someone was staring at him all the time, Li Yi immediately followed this feeling.

When he saw the officer of the Tianlan Empire, this officer also smiled at Li Yi at the same time. After that, this officer of the Tianlan Empire continued to walk straight towards Li Yi so straight, and the soldiers of the Yanlong Legion seemed to be blocked, but they were stopped by Li Yi.

When the other party walked in front of him, Li Yi asked with a smile: "I don't know what Your Excellency is going to do, do you have something important to tell me?" ”

This officer is naturally the supreme commander of the Tianlan Empire stationed in the Seine Royal City. Although the city of Seine was destroyed, looking at him now, he didn't seem to feel particularly depressed because of it.

He looked at Li Yi with a smile, there was no sign of a prisoner of war, and finally the officer politely gave Li Yi a military salute, and then said solemnly: "Bernie, the commander of the Southern Army of the Tianlan Empire, has seen General Li Yi. ”

Bernie's behavior was very strange, because before he spoke to Li Yi, he did the military salute of the army of the Tianlan Empire, and from the tone of his voice, it could be seen that he introduced himself as if he was introducing himself to his superiors.

After seeing Bernie's strange behavior, although Li Yi was very curious in his heart, he still held back his curiosity and said with a smile: "Hello, Master Bernie, I don't know what Your Excellency has to teach here. ”

"Hehe, the general of the defeated army, why should you be brave, General Li Yi should not use the word "teaching" to humiliate me. Your Excellency Li Yi, as far as I know, many years ago, Your Excellency was also a soldier of my Tianlan Empire. It was only later that he left the Tianlan Empire because of some misunderstandings. Although Bernie is now in the hands of Li Yi, his life and death depend on Li Yi's decision at any time. But when he was talking to Li Yi, he didn't plead with himself at all, and even talked about Li Yi's past at once.

Li Yi didn't feel that he couldn't talk about his past identity, so Li Yi continued to smile and said: "Exactly, twenty years ago, I was also a soldier of the Tianlan Empire. Coincidentally, my immediate boss was Lieutenant General Luo Ning, the Tianlan commander of the Yanyan Dragon Legion this time. I don't know what your intentions are when you talk about this. ”

"Hehe, it's okay, you still remember that General Luo Ning is your old boss. Your Excellency Li Yi, I won't go around the bend with you, in today's battle, I am convinced. So I don't have any hope of turning the tables, but I suddenly have a proposal, and I don't know if General Li Yi is interested in listening to it. Bernie looked straight at Li Yi and said very seriously.

Seeing the other party's appearance, Li Yi asked suspiciously, "Oh? I don't know if you have any suggestions, so you may wish to speak up and listen to them. ”

"He decided to lead all the men and horses of the Tianlan Empire in the current Senna King City to completely surrender to the Yanlong Legion, I wonder if General Li Yi can be interested in being recruited?" Staring at Li Yi intently, Bernie said word by word.

Hearing Bernie's words, Li Yi was stunned for a moment, and then said to Bernie with a smile: "Hehe, I think Your Excellency, you still don't know much about your identity now." You and your subordinates are now my prisoners, and your surrender is a fact, do you think this can still be a bargaining chip for you to negotiate with me? ”

The meaning of Li Yi's words is very clear, Bernie can continue to pretend to be a high profile at this time, but don't forget that Li Yi treats him politely because he doesn't want to do things too much, but he must not think that in this situation, he is still qualified to negotiate with Li Yi.

But after listening to Li Yi's words, the smile on Bernie's face still did not diminish, and it seemed that he did not feel any embarrassment for the ridicule in Li Yi's words. On the contrary, when he looked at Li Yi, his eyes began to become more and more determined.

After Li Yi's words were finished, Bernie continued to say politely: "General Li Yi, I think you have misunderstood what I mean, what I said about surrender, my complete surrender, and the current capture by you is fundamentally different from the current kind of capture by you. That is to say, if you agree to incorporate us, the more than 50,000 soldiers of the Tianlan Empire in the Senna King City will immediately transform into the men and horses of your Yanlong Legion, and we can immediately pick up the weapons in our hands and turn the direction of the attack to the Tianlan Empire. ”

When Bernie's words came out, Li Yi couldn't help but be surprised, and even Mel and Yadi on the side were very shocked.

You know, before that, they were worried about what to do with these prisoners of war. In their eyes, these prisoners of war were a big problem at all, and it was better to keep them, not only to send someone to watch over them, but also to prevent them from causing any chaos in the city. Let them go, this is simply impossible, can it be that these 50,000 horses and horses can return to the Tianlan Empire unharmed, and then wait for the Tianlan Empire to re-equip them with weapons, so that they can turn their heads and continue to fight against the Yanlong Legion?

In the same way, it is no longer possible to use the same methods as in the province of Bada to bloody kill all the 50,000 prisoners of war. Because in this way, not only the soldiers of the Yanlong Legion can't accept it, maybe even these people in the city can't face this cruel reality.

It is because of such timidity that Li Yi and the others are helpless in the face of these prisoners of war.

But now, when Li Yi and the others were thinking hard about how to deal with this batch of prisoners of war, Bernie, the leader of the prisoners of war, offered Li Yi and them a seemingly acceptable condition at this time.

Just thinking about it, his statement is not so secure.

Because he verbally said that he could turn back against the water in the current situation and join the Yanlong Legion. But if there is no evidence, is it because of his words, Li Yi wants to believe that these people who were still thinking about how to destroy the Yanlong Legion a day ago can willingly betray their motherland and serve the enemy one day later?

Besides, 50,000 horses is not a small number. If it were not for the means of sneak attack, the two sides would fight head-on on the battlefield, even if the opponent's combat effectiveness was extremely low, it would be impossible to annihilate them all without spending a whole day.

If Li Yi now believes this Bernie's words, equips the army of the Tianlan Empire that has just surrendered with weapons, and assigns them defensive or offensive tasks, who can guarantee that after they are out of the custody of Li Yi's troops, they will not immediately face the Yanlong Legion.

So while Bernie's offer was tempting, it seemed like his idea was the best solution to the problem in the current circumstances. But even so, after Bernie finished speaking, none of the high-level leaders of the Yanlong Legion on the field spoke.

After being silent for a long time, Li Yi was the first to speak, breaking the deadlock on the field.

Looking straight at Bernie, Li Yi asked expressionlessly: "Your Excellency Bernie, please forgive me for my rude question, you keep saying that you will lead your men and horses to completely surrender to our Yanlong Legion, but what is your reason, is it just based on your words, I believe in you and give your men and horses freedom?" You know, you are a general who has just surrendered, and in my eyes, your loyalty is not worthy of my trust. ”

Li Yi's words can be said to hit the nail on the head, first Li Yi bluntly expressed his distrust, and then also named Bernie as a demoted general, the defect of insufficient loyalty.

Li Yi's meaning is also very clear, he just needs a reason, a reason that can make Li Yi accept them. After all, if the current situation develops, even if Bernie doesn't take the initiative to express his idea of completely surrendering, Li Yi will send people to do ideological work for this Tianlan Empire's troops in the days to come. An army of 50,000 cannot be monolithic, if they can be given a chance to live, and they can also live with dignity, Li Yi expects that there will be many people in this army who can accept to fight for the Yanlong Legion.
