The Allies were defeated and the Chu army was forced to surrender. The news soon reached Yanqi.

Hearing this, all the generals of the Xuan Army were stunned at first, and then they all showed joy. Ma Lin said: "The battle at Shangguan is finally coming to an end. The defeat of the coalition forces is a complete mess."

"Haha! This war has caused Wu and Chu to lose all their elites, and the country's power has been greatly reduced. From now on, our country, Xuan, will be the most powerful country in the south..."

"Yes, this situation and the king's plan are heartbreaking."

Of course everyone will be happy if the enemy surrenders.

But the civil servant accompanying the army frowned and said: "Commander Yan, although the surrender of the Chu army can end this war, he did not surrender to Qin, but surrendered to us. This is a trouble."

Before Yan Qi could speak, Wan Yong said: "The enemy's surrender is such a good thing, sir, I don't worry too much."

The civil servant shook his head slightly and explained: "Now the Chu army still has 80,000 people. Once they surrender, what will we do with them? We can only imprison and guard them, which will be a waste of food and grass. At the same time, the King of Chu will definitely come to ask for people.

When the time comes, trouble will ensue. If you let them go, they will become Chu's battle-hardened regular army after they return. And after this battle, the relationship between our country and Chu has become a mortal enemy..."

After hearing his explanation, the generals couldn't help but look at each other, and Wan Yong said coldly: "Then kill him!"

"How is it possible?" the civil servant said, "We in the Central Plains never kill prisoners, and the king also pays attention to morality and etiquette. Once he knows about it, he will definitely be furious."

"Then...then what do you think we should do?" Wan Yong said, spreading his hands.

The civil servant mused: "If Hanzhou surrenders to the Qin army, it will be truly perfect."

Yan Qi narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "No matter what, the Chu army is willing to surrender, which is a good thing for us. At the very least, it avoids unnecessary casualties during the defensive battle. Since Hanzhou has chosen our army

, that means he is worried about Su Yi."

Having said this, he added: "Let's accept the surrender first, collect the Chu army's weapons, and then make plans after seizing them."

This was the surrender of the Chu State's regular army, not a rebel army, so Xuan State could not recruit this army.

Next, at Hanzhou's request, Yan Qi led a large number of soldiers and happily accepted the surrender.

Within the mountain pass.

With Han Zhou in front, followed by all the generals behind him, he lifted his robe, knelt down on one knee, and stepped in to salute: "The defeated general Han Zhou, please see General Yan Qi, and please accept your surrender."

As soon as he knelt down, all the Chu army generals behind him also knelt down. The scene was filled with depression. When Han Zhou said his last words, his voice was filled with sadness and helplessness.

Seeing this, Yan Qi quickly helped him up with both hands: "General, please get up."

Han Zhou stood up, with a bitter look on his face, and made his last request: "The general has always asked Yada, and the defeated general has nothing else to ask for. I only hope that the general can treat our Chu army soldiers well."

Yan Qi said seriously: "Please don't worry, General Han!"

"Thank you, General." Han Zhou saluted again.

Yan Qi said again: "But now that I have surrendered, the general's troops, armor and weapons..."

Hanzhou understood what he meant and immediately said: "Understand, understand."

"That's good, that's good." Yan Qi smiled, then stretched out his hand: "General, please."

He was relatively polite to the enemy commander. After accepting the surrender, he immediately ordered the Xuan army to collect all the weapons of the Chu army.

At this time, the Chu army naturally knew that their side had surrendered, so how could they resist? Moreover, for them, this war was absolutely difficult. They were hungry, cold, and had no hope of survival. There was no hope of survival for a long time.

Morale is up.

This surrender ceremony was very simple and the action was very fast. In less than half a day, all 80,000 Chu troops had been detained and made prisoners.

The battle at Shanyuguan was considered over, but without King Xuan's order, Yanqi did not dare to withdraw easily. It still stationed at Shanyuguan and did not take any action against the prisoners of the Chu army.

Just like this, a few days later, Huang Zu also received a reply from King Ling. The letter contained simple words, ordering him and Bu Shuo to withdraw immediately.

Because at this time King Ling knew that the battle to attack Qin had been lost and could no longer be fought. He could retain as much strength as he could.

After receiving this royal order, Huang Zu and Bu Shuo had nothing to hesitate. However, when the troops who were picking up the wounded at the foot of Wu Dishan Mountain sent back a letter saying that they had been waiting for no one for a long time, they ordered the sergeants to go into the mountain and search for them.

The wounded were found to have frozen to death in the mountains.

There were a lot of soldiers in the Spirit Army who suffered from cold injuries. In that harsh environment, without medicinal herbs, they became heavier and heavier, and it was freezing cold. They were unable to march, so it was not surprising that they died on the snow.

of.

However, out of the 300,000 elite members of the Ling Army, more than 100,000 came out, and then began to completely evacuate Shanyuguan.

With this action, it also announced the end of the battle to attack Qin.

At this point, all the Wu army of the ferocious 900,000-strong coalition army was destroyed, only 80,000 Chu army remained and surrendered, and the remaining 100,000 Ling army retreated.

Among them, there were actually not that many soldiers who died in battle. Many died of freezing, starvation, and untreated illnesses.

At the same time, Su Yi had led his army to capture Pingsha, and at the same time received military information that the Chu army had surrendered.

In Pingsha City, the generals of the Qin army gathered together.

After understanding the latest battle situation, Ning Zhan took the lead and said: "The Wu army is destroyed, the Chu army surrenders, and the Ling army retreats. There are no enemy strongholds in our country in Qin. Judging from this, this war is about to end!"

"That's right!" Goldman Sachs continued: "The coalition forces have been completely defeated! When they attacked Qin in April, all the countries gathered an army of 900,000 with overwhelming force, a total of 900,000! No one in the world thinks highly of our Qin country! But

We won this war!"

When all the generals heard this, they were all excited.

Su Yi was also very happy and said with a smile: "Now that the Chu army has surrendered to the Xuan army, let's seize the time and rush to Shanyuguan quickly to end this war as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Nie Xing couldn't help but said: "Commander Su, the Xuan Army still occupies the gate of our country. If we just pass by like this, I don't know if they will return Shanyuguan."

Su Yi glanced at him and muttered for a moment: "Before, King Xuan once announced to the world that he would formally declare war on other countries. In other words, we and Xuan Kingdom are in an alliance. No matter what happens to Yan Qi, he would not dare to use it as the commander-in-chief.

Identity tears apart alliances.”

On the Qin Army's side, we don't know what Xuan Army will do next, but one thing is certain, that is, there will be no explicit conflict with our own side.

In view of the importance of Shanyuguan, Su Yi had to seize the time and march quickly, intending to fight with Yanqi and take Shanyuguan back from its hands.
