Chapter 822 Hostage Tactics

In ancient China, once a general who went out to fight was defeated or was unfortunately captured, many people often chose to die directly for the country.

The reason they made such a choice, apart from the deep penetrations of the bone’s loyalty thought, the biggest reason is to leave a way for their family members who stayed in the country.

When generals go out to fight, their families often stay in the capital, so that they can be well taken care of and protected, and they also have the meaning of acting as a proton.

If they surrender to the enemy on the battlefield, their family members who remain in the country are likely to be implicated.

From being demoted and squeezed out by others everywhere, you can’t hold your head up all your life, and from the worst, the whole family has been ruined.

This is the case in the current Linhai Empire.

After learning that Tiger Xiaotian was killed and the entire 600,000 elite army was destroyed, even if they knew they could not resist the attack of the Condor Army, many tiger generals finally chose to resist to the end.

In addition to the loyalty to Tiger Xiaotian, the biggest reason is that all the family members of the tiger generals live in the Tiger King City.

If they choose to surrender to the Condor Army, then their family members in the Tiger King City are likely to be killed immediately.

So for the safety of their families, they can only choose to fight to the end with the Condor Army.

This is also the main reason why the Condor Army will launch an attack on Tiger King City in the winter.

Because if it was only for the orcs of the three tribes to pay the certificate of voting, Ning Yuanda could wait until the beginning of spring. After all, winter was not a good season for marching and fighting.

It’s just that the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and the Condor Empire has dispatched so many troops. Every time it drags on, their logistical pressure will increase.

The logistical supply of the Condor Empire already had a major problem. Ning Yuan’s forceful launch of a full-scale war against the Linhai Empire this time was already beginning to overdraw the nation’s power of the Condor Empire, so he really couldn’t afford it.

However, some things are not what Ning Yuan wants.

The enemy relied on the forbidden air Realm to defend the city. The road was blocked by heavy snow in winter. Most of the infantry regiments of the Condor Army were in the east of Liupan Mountain. The cavalry sent by Ningyuan did not have the ability to attack the city.

The cavalry can only besieged and blockaded the enemy, but cannot destroy the enemy in the city. Therefore, if the enemy does not surrender, Ning Yuan will not have much to do with them.

Just when Ning Yuan was troubled because all the enemies refused to surrender, Hu Lie brought good news to Ning Yuan.

According to Hu Lie, most of the captured tiger soldiers have already chosen to submit. Only some senior generals in the tiger army would rather die than surrender, but they don’t really regard death as home.

They offered a condition to rescue their family from Tiger King City.

As long as they are successfully reunited with their families, they can serve the Condor Empire.

The news from Hu Lie was a timely rain for Ning Yuan, who was worrying about the war, and it made him feel helpless.

After finding the key to breaking the game, Ning Yuan immediately asked the captive senior tiger generals to be interrogated individually, and from them obtained detailed information about the guards of the Linhai Empire.

At this moment, the messenger for help sent by Ma Wanli rushed over, so Ning Yuan immediately asked Ross Shengguang to lead the 100,000 Flying Legion to rush to the Tarim Basin with a secret list.

After finding out the families of all the tiger guards on the list, Rose Shengguang immediately led the 20,000 silver Pegasus knights to Jiayuguan.

After meeting with the centaur encircling Jiayuguan, they went directly to the city of Jiayuguan, and then in front of the Jiayuguan garrison, all the family members of the tiger garrison stationed in the Hexi Corridor were taken out.

Along the way, the Condor Army not only did not abuse the tiger family members, but also gave them the best care. So at this moment, apart from a look of fear on their faces, their overall mental outlook is pretty good. .

“The defenders on the city wall have heard clearly. The tiger women and children in front of you are all family members of the senior tiger generals stationed in the Hexi Corridor.

You can now report to your immediate boss and tell them to surrender to the Condor Empire immediately and unconditionally, otherwise their family will take the first step. ”

Seeing the densely packed tiger warriors on the city wall, Ross immediately flew over the tiger’s family members, and then began to persuade the defenders at Jiayuguan to surrender.

Although the centaur army that besieged Jiayuguan had wiped out an attacking tiger army before, the guard at Jiayuguan did not join the battle, so when he saw that his wife and children were captured by the Condor Army, There is a high chance of surrendering directly.

As the guard guarding Jiayuguan, Hu Bin has had a bad life recently.

After his best friend led the army and never came back, he knew that his old friend was probably ill-advised.

After losing a lot of troops on both sides of the Hexi Corridor, the tigers in the Hexi Corridor area no longer have the ability to fight out, so they can only rely on the Great Wall and Jiancheng to defend themselves.

These days, the centaur army outside Jiayuguan just wandered around outside without attacking the city, so Hu Bin didn’t go up to the city wall at all. Every day, he stayed in the mansion alone and drank alcohol in an attempt to numb himself with alcohol.

“General, the big thing is not good. The Condor Army has captured the wife and some young Masters, and they are now escorting them outside the city to persuade them to surrender.”

On this day, Hu Bin was drinking himself as usual. The soldiers he had left on the city wall ran into the yard profusely, bringing him a bad news.

Hearing that his own wife and child were caught by the enemy, Hu Bin, who was half drunk and half awake, suddenly woke up. He threw the wine glass on the ground, grabbed the collar of the soldier and confirmed: “You I saw my wife and son outside the city, or did the enemy talk nonsense?”

The soldier ignored Hu Bin’s rude gestures and replied: “General, what I saw with my own eyes, not only your wife and children, but also the families of several other generals.

I took a cursory look, and it seemed that the families of all the generals stationed in the Hexi Corridor were under the city. ”

After listening to the soldier’s answer, Hu Bin immediately fell to the ground, speechless for a long time.

All the family members of their generals stationed abroad live in the Tiger King City, and now those family members have suddenly fallen into the hands of the Condor Army, then there is only one possibility, that is, the Tiger King City has been lost.

Tiger King City is the capital of the Linhai Empire. In the city, there are not only the families of their high-ranking generals, but also the tiger royal family of the tiger clan.

The fall of the Tiger King City marked that the Tiger King family of the Linhai Empire had basically been annihilated. Except for the great prince who was in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the once glorious Tiger King tribe disappeared.

“Hey, daddy can’t protect himself. How can I still have the right to worry about other people’s affairs, nothing more, nothing more, anyway, your Majesty Hu Xiaotian is no longer there. I’ll save my wife and children first, and then find a good place with mountains and rivers. Spend the rest of your life quietly!” Hu Bin laughed at himself secretly.

After taking his attention, he immediately got up from the ground and said to the guards: “Go, let’s go to the Condor Army for a while and see what they are thinking.”
