How could those scouts of the Zhao Army outrun Yi Feng? They were quickly caught up and killed by Yi Feng.
At this point, none of the 33 scouts had escaped.
Yi Feng alone killed 25 people, while Zhao San and the other 11 people added together only killed 5 enemies.
As for the remaining three, they didn't die. They were only knocked unconscious by Yi Feng.
After Yi Feng finished killing the escaping scouts, he returned. Zhao San, Xiao Hu, Xiao Shan, and the others were bandaging the wounds of one of the soldiers.
He didn't expect a recruit to be injured, but fortunately, it wasn't serious.
The others were safe and sound.
"Commander Shi!" Xiao Shan, Xiao Hu, and the others all stood up when they saw Yi Feng return. They spoke with respectful expressions, and their gazes towards Yi Feng were filled with admiration.
At this moment, they could be considered to prostrate themselves on the ground in admiration towards Yi Feng.
Especially when he recalled the scene of Yi Feng slaughtering in all directions just now, it was simply too terrifying.
Fortunately, Yi Feng was their chief. Otherwise, he would have become their nightmare.
Even the way Zhao San, this veteran, looked at Yi Feng changed.
Of course, what they admired even more was Yi Feng's methods. Until now, they still didn't understand how Yi Feng discovered these spies.
This made Yi Feng even more mysterious and unfathomable in their hearts.
Only the mystery of the unknown would make people respect it.
"Yes!" Yi Feng nodded and replied.
"Clean up the battlefield and bring these three back.”Yi Feng then pointed at the three spies on the ground and ordered Xiao Shan and Xiao Hu.
The three people he was referring to were naturally the spies that Yi Feng had knocked out. He wanted to bring them back to Wang Li and see if he could get some useful information from them.
Furthermore, Yi Feng knew from their conversation that these three people shouldn't be ordinary soldiers.
"Yes, Commander Shi!" Xiao Shan, Xiao Hu, and the others bowed and cupped their fists. Then, they began to clean up.
Xiao Shan, Xiao Hu, and the others cut off the left ears of the Zhao spies as evidence of killing the enemy.
In ancient times, military achievements were calculated by heads, so it was common for soldiers to kill on the battlefield with several enemy heads hanging on their waists.
However, because it was inconvenient to fight with a human head, they changed to taking the enemy's left ear as evidence to calculate their battle achievements.
"Captain Shen, this is yours."
Very quickly, Xiao Hu, Xiao Shan and the rest cut off the left ears of the corpses of the Zhao Army scouts. They put together the ears of the 25 scouts that Yi Feng had killed and handed them to Yi Feng. Each and every one of them looked at Yi Feng with envy.
The military laws of the Qin country were very strict. Basically, no one dared to snatch credit or falsely report credit. Otherwise, once they were discovered, they would be punished.
If a member of the same team knew about the situation and did not report it, the entire team would be punished.
On the contrary, if someone reported him, not only would he not be punished, but he would also be rewarded. Therefore, very few people would falsely claim military merits. The risk was too great.
Moreover, these military merits were all Yi Feng's, so no one dared to snatch them.
The remaining five were split between Zhao San, Xiao Shan, and Xiao Hu.
Zhao San got two each, Xiao Shan and Xiao Hu got one each, and the remaining one was given to the other recruits. They killed it together.
"Now that we're at the front line, there will be many opportunities to kill enemies on the battlefield in the future.”
Yi Feng took the bag of ears and said with a faint smile, as a way to comfort those few recruits who didn't manage to get a kill.
"That's right. Are you afraid that you won't have a chance to kill the enemy if you follow the commander?”
Xiao Shan and Xiao Hu also said with a smile.
The two of them also received a battle merit. Although it wasn't much, they were satisfied. After all, they were still new recruits.
Moreover, following Yi Feng, he was not afraid of not having a chance to make contributions in the future.
Zhao San, who was at the side, also looked at Yi Feng with envy. As a veteran, he knew how difficult it was to kill enemies and make contributions on the battlefield. However, Yi Feng, this recruit, easily killed 25 enemy soldiers and even captured three enemy soldiers.
This was a huge contribution that even he envied. Even he had not killed so many enemies in one go on the battlefield.
He knew that after Yi Feng returned this time, he would definitely obtain a generous reward.
He also knew that this young man in front of him would definitely not be an ordinary person in the future. Perhaps he would surpass him very soon.
However, if Yi Feng made a contribution, he, a hundred generals, would also benefit from it. Perhaps he could be promoted to another rank of nobility with Yi Feng's help.
He had stayed in this title for too long, and many people like him had not been able to advance even after they died in battle or retired.
The Qin country's military merit system was very attractive. Ordinary soldiers only needed to kill one enemy soldier to be promoted by one rank. The more enemies they killed, the higher the rank.
However, as a general in the army, the higher one went, the harder it was to advance.
Looking at the history of the Qin country, how many people were able to rise to the highest rank of nobility based on their military achievements?
This was because after becoming a general, their promotion was not only based on the number of heads they killed, but also on the total number of heads of the soldiers under their command, as well as the casualties.
For example, according to the military law of the Qin country, if one person died in battle, the four people in the same team would be guilty. If each person could kill an enemy soldier, they would be exempted from punishment.
In other words, he had to first offset the casualties before he could count the battle points.
Moreover, if ordinary soldiers wanted to advance, they had to kill armored warriors, which were basically the elites of the army. Killing ordinary enemy soldiers would not allow them to advance.
This was also the reason why it was extremely difficult for the soldiers of the State of Qin to advance by one level.
Otherwise, if it was really that easy to be promoted by killing an enemy, most people could easily be promoted to a noble rank.
"Let's go back!"“
After Yi Feng saw Xiao Shan and the others tie the hands of the three Zhao State spies that he had knocked out with vines and carry them on their shoulders, he spoke indifferently and then began to walk back.
When he returned, Yi Feng still didn't let his guard down, constantly listening to the movements within a hundred meter radius of him.
"Yi Feng, how did you discover where the enemy spies were?”
On the way, Zhao San couldn't help but ask Yi Feng curiously.
"I don't know either. I just saw that the terrain was suitable for spies to hide, so I brought you guys around to take a look. I didn't expect that there would really be enemy spies.”
Yi Feng smiled faintly and said half-truthfully.
Zhao San looked at Yi Feng suspiciously, also doubting him.
However, other than this explanation, he couldn't think of any other reason. Moreover, Yi Feng's explanation seemed to be reasonable and there was no fault to be found.
"Then why did you suddenly lie on the ground for so long?”Xiao Shan couldn't help but ask. He couldn't figure it out either.
"I was observing to see if there was any movement. In the end, I was not sure, so I rushed out alone. I wanted to see if there were really enemy spies there. I didn't expect to really lure them out.”
Yi Feng continued to speak half-truths, but he couldn't find any reason to be picky.
Because Yi Feng felt that his super hearing was his trump card, so he naturally wouldn't tell anyone.
"General, a group of scouts has returned with three captured scouts.”
Wang Ben, who was resting with his army, suddenly heard a soldier reporting to him.
