When Yi Feng brought the soldiers back to the original encampment of the Zhao army, some of the Qin soldiers were sitting on the ground bandaging their wounds, while others were cleaning up the battlefield.
However, all of them had excited expressions on their faces.
Very clearly, each and every one of them had gained quite a bit from this battle.
"General Yi is back!" When those Qin soldiers saw Yi Feng, they all greeted him.
The so-called general was just a title. Strictly speaking, Yi Feng was not a general yet. A real general had to be at least one of the Five Great Doctors or above to be given the title of general.
However, the soldiers in the army would usually address those who had some military status as general to show respect.
Everyone looked at Yi Feng with eyes filled with respect.
Especially when they saw Yi Feng's armor dyed red with blood, his entire body filled with the pungent smell of blood, their hearts were filled with even more admiration.
"Yi Feng, are you alright?" When Wang Li, who was leading the soldiers to clean up the battlefield, saw this, he hurriedly came in front of Yi Feng. He frowned slightly and said with a worried expression, because he saw that Yi Feng's entire body was covered in blood.
"I'm fine!" Yi Feng shook his head and said.
Although Yi Feng would inevitably suffer some injuries during the battle, they were all light injuries. Once the battle was over, his injuries would also recover.
"You've made a great contribution again this time!" Wang Li glanced at General Zhao's head in Yi Feng's hand and lightly hammered Yi Feng's chest with his fist as he faintly smiled.
Wang Li was present in the battle yesterday, and almost half of Wang Ben's 50,000-man vanguard had joined in.
However, Wang Li and the others were awakened by Yi Feng's battle and rushed over.
At that time, Yi Feng was leading his 1,000 men to fight at the front, so he didn't pay attention to Wang Li and the others.
Furthermore, the sky was too dark at that time and the distance was too far. Wang Li did not see Yi Feng and only heard from the soldiers that Wang Li was leading the soldiers to fight in front.
"This is all thanks to everyone!" A rare faint smile appeared on Yi Feng's originally cold face.
"Don't be so humble." Wang Li said with a smile.
Everyone in the entire camp knew that the main credit for this battle was definitely Yi Feng again.
It was Yi Feng who had just discovered the enemy's night attack. At that time, the Zhao army was only 30 meters away from the Qin army's camp. If they really let these Zhao soldiers get close to the Qin army's camp, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Although there were soldiers patrolling outside the Qin camp, the distance was too close. The soldiers in the camp might not be able to react in time. Even if the Zhao army might not be able to succeed in the night attack, the Qin army would definitely suffer many casualties.
Following that, Yi Feng killed the Zhao army that came to attack at night and took the opportunity to lead the soldiers to chase after them.
This gave the other Qin soldiers who came out of the camp a great encouragement. Otherwise, in such a dark sky, without anyone to lead them, and without the temptation of Yi Feng and the others, the Qin soldiers in the camp might not dare to chase after them because they were afraid of an ambush. Then, there would not be the battle that broke through the Zhao army's encampment.
Of course, this courage was also given to each other. If it wasn't because Yi Feng sensed that the Qin army was also chasing after him, he might not have dared to bring those 1,000 soldiers to the Zhao army's encampment.
However, without Yi Feng leading the charge, the Qin army might not be able to break through the Zhao army's encampment so easily.
Furthermore, in this battle, Yi Feng and his 1,000 soldiers killed the most Zhao soldiers.
"The general has arrived and wants to see you.”Wang Li said to Yi Feng.
"The general is here?" Yi Feng was slightly stunned.
Since General Huan He had arrived, then the main force of the Qin State should have arrived as well.
The main force consisted of 250,000 soldiers, and they had brought along a lot of siege weapons and supplies, so they were not as fast as Wang Ben's vanguard.
He just didn't know why the general wanted to see him.
"All of you go and help clean up the battlefield. I'll go and see the general.”Yi Feng instructed Xiao Shan, Xiao Hu, and the others behind him.
"Yes, sir!" Xiao Shan, Xiao Hu, and the rest bowed and replied, their eyes filled with envy. They never thought that the general would want to see Yi Feng as soon as he arrived. It could be seen how famous Yi Feng was in the army.
If he could obtain the high general's attention, Yi Feng's path would be smoother in the future.
Of course, they were also sincerely happy for Yi Feng.
Wang Li led Yi Feng towards Huan He's camp. The soldiers along the way were all Huan He's main forces, so they naturally didn't recognize Yi Feng.
However, when they saw Yi Feng covered in blood and still carrying a head in his hand, each and every one of them could not help feeling veneration.
They found it very hard to imagine just what kind of intense battle would cause Yi Feng's entire body to be dyed in blood like this.
"Greetings, General! Greetings, Generals!”
After Wang Li brought Yi Feng into Huan He's tent, the two of them cupped their fists and bowed to Huan He and Wang Jian.
"Yi Feng, are you alright?" Seeing Yi Feng covered in blood, Huan He couldn't help but frown and ask with concern.
"It's fine. It's all the enemy's blood.”Yi Feng said with a calm expression.
"Yi Feng, you've really brought this general a great surprise.”Huan He couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Yi Feng with admiration.
A few days ago, he received a message from Wang Ben that he had encountered the army of the State of Zhao and asked him to send reinforcements.
However, when he arrived, the Zhao army had already been defeated.
Moreover, he had personally gone to the battlefield and saw the corpses of the Zhao army all over the mountains. There were at least tens of thousands of casualties in this battle.
This was definitely a great victory.
Then, he used the other Qin soldiers to roughly understand the situation of this battle.
"I heard that you were the first to lead the soldiers to discover that the enemy wanted to attack at night?”Huan He asked curiously.
"Yes. Last night, General Mo suddenly woke up from his deep sleep and felt uneasy. He led his soldiers to patrol outside the camp. He didn't expect to find traces of the enemy and then started fighting with the enemy.”Yi Feng nodded and replied. This was the reason he had thought of long ago.
"Haha, looks like you are really the lucky star of our army!”Wang Ben burst into laughter after hearing the news.
After Yi Feng heard it, he did not know what to say. Everyone seemed to treat him as a lucky star.
"General, this time, the Zhao army was caught off guard by our army. Why don't we continue to move forward before the Zhao army can react and take Ye City in one fell swoop?”
At this moment, Wang Jian stood out and suggested to Huan He.
"Alright, pass down the order. Gather the army and continue advancing.”
Huan He thought for a moment and ordered. They were not far from Ye City anyway.
Thus, Huan He left a portion of his soldiers to continue cleaning up the battlefield and counting the battle achievements, while he led the army to set off again.
Wang Ben's 50,000-strong vanguard followed suit.
Yi Feng did not even have the time to clean himself up and could only gather his thousand soldiers to continue on their journey. As for battle merits, there would naturally be relevant personnel to calculate them, and no one would falsely claim his battle merits.
In this great battle, Yi Feng's thousand man team also had over ten soldiers who died.
However, this number of casualties was already considered very low.
Moreover, how could there not be casualties in a war?
After another half a day of marching, Ye City was already in sight.
The soldiers of Ye City also noticed Huan He's army at once. They shut the city gates tightly and waited for their arrival.
Huan He did not immediately attack the city. Instead, he ordered the army to camp outside Ye City and then ordered the soldiers to prepare and assemble siege weapons.
At the same time, send more people to patrol the surroundings to prevent reinforcements from other cities from ambushing.
Yi Feng also found an opportunity to go to the stream to wash up and change his clothes.
Wang Ben's 50,000 soldiers had just been through a great battle, so Huan He arranged for them to rest.
The soldiers of Yi Feng's group were all sitting in the camp and chatting excitedly, discussing their battle achievements and what kind of rewards they would receive.
Only Yi Feng sat quietly in a corner, thinking about his matters.
He knew that according to the course of history, Huan He, Wang Jian, and Yang Duan He did not take Ye City. In the end, they only took the other nine cities.
Therefore, he was a little worried that the attack on Ye City would be fruitless.
However, he was only a thousand generals now. At most, he could only command the thousand men under him.
Therefore, he would leave this problem to Huan He and Wang Jian to deal with. He only needed to follow orders.
"When can I lead troops and fight independently?”Yi Feng couldn't help but think to himself. After that, he began to think about what he would do if he was the commander of the army this time. Would he be able to take down this city?
