Chapter 43 Result

As the sun sets in the west, the color of the dark red sky becomes more vivid. The shadows cast by the red mountains completely cover the valley before sunset. Only the remaining light of the setting sun can be seen on Dadui Mountain.

After a day of fierce fighting, the wind blowing in the river valley carried a strong smell of blood, which was extremely pungent.

Wang Jian rode through the valley on horseback. Dongfang Jin was half a horse's head behind him this time. He followed behind with some respect. Seeing the twinkling in his eyes, it seemed that there was a lot more to him.

The horse's hooves trampled on the withered yellow grass and continued south. The soil of many grass roots had seeped into the blood and turned dark red. Bodies and broken limbs in the river valley were being collected and piled together. Many soldiers shuttled back and forth in the river valley to collect weapons and armor.

, and then placed them according to the degree of damage to the type, and piled them into hills.

There were many people walking back and forth in the river valley, and in the distance there were Heyang soldiers using weapons to drive the prisoners into a queue to hand over their weapons and take off their armor.

After this battle, the Ma Ling Army's vitality was greatly damaged.

At dusk, the general at the front had given him a rough estimate. At least more than a thousand Maling soldiers died in the battle, and more than two thousand were captured. The exact statistics are still being compiled and will not be known for a while. But what is certain is that

, the loss of the Ma Ling Army in this battle was at least between 3,000 and 4,000.

In the era of cold weapons, the killing efficiency is limited, and this is already a very high battle loss.

Unfortunately, the Chinese army did not catch up with Ma Ling and allowed them to escape back to the camp.

Whenever Wang Jian passed by along the way, the soldiers stopped and saluted respectfully. After this battle, everyone's view of the Marquis completely changed.

"Marquis!" Wu Yi quickly came over on horseback, bowed his hands and reported the situation to him. He was disheveled, and the blood on his face had not been completely wiped away with fatigue, but his eyes were full of energy: "Sir, we have cleared it up over there.

, fifteen military princes, captured in total

One thousand, seven hundred and twenty-four prisoners were taken. As for killing enemies, it is difficult to calculate. Many enemies were hit by spells and their bodies were gone. However, according to the reports from various songs, more than a thousand enemies should have been killed. There were only complete corpses in the valley.

We also counted more than 900 objects!"

Wang Jian nodded: "Thank you for your hard work. What are the casualties of our army?"

"More than 600 people were injured, 309 people found their bodies, and more than 100 people are missing, and we are looking for them."

After hearing this, Wang Jian ordered: "Strictly order all armies to make statistics of military merits in detail. The enemy does not care. The casualties of our army must be clear. Who is injured and who has been sacrificed cannot be careless. It must be registered and made clear. If anyone has any

Omissions will never be taken lightly.”

"No!" Wu Yi accepted the order and then asked: "Sir, what should we do with those prisoners of war?"

"Kill all the seriously injured ones, and take custody of the rest," Wang Jiandao.

Wu Yi nodded and rode his horse to carry out the order.

Wang Jian was in charge of the aftermath of various battlefields in the valley until it was completely dark. A large jumping light spot in the distance approached from the mouth of the valley in the south. At first, it aroused everyone's nervousness. They were afraid of the counterattack from the Maling Army, so they sent people there.

After making contact, I discovered that it was the chasing cavalry led by Uncle Gong who had returned.

Soon more and more cavalry returned to the valley with torches lit. Many military princes and captains came excitedly to see the marquis as soon as they came back to express their loyalty and report their achievements.

Along with the return of a large number of cavalry, there were also many heads hanging on horseback. Behind the horses were many chained prisoners of war, who were pulled away one after another.

Uncle Gong finally separated from the crowd of cavalry officers who were surrounding Wang Jian to salute and walked out. He respectfully reported the overall battle situation on their side, "Marquis, we did not catch up with the general of the Ma Ling Army. They ran too fast.

We pursued all the way out of the peach forest in the south because it was too dark and we did not continue the pursuit, fearing that they would still have support in the south. However, we captured more than 300 prisoners, brought back more than 200 heads, and also captured

Nine princes of the Ma Ling Army and seventeen nobles."

"What's the situation in the southern camp?" Wang Jian asked. He didn't care about the lives of those nobles at all. What he wanted was the food, grass and baggage of the Maling Army.

"Everyone in the camp has fled. Their luggage, food, tents, armor, and weapons were all left there. I left a military leader to guard the camp." Uncle Gong reported.

Wang Jianli immediately ordered, "Send another ten teams (five hundred people) over there. We don't have enough manpower to find Wu Yi. Guard the camp over there. If anyone doesn't believe that something happened, I will pull out his skin."

"No!" Everyone agreed in unison, and then quickly carried out his order.

Then a large number of troops began to march overnight to the Taolin Camp abandoned by the Maling Army. After a great victory, Wang Jian did not forget to take the opportunity to expand the results.

Dongfang Jin has always been by his side to protect his safety. He looked at the river valley full of fires and the Heyang soldiers cleaning the battlefield. The smell of blood in the wind was gradually dissipating, and the dark red sky changed under the large firelight.

It turned into a strange bright red, and the mountain wind was howling

, Unknown wild beasts and birds on Dadui Mountain to the west are singing loudly at night, seemingly unable to feel the cruelty in the valley. There are still some stars hanging alone on the top of the mountain in the western sky, making everything feel like a dream.

When the night wind blew, I felt a little confused and couldn't tell whether it was reality or fantasy.

Just like today's battle, it still feels like a dream to her. The Heyang Army won a complete victory under various unfavorable situations with many new soldiers, a large number of them behind the opponent, and being commanded by a novice!

She almost vomited when she saw the piled-up corpses of the Ma Ling Army. Although she had followed the princess since she was a child and had been trained by the instructors of the Imperial Forbidden Army, she had never seen such a scene, such a real and cruel scene.

battlefield.

From just now, she has been looking at the man in front of her with an incredible look. He actually remained calm and commanding in front of thousands of troops. Until the situation on the battlefield suddenly reversed, she couldn't understand or understand it at all.

The truth is, but the reality in front of us is that the Heyang army defeated the many with less, the weak defeated the strong, and the victory was very beautiful.

The formation he adopted before the war, which he called the "Three Talents Formation" and was not favored by anyone, played a huge role in this battle.

Dongfang Jin felt that the things here were beyond her knowledge. No matter what happened, she must tell Chang'an's father what happened here today. This marriage ceremony was indeed extraordinary.

"Do you remember our bet?" Just as she was thinking wildly, the guy suddenly turned around with a malicious smile on his face, which made her feel nervous.

Dongfang Jin's heart beat faster and he was a little at a loss. He wanted to prevaricate and hesitated: "What?"

"As a princess guard, you can't be so incompetent. You don't even have such a memory."

This sentence immediately stimulated her, and she said without thinking: "Of course I remember!"

The other party laughed maliciously and looked back at her: "Just remember, people from a powerful country are treated as servants of princesses. As a model for other countries, they won't break their promises, right?"

"I" Dongfang Jin was speechless for a moment. She felt that she had never been so controlled by others since she was a child. She gritted her teeth and said, "Of course not!"
