Chapter 232: Battle report to the general's residence

"Sir!"

Yang Mingzhen came over with a tired face, and the emotions in his eyes were quite complicated.

Yang Zhengshan looked at his face stained with blood, and nodded calmly, "How are the brothers?"

At the end of the battle, the three hundred cavalrymen could not maintain the original formation, and almost all dispersed.

Yang Mingzhen showed an ugly smile and said, "Several brothers were seriously injured and are being treated!"

Yang Zhengshan didn't say anything more, but drove his horse to the injured brothers.

Three hundred cavalrymen attacked the tribe of ten thousand people. The battle lasted for more than an hour, and there were countless killings. However, not many soldiers were injured, only 20 to 30 people, and most of them were only slightly injured, and only six or seven were seriously injured.

After the killing, the soldiers were a little depressed and complicated.

Their emotions should be the same as Yang Zhengshan's, chaos after madness.

Yang Zhengshan said nothing, but squatted down with a calm face to bandage the wounds of the injured soldiers.

Use spiritual spring water to clean the wound, take the medicinal wine and wound medicine that have been prepared long ago, and then give them some spiritual spring water.

Yang Zhengshan handled it very simply and skillfully.

In the past two years, he has been studying medical skills, such as the preparation of medicinal materials, the brewing of medicinal wine, the configuration of various prescriptions, etc. Although he has not systematically studied medical skills, he has a lot of knowledge about trauma treatment and the meridians and structure of the human body.

His calm performance also calmed down the emotionally confused soldiers.

Soon, the quiet atmosphere became active, and the soldiers began to take the initiative to clean up the battlefield, collect corpses, collect supplies, clean up the remaining enemies that may threaten, and gather the frightened livestock together.

"Mingzhen, go back and let Han Cheng move the camp over!"

"Be careful to guard against Tumoge's sneak attack!"

Yang Zhengshan ordered Mingzhen.

At present, they have captured this Hu tribe of nearly 10,000 people, and the military exploits and wealth of a tribe have been taken into their pockets, but next they need time to sort out these military exploits and wealth.

They certainly can't live in two places, which will give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of them.

Yang Mingzhen responded and left with dozens of cavalrymen.

Near dusk, Han Cheng brought a group of infantrymen to Zaltz in a carriage.

Looking at the bloody battlefield, Han Cheng's face changed, but he didn't say anything in the end.

After all, he was not a person who had never seen the world. Although such a bloody scene was rare, he had expected it in his heart.

After meeting Yang Zhengshan, he immediately set up camp on a small hill not far from Zaltz according to Yang Zhengshan's instructions.

...

The sun set in the west.

In the Tumoge settlement, Zha Yan sat palely on the main seat in the felt tent.

There were also several Tumoge high-level officials in the felt tent. They were all pale, and the heavy atmosphere made people gasp for breath.

Abatai is dead!

Zaltz is destroyed!

Nearly half of the 10,000 people of Zaltz were slaughtered. Although the others escaped, they became homeless refugees.

Such a result was unexpected by Zha Yan.

He had experienced the strength of the garrison camp, and he was also afraid of the strength of the garrison camp, but he never expected that a garrison camp of 1,000 people would destroy a tribe of nearly 10,000 people in one day.

This was a result he could not imagine.

"Leader, let's run!"

Someone finally couldn't help it and spoke.

Zha Yan raised his head and looked at the person who spoke with lifeless eyes.

Run!

Where to run?

If you run now, will they catch up?

The pupils in Zha Yan's eyes slowly condensed.

"Yes, run, we run now!"

He said hoarsely.

He was unwilling to move the tribe before because he was afraid that the tribe would be attacked by the garrison camp during the transfer, but now they must move.

If they stay here, they will only end up like Zaltz.

The transfer might also be attacked by the garrison camp, but at least some tribesmen could escape the pursuit of the garrison camp.

Especially himself!

If it doesn't work, abandon the tribesmen!

Zha Yan thought secretly in his heart and made a decision immediately.

Abandon the settlement, abandon the property, abandon most of the livestock, and move overnight.

His decision was recognized by the vast majority of tribesmen, and they began to flee the settlement that night.

Their actions naturally could not be concealed from the scouts of the garrison camp. When they just started to flee, Yang Zhengshan received the report from the scouts.

However, Yang Zhengshan ignored Tumoge's transfer, because the garrison camp's top priority was to take the current military exploits and spoils into the bag, rather than continuing to pursue Tumoge.

Of course, he did not give up Tumoge. He asked the scouts to follow Tumoge and wait for time to pick up this piece of fat meat.

...

Jiacheng, Lieutenant General's Office.

Wang Bin received battle reports from various garrisons today.

Tomorrow he will lead the reinforcement battalion out of the border, so he has been busy with the affairs of the border during the day, and only now has he found time to check the battle reports of each garrison battalion.

After reading the battle reports one by one, Wang Bin frowned slightly.

He has five garrison battalions under his command. Now all five garrison battalions have been out of the border for several days. He has read three battle reports, and the results are all without any results.

"These cowardly guys!"

Wang Bin couldn't help but curse.

It can be said that the garrison battalion leaves the border independently, which is full of dangers, but it is also the best opportunity to gain military exploits.

Wang Bin and the others were actually looking forward to it, and they also hoped that they could find the Hu Thief's clan and gain military exploits.

But now he has read three battle reports and found no results.

It's just that there was no victory. This may be due to bad luck and they couldn't find the tribe of the Hu thieves. However, two of them actually left the border for several days and marched less than a hundred miles. This was an obvious sign of fear of the enemy.

Wang Bin has decided that when this war is over, he will immediately withdraw these two bastards who are afraid of the enemy.

Opening a battle report again, Wang Bin's eyes lit up.

At this time, a battle report came from Qihe City garrison Zhang Yuanwu. According to Zhang Yuanwu's report, they had found a tribe of Hu thieves. However, the tribe of Hu thieves they found had a population of several thousand, and he had less than 600 people under his command, so Zhang Yuanwu's battle report was a request for help.

The main task of the garrison battalion is to find tribes of thieves. Of course, if they encounter some small tribes, if the garrison battalion is confident that they can defeat them, they can also launch an attack directly.

But if you find a tribe that you can't defeat, then ask Wang Bin for help.

This is the normal operation of the garrison camp, rather than being afraid of the enemy like those bastards who are greedy for life and afraid of death.

Finding a tribe is a reward and a big military achievement.

Wang Bin's mood improved instantly.

"This Zhang Yuanwu is a useful talent!"

Zhang Yuanwu is still very young, only thirty-two years old this year, and he is the youngest among the five guards under his command.

He was very satisfied with Zhang Yuanwu. If he could achieve results this time, he wouldn't mind promoting Zhang Yuanwu.

But his mind quickly shifted to the last battle report.

He left Yang Zhengshan's battle report at the end, it was the battle report he was most looking forward to.

Opening the battle report, Wang Bin looked at the contents with a look of joy on his face.

"Yes, yes, in just a few days, not only did we find a clan, we also defeated nearly a thousand barbarians and beheaded more than 800 people!"

Wang Bin was just happy that Yang Zhengshan could achieve such a result, not surprised.

He knew Yang Zhengshan and the Anyuan City garrison, and he had long expected that Yang Zhengshan would show his might in this expedition.

"Report the credit first!"

Although Wang Bin was overjoyed, he did not forget to report his merits to Yang Zhengshan.

The military exploits needed to be confirmed by sending someone from the General Military Mansion, and all the generals had their own thoughts on this expedition against the Hu tribe in the East China Sea.

The military attaches at the bottom may not know, but all the generals know in their hearts that Emperor Taiping and the court are watching this battle. If they can make great achievements in this battle, they will definitely be rewarded by His Majesty.

Although beheading more than 800 people is not a great achievement, it is still a considerable military achievement.

What's more important is that this may be the first achievement in this battle.

This first military achievement naturally attracted more attention.

Thinking of this, Wang Bin no longer hesitated, immediately summoned his personal followers, and arranged for someone to send the battle report to Chongshan Pass overnight.

…

Early the next morning.

Wang Bin led the six thousand reinforcement battalion to leave Jiacheng, and Yang Zhengshan's battle report was also sent to the General Military Mansion.

Today is the time for the reinforcement battalions to leave the country, and tomorrow is the time for Liang Chu to lead the Zhenbiao battalion to leave the country.

Early in the morning, Liang Chu was already busy in his study. He was about to go on an expedition tomorrow. There were still many things that he needed to deal with here, especially matters related to food and grass.

At present, Chongshan Town has abundant grain and grass reserves, but the transportation of grain and grass is the top priority.

Although he had made arrangements before, when the matter came, he still had to monitor it carefully to prevent any mistakes.

At this moment, the staff member beside him, Lu Zhong, walked in from the door with a smile on his face.

"Master Hou, there is good news!"

"Good news!"

Liang Chu raised his head in astonishment.

Ordinary battle reports will naturally not be sent to him. Since it can be called a victory report, it must be a big result.

"Master Marquis, please take a look!" Lu Zhong quickly handed the good news to Liang Chu.

Liang Chukai took a quick glance, with a faint smile on his face.

Yang Zhengshan, the battle report of his future in-laws.

"Please arrange for someone to go over and confirm your military exploits!"

This is a good thing, he is naturally happy.

But he was just happy. Although the results were not small, they did not have much impact on the overall battle situation.

Since it is the military exploits of the future in-laws, confirm them first so that you can ask for credit and rewards for the future in-laws later.

Lu Zhong responded and exited the study.

Afterwards, he selected a capital official and took two civil servants and two soldiers with small banners to confirm the battle achievements.

But by the time this group of people found Yang Zhengshan, it was already four days later.

Inside the garrison camp.

"The Commander-in-Chief of the General Military Mansion, Yuan Wanli, pays homage to Mr. Yang!"

Yuan Wanli was probably in his early thirties and looked a little thin. He saluted Yang Zhengshan respectfully.

If it was an ordinary guard, he probably wouldn't be so respectful. After all, he is the commander of the General Military Mansion, and he is also the commander responsible for verifying military achievements. With his official position, he will be praised no matter where he goes in Chongshan Town.

But in front of Yang Zhengshan, he didn't dare to put on any airs.

There was no way, the Yang family was the future in-laws of the Hou family, and he didn't dare to offend Yang Zhengshan.
