Chapter 633 Make plans again

When Yunzheng woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

"Have we got a casualty count?"

The first thing Yunzheng did when he woke up was to ask Miaoyin about the casualties.

Miaoyin nodded slightly and truthfully reported the casualties to Yunzheng.

In this battle, the most casualties were from the servant army.

Fifteen thousand servants, nearly 7,000 casualties.

Fifteen thousand cavalry, more than 4,000 casualties.

Yunzheng's five thousand personal guards suffered more than a thousand casualties, but most of them were temporary recruits from Tong Gang.

The blood-coated army's casualties were not small either.

Although the blood-clothed soldiers were wearing heavy armor, they were not invincible.

Three thousand blood-coated troops suffered more than 200 casualties.

The total number of soldiers and civilians in Beimatuo also suffered more than 6,000 casualties.

The total number of killed and seriously wounded was nearly 20,000.

As for those with minor injuries, they were not included in the statistics.

As for the enemy's casualties, they did not know.

A rough estimate is that the enemy's casualties were at least twice as many as theirs.

This does not include those who were burned to death in the enemy camp.

After learning about the casualties on the battlefield, Yun Zheng couldn't help but sigh.

Damn it, if you stay on the safe side, there are still so many casualties.

Fortunately, there were still servants and people from Beimatuo who were there to support them.

If those who died were all elite members of the Beifu Army, he would probably die of physical pain.

While the two were talking, Tong Gang ran over with excitement on his face, "Your Highness, General Deng and the others are back, and they have brought back many prisoners!"

"Approximately how many prisoners are there?" Yun Zheng asked enthusiastically.

Tong Gang: "I heard there are at least 20,000 to 30,000 people!"

"not bad!"

Yun Zheng sat up quickly, "You go ahead and select people! These people have just been captured and will cause trouble if they are not managed well. Don't be too greedy. Just recruit a thousand people from them first!"

"In addition, tell Fu Tianyan and Huo Gu that they can also select 3,000 people from the prisoners to add to the servant army!"

"Send another thousand prisoners to Beimuo... Forget it, I won't give them prisoners to Beimo. I'm afraid they will be happier if I give them more trophies..."

Although it is necessary to recruit and surrender prisoners, one must also be on guard.

Aliens are still aliens after all.

The number of prisoners must be much smaller than the original number of each ministry.

Only in this way can the captives not dare to rebel.

After the new people are assimilated, more people will be recruited slowly.

"Yes!"

Tong Gang accepted the order with excitement on his face.

Yun Zheng asked him to recruit four thousand personal guards, wasn't it just to prepare for this moment?

As soon as Tong Gang left, Deng Bao, who came back first, hurried over to find Yunzheng.

"Your Highness, the enemy army has not been completely defeated!"

Deng Bao's face looked a little ugly and he said breathlessly.

"Not completely defeated? What do you mean?"

Yunzheng didn't know why.

Deng Bao immediately replied: "Our scouts discovered that the enemy troops had been on the run all night. They had regrouped 40 miles away from our troops and collected the broken troops to establish a defensive line. They also slaughtered a large number of horses and livestock, seemingly to use them as food for the army. , hold on there! The ones we captured are all slow-running defeated soldiers..."

Listening to Deng Bao's words, Yun Zheng couldn't help but be surprised.

Killing war horses for military rations?

Previously, the enemy's commander was charging into the formation with a flaming horse!

Come on!

Is the enemy's commander a disciple of Ga Yao?

Why are there just some Gayaro's remaining moves?

However, complaints are complaints.

The enemy's move was indeed beyond Yun Zheng's expectations.

Even though this is the case, the enemy army still doesn't retreat and continues to defend?

What, the enemy army is pointing to the ghost side to defeat Yu Shizhong and others so that they can support them?

As he was thinking about it, Yun Zheng's heart suddenly jumped.

He seemed to have guessed what the enemy was going to do!

This may also be the enemy's last chance!

After thinking silently in his mind for a while, Yun Zheng immediately ordered: "Come here, order all the chiefs to come immediately to discuss matters! Call Zulu too!"

After receiving Yun Zheng's order, the heads of the various tribes rushed over quickly.

Seeing Yun Zheng, Fu Tianyan and Qin Qihu quickly apologized for their previous dispute with Yun Zheng.

"This kind of thing will never happen again!"

Yun Zheng glared at the two of them angrily, "As for the reason, think about it yourself! When you figure it out, tell me the king. If you don't figure it out, wait until the war is over, go get thirty military sticks, and then ask me the reason. !”

The two laughed dryly and agreed again and again.

Yun Zheng did not dwell on the matter and asked Deng Bao to explain the situation to everyone.

When Deng Bao finished speaking, everyone was surprised.

Obviously, no one expected that the enemy army had not been completely defeated under such circumstances, and was still gathering the defeated troops to re-establish a defensive line.

"The enemy is probably going to send troops from Tianqiong Pass to attack our defenders at Tianqiong Pass."

Yunzheng said in a deep voice: "Maybe, the troops of both countries will attack from Tianqiong Pass, and we must send troops to support General Dugu and the others!"

support?

Listening to Yun Zheng's words, the generals couldn't help but feel a little lost.

They had just experienced a hard battle and had just won. All the soldiers were exhausted after taking turns fighting.

Moreover, their losses were also huge, and Yunzheng also had an attack plan behind him.

Do they still have the power to support Duguce and them now?

"I will lead the blood-coated army to support!"

Qin Qihu jumped out first and said with a smile: "Just right, we didn't have enough fighting last night!"

"it is good!"

Yunzheng nodded and looked at Deng Bao, "Your department will also dispatch five thousand cavalry!"

"Yes!"

Deng Bao accepted the order and said with some worry: "But Your Highness, if we send so many people away, it will be difficult to fight on the Sole River Plains! Your Highness is not trying to break through the Sole River Plains and quickly go around to the back of Tianqiong Pass. , cut off the food route for the defenders at Tianqiong Pass?"

This plan was made by them at the earliest.

They got so much dry food just to prepare for this plan.

When they also suffered heavy losses and sent so many people away, this plan might not be realized.

"The plan couldn't keep up with the changes. Who would have thought that the enemy army was not defeated?"

Yun Zheng smiled helplessly, "The main focus here is defense for the time being! After the enemy is short of food, naturally they can no longer hold on! We can also take advantage of this time to prepare our troops and horses!"

"If this is the case, the general will be fine!" Deng Bao laughed.

Yunzheng nodded slightly, and his eyes fell on Zulu again, "Big-headed man, I will give you enough weapons and armor. Can you organize an army of ten thousand?"

In this battle, although they did not seize grain and too many horses, they did seize a lot of weapons and armor.

Under this situation, Yun Zheng also became generous.

"Yes, yes!"

Zulu nodded vigorously and said tentatively: "But we don't have that much food and grass. Your lord, look..."

"What food and grass do you want?"

Yun Zheng smiled and glared at Zulu, "With so many war horse corpses, how can I miss you? In addition, I will give you another thousand lightly injured horses and five hundred intact horses! They will be used for you to fight bravely. Reward!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zulu was so excited that he knelt down on one knee.

Beimatuo is not without people.

It's just that Beimatuo's smelting technology is not good and he doesn't have enough weapons and armor.

In addition, they were not good at farming and could not afford to raise too many soldiers.

As long as you give them weapons, armor, food and fodder, and prepare an army of 10,000, it's no problem at all!

"You deserve this!"

Yun Zheng chuckled, "After this battle is over, I will still have a reward!"

Is there any reward?

Zulu's eyes shone again, and he expressed his gratitude to Yunzheng happily...
