Chapter 1283 Defeat the Pyu Army

The situation on the battlefield has plummeted. This is not surprising to the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, because we have seen many similar things while following our Highness in the battle, but you are not used to it.

These people who accompanied the battles in various places were also full of joy. Although they were forced to serve as soldiers by the Tang Dynasty court and were unwilling to do so, now they also know what a good thing it is. The danger on the battlefield is not great, as long as it is If you work a little harder, you will be able to win, and you will be able to gain some benefits on the battlefield.

This is also the first time that Li Xiang has gathered people from so many tribes to participate in the war. After all, they all belonged to different ethnic groups and had different ideas in their hearts. Pulling them onto the battlefield would require taking great risks. From the current point of view, Not bad, it was the right risk to take.

The training of the Changsun brothers' army was definitely not in vain. After Li Xiang issued the mission, they quickly seized two passes and blocked the largest evacuation roads. Although there were still some small roads around, many soldiers came from Coming from the south, they don't know much about the area around Wa City, so even if there is a road, they don't know how to run.

What's more, the other troops under Li Xiang are not vegetarians. They are now starting to capture prisoners.

The cavalry on the grassland are the ones who capture the most prisoners. They ride back and forth on their tall horses. If anyone resists, they will cut off your head with a swing of their machete.

All kinds of heads were rolling down throughout the southern part of Wa City. When they saw these heads, the remaining soldiers did not dare to run around. At worst, they would just enter the prisoner-of-war camp of Datang. There was still a way to survive.

But if you are running around, those prairie cavalry will not reason with you. When the sound of horse hooves appears behind you, your head is actually saying goodbye to you.

The soldiers of the Pyo Kingdom were not very willing to resist. Now that they saw that their main force had been defeated, many of them simply stopped running. They had nothing on them. Even if you could run into the mountains and forests, what would you do? Woolen cloth?

From the day they were born, they knew that the mountains and forests were not for ordinary people to stay in. If you had the skills, you would be able to survive after entering. However, if you had been living in a town, you would be exposed to the poisonous snakes inside. There's no way anyone can survive if a beast delivers food.

So these people did not obey the orders of some generals and retreat into the mountains and forests, but stayed where they were. Didn't they just throw their weapons aside and enter their camp under the surveillance of the Tang army?

The Tang army has just promoted propaganda in the local language. As long as you don't resist, your personal safety will definitely be guaranteed.

Moreover, this is an imperial edict issued by His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. They all know that the Tang Dynasty is a big empire. Can their Emperor still keep his words? What's more, our lives are not very valuable.

General Mi Peng must not surrender. If he surrenders, his family members in the capital will not be alive. Here, like other countries, when you lead troops to fight, your family members must all be alive. It has to be sent to the capital, this is also to prevent these generals from rebelling.

The same is true for General Mi Peng. More than 30 members of his family are in the capital. If he surrenders to the Tang Dynasty, then I am afraid that none of these 30 people will survive, so he has to run away even if he has to risk his life. If he goes back, even if he is beheaded in public in the capital, his family will be able to save their lives.

As for the people in the surrounding border areas, news has spread. When their armies are defeated, the first thing these armies will rob is the people. Therefore, the people around the war zone seize the time to go home and block their doors tightly. These rebels must not be allowed to run in, otherwise if they lose some food, they may be killed. Without any discipline, they can do anything.

After five or six days of busy work, no large numbers of Pyu troops could be seen in this open space, only a few scattered kittens, and the rest had all entered the prisoner-of-war camp.

When General Mi Peng brought his people here, there were nearly 130,000 people there. Now more than 20,000 people died in the battle alone. There are also 80,000 people who have entered the prisoner of war camp, and the remaining six or seven Thousands of people retreated into the surrounding mountains and forests.

After hearing the report from the people below, Li Xiang nodded with satisfaction. If cars worth tens of thousands of dollars go in, it will pose a huge threat to our logistics line. There are only six or seven thousand people now. By then Yes, you can let them go first.

"According to the information you have received, how many people are there who can fight in the entire Piao Kingdom?"

On the eleventh day after the war ended, the outside had calmed down. Li Xiang also raised his flag and summoned his generals for a meeting in the camp.

"If you go back to Your Highness, there must be at least 40,000 people in the entire south, but more than 10,000 of them are temporarily recruited. They have not received any military training. Except for Wang Cheng's 13,000 people, The remaining people are nothing to worry about, these people are the elite of the entire Piao Kingdom."

Cao Lian also collected a lot of news about the south. Now a large number of troops have been captured, and the entire Piao Kingdom is in a trembling state.

"It seems they don't have many trump cards anymore, so there is still no movement from the southern court?"

Li Xiang said a little strangely, you must know that in this case, people will basically be sent to humiliate and sue for peace. If this is the case, Li Xiang does not mind keeping their royal family, but he must exercise military control over the entire Piao Kingdom.

"Your Highness, it has only been ten days since the war ended. Naturally, those defeated troops did not dare to return to the capital. Although some of them ran back to report the news, they only took the paths in the mountains and may not have reached the capital yet."

Cao Lian estimated the time it would take to go south. If he ran south as fast as possible, he would be able to reach the capital.

"It seems that I am a little impatient. Then our army will rest for a few days, but your people cannot rest. They are immediately sent to major cities in the south to get their first-hand information."

After Cao Lian received the order, he immediately went down to make arrangements. During this period, he was not idle in Piao State. His men had established a strong intelligence network. Although he had suffered trauma some time ago, he still couldn't find out the news. questionable.

"How are the losses on our side?"

Li Xiang saw many corpses being cremated in the distance, all of them were servants of the Tang Dynasty. (End of chapter)
