After this real battle, the n generations have undergone a complete transformation.

Gu Qingcheng saw all the changes.

She temporarily stayed in the earthen fort to repair, clean up, and write memorials.

The bodies of the fallen soldiers were burned, and their ashes were placed in jars and sent back to the capital.

In fact, ancient people did not completely reject cremation.

Soldiers who died on the battlefield, travelers who died in a foreign land... too many people had to be cremated for various practical reasons.

The same is true for transporting the ashes back to the hometown and then burying them.

Even the two nobles Zheng San and Cui Si could not really transport the body back to the capital.

The journey is long, the weather is hot, and even money cannot guarantee complete safety.

"Let's burn them all!"

After soliciting opinions from all n generations, Gu Qingcheng issued an order.

Soon, each porcelain jar was labeled with a name and was specially enshrined in the temporary tent.

Just wait for someone from Xizhou to come and ask them to send someone special to send him back to the capital.

Yes, Gu Qingcheng sent someone to Xizhou to deliver a letter before launching the attack.

Gu Qingcheng was not worried that his side would be defeated by a small group of roving cavalry.

After going through all the trials and tribulations along the way, they are no longer the frivolous teenagers they once were.

They were brave and fearless, and also had experience in fighting the enemy.

Perhaps he is still not as strong as the generals in Xizhou, but he can still fight against a small group of cavalry.

Gu Qingcheng sent a letter to Xizhou just to make additional preparations.

In case of any emergency, there will be reinforcements to rescue in time and the entire army will not be wiped out.

As for the Huo family in Xizhou, upon receiving the news, they immediately dispatched five hundred elite troops.

The leader of the team was none other than Huo Wuniang's brother Huo Sanlang.

When Gu Qingcheng's troops were fighting in the earthen fort, Huo Sanlang had already arrived with his troops.

However, he did not rush forward to provide support.

He was just watching from the outside.

As soon as the Ninth Prince's "Gilded Regiment" left the capital, General Huo, who was far away in Xizhou, received a letter via carrier pigeon.

General Huo also received timely information about the Gilded Regiment's "battle achievements" along the way.

In addition to the Huo family members around Huo Wuniang who secretly informed her, Huo Wuniang herself also wrote letters to her father and brother.

She not only reports on the battle situation, but also shares what she sees and thinks on the battlefield with her father and brothers, and receives guidance and instruction from them.

This can be considered as remote teaching for their daughter by General Huo and his son.

As for the results, ahem, actually, even without the guidance of the Huo family father and son, the Gilded Group would have no problem.

After all, there is still a weak general who is in charge of the strategy.

Gu Qingcheng: ...Are you polite?

Although they had not yet met, General Huo and the other men had formed an increasingly clear impression of the Ninth Prince from their daughter's (sister's) letters.

Your Majesty's beloved son is frail, but gifted and intelligent, and well versed in military tactics.

Although he cannot charge into battle, he can plan strategies.

In addition, he was good at managing the army and was clear about rewards and punishments.

The five hundred soldiers allocated by the Ministry of War, even if they were not old, weak, sick or disabled, were not elite soldiers.

Not to mention, there is a group of playboys and dandies in the team.

With such negatives added up, they are called a "gilded group", but in fact they are just here to get killed.

If they are not careful, a slightly stronger horse bandit can cause them serious damage.

But the Ninth Prince trained this guerrilla army step by step, from weak to strong, from small to big.

Oh, by the way, he also sidelined the captain assigned to him by Emperor Qing.

From the nth generation to the ordinary soldiers, everyone was convinced by the weak Ninth Prince.

“Interesting!”

"This Ninth Prince is quite different from the 'rumors'."

General Huo was originally reluctant to marry his daughter to the Ninth Prince, but his mother and brother in the capital strongly supported it.

Of course, the daughter’s desire to get married is also a major reason.

There were many other reasons including family reasons, so General Huo agreed to the marriage.

But General Huo still had doubts about the Ninth Prince.

However, after leaving Beijing, the Ninth Prince's series of actions changed General Huo's mind.

He began to look forward to meeting the Ninth Prince, and even more so, he hoped to see a son-in-law that would satisfy him.

Gu Qingcheng: ...I can make you even more "looking forward to it".

…

Huo Sanlang reunited with Gu Qingcheng and separated a part of the troops to send the seriously injured and the ashes of the fallen soldiers back to Xizhou first, and then a special person was responsible for the aftermath.

Huo Sanlang stayed in the earthen fort and observed closely.

He looked at the camp first, and found it well, in good order.

Especially that group of playboys, who had experienced a brutal war, were not frightened and retreated. Instead, they became more calm, which really impressed Huo Sanlang.

"Not bad! These people are well-trained!"

Born into a family of military honors, he grew up in a military camp.

When he grew up and led troops to fight on his own, Huo Sanlang became very familiar with everything about the military.

Over the years, he had personally seen some lords' sons who came to gild their reputations (add sand to their reputations).

When they first arrived, they were all full of energy and ambition, as if they were the next champion.

But when they actually went to the battlefield, there were all kinds of reactions.

Some people were so frightened that they peed their pants, some vomited on the spot, and some fainted and had nightmares afterward because of the severed fingers and debris...

When he came, he was so arrogant, but when he cried, he looked so miserable.

Some people learn from their shame and then become brave enough to defeat themselves and complete their transformation.

Some people were simply scared away and dared not pick up weapons again.
