The losses suffered by the Zhenxi Army in defeating the 2.7 million coalition forces of the Western Regions were extremely small compared to the results of the battle.

Except for the more than 18,000 officers and soldiers of the Xiang Army and more than 23,000 local militiamen who died in the process of defending Lijiang City, the Zhenxi Army suffered less than 20,000 casualties in the final decisive battle.

Therefore, the Zhenxi Army, whose strength was intact, led its troops to attack the Puwan Kingdom after killing more than 1.5 million prisoners.

The Puwan Kingdom sent a full 800,000 troops to join the coalition formed by the countries in the Western Regions.

In the battle of Lijiang City, only a few thousand cavalrymen from the Puwan Kingdom, led by General Dagati, escaped the pursuit of the Zhenxi Army.

Although the Puwan Kingdom still had an army of over 500,000 on the surface, these troops were basically composed of newly recruited young and strong men, and veterans accounted for less than one-tenth of the total.

Even the king of Puwan knew very well that it was impossible to resist the invasion of Liang's Zhenxi Army by relying on Puwan's own strength.

As for seeking support from other countries in the Western Regions, the King of Puwan knew that it would not work.

The disastrous defeat outside Lijiang City has wiped out the wealth of most countries in the Western Regions. The Parthian Empire, the only country that could still send out hundreds of thousands of troops, had its army tied down in the border areas with several western countries.

So after the Zhenxi Army invaded the Puwan Kingdom, the king of Puwan fled the Puwan Kingdom directly with members of the royal family and dignitaries.

Led by the king, the white people of Puwan, as well as officers and soldiers of the army, also fled to neighboring countries.

This also led to the fact that all the cities of Puwan Kingdom almost surrendered under the attack of the Zhenxi Army.

It took the Zhenxi Army less than two months to capture 178 cities of the Puwan Kingdom.

While attacking the Puwan Kingdom, the Zhenxi Army also began to liquidate some neighboring Western Regions countries that had joined the coalition forces.

In March of the 392nd year of the Daliang calendar, the Zhenxi Army, in addition to the Puwan Kingdom, also annexed 20 small countries in the Western Regions, as well as the three major Western Regions countries of Pilu, Shaye and Kangju.

The twenty small countries in the Western Regions and the countries of Pilu, Shaye and Kangju added a total of 330 cities to the Zhenxi Protectorate.

Only at this time did the Zhenxi Army agree to sit down and negotiate a ceasefire with the Western Regions countries, led by Parthia and Cheshi.

Faced with the strength of the Zhenxi Army, the countries in the Western Regions had no choice but to hold their noses and sign an armistice agreement with extremely harsh conditions.

Excluding the countries that had been destroyed by the Zhenxi Army, the remaining Western Regions countries participating in the coalition forces were required to pay large amounts of war reparations to the Zhenxi Protectorate according to the scale of their troops.

For example, the Cheshi Kingdom, which sent 400,000 troops to join the coalition, had to pay 800,000 kilograms of gold to the Zhenxi Protectorate. The Parthian Kingdom, which sent 100,000 troops to join the coalition, had to pay 200,000 kilograms of gold to the Zhenxi Protectorate.

In addition, the six major Western Regions countries, Yanzi, Yuli, Shache, Qumo, Wuli, and Xiuye, as well as twenty-six small Western Regions countries, will regard Liang as their suzerain state in the future, and the Zhenxi Army will have the right to station troops in the territories of these vassal states.

Originally, Sun Hao wanted to turn Parthia and Cheshi into vassal states of Liang, but unfortunately Parthia and Cheshi were very resistant to Liang becoming their suzerain state.

After the Parthian Empire and the Cheshi Empire agreed to increase their war reparations by 200,000 kilograms of gold each, the discussion of the two countries becoming vassal states came to nothing.

"Bang——"

At a martial arts training ground in the Western Protectorate of Feicui Town, Sun Hao's spear clashed with Li Jing's iron spear once again. Sun Hao couldn't help but take two steps back, then gasped and said to Li Jing, "Let's stop here for today!"

Although Sun Hao's current status makes it difficult for him to personally go into battle and kill the enemy, he has never slacked off in practicing martial arts.

Just a few days ago, Sun Hao's combat power value finally broke through 90 points, making him a "level 90" general.

Now Sun Hao can at least hold out for several rounds even if he fights against any "level 100" warrior.

When fighting against a powerful general like Li Jing, whose combat power value reached 95 points, Sun Hao could even hold out for twenty or thirty rounds without being defeated.

Li Jing poked the iron spear in his hand into the ground, then said with a smile: "My lord's martial arts have improved rapidly in the past few days.

If my lord practices spearmanship diligently for a few more years, I will no longer be able to defeat him."

Li Jing's current military rank in the Zhenxi Army is Lang Jiang of the Royal Guard. After Sun Hao's combat power value reached 90 points, he has been asking Li Jing to practice with him these days.

While conducting armistice negotiations with Parthia, Cheshi and other Western Region countries, Sun Hao readjusted the organization of the Zhenxi Army.

The left and right guards, the front and back guards, the north and south guards, and the east and west guards of the Zhenxi Army were all expanded into eight brigades, with the strength increased to 40,000.

And taking advantage of this adjustment, Sun Hao transferred all the generals who were from the imperial guards from the Zhenxi Left Guard, including Geng Jing, the former commander-in-chief of the Left Guard.

The current commander-in-chief of the Left Guard is Wei Qing, the deputy commander-in-chief is Huo Qubing, and the eight generals are Han Dang, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Zu Mao, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Li Jue and Guo Si.

These eight Lang Jiangs of Zhenxi Zuowei are all powerful generals newly summoned by Sun Hao from the "Annual Signing System".

During the process of the Zhenxi Army's conquest of Puwan, Pilu, Shaye, Kangju and twenty small countries in the Western Regions, the generals from the "annual signature system" collected a large number of white beauties for Sun Hao.

Sun Hao selected 38 white beauties whose charm values reached or exceeded 95 points and took them as concubines. He also obtained 38 additional sign-in opportunities in the "annual sign-in system" from these 38 new concubines.
