Because of this battle, they defeated all the grassland people in the area with lightning speed. Although many of them ran away, the results were still remarkable and amazing.
"My Lord, my Lord."
At this time, General Chen Xian of Gaoyang came riding forward.
There are nine grassland people behind him, but these people are not decorated like ordinary grassland people.
They were wearing silk, which was very gorgeous. You could tell at a glance that they were not ordinary grassland people.
Because silk, even in the Central Plains, is something that only the rich can afford to wear.
If it were placed on the grassland, the price would undoubtedly be more expensive.
opposite.
Song Hongzhi, wearing silver armor, frowned slightly after seeing this scene: "These are the Khans of the ten tribes of the grassland. Why are there only nine of them?"
That's right, in this battle they not only defeated the army of the Keqin region of the grassland, but also surrounded all the Khans. Song Hongzhi had even issued an order in advance that none of these Khans could die and must be captured alive.
Because only by capturing them alive can the results of this war truly reach an unprecedented level.
Originally, there were only eighteen strongest tribes in the grassland area. Now, if we can capture the Khans of ten tribes alive.
That was not only unprecedented since the founding of the Wei Dynasty.
It is also a dynasty that has never appeared in the Central Plains for hundreds of years.
Now, they have done it.
But now, one of the Khans of the ten major tribes is missing.
Chen Xian, who was standing nearby, bowed and said after hearing this: "My Lord, the battlefield was quite chaotic and someone escaped. We later found out that it was the Khan of the White Bear Tribe. Please punish him."
Their original plan this time was to transform all the Khans of the ten major tribes, but in the end they missed one.
Chen Xian felt that this was his dereliction of duty, so he came to apologize.
But after hearing this, Song Hongzhi shook his head, looked at the Khans of the nine tribes, and said with a smile: "Capturing the Khans of the nine tribes alive is already a great achievement. As for the other one, let him run away."
"Half of the Khans of the eighteen most powerful tribes on the grassland were captured alive. This battle is unprecedented for our Great Wei. What punishment? You have achieved merit."
Although he felt a little regretful, he felt that catching nine was enough.
He knew very well that as long as these nine Khans were in his hands.
The crisis at Zhenbei Pass had completely disappeared. Moreover, in the following process, Wei could take the initiative. Unless those grassland people dared to continue to take action under such circumstances.
But now, this is no longer possible.
Therefore Song Hongzhi believes.
The result of this battle is completely acceptable.
"This is all thanks to the Marquis. I was just following orders." After hearing this, Chen Xian immediately bowed.
However, his eyes were full of smiles, and even the generals who were cleaning nearby were in high spirits. Since leaving Gaoyang, their journey had been very smooth, and even in the battle in the Keqin area, they had not suffered much loss.
In other words, they achieved the greatest results at the lowest cost.
From generals to ordinary soldiers, it is foreseeable that if this military report is passed to the court, it will definitely cause a huge uproar, and His Majesty will reward again.
Anyone who participates in this war will suffer various punishments, and some people will even have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
The grassland tribes are the strongest and most difficult enemies of the Wei Dynasty, but now the nine Khans have been captured alive.
If nothing unexpected happens, there will be no more major wars in the North for the next few decades.
Even if the imperial court did not negotiate with the grassland using these nine khans.
He was simply taken to the capital.
It will plunge the eighteen tribes of the grassland into chaos.
Just imagine, if the tribal Khan is gone, it will definitely fall into chaos, especially the tribe of these nine people. Many people will choose to compete for the position of Khan.
In this situation, they would have even less energy to pose a threat to the Central Plains.
Therefore, everyone who participated in this war was very excited.
He was also very clear that he had made great contributions worthy of being recorded in history books. Together with the last battle of Gaoyang, this was the second time.
"Then General, what should we do with these people? Should we take them back to Gaoyang?"
At this moment, Chen Xian turned his head, glanced at the Khans of the nine tribes behind him, and immediately spoke.
According to his idea, he would bring these people back to Gaoyang and then submit a memorial to the court. Then he would just have to wait for the court's reward.
After hearing this, Song Hongzhi thought for a moment and finally decided, "Mr. Chen, this general will give you a mission. Lead a team and deliver these nine Khans to the old Marquis of Zhenbei Pass."
"Although this battle will cause chaos among the grassland army, the situation there remains dire. Zhenbei Pass is the first battlefield against the grassland tribes. After the nine Khans are sent there, the old marquis will be able to deal with those grassland people."
After hearing these words, Chen Xian was completely stunned, feeling a little unbelievable.
Because by doing so, it is equivalent to giving most of the credit for capturing the nine Khans of the grassland alive to the old marquis.
Although he also respected the old marquis very much, the current victory was also obtained through their bloody battles. It would be a shame to just send it over like this...
"General, I know what you're thinking." Song Hongzhi paused, then continued, "Capturing the nine khans alive is indeed a tremendous achievement, but you have to understand that the northern border is the main battlefield with the grasslands. Imagine if we brought these people back to Gaoyang, and the grasslands didn't fall into civil strife as we expected, but instead immediately turned around and launched an attack on Zhenbei Pass?"
