Everyone cleaned the battlefield all night long, and it was not until the second half of the night that the battlefield was cleaned up.
They certainly could not take the bodies of those Dagan soldiers away for the time being, so they could only dig a pit on the spot and bury them.
As for the corpses of the Beihuan soldiers, that was not their concern.
Under Yun Zheng's strict order, the battlefield was cleaned exceptionally cleanly.
Not even a piece of broken armor was left for the enemy!
Otherwise, the enemy can take it back, repair it, and use it again in the future.
As the battlefield was cleaned up, their casualties were also counted.
In this battle, they killed and captured more than 13,000 enemy soldiers.
But it was a tough battle and they suffered heavy losses themselves.
There were more than 2,500 people killed in the battle alone, and more than 1,000 seriously injured.
...
...
As for those with minor injuries, there were too many of them.
Upon learning the number of casualties, Yun Zheng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
They did win, but their casualties were also heavy.
In just one battle, 20% of their strength was lost!
This was even the case when Qin Qihu led his troops to arrive in time.
If Qin Qihu and his men had arrived a little later, their casualties would have been even greater.
“It’s pretty good to be able to play like this!”
Shen Luoyan comforted him: "We are facing what should be considered the most elite cavalry in Beihuan!"
Beihuan dismissed so many soldiers.
Those who stay must be the real elite.
You can tell just by looking at their armor!
In Beihuan, troops equipped with complete armor are definitely elite!
Even in this situation, the enemy's casualties were far greater than theirs.
This result is actually very good.
Of course, compared with Yun Zheng’s achievements in Shuofang, this is definitely nothing.
However, when in Shuofang, Yun Zheng won by strategy.
But today, it is more of a head-on confrontation.
In a tough battle, the casualties are unlikely to be too small.
Unless the enemy is vulnerable and surrenders at the first sign of danger.
"yes!"
Yu Shizhong also followed suit, "In the past, when we fought with Beihuan, most of the time we suffered more casualties. The worst time was when we attacked head-on, Beihuan killed more than 30,000 of us at the cost of less than 3,000 people..."
At that time, Beihuan used the strategy of tiring the enemy.
Relying on his familiarity with the terrain, he sent troops to attract the main force of the Dagan cavalry head-on while the cavalry was exhausted, and then sent another part to go around their rear and suddenly attack from the rear, instantly causing panic among the Dagan cavalry and inflicting heavy damage on them.
"Okay, you don't have to comfort me! An army cannot be run with kindness! I'm not that fragile!"
Yun Zheng looked at the two of them with a smile on his face. "I just didn't expect that the fighting power of Beihuan's soldiers would be so strong..."
They have the advantage of weapons and armor, and the advantage of morale.
Moreover, there are ambushes that suddenly appear!
In contrast, the Beihuan cavalry had almost no advantages except for the initial advantage in numbers.
Moreover, these more than 10,000 Beihuan cavalrymen should have been reorganized after Jia Yao incorporated Aluta's troops, and they also faced the problems of unstable morale and lack of coordination.
It can be said that they have almost everything going for them: time, location, and people!
But even in this situation, Beihuan still caused them such heavy casualties.
This shows how powerful these Northern Huan cavalry are.
If both sides had 10,000 men each and they faced off with the same equipment, morale, etc., they would most likely be no match for the Northern Huan cavalry.
Damn it!
We have to quickly mess up the internal situation of Beihuan!
In this way, we can free up our hands to form heavy cavalry!
If the goal is simply to charge into battle, heavy cavalry would be the most suitable.
Thinking of this, Yun Zheng looked at Jiajiabu who was tied up next to him.
"You have good adaptability and are a good general. I will give you a chance to surrender!"
Yun Zheng began to persuade Jia Jiabu to surrender.
"dream!"
Jia Jiabu's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Yun Zheng viciously, "In my Beihuan, there are only men who die in battle, not men who surrender!"
“…”
Yun Zheng was speechless. He pointed at the surrendered Beihuan cavalrymen and complained helplessly, "How can you die if you don't pretend? Aren't these Beihuan men? Are they all your vassal troops?"
Upon hearing this, Jia Jiabu was speechless and his face turned red.
"You can kill me or chop me up, it's all up to you!"
Gagabu simply closed his eyes and stretched his neck.
"Really not surrendering?"
Yun Zheng frowned slightly, and said with an unhappy look: "Don't be tough with me. You Beihuan will soon need my help. If you surrender now, I can support you to become the Zuo Xian Wang of Beihuan, or even make you the Great Khan of Beihuan!"
He really wanted to support a Beihuan force that could be used by him.
Even if they destroyed all the main forces of Beihuan, in the future, he would have to rely on the people of Beihuan to help him govern Beihuan.
This Jia Jiabu has good abilities and can be considered as a candidate for support.
"Humph, you little brat, you are so arrogant!"
Jia Jiabu snorted coldly, "Yun Zheng, don't be too happy too soon! When the princess finishes her work, it will be the day you die!"
"Okay, I'll be waiting!"
Yun Zheng didn't take it seriously and asked again, "You really won't surrender?"
"No surrender!"
Gajabu looked determined.
"You have guts!"
Yun Zheng looked at him with appreciation, and winked at Yu Shizhong, "Leave him an intact body!"
Yu Shizhong took the order and went straight forward to break Jia Jiabu's neck.
Looking at Gajabu's body, Yun Zheng couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
He is quite a man!
What a pity!
Forget it, don’t I have so many prisoners?
We can then select a suitable person to train later!
The best way is to use Beihuan’s people to gather troops to fight Beihuan’s people!
After cleaning up the battlefield, everyone escorted the prisoners and the wounded to the tribe.
They have been busy all day and both men and horses need to rest.
After a night's rest, they would send people to escort the prisoners back with the wounded.
Qin Qihu left five hundred people to guard the tribe.
When they returned, those people had already prepared food and fodder for their war horses.
The food is the tribe's cattle and sheep, which are freshly killed and cooked. Although it is fresh, the taste is really not that good.
But for these soldiers who have been busy all day, this is definitely a delicious meal.
Everyone was already hungry, so they started to eat voraciously.
During the rest time, Yun Zheng called the two generals who were responsible for escorting prisoners and transporting the wounded, and gave them some instructions, asking them to go around a little to the left rear, send more scouts along the way, beware of enemy attacks, and contact the reinforcements led by Dugu Ce as soon as possible.
Once you encounter a large number of enemy forces, you can use these prisoners as bargaining chips.
As a last resort, you can kill all the prisoners, leave the seriously wounded behind, and lead the rest of the people to break out.
Of course, this is the last resort.
If they could send all the prisoners and seriously injured back safely, everyone would be happy.
