The shame of more than five years ago is still imprinted in the hearts of these soldiers.
It can be said that every one of these Tian soldiers has a grudge against Beihuan.
Now, more than five years have passed in the blink of an eye.
They finally washed away their previous shame with a big victory.
Listening to the deafening cheers, Yun Zheng felt a surge of heroic feeling in his heart.
The nausea I felt before had long since dissipated.
Instead, there is grandeur and excitement.
After planning for so long, we finally won a great victory!
Just as Yun Zheng was feeling deeply moved, Shen Luoyan suddenly swooped over, hugged Yun Zheng, and shouted excitedly: "We won! I avenged my father and two brothers..."
Shen Luoyan was so excited that he kept shouting.
...
...
But soon, Yun Zheng discovered that something was wrong with Chen Luoyan.
Yun Zheng pushed Shen Luoyan away slightly, only to find that her eyes were already filled with tears.
"Okay, stop crying."
Yun Zheng raised his bloody hand and wiped away Shen Luoyan's tears. "This is just the beginning. A mere victory is not enough to comfort their souls in heaven!"
"Um!"
Shen Luoyan nodded heavily and said in a trembling voice: "I... believe you!"
"Okay, use some snow to wipe the blood off your body first!"
Yun Zheng patted Shen Luoyan gently, and then ordered Gao He: "Pass the order down, clean up the battlefield, count the casualties! Send the injured back to Beidaying immediately!"
"yes!"
Gao He immediately ran down to pass on the order.
It was not until dark that they counted the results of the battle.
Yu Shizhong came to Yun Zheng with the statistical results, excitedly looking at his face.
"How many casualties have we suffered?"
Yun Zheng was the first to inquire about his own casualties.
Although they mainly rely on ambushes, casualties are inevitable as long as there is close combat.
Yun Zheng had already prepared himself mentally for this.
Yu Shizhong said excitedly: "We lost more than a hundred people in the battle, more than 300 were seriously injured, and the number of lightly injured was not counted..."
Hearing Yu Shizhong's words, a strange look suddenly flashed in Shen Luoyan's eyes.
For a moment, she really wanted to go up and hug Yun Zheng and give him a kiss.
But due to her girlish shyness, she was still too embarrassed to do so.
This bastard!
He really wasn't bragging!
He really did it!
He led these Tian soldiers and inflicted severe damage on Beihuan with minimal casualties!
"Five hundred people?"
Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's still a bit too much!"
"ah?"
Chen Luoyan and Miaoyin looked at Yun Zheng in astonishment.
They almost wiped out the enemy army with such few casualties. Is that too much?
Isn’t he too greedy?
"If Bambu heard what you said, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood..."
Miaoyin looked at Yun Zheng speechlessly.
Yun Zheng shook his head and said, "I originally wanted to keep the casualties under 100."
"Within one hundred..."
The two women looked at each other, and even Yu Shizhong was confused by Yun Zheng's words.
Even if they ambush us again, we must enter the canyon to wipe out the remaining enemies!
To other generals, this amount of casualties would probably be negligible!
He is so good that he even complains it is too much!
Are you still greedy and want to keep the casualties within 100?
Yun Zheng shook his head slightly: "In fact, if we enter the canyon later to wipe out the remaining enemies, the casualties should be controlled within 100..."
This was also his first time commanding a large-scale battle.
After all, he lacked some practical experience and only wanted to end the battle quickly and quickly, and did not seize the opportunity to enter the canyon to wipe out the remaining enemies.
"Your Highness, don't blame yourself. Your Highness has done it almost perfectly!"
Yu Shizhong replied: "I took a look and found that many casualties were caused by the Northern Huan cavalry's archery. Although our soldiers had shields in front to block the attack, there were so many of them and the Northern Huan cavalry were good at archery. There would always be arrows that would hit our soldiers through the gaps between the shields..."
Although they were in a dominant position, the Beihuan cavalry were not completely unable to shoot them.
After all, 16,000 Beihuan cavalrymen entered the ambush circle.
Even if a blind cat catches a dead mouse, there are still some people who can hit the soldiers who are doing great things.
When they actually rushed into the canyon to wipe out the remaining enemies, everyone basically formed a small battle formation to deal with one remaining enemy together, and the casualties were actually negligible.
"Is that so?"
Yun Zheng's expression improved slightly, and he asked again: "How many enemy soldiers did we kill?"
Talking about the gains of this battle, Yu Shizhong suddenly became excited again.
In this battle, more than 15,000 Northern Huan troops were killed and more than 700 were captured.
The main reason was that some of Beihuan’s rear troops had not entered the canyon yet, and those people ran away.
They also seized more than a thousand intact war horses and three thousand slightly injured war horses.
However, because they attacked indiscriminately with a rain of arrows during the ambush, many of the horses were not dead but had been hit by several arrows, and only a few could be saved.
Moreover, even if these seriously injured war horses were rescued, they could basically only be used as mules or pack horses.
"Then kill all the seriously injured horses!"
Yun Zheng made a prompt decision.
Shen Luoyan was about to speak to stop him, but after hesitating for a long time, he did not speak in the end.
She is a person who cherishes war horses.
Many cavalrymen also cherish their war horses very much.
She didn't want Yun Zheng to kill these war horses.
But she knew in her heart that what Yu Shizhong said was true.
It is unknown whether those war horses can be saved.
Even if a huge amount of manpower and material resources were spent on rescuing them, those war horses would ultimately never be able to go to the battlefield again.
Yu Shizhong accepted the order and asked Yun Zheng: "What should we do with the bodies of the Beihuan cavalry?"
"How did you deal with it before?" Yun Zheng asked.
"Cut off the head."
Yu Shizhong said, "After the battle, we will count the number of people killed. However, this time we mainly used ambushes, so it is not easy to count the number of people killed. I am afraid that the soldiers will fight over the enemy leader, so I ordered them not to move and wait for your decision."
"You are so inhumane."
Yun Zheng complained.
"this……"
Yu Shizhong was slightly embarrassed, "Otherwise it would be hard to count the military achievements!"
When serving in the army and fighting in a war, who doesn’t want to be meritorious?
But if you want military merit, you have to produce something, right?
Otherwise, how many enemies do you kill?
"Just kidding, look at you!"
Yun Zheng smiled at Yu Shizhong and said, "Give orders to drag out all the bodies. I still have use for them. No one is allowed to move them without permission! Everyone, behave yourself. They will be rewarded for their contributions in battle!"
"ah?"
Yu Shizhong wondered, "What does Your Highness intend to do with these corpses?"
Miaoyin smiled and said, "I guess he is up to something again and wants to trick Beihuan again!"
"Look at what you're saying!"
Yun Zheng looked at Miaoyin with dissatisfaction, "What do you mean by yin? I am acting in the spirit of humanitarianism and respecting the dead..."
“Stop, stop!”
Shen Luoyan quickly stopped Yun Zheng and said angrily, "Aren't you embarrassed to say this?"
She also felt that Yun Zheng wanted to use the corpse to trick Bei Huan again.
This bastard is the kind of person who would kill someone without any remorse!
"Why am I blushing?"
Yun Zheng curled his lips, "The ones who should be blushing are those treacherous villains like Bei Huan!"
Shen Luoyan smiled helplessly and asked, "What on earth are you going to do with these corpses?"
