No matter what the result is, he has to report the news to the court. This is the rule.
"The bandits suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and about 20,000 surrendered, most of whom were civilians."
With every word the herald spoke, the atmosphere in the military tent became more depressing.
To the end.
Except for Yuan Jixian, no one else dared to breathe.
Yuan Jixian sat on the stool, deep in thought.
Just when everyone thought he was going to fly into a rage, Yuan Jixian looked at his generals and said calmly: "Deng Linqi, you take over the remnants of Jin Shenghuan; Wang Shuohua, you take over the remnants of Xu Guodong; Li Shiyuan, you take over the remnants of Wu Xueli."

Yuan Jixian nodded and said, "You should select strong and capable people from the surrendered soldiers to join the army, and the rest of the old, weak, sick and disabled people should be dismissed on the spot."
"The army will rest here, and the scouts will go upstream to investigate the enemy situation."
Two days later.
Yuan Jixian received a lot of bad news.
The imperial court's food supply suddenly stopped.
It was not Ainengke but Li Dingguo who floated down the Yangtze River.
Li Yan led his troops south, aiming at Jingzhou.
The Jiannu captured Yanzhou and captured the Prince of Lu.
