    The Southern Army led by Major General Luo Jing of the Southern Army suffered heavy losses in the battle, and the Qinghe Army also suffered heavy losses.

    In particular, although the several banner battalions at the forefront maintained their organizational system, they were almost disabled and lost their combat effectiveness.

    In such a frontal battle confrontation, not only the commanding ability of the commanders on both sides is tested, but also the combat effectiveness and tenacious fighting will of the soldiers are tested.

    The Southern Army launched a fierce attack, while the Qinghe Army adopted a relatively conservative defense and counterattack tactics.

    The banner battalions of the Qinghe Army forcibly withstood the stormy attack of the Southern Army, and then launched a fierce counterattack.

    If it weren't for the Southern Army's elite skeleton battalion and the cooperation of each battalion, the Qinghe Army had completely defeated the Southern Army.

    However, the southern army is also the frontier army of the Far Eastern Dynasty guarding the southern region. Although their combat effectiveness is not as good as the rest of the frontier army, their qualifications are there.

    ? Even though they are now full of internal conflicts, they have a rich background. In times of crisis, the command of the general and the cooperation of the various troops are quite powerful.

    As a newly rising force, the Qinghe Army is also growing rapidly in size.

    The Qinghe army grew up in battles, but most of them fought small-scale battles.

    Even the larger-scale battles experienced were just general attacks launched after the enemy was dragged down and exhausted.

    This time, they fought head-on with the main force of the Southern Army on the Blue River Plain. As a newly rising military force, their performance was also remarkable.

    Officers at all levels of the Qinghe Army grew up from battles. In this decisive battle with the Southern Army, it was the first time that eighteen banner battalions gathered together to fight together.

    As the commander of the battlefield, Yuan Jie, the head of the corps, constantly adjusted the deployment and transferred the troops to where they were needed.

    And each banner battalion also carried forward the fine traditions of the Qinghe Army. Whether it was the old main force or the newly formed troops, they were all ordered and prohibited, and their execution was quite strong.

    And there was no order to retreat. Even though the casualties were heavy, they still relied on their tenacious will to fight to the death and carried forward their tenacious fighting spirit.

    Among the hundreds of generals on the front line, the casualty rate of a thousand generals is as high as 50%. It is precisely because they personally lead the troops to fight, that they, an army mixed with many new recruits, can face the enemy head-on.  Defeat the veteran Confederates.

    The attack of the Thirteenth Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army Cavalry sounded the horn of the Qinghe Army's defensive counterattack.

    The Southern Army of the Thirteenth Banner Regiment of the Cavalry was as high as 15,000 on the battlefield, and they played the role of the mainstay.

    During the pursuit, they also charged forward countless times, breaking up the broken southern army, and allowing the Qinghe army to expand the results of the battle.

    Although all units of the Qinghe Army performed very well, during the battle, there were still many deserters from the 20th Banner Regiment and the 21st Banner Regiment.

    Both of these two flag regiments are newly formed troops, although the soldiers are drawn from the security forces.

    However, the public security forces have never experienced combat. Their main tasks on weekdays are to maintain local law and order and perform patrols and other tasks.

    This time, they were drawn to the battlefield as soon as they came up. Most of the soldiers, led by officers, fought bravely in the battle.

    However, there were still hundreds of Qinghe Army soldiers who deserted on the battlefield in order to save their lives in the face of the fierce attack of the Southern Army Skeleton Battalion.

    At that time, the fighting was extremely cruel and fierce, and officers at all levels naturally had no time to take care of deserters like them.

    After the battle, these deserters who escaped were captured by the cavalry patrol of the Qinghe Army.

    Seeing hundreds of deserters, Yuan Jie, the head of the regiment, was also heartbroken, because the Qinghe Army has always been strict in military law, and deserters appearing on the battlefield made him feel ashamed.

    "This is a disgrace to our Qinghe Army! You must reflect on yourself when you go back!"

    Although the Corps Commander Yuan Jie did not scold Tian Changjie, the Commander of the 20th Banner, and Wu Sen, the Commander of the 21st Banner, their faces were hot.

    Because the deserters were all from their two banner regiments, they, as the banner regiment leaders, naturally had to bear the responsibility.

    Under Yuan Jie's order, hundreds of deserters were all disarmed, and the Gendarmerie directly under the Corps sent people to detain them, and they were dealt with by military law after the war.

    Casualties were also counted. On the first day of the battle of the Qinghe Army, more than 9,000 soldiers were killed, and even more were injured.??.

    If the Qinghe Army's First Banner Regiment and other main forces were pulled up to face the Southern Army, the casualties would be less.

    However, among the four banner regiments under Yuan Jie's command, only the 13th Banner Regiment of the Cavalry is almost all veterans.

    Among the other three banner regiments, recruits accounted for a considerable proportion, especially the 21st banner regiment, which was composed entirely of recruits and could defeat the southern army. Yuan Jie could still accept these casualties.

    After all, the real elite and strong army cannot be trained on the training ground, and all of them are tempered from the cruel battle of blood and fire.

    The recruits of these banner regiments have experienced this cruel battle, and they will also become veterans, and become the howling tiger and wolf division.

    "The remnants of the Southern Army don't have much combat power anymore. Tonight, the sentry posts will be tripled, and the rangers will be placed in a radius of 50 miles. The banners and battalions will rest to replenish their physical strength. We will launch a general attack tomorrow to wipe out the Southern Army in one fell swoop!"

    The battle was not over, and Yuan Jie didn't make any summary of the battle. He just made arrangements for the next day's battle, and then let everyone go back to rest.

    Each banner battalion took turns to fight against the Southern Army, and also had a general understanding of the Southern Army's combat effectiveness.

    They still had sufficient confidence in annihilating the southern army, and they were exhausted, and soon returned to their camps to rest.

    Before dawn the next day, the camp of the Qinghe Army was filled with smoke. Under the supervision of the officers, the soldiers of each banner battalion hurriedly ate breakfast and began to assemble.

    When it was dawn, the Qinghe army was full of battle drums and horns, and groups of Qinghe troops with high spirits drove out of the camp and slowly pushed towards the camp of the southern army.

    The Southern Army suffered heavy losses in yesterday's battle, with less than 20,000 of their 50,000 troops left.

    So Major General Luo Jing didn't intend to continue the field battle with the Qinghe army, so he raised his exemption card and prepared to be a coward in the camp.

    Sometimes if you don't go for trouble, trouble will find you. For the Southern Army, this is the case now.

    Although they didn't want to fight the Qinghe army, the Qinghe army wanted to strike while the iron was hot and wipe them out.

    Seeing that the Southern Army had put up the exemption card and would not fight, Yuan Jie, the head of the Qinghe Army Corps, naturally expected it.

    "Pass me the military order, act according to the plan!"

    The blood-stained soldiers of the Qinghe Army laid out their formations in black, and catapults were pushed to the front of the formation.

    Seeing those grotesque trebuchets, Major General Luo Jing, who was observing the Qinghe Army from the sentry tower of the camp, turned green in the face.

    Luo Jing had seen the power of this thing yesterday, when a stone as big as a millstone fell down, people would turn into meat sauce.

    Seeing that the Qinghe Army was about to bombard their camp with trebuchets, the faces of the generals of the Southern Army were also quite ugly.

    "That thing is just to scare people, it's not very lethal."

    Seeing the pale-faced generals, Major General Luo Jing calmly spoke to comfort them.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
