    Hu Lusheng¡¯s pursuit team waited until the next day before returning.

    After the war, Zheng Yanqing and Hu Lusheng inspected and captured nearly 4,000 Turkic knights captured in the camp.  Some people saw that Zheng Yanqing and his party were few in number after dawn, and they even thought about escaping, but Zheng Yanqing gave them no chance at all. All the Turkic prisoners who tried to resist and escape were massacred by Zheng Yanqing.  Under Zheng Yanqing's iron cavalry and horizontal swords, the nomads threw away their scimitars and dismounted and knelt down. They changed their previous unruly attitude and did not dare to move like a group of docile little sheep.

    ¡°Other trophies include more than 20,000 cattle and sheep, more than 8,000 war horses, and countless piles of fodder, ironware, grain, treasures and other materials.  In order to be prepared for the retreating Turks to fight back again, Zheng Yanqing did not dare to stay here for a long time, so he could only clean up the battlefield hastily. Many things could only be burned by Zheng Yanqing because of time constraints and being unable to carry them.

    And in that sheep basin with corpses strewn all over the field, only a spectacular Beijing view was left.

    Because they were escorting the endless cattle, sheep, horses and prisoners, Zheng Yanqing and others could no longer return to the Hulu tribe through the narrow Yinshan trails.  Everyone could only march eastward along the north side of the Yinshan Mountains, reach the west bank of the Datong River, then go southward, pass through the Woye Ancient Town and return to the south side of the Yinshan Mountains.

    Zheng Yanqing met Huang Mingzhen¡¯s troops who were ordered to assist them in Datong Sichuan. It was already five days before the group returned to Datong City.

    In the cold wind, Huang Mingyuan led Wei Yunqi out to meet the two of them thirty miles north of Datong City.

    Zheng Yanqing and Hu Lusheng saw Huang Mingyuan riding a horse in the distance from a distance, and immediately drove towards Huang Mingyuan.  There were still about fifty steps away from Huang Mingyuan, and the two of them jumped off their horses together and hurried over.  The two of them were about to bow down when they came to Huang Mingyuan, but how could Huang Mingyuan make them kneel down, hold one of them with one hand, and help them up.  Looking at their faces that were chapped from the cold, I couldn't help but pat their shoulders.  He laughed and hugged the two of them again.

    "Good brother, well done." Huang Mingyuan murmured.

    Huang Mingyuan had already obtained the result of the two men's battle, and this result was something he had never thought of before.  He originally thought that it would be great to be able to defeat the opponent's three thousand cavalry and lose their combat effectiveness in a short period of time.  Zheng Yanqing not only exceeded the task, but also obtained a mountain of seizures.  This achievement may not be achieved even if a large army of ten thousand people marches out.  As soon as Huang Mingyuan got the news, he went to the Ministry of War, Yang Guang and Fengzhou Yujuluo respectively to ask for credit for the two.

    Asking Wei Yunqi to direct everyone to set up a temporary camp on the spot, Huang Mingyuan led one person by hand to the temporarily built tent.

    "Two good brothers, please tell me how this battle was fought."

    Zheng Yanqing told Huang Mingyuan, and Hu Lusheng was also beside him to supplement.  Hearing that the two men beheaded the barbarian men, attacked the fortress at night, broke the camp with heavy cavalry, surrounded three towers, pursued them all night, and killed Ashina Chagan Huang Mingyuan listened with great pleasure.  The danger of the entire battle is evident. Although Huang Mingyuan and the two of them have performed many simulations before, if one part of the battle is not executed properly, it may be another result.

    Speaking of the casualties in this battle, Zheng Yanqing also looked stunned.

    "Brother, there were 328 people in total when the Yueqi Zuoying left the city, and 14 casual riders were recruited. One hundred and seven people died in the battle, and 37 people were seriously injured and retired. Now there are only one hundred and ninety people left.  Eight people."

    Hearing this, Huang Mingyuan also darkened his expression. After this battle, nearly half of the Yueqi Zuoying was destroyed and considered completely disabled. With the current strength of Datong City, it is basically impossible to rebuild it within two or three months.  Moreover, after this war, if they cannot expand the army in the short term, they will definitely not be allowed to fight again. He cannot let these more than a hundred treasures serve as cannon fodder on the battlefield in vain.

    ¡°There is nothing we can do about it. As soldiers, from the moment we put on our armor, this kind of thing is unavoidable.

    ¡°All the remains you bring back will be properly buried.  For the orphans they left behind, I will provide them with generous support, and Datong City will not forget their contributions.  Datong City will never abandon any soldiers who are seriously injured and can no longer fight.

    Don¡¯t worry Yan Qing, I will arrange to rebuild Zuoying after I return.  "

    Turned his head again and asked Hu Lusheng: "How is the situation of the various tribes riding?"

    "Brother, a total of more than 1,860 cavalry from six tribes were dispatched in this battle, with a total of more than 440 casualties. It can be considered a serious injury."

    Huang Mingyuan thought for a moment and said: "After this battle, the Wangge Department will be removed, and all subordinates will be handed over to the Hulu Department. One-third of the cattle, sheep, and horses captured in this battle will be given to you. As for the salt and tea, all the ironware will be given to you."  I will give you half of the food, food and other materials, and the prisoners will?It¡¯s useless if there are too many of you, and you can only kill most of them, so I¡¯ll only give you a thousand people as slaves.  "

    Hu Lusheng was surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that the loot Huang Mingyuan gave them was too much. Without the Sui army's heavy cavalry to break the camp, they would not be able to defeat them no matter how many rangers they had.  Turks.  Huang Mingyuan gave them almost half of what they captured, which was far more than the strength they paid.

    "Brother, how can this be done?"

    Seeing what Hu Lusheng wanted to say, Huang Mingyuan stopped him and said, "This is what you deserve. After all, without all the ministries, our army would never have achieved such great results. The battle has just begun now, and it may not be possible later."  There is no such opportunity.¡±

    "I have already written to the imperial court and General Fengzhou Yu. They will classify your tribes into protected tribes. From now on, you will be nomadic on the border of Sui Dynasty."

    Huang Mingyuan no longer looked at the two of them, looked into the distance and said: "We will be better in the future. But the premise is that we must be able to bear the pressure this time."

    After the group made a temporary stop here, Hu Lusheng and others did not follow them to Datong City. Each tribe returned to the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain with their share of cattle, sheep, horses and various supplies.  Accompanying them were the Yueqi Youying led by Huang Mingzhen and more than 200 Huqi led by Liu Yunfang.

    The entire Zuoying has been crippled and must return to Datong City to rest.  Huang Mingyuan sent more than 40 selected Hu cavalrymen and more than 70 elites selected from the infantry into the Yueqi left camp.  Prepare to reorganize this war-experienced iron cavalry into an iron army.

    As for all the seizures, Huang Mingyuan asked Li Zixiao to put grain and ironware into the treasury of Datong Town. He also gave other gold, silver, jewelry, cattle and sheep as rewards and pensions to Yueqi Zuoying, and Huang Mingyuan handed over all the rest to his own name.  Business group processing.  Horses are strategic materials. After leaving a small number in Datong Town, the rest can only be handed over to the court.

    As for the prisoners, including some descendants of the Ashina family and other senior generals, they will be sent to Chang'an for sacrifice along with the heads of Ashina Chagan and the other three Wanqi commanders.  As for the others, except for some who were rewarded and sold as slaves, the others were all handed over to Hou Mo and Chen Xi and became an important force in the infrastructure construction of Datong City.

    Huang Mingyuan does not like meaningless massacres, because in this time and space, there is no better manpower than prisoners.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
