At nightfall, when Meng Yi arrived at the battlefield with more than 10,000 people walking slowly, the wind and sand blowing from the neighboring desert had stopped, and the battle between Qin and the Xiongnu had long been over.

General Li Xin led the cavalry to pursue the remnants of the enemy, while General Heifu counted the gains and losses in the camp tent and wrote a good report......

"Gongzi Rende, after the war, he personally went to compensate for the dead and wounded."

Heifu stopped writing and smiled at Meng Yi, his boss when he was Lang Wei: "It is really a blessing for Great Qin to have such an eldest son, Your Majesty should be relieved to see this situation." ”

Meng Yi is older than Heifu, he has always been upright, but in his heart, he has some preference for Fusu, the son who has taught the law, Heifu's words make him very useful, but his face is still solemn, and he went to find Fusu.

Vultures and crows hovered overhead, and the entire stream of water was strewn with corpses, mostly Huns and their horses, and occasionally Qin soldiers in black armor. The heads of the Huns were cut off by the Qin soldiers and hung on their waists, and the corpses of the Qin people were carried to the side and placed neatly by the people who were responsible for cleaning up the battlefield.

Gongzi Fusu was kneeling on one knee beside the corpses of the soldiers killed in battle, silent, waiting for the military judge to check the identities of these soldiers and register them in the list of the dead.

"Childe."

Seeing Meng Yi coming, Fusu said to him: "Meng Jian Jun, I know today how many soldiers' lives need to be sacrificed to achieve success, and many people can't even identify the corpses. Fortunately, everyone carries their own experience and biography. The Beidi soldiers even have a military badge made by General Wei, which is hidden on the inside of the armor, even if it is trampled beyond recognition by the hooves of the Huns, it can still set up a famous tombstone for him! ”

It was the end of summer, the weather was hot, and the corpses could not be brought back, so they could only set up a "loyal cemetery" on this battlefield.

"Not only the soldiers who died in battle today, but also the hundreds of good sons who died under the arrows of the Huns in order to pass on the news, and even the dead horses who were attacked by the Huns in Shangjun, I hope they can be buried here."

Meng Yi nodded: "The people of Longxi and Beidi will do a good job of this, and the Governor of Baiyang Mountain Feng sent someone to contact him?" ”

Fusu said: "After defeating the Xiongnu Shan Yu, General Wei immediately sent people to contact, Shan Yu left thousands of cavalry under the Baiyang Mountain to monitor, but the Shangjun soldiers thought it was the strategy of the Huns, and still stuck to the mountain, only sent people to the river to draw water......"

"Feng Zheng is going to be unlucky this time."

Meng Yi hey, also as the second generation, the relationship between the Montessori and the Feng family can only be regarded as ordinary, this time in the Northern War, Feng Zheng lost two battles in a row, if it were not for the timely aid of Beidi and Longxi, I am afraid that the whole army would be wiped out. Although it has been preserved now, Feng Zheng has also completely become a foil for the exploits of Li Xin and Heifu.

Speaking of the command and cooperation of the two generals in this battle, Fusu is still a little unsatisfied.

After looking at the whole battle, he also understood a little that the Huns were almost all cavalry, and the cavalry galloped to fight, and they needed a relatively wide battlefield, which was also the reason why it came and went like the wind, and it was difficult for the Central Plains soldiers to fight against the enemy in the flat land outside the Saiwai.

If you try to flank and outflank, the river is muddy and difficult to walk, and the speed of the horses is greatly affected, so the Huns' previous "gallop and shoot" tactics can not be implemented at all, and can only be forced to meet with the constantly impacting Qin army cavalry, because of the generation difference in equipment, how can it be a well-equipped Qin cavalry opponent?

After the strategy of the Hun cavalry on the right flank to kill Li Xin failed, they began to retreat, and Li Xin was supported by 2,000 foot soldiers transferred by Heifu, and directly drove more than 10,000 Huns down the river......

After defeating the Xiongnu cavalry on the right flank, Li Xin asked the cavalry to immediately change into new horses and launched a flank assault on the main force of the Xiongnu Shan Yu, who was constantly retreating by the Qin army's foot soldiers.

"The hammer and the anvil, the analogy of General Wei is very exquisite."

Fusu recalled the scene at that time, first of all, the black man made the war drum to the loudest, the Qin army Wugang car, foot soldiers, who were originally slowly advancing, suddenly accelerated towards the Huns, the Huns wanted to retreat, but were obliquely inserted by the Qin cavalry to block the retreat, the two counties of the cavalry under the command of their respective cavalry, in the tens of thousands of Hun cavalry longitudinal cutting, horizontal insertion, encirclement, central conflict, back and forth, really like a hammer, the tough as iron Huns a little bit of hammer deformation, sparks splashed!

At the same time, taking advantage of the fact that the Huns could not retreat, the foot soldiers also pressed up, squeezing them together. The crossbow reaped the lives of the Huns, and the Qin soldiers holding the spears of the Zhangba chiefs approached from the gap and poked the Hun riders off their horses, as long as the Huns fell off their horses, there were countless heads up and down, splashed with blood, and pecked them to death, and if the Huns were forced to dismount and fight, they would face the Qin soldiers holding swords and shields, and they would not take advantage of it at all......

The whole process is indeed like a blacksmith constantly hammering the pieces of iron.

At this time, the Xiongnu were already somewhat disorganized, and seeing that the battle was unfavorable, the Xiongnu tribes in the rear did not obey Toumandan's order to continue the attack, and turned to cross the river and flee north.

Tou Manshan was not in time for the order, and had to order the troops to retreat, Li Xin ordered the Qin cavalry to pursue, the two sides fought fiercely in the Dusi Rabbit River, and the previous Li Xin repelled the big danghu Su Busheng tried to come back to save the defeat, but was shot by the crossbowmen, and his troops were scattered again......

But it was at this moment that Tou Mandan was able to cross the river and escape, just in the twilight, the sandstorm blowing from the northern desert rose sharply, because he was afraid of rashly pursuing and getting lost and being attacked, Li Xinling ordered the cavalry to rest on the spot, and after half an hour the wind and sand subsided, and chased again.

This is the whole process of the whole battle, Fusu stands at the command post, you can look at the overall situation, Heifu explained two sentences from time to time, he watched it very enjoyable.

It's just that after the war, he inspected the battlefield and saw the Qin soldiers who were also killed and wounded lying in the river, on the beach, and among the grasslands.

"Open up the frontier and expand the border, how can there be no dead and wounded?"

Meng Yi persuaded: "After this battle, the Xiongnu should lose their courage and dare not be the enemy of Qin again!" ”

"I hope so." Fusu asked Meng Yi to go back to the big tent first, and he had to make another inspection to comfort the injured soldiers.

Meng Yi looked at this scene and said secretly: "Heifu handed over the matter of the labor army's pension to Gongzi, did he want him to be loved by the sergeants?" ”

The emperor has not set up the crown prince for a long time, and now the voice of Fusu is the highest, His Majesty asked him to be a supervisor this time, and he came to the battlefield in person, which is not without experience. Fusu Zhiren was not liked by the emperor and the ministers of the Legalists in the court, but in the army, he was close to the soldiers and the people, and regarded him as a child, but he was easily supported.

"Could it be that Heifu is also touched by Childe's benevolence?" Meng Yi fell into thought.

……

It was not easy to clean up the battlefield, in addition to reining in the Qin people who died in battle, it was also necessary to imprison the Huns who had time to escape in the future. After some calculations, it was found that the number of beheadings was staggering, the Qin army beheaded only 5,000 people, but the surrender reached more than 6,000 people......

The next day, Fu Zhi, the son of the good family of Beidi, returned, and brought back a thousand captives tied with ropes behind their horses.

Fu Zhi reported to Heifu: "Touman and the evacuated Xiongnu troops combined, there are 40,000 people, should be evacuated north along the east bank of the river, General Li ordered me to take the prisoners back first, he took 4,000 horsemen across the river, to the west bank of the river to continue the pursuit, and the boat division on the river also carried thousands of people forward, hoping to intercept the defeated ......army at the Woye ferry south of the Hetao."

That is also the place where Chen Ping crossed the river when exploring the Xiongnu, the Huns did not have a big boat, they could only rely on sheepskin rafts to swim across, and the water in other places was deep, but the fertile field was gentle and shallow. Jiuyuan and Toumancheng should have been beaten down by Meng Tian, and the Huns have a high probability of retreating to Hetao first, and then continue to go to Mobei, only hoping that Li Xin can do another miraculous feat, but with thousands of people to pursue the enemy's 40,000 cavalry, this kind of thing, only Li Xin dares to do.

He just wants to consolidate the results of the battle steadily, and then give Qin Shi Huang a beautiful good news.

"Since General Li can't go back for the time being, there is one thing that will be discussed between this captain and the two overseers."

Meng Yi and Fusu looked at Heifu, but heard him say: "The war is not over yet, we need to continue to march, occupy the entire Henan land, and relieve the Shangjun soldiers who have lost their baggage." In this battle, our army suffered 1,000 dead, more than 3,000 wounded, a total of 5,000 beheaded, and more than 7,000 Huns captured. It was difficult to supply food outside the fortress, and it was very necessary to feed the 7,000 Hun captives, and it would be a trouble if they rebelled and fled......"

Meng Yi had already guessed what Heifu wanted to say, and said: "The people have worked hard, and the grain that has finally been transported to the outside of the fortress cannot be wasted on the prisoners, how does General Wei want to deal with these 7,000 Huns?" ”

"It's very simple, it's nothing more than to release, or kill!"

Heifu smiled: "Rong Di jackals, don't kiss them, if you let them go, I'm afraid it won't be long before they gather under the banner of Shan Yu and fight for the north." Moreover, the dead and wounded soldiers need the first merit, and the military law says, 10,000 people are captains, and they can behead more than 8,000 people in the siege of the city, then they will be judged; If more than 2,000 people are beheaded in a field battle, it will be profitable. ”

"According to the law, those who make a profit will not only be promoted to the rank of captain, but also those who have meritorious service under their soldiers will also be rewarded. There are more than 30,000 soldiers in Longxi and Beidi today, but only 5,000 are beheaded, and more than 1,000 heads are needed to achieve profit. If there are more than 10,000 heads, they will be distributed to individuals, and the soldiers who died in battle can be promoted to two levels, and the rest of the soldiers can also be rewarded! ”

As if discussing what to eat for lunch, Heifu said lightly: "Therefore, I want to follow the example of Huayang and Changping!" ”

Needless to say, Changping didn't need to say, Bai Qi killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers for the same reason, and in that battle, the Qin army was meritorious, and almost all the land in the Qin State Pass was distributed.

The Battle of Huayang, after Bai Qi defeated the Zhao and Wei coalition forces, cut off the heads of 20,000 Zhao army prisoners and threw their corpses into the river, which was red for several days.

The Qin army did not allow the killing of good and risky merit, but the killing of prisoners was a different matter, although it was not explicitly encouraged in the law, and the generals were always blind to doing such things......

Meng Yi was older, so he was not surprised, but Fusu was stunned, which he had not considered before.

Heifu arched his hand and said: "This matter is very important, now that General Li is not here, Heifu can't make an arbitrary decision, so it needs the consent of the two prison guards before it can be executed!" ”

"Meng Jianjun and Gongzi, what do you think?"

He seemed to be asking the two of them at the same time, but his eyes were fixed on Fusu!

Heifu was instructed by Qin Shi Huang's secret words, and before the emperor left, the words of being a father, Heifu somewhat understood after becoming a father.

"I only hope that when Fusu returns, he will be less compassionate and compassionate, less hypocritical, and become a resolute and resolute son!"

So the question is, can he?
