The war with the northern tribes lasted for half a month, and the war was only tragic, not only the reborn Xiao Yiran had not experienced it, but even the clansmen of the Dragon Clan had not experienced it. Compared to the previous battles in the Longshan Station and the Mengyue River Station, the subjugation of the three clans of the Eagle, Tiger, Snake and Turtle, and the conquest of the Elephant Clan, and the nine ethnic groups in the north at that time, it is simply not the same.

The number of 1,000 and 17 people killed in the battle is almost 10% of the dragon clansmen. In almost every family of the dragon family, one or two people have been killed. The pain of losing a loved one spread throughout the community in an instant. In order to appease the clansmen, Xiao Yiran ordered Xuanyi's Ministry of Finance to run at full capacity.

First of all, the corpses of all the dead soldiers were collected together, and after cleaning up the corpses of the dead soldiers, all the clansmen were gathered and a huge memorial ceremony was held for the dead soldiers. At the same time, in the name of the Ministry of Finance, Xuan Yi issued a martyr's certificate to the family of each deceased soldier. The family of the deceased soldier can go to the Ministry of Finance to receive a pension, and in the future, with this certificate, he can obtain relevant preferential policies within the clan.

After the memorial ceremony, Xiao Yiran chose the jungle southwest of the Wangshan station as a public cemetery, and buried all the bodies of the dead soldiers in it. More than 3,800 soldiers of the northern tribes who were killed, were also buried there.

In this battle, the ten personal guards of Xiao Yiran, who died in battle, were no exception and were buried in the same place with ordinary soldiers. It's just that in front of the tomb of each personal guard, Xiao Yiran ordered someone to make a wooden tombstone. It is engraved with the words: "The tomb wife of the deceased husband Wei Wu (Wei Quan, Wei Kun, Wei Yu, Satellite, Wei Ri, Wei Fu, Wei Shou, Wei Zai, Wei Fei) Xiao Yiran, Xiao Ming's daughter, Xiao Yue, Xiao Xin, stand together".

At the same time as the Wangshan garrison buried the remains of the dead soldiers, Xiang Lin and others led the men and horses to cross the river and go straight to the station of the northern ethnic groups. Although there are only more than 500 infantry and 95 cavalry led by Xiang Lin, there are not many soldiers from the northern tribes who have fled, but at this time, the two sides have changed positions, the dragon clan is the victorious division, and the other party is the fleeing division, and the difference in numbers is no longer a problem.

It didn't take much effort to surround the garrisons of the northern tribes, except for a small number of soldiers and the steppes where the tribesmen fled to the west, the remaining soldiers and clansmen of the northern tribes quickly chose to annex. Xiang Lin was stationed on the spot, guarding the soldiers and clansmen who had just returned to obedience, and while letting the soldiers take turns to rest, he sent people to the Wangshan garrison to ask the emperor for his next move.

It was Wei Long and Wei Shuang who came to deliver the news.

"Emperor, except for a few who fled to the western grasslands, all the nearly 30,000 people in the north have chosen to join the Dragon Clan, and I asked Lord Lin for us to ask the emperor what to do next."

Xiao Yiran was not quite easy, although she had also thought about how to deal with things once she conquered the northern tribes, but she didn't have a detailed plan yet.

"Have the generals of the northern tribes who led their troops to attack the Wangshan garrison this time been caught?"

"Caught, named River, a man under thirty years old."

"Have you ever asked him, including concealing the number of soldiers and keeping people to stop Xuan Liang, etc., all arranged by this person?"

"I've asked, it's all his opinion."

"What about the chiefs of the northern tribes?"

"I also caught it, it was an old woman in her forties, named Chuan."

"She's willing to submit to the Dragons too?"

"Yes."

"Then whose attention is it to attack the Wangshan garrison this time, is it He, or their patriarch?"

"According to the confession of the two, their patriarch did not want to attack the Wangshan garrison, and it was Heyi who strongly advocated and sent troops."

"What about the purpose of the river?"

"According to He, he wants to build a large, powerful race."

Xiao Yiran thought for a while, and then said to Wei Long and Wei Shuang:

"Go back to Xianglin and send all the soldiers of the northern tribes, including the wounded, here. For the time being, the tribesmen of the northern tribes still live in their stations, and are guarded by the Xianglin people.

As for the river and their patriarch, Chuan, they have also sent men to escort them, and I will meet them.

Also, let Lin Zhan come back, Wei Long and Wei Tian will stay behind to assist Lin and deliver the news over there at any time. ”

Sending Wei Long and Wei Shuang away, Xiao Yiran ordered someone to pass Xuan Yi and the injured Li Yu. After telling Sù Xuanyi and Li Yu the news brought by Wei Long and the others, Xiao Yiran asked:

"Tell me what you think, what should be done with the submissive northern tribes?"

"Emperor, after losing nearly 10,000 soldiers to the northern tribes, there are still 30,000 tribesmen, if they all move here, I'm afraid it is unrealistic. If they are still allowed to stay in their original positions, they will have to be managed by competent men. ”

Li Yu said first.

"If the emperor is willing, Xiao An is willing to go and manage the northern tribes."

Xiao An, who was on the side, took the initiative to ask for his life.

"Longshan is as important as Mengyuehe, if you leave, who will replace you?"

"Every qiē there has been regularized, as long as the clans in the southwest who are good at raising Gu do not come to harass, it is enough to send one or two patriarchs of the original Eagle, Snake and Tiger clans in the Council of Elders."

After listening to Xiao An's words, Xiao Yiran looked up at Xuan Yi, if Xuan Yun could walk away, he would be the most suitable candidate, but the Ministry of Health still had to count on Xuan Yun. As for sending the original patriarch of the Eagle, Snake and Tiger clans over, Xiao Yiran was not very relieved.

"Emperor, you can not send people to Longshan and Mengyue River for the time being, as long as Cao Ying temporarily manages it, it is not impossible."

"After this battle, with the addition of soldiers from the northern tribes, our soldier team has expanded a lot, and I originally wanted to send someone to replace Cao Ying."

For Li Yu's construction, Xiao Yiran also felt that it was not very suitable.

"Emperor, why don't you go to the northern tribe station?"

"You can't do it, the Ministry of Finance is all in charge of you."

Several people deliberated for a long time, but did not make a final decision. At this time, Xuanyun came to report:

"Emperor, Xuan Liang is awake."

When Xiao Yiran heard this, he immediately went to visit Xuan Liang, since Xuan Liang was rescued by Wei Long, Xiao Yiran only visited once just after the end of the war, and Xuan Liang had not woken up at that time.

"Xuan Liang, how are you feeling?"

"Emperor, I feel better."

Although Xuan Liang was very weak, he still tried to squeeze out a smile when he saw the queen.

"Take good care of your injuries, the northern tribes have been defeated by us, and at the same time, they have also chosen to return to the Dragon Clan, you have made the greatest contribution in this battle."

Xiao Yiran said not purely to comfort Xuan Liang, if it wasn't for Xuan Liang dragging the other party's more than 3,000 soldiers and letting more than 3,000 people come in time to reinforce, the consequences would be unimaginable.
