The corpses of more than 36,000 fallen soldiers on both sides of the battlefield were dragged to the left and right sides of the battlefield by the soldiers of the Roman army, and all the intact weapons and equipment were gathered up and sent to the edge of the battlefield.

After that, the soldiers of the Roman army began to dig pits to bury the corpses, and it was impossible to bury all the more than 36,000 corpses here without hours of effort, and it was the first time that the Roman army had to bury so many corpses while clearing the battlefield.

If the corpses of these dead soldiers were not disposed of in time, they would soon breed a terrible plague in the scorching summer heat, and the plague that broke out in the Macedonian kingdom made Bai Feng, who was far away from the Greek peninsula, feel a cold sweat on his back.

Bai Feng didn't know if there was such a thing as a plague in this world, but with the mentality of being careful to sail a ship of ten thousand years, Bai Feng still asked the soldiers of the Roman army to bury all the corpses on the battlefield, as for the blood that stained the land red, it only took a heavy rain to restore this hellish battlefield into a wilderness.

At the same time that the Roman army was digging a pit to bury the corpses, Eggers also escorted the captured enemy soldiers back to the barracks, and with Eggers's army, more than 12,000 Tassia troops returned to the barracks, and they returned directly to the Tassia camp next to the barracks.

The work of clearing the battlefield continued until nightfall, during which Nelson had led his cavalry back to the barracks to bring lunch to the soldiers on the battlefield, and the soldiers who had eaten and drunk enough to continue their work.

After the entire battlefield was cleaned up, the exhausted soldiers dragged their tired bodies back to the barracks; in order to boost the morale of the soldiers, Bai Feng stayed with these soldiers during the time of cleaning up the battlefield until everyone returned to the barracks together.

The battle with the Eastern Alliance on the south bank of the Cangluo River was not completely over, and the victory in this battle was not a complete victory for the Roman army, and naturally there was no big celebration after returning to the barracks, and the tired soldiers just rested early.

The commanders of each legion first began to patrol the camp with their own personal guards, and then all came to Bai Feng's military tent, and Queen Boudicca and Yue'er, who came to the Tasya camp with Bai Feng, were not in the barracks, but were placed in the Tasya camp by Bai Feng.

It's not that they don't want to stay in the barracks with Bai Feng, it's just that Bai Feng feels that the barracks are full of men, and it is not appropriate to let the two of them stay in the big beauties who are like flowers and jades, so they are arranged in the Tasya camp.

Bai Feng, who had no appetite, casually took a few bites of dinner and thought about the next actions of his army in the military tent, and the other army commanders still had camp patrol work to do, Bai Feng could only wait for them in his own military camp.

After the five army commanders had come to the barracks, Bai Feng asked Maxi to invite the four generals of the Tasia army who were temporarily resting in the barracks next door.

Antio and his Governor's Guard, who almost died on the battlefield, were all seriously wounded, and even with the treatment of the field doctor Hua Mu, they did not have three to five days to recover, which shows the severity of their injuries.

Normally, the field doctor Hua Mu had a special potion that allowed the Roman soldiers who were wounded on the battlefield to quickly recover their combat effectiveness, which is why the number of wounded people was never reported in the battle statistics, because they were all healed.

After the four generals of the Tasia army also entered the military tent, the exhausted Bai Feng barely showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, and said to the generals present:

"Generals, today's battle with the enemy ended in a complete victory for our army, and at the cost of less than 20,000 soldiers, we have accomplished the feat of killing nearly 30,000 of the enemy and capturing more than 24,000 of the enemy!

The main general of the enemy's south-invading army was also killed in this battle, and we completely annihilated the main force of the enemy's south-invading army; this is the credit of all our officers and men in the desperate and bloody battle, and it is also the proof of the good command of your generals present.

However, merely annihilating the enemy's main force is not our ultimate goal, but completely annihilating all the enemy's southward invading troops is our goal; in order to accomplish this strategic goal, I have decided to personally lead the army to the north early tomorrow morning!

Considering that the three legions of the Tasia army, the Cheetah Legion, and the First Legion suffered heavy casualties in this battle, and the soldiers of these five legions will not be included in the expedition tomorrow morning, do you have any opinion on my arrangement?"

"Governor, are you too small in number to take only the three legions of the Eagle Legion, the Tiger Legion, and the Mobile Force? Although the enemy's main force has been annihilated by us, their remaining follow-up troops still have 30,000 infantry and 5,000 cavalry.

And our three legions, after the losses of today's battle, have a total strength of 20,000 men, and I think this military plan is still too risky to attack the enemy with 35,000 troops with an army of 20,000. ”

As soon as Bai Feng's words fell, the following Eggers raised objections; if Eggers had refuted his military plan so clearly before, Bai Feng would have subconsciously thought that Eggers had ulterior motives, but after what happened recently, everything was different.

Yesterday, when he was still in Rome, Eggers used his frankness to win Bai Feng's renewed trust on the number of Essini tribesmen's troops, and at this morning's military meeting, Eggers won Bai Feng's approval with his ability and experience.

Especially his performance on the battlefield today, Gamelios' reckless participation in the battle made his army fall into passivity for a while, and if it wasn't for Eggers' timely recovery of the battle, his own army might have been defeated before Nelson's cavalry joined the battle.

Whether it was Eggers' composure before leading the army into battle, or Eggers's swiftness when leading the army into battle, Bai Feng felt Eggers' ability and loyalty, as long as Eggers was willing to dedicate himself to the city of Rome, Bai Feng had no reason not to trust him.

"Yes, Governor. Before today's battle, we did not know what the combat effectiveness of this Eastern Alliance army really was, but after today's hard fighting, we realized that the enemy's combat strength was far stronger than we thought.

In terms of the strength of our army in Rome, the only ones that can go head-to-head with the enemy without being inferior are General Eggers' Eagle Legion and General Bazel's Tiger Legion, and even my First Legion, only the young soldiers can support the battle.

It is too dangerous for you to lead only 20,000 soldiers to meet their 30,000 enemy troops against such a formidable enemy, and even if you are not willing to take my First Legion with you, I myself will follow you with the General Guard to protect your safety!"
