Clearing the battlefield is hard work.

Because it's a big scuffle of hundreds of thousands of people.

Although the Ming army won a complete victory, it also paid a certain number of casualties.

However, compared to the total annihilation of the Qing army, it is indeed nothing.

What's even more gratifying is that Shang Kexi, Geng Jimao, and Shi Lang were all captured alive.

Li Laiheng and the others did not dare to make an arbitrary decision, so they immediately sent people to escort the three thieves to Nanjing and hand them over to the Son of Heaven for ruling.

Everyone knew very well that after this battle, the stumbling blocks of the Ming Northern Expedition were removed.

Li Laiheng even wanted to take advantage of the victory to march into Fujian and Guangdong to recover the two places.

Of course, all this has to wait for the will of the Son of Heaven.

The example of Feng Shuangli's demotion was there, and they didn't want to follow in Feng Shuangli's footsteps.

Besides, it's not a bad idea to take a break. The soldiers had just experienced a bloody battle, and they needed time to recover.

After all, everyone can fight a tough battle in one breath, but you can't fight several hard battles in a row in one breath.

Li Laiheng is still very satisfied with the spirit shown by the soldiers in this battle, and the more the soldiers fight, the more confident they become, and many actions that they did not dare to do a few years ago are now captured, completely by instinct.

If this momentum continues, the Northern Expedition should not be too much of a problem.

Today, the Son is truly a holy lord.

Li Laiheng sighed secretly in his heart.

Daming is located in the southwest corner and can turn the tables in adversity, which is absolutely inseparable from the command of the Son of Heaven.

Without the Son of Heaven's plan to attack Huguang, now Daming is still in a state of lingering!

Li Laiheng is now very glad that the decision made at that time to resist the Qing Dynasty was made by Lianming.

After all, no one wants to be an opponent with such a wise and martial emperor.

He only hoped that with these hard deeds, he would one day be able to write his name into the Lingyan Pavilion and go down in history.

As for Yuan Zongdi, he has some regrets.

Although he perfectly acted as a bait in this battle, luring Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao to attack the city, he did not perform as brilliantly as Li Laiheng.

His Majesty the Emperor will definitely be rewarded for meritorious deeds. In this way, Yuan Zongdi suffered a loss.

But there was no way, all the plans were made in advance, and Yuan Zongdi agreed at that time.

It was definitely impossible to hope that His Majesty the Emperor would have a bowl of water, and Yuan Zongdi only hoped that the brothers would leave him a little soup to drink when they ate meat.

Daniel Zhang seemed very righteous and said that he would say a few good words for Yuan Zongdi in the song. After all, if Yuan Zongdi hadn't seduced him so thoroughly, Geng Jimao and Shang Kexi would not have taken the bait so easily.

The Ming army was able to win the two of them so easily, and Yuan Zongdi's efforts were inseparable.

Yuan Zongdi didn't believe much in this.

After all, Daniel Zhang is from Xiying, and the credit of his own camp is not enough, how can he think of Yuan Zongdi, a foreign family.

Just listen to this kind of scene.

According to the regulations of the Ministry of War, after the war, military merits are approved according to the first rank.

Therefore, the most important thing the Ming army did after the war was to count the heads, and then send people to Nanjing after some simple embalming treatments.

Due to the fact that there were too many Qing soldiers killed, this project can be described as huge.

Watching the heads being piled up on the ox cart and pulled away, it was indeed very shocking.

After that, it was time to dig mass graves to bury the bodies of the Qing soldiers.

In order to prevent the emergence of epidemics, timely disposal of these corpses is a must.

Lee Rae-hyung didn't want to cause a catastrophe.

...

...

Jiangxi is not far from Nanjing, and because the soldiers who reported the victory were one man and three horses on alternate horses, they quickly brought the news to Nanjing.

Zhu Youlang was ecstatic when he learned of Jiangxi's victory.

Geng Jimao and Shang Kexi, sure enough, let me calculate it.

The people's hearts are not enough to swallow the elephant, so the two of you also want to compete with Daming for the world.

It's good that the world didn't fight for it, so I put myself in.

But for Da Ming, this can definitely be regarded as a good thing.

If it is really as stated in the report, Li Laiheng and others completely annihilated the Qing army, then the Ming Dynasty can take advantage of this wave of momentum to go south to seize Fujian and Guangdong.

Of course, everything has to wait for the head to be transported to Nanjing for inventory.

Can't Li Laiheng, whatever they say, Zhu Youlang will believe anything.

Besides, the soldiers also need some time to rest, just in time to adjust their condition.

According to the report, Shang Kexi, Geng Jimao, Shi Lang and others were also captured alive and were on their way to Nanjing.

Zhu Youlang was very satisfied with this.

If you let any of them go, you will have endless consequences.

After all, the three of them have considerable appeal, and after returning to Guangdong and Fujian, they can pull up an army with a casual shout.

But now it's different, even if Guangdong and Fujian can still mobilize troops, but those who don't have a leader are scattered.

As long as the Ming army is pressed to the top, it should be easy to take.

Whew, Zhu Youlang let out a long breath, and it was really not easy to say secretly.

To be able to get to this day, Zhu Youlang did not expect it.

He originally thought that he was just trying to save some Han family sons and daughters as much as possible, so that Daming's clothes would not be lost in the long river of history.

Who would have wanted to work hard to change the situation in the world, and even have the momentum to dominate the world.

It's really hard.

After the First World War, the Ming Dynasty was like a rainbow, and it did have the capital to dominate the world.

As long as he takes it steadily step by step, Zhu Youlang feels that the opportunity is very great.

During these days, he had been discussing the Northern Expedition with Zhang Huangyan and others, and drew up a very detailed plan.

In Zhu Youlang's plan, the Northern Expedition was divided into three main directions.

One of them was to attack Hanzhong from Sichuan, and then march into Guanzhong.

The other is to attack Henan from Huguang. This side was also the main direction of the Ming army's offensive.

In addition, it is to attack Shandong from Huai'an and Xuzhou.

The Qing army hoarded heavy troops in Shandong, and with Sukh Saha in charge, it can be said that it was the most difficult journey.

However, Zhu Youlang will also give enough resources, not afraid that the bones will be difficult to gnaw, as long as the soldiers use their lives, no matter how hard the bones can be gnawed.

As for the sea route, it can only be used as an auxiliary, not as the main direction of attack.

From time to time, the navy division attacks and harasses the coastal areas of Shandong and even Tianjin, which may have an unexpected effect.

In addition to these, there is actually a hidden move.

As a vassal state, Korea had sent an envoy to Zhu Youlang to show his loyalty and say that he would attack Liaodong at an appropriate time to gain space for the Ming army and attract the attention of the Qing army.

When is the right time?

Naturally, it was the time when the Ming army launched a large-scale northern expedition.

Since there is a little brother from North Korea scrambling to be a licking dog, Zhu Youlang is naturally happy to see it.

The only hidden danger is probably Wu Sangui.

This person has not been inconspicuous since he captured Yunnan, but Zhu Youlang knows very well that Wu Sangui is a ruthless character.

Although he is not as impulsive as Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao, he will definitely bite Da Ming without hesitation when he has the opportunity.
