Chapter 109: The Battle of Yangguan (End)

The Jin army ran very fast, the Qin army chased fast, most of the Hedong army were foot soldiers, the cavalry was only a decimal, and the Qin army was also a foot soldier, the cavalry was only two thousand, all of them were two-legged, no one was faster, of course, the speed of the Jin soldiers who ran for their lives was naturally faster, but the Qin soldiers who were not slow for the sake of their military exploits were not slow!

In the eyes of the Qin army, the Jin army running in front was a frightened four-legged sheep, killing red eyes, and many Jin soldiers were easily tripped by small stones on the ground because their hearts were full of fear, and once they tripped, they only had two roads, death and surrender!

Those who are killed and have broken their courage will naturally choose to surrender to save their lives!

Time passed slowly, and many Qin soldiers could not chase because they had to stare at the Jin army's descendants, so they could only wait in place, so the Qin army chasing the Jin army became fewer and fewer, from nearly 30,000 to 20,000... Ten thousand... Eight thousand... Five thousand.

If someone looks down from the sky, they will see an interesting scene, that is, an army of several thousand people runs with an army of fifty or sixty thousand, like chasing ducks.

Bai Qi's dictionary doesn't seem to have four words for poor Kou Mo to chase, chasing the Jin army all the way, chasing wherever he goes, while Li Qi is running all the way, where he can run.

In half a day, the Qin army chased ten miles before stopping!

In these ten miles of road, the Qin army expanded its rich results, forcing nearly 20,000 Jin soldiers to surrender, Bai Qi returned with the soldiers and the Qin army, and when he returned to the main battlefield, the sun was about to set.

"Martial King, you are really amazing!"

Luo Xing looked at Bai Qi with admiration, today's battle really refreshed his worldview, and Luo Xing also believed that after this battle, the name of King Bai Qi of Qin Wu completely became famous in Kyushu, and this battle will also become the most classic battle of winning more with less.

"There aren't enough cavalry, otherwise none of them will be able to escape!" Bai Qi said disapprovingly.

In the original plan, he wanted to completely annihilate the Hedong Army, but the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, so that the Jin army ran away by more than 40,000.

Luo Xing was stunned for a while, before this battle, he must have thought that Bai Qi was talking big, but now, it is absolutely the truth, if there are enough cavalry, none of the 100,000 Hedong troops can escape, and Li Qi, the strongest man in the Jin Empire, is just a lost dog!

"Clean up the battlefield, count casualties and results!" Bai Qi indifferently ordered the military order.

"Yes!" Luo Xing's respectful compilation should be shouted.

Next, Luo Xing ordered the lieutenants at all levels to count the casualties, and then began to clean up the battlefield, and tens of thousands of Jin prisoners of war were also forced to work, responsible for digging pits and burying their bodies.

Some Jin troops are a little stunned now, and they don't know how to fight like this, and they say that they will kill the enemy and be knighted? How did I become a prisoner of war?

At night, the casualties and results were finally counted.

In this battle, the Qin army suffered 18,000 casualties, killed 20,000 enemies, and captured 40,000, with a battle loss ratio of 1 to 3.

If this Qin army is all veterans who have been on the battlefield before, the battle damage may be broken by half, and the killing of the enemy will also increase by half, this is the difference between recruits and veterans, the morale of recruits is strong, but if they have not seen blood, they have not seen blood.

But the soldiers who survived this battle are veterans who have seen blood, and they have become elites!

After the battlefield was cleaned up, the Qin army escorted the prisoners of war back to the customs overnight, and it has to be said that the bodies of the Qin soldiers were also buried on this land.

Four days in a flash, on May 10 of the eighth year of Shengqin, Xianyang City, the Imperial Palace, and the Qilin Palace!

In the solemn treasure hall, the civil and military officials stood on one side, and on the dragon chair, sat the most powerful man in the Great Qin Empire, although this man was only fourteen years old, but in terms of the majesty of the emperor, countless elderly emperors were slightly inferior.

Ying Chang did not wear a flat crown today, only wore a black dragon hairpin crown, black and soft long hair hanging down his shoulders, that is, he did not lose the majesty of the emperor and the temperament of a handsome son, in terms of appearance, the men of the entire Kyushu countries should bow their heads, it is really too handsome.

Yushu is in the wind and personable, which means that it is to win often!

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!"

Prime Minister Chang Zifei took a small step forward, and bent down to make a report on Ying Chang with a respectful expression.

"Quasi-play!" Ying Chang replied indifferently.

"Your Majesty, the imperial examination has completed the hospital examination, the township examination, the general examination, and only the last palace examination is left, I don't know what date Your Majesty has set for the palace examination?" Chang Zifei replied with a respectful face.

Since the opening of the imperial examination, only two or three months have passed, if according to the process, a set of imperial examinations will take two years, but now in the special period, some unimportant processes have been temporarily abolished, this is what Chang Zifei meant, and Ying Chang also agreed.

"The tributes from all over the country have already arrived in Xianyang?" Win Chang asked out loud.

"Back to Your Majesty, I have been waiting in Xianyang for a long time!" Chang Zifei bent down and replied.

Ying Chang was silent for a while, thinking about whether he had time in the past few days, and after making sure that he would have time tomorrow, Ying Chang said loudly: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, just tomorrow, let the tributes everywhere prepare well!" ”

"Minister, obey!" Chang Zifei responded with a solemn and respectful expression, and after he finished, he returned to his position.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!"

As soon as Chang Zifei stepped back, Jiang Haiyou, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, took a step to the right, and bent down to Ying Chang with a respectful face to make a report.

"Quasi-play!" Win Chang still responded indifferently.

"Your Majesty, the Xianyang City Canal Plan has been completed, and the speed is slow, please order Your Majesty to increase labor!" Jiang Haiyou said with a somewhat apprehensive expression, worried that Ying Chang would refuse this request.

Chang Zifei frowned slightly, glanced at Ying Chang, who didn't speak, and then spoke: "Now that the fertile land has been cultivated, and it has rained heavily recently, the role of the canal is not big for the time being, but after the autumn harvest, the labor force will be relieved and expanded!" ”

"Prime Minister, it is precisely because the fertile land has been cultivated now that the lower officials will ask for orders to increase manpower, and the canal will be completed as soon as possible, and I Daqin will be able to win more than 100,000 acres of fertile land, with no disadvantages!" Jiang Haiyou still insisted on what he meant.

Now there are still two months before the autumn harvest, and within two months, the people all over Daqin are idle, and it is a pity not to use them to work.

"What is the current population of my Great Qin? What is the proportion of each age group? How much does my Great Qin Liangtian have? Ying Chang asked in vain, some suspicion that he could provoke the topic.

To be honest, Ying Chang doesn't know the population of the Great Qin Empire now, let alone how much fertile land there is, only probably, after all, he was too busy before, and officials at all levels were too busy to upload these news to the imperial court in time, and at that time, Hubu Shangshu Jia Luo also went to the Qiang people to trade, and there were no statistics at all.
