Chapter 181: A Great Victory!
Yingchang, who was standing on the city wall watching the battle, saw this scene, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but wipe an arc, revealing a smile like a spring breeze, and he felt relaxed. Watermark Ad Test Watermark Ad Test
Daqin saved!
Yang Xiao also smiled, smiling like a flower, it can be said that he was smiling at the city, laughing at the country, but unfortunately Yingchang didn't see it.
"Your Majesty, we have finally won!"
"God has eyes, God has eyes!"
"After experiencing this calamity, Daqin will definitely soar into the sky!"
At this time, the ministers of the court climbed the city wall one after another, and they were all excited and tearful, the victory of this war finally made a boulder in their hearts fall, and they felt more relaxed, relaxed, and couldn't help but think about the battle from beginning to end.
When you think about it, it was not easy to win this war.
"Don't be too happy, this is just the beginning!" Ying Chang's face was straight, and his deep eyes were shining.
When the words fell, the ministers involuntarily quieted down, and their faces were heavy.
Yes, this is just the beginning, and the victory of this war can only represent the victory of Great Qin in the first stage, and then it will face a more severe situation.
"We'll win!"
"Long live Great Qin! Banzai! Hooray! ”
"Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty! ”
The Jin army was defeated, the old Qin people shouted excitedly, after shouting, some fathers hugged their children and cried, some families of three hugged their heads and cried, and some people hugged the corpses of their relatives and cried bitterly, crying heartbroken, crying unconscious.
Celebrate this hard-won victory with a cry!
The defeated Jin army shook its head and sighed bitterly, its face was like ashes, exuding an air of decadence.
Half an hour later, the Yangguan camp is handsome!
Win Chang is in a handsome position with high spirits, sharp eyes look around everyone, except for Luo Xing and Yang Xiao on both sides of the handsome tent, the ministers of civil and military affairs are standing on both sides with solemn expressions, the people in the handsome tent are silent, and the sound of needles falling can be heard quietly.
"Report!"
At this moment, a voice came from outside the account.
"Enter!" Yingchang's face was serious, and his tone was neither light nor serious.
When the words fell, I saw Luo Xing open the curtain of the tent, and walked into the tent without walking into the tent, and when he walked to the central position, he respectfully knelt down on one knee to make a report: "Your Majesty, the casualties and results have been counted, in this battle, our army lost 60,000 killed, 8,000 seriously wounded, and whispered 14,000, with a total of 82,000 casualties!" ”
"In this battle, our army killed 80,000 enemies, captured 200,000, and the rest of the Jin army took advantage of the chaos to escape, the last general calculated, the escaped Jin army was about 50,000, and it was no longer a threat to our Great Qin, at the beginning of the Yangguan Defense War, our army killed a total of 250,000 enemies, captured nearly 500,000 sets of sophisticated weapons and armor, 40,000 war horses, and 180,000 stones of grain, I believe that after this battle, the Jin Empire will be difficult to attack Qin within five years!"
"Two hundred thousand captives..."Ying Chang frowned slightly, and his brows fell into deep thought.
200,000 captives is a bit much, you have to consume one or two thousand stone of grain a day, ten days is one or two thousand, one hundred days is one hundred or two hundred thousand, and a year is five or six hundred thousand.
If it was before the war, Daqin could barely feed these prisoners, but because of this war, a large amount of fertile land in Shangyang County was abandoned because no one cultivated it, and it was inevitable that the grain output of Shangyang County would drop sharply this year, and the people of Shangyang County would face hunger, and the imperial court must be responsible for the people of Shangyang County.
Although after this battle, the population of Shangyang County decreased sharply, there are still nearly 100,000 old, weak, sick and disabled, plus 200,000 prisoners and 30,000 prisoners who are repairing the canal in Xianyang, nearly 400,000 people, that is to say, the Great Qin Imperial Court has to bear the rations of 400,000 people!
Jiang Haiyou, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, stepped forward and said with a respectful expression: "Your Majesty, the 200,000 captives must be left behind, and they must not be let go!" ”
The canals and road construction plans require people, and 200,000 laborers cannot be wasted.
"How much grain is left in the treasury?" Ying Chang looked at Jia Luo, the head of the household department, and asked, when Jia Luo heard this, he immediately took a small step forward, and replied with a solemn face: "Your Majesty, not counting the capture and support of the Qi Empire, the treasury has 3.2 million stone of grain, if you add the capture and the support of the Qi Empire, it will be about 3.6 million stone!" ”
"I know, these 200,000 captives will be handed over to the Ministry of Industry after the war!" As soon as Yingchang heard the numbers, he chose to stay.
Of course, Ying Chang didn't want to let go of the prisoners, and if there wasn't enough food, he planned to kill half of the prisoners of war.
But Jiang Haiyou didn't know what he thought, Jiang Haiyou exhaled heavily when he heard that the prisoner was handed over to the Ministry of Industry.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!"
At this time, Prime Minister Chang Zifei took a small step forward, and bent down expressionlessly to make a report.
"Quasi-play!" Yingchang replied indifferently.
"Your Majesty, what the minister wants to ask, how should Your Majesty deal with the old Qin people who participated in the war in Yangguan?" Chang Zifei asked with a respectful expression.
This is a point of inquiry.
The civil and military officials all fell into deep thought, thinking about how to deal with the old Qin people in Yangguan.
"What do you recommend?" Win Chang and throw the question to Chang Zifei again.
"The minister suggests, put it!" Chang Zifei replied without thinking.
As soon as the words fell, Yang Ze, the secretary of the Ministry of War, immediately frowned, and said with hesitation: "Prime Minister, you have to think clearly, if the old Qin people of Yangguan are released, who will watch the 200,000 captives?" Who guards the Yangguan? Although His Majesty has already transferred 50,000 Yang family troops from Xiguan to come to support, it will take at least two months for the Yang family army to arrive! ”
"Within two months, everything can happen, including the comeback of the Jin army, Your Majesty, the minister suggests, wait for the Yang family army to come, and then let the old Qin people of Yangguan go home!" Yang Ze proposed in the face of Ying Chang.
"Your Majesty, the ministers are attached to the Prime Minister's intentions, there is one reason, most of the old Qin people are dragging their families to Yangguan to participate in the war, this battle, the old Qin people are the dead sons of the dead sons, the dead fathers of the dead fathers, the dead mothers of the dead mothers, now that the Jin army has been defeated, this battle is over, what the old Qin people want to do most now is nothing more than to take the corpses of their best friends and relatives home for burial!"
"Our imperial court has already treated the old Qin people too badly, and we can't help but satisfy their desire to bring the corpses of their best friends and relatives home..."
"Your Majesty, the ministers are attached to Lord Yang's intentions, 200,000 captives must not be lost, these 200,000 captives are now war horses tied to the reins, if no one is tamed, they will be like unleashed war horses galloping wantonly, all the victories that my Great Qin has won with great difficulty will be in vain, please Your Majesty take the overall situation first!" Tobe Shangshu Jia Luo stood up with a solemn expression and said.
"Your Majesty, the ministers attach the will of Lord Yang and focus on the overall situation!"
