"How many casualties were there in this battle?" After staying away from the battlefield, Di Lian, who ordered to suspend on-the-spot repairs, asked with a gloomy face.

"More than twenty-four thousand. All the divisions were damaged in battle, and the Blue Wolf Division and the Cen Mu Division were almost completely wiped out. Mao Ling, who had just finished counting the casualties, gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.

He did not distinguish between the number of seriously wounded and the number of killed, because for the Northern Huns, who had poor medical conditions, there was no difference between the two.

In the deathly silence, Dilian's hand holding the horsewhip clenched fiercely, and the bulging green tendons on the back of his hand were clearly visible.

The fierceness of this battle far exceeded his expectations, he thought it was just a performance, but he didn't expect the Han people to be so ruthless. The casualties in this battle were more tragic than those caused by the previous full-scale war with Kushan. In terms of the originally small family background of the Xiongnu in the north, the more than 20,000 casualties were already extremely heavy.

The war horse under the crotch seemed to feel the restlessness of the owner's emotions.

"What about the seriously wounded?"

"I've already freed them all." Mao Ling said in a deep voice.

"It is also a blessing for them to return to the embrace of immortality as soon as possible. It's just a pity that we can't die yet. ”

"Collect their corpses and war horse armor, and go back to bury them."

"Yes."

"The casualties of the Han army in this battle are estimated to be less than 20,000, and the combat power is really terrifying." Mao Ling said.

Then he pulled out a ring-headed knife from his waist and handed it to Di Lian: "Shan Yu, this is a weapon that my tribesmen have taken from the Han army and has not yet been broken. ”

Di connected the knife, and after a cursory glance, he felt that it was sharp. The bright blade and exquisite patterns all confirm that this is a well-made treasure knife.

"The quality of the ring-headed knife captured by our department is not below this knife, and it can be basically determined that this is an ordinary standard weapon in the Han army."

"I tried it, and slashed it with a knife. Our ordinary swords had to be broken six or seven to break them, and in the case of Guishan's standard long swords, three or four were needed. The sharpness and toughness of this knife are far beyond my imagination. The reason why we suffered so many casualties in this battle was that the Han army was too well-equipped, not because our people were weak. The Han soldiers were all armored and well-equipped, and this battle was too unfair to our army. Mao Ling said hatefully.

"Nothing unfair." Di Lian said lightly, and casually withdrew the ring head knife from the scabbard and pinned it to his waist.

"It's not a day or two for the Han people to bully us with the advantage of their armor. But why is the Han army so strong today? Such a sword turned out to be nothing more than standard equipment, and everyone wore armor. They should have just come out of the chaos, and it doesn't make sense that the armor should be so rich. ”

Such sophisticated equipment would still be understandable if it was placed in the hands of the former Han Central Army. However, the tens of thousands of soldiers who came here were all equipped like this, which was simply unacceptable to Dilian.

"Shan Yu, if we can't solve the gap between the soldiers and armor, I'm afraid it will be ...... to fight the Han army in the future."

"The blood of the Han army is not as good as Guishuang, and if you want to capture it, I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses. Look for an opportunity to see if you can open a gap among the Han people and purchase some armor. Dilian said.

"But we can't put all our hopes on that. Before, we attacked Guishan and plundered a lot of craftsmen and cities, and don't ignore it, be sure to protect it, I have a lot of use. ”

Mao Ling nodded. As warlike nomads, they know better than anyone the importance of weapons, which can almost determine the outcome of a battle. When the combat strength of the two sides is not much different, the blades are swinging at each other, the blades are constantly colliding, and the ending of the side that breaks first is almost self-evident.

But it's a pity that the talents of the Northern Huns are all focused on fighting and riding horses, and they are really not good at the art of forging. Although there is also the art of forging in the clan, it is possible to craft some weapons, even a few of the more sophisticated ones. But the yield and efficiency really can't bear to look at it directly.

If you want to build a large number of sophisticated weapons, you have to get them from enemies such as the Kushan and Han Chinese.

"Rest assured." Mao Ling said.

"Hehe, I'm afraid the situation of this battle will be reported to those people in Guishan in a few days. The result of this battle is probably such a kind of subjugation for the Han people, and it is really ridiculous to be invincible and undefeated. Dillian laughed to himself.

From the bright side, this battle is indeed undefeated and undefeated, both sides are defeated, the losses are almost the same, and the strength of the two is undoubtedly displayed.

The strength of the Han army's frontal battle, even in the face of the Northern Xiongnu on the grassland, was fearless, incomparable. And the Northern Xiongnu, too, completely crushed the Han army in terms of mobile warfare and guerrilla warfare.

"In the future, on the grassland, I am afraid that there will inevitably be waves. The tribes must next relocate the layout and protect the royal court well, and must not leave loopholes and repeat the mistakes of the past. ”

"Don't worry, we will be extra careful, and we won't give the Han people a chance."

"Shan Yu, one of the enemy soldiers had to be killed." When in the musk road.

"Are you talking about the kid you fought with?"

"Not bad. This son's talent potential is only seen in his life, if he is not killed at a young age, he is afraid that he will be sick again. When Yu Musk said with murderous intent.

"This person, for the time being, can't move. And, as far as you can see from the situation you fought with, it will not be easy to destroy this son. Dilian said.

Dilian sighed in his heart. He couldn't see Sun Ce's potential, but the current Northern Xiongnu couldn't bear Yuan Shu's anger.

He had heard of the temper of His Majesty the Emperor of Great Chu, and he was as strong as the original Emperor Wu. Once he touched his bottom line, the overthrow of the Northern Xiongnu was only within a snap of his fingers.

"And it's not an opportunity for you." Di Lian's gaze was firmly fixed on Dang Yu Musk: "You know better than me how the current Sky Wolf Ride compares to the original. In the past, there was no opponent, and the Sky Wolf Rider could only stop there. But now, with such an opponent, you should also be sober. ”

Facing Di Lian's gaze, the arrogant Dang Yu Mu unconsciously held the knife on his waist, his head sank slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Shan Yu rest assured." The next time I meet again, it will prove that the wolf rider is the strongest in the world. But ......"

"If it's on a frontal battlefield, and I kill it by mistake, please don't blame it."

Seeing that Yu Musk was still unruly, Di Lian sighed lightly in his heart: "Okay, if you can really kill him head-on, I will never pursue it." ”

"As long as you don't release the water, someone will kill it." When Yu Musk looked directly at Di Lian's gaze, he said.

As the last hole card of the Northern Huns who were close to the empire at their peak, although he commanded it, if they wanted to really exert their full strength, they also needed the support of Di Lian, a single Yu. In the previous battle, Di Lian obviously had scruples and did not completely let go of the Sky Wolf Rider's hands and feet.

The newborn calf's overlord iron horse and tiger and leopard ride are indeed too immature compared to the wolf ride, how can the trump card created at the peak of the Northern Xiongnu be so simple. If it weren't for Di Lian's restrictions, Yu Musk would have absolute confidence to directly cripple these two army soul legions at the beginning, not giving them the opportunity to grow and awaken in the future.

Di Lian's face remained unchanged, he couldn't feel the resentment in Dang Yu Musk's heart, but he was Shan Yu, and he had to look at the problem from the perspective of the overall situation.

"This time is the exception, next time I will not limit you again, I hope you will not let me down."

"I will."
