The Tartar soldiers may really suffer a big loss, Dolgon gave an order, and the Tartar soldiers withdrew one after another, so that the Xingtian Army no longer had any obstacles, and returned to the side of the Xiaozhang River smoothly step by step, and only here did everyone understand why the Tartar soldiers withdrew so panicked, at a glance, on the east side of the stone bridge of the Xiaozhang River, there were at least hundreds of corpses of the Tartar soldiers and the wounded, and most of the corpses of these Tartars were incomplete, and they were ploughed by cannons at a glance. And the east bank of the Xiaozhang River is full of some potted craters, some shells rolled far away before stopping, and the stone bridge was densely covered with craters made by the Xingtian Army's birds, and a thick layer of Tartar blood was condensed on the bridge deck, and some sappers were holding shovels to remove the blood ice formed by these dirty blood, and the thistles they scattered on the bridge deck were recovered, and a large number of bloody corpses of the Tartar soldiers were also stacked on the west side of the bridge. Some of the newly dead Tartar soldiers had not yet cooled down, the blood that flowed out was still hot in the cold wind, and the air was filled with an extremely strong smell of gunsmoke mixed with blood, and even the corpses of some Tartars and horses floated in the river, and the ice surface of the upstream and downstream was shattered, and the river water also showed a single red.

At this time, they realized that the original fight here was much better than they thought, and they couldn't help laughing, under the command of the officers, leaving a battalion in line to prevent the Tartars from attacking behind, and the rest of the men and horses immediately dispersed into the battlefield on the east bank and began to clean up the battlefield. Even the boots were ripped off and taken away.

This time with the action of the Xingtian Army, it was an eye-opener for the hundreds of rescued Xuan soldiers, and the same people entered the battlefield with less than 5,000 people, but the 5,000 people of the Xingtian Army compared with them, it really made them ashamed, looking at the generals of the Xingtian Army, all of them are physically strong, and whoever is placed in the official army is a good soldier of the first class, and the discipline of the Xingtian Army is strict, and the military appearance is clean, which is also the only thing they have seen in their lives, and the fighting spirit on the battlefield is high, and they don't know how much more than them, Moreover, their tactics are peculiar, they mostly use the "bird guns" that are regarded as chicken ribs by the officials and soldiers, and they are equipped with spears, but these two weapons have exerted great lethality in the hands of the Xingtian Army.

After the Xingtian Army entered the battlefield, it continuously broke through the interception of the Tartar soldiers, converged with their officers and soldiers, and then dared to rest on the battlefield in a big way, and finally fought all the way out of the battlefield, and was stunned to be regarded by them as the devilish Tartar soldiers, and finally forced the Tartar soldiers to retreat by themselves, so they entered the battlefield completely, and withdrew from the battlefield with them completely. However, the number of Tartars killed and wounded far exceeded the price they paid several times or even ten times.

These officers and soldiers are really convinced, and they are completely convinced in the eyes of the heart, no wonder there are rumors circulating everywhere that the Xingtian Army is invincible in the world, they didn't fight with the Xingtian Army before, they don't know how powerful the Xingtian Army is, thinking that they are the strongest soldiers in the world, but today compared with the Xingtian Army, they are embarrassed in addition to shame, and people are really ashamed compared to people!

Looking at the corpses of the Tartar soldiers all over the ground, the officers and soldiers were envious, if the heads of these Tartar soldiers were to be cut back, I don't know how much credit it would be! It is a sure thing to be promoted and make a fortune, but it is a pity that none of these Tartar soldiers were killed by them, and they have to take refuge under the wings of the Xingtian Army in order to escape, many officers and soldiers are really discouraged when they arrive here, and they secretly shake their heads.

Some officers and soldiers immediately made up their minds, saying that they would not do anything for the imperial court, and that they would rather follow the Xingtian Army as a miscellaneous servant in the future, because they felt that their faces were bright, and they were betrayed by the imperial court like this.

The sky soon darkened, and the generals of the Xingtian Army, who had fought fiercely for a day, returned to the camp, the tents were unloaded by the soldiers, the wounded were placed in the medical camp of the army, and the bodies of the soldiers who died in the battle were also collected and parked in their exclusive places.

Although there were soldiers of the Xingtian Army who died on the battlefield on this day, they were stunned and did not leave the bodies of a few soldiers who died in battle, and basically brought them back, although the dead people were sad, but the soldiers of the Xingtian Army who lived in the war all the year round were already accustomed to this, there was not much sadness, and there were not many people crying loudly, after all, they fought a big victory today, and killed a lot of Tartar soldiers, their exploits at this time, are enough to shine in the world, so they don't have to be too sad, Every brother who died in battle was exchanged for the lives of a few Tartar soldiers, and everything was worth it.

After Xiao Tianjian returned to the camp, he first led the officers to pay tribute to these fallen soldiers, recorded their names one by one, and sent people to cut down and burn their bodies outside the camp overnight, and it was impossible to take them home, but Xiao Tianjian promised them when he went out on the expedition that he would bring the souls of the heroes who died on the battlefield back to their homes, and their ashes would be brought back as much as possible, and displayed in the martyrs' shrines set up by the Xingtian Army in various places, and enshrined forever, so the soldiers and generals did not have any psychological burden for the soldiers who died here. As long as they have families, the Xingtian Army will take good care of their afterlife.

After doing this, the soldiers and generals of the Xingtian army sat around the piles of bonfires in the camp, and the firemen of the camp and the firemen of each battalion were busy with their work, putting the horse meat of the collected Tartar war horses into the pot and cooking them piece by piece, and then rushing the pancakes to the camp, so that the soldiers could feast and have a good meal.

Although everyone was exhausted after a day of fierce fighting, the generals after the great victory were in high spirits, sitting around the fire, laughing loudly, boasting to each other about their achievements today, and laughing at the incompetence and embarrassment of the Tartar soldiers.

Even with some of the rescued officers and soldiers, they couldn't help but get close to the Xingtian soldiers, and they were close, and the words of gratitude made the Xingtian soldiers feel even more bright, but for these officers and soldiers, they didn't show too much arrogance, after all, Lu Xiangsheng led them, they did a good job during this time, and they really worked hard with the Tartars, they can be regarded as some heroes, although their identities are different from each other, but at this time, the estrangement between officials and thieves is gone, and they are also very happy with each other.

But soon the officers and soldiers began to cry, because Li Qi had brought them bad news, and their admired governor, Lord Lu Xiangsheng, had died of his injuries after being rescued.

After hearing this, all the officers and soldiers immediately lost their mood to laugh, and one after another burst into tears, and suddenly there was a lot of grief in the camp of the Xingtian Army, and even some of the soldiers of the Xingtian Army who admired Lu Xiangsheng's promotion were silent, and some even cried after being infected.

Yang Lukai's face was full of tears, and he followed Li Qi into a spirit tent that had just been erected, and at this time, someone in the spirit tent had already cleaned up Lu Xiangsheng's body, put on the sackcloth filial piety clothes for him again, combed his beard and hair bun, wiped the blood on his face, and the light in the spirit tent was dim, Yang Lukai pounced next to Lu Xiangsheng's body, and immediately cried loudly, Yang Lukai was brought out by Lu Xiangsheng, and Lu Xiangsheng had a deep relationship, and learned the news that Lu Xiangsheng drove to the west, the most sad, Crying several times, he almost turned his back on his anger and was carried down by his own soldiers.

The other generals were also specially allowed to come to pay tribute to Lu Xiangsheng, and the officers and soldiers took turns to enter the spiritual tent, and finally took a look at their beloved Lu Duchen, all of them cried in a mess, and everyone left them to worship for a short time, the reason was that this was still a battlefield, and everything could only be simplified, so the big guy could only take a look at the body of Lu Xiangsheng lying in a hurry by the dim light, and then hurriedly went out of the tent.

But no one found anything special, after all, they all knew that Lu Xiangsheng rushed to kill in the morning and was seriously injured, so it was not strange that they were really dead, plus they were very sad, and the lights in the spiritual tent were not bright enough, so everyone was not suspicious, and everyone was sad and wanted to die.

Xiao Tianjian personally presided over the sacrifice of Lu Xiangsheng, and ordered the officers of the Xingtian Army to come over to pay homage to Lu Xiangsheng, which made these Xuan soldiers even more grateful to the Xingtian Army, and repeatedly said that the Xingtian Army was benevolent and righteous, and said that Xiao Tianjian was benevolent and righteous, and they knelt down to thank Xiao Tianjian and the Xingtian Army generals again, and thanked them for bringing their Lu Duchen out, although Lord Lu still did not survive death, but after all, he ended up with a whole corpse, and his body was not harmed by the Tartars.

After Xiao Tianjian persuaded them to mourn, he ordered the craftsmen in the army to build a coffin on the spot, put Lu Xiangsheng into the burial, and then put the coffin on a big car, saying that he would go back and find a place to bury Lu Xiangsheng, as for the matter of Lu Xiangsheng's death to be classified into the ancestral grave, it can only be said later.

Yang Luting and the officers and soldiers have nothing to say about such an arrangement, after all, now after all, it is a time of war, and many things cannot be taken into account, after all, the Xingtian Army and the imperial court are still hostile relations, even if they want to send Lu Xiangsheng's body back to Yixing's hometown, it is impossible, they will be buried here on the spot, and their families will transfer it back to their hometown for burial in the ancestral grave in the future, which is reasonable, so this matter has been decided.

After Xiao Tianjian settled these officers and soldiers, he returned to a big tent, looked down at the person lying on the bed, and said to Li Qi: "It seems that things are going relatively smoothly, you don't have to worry, Lord Lu's injury has stabilized, and tomorrow the Japanese marshal will arrange for someone to escort Lord Lu back to Luoyang first, you go back with you, and take good care of Lord Lu!" Now that there is no such person as Lu Xiangsheng in this world, you must not say it! This is related to the net worth and life of Lord Lu's entire family, you know? ”

Li Qi knelt on the ground and kowtowed again and again to thank him, saying that he remembered clearly, please rest assured that Xiao Tianjian would not say it, Xiao Tianjian looked at Lu Xiangsheng in a coma again, and then withdrew from the tent, returned to his big tent, and began to convene the generals under his command to discuss the matter.
