As for Zuo Liangyu, although he was escorted on the boat, but he couldn't escape far, he was blocked by more and more rebel-controlled ships, under Xiao Tianjian's huge reward, these officers and soldiers who participated in the rebellion, all rushed up to fight, trying to catch or kill Zuo Liangyu for merit, although Zuo Liangyu's subordinates also desperately resisted, but the wave of killing and retreat was surrounded again, at first this kind of fight was formed spontaneously without organization, but then gradually more and more ships surrounded it, Surrounded the several boats led by Zuo Liangyu into three layers inside and three layers outside, Yang Kunshan and Liu Jiang both rushed here and began to command the ships besieging Zuo Liangyu.

Several boats controlled by Zuo Liangyu's men were surrounded in the middle, arrows rained down in all directions, from time to time someone fell on the boat or fell into the river, no matter how they fought hard, they could not get out of the encirclement, Zuo Liangyu was also crazy, and commanded his men to resist desperately on the warship, but they were soon exhausted, and they could only prevent the rebels from jumping on their ships as much as possible.

After a fierce battle, Zuo Liangyu's men suffered heavy casualties, although they also killed and injured a lot of rebels, but several of their boats began to be ignited by the rebels' rockets, Zuo Liangyu was also seriously injured and fell on the boat, forcing Zuo Liangyu to look up to the sky and shout: "God will kill me!" ”

Immediately, a large number of rebels began to pour onto their ships, swords and guns were raised and pounced on Zuo Liangyu and his remaining men......

The battle of Jingzhou was not completely over until July 23, after this battle, the Xingtian army completely annihilated Zuo Liangyu's troops in the Jingzhou area, only a very small number of Zuo Liangyu's men broke the siege and fled, but since Zuo Liangyu fell to the main generals, they were all beheaded or captured by the Xingtian army.

Zuo Liangyu was killed by the rebels commanded by Yang Kunshan and Liu Jiang on the river, his body was sent back to Jingzhou City that afternoon and handed over to Xiao Tianjian, Xiao Tianjian examined Zuo Liangyu's body with injuries, and after confirming that it was correct, he cashed his reward on the spot, rewarded a few six people who finally killed Zuo Liangyu with two hundred taels of silver each, but because the situation was too chaotic, Zuo Liangyu was cut all over with wounds, and there were many arrow wounds, and he couldn't recognize who was the one who really killed him, so the battalion general said that he didn't need to talk about it, Anyone who participated in the siege of Zuo Liangyu was rewarded with twenty taels of silver, which was regarded as compensation, which made these rebels very happy.

As for Zuo Liangyu's family, they were basically burned to death on the ship, and his son Zuo Mengeng was killed on the spot by several rebels, and his head was also found and sent to Jingzhou City.

It can be said that in the first battle of Jingzhou, Zuo Liangyu's family was basically wiped out, and there is no need to worry about Zuo Liangyu's family making any more waves in the future.

In addition to Zuo Liangyu and his family, Zuo Liangyu's generals basically did not run away, they did not die in the chaos on the spot, they were captured by the Xingtian Army, and those who ran away can be said to be only a handful, even if they ran away, these people were also frightened in the future, and forgive them for not daring to make waves and make waves with the Xingtian Army as enemies.

In this battle, nearly 10,000 people of the left army were killed, and it is not too much to say that it was a massacre, and the Zuo Liangyu group was completely killed by a river of blood, staining the Yangtze River in Jingzhou red, and many corpses sank into the river and fed the fish can not be verified, but at least it can be guaranteed that there is no problem in killing Yingwan.

The losses of the Xingtian Army were about 1,000 people, more than 400 killed, about 5 or 600 wounded, of which more than 200 were seriously wounded, and the losses were relatively heavy, basically catching up with the number of casualties in the first battle of Xiangyang, which shows that this battle was quite tragic.

In addition to Zuo Liangyu's slaughter, the capture of Jingzhou, but also captured King Hui and King Hui's family who were divided into Jingzhou City, this King Hui is also considered unlucky, a guy like Zuo Liangyu sat in Jingzhou, and was blackmailed by Zuo Liangyu many times.

For this King Hui, Xiao Tianjian thought that he was not in trouble in Jingzhou, so he spared his life, and after confiscating King Hui's family property, he and his children and concubines were moved to Baokang County for resettlement, and were demoted to the status of commoners, so that he could cultivate and weave by himself, and don't think about living a comfortable and luxurious life in the future.

Although Xiao Tianjian was hit by a few arrows under Jingzhou City, fortunately, he was covered with heavy armor and his injuries were very light, which basically did not affect his activities, but it was his actions like this, first, to win the hearts of the people, and secondly, to completely anger the generals of the Xingtian Army, and also to win the hearts of the generals.

It's a pity that his beloved horse, after carrying Xiao Tianjian back, was seriously injured and died in the army two days later, so that Xiao Tianjian was sad, this yellow horse has been following him for many years, and Xiao Tianjian's relationship has been quite deep, many times his subordinates have to change a better war horse for him, but Xiao Tianjian refused, now for Xiao Tianjian, this yellow horse died in front of the army, how can Xiao Tianjian be ruthless, so Xiao Tianjian personally insisted on burying this beloved horse, and set up a monument to commemorate, Just for this beloved horse, Xiao Tianjian killed a lot of Zuo Liangyu's men to pay tribute to it.

During the siege war, although many innocent people and women and children were killed and injured, the common people did not resent Xiao Tianjian because of this, and Xiao Tianjian also fulfilled his promise after entering the city to settle the people, and ordered to collect the corpses of those women and children in the city, and those who have relatives can take their bodies to be buried, and the Xingtianjun distributed ten taels of silver as a pension, and if there was no family to collect the funeral, they were collectively moved outside the city, and on the bank of the river in the west of the city, they chose a good place, buried it neatly, and allocated silver taels at the same time. An ancestral hall was built there, and the generals were specially led to make a grand public sacrifice there.

At the same time, after the Xingtian army entered the city, they took the money and grain collected by Zuo Liangyu in the city, allocated 150,000 taels of silver and a large amount of grain and distributed it to help the local people who suffered from military disasters.

Those Jingzhou people who were forcibly coerced by Zuo Liangyu all surrendered after the war, and after selection, they first picked out Zuo Liangyu's cronies who were hiding in them, dragged them out and cut them, and left a group of strong and honest people, filled into the Xingtian Army, organized into three battalions of new troops, and at the same time added the elite personnel of the reserve battalion to the battle-damaged battalions, as for the remaining people, including those officers and soldiers who surrendered in the two battles of Chengtianfu and Jingmen, they were all dismissed on the spot, ordered to return home, and immediately began to cultivate their land. Those who did not have their own land could receive the land distributed to them by the Heavenly Army, including the cattle that confiscated the wealthy families, and they were also distributed.

The war is very devastated to the people's livelihood, Xiao Tianjian is not most concerned about how much silver taels and grain are seized, he is more concerned about any capture of a place, it is necessary to restore local agriculture and industry and commerce as soon as possible, otherwise he will one day really seize the world, and then turn his head to take care of these things, I don't know how long the world will be chaotic, this is also his cleverness, now Henan's agriculture is recovering very quickly, those abandoned fields, has begun a large number of recultivation, after this summer harvest, Although Henan does not dare to say that the problem of famine will be completely solved, at least the majority of the people will have something to eat and will not be starved to death again, and as long as the common people have food to eat, they will settle down, and the gradual agricultural production will get better and better in the future.

A few years ago, Xiao Tianjian had already signed an order, ordering that all the areas controlled by the Xingtian Army should protect the ploughing cattle, mules and horses, and no one should kill the ploughing cattle privately, and the purpose was to restore the number of ploughing cattle as soon as possible, so as to promote the recovery of agricultural production.

And the biggest gain in Jingzhou's First War was not the problem of money and food, but through the secret rebellion, Xiao Tianjian easily obtained a large number of usable warships and various types of ships in Jingzhou, and a large number of usable sailors.

Liu Jiang instigated the old Zuo Liangyu Navy to defect to the Xingtian Army, many of whom were fishermen or boatmen who lived on the Yangtze River all the year round, and these people could soon be transformed into effective combat effectiveness of the Navy, so that Xiao Tianjian could have a usable Navy on the Yangtze River in a very short period of time, plus Yang Kunshan, an old subordinate to control the water camp, and then he used these fleets captured from Zuo Liangyu to easily go south and march towards Wuchang Mansion.

If it weren't for the rebellion against Zuo Liangyu's naval army this time, then first, he would probably not be able to catch Zuo Liangyu, at most he could only take Jingzhou City, and watched Zuo Liangyu lead the remnants to escape, and second, even if he conquered Jingzhou City, he would not be able to establish a usable naval army in a short period of time and continue his offensive and plundering operations along the Yangtze River.

If there is no naval army in the Yangtze River area, only with his infantry army and cavalry, it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch, during the Southern Song Dynasty, the Jin State and the Mongols went south, all of them were suffocated in the Yangtze River area, and were blocked in the north of the Yangtze River and could not go south, and finally the Mongols had to make a detour from Sichuan to attack the Southern Song Dynasty, and finally destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty.

And among his soldiers, the vast majority of them are people from the Central Plains and people from Shanxi and Hebei, these soldiers don't look at the tigers he trained on land, but they have to be caught blind on the water, and the vast majority of them don't know water at all, let them be water pawns, that's a joke, so the biggest gain in Jingzhou's first battle is to control most of Zuo Liangyu's water camp.

As soon as Xingzhou was broken and Zuo Liangyu died, Zuo Liangyu's sailors who originally stayed in the long lake saw that they were not good and also begged to surrender, among which Zuo Liangyu's generals immediately abandoned the boat and absconded, but a few were still tied up by their men and sent to the Xingtian Army, and were immediately beheaded on the shore.

Zuo Liangyu also concentrated more than 100 boats on the Changhu Lake, and these boats suffered little losses, and they were immediately transferred to the Yangtze River by Xiao Tianjian's order and filled into the Yangtze River Water Camp newly established by the Xingtian Army, which made the scale of the water camp expand a lot.
