The battle was over, and the captain of the firearms battalion gave two orders, one to clean up the battlefield and the other to count the casualties on both sides.

Soon, the number of casualties on both sides was counted and sent to the captain of the firearms battalion.

Looking at the statistical list of casualties on both sides in his hand, the captain of the firearms battalion looked solemn.

list. In this battle, the firearms unit of the Qin army lost 346 people, 79 were seriously wounded, and 149 were lightly wounded.

The casualties of the entire Qin army firearms battalion have exceeded 600 people.

This was almost the largest number of casualties in the Qin army's firearms unit since its establishment, and even in all previous battles, including the extermination of the Japanese and a series of battles with the Dashun army on the way south, all the casualties of the Qin army's firearms unit were not as high as the number of casualties in today's battles.

The casualty ratio has exceeded 1/20, and such a casualty ratio is basically very high in all the battles after the Qin army entered the pass.

Therefore, looking at the list in front of him, the faces of the captain of the firearms battalion and the generals under him were extremely ugly.

Everyone gritted their teeth and clenched their fists, eager to kill all the British who wanted to fish in troubled waters in order to relieve the hatred in their hearts.

Although the list shows the British this time. The total number of casualties was more than 1,100, of which more than 600 were killed and more than 500 were wounded, and the total number of casualties was twice that of the Qin army.

If it is placed in other troops, this kind of battle loss ratio is obviously a big victory.

But among the Qin army, there was not the slightest joy of victory, but a deep shame.

For the true elite troops of the Qin army, the ratio of enemy to own losses was 2:1, which was a very humiliating figure.

According to the results of previous battles, the Qin army suffered five or six hundred casualties, and the enemy had to pay. Ten or even twenty times the casualties are barely worth it.

Looking at the resentful expressions of the commanders in front of him, although the captain of the firearms battalion was also very uncomfortable in his heart, he still took a deep breath and comforted everyone: "In this battle, although our army suffered heavy casualties, it also gained a lot. After all, our enemy is inferior to us in terms of weapons, except for artillery, and the muskets are evenly matched with us, so our superiority in weapons has been greatly offset to have such a result. It's not too much of a loss, and most importantly, we can get the details of this British army from the mouths of these captives, and I think that's the answer General Di really wants to hear. ”

The commanders also know that what the captain said is very reasonable, but they still can't calmly accept this result for them who regard honor as their life.

Each of them secretly swore in their hearts that they would annihilate this British army in the future to avenge the humiliation of today.

The troops in charge of cleaning up the battlefield have gathered together the bodies of all the soldiers who died on both sides, including the bandits under the Yama King Jianghu who had died in the battle against the British.

Because it was the height of summer, the corpses had to be quickly disposed of on the spot.

The bodies of all the fallen Qin soldiers were buried on the hillside behind Shangwang Village. More than 300 tombstones made of wood were erected densely on the hillside, as if these soldiers were still alive, and continued to hold off the enemy on the hillside.

And those who died were not treated so well.

They were dug into a big pit, and then gathered together, in a raging fire, reduced to ashes, and became forever you and me, and I and you are comrades.

As the pit was finally buried, the lives of these Englishmen, like the wind blowing through a leaf, came and went silently. Completely dissipated in this foreign land.

As for the bandits who died in the previous battle, they were also given due respect and funerals.

Wang Jianghu, the pretty king of Yama, who had already woken up, was treated by the Qin army military doctor who accompanied the army.

With a white bandage around his left arm and his left arm hanging from his chest, he took his five brothers who survived the catastrophe and kowtowed three times to the tombstones of all the dead brothers.

After kowtowing three times, the nine-foot-tall mighty man was already in tears.

All the surviving brothers behind him were likewise teary-eyed.

Life is impermanent, half a day ago, they were still a group of hundreds of fresh lives and hundreds of living brothers who could talk, laugh, tell meat jokes, and love to brag, but now they have become a cold corpse lying under the tomb, how can it not make people feel sad and sad?

The captain of the firearms battalion with a group of commanders. Slowly walked behind Wang Jianghu, the king of Pretty Yama, and said solemnly: "Lord Wang, your brothers will not die in vain. The deeds of you and your brothers, I will tell General Di the truth. Had it not been for the desperate resistance of you and your brothers today, this British army would most likely have had very serious consequences. We, Qin Jun, owe you a great favor. If you are willing to join the army. I will give the general all my might. If you don't, His Royal Highness the Lord Regent will give you a very generous reward. I guarantee that you and your brothers will be able to spend the rest of your life in peace and prosperity. ”

After finishing speaking, the lieutenant pulled out the pistol from his waist and raised the muzzle of the gun suddenly, shouting upwards: "Send the robe!" ”

One gunshot was followed by tens of thousands of gunshots, and all the Qin soldiers in the firearms battalion raised their rifles and fired into the sky. In this tragic way, we bid farewell to these heroic souls who died in battle.

After all is said and done. In order to prevent the British from repeating their old tricks, the captain of the firearms battalion left two thousand troops in the same place and escorted the British prisoners with the main force. and the captured guns and ammunition began to return to the Qin army camp.

At this time, Jinling City was under the fierce artillery fire of the Qin army. The three walls were already crumbling. There is always a danger of being overcome.

In the Qin army showed. After the real fangs, the morale of the victorious army in Jinling City had reached the verge of collapse at this time, if it were not for the ruthless suppression of the defender Luo Kedi by bloody means, the Dashun army in the city would have collapsed and surrendered.

Finally with a sound. An earth-shattering bang. Jinling City. The West Gate, the huge city gate, was torn apart by a violent explosion, and finally collapsed.

The cavalry of the Qin army, which has long been eyeing it. Whizzing away? Rushed into the city. Behind him, there was a steady stream of Qin troops, pouring in from the city gate.

Originally, the Dashun army thought that it could hold on to Jinling City for at least half a month, or even longer. This moment. It is already possible to declare the fall. To be exact, it should be declared liberated.
