"It's a pity that I ran away from that Fuyu Feng."

Wang Fangyi said with some regret, last night's battle was fierce enough, but unfortunately the Tang army came from afar after all, and in order to rescue Liu Boying, he had to make a surprise attack because he couldn't wait for the follow-up reinforcements to arrive. The 5,000 foot soldiers led by Li Xiao marched forcibly for 80 miles, and there were too many people left behind.

As a result, although the Japanese army and the Baekje rebels were defeated in the end, they were unable to achieve perfect results. Many of the defeated enemy troops ran away, including Buyeo Feng, who was sent back by the Japanese to claim the restoration of the king, as well as several generals of the Baekje rebels, such as Onimuro Fukunobu and Monk Daochen.

Fuyufeng and others fled quickly, but the Japanese were very fierce and did not withdraw from the battle, delusionally trying to defeat the Tang army head-on, but the result was naturally the Tang army's victory.

Although the Japanese army is very fierce and more numerous, the Tang army's weapons and equipment are more sophisticated, plus Wang Fangyi, Zhao Zhiman, etc. are the best among the younger generation of Tang generals, with them leading the charge, the Japanese are difficult to resist, plus there are 500 light cavalry in the Tang army, which is a force that determines the outcome of the victory.

The battlefield was cleaned overnight, and the results were still amazing.

From the rebel siege of Jiuchi City, Liu Boying led the people to fight to the death day and night, and then Li Xiao led reinforcements to arrive, counter-encirclement and melee, a fierce battle day and night, Baekje and the Japanese allied army totaled more than 35,000 people, and finally died under the city of about 5,000 people, including more than 1,000 Japanese and more than 4,000 Baekje rebels.

About 20,000 enemy troops were captured, including more than 3,000 Japanese and more than 16,000 Baekje.

Of the 35,000 enemy troops, only 10,000 people such as Fuyufeng escaped.

The results of the battle were brilliant, especially the 5,000 Japanese army led by Sakai Betanlang, which was completely wiped out.

The losses of the Tang army were not light, Liu Boying's 1,000 troops were almost killed and wounded, more than 800 people were killed in the battle, only more than 100 people were still wounded, and the Baekje people in the city helped the battle, and 7 or 800 people died.

The 5,500 cavalry reinforcements brought by Li Xiao were killed in a battle.

This battle loss is actually very amazing, the Tang Dynasty government soldiers in battle, generally rarely reach such a high battle loss, but considering that Li Xiao's command is mostly recruited for more than half a year, Baekje village warriors, equipment and training are far inferior to the government soldiers, but it is understandable.

"A monument is erected outside the city for the war dead, and the bodies of the dead Baekje soldiers and civilians are collected and buried here. And the fallen soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, the bodies were cremated, the ashes were collected, and sent back to the Central Plains with the ship, so that their souls could return to their hometown. ”

Li Xiao said with some pain, once it will be a success, ten thousand bones will wither.

For him, as a marshal, a big war eventually turned into a post-war statistical table, but every number on this paper represents a living life in the past.

Especially for many Tang Army soldiers, some of them used to be fugitives, some used to be mercenaries, some used to be government soldiers, their hometowns were all on the west side of the sea, they were young, but they eventually died in this foreign land.

Do they pay for life?

Li Xiao was their commander, their death was because of his own orders, Li Xiao felt that he was carrying the weight of these war dead, and he had to make their deaths meaningful, otherwise he would be sorry for them.

Liu Boying also lowered his head, although the scale of this battle is actually very small for the entire Tang Dynasty, the bigger wars Datang has fought a lot, and the Tang Dynasty has been established for more than 30 years, but there is almost no year without war, and there is no year without a war.

But this battle was unprecedentedly tragic for Liu Boying.

"Marshal, I once promised the soldiers and civilians of Jiuchi City and awarded them heavy rewards, and now that the war is over, I hope to be able to fulfill it."

He said his promises, such as beheading the first level to reward the land and how much money he had, such as how many levels of soldiers killed the enemy and how many levels he was promoted to higher ranks.

"All of these things are due, I have all agreed, check the merits, and register and make a book. Not only that, but as the marshal, I now declare that all those who participated in the defense of the city in Jiuchi City will be my people of the Tang Dynasty from now on, and all of them will be eligible to grant land and enjoy the same rent and tax rate as the people of the Tang Dynasty. ”

"If there are war dead in the family, you can select suitable people from your family to fill in the Andong Tutuan, and the selected ones will enjoy the treatment of Juntian."

This battle made Li Xiao have a good discovery, many Baekje people did not respond to the rebellion of those Baekje heroes, and they even took up arms to fight bravely with the Tang army.

Many have paid with their lives.

This made Li Xiao understand that many of the policies he had implemented in Baekje had won the support of these ordinary Baekje people.

They don't mind being Baekje or Tang, they just know that under the Tang Dynasty, their lives are better, and sometimes, that's enough.

In the past, Li Xiao had a lot of reservations about the Baekje people, and he didn't trust them very much. But after this battle, Li Xiao felt that these Baekje people were worthy of trust.

Since they have done enough to earn his trust, he will not hesitate to reward them.

Giving these people the direct registration of the Tang Dynasty, giving them the qualification to grant land to Juntian, and enjoying the same treatment as the people of the Tang Dynasty in Middle Earth is the greatest reward for them.

Li Xiao hopes to reward these people who have won the trust of Datang with their performance, so that these people will be more deeply loyal to Datang and contribute to Datang's foothold in Baekje.

Now Li Xiao has a third-class treatment for the Baekje people of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate.

The first class is the selected Tutuan, and after the battle, with good performance to win the trust of the villagers, they will get 100 acres of land, and enjoy the same treatment as the Central Plains soldiers, do not need to pay rent and adjust, only need to cultivate their own land, for the Tunzhuang to contribute to the cultivation of the tuntian, and idle farming, training, wartime troops.

In the second class, Baekje's original poor tenant slaves, etc., who were proletarians in the past, and Li Xiao implemented a policy of paying rent for tenants and official fields, paying rent for government farming, and granting ten acres of land every five years for those who performed well.

The worst class is the aristocratic and powerful landlords in the past, these are the interest groups in the past and the interests of the Tang Dynasty after the destruction of Baekje, they must have a grudge against the Tang Dynasty, so Li Xiao is a suppression strategy for them, measuring the fields, counting the property, registering the household registration, collecting the deed money and limiting the amount of land, etc., and each family has to pay hostages to the government.

No one can enjoy the treatment of the people of the Tang Dynasty as soon as they come, although Li Xiao has a lot of land in his hands, but he does not plan to directly divide the land to them.

"Send all those captives to the port of Tangjin to board the ship and transport them to the Chishan Port Slave Auction House in Dengzhou to be sold. In addition, all Baekje rebels who participated in the rebellion were to have all their fields and other property confiscated and confiscated. His immediate family members also moved to Tuntian in the Central Plains. "Li Xiao was unceremonious to those rebels.
