Ye Erxian's efforts paid off as he wanted, and the collapse of one period rock army eroded the hearts of the other period rock troops. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info a large number of subordinate troops were all pulled by Cherley, their loyalty was not high, and their training level was not as good as that of the Turat Army, at this moment they all felt that it was hopeless to win this battle. Originally, there were not a few tribes who had the idea of sharing the spoils together if they could win, and if they couldn't win, they would smear oil on the soles of their feet, and at this moment, they saw that the situation was unfavorable, so they naturally refused to be buried with Che Erlie, so they abandoned their responsibilities and retreated, and the entire formation suddenly became a mess, and the Qiyan army finally fell into a state of complete collapse.

At this time, even Chereel had to admit defeat, although on the surface he had an army of 80,000, but in reality the only army that could really command like his hands and feet was his own men and horses and a few tribes who sincerely supported him. Once the will to fight is lost, then even if Cherlie has great ability, he will not be able to reverse this situation. So far, he can only lead his headquarters to start an orderly retreat to avoid further losses of his strength. Fortunately, the main army of the Iwabe did not give Temeng a chance to take advantage of it, otherwise the casualties of the Iwabu army might have multiplied.

After the battle was dark, Themon ordered the pursuit to be halted. It's not that he doesn't want to take advantage of the victory to expand the victory, he understands that the men and horses of Che Erlie's headquarters have not suffered much damage, and his army is already very tired, and if he continues to fight, he will definitely be unable to fight, and there will even be an opportunity for the enemy to fight back. As a son, he knows his father's methods very well, if he doesn't know how to accept what he sees, the balance of victory and defeat is likely to be reversed again. Therefore, he withdrew his troops in time and ended the Battle of the Tule River.

During the Battle of the Dule River, the army of the rock department lost as many as 11,000 casualties, more than 10,000 wounded, and more than 20,000 prisoners, and the 80,000 army of the period rock department lost nearly half, but the loss of the headquarters of Che Erlie was not large, and it should be said that his basic combat strength was maintained; The casualties on the side of the Turks were only 4,700, and even with the Tatars, the losses did not exceed 10,000, and the Cheerel withdrew directly, so this battle was a complete victory for the Turks. This battle was not only the first battle with Chereel after Heza's succession, but also the first battle of Timon as the military commander of the Turks.

This battle was of great importance to both sides of the war, and even to Timon himself. After this battle, Chereel regained a sense of Hesa's strength and adjusted his strategic approach in time, so that the two sides remained at a stalemate for some time to come. And there is another peculiarity of this battle, that is, its actual casualty figure was not really counted until nearly 400 years later, and at the time after the battle, this casualty figure became a confusing mystery.

Why is this happening? Burundi scholars have pointed out that historically, it has been a common problem for all countries to understate war casualties. Deliberately reduce the number of casualties on your own side and exaggerate the number of casualties on the enemy in order to convince the people that their side has won a great military victory. However, the Battle of the Tule River was a special case, and Timon did falsely report the number of casualties, but he exaggerated his own casualties and reduced the number of casualties in the period.

Timon will do this completely out of helplessness, because of his excellent intelligence organization and actual combat command, coupled with a complete understanding of the psychology and combat style of the thorough, this time he won this battle very easily, but Tuqi did not win more with less victory and more victory in the period of Iwabe, the biggest follow-up problem is the attitude of the country of Juan.

Obviously, the Silk Country wants to see Hesa and Cheerel fight on an equal footing, and both sides will lose, and if the inferior Hesa can easily defeat Cheerel, then the future position of the Silk Country may be shaken, and the original ally may become an enemy. In order to avoid such a situation, Timon misrepresented the results of the victory. He counted the casualties of the Tatars into the casualties of the Tirthian army, and then repeated the casualties of the Tatars, so that the Turks lost about 10,000 people, and the Tatars also suffered more than 5,000 casualties, and the two added up to about 15,000 casualties. In addition, Themon released all the other slaves among the captives in order to win hearts and minds. He then handed over the remaining captives to the Tatars, so that he could smoothly describe the extra number of troops of the Turks as enemy prisoners. In addition, he reduced the number of casualties in the period, some of the wounded fled, some were captured, and the 11,000 killed in the battle were reduced to about 7,000. As a result, this victory was transformed into a narrow victory by him.

Another important factor in the reason why Timon's little trick was hidden from the world was that the defeated Chereel also falsely reported his own casualty figures, and he only counted the casualties of his own men and horses when he was defeated, so there was a bizarre figure of only more than 3,000 casualties, but 20,000 enemy soldiers were killed, and in order to make up for this lie that no one could believe, Cheriel faked a terrible plague in the army, and it was because of this plague that he caused a large number of non-combat attrition, which forced him to retreat.

Because this nonsense of Cherlie is too bizarre, everyone instinctively thinks that the number of Timon is more reliable, so in the official history, there is a conclusion that the two sides fought an equal match, and in the end Iwabe had to withdraw the army and the inference that the Tuqi side suffered more than 10,000 wounds and thousands of deaths, while the period Iwabe lost 5,000 to 7,000 and tens of thousands of wounded.

However, no matter how Themon's lies deceived the world, after this battle, Timon's prestige among the Turks was undoubtedly greatly enhanced. Originally mistaken for a staff officer, Teemon became one of the greatest generals under Hesa. In addition, a series of reform measures he implemented in the Turkic Compact have gradually shown results, and the reverence of the Tuqi soldiers and civilians who have benefited from him has increased day by day, and Timeng has become the most brilliant existence in the entire Turk. Of course, that's another story.

In fact, Timon's actions in the Battle of the Dule River were not hidden from everyone, and among those who saw through his tricks were Liu Xianzhi, the king of the loyal county of the Silk Country. But it is a pity that when the battle report of the battle of the Dule River reached the Beidi Metropolitan Protectorate, Liu Xianzhi was not in the Metropolitan Protectorate, at this time he was leading 20,000 infantry to Taiyuan, and then turned to Shannan Road.

Of course, Liu Xianzhi's move was directly approved by Emperor Liu Yan, and Liu Yan's purpose was to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger and scare those Confucian students. Objectively, Liu Xianzhi's action strongly supported Wang Hanxin, thus giving Liu Yan a greater initiative in judging the gains and losses of Flying Eagle Castle.
