The last of the reinforcements to arrive was a company of hunting cavalry led by Torakhachi, and the mobility of the pure cavalry was still a little worse than that of the warriors of the automobile battalion. In the early morning www.biquge.info of the next day, Tarahachi and Sumuri led more than 100 hunters, and even some soldiers of the automobile battalion mounted captured horses and killed the culprit of the incident, the Taiqi tribe.

The automobile battalion evened out the remaining fuel, and finally gathered four more fuel-filled warriors to follow a total of more than 200 cavalry.

In yesterday's rout, a small number of deserters with good feet had returned to the Taiqi tribe, and the great rout of the coalition army and the unknown life and death of Ekrond greatly shocked the 3,000 Yokuz coalition troops who were still assembled in the Taiqi tribe. The clever people had already fled with their men overnight, and even some of the residents of the Taiqi tribe knew that they would definitely face the bloody revenge of the Tang people next, so they fled their villages. But when a large group of people gathered together, the efficiency of action was extremely slow, so when the next morning, when the Tang Hunters arrived at the Taiqi tribe, there were still more than 2,000 Yokuz people who did not escape.

With four warrior chariots as the core of the assault, the 200 cavalry covered the battle for a while, and soon defeated this chaotic army. Most of the Yokuz people knelt on the ground and begged for mercy in order to avoid being hunted down, and then the militia who arrived tied them all up, and even later when there were not enough ropes, they let the ropes tie up in a circle, and the untied stood in the circle, and then a few militiamen watched over them.

The most powerful tribe of Taiqi also ushered in its own demise, in yesterday's battle, two-thirds of the men in the tribe have been killed or missing, and there is now a group of women and children left in the tribe. In the midst of the panic, the rich women and children followed the Indian tradition of surrendering to the conquerors in order to survive.

In the afternoon of the same day, Torahachi and the others received another order from Los Angeles to work with the troops who rushed to the Central Valley to carry out a thorough sweep of all the tribes of Yokuz in the Central Valley.

This sweep of the Central Valley lasted for more than a month, and the Tang Army mobilized the entire Cavalry Hunting Regiment, as well as the second and third battalions of the Light Transmission Regiment, and even Sumuli later mobilized a part of the Chumash and Sarinan to join the sweep of the Yokuz people in the Central Valley. The Yokuz people, with a total population of between 20,000 and 40,000, also disappeared overnight.

According to later historians, 60 percent of the men of the Yokuz tribe were killed in the 1774 Yokuz War, nearly 10,000 women were forced to move to Los Angeles and other farms as female laborers, and a small number of people were captured by Chumash and other tribes and became slaves. In fact, it was not only the Yokuz who became the exterminated people, but also the Tang Dynasty soldiers found it difficult to distinguish between the Yokuz and other Indians who lived in the Central Valley and used the same language, so in line with the principle of preferring to kill the wrong people than let go, these peoples were also uprooted. Some of them, of course, did take part in the war against the Don.

Through such a war, the Tang Republic completely mastered the most elite area of California, the Central Valley, and began to reclaim this land on a large scale, making it a real land of abundance on the west coast of North America.

Soldiers from Sumuri and his cavalry company had withdrawn to Los Angeles early in the purge. He was greeted with a solemn and solemn ceremony.

Dressed in a fine military uniform, Sumuri rode his horse to the front, and the surviving cavalry company Indian warriors also followed behind his company commander on horseback. The second platoon leader, who had a broken arm, was also in second place. Even if the doctors did not advise him to do any drastic activities, he had to put on this uniform today and come to this occasion. Dozens of Chinese soldiers, holding urns, marched behind the cavalry. The bones of all the Indian cavalrymen who died that day had been properly collected, their bodies cremated, their ashes placed in urns, and stamped with the flag.

People from all walks of life kept quiet on both sides of the road, and there was no cheer for victory, only memories and mourning for the warriors who were loyal to the country. Many wore black armbands to commemorate the martyrs, gentlemen wore strict suits or tunics, and ladies wore black dresses, with only the sound of horses' hooves tapping and stomping on the ground.

The procession arrived at the newly built Los Angeles National Cemetery, where the soldiers buried their comrades in silence. On the tombstones, the names of each soldier are clearly written, and some of them are not even of an unknown age. The tombstones of the martyrs do not indicate which nationality they are from, only the four big characters "Tang Martyrs" show their noble identity.

"Shoot!" The neatly lined guard of honor moved in unison, with their guns pointed to the sky and fired into the sky.

"Salute!" The Tang Dynasty soldiers who stood in a phalanx paid the highest respect to their fallen comrades-in-arms, and on this occasion, not only them, but even the members of the cabinet stood in the cemetery to pay tribute to the martyrs. President Zhao Daling is also wearing a military uniform today, and only in this capacity can he pay the highest respect to the martyrs.

Among the crowd, a young boy also had a serious face, and followed a crooked military salute, which looked particularly cute. But in the heart of this little boy, only such an act can show these martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country and show their greatness.

Su Muri, who was standing at the front, looked at the rows of tombstones, and said silently in his heart: "Comrades, you have walked gloriously and received the treatment you deserve, and from now on you are all heroes of this country." ”

Shortly after the state funeral, Bai Nam saw Su Muri, dressed in a military uniform, sitting alone under a tree where no one was around. The National Cemetery is built on a hill overlooking the rapidly building city of Los Angeles.

"I feel uncomfortable, there's no need to hold back, you can find someone to talk to." Bai Nan stood in front of him.

Su Muli saw that it was Bai Nan, and hurriedly wanted to stand up and salute, but Bai Nan pressed him down again.

"The Ministry of Defense has officially decided that it will officially award you the rank of captain, and from today onwards, you will be an officer of the Tang Army."

There was a slight excitement in Su Muri's eyes, but his expression was still calm, and he asked, "What about the comrades who died in battle?" ”

Bai Nandao: "They all died as Tang Dynasty soldiers, they must have appropriate military ranks, everyone will be posthumously awarded, they and their families' Datang national identity will be recognized and protected, their relatives will receive preferential treatment from the state, and their heirs will be trained by the state." Their tablets will be placed in the Martyrs' Shrine to enjoy the eternal incense of the Tang Dynasty people, and they will be immortalized as national heroes. ”

Su Muri nodded slightly, very satisfied with the result. Every Indian cavalry who died fought to the last moment with the responsibility and ethics of the Tang Dynasty soldiers, and he couldn't imagine what kind of loss it would be if they could not be recognized as Tang Dynasty nationals and soldiers.

"Lieutenant Colonel Bai, the aboriginal cavalry company has been short of more than half, if you count the disabled brothers this time, it is estimated that it is at most the strength of a reinforced platoon, and our establishment is ......" Su Muli was very worried, he learned a lot of military knowledge, he knew that when an establishment in the army was broken up, he often faced the fate of withdrawal.

Bai Nandao: "The aboriginal cavalry company will not continue to exist. ”

Su Muri heard what he was most worried about, but Bai Nan's bad words changed sharply and said: "Because the cabinet and the Ministry of Defense both believe that there is no difference between aborigines and Chinese, and there is no value in deliberately distinguishing them. Your company has proven itself on the battlefield with blood and lives, earning the respect of the entire nation. The company will be retained, and the Ministry of Defense will award you the flag, and from now on you will be called the 'Iron Cavalry Company', and you will also be the first Tang Army company-level unit with a name and banner. The Ministry of National Defense will add new soldiers to the Iron Cavalry Company, and I hope that you can carry forward the glorious tradition of loyalty and heroism and become the elite of our Tang Army. ”

Su Muli was extremely moved by these few words, and he stood up and saluted Bai Nan, "Thank you, Lieutenant Colonel Bai. ”

Bai Nan shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be you who thank me, but me and all the people thank you and you." ”

Bai Nan felt that many Chinese soldiers and nationals in the Tang Dynasty did not have much sense of national identity, and as for their loyalty to the country and their own duties, they were even more pitiful. But these are the Indian cavalrymen who may be discriminated against by the Chinese and do not think that they are the Tang people, and they have taught everyone a shocking lesson with their lives.

They let the people of Datang see what a soldier's loyalty to the country is, and what the loyal soul and liver of a Datang person should have. All the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will review whether they can be like these lowly-looking and barbaric Indian cavalry, in order to cover the retreat of the farm members, in order to protect the country's property, fight with enemies dozens of times their size, fight the enemy with cold weapons, and finally sacrifice their lives.

Their nobility has made some people who are still muddled feel ashamed, and it makes people re-face that our country is so great that it deserves to be protected by some people who dedicate their lives to it, and for the sake of this country, for the sake of all the compatriots who live here, there is only 12 points of their own blood and 12 points of effort.

In the same way, the martyrs who died will have a positive impact on the indigenous Indians living in the Tang Dynasty, and they will see that any contribution to the country will be affirmed and recognized. They are not inferior people, as long as they do noble things, they will be admired.
