After that, things were very simple, George VI retreated to the west bank of the Luo River with the remnants of the army, while Allen ordered his soldiers to clean up the battlefield and gather the rout. Then there is the ransom for those who should be ransom, and those who can't pay the ransom are stripped of all their belongings by Allen, and don't be assigned to be coolies. The expansion of the city of Essis coincided with a time of great labor shortage.

"You're doing well, so let's talk about our casualties." Allen summoned his own generals and held a summary meeting in a good manner. At this moment, without the pressure of George VI, everyone felt a light burden on their shoulders.

"Your Excellency, although the specific battle report has not yet come out, I think that this time, our most seriously damaged should be General Alexander's Essis phalanx infantry, and the battle loss rate is as high as seventy percent. But without the efforts of General Alexander, there would have been no great victory for us. Guy stood up and said, as Allen's military commander, he had a basic grasp of all the situations.

Alan nodded in agreement, "Yes, if Alexander's troops hadn't stopped George VI's attack for us, maybe I would have been captured."

"The Duke is serious, and it is an honor to serve the Duke and serve him." Alexander immediately stood up and saluted back.

"Next should be General Augustus's legionnaires, and the battle loss rate has reached forty percent. In particular, General Augustus bravely blocked them in the face of the charge of the Roland knights, and he was even more credited. ”

Augustus also stood up and said modestly: "I have just done my duty."

General Robin Hood also contributed a lot. If it weren't for General Robin Hood helping General Alexander provide long-range cover, I'm afraid General Alexander wouldn't have survived so easily. ”

"Not bad, not bad." Hearing Guy's words, Alexander immediately agreed.

Robin Hood took off his signature Ranger top hat. He saluted and said, "The generals have praised it."

"And Hannibal's success in luring the opponent's heavy knights away also played a huge role."

Hannibal smiled and said, "I didn't do much, I just scolded a few times."

Alan smiled and said, "Hannibal, you can solve the other party's two thousand knights with your mouth, and your mouth is golden!" Haha!"

Listening to Alan's quip, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

Guy relented and continued, "But Lord Duke, your vassal, Lord Count Leon, was killed in the battle."

Alan froze, sighed slightly, and said, "Leon, I remember that he is from the Minsk region, is there anyone else in his family?"

"He has two young sons in his family who are not yet adults." LeBlanc said faintly.

Alan squinted at LeBlanc. "The contribution of the Count of Lyon is enormous, and I, Alan Ouranos, cannot treat him badly. How is Minsk now? Is it developing well?"

A flash of emotion flashed in LeBlan's eyes and she said, "Minsk is a small place. None of the populations exceeded three thousand. ”

Alan nodded and said solemnly: "What happened to the Count of Lyon is sad, and we can't make his family even more unfortunate. I have decided to change the Count of Lyon to a restaurant of ten thousand households! All the nobles who, like the Count of Lyon, lost their lives in the war. The fiefs were all changed to food estates. Plus 3rd class!"

Everyone looked at each other and said in unison, "Lord Duke."

LeBlanc, on the other hand, sighed, although he knew that Alan did not trust the aristocratic system, but when he really saw Alan start to use the knife, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

Allen's generals were all promoted by Allen himself from the army, even if there were noble children in the army, but most of them were illegitimate children who had no inheritance rights and could not find a way out.

For them, Allen is their dependence. As for the nobility, it was not something they could get in the first place. For that matter. I saw why Allen emphasized the political background of soldiers when he was recruiting.

After dealing with some post-war chores, the next step is to plan the next step.

Alan cleared his throat and said solemnly: "Everyone, the war is not over yet, although George VI lost this battle, but after all, the other party still has a kingdom as a backing, and it is very likely to make a comeback."

Guy still maintained the image of a military governor, and was the first to reply: "Don't worry, Lord Duke, we will not let up."

Alan nodded and continued: "Next, we will drive all the people from the towns around Tulga to the city of Tulga, and then burn all the houses and pollute all the water sources."

"Does the Duke want to be strong? But why don't we take advantage of the victory?" Leonardo asked, standing up.

Alan waved his hand and motioned for Leonardo to sit down and explained: "Don't look at this battle, we won, but our troops have suffered nearly half of the casualties, first of all, the two thousand heavy spearmen of the noble vassals were reimbursed under the charge of the knights of Roland, and then the thousand knights of Lyon were also killed and wounded, plus the casualties of Alexander and Augustus. None of this is enough to keep us fighting. ”

Allen paused, then looked at the sky and said: "Winter will soon be, winter operations are inconvenient, and now our logistics have no way to support our winter operations, so we will avoid winter first, and wait until the beginning of spring next year to continue the offensive."

Guy agreed, "Lord Duke is right, we should take a break for a while, the soldiers have just experienced a big battle, and they need to be prepared."

Alan patted Guy on the shoulder and said, "Guy, then the war here will be handed over to you for the time being." I'm going to take a trip to Ambrosi. ”

Guy looked at Alan suspiciously, and asked, "Why?"

Alan smiled slightly and said, "I shed so much blood for his Anmuxi Kingdom? If you don't compensate me a little, how can you talk about the past?"

Looking at Allen's wicked smile, everyone nodded yes.

LeBlanc said, "Do you want me to go with you?"

Alan smiled lightly and said, "Let Leonardo and me come with me, and it is enough to bring five hundred assault soldiers." You stay here, and if you have any information, hand it over to Guy as soon as possible, and Guy is fully responsible for the defense of Turga!"

Guy immediately stood up and said, "Obey the order, and I will do my best to serve the Duke and die!"

LeBlanc's eyes flashed slightly, but she still lowered her head and said, "Okay."

Alan looked at the thoughtful LeBlanc and shrugged. Looking back at the window, the leaves of the trees had begun to wither, and winter was coming. (To be continued.) )
