The battle on the battlefield has long ended, the sun is slowly exerting its power, and the temperature has risen significantly. Due to the hot weather, if these corpses were exposed to the sun all the time, they would soon attract flies and insects, and the rotting corpses would lead to a large-scale plague epidemic, which was well known to the soldiers of the Mawei Army, let alone the superior generals.

Yu Changlun, the commander of the First Brigade of the First Division, was killed in battle, and the three battalion commanders were left with Sun Desheng still intact, but he was only slightly injured, Zhang Dabiao had already died in battle, and Guo Ziyi was seriously injured and was still in a coma, so he was afraid that he would not be able to live. In the three battalions, almost all the officers above the squadron leader level were killed and wounded, even the squad leaders were not left, and there were less than 700 of the 3,000 officers and men of the 1st Brigade, and all of them were wounded, and there were 300 seriously wounded. In a word, this first brigade is considered to be disabled, although it can replenish the newly trained recruits, but if you want to restore the combat effectiveness of the first brigade, it will take a long time to polish.

On the side of the artillery battalion position, although it repelled the onslaught of the Wu cavalry, it also suffered more than half of its own casualties, and even the gunners who operated the artillery were killed and wounded nearly 100 people. The infantry army has no armor on their bodies, and the bows and arrows of the Wu army are also a great threat to them, and all the dead and wounded in the artillery position are because of the bows and arrows, and the power of the bows and arrows at a distance of dozens of meters is no less than the muskets in the hands of the soldiers. It's also a good thing they're on the slope. Otherwise, I am afraid that there will be more of them.

Two hours of time. The wounded horsetail soldiers on the battlefield were all moved to their own camps for treatment. This is not a temporary battalion of the 1st Division, but a battalion of the Cavalry Division on this side of Tiger Ridge. However, after the wounded of the Mawei First Division retreated from the battlefield, they were immediately greeted by more than 100 medical soldiers for treatment, cleaning the wounds, disinfecting, and bandaging the wounded with spirits.

All the wounded can still be treated on the side of the Mawei Army. Although the captured Wu army was more wounded, no one wanted to pay attention to them at this time. The seriously injured Sergeant Wu was killed directly on the battlefield, and those who were left behind were only the wounded who were not seriously injured, and of course there were many intact. The unarmed Wu prisoners, who had their weapons confiscated, were divided into two groups and taken into custody by the Mawei soldiers. Since the number of Wu prisoners was still too large, reaching more than 3,000, more than three times the number of guards and soldiers of the Mawei Army, they had to be connected with ropes.

When the sun rose overhead, Jiang Yuanxun led a battalion of cavalry to attack the Wu army camp and returned victoriously, escorting 2,000 Wu army baggage soldiers to the battlefield, and these Wu army baggage soldiers also carried fifty carts of tools. The car was full of shovels and other things, and these people had come to dig the pit. Otherwise, these eight or nine thousand corpses are nowhere to be placed, such a hot weather. The corpses had to be buried deeply, and the previous Wu prisoners had no tools in their hands, so it was obviously impossible for them to dig a pit.

"Divisional Commander, Divisional Commander!" The original battlefield left a battalion of cavalry in charge of more than 2,000 Wu prisoners to clean the battlefield, and more than 1,000 cavalrymen who were born to love were stationed in the camp with the wounded. The large battalion of the cavalry division was originally only enough for the cavalry officers to be stationed, but at this time, all of them were given up first to let the wounded rest. The cavalry officers and soldiers took some prisoners to dismantle and transfer the original battalion of the First Division, and set up a lot of tents temporarily. At night, the cavalry warriors did not have to worry about having no place to live.

Cai Qiang of the reconnaissance brigade led several scouts to escort one person into the camp, and as soon as he entered the camp, he saw Jiang Yuanxun and shouted loudly: "Division commander, look at who I brought back?" As he spoke, he took a few more steps forward and pushed one of the people who was escorted by him forward, and the man immediately fell to the ground.

"Wu Yingji!" Jiang Yuanxun was depressed about letting go of Wu Yingji, the commander of the Wu army, and sent out a lot of cavalry to pursue without finding it, but he didn't expect to be escorted to his eyes suddenly. "Where did you find him? By the way, shouldn't you kid be over there in Yongxin County? ”

"Hehe, division commander, Yongxin County is a small city, the Wu army left there is still the worst, although we only have two hundred people, but there have been dozens of brothers infiltrated the city before, the night before yesterday Ying Waihe suddenly broke the small county seat, most of the six hundred Wu army defenders in the city were killed, and the captured were one hundred and sixty people, and Yongxin County was taken, I took a few brothers along the northeast road to see if I could find any useful information, Who knew that this morning we walked to the head of the Qingjiang River and met the five Wu cavalry galloping towards the fast horse, hehe, we and a few brothers fought an ambush, no, we caught this guy! ”

"Good! Okay, your kid has made a great contribution now, he is Wu Sangui's own nephew, Wu Yingji, the commander of the Wu army who invaded our territory this time, this guy took advantage of the chaos on the battlefield in the morning to escape, and Lao Tzu is worried that he didn't catch anyone! This is a big credit for you! Jiang Yuanxun laughed. Wu Yingji! Let's meet again! It's been almost 20 years since we last met, and after all, it's been a big family, so many years, you're still so white, you don't look like a brave general who can fight well! ”

"If you want to kill, you will kill, and humiliating things are not done by famous generals!" Wu Yingzhi was still quite tough at this time, his hands were tied, his hair was scattered, and there was a lot of mud sticking to his face, looking very wolf.

"Well, you're right, but I'm not a bullshit celebrity!" Jiang Yuanxun first nodded when he heard Wu Yingqi's words, and then suddenly kicked out a kick and kicked Wu Yingqi head-on. "Damn, you don't want to stay in Hunan, you have to go to Jiangxi to do something. Don't you know that this Ji'an Mansion is already the territory of our Mawei military control? Wu Sangui's old boy is not authentic, as soon as his inscription arrives, most of our governors will be the first to respond to him, now what are you doing, you will take revenge! ”

The more Jiang Yuanxun thought about it, the more angry he became, and continued to scold: "You kid can, it doesn't matter to Lao Tzu how much your soldiers and horses have lost, but the damage to the soldiers of our Mawei Army is great, we haven't suffered so many losses so far, more than 3,000 soldiers were killed in a battle, this is a precedent for our Mawei Army, if you don't cut you off this time, you won't be able to solve the hatred in our hearts!" Escort him down, immediately transfer him to Fuzhou, and hand it over to the Governor of the Metropolitan to deal with personally! After scolding, Jiang Yuanxun sighed again and said. He knew in his heart that this Wu Yingqi's identity was not ordinary, if he was killed on the battlefield, it would be forgotten, since he was captured, the right to dispose of it was no longer in his hands, and Fuzhou could use Wu Yingqi to obtain greater benefits.

"The order goes down and continues to strengthen the fortifications of the camp, and the prisoners are taken up in another batch, and the trench must be widened again before the sun goes down. Then send some scouts to focus on exploring the surrounding areas of Ji'an Prefecture, and at the same time contact secret sites in the city, and report immediately if they find any changes in the city. After catching Wu Yingzhi, Jiang Yuanxun, who was in a good mood, ordered again, at this time, the battle with the Wu army was over, but the Qing army in the city must be defended at all times.

Now, the situation of the Mawei Army and the Qing Army began to be reversed, there were many wounded on the side of the Mawei Army, and there were more than 7,000 Wu Army prisoners who were captured twice, most of the troops had to guard the big camp, and the only one who could be separated was a cavalry battalion of 1,000 people, and the 2,000 auxiliary soldiers who were escorted to the Wu Army's baggage team that was cleaning the battlefield were not counted as regular Wu Army soldiers at all, and they had no combat strength at all, so it didn't matter if they gave up these people temporarily.

Fortunately, a large number of materials of the Wu army were captured in this battle, plus the materials originally stored in the two camps of the Mawei Army, which were enough for the soldiers and prisoners in the Mawei Army camp to spend a month. With this month's time, the follow-up other units of the Mawei Army have long been able to reinforce them. According to the usual marching speed of the Mawei Army, after receiving the joint report from Jiang Yuanxun and Bai Xianzhong, it is estimated that the nearest Ningdu Prefecture can immediately dispatch 3,000 soldiers and horses to arrive within five days.
