Not long after the start of the war, the sky began to be gloomy, the temperature was relatively low, something fell on his face from the sky, Qin Dong felt a little cold, stretched out his hand to touch it, only touched a section of water stains, looked up, it turned out that there was goose feather snow in the sky again.

On the battlefield in the distance, Qin Dong's soldiers were cleaning the battlefield, Moldo's soldiers were lining up, tied with ropes, their hands strung together and walking slowly, the wounded war horses were lying on the cold and damp grass and kept screaming, for those Moldor soldiers who were seriously injured to the point that they could not be saved, Qin Dong's order to his soldiers was to give them another knife to help them relieve their pain.

In addition, all that came into view was corpses lying on the ground, and there were corpses everywhere, except for people and horses, each corpse had a different appearance, some of which were still a living life a few minutes ago, and a silent corpse after a few minutes.

In addition to the soldiers who are busy cleaning up the seriously wounded, there are also soldiers who are carrying their own side and Moldor lightly wounded, two soldiers carrying a wounded, for the treatment of the wounded, Qin Dong and the concept of people in this era is completely different, as long as it can be saved, whether it is his own wounded or the wounded of the enemy side, he will order the medical officer to rescue, only the seriously injured who cannot be saved under the current medical conditions will order someone to give them another knife to help them on the road.

The soldiers sent to count the spoils of war sorted and stacked knives, swords, spears, spears, arrows, and riding bows, and there were special men who counted them, as well as the lightly wounded, seriously wounded, and the dead.

While Qin Dong was thinking about what he was going to do next. An accompanying logistics officer took a roll of parchment and reported: "My lord, the battle damage and capture have been counted!" ”

Qin Dong exhaled a breath of hot air, rubbed his somewhat cold face, and ordered, "Read it!" ”

"Yes. My lord! The officer read according to the parchment record: "Our army suffered two hundred and twenty-one lightly wounded, one hundred and twelve seriously wounded, and one hundred and sixty-eight killed, of which thirty-three heavy cavalry were lightly wounded and sixty-four were killed, and one hundred and eighty-eight light cavalry were lightly wounded and one hundred and twelve seriously wounded." One hundred and four killed!

Eight hundred and forty-nine people were killed in the battle, fifty-nine were seriously wounded, and 453 were lightly wounded. Surrender 1,822! That's the way it is, do you have any other instructions? If not, the subordinates still have something to do, so they will go first."

Qin Dong waved his hand and asked the logistics officer to go and get busy first. The ratio of enemy losses to us has reached more than four times. This ratio still made Qin Dong more satisfied, in fact, he was not much different from Mordo in terms of troops, and this time he only brought more than 3,000 horsemen.

The reason why he was able to achieve such a great result, Qin Dong himself also analyzed the reasons in his heart, first, his cavalry has undergone strict and systematic training, unlike the Hun cavalry in Mordo, although the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers is not bad. However, there is a lack of systematic technical and tactical training, and there is a lack of cooperation between them. In particular, there is a lack of collective cooperation.

Second, the tactics were properly adopted, the main battlefield Qin Dong used the tactics of heavy cavalry assault from the middle and outflanking on both flanks, and on the contrary, he not only personally went into battle to charge, so that the army could not adjust his tactics in time, but also did not adopt any tactics in the whole battle, but just like other Hun armies, blindly did not have any formation of loose charge.

Third, Mordo committed the taboo of dividing troops, so that Qin Dong broke each one, if Mordo did not disperse more than 3,000 cavalry, but concentrated his troops, or if the reinforcements came earlier, Qin Dong believed that he would not be able to win so easily.

Fourth, the reason for the matching of weapons and equipment and the types of troops is an important reason for Qin Dong's victory in this battle, the facts have proved that in terms of charging formation, the heavy cavalry is undoubtedly the overlord of this era, and Qin Dong's arms are very well matched, light cavalry and archers cooperate, archers and heavy cavalry cooperate, crossbow cavalry can block the enemy's cavalry cluster charge with the continuous fire strike ability of the crossbow, and in terms of weapons and equipment, Qin Dong's heavy cavalry is all equipped with four-meter and two-long spears, and is also equipped with a new extremely sharp horse chopping knife, The light cavalry also had swords, the archers were equipped with a far longer range than any cavalry of the era, and the crossbow cavalry, a new class of troops, whose continuous fire strike was a chill to the reinforcements of Mordo.

For the person of Mordo, Qin Dong thinks that this person is more than brave, and the ability to change the battle is somewhat insufficient, Qin Dong thinks that if he encounters the situation on the battlefield just now, he will definitely not lead the team to charge the heavy cavalry, and he will not lead the team himself, how can a supreme commander lead the team to charge into battle at the beginning of the battle? Even if you want to charge, you must be near the end of the battle, because in the end both sides are fully committed, the tactics that should be used have been used, Moldor is obviously a fierce general who likes to rush to the front line, not a good commander, he led the charge and did not even know that his left and right flanks were surrounded, and it was really unreasonable to be undefeated.

Although Moldor is not good at commanding and is only suitable for leading the charge, this person has an advantage, he is very loyal, which is one of the reasons why Qin Dong admires him, originally Qin Dong sent someone to recruit Moldo, but Moldor did not agree, he thought that since he chose to be loyal to Enek, he could no longer be loyal to others, he was not willing to be an official under Qin Dong, he was only willing to be a herdsman, if Qin Dong did not let him be an ordinary herdsman, and did not let him go, he asked Qin Dong to kill him, This made Qin Dong quite surprised and a little regretful at the same time.

For those who have chosen to surrender, Qin Dong has always not killed, surrender is not the same as surrender, surrender is a prisoner, surrender is his own people, Qin Dong admires Moldo's loyalty, if Moldor does not serve him, then it is estimated that more than half of the officers under this person will not surrender, which makes it difficult for Qin Dong to deal with this group of prisoners.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Qin Dong led his troops to Moldo's old nest Yangbor, and now he was not in a hurry to go back, he had to take some time to go to Yanbol to declare to all the herdsmen and other ethnic groups in Moldo's territory that he was already the master of this land.

The herdsmen of Hambol had already been taken away by Zheli who had led his troops here, and Moldor had taken almost all the men over the age of fifteen in his territory for the sake of this battle. The old and weak women and children left behind.

The herdsmen of Hambor, and the people of other ethnic groups, greeted Qin Dong with wooden expressions under the control of the Zheli army, and the herdsmen were forced to stand on both sides of the road to welcome Qin Dong.

Qin Dong, who was walking on horseback, observed the expressions of the herdsmen, for this expression. Qin Dong was familiar with him, and he didn't expect him, the herdsmen who killed their husbands, fathers, or sons, to welcome him.

Mordo rode a horse and followed behind Qin Dong, all the weapons on his body were taken down, and there were several cavalrymen around to guard him, it was not that Qin Dong was not at ease with him, it was that Qin Dong's generals were not at ease with him. Dejected, lifeless, Mordo rode on horseback and let the horses carry him forward, and behind him several of his men. These were all his centurions, some of them were wounded, some were intact, and a few were killed in battle.

Qin Dong rode to the front of the big tent belonging to Mordo in an indifferent gaze. Turning his head, he saw a wooden platform next to him. It may have been the place where Mordo usually spoke to his soldiers and herdsmen.

"Let everyone gather in front of the high platform!" Qin Dong gave a word to Tuolong, then dismounted and walked onto the high platform.

The order was conveyed to Zheli, who was in charge of the Xiongnu herdsmen and the people of other nationalities, and Zheli sent men to ride horses and run fast in front of them, shouting and demanding that all the herdsmen, other residents, and the captives gather in front of the high platform.

Under the coercive measures, everyone was driven to the front of the high platform, inside and out, tens of thousands of people, in addition to nearly 2,000 prisoners, tens of thousands of old and weak women and children.

Qin Dong didn't wait long, and the personnel had arrived. Now there is no sound other than the incessant crying of some babies. Later, perhaps the babies instinctively felt the unusual atmosphere around them and stopped crying.

"Maybe you hate me to death in your hearts now, and you want to eat my flesh and drink my blood!" Qin Dong stood straight on the high platform and said the first sentence in front of the tens of thousands of captives and the old and weak women and children below.

"But I know it's human nature, and I don't get angry, because I know that no one can smile at the enemy who killed their husband, or father, or son! But am I really your enemy? I sue you, I am not, I am definitely not your enemy, I and my army only received an order to attack you, not that we took the initiative to attack you, we received an order from the royal court, I am a soldier, my soldiers are also soldiers, soldiers can only obey, it is impossible to disobey orders!

And there is never a right or wrong between the two armies to fight, and if it were me and my army that were defeated today, then our wives and children, parents, brothers and sisters would also regard your sons, husbands, fathers, and other people who fought under Moldor as enemies!

Why should we kill each other, why can't we live in peace? Although I am a Han Chinese, I have been here for many years, and I have long regarded myself as one of you, and most of my generals and soldiers are Huns like you, so why should we Huns kill each other? Our population was already small in the long process of migration, and our population was even smaller due to cannibalism, and now the Skirs, Ostrogoths, and Gepids who belonged to us began to move, and if we killed each other again, their impatient people would surely hide from the side and watch our jokes, and they wished that we would lose both, and then they could attack us while we were weak, and drive us down from dominance and into slaves, and become what they could bully at will. The object of slaughter!

Brothers and sisters, fathers and uncles, we should be united, we can no longer kill each other, we must be tightly united as a family, only in this way can our strength be stronger, I and my soldiers sincerely apologize for the loss of your husband, son, and father, we don't want such a thing to happen, no matter how much you treat me, how much you resent me, but now I declare that in the next three years, of course, no one of you, any family, will not have to pay tribute, You don't have to hand over even a single wool, the proceeds of your labor will be yours, and after three years you will have to pay the same taxes as the people of my other realms, and during these three years, if anyone asks you to pay taxes under various names, you can come to me and I will do justice to you, and besides, the minor children of the soldiers who died in this battle will be raised by me, and although they were my enemies, their families have now become the people living in my realm, Their bravery, fearlessness, and loyalty are worthy of our admiration and learning, and their orphans will receive a gold coin every month for their living expenses, which will not always change, but will change according to the changes in prices, and when prices rise, the cost of living will also increase, and when prices fall, the cost of living will not decrease, until they reach the age of sixteen and have the ability to live independently."
