Seeing that his subordinates were panicking like lost dogs, and even dropped their weapons one after another, waiting for the officer to take the lead as a prisoner, and then looking at the Chinese soldiers who were advancing step by step a stone's throw away were shrinking the dense encirclement little by little, Coreza finally sighed helplessly:

"Alas! Virgin Mary, it's not that I don't do my best, it's that you have given us a revelation of an uncertain future...... "The so-called defeat is like a mountain, the wall is falling and everyone is pushing it, and Coreza has no choice but to make the "right" and only feasible choice in this situation.

"Okay, we'...... Surrender! ”

"Surrender! We surrendered! The Rakshasa soldiers shouted like a carnival, and they all knelt on the ground and raised their hands high...... This situation made the Chinese soldiers very uncomfortable, so they had to hurriedly report to the Chinese army.

The greed for life and fear of death at this critical moment made Lan Bai very disdainful:

"Surrender? Surrendered so soon? It's a bastard! It's better to destroy them with one brain, and take credit for it anyway with your head. ”

"What! Lao Lan, are you really old and confused? These Rakshasas are good materials for sacrificing prisoners at noon! Don't show your face, I won't persuade you. But I, Jishihak, care a lot! No, surrender! Jishiha hurriedly reversed.

Lan Bai may not understand this kind of strangeness, but Shi Tingzhu on the side is very clear - Ji Xiha is not really eager to seek merit, but this battle, for him is really not enjoyable, which leads to this attitude. This old general, he wanted to maximize the formation and co-opt these Rakshasa people, so that he could be a "sparring partner" for himself. to increase their Mongolian blue flag against the Rakshasa bandit army! Besides, looking at this leader called Koreza just now, he was still a little level at the critical moment, at least he dared to fight in front of the horse formation and arrange the troops. Those who are in the army will look down on talented soldiers. As for the surrender, it can also be explained in the future by the sentence "those who know the times are handsome".

So, Shi Tingzhu, the most suitable "peacemaker", spoke:

"The two generals, the lower officials thought that more than 200 enemies had been killed in this battle. Today, there are less than 300 Rakshasas left. It can be said that the military achievements are outstanding. If we don't, we will surrender to them, and report it to the emperor. Now that they have all surrendered, they must be stored according to the custom. In the future, whether they will live or die or be decided by the imperial court. ”

"Haha. Lao Shi is right. Let the court decide! Let's take it first! Ji Xiha was very satisfied with Shi Tingzhu's help. Grinning proudly.

"That's it! Let's go back first, and ask the general to get an idea first! "Two to one, Lan Bai can only follow the trend. Otherwise, it will be difficult to deal with the crime of "killing and surrendering". It's just that his words once again highlighted the position of the great general Jidu.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying in China that "the one who kills and surrenders is unknown": when the two armies face each other, when the victory and defeat have been divided, it is unkind to slaughter the soldiers who lay down their arms and surrender! The cycle of heaven, retribution is unpleasant, and in the dark, there is a providence. The Manchu Qing government, which had been in the customs for more than ten years, gradually accepted this traditional view of "benevolent governance". With the gradual retreat of the Southern Ming regime, more and more Ming prisoners on the battlefield were not wantonly killed as in the early Qing Dynasty, but were all surrendered and used for their own use.

For this change, Lan Bai is not unaware as a witness. Moreover, as a special case, there is also the latest "precedent" that he already knows about the Rakshasa bandits-Sha'er Huda has surrendered more than 100 Rakshasa soldiers, and he will enter Beijing to offer prisoners in the near future! Because of the inconvenience of transportation, what Lan Bai didn't know was that at this time, for those Rakshasa troops, the noon gate prisoner ceremony had been successfully carried out.

"Yes, please watch it!" Zishiha wisely took a positive and cooperative stance.

In this small-scale battle, which was later called the "Battle of Suwu Lake", in addition to the more than 200 Rakshasas who died in the battle, more than 200 people became prisoners of the Qing Dynasty, including more than 20 "strange" carriages and grain and grass, and 300 old and broken arquebuses that even the Qing soldiers could not look at. These achievements even surpassed the Battle of Humar!

It can be said that in 1655, all the main combat forces in the Russian Far East lost nearly a quarter at once, which can be described as a great loss of vitality! However, the losses of the Qing army were less than 100 people, and most of them were the soldiers of Wuenqi's "half of the bull" who fought more with less before the "Great War".

Ulan-Ude City, the Great Tent of the Great General, Aung Bang Zhang Jingjidu.

"Hahaha, the three generals have worked hard in this battle, and Jidu deeply admires it!" Jidu picked up a glass of wine, raised his eyebrows, and said respectfully.

"The general is polite, and this result is all thanks to the general's strategy!" Lan Bai also raised his glass and smiled.

"Lord Lanbai's attack is just right, those Rakshasas are simply messing with themselves!" Shi Tingzhu also praised Lan Bai by the way.

Indeed, the main cavalry force of Lan Bai was like a withering and decaying yesterday, "chasing and killing" the hard-fought No. 100 Rakshasa cavalry with nowhere to hide, and even in the end, regardless of their own infantry battle formation, it was simply a great achievement.

"Humph! Do you still say good things for Lao Lan? If it weren't for his incompetence, how could he let those dozens of Rakshasa cavalry not be wiped out, and still run back to the camp? Hum! It's a good thing to spoil Lao Tzu! Jishiha suddenly slammed down his glass and glared at Lan Bai angrily.

"You...... You old Jixiha, you don't thank me but blame me, general, this is simply unreasonable! Lan Bai feigned displeasure, but did not mean to be angry in the slightest.

"Haha, General Lanbai, General Jixiha, you have all made great contributions. If it weren't for the decisive mobilization of 1,000 Mongolian blue-flag cavalry under your command to block the retreat of the Rakshasas from the south, maybe they would not have run to the Suwu Lake. Come and come, it's all a great achievement, and this general will write it well on the battle report to the imperial court! ”

Ji Du smiled and played a round game, naturally knowing that although the two old men Ji Xiha and Lan Bai were not convinced by anyone, it was impossible for them to really resent.

"General, after this battle, there are nearly 500 Rakshasa prisoners in the army, can we arrange for someone to go back and sacrifice the prisoners?" Shi Tingzhu took a sip of wine, even if he changed the subject.

"Yes, let's take prisoners for a good time. This time it's a lot bigger than the exploits of Sha'er Huda and his son, right? In the battle of his Humar, he captured only a hundred people, and we have five hundred! Ji Xiha suddenly became interested, as if he had seen the reward from the imperial court.

"Well, you're right. However, I thought that the captives who would be escorted back to Beijing would be at most 300. Jidu put down his wine glass with a smile and said with a flicker.

"What? How did it become three hundred? Isn't it five hundred? The Rakshasas who are guarded separately in each camp must add up to more than five hundred! Ji Xiha shouted in a loud voice, and Lan Bai and Shi Tingzhu both shook their heads slightly.

"General Jishiha is not in a hurry. I mean only those Cossack cavalry and Rakshasa infantry, not those craftsmen and craftsmen. Jidu patiently explained.

"Why? What are they left to do? Zishiha asked.

"I don't know if you have noticed, but among these Rakshasa craftsmen, there are some people who have a skill."

"So what? In the Han army under Lao Shi, what kind of craftsmen are not? The craftsmanship of the Rakshasa people is stronger than that of the Han people? Jishihashan did not understand the meaning of this.

"Haha, General Jixiha, don't say it, this idea is what I dedicated to the general!" Shi Tingzhu had to come out and make a statement.

"What? Your idea? Ji Xiha was speechless, puffing out his cheeks and waiting for two or three people who had already "colluded" to explain to him.

"Not bad. General, the subordinate noticed that among the captured Rakshasas, some craftsmen did have special skills, and even my army was in short supply of such people. Shi Tingzhu continued.

"Who? Tell me about it! When he thought that his military exploits had changed from "five hundred" to "three hundred" prisoners, Ji Xiha was very annoyed.

"The one who makes the powder!" Shi Tingzhu responded decisively, and Lan Bai and Jidu on the side nodded their heads in approval.

"Powder? You mean black medicine for shotguns? Zishiha understood a little, and her eyes narrowed very attentively, waiting to hear what was going on.
