Although Chen Baxian's request did not belong to the content agreed before, it was not too rude.

Of course, Li Zhen did not have the right to decide this, and could only say that he would report the matter to the general Dou Luning after returning. Later, the two sides communicated on some details of cooperation, such as the Liang army's river defense area to be opened to the Wei army to a certain extent, so as to avoid clashes between the two sergeants.

After the communication between them was completed, Chen Baxian sent Li Zhenli out of the city, and he continued to devote himself to the handling of various affairs after the war.

Although the Liang army can also be called a complete victory, it is also an out-and-out tragic victory, the frontal battlefield is fierce, the Liang army soldiers suffered great casualties, and even in some local battlefields, the casualties of the soldiers are more serious than those of the Qi army.

This is also why Chen Baxian asked the Wei army to cooperate in recovering Qin County when he was obviously victorious, because at present, it is difficult for the Jiankang defenders to launch a high-intensity cross-river operation with their own strength.

Aside from the injuries of the soldiers, the damage to Jiankang City was also very serious. Not only have the fortifications of the city been damaged, but more seriously, the order of people's livelihood that has just been restored has suffered a serious blow to it, and a large number of soldiers and civilians in the city have fled and want to be appeased again, which is bound to be a long process.

Of course, the results of this battle are still very impressive. Even without taking into account the peripheral results seized by the Wei army, the number of Qi soldiers and horses killed and captured on the battlefield alone is very gratifying.

The Qi army crossed the river before and after and put into battle at least 70,000 or 80,000 troops, and it can be said that the entire army was wiped out after this battle. In addition to the Liang army's own resistance to battle and casualties on the frontal battlefield, it was also the Wei army's blockade of the retreat route of the Qi army in the peripheral area, so that the Qi army crossing the river had no way to retreat, and could only be obediently captured except to die in battle.

With the subsequent clearing and sorting of the battlefields around Jiankang, the results of this battle are more clearly presented. The number of Qi soldiers captured by the Liang army alone reached tens of thousands, and there were dozens of generals with names and surnames. The confiscated ordnance and staff were filled with several arsenals in Jiankang City, and more than 2,000 war horses were captured before and after.

Such a brilliant victory and such a considerable result also surprised and excited the Liang army. Since the Battle of Gangneung, Nanliang has been in a precarious and precarious state, and anyone can come up and step on it, but can only grovel and linger. However, after this battle, the blood and strength of the Jiangdong people were stimulated again, and Chen Baxian's prestige was completely shaped!

But compared with the general excitement of the soldiers, Chen Baxian and the senior generals were more complicated, and a thought came to their hearts: If Guabu can also be captured by the Liang army, how good it would be! If the military supplies of tens of thousands of troops can be captured, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to their post-war reconstruction and recovery!

Although there are no ifs in this world, there are well-meaning people. Soon Liyang sent back the decision of the Wei army general Dou Luning, not only willing to fund the Liang army of Jiankang City with 20,000 Shigu Su military rations, but also agreed to Chen Baxian's request that the Wei army would send troops to Daxian in the upper reaches of Chushui to cooperate with the Liang army to capture Qin County on the north bank.

Of course, the Wei army was not all unconditional, and Dou Luning then proposed to exchange a batch of Qi prisoners captured by the Liang army around Jiankang City, on the grounds that when the Northern Qi held the Western Wei accountable for betraying the alliance, these prisoners could be used with the Northern Qi Xuan and the Snake.

In order to show his sincerity, Dou Luning also arranged for boats to transport 3,000 stone of military rations to Jiankang City first. And Chen Baxian, after weighing it, also agreed to this condition proposed by the other party.

In fact, after the peak of rainfall has passed, the grain road between Jiankang and Sanwu has also resumed traffic, and Chen Baxian's nephew Chen Qian, who is stationed in Wuxing, has raised a batch of grain and grass to arrive in Jiankang. Moreover, when the soldiers were completely cleaning up the inside and outside of Jiankang City, they found a lot of old grain and old wheat in the temple near the left, which restored the basic food supply of Jiankang City.

However, of course, the more food, the better, especially the livelihood of Jiankang City has been seriously damaged, and a large amount of input is still needed to maintain the situation. Moreover, the Wei army was willing to continue to help cut off the surrounding passages of Qin County, so that the Liang army could fully capture Qin County, which was also more important than simple food support.

As for the captives who asked for an exchange, it was also

Not too much to ask. There were too many prisoners captured in this battle, and Chen Baxian did not have a proper way to deal with them at the moment.

Originally, he planned to behead all the governors and generals of the Qi army, and then kill all the strong and powerful generals, and the rest would be used as official slaves for consumption. As for absorbing and arming these Qi prisoners of war, it is still a relatively difficult task for Nanliang at present. Since the Hou Jing Rebellion, the Jiangdong people have feared and prejudiced the northerners and Huainan people, and it is difficult for them to integrate with each other.

Although he also knew in his heart that the Wei army's request for these prisoners of war might not really deal with the Northern Qi, he still nodded and agreed, except for Xu Sihui and other rebel generals who led foreign enemies to make trouble, the other Qi army soldiers and prisoners, the Wei army could send the governor to Jiankang City to select 5,000 people.

After reaching a consensus with each other, Li Zhen returned to Jiankang with the grain ship and was responsible for selecting prisoners of war.

Because of the first interaction and cooperation with Chen Baxian, Li Zhen began to participate in it, and the tasks were completed well, Tang Gong also intended to train him, and he had already ordered the capture of Liyang before Li Zhen sat in his city, and it was inevitable to deal with Jiangdong for a long time, so some of the affairs of each other were also arranged for him to be responsible.

This time, most of the grain sent by the Wei army was transferred by small boats, and the small boats carrying only a few stones or dozens of stones spread out on the river surface, and the scene was spectacular and huge.

This scene is very similar to the scene when Wang Seng Biao asked the Wei army for funding when he was crusading against Hou Jing's rebels in Yingzhou. However, at that time, Chen Baxian had not completed the meeting with Wang Seng, and Wang Seng was ashamed to talk about this old matter after the debate, so Chen Baxian had no impression of this matter.

But this did not delay him from recognizing the intentions of the Western Wei Dynasty, when he stood at the head of Stone City and saw those small boats that almost filled the river coming towards him, although he was funded, he still felt like a black fly rushing down his throat, which directly caused great psychological discomfort.

But at the moment, Chen Baxian didn't care about this, and when he got enough supplies, the soldiers also rested for a few days, and even launched an attack on Qin County on the other side.

As the Liang army began to counterattack Jiangbei, Dou Luning also sent his soldiers to Daxian in the upper reaches of Chushui. In fact, even if Chen Baxian did not make a request, entering Daxian is also an inevitable option for this military operation, Daxian and its nearby Xiaoxian are Huainan land routes, Hou Jing because he did not have enough boat division strength, since Shouyang after the army took this way to attack Liyang.

Now Liyang has fallen into the hands of the Western Wei Dynasty, and if you want to hold it for a long time, it will not be disturbed by the enemy in the north of the Yangtze River, and Daxian and Xiaoxian are also the places that must be taken.

The battle of the Liang army to capture Qin County was relatively smooth, most of the military strength of the Northern Qi in Huainan crossed the river to the south, and Zhao Yanshen was not known for his military strategy, and was besieged after the new defeat, and the Guangling city guard Liu Damo did not save him, so after the Liang army besieged the city for ten days, the defenders in the city were not supported, and directly abandoned the city and broke through, so that this important town in the north of the Yangtze River returned to the hands of the Liang army again.

When Chen Baxian led the army into Qinjun City, a trace of loss flashed on his face, and he sighed in his mouth: "If Wu Mingche is still in the army, he can give this city to guard."

Wu Mingche's family was originally from Qin County, and he was later recruited by Chen Baxian, and they were also compatible with each other. However, in order to attack and kill Wang Shengbi, Chen Baxian withdrew a large number of forces in Guangling, Jiangbei, causing Guangling, Qinjun and other important places in Jiangbei to be invaded by the Northern Qi, which also caused Wu Mingche's dissatisfaction, and since then led his troops to defect to the Western Wei.

Now that Qin County has recovered, the lost generals will not come back, which inevitably makes Chen Baxian feel stunned. And when the scouts marched into Daxian, where the Wei army had already begun to build a fort and prepare for a long-term garrison, it inevitably caused Chen Baxian to sigh.

From the perspective of the situation, this counterattack operation was naturally a complete victory, but if it is implemented into concrete results, it is difficult to say who has gained more. Although the Liang army eliminated a large number of Qi army's living forces after this battle, Chen Baxian also knew very well in his heart that with the current situation in Jiangdong, it was really difficult to take advantage of this achievement to recover Huainan on a large scale, and the gap left by the weakening of the Qi army's power in Huainan was undoubtedly to be picked up by the Western Wei.

After this battle, he finally became a well-deserved Jiangdong talker, but from the perspective of the larger pattern and the longer-term situation, there has always been a huge shadow on his head, and he doesn't even know what efforts to break through the cover of this shadow.

After recovering Qin County, Chen Baxian arranged for the general Xu Du to stay here to guard the only important town in Jiangbei, and he led the expedition to return to Jiankang. At the same time, Xu Ling and his entourage, who had sent an envoy to Chang'an in the Western Wei Dynasty, also returned to Jiangdong.
