After a long time, I saw that the little girl Liu Na's crying slowly stopped, but I was sobbing and I drove away easily, and then let Chunxiang hold her and continue to walk towards the camel. I saw Baihu and the others walking towards me quickly, and when they arrived, they leaned over and said: "Qiqi Huang shopkeeper, the situation has been counted." Seeing that their expressions were very serious, I was also prepared, so I said: Say, it's okay. The white tiger said: A total of 16 people were killed in this eradication of bandits, including 7 from the Imperial Forest Army, 9 from the Imperial City Division, and a total of 36 wounded, including 8 seriously injured and 28 others lightly injured.

I also regretted after listening, so I didn't say anything but nodded slightly, and then went to the camel, and everyone followed silently, at this time the steward Wang caught up from behind and said to me: The shopkeeper looks, because we are not prepared, the medicine and bandaging supplies are now very scarce, and the injured people are currently placed in the car, and the items on the car are unloaded and placed on the side of the road.

After listening to this, I pondered for a while and said: immediately send an additional guard, and quickly inform Zheng Guocang, the governor of Xiangzhou, and ask him to prepare trauma medicine and stretchers, medical officers, and vehicles to come here to pick up people quickly. He also instructed the dead of Zheng Guocang in Zhizhou to be buried on the spot, and I will personally write an inscription to express condolences and commemorate their great and glorious deeds of sacrificing for the country and the people.

At the same time, in order to meet the emergency needs and not delay the treatment of the wounded, immediately coordinate with friends to see if they have brought relevant medicines and bandaging supplies, and also mobilize all the personnel, and people who know about herbal medicine immediately go up the mountain to collect medicine for bandaging, and finally send people to the mountain at the same time to collect medicines, bandaging supplies and medical officers.

Steward Wang immediately arched his hand and said: The shopkeeper is wise! Then he turned around and went to run an errand, and at the same time saw the guards and the three King Kongs around him at this time with ruddy eyes, I asked them strangely what was going on, how do I know that it is okay not to ask, as soon as I asked, they all knelt down, and then the white tiger was choked and said: The shopkeeper is so loving to the soldiers, so that we are very moved, usually if we sacrifice, in front of the civil officials are more than mentioned, not to mention any honor, today to see the shopkeeper so kind to our soldiers, why not people are very moved, the lower officials for the dead and injured brothers thank the shopkeeper for the great grace. After speaking, he led everyone to kowtow three times, the ground was full of small stones, they raised their heads and foreheads were bloodstained, I said: Hey, why is this so, it hasn't been dealt with over there, and now there are a few more injured of you. After saying that, he got into the car without looking back.

When I was sitting in the car and feeling sad for the fallen soldiers, Qiu Xiang lifted the curtain and brought a bowl of water: Shopkeeper, don't be angry with those generals, after all, they are all straight, come and drink some water. I took the bowl and took a sip and put it on the low stool table and said: I'm not for the White Tiger them, I am looking at the guards who accompany me day and night, and I have suffered so many casualties at once, or I am sorry for dealing with these little bandits. After all, it takes a long time to train such an elite guard.

Qiu Xiang immediately comforted: The shopkeeper, there will be casualties if there is a battle, and this is also unavoidable. There are two outcomes of death, one is obscurity and light as a feather, and the other is vigorous and heavy as Mount Tai. Like these guards, although they are dead, but their bravery and spirit will always live in our hearts, their death is heavier than Mount Tai, the slave believes that they are also smiling in the spirit of heaven, the slave believes that they do not want to see the shopkeeper so sad, they also hope that the shopkeeper will lead their brothers to continue to move forward and complete the great and glorious cause.

Qiu Xiang's words made me suddenly wake up, and at the same time, I couldn't help but wonder: Qiu Xiang, I usually don't see it, when did you understand so many great truths, and you are so good at comforting people. Qiu Xiang blushed instantly, and then bowed her head and said: The slave maid has learned a lot from the queen mother since she was a child, and she has learned a lot from the queen in the East Palace and the Inner Palace, and then she followed the shopkeeper all the way, and she was also exposed to it, and it was really the slave maid from the bottom of her heart just now.

I then nodded at Qiu Xiang, and at this time I was also full of energy, so I asked Qiu Xiang to call Xiao Liuzi in, and after Xiao Liuzi came in. I then instructed him to take out the four treasures of the study, I read him to write, written the Privy Council, the little six sons were ready in a moment, I said: I have recently had some understanding, thinking about the time of the Taizu Dynasty, how difficult it is, if it is not for the great generals of the family to help, it is difficult to have the current prosperity of the Great Song Empire, the so-called water needs to think of the source, as a monarch of later generations, it is more natural not to forget the book, so I decided to set up a monument in front of the temple of King Wu in Beijing, to commemorate the soldiers who died in the war of founding the country, defending the country, protecting the country, etc., so that they can enjoy the royal incense worship forever.

In this way, the horse was sent to the Beijing division quickly, and the ruling and Privy Council made Cai Mao's edict to be carried out immediately. After checking and confirming that it was correct, Xiao Liuzi stamped it with a big seal, sealed the paperwork and walked out of the car. At this time, Qiu Xiang threw an envious look at me, and I said: You don't have to look at me like this, it was all your words just now that made me wake up like a dream. Qiu Xiang said shyly: It's all caused by the emperor's sage.

At this time, the familiar voice of Wang Er, the leader of the guards of the Imperial City Division, sounded outside the car, Qi Qi shopkeeper, we have successfully completed the task. After listening to this, I walked out of the camel with Qiu Xiang, came to the coachman's position and sat down, looking at Wang Er, who was blackened by smoke, and the others, I couldn't bear it, so I said: The specific situation will be said another day, it is almost dark at present, and we are still on the mountain road. Let's get to the point.

Wang Er was stunned and said: Caught the two mountain kings, all of them are still alive, and took countless gold and silver treasures for the people along the way, the specific has not yet been counted, the cottage has been burned down, the pass has also been sealed with stones, more than 400 people who have been captured by bandits, more than 1,000 family members, we have lost 32 guards, and the Royal Forest Army has lost 78 brothers, mainly due to the unfamiliar terrain of the mountain road, and the other injured 100 brothers are currently concentrated on the side of the road.

At this time, I was already mentally prepared, but I still felt distressed as if I had been stabbed by something. But this is already the case, I also have to face it, I immediately jumped out of the camel, came to Wang Er's side and patted him on the shoulder, and also patted the shoulder of Wang Dazhuang, the head of the three teams of the Royal Forest Army in front of the palace, this move is everything in self-evident, I believe they can understand, and then asked them to find Steward Wang to deal with the aftermath together.

And I took Qiu Xiang and Xiao Liuzi to the front, only to see that the black pressure was all people, and the previous friends also took the initiative to join the queue to take care of the wounded, everyone was extremely busy, the roadside was full of all kinds of food, luggage, cloth and other materials unloaded from the car, the wounded were lying on the car, and some were leaning on the roadside trees, and at the same time a lot of simple stoves were set up on the roadside, and boiling water was used to disinfect the cloth, and the second was to soak some dry food for the wounded. The other guards and guards were on the trail of the road, and the bandits were piled up in piles, their hands tied behind their backs, and people were close to each other, connected by ropes in the middle, and then the two ends of the road were piled up with bags and boxes of all kinds of supplies, presumably carried down from the mountains.

After looking around, I asked Wang Dazhuang, the head of the three teams of the Imperial Forest Army in front of the palace, Wang Erzhu, the head of the guards of the Imperial City Division, Bai Hu, Steward Wang, and others to discuss, it is not early now, it is estimated that it will slowly get dark when the next day comes, so many people are in the field again, we have to find a way to spend tonight here. I don't know what you think.

And Wang Dazhuang and Wang Er were stunned that they were actually rough people, they had nothing to say about this kind of fine work, they just opened their eyes and looked at Steward Wang, after all, Steward Wang had experience, pondered for a while and said: Well, depending on the situation, it can only be like this, after all, there are so many people, it is not realistic to rush overnight, and the key is that there are so many bandits and supplies. Looks like we're going to spend the night here.

The problem of eating tonight is not very big, we bought a cart of dry food at the post station before, but this night compared with the day, there will be a temperature difference, and the mountainous area is even greater, I am afraid that the problem of keeping the wounded warm is a problem. Otherwise, I will discuss with that Jiangnan businessman, Zhang Dagui, his goods are all cloth, and we will buy some of his to keep the wounded warm.

Everyone nodded, this should be the best way to go. Steward Wang continued: There is also the safety of so many bandits, we must be vigilant. It's nerve-wracking. After all, there are so many people, and it's a big night.

Wang Er, the head of the guards of the Imperial City Division, was stunned and said: This is actually very simple, ask the brothers to tie them up tighter, and then let them rely on people to keep each other warm, and at the same time let them suffer from the cold, it is best to freeze without strength, oh, by the way, it is best to starve them for a night, so that they have no strength to run.

Baihu continued: This method is good, but the elderly, children, and women still need to give some dry food to eat. In front of the palace, Wang Dazhuang, the head of the three teams of the Royal Forest Army, also said: I think this is okay, the bandits can only provide them with water to drink. The elderly have to be taken care of, and many of them are also family members. As for the issue of guarding at night, I can send people to patrol and at the same time put the cavalry cordon farther away, so that there should be no major problems when running back and forth.

Steward Wang concluded: That's all it takes, what do you think of Shopkeeper Huang? I nodded, and that was it. By the way, Wang Dazhuang, just now I have sent someone to urge Zheng Guocang, the governor of Xiangzhou, you send someone to stretch the cordon a little longer, if Zheng Guocang, the governor of Xiangzhou, sends someone to come, notify me as soon as possible. Wang Dazhuang nodded, and everyone went their separate ways.

The White Tiger went to my chariot, and together with Suzaku, Xuanwu and the coachman, moved my chariot to an empty place, and emptied the surroundings, and then mobilized a group of guards to form two circles with the chariot as the center, so that nothing went wrong. I just smiled and shook my head.
