After more than half an hour, the battlefield was finally cleaned up, all the Qing troops were put into custody, the weapons and armor scattered on the ground were also collected and piled up, and the corpses were thrown into a dug pit and buried in a unified manner.

In this battle, Su Yan's command killed 431 people, most of them were conscripted spearmen, the only spearmen left only half of them, and the sword and shield men of the Zhongwu Battalion also lost nearly 100 people.

This is still the situation that the Qing army is in turmoil after falling into a trap, and has no intention of continuing to fight, it can bring so many casualties to Su Yan, if it is a head-to-head confrontation under normal circumstances, then he can't even think about it.

The casualties on Su Yan's side were huge, and Lin Zhong's troops also had a lot of casualties, but because they entered later, and the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers was much stronger than that of Su Yan's side, there were less than 600 of the more than 800 soldiers of the Righteous Army who could continue to fight after the battle.

In addition to the nearly 100 people who died in the battle with Su Yan during the day, more than 2,300 Qing soldiers and soldiers who participated in the battle actually had 1,714 people disarmed and surrendered, 428 people died, and only Ma Degong and more than 200 people escaped.

In addition to surrendering troops, Su Yan and the others also captured 1,500 waist knives, 450 spears, 350 military bows, more than 1,000 arrows of various types that could be used, more than 100 firearms, and 150 gunpowder and projectiles.

In addition, there were 600 pieces of chain mail, 650 pieces of cotton armor, 900 pieces of leather armor, and more than 500 taels of gold and silver.

With these weapons and equipment, Su Yan decided to split them in half with Lin Zhong. In terms of weapons, Su Yan did not want spears, military bows, and firearms, and in exchange for all the waist knives, he gave him 300 pieces of chain mail, 325 pieces of cotton armor, and 450 pieces of leather armor.

The armor Su Yan is going to send it back to Dehua first, let the craftsmen repair and clean the armor, and then let the valuable line infantry equipment, the military uniform brought by the system infantry may still be suitable in Europe, but it can be placed in East Asia, where hot and cold weapons alternate, it is very alternative.

After dividing the spoils, Su Yan and Lin Zhong had a headache with the more than 1,700 surrendered troops, the number of these surrendered troops was almost more than their coalition army, if they were all brought to Yongchun, they were afraid that they would make trouble before the battle and ruin their own good deeds.

It's impossible to let them go like this, isn't letting them go back is just letting the tiger go back to the mountain, and letting them rearm themselves to be their enemies?

The only way to do this is to take these troops for your own use.

After thinking about it, Su Yan still decided to divide these Qing troops by five or five according to the way of distributing the spoils, and each person would get half, Lin Zhong didn't have any meaning in this, he just needed to replenish his troops, even if it was half a split, he could also use this to double his strength.

As a result, these Qing troops were re-disorganized and separated, and Su Yan also received 857 surrendered soldiers.

After being assigned to the surrendered troops, he re-adopted the previous method, ordered these surrendered soldiers to braid and grow their hair, and picked out some of the more famous people in the total sum, and killed them before the battle, deterring the surrendered troops, and then promised that as long as they joined him, they could also receive a military salary every month.

As a result, the Zhongwu battalion under Su Yan's command increased by 800 recruits.

Even so, Su Yan did not fully trust these surrendered troops, at this time it was close to the end of the month, he was ready to take Yongchun County, together with the previous Zhongwu battalion, to send these surrendered troops to the army barracks built at the beginning of next month, so that they could receive systematic "re-education", so as to play a role in thoroughly guaranteeing loyalty.

After some operation, in the evening, the coalition army carried torches and headed towards Yongchun County.

With the prestige of a great victory, the morale of the allied soldiers was high, so after marching for more than an hour, at night, the army came to the city of Yongchun.

But...... Looking at the empty city wall, Su Yan and Lin Zhong, who were riding horses in front of the formation, felt a little strange.

"Why is Yongchun County so quiet?" Lin Zhong was the first to ask.

"First send someone to persuade you to surrender and confirm what the situation in Yongchun County is."

Su Yan held his chin and suggested.

Lin Zhong agreed with his suggestion, and then sent a team of soldiers to the city gate, after nearly a stick of incense, just when Su Yan and Lin Zhong felt strange, the team of soldiers finally came back, and said with a happy expression: "General, the gate of Yongchun County is wide open, and the streets are empty, I waited to check on the city, and found that there were no defenders in the city, and the yamen was also unguarded, and the south gate was wide open, and it seemed that they had already fled." ”

"Ran away?"

Su Yan and Lin Zhong looked at each other, but they didn't expect that whether it was a guard general or a county order, there was not a single one left.

"Forget it, enter the city." Lin Zhong shook his head, put the doubts in his heart behind, and prepared to lead the army into the city, but he quickly remembered one thing and said to Su Yan: "Anguo, Yongchun was jointly won by you and me, and I don't take advantage of you, we will take the county government as the boundary, the east of the city will divide you, and the west of the city will divide me, how about it?" ”

"No problem." Su Yan nodded, he happened to be worried about the division of forces after taking the county seat, thinking about how to speak, if he didn't make it clear before entering the city, and then there would be a dispute later, it would be a fatal blow to the righteous army.

With that, the two of them each led their armies into the county seat and took over the city.

After taking over the city, the system did not sound the prompt to occupy the city, Su Yan guessed that this should be the reason why he did not fully control the entire county seat, and the other half was still in Lin Zhong's hands.

In the second half of the night, Yongchun County began to be lively, and the screams of civilian women sounded from time to time in the west of the city occupied by Lin Zhong all night......

……

At the same time, Lin Zhong's residence.

This is the home of a notorious landlord in Yongchun County, after Lin Zhong led the army into the city, he captured and killed the landlord's family under the leadership of Lin Xingzhu, and took this mansion for himself.

In the front hall of the mansion, Lin Zhong and his generals gathered together, and the lights flickered, stretching the figures in the hall.

"I have summoned you here this time for the future of our army."

On the main seat, Lin Zhong looked at the generals sitting on his left and right sides, and said in a deep voice.

"Although our army is lucky to capture Yongchun County, it is impossible for the Qing army to let our army occupy this place for a long time, and it will not be long before the Qing army will fight back, and how should we resist the Qing army's counterattack at that time?"

"Third brother, aren't we united with General Su's headquarters?" Lin Xian asked.

"yes, Union." Lin Zhong shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Having said that, after all, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and the small Yongchun cannot accommodate our two armies, and a conflict will definitely break out in the future, which is very fatal to our already weak rebel army."

Therefore, I am ready to leave here, go north to Tingzhou, or go south to Chaozhou, return to the command of the national surname, and give this place to Su Yan. ”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked!
