The Liaodong Army lost more than 3,000 killed and more than 6,000 wounded. More than 10,000 people defected to the Qingzhou Army, and in this battle, the Qingzhou Army killed only dozens of people and wounded hundreds of people, which can be said to be a huge victory.

Lu Bu listened to Yu Ban's suggestion and buried Gongsun Du with a ceremony, but this Gongsun Du's family was finished, his son died in battle, and he had no grandson, and the huge family property was not inherited, so it was confiscated.

The officials of the original Liaodong County Yamen were all retained, especially Gongsun Du's henchman Yangyi was also subdued by Lu Bu.

At this moment, Panjin County Gongsun Song led 3,000 cavalry to aid Xiangping City, a few days ago Gongsun Du heard that Lu Bu was coming, so he ordered the surrounding counties of Xiangping to rush to Xiangping.

Because although the area of Liaodong County is very large, Xiangping City, the center of population, politics and economy, once Xiangping City is lost, Liaodong County will be finished.

Therefore, Gongsun Du immediately ordered Gongsun Song of Panjin County to immediately rush to the aid of Xiangping City.

In fact, Gongsun Song walked halfway to Xiangping City has been breached, but in this era the information transmission is limited, Gongsun Song does not know the progress of the war at all, and rushes to Xiangping City, when crossing the river, he finds a newly repaired wooden bridge, saying that it is repaired by Shangjia to facilitate crossing the river.

Gongsun Song didn't care either, and led the army across the bridge.

Three thousand people, not too much, no less, the team is quite long.

Gongsun Song crossed the bridge first, and there were about 1,000 people after 3,000 people.

At this time, suddenly thousands of horses were galloping in front of him, and the dust was flying, and the enemy cavalry came.

Hua Xiong took the lead with a big knife in his hand.

Gongsun Song was shocked, the other party came with cavalry, and he was also a cavalry, if he fought in formation, he would not suffer a loss, but in this situation in front of him, only half of his 3,000 cavalry crossed the bridge, and he attacked halfway, and he suffered the most at this time.

"Array, array." Gongsun Song shouted and beckoned his cavalry to assemble.

At this time, Hua Xiong arrived, and when he saw Gongsun Song, he knew that he was the main general, and immediately yelled: "Look at the knife." ”

Hua Xiong is a general under Lu Bu and a veteran of the Xiliang Army, in order to stabilize the Xiliang Army, Lu Bu treated Hua Xiong very highly, and rewarded Hua Xiong with a descendant of a red rabbit horse, which is a brown horse, big and fast.

Hua Xiong's horse was as fast as flying, and the knife was as fast as lightning, and the brush went straight to Gongsun Song's neck.

Gongsun Song hurriedly parried, but after three rounds, he was already in chaos and was slashed by Hua Xiong.

Seeing that the main general was killed, Gongsun Song's army scattered and fled.

Hua Xiong led the cavalry to pursue bravely, annihilating hundreds of enemies, surrendering more than 1,000, and leaving more than 1,000 enemy soldiers to flee.

Huaxiong did not chase after him, because the troops in the west were limited, a total of five or six thousand people, and it was estimated that only these three thousand cavalry could be mobilized, and now they have lost half of them, and they are no longer able to support Xiangping.

Hua Xiong won the battle and happily led the army to Xiangping City.

Halfway through, I met the Ranger Commander who came to patrol and report the news.

"General Hua, the general's military order."

"Oh, what a military order."

"Xiangping City has been taken, and the general ordered you to rush to Panjin County as soon as possible after the handover and take Panjin County."

Hua Xiong took the military order and looked at it, this was Lu Bu's handwritten letter, covered with Lu Bu's tiger talisman.

Lu Bu specially arranged for Huaxiong to restrain military discipline and treat the soldiers and the people well after taking Panjin County. If you have difficulties, you can always keep in touch.

Hua Xiong looked at it, there was nothing to hand over, it was nothing more than more than 200 wounded soldiers and more than 1,000 surrendered soldiers, these soldiers were handed over to the rangers and asked to take them back to Xiangping City.

Hua Xiong turned his head and discussed with Li Su: "Li Junshi, do you feel that we need reinforcements?" ”

Li Su shook his fan: "The population of Liaodong County is already small, Panjin County only has thousands of troops, and the main generals have been beheaded by you, what kind of climate can others become, we have enough troops, just kill them directly." ”

Hua Xiong handed over the military merits, turned around and went back to take the county seat.

In Xiangping City, Lu Bu was very happy to receive the battle report from Huaxiong: "Hahaha, Huaxiong fought very well, beheaded Gongsun Song, and subdued more than 1,000 cavalry. ”

Yu Ban proposed next to him: "The cavalry of Liaodong County is brave and the war horses are tall, as long as they are properly trained, they are excellent cavalry." ”

Lu Bu nodded: "These cavalry will be handed over to you for training for the time being, and arrangements will be made after the people from all walks of life come back." ”

"It's my lord, I'll go down first to arrange for the training of these soldiers."

A set of practical methods has been formed for the training of soldiers in the ban, which is strict but not harsh, light punishment and heavy reward, and ordinary soldiers can be completely integrated into the collective after about half a month of training.

As soon as Yu Ban left, Lu Bu called Yangyi over, Yangyi, Gongsun Du's military teacher, has real skills, if Gongsun Du can obey Yangyi's arrangement, even if he fails, he can hold on for a few more days.

Yang Yi came in, generous, and unrestrained, and sat on the chair next to him.

Speaking of which, there is quite a relationship, Gongsun Du's appointment as the Taishou of Liaodong was recommended by Xu Rong and appointed by Dong Zhuo.

Yangyi accompanied Gongsun Du to take office, swept away the local powerful forces, and regulated Liaodong.

Lu Bu arranged for someone to watch the tea.

"Wen Hou, you look for me."

"Well, Yangyi, I've been busy lately, and I haven't bothered to talk to you. In recent days, the counties of Liaodong County have been regained one after another, and they will soon return to peace. ”

Yang Yi was shocked, and the results of Gongsun Du's careful management for five years returned to Lu Bu in a blink of an eye, but the trend of the times is irreversible.

"Please also ask Wen Hou to restrain the army and not hurt the people."

Dian Wei, who was drinking tea next to him, said coldly: "Mr. Yang, please rest assured, the lord loves the people like a son, and whether it is a refugee or a homeless person, he will be well resettled." The Qingzhou army fought very strongly, but it would never kill people indiscriminately. ”

Lu Bu took a branch and pointed to the huge sheepskin map: "Gongsun Zan is fighting with Yuan Shao in Youzhou, and defeat is only a matter of time. Yuan Shao is also unable to go north after taking Youzhou, and Liaodong County will be a good time for development in the next few years, what do you think. ”

"Liaodong County is seven or eight hundred miles from north to south, and thousands of miles from east to west. The registered population is only 180,000, and the unregistered population in the mountainous areas will not exceed 200,000. The territory is vast, the land is fertile, the products are abundant, there are endless fish in the river, and there are countless pheasants and hares in the field, so the local people fish and hunt, graze and collect medicine. There are very few people who really rely on growing grain, and if Wenhou wants to develop Liaodong County, I suggest that the existing industry of Liaodong County be maintained, as long as it is properly managed, it will soon become Wenhou's war horse production area. ”

Lu Bu has an overview of the horse survey in Liaodong County, and Gongsun Du has not been idle during his reign in Liaodong, and has been vigorously developing horses.

There are six government-run horse farms, with a total of about 30,000 horses, an annual output of about 15,000 horses, and more than 10,000 horses who have been trained to be war horses. There were about 200,000 horses in the homes of large families and common people.

However, most of these horses are steppe ponies, and the herdsmen milk cows, kill meat and eat, and use war horses a little reluctantly.

But these horses were transported to Qingzhou and Xuzhou, where they could pull carts, plough land, produce mules, and so on.
