Although only a few days have passed, the battlefields outside the west and north cities of Chunhua have been cleaned.

However, the camp where the troops were originally stationed has still not been cleared.

The army camp stretched for nearly ten miles, which was intricate and messy.

It was burned by fire again, and now it is even more of a mess, and it cannot be cleaned up in ten days and half a month.

The farmland and houses outside Chunhua have long been destroyed by the war, and there is no farm work to do and few helpers.

Chunhua City can also be regarded as having some manpower available, and Wang Zhaolin, the magistrate of Chunhua, did not change his color when he saw that the army had retreated, and did the act of unloading the mill and killing the donkey.

They were still stationed in the city, and there was no shortage of food and rice, and they were still supplied on time.

Although the specifications have been lowered slightly, this is actually a helpless move, after all, there are now tens of thousands of mouths to eat outside Chunhua City.

A huge camp had been built outside the city, and its main duty was to hold prisoners.

In the battle of Chunhua, the army was tricked to lure the enemy in, and he panicked because of Gao Jie's anyway.

In the last night battle, most of the casualties appeared in the initial assault of the army, about 60 people.

Then Chen Wang led the cavalry to break through the intruding infantry outside the city of Xicheng, driving the rout all the way, and did not encounter any resistance, and the casualties were only seven.

plus more than 30 guards who were killed and wounded in the street battle in Nancheng, as well as seven or eight battalion soldiers who were shot and wounded.

The total number of casualties was only one hundred and three.

In addition to the battle in the previous days, a total of 337 people were killed and wounded.

The result of the battle was to break through 100,000 troops and capture more than 14,000 enemy troops before and after.

Captured Gao Yigong, the wife of Li Zicheng, and hundreds of generals in charge of the army.

Most of the troops who fled were escorted back by Chen Gong and Liu Chenggong in the follow-up, but a considerable part of them still fled to the mountains and forests, and they don't know where they went.

Liu Chenggong was originally a deputy general, and he joined forces with Ai Wannian to march to Qingyang, but was ambushed by Li Zicheng and others.

Ai Wannian and others died in battle, and he and Wang Ximing led the remnants of the soldiers to fight to the death to break out of the encirclement.

The dead Ai Wannian and others were given a compassionate system, but Liu Chenggong was punished for his crime and was almost imprisoned for questioning.

As long as there are military merits, the promotion of military attachés can be like a roc and rise to the sky.

But the price is that once you are defeated, you will never recover.

Even if you are lucky enough to be able to survive the defeat.

However, after that, there will inevitably be the danger of being removed from office, and even being sentenced to prison for the crime.

Liu Chenggong actually wanted to be imprisoned and held accountable at the beginning, but because of the critical situation of the war, there was someone to help.

Therefore, Liu Chenggong was finally demoted to a general, and the more than 1,000 remnants of the army under the command of Tian Yinglong were reorganized into a battalion.

Liu Chenggong's position is now very embarrassing, although his identity is a general, but there are only 1,000 people in the battalion.

And the military order given to him by Hong Chengchou was also to assist in the garrison of Chunhua, while the order to Chen Wang was to preside over the defense of Chunhua.

To be honest, Chen Wangzhen didn't know what kind of attitude to take to meet Liu Chenggong.

Although Chen Wang is now the head of the Liao Barracks, after all, he is only a thousand generals, and his official body is only a thousand households.

And Liu Chenggong was the deputy general of a town before, and he led the commander of the three products with the rank of Tongzhi, and his status was much higher than him.

However, these Chen Wang have been thinking about problems, and when he met Liu Chenggong, he found that he was too worried.

Chen Wang greeted him at the east gate of Chunhua early, and the first thing he waited for was a big car.

Liu Chenggong's injuries have not healed, and he has been riding all the way.

The guard lifted the curtain, and Chen Wang saw Liu Chenggong, who was pale and his breath was quite weak.

Chen Gong, who was standing beside Chen Wang, took a step forward and reported Liu Chenggong's situation in a low voice.

Now that Hong Chengchou has no one to use, he has transferred Liu Chenggong, who has just recovered from serious injuries, back.

In the encounter between Liu Chenggong and Li Zicheng, his old wounds were broken, so he is now the appearance of losing his blood and blood.

Liu Chenggong is a veteran, almost the same age as Ai Wannian and Cao Wenzhao.

At this time, Liu Chenggong was sitting in the carriage, his forehead was covered with fine sweat, and he looked very poor.

Seeing Liu Chenggong's situation, Chen Wang quickened his pace a little.

"In Xia Chen Wang, I have long admired the reputation of Tongzhi, and some time ago I fought with Li Zicheng outside Chunhua City."

"Li Zicheng led the elite cavalry to escape, and the troops under my command were scarce and difficult to take care of, and I couldn't pass on the message, which put Tongzhi in danger, and I hope to forgive my sins."

Chen Wang bowed his head slightly and arched his hand.

He thought about these words for a long time before he spoke.

Even the title has been considered for a long time.

Liu Chenggong was originally a deputy general, but now he is a demoted general.

If you call the general directly, it feels like you are directly revealing the scar, and it is better to call the official position.

"Chunhua's great victory strengthens the momentum of our army, and there is no fault ......"

Liu Chenggong shook his head slightly, his expression slightly gloomy.

"It's a pity that we couldn't keep the absconding Li thief and let him escape into Guanzhong."

Liu Chenggong's last few words were almost gritted teeth.

"I have already sent someone to send the news back, and the Li thief will not be able to run for long."

After the defeat of Xiangle, almost all the divisions under his command were lost, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he had a deep blood feud with Li Zicheng.

Nothing Chen Wang was worried about happened, and Liu Chenggong didn't have any idea of fighting for power with him.

After that, he handed over the military order issued by Hong Chengchou, indicating his assistance.

He was even asked for advice on where the troops should be stationed, apparently putting them in a position of assistance.

The arrogance in Liu Chenggong's heart has long been completely lost in Xiangle, and the only thing that supports him to continue to lead the troops is the hatred in his heart.

Chen Wang's background Liu Chenggong is also very clear, Chen Wang, Cao Wenzhao's cronies.

Although he is only a thousand presidents now, with the support of Cao Wenzhao, he can achieve the position of guerrilla no matter how bad he is.

This big victory, I'm afraid it will improve the progress a lot.

In the first battle, more than 100,000 troops were defeated, and only more than 2,000 battalions were relied on to achieve such a great victory.

Such a record is enough to go down in history, and it is enough to help him ascend to the post of battalion general.

In terms of rewarding meritorious deeds, even if you do not confer a general, you must at least give a guerrilla.

It is undoubtedly stupid to compete for power and profit with such an obviously promising person.

Liu Chenggong didn't stay long, and after seeing the salute, he said a few innocuous words, and then led his soldiers and horses to the predetermined station.

Chen Wang stared at the car that was carrying Liu Chenggong away, and his heart slowly cooled down.

Such is the sorrow of being a military general.

As a military general, no matter how many feats you accumulate, no matter how many victories you accumulate.

As long as there is a great defeat, all the merits, all the fruits of victory, will be reduced to nothing, and they will become vain.
