The first siege was still very successful. The performance of the wooden battalion is very good, and the new recruits basically did not escape from the battle under the orders of the veterans, but some recruits were still nervous at the beginning, and some even peed their pants because of this.

However, when it came time to really fight, these recruits performed well.

In the end, the Muzi battalion succeeded in taking Songpa Castle at the cost of less than a thousand people. After this battle, the Muzi battalion killed a total of more than 4,000 enemy troops, and the remaining more than 15,000 people eventually became prisoners of the Ma family's army.

Therefore, although there are nearly 1,000 battle losses, the final battle loss ratio is actually very good.

When Ma Shuo entered Songpa City with a group of guards, the Suzaku Battalion and the White Tiger Battalion of the cavalry had already taken the first step and went straight to the military fortress where 10,000 barbarians gathered. When the two battalions of cavalry set off, it was when the overall situation on the side of the wooden battalion had been decided.

In this case, there is no point in everyone gathering here. So, Ma Shuo asked the two battalions of the cavalry to take the lead, and it would be best if they could successfully take the military fortress. If not, then besiege the other party first, and wait for the fire battalion to carry out the siege.

The Fire Battalion also did not enter Songpa City, and they were arranged by Ma Shuo to set off behind the two battalions of cavalry, aiming at the same military fortress. Therefore, the last to enter the city were only the Muzi Battalion and the Righteous Army Battalion, as well as Ma Shuo's personal guard battalion, the Qinglong Battalion.

After Ma Shuo entered the city, he went straight to the official office of Songpa City. This place, which was originally the office of the administrator of Songpa Castle, was later occupied by the barbarians and became the residence of the barbarian chieftain.

Now, naturally, this place has become a temporary place for Ma Shuo to stay.

The aftermath of the city's work, Ma Shuo handed over to the righteous army camp. Because many people in the camp had gone out of Songpa City in the first place, they were more familiar with the situation here, and it was most appropriate for them to come forward to deal with the aftermath.

In this process, it is not only necessary to appease the emotions of those aborigines, but also to find out and clean up some traitors who have renegade and traitors who have taken advantage of the fire to rob. Naturally, there are a lot of things.

However, with the arrival of the rebel battalion, these things are much more efficient to handle. The current temporary commander of the rebel battalion is called Shi Chun, who is a native of Songpa and a commander of the city guard army in Songpa City. When the barbarians occupied Songpa, he led his men to fight against the barbarians, and when the disparity between the enemy and us was too great, Shi Chun could only lead the remaining brothers of less than 300 people to withdraw from Songpo and hide in the deep mountains and old forests to fight guerrilla attacks with the barbarians.

Later, he successively gathered a group of exiled border people, and gradually pulled up a team of more than 3,000 people. This time, when Ma Shuo's men entered Qilian, he was the first to express to Ma Shuo his intention to join the Ma family's army.

Along the way, Ma Shuo discovered that this Shi Chun was indeed a talent, and later made him the substitute general and captain of the newly formed Volunteer Army Battalion. I believe that as long as the pacification of Songpa City is handled well this time, the code in front of Shi Chun, the chief general and captain, can be removed.

In order to restore order to Songpa as soon as possible, Shi Chun personally grasped this matter, personally selected a group of people from Songpa from the volunteer army camp, and formed several work teams, which were led or led by these people, and went deep into various places in Songpa City to gain an in-depth understanding of various situations.

In three days, Shi Chun only took three days to sort out the not very large Songpa City.

After the war, the situation in Songpa City was not optimistic. Originally, there were nearly 50,000 aborigines in Songpa City, and now there are less than 10,000 aborigines left alive, and they are mainly old, weak, sick and disabled, and there are basically no real adult men.

Qin traitors dug up almost a hundred people, all of whom were the big clans in Songpa City or some scum such as ruffians and green skins. For these people, Shi Chun was not polite at all, and directly pulled them out and slashed them.

In addition, the traitors who took advantage of the fire to rob were also caught, and the fate of these people was the same, and they directly cut off their heads and finished the work.

When Shi Chun arranged for people to sort out Songpa City, Ma Shuo, who lived in the official office, was not idle. He first led people to find the prison of the official office, and rescued some of the original officials of Songpa Castle who were imprisoned in the official office.

These officials resolutely didn't want the barbarians to bow their heads and didn't want to be Qin traitors. These people are actually relatively lucky, and the barbarians actually cut them down in a fit of anger.

Xu Liang, the civil affairs officer of Songpa City, Sun Xingyi, the chief bookkeeper of the Money and Grain Division, and Zhang Tiexiong, the chief bookkeeper of the Anti-Theft Department, these three were the original three main officials in the Songpo City official office, and they were all locked up in the prison of the official office.

Ma Shuo released these people and learned their identities, naturally he was overjoyed. I am now lacking such a civil administrator, which is exactly what someone has just dozed off and someone has sent a pillow.

After some conversation, Ma Shuo directly reinstated the three officials and asked them to start working immediately. At the same time, in order to allow them to carry out their work smoothly, Ma Shuo informed Shi Chun to transfer a group of people from his volunteer camp to Xu Liang and others to assist them in their recovery work. In addition, Ma Shuo also asked Shi Chun to select 3,000 people from the rebel camp to form a new city guard army in Songpa City.

In this way, with the joint efforts of Shi Chunyi's military camp and civil affairs officer Xu Liang, the small town of Songpa soon returned to normal order. Naturally, after arranging the relevant matters, Ma Shuo, who had taken a short rest, also took the rest of the people from the personal guard battalion, the Muzi battalion and the righteous army battalion to continue towards Qilian County.

Ma Shuo did not chase the cavalry battalion and the Huozi battalion, but killed the Qilian county from another route. At this time, there are not many people and horses left in Qilian County, and they can actually give it a try by relying on the pro-guard battalion, the wooden character battalion, and the righteous army battalion.

There are about 40,000 barbarians in Qilian County, and at this time, Ma Shuo's hands are also about 40,000. As long as you don't go to siege the city, relying on these 40,000 people can still make a difference. Moreover, according to the time calculation, the two cavalry battalions and the infantry fire battalion that went to the military village should almost solve the problem, and when the time comes, they will rush from the military village to Qilian County, then Ma Shuo will not have to worry about manpower.

Just when Ma Shuo was talking about the military village, the two main generals of the Vermilion Bird Battalion and the White Tiger Battalion sent a report together. Ma Shuo opened the co-written report and read it carefully.

The content in the report is mainly one joy and one worry!

Happily, they have successfully taken the military village, and it is a complete victory without spending a single soldier.

However, the worry is that they will not be able to leave the military village in a short period of time.
