Seeing that the soldiers in front of him were covered in blood, the blood stains on the armor had not yet dried, and the armor on his body was full of knife marks, it looked like he had just experienced a big battle.

Lin Xiuming chuckled in his heart, could it be that Beijun was really fighting with the barbarians before they entered the city?

Lin Xiuming didn't think much about it, he then jumped up and jumped directly onto the city wall of Beijun.

As a result, as soon as Lin Xiuming jumped on the city wall, he saw the barbarian corpses all over the ground in the distance outside the city wall, and there were countless large pits for a while.

The deaths of some of the barbarian soldiers and horses were particularly horrific, almost separated limbs, the ground was covered with organs, and the land outside the city was stained red with blood.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xiuming's whole person was stunned.

He even forgot to walk in front of Lu Chen and salute.

From this, it can be seen that there was indeed a great battle before the imperial army entered the city.

And judging from the fact that the barbarians have dropped so many corpses, the barbarians should have been repelled by the defenders of the northern county.

Lin Xiuming was extremely surprised, he wanted to know how the barbarian soldiers could die so much, and it seemed that those barbarian soldiers had died before they even approached the walls of Yancheng.

Especially those big pits on the flat ground, Lin Xiuming felt very puzzled, what are those pits for?

Of course, the surprise was shocked, but Lin Xiuming still didn't think that the soldiers of Beijun who they had heard before were true about killing 200,000 barbarian soldiers and capturing 100,000 barbarian troops.

Lin Xiuming took a deep breath to calm himself down quickly, and then looked up into the distance.

At this time, a young man in golden armor was standing at the head of the wall, looking into the distance, Lin Xiuming had seen Lu Chen, so he recognized Lu Chen at a glance.

However, I don't know why, Lin Xiuming always felt that the aura on Lu Chen's body seemed to give people a very unusual feeling, and his whole temperament had changed greatly.

When Lu Chen married the princess, he also went to Lu Chen's wedding banquet, and Lu Chen did not have such a temperament at that time.

Lin Xiuming quickly walked towards Lu Chen, and when he approached Lu Chen, Lin Xiuming suddenly understood why he felt that Lu Chen was different.

It turned out that Lu Chen's body exuded the aura of a martial artist, and he had a very heavy murderous aura on his body, and ordinary martial artists had to kill a lot to have such a strong murderous aura.

The King of the North is actually a warrior?

How is this possible?

Lin Xiuming felt even more confused, the Northern King he saw in the capital was completely a waste, a person who didn't have any strength and was not good at martial arts, how could he be a martial artist?

The key is that Lin Xiuming feels that Lu Chen's strength is not weak, at least he has reached the realm of a half-step grandmaster, and even Lin Xiuming, the grandmaster, feels some pressure in front of Lu Chen.

Lin Xiuming immediately saluted and said: "See the prince, my subordinates failed to come to Beijun as soon as possible, please punish the prince." ”

Lu Chen didn't turn his head, his eyes kept staring at the north, at this time, he said lightly: "Punishment? No, no, General Lin, you came at a good time. ”

Last night's battle killed 200,000 barbarian soldiers, and now the entire Wanning River Valley is full of corpses of barbarian soldiers and horses, although Lu Chen also thought about letting those captured barbarian soldiers carry the corpses and clean up the battlefield.

But those barbarian soldiers were only captured after all. Lu Chen was worried that they would have other thoughts.

So this didn't let them clean the battlefield, but the battlefield needs to be cleaned, so many barbarian soldiers and horse corpses, if they are left in the Wanning River Valley all the time, there is likely to be a plague.

What's more, there is also a Wanning River in the Wanning River Valley, and there are so many corpses on the riverside, polluting the entire river, where will they go to get water from Yancheng at that time.

These corpses must be disposed of, since they can't be dealt with by the barbarian soldiers, Lu Chen still wants to let the soldiers of Beijun or mobilize the common people to deal with them, he just asked people to go back to the city to announce the results of the battle, just to mobilize the common people.

But now that the 70,000 army of the imperial court is here, there is no need for ordinary people, just let these 70,000 troops clean up the battlefield.

It's all here, and if you don't do anything, you just go back.

At this time, Lu Chen continued to say to Lin Xiuming: "General Lin, the matter of cleaning up the battlefield will be handed over to you. ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiuming was stunned for a moment.

Cleaning up the battlefield?

Have the barbarians all retreated?

Lin Xiuming immediately asked, "Lord Wang, could it be that the barbarian army has already retreated?" ”

Hearing this question, Lu Chen just said lightly: "When you go out of the city to clean up the battlefield, you will understand." ”

After Lu Chen heard that the imperial army was coming to Yancheng, he only brought a few people and came back, and now the soldiers of Beijun are still cleaning up the battlefield outside Yancheng, and Lin Xiuming will be able to know what the situation is outside when they go out later.

Now that I am talking to Lin Xiuming about the result of this war, I am afraid that Lin Xiuming will not believe it, so let them let the imperial army go out and take a look in person.

Lu Chen had already asked the artillery battalion to retreat the howitzers just now, and now even if Lin Xiuming and them go out, they will not see howitzers.

As for the hoplites.

Let Lin Xiuming see that there is nothing for them to see, after all, Beijun has achieved such a big result, there must be a reasonable explanation, otherwise it will make people even more suspicious.

A good explanation for this is the hoplites.

When Lin Xiuming and the others saw the tens of thousands of hoplites in Beijun, they would most likely think that the reason why Beijun won was because of these hoplites.

In this way, it will be easier to hide the howitzer, and as for whether the heavy cavalry will cause the fear of the imperial court, it is an inevitable thing.

However, Lu Chen also knew that now the imperial court and his father did not have the heart to deal with himself, the vassal king of the northern county, and the focus of Emperor Xia was still on purging the court and cleaning up the family.

Until the family is eliminated, it is unlikely that he will do anything to the vassal king.

What's more, the imperial court has just issued an order to expand the army to itself, as a vassal king who can recruit up to 150,000 soldiers, it is no problem to raise a cavalry, right? The expansion order did not say that cavalry units were not allowed to be formed.

At this time, Li Feng came to the city tower.

Seeing that the general who came was Lin Xiuming, Li Feng was stunned for a moment, he thought to himself that it was fortunate that General Mu also came back just now, otherwise it would be troublesome if Lin Xiuming and them found out later.

Li Feng saluted to Lu Chen and said, "See the prince!" ”

Lu Chen turned his head to look at Li Feng and said, "General Li, next, I will trouble you to lead General Lin and them to clean up the battlefield." ”

"This king is a little sleepy, so he will go back first."

Li Feng immediately said: "Yes, Lord Wang!" ”

Then Lu Chen turned around and left directly.

Looking at the back of Lu Chen's departure, Lin Xiuming was stunned, and then he looked at Li Feng on the side and said, "General Li, has the barbarian army retreated?" ”

Lin Xiuming still had some impressions of Li Feng, after all, Li Feng was also Mu Changtian's right-hand man in the Tiger Ben Army before.

Hearing Lin Xiuming's question, Li Feng said with a smile: "General Lin, the barbarians are not just defeated by us, waiting to get out of the city for a while, you will know how much success our soldiers in Beijun have achieved under the leadership of the prince." ”

Seeing that Li Feng was also selling Guanzi, Lin Xiuming frowned slightly.

Not only did he doubt that could it be that Beijun had really achieved great results this time?

Could it be that they were lucky enough to kill an important figure in the Barbarian Court?
