When everyone was silent, Dongfang Bai gently asked Yan Feng and said, "The rebel casualties, can the number be reported?"

"It's over. Yan Feng replied, "The rebels have nearly 30,000 dead, nearly 5,000 wounded, 15,400 prisoners and 1 www.biquge.info 5,400 soldiers, and the rest are estimated to have fled, probably more than 5,000 people. ”

Xiao Yu said slowly: "Although these barbarian people don't have much formal training, they are naturally strong and aggressive. Most of the results we achieved were due to the night attack, which caught them off guard. And after the capture of Mu Bo, the entire southwest war situation will be greatly variable because of the destruction of the rebels along the way......"

Yan Feng shook his spirits and said in a loud voice: "Just listen to the military voice, a team as strong as our wolf army will definitely kill those rebel bandits without leaving a single piece of armor!"

Wolf Junxing finally spoke, and said lightly: "You have this confidence?"

Yan Feng immediately nodded.

Wolf Junxing smiled softly and walked outside the tent.

The sun was blazing, but the camp was snoring.

The wolf army star glanced in all directions and said in a deep voice: "The second brother once said that although there is a chance to win, the rebels are difficult to fight...... I still have a little bit of luck - now that I have experienced it firsthand, I have finally felt more deeply......"

He turned around and gave an order to the guards on the side: "Inform the lords of the various departments to come and assemble in the military tent!"

It didn't take long for the congregation to gather.

The Wolf Army Star, which returned to its calm and composure, began to give orders one by one.

"Luo Hao. Wolf Junxing pointed to the map and said, "You take a team of cavalry and rush to the Jade Mat City as fast as possible." If the rebels enter the city, surround the city and wait for the main force to arrive. ”

Luo Hao stepped forward to receive the order, and at the same time asked, "My lord, what if the enemy does not enter the city?"

Wolf Junxing's eyes were firm, and he said in a calm voice: "Then wait in the Jade Mat City, and wait until our army meets in the past, and withdraw and return to the north together." ”

"What, withdraw the troops?" The rest of the generals were shocked when they heard this, and couldn't help but be a little in an uproar.

"I know what you're trying to say. ”

The wolf army star waved his hand to stop the noise.

He glanced left and right, and found that Xiao Yu and Dongfang Bai were as calm as before, and there was no difference, obviously they were all in favor of his decision.

Seeing this, the wolf army's heart was relieved, and he said gently, "Yes, we can continue the pursuit-without the Mubo rebels, Ding'an County will be a smooth road." A large area of lost land can be easily calmed down, and a lot of war exploits are also to be collected. ”

The generals watched him quietly and did not overdo it.

Wolf Junxing sighed lightly and continued: "Let's not talk about the battle of Putian Mountain, we suffered a lot of casualties, we are exhausted, and we need to rest;

"In addition, Ding'an County is vast and sparsely populated, and there is no need for my army to fight at all, and the ordinary army is enough to recover the lost territory. The wolf army star paused, "Mu Bo once led an army of 50,000 to operate outside the county, and he must have a lot of money in his hands, and we found this foreign wealth to reward the soldiers, which is more affordable than that hot battle exploits......"

A low laugh rang out from the tent.

Wolf Junxing looked at Zhai Wen, his eyes wandering over the new wounds on his body, and asked with concern, "Are your injuries serious?"

"It's all small injuries to the flesh and skin, and it's not in the way, Lord Xie cares. Zhai Wen grinned and said, "Speaking of which, I have just recovered, and I originally wanted to return to the first battle to serve the adults well, but I want to pass the years unfavorably, and I was injured again......

Yan Jun next to him smiled and said: "Your luck, I'm afraid you have to stay away from everyone, so as not to be contaminated and suffer disasters." ”

Zhai Wen turned his head and smiled at him as well: "Thinking back to Lord Yan, it was really seven in and seven out, and he was refreshed, and he finally didn't stumble, and then he was deep in the enemy formation......"

Yan Jun glared at him: "What are you doing with those again!"

"Alright, alright. ”

Wolf Junxing helplessly stopped them, and said with a serious face: "According to the military order, assemble in full gear, and after Luo Sima finds out the situation, go to the jade mat." ”

Luo Hao, who was the first to be the forward, took the cavalry of the wolf army, and really as the wolf army star said, quickly caught up with the fleeing barbarian rebels.

They also had generals commanding the rebels along the way, and they slowly gathered sporadic deserters on the road, and finally there were four or five thousand people.

However, there are many people and things, and the lack of food, grass and food is the biggest problem.

It's a pity that when they were tired from hunger and thirst and thinking of a way out, the pursuit of the wolf army behind them made them have to continue to run forward with their lives.

On the second day of their escape, the rebels were chased in front of Jade Mat City.

The continuous escape made the Barbarian Rebels no longer have physical support, and many wounded soldiers fell halfway, and they did not know whether they were alive or dead. Now that they are in the city, they can't go into the city to hide.

According to the military order, Luo Hao immediately surrounded the Jade Mat City.

On the third day, Yan Jun led his subordinates to rush to the outside of Yudian City.

The barbarian rebels, who had been resting and planning to wait for an opportunity to break through, saw that the wolf army had infantry troops to help, and couldn't help but think of the battle of Putian Mountain, the desperate phalanx army, and their hearts were desolate and blank.

Five days later, the wolf army all gathered outside the jade mat city.

At this time, Zhanliang's counterinsurgency army was already stationed in Zhongri County.

"What! The Northern Army has won such a great victory!"

Zhan Liang got the good news of the wolf army star, and couldn't help but laugh.

"This is the first victory of our army since it arrived in the southwest!" Zhan Liang couldn't sit still, walking back and forth in the tent, "Go and report to Your Majesty the victory......"

The officials around him were also smiling and talking.

"Lord Wolf is really brave and strategic, commanding the northern army to go south, and winning the first battle......"

"So heroic, I don't know how to compare to General Meng?"

"Before, General Meng offered advice, but unfortunately the bridge was broken, and he couldn't wait for Lord Wolf and Lord Yue in time, and the two cavalry helped. General Meng was also heroic, and finally decided to attack the rebels of the Great Wilderness alone......"

"A few days ago, it was also a good news back, although there was no such a big victory for the wolf army, but it also killed one of the bandit leaders, to which the yellow neck belonged...... No small credit!"

"Coupled with the fact that Mubo's 50,000-strong army has now been pacified, the matter of the rebels in the southwest has been half solved so far!"

“......”

Hearing everyone's words, Zhan Liang smiled heartily: "If you succeed General Meng and closely pursue the army of General Huang Khan, you will also be able to achieve success, and then the southwest rebels will be swept away, and the chaos will be settled! Speaking of which, it is all a good blessing brought by the military star after it goes south!"

Zhan Liang and everyone were happy for a moment, turned their heads, and suddenly saw the wolf who sent the good news, and his heart was happy, natural and pleasant, only to hear Zhan Liang to the wolf, and asked gently: "This, is the wolf Sima mentioned by the military star?"

The wolf covered the white step forward calmly.

Zhan Liang was in a very happy mood, personally helped him up, and greeted him earnestly.

The wolf covered the white expression neither humble nor arrogant, and said slowly: "Lord Zhonglang sent me here because of an important matter, and I need to consult the general. ”

Zhan Liang smiled and said, "Just say it." ”

The wolf's expression remained unchanged, and he said, "It is to deal with the issue of Mu Bo and the prisoners of his army." ”

Zhan Liang was stunned and a little caught off guard.

Wolf Fubai continued to say calmly: "This matter is very important, if it is not handled well, I am afraid that it will affect the overall situation of the general's southwest rebellion, so Lord Zhonglang specially sent me to inquire." After the previous battle of Putian Mountain, our army only had more than 30,000 people left, and we had to take care of the prisoners and prepare for war, and the troops were very nervous, so I asked the general to reply as soon as possible. ”

Zhan Liang pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "Junxing is very thoughtful, and this matter really cannot be delayed. ”

He asked the wolf to sit down, paced and thought about it, and walked slowly for a long time, without giving an opinion.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt the trickiness of the matter.

Really, as Wolf Junxing said, this kind of handling is probably the top priority directly related to the counterinsurgency in the southwest and long-term peace and stability in the future.

"Wolf Sima, do you have any suggestions?" Zhan Liang asked with a still kind face.

Wolf Fubai didn't seem to understand his embarrassment, he was still so polite, and said steadily: "Lord Zhonglang thinks that Mu Bo can't be killed, and all foreign captives can't be killed. ”

Zhan Liang frowned slightly, and glanced at everyone in the tent.

Everyone knew that it was troublesome, and they kept silent, and no one wanted to provoke them.

Wolf Fubai looked left and right, and continued to say tepidly: "General, Lord Zhonglang believes that although we have exterminated the rebels of the Barbarian Wood Clan, they have no practical effect on the current chaos, and we still need to make greater efforts to completely pacify the southwest. ”

There was nodding and contemplation in the tent, and there was no obvious disagreement about this.

Wolf Fubai said slowly: "First of all, the rebels have been repeatedly repelled by our army, and they must retreat. Either to the south to the barbarian region, or to the east to the Gobi. The only way to achieve the goal of annihilating the rebels is to travel long distances and keep pursuing them - however, wherever they flee, it will make the confrontation difficult, the war will be delayed, and it will be far away. ”

Seeing Zhan Liang nodding, Wolf Cover Bai paused for a moment and said, "Once the army really wants to go on an expedition, the most realistic problem is the supply of food and grass. The southwest border is vast and has complex terrain, including mountainous areas, deserts, Gobi and long rivers...... In such an environment, it is very difficult to replenish, not to mention, there are too many dangers that are easy to ambush. As long as the grain and grass are cut off, the army will inevitably go and never return. ”

Zhan Liang's face was grim, and his fingers tapped lightly on the case.

Therefore, Lord Zhonglang believes that it is best to adopt a smooth aftermath to quell the rebellion in the southwest. Not to kill and deter, but to appease the rebels, and try to avoid forcing them to leave......"

The wolf said for a long time, and then put forward the meaning of the wolf army's entrustment: "In this way, if we can't completely annihilate the rebels in the short term, it is better to use Mu Bo's prestige and influence among the rebels to appease and surrender, so as to end the local war as soon as possible." ”

Zhan Liang was silent on his face, but he agreed with it very much in his heart.

Quelling the rebellion in the southwest in a short period of time is the strategy that the DPRK and China truly recognize.

Raising his eyes to see the wolf covering white, Zhan Liang asked gently: "I don't know if you Zhonglang, Lord Zhonglang, have any other opinions on the current battle situation?"
