Liu Yin put away his gun and dismounted, came to Gao Ding and stretched out his hand to check that there was no breath under his nose. He nodded slowly and went up the small slope.
"It is an act of debasement to frighten the Lord." Liu Yin clasped his fists and said.
Yang Qing laughed loudly and said: "How can there be anything wrong with annihilating the Yi cavalry and beheading the Yi king?"
Liu Yinqian said: "The foolish man fell into Gao Ding's trick and almost missed the important event of the prince. If the prince hadn't arrived in time, Gao Ding would have almost escaped. So how can the humble man dare to take credit?"
"Haha, I was also fooled by Gao Ding. I can't blame you for this." Yang Qing said with a smile: "What's more, if you hadn't left people behind, Gao Ding would have really escaped."
"Come, come, come with me, gentlemen, to see this King of Yi."
Although Yang Qing had seen Gao Ding in front of the battle a few days ago, he was still far away at that time, so he could not fully see his face.
At this moment, when I took a closer look, I saw that the King of Yi had thick eyebrows, big eyes, a lion's nose and a wide mouth. He was quite handsome. It's just that they are all dead now, and there is still a look of dissatisfaction on their faces.
"Oh, he can be considered a hero, he should be buried alive." Yang Qing was filled with emotion when he thought that the King of Yi, who had been in Nanzhong for more than ten years and disturbed the peace in Nanzhong, died in his own hands.
After the sergeants carried Gao Ding's body away, Yang Qing said again: "Bo Qi is relieved and ordered the troops to quickly deal with the remaining enemies."
"No." The two of them bowed and responded.
Under attack from two sides by thousands of Han and Qiang troops, the Yi soldiers had no fighting spirit and no way to escape. They were left passively beaten. In addition, Gao Ding and other generals were dead, and the remaining barbarian soldiers were unable to fight back. They either died or surrendered. Only two to three hundred people were lucky enough to escape the pursuit of the army and escaped over the mountains and ridges.
There was a slight white light in the sky. The soldiers who had been fighting fiercely for most of the night were still sleeping soundly, but Yang Qing was already awake. Without disturbing anyone, he stood up and left the tent, moved a few times, walked to a high platform, and looked at the green and picturesque scenery in the distance.
With such a great victory, he was extremely excited. The Yi king who caused trouble in Yuexi died in Gaoding, and the more than 20,000 elite soldiers that the old man could fight were almost wiped out. Now the rebels in Beishui, Qiongdu and other places were defeated. With so many troops left, the old, weak, sick and disabled, it can be said that the defeat of Soyi has been decided, and the recovery of the entire Yuexi County is just around the corner.
The current situation in Nanzhong is very different from the original history. Gaoding was supposed to die at the hands of the West Route Army led by Prime Minister Zhuge himself next year, but this year was still the second year of Jianxing, and he was already killed.
After the news of Gaoding's defeat and death came out, it must have shocked the two rebel leaders Yong Kai and Zhu Bao. I wonder what strategies they will adopt to deal with it? Once the entire Yuexi County is recaptured, what should I do next?
These general strategies must be communicated to Prime Minister Zhuge for consultation before they can be determined. Hey, I wonder what the Prime Minister will do when he knows the outcome of the battle?
Yang Qing was secretly proud of himself when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Yang Xi who was coming.
"Wen Ran, you got up so early too?"
Yang Xi smiled and replied: "Our army has achieved such a great victory. Xi was so excited that he hardly fell asleep. It's better to get up earlier. I also heard from the sergeant on duty that Mr. Fu is here, so he came here specifically to find the father."
"Well, Wen Ran thinks what should I do next after this war?" Yang Qing nodded, suddenly thinking about taking the exam.
Yang Xi thought for a while and said: "Gao Ding is dead. After two wars, his more than 20,000 soldiers were wiped out. Therefore, the remaining barbarian soldiers are no longer a concern. The whole county of Yuexi can be recovered. But our army has been fighting for days. We are exhausted and have to rest for a while before we can send out troops again."
"Just to avoid delaying for too long and missing important events, the emperor can order a group of officers and soldiers to attack first to put pressure on the Yi soldiers left behind in Qiongdu, lest they still have illusions."
"As for Yong Kai, Zhu Bao and other rebels, they will definitely be horrified when they hear about the defeat of Gaoding. The two thieves will be restrained in their actions. However, the two thieves are powerful after all. I am afraid that I will not be able to catch up with my strength alone. We still have to wait for the imperial army to pacify Nanzhong."
Yang Qing couldn't help but nodded and laughed: "Haha, Wen Ran's words are very suitable for me, but the specific regulations have to be discussed after returning to the city. This time we send troops, Wen Ran plans the military plan and arranges food and grass. It can be said that he has made outstanding achievements, and I will definitely ask you and others to take credit from the imperial court after I return."
"This is all the responsibility of the opera, how dare you take credit? The Lord is so complimentary." Yang Xi quickly bowed and said humbly.
"Rewards for meritorious deeds are the regulations that the country should have. Only in this way can we gather people's hearts and you don't have to be too modest."
At this time, noise gradually came from the bottom of the ridge. It turned out that most of the sergeants had already gotten up. Yang Qing saw this and said: "It's almost time. Wen Ran ordered the troops to eat quickly and then quickly clean up the battlefield. An hour later, the army set off to return to Anshan. .”
"promise."
After more than 20 days and dozens of battles, Yang Qing led thousands of Han and Qiang coalition forces to eliminate the Gaoding rebels. Today, he finally returned to Anshang City in victory.
"Long live the big man!"
"The officers and soldiers are victorious!"
"The Lord is mighty!"
...
Outside the South City Gate, Wang Yi, Lu Shen, Dong Xuan and other civil and military officials who stayed behind received the news and came to greet the army early in the morning. The people also spontaneously went out of the city to welcome the victorious army. At this moment, seeing the army returning, the scene suddenly became tense. Thunderous cheers erupted.
"Welcome to the Lord to lead my royal division in triumph!" Wang Yi took the lead and bowed.
Yang Qing dismounted his horse and raised his hands and said: "You gentlemen, please forgive me. How lazy you are these days to stick to the city and transport food and grass."
Wang Yiqian said: "How can we, sitting in the rear, compare with the soldiers in the front who are killing the enemy?"
He paused and then said: "The prince of the government made plans, promoted the army, eliminated the evil and rebellious people, stabilized the counties, defeated the many with the few, and killed the barbarian chiefs. He is truly a wise minister of the country."
"Haha, the prince is over-praised. This is all the result of the bloody battles of the kings and soldiers. I just did some practical work." Yang Qing said with a smile: "The soldiers have been fighting for days and are tired. I'll talk about it later when we return to the city. .”
All the officials cupped their hands and responded: "I will obey the order of the emperor."
After the army entered the city, the people lined the streets to welcome them even more enthusiastically. The soldiers and civilians cheered in unison, which shook the world. Some people even took out food and wine to reward the soldiers, which made the soldiers feel even more proud.
Even the hundreds of Qiang soldiers led by Gu Lichi into the city were treated normally. It was the first time for them to be treated with such courtesy by the Han people. At this moment, their loyalty to the government and their love for Yang Qing were unconsciously mixed in their hearts. A little heavier.
The soldiers and civilians in the city were busy for more than an hour before they dispersed. The officials returned to the county temple, and the soldiers also returned to the military camp first. There should be a grand celebration banquet tonight.
But before the banquet, Yang Qing and others had to carefully calculate the results of the war and the contributions of all the soldiers.
After taking a short rest, all the main officials from the county and county gathered in the lobby. After nodding, Yang Qing coughed slightly, stood up and bowed: "This great achievement today is all due to the great efforts of all the kings. I would like to thank you here."
Everyone quickly stood up and bowed back: "This is all the master's plan. We, the subordinates, should try our best."
Yang Qing stood up, stretched out his hand, returned to his seat and said with a smile: "Haha, as long as the civil and military officials in Yuesi County work together, they will be able to suppress the rebellion, regain the entire county, benefit the people, and make contributions to the court."
"Master Fu is absolutely right."
"Master Fu is right."
"Fu Jun said it well."
...
After talking about the scene, Yang Qing got down to the topic: "Wen Ran, please inform everyone of the results of this battle."
