Chapter 123 The fruits of victory are so abundant
In the wilderness south of Hutou Castle, Liu Jun led the Cavalry Division, the personal cavalry team and the Yebu Cavalry Team were galloping. The riders were shuttled back and forth, and occasionally some bandits who were trying to escape were chased and chopped down from time to time.
Liu Jun was extremely excited, he did it.
More than 100 team members rode around the rear of the bandits and formed a formation to block the bandits. Except for a few bandits who rode on horseback and escaped first, the rest of the bandits were kept by Liu Jun. Now, the battle has ended, and more than 3,000 invading bandits have escaped less than one-tenth of them.
The bandits collapsed completely, and they could not advance or retreat, and they surrendered one after another.
This is a perfect victory.
"Go to the thief camp"
Seeing that the whole situation had basically been controlled, Liu Jun led his cavalry to the south. He was not going to chase the fleeing horse thieves, but to take the thieves in the camp ten miles south of the city. Thousands of people came from afar, and they must have carried a lot of supplies. The thieves fled in a hurry, so the supplies in the camp would definitely not be able to take away.
Liu Jun was very satisfied with this battle. The team members of the Six Hundred and Nine-Headed Birds defeated more than 3,000 bandits alone, not ordinary bandits, but the men of the big bandits Lao Huihui. In particular, they not only defeated more than 3,000 bandits, but also achieved great victory, killing more than a thousand thieves and captives.
When the horse team arrived at the thief camp, it was empty and there was no thief, but the camp was still there, and there were even a lot of feather arrows, swords, guns, ammunition, flags, etc. The personal soldiers of Ma Shoucheng who escaped from the city did not enter the camp at all and ran away directly. The few remaining bandits and bandits ran away when they saw this. No one even remembered to set a torch to burn here.
The entire camp was left intact with the Nine-Headed Bird.
"Call the young and strong men from the fort to come over, demolish the camp, and transport all the things back to the camp." Liu Jun looked it over and issued an order, and then led the team members back to the Hutou Castle.
He had no interest in continuing to pursue the escaped thieves.
On the way back to the fort, there were corpses of bandits, especially the thief positions in front of the South Gate, and several large pits, all of which were artillery positions that the bandits destroyed themselves yesterday.
"Call Zhao Shun over." Liu Jun did not rush into the city. He stopped in front of the big pits and looked at the cannons scattered everywhere. Some of them exploded last night, and some were flying when the gunpowder truck exploded and hit them. However, Liu Jun estimated that there must be some of these cannons that could be useful.
Zhao Shun was quickly summoned, "Check all the cannons of the thief, transport them back to use them, take them back to repair if they are broken, and take them back to repair them if they are completely destroyed, and take them back to refine materials."
Zhao Shun looked around excitedly and said excitedly, "It's all good things, probably a lot of them are good." After all, artillery is rough. Except for directly blowing the chamber, it wouldn't be so easy to break even if it hits a few times. However, those cannons that destroy the enemy were basically damaged.
After a brief look, Zhao Shun knew that he had guessed correctly, "Sir, there is no problem with at least twenty cannons that have been destroyed, and it can be used. There are a few other cannons that can be repaired, but the cannon carts are destroyed, so they have to be remade. Most of the tiger squat cannons are good, but some need to be rebuilt some iron claws and iron trips. Well, the accessories such as hammers, scissors, cones, medicinal wire boxes, wooden hammers, etc. for some cannons are mostly damaged, and they have to be reused."
"There are twenty cannons that can be used?" Liu Jun asked in surprise. He thought it would be good to find a few cannons that are useful, but he didn't expect there were so many available.
"Sir, there are now twenty cannons that destroy the enemy are basically intact. In addition, I am sure that at least five or six cannons cannons cannons cannons cannons cannons. As for the tiger squat cannons, after repair, there will be at least more than thirty cannons available." Zhao Shun replied seriously.
Liu Jun patted Zhao Shun's arm excitedly and said, "Now I will give you an important task. Next, the firearm yard will be fully launched. Repair these enemy-killing cannons and tiger squat cannons as soon as possible. In addition, buy them as much as possible. In short, I hope these cannons can be equipped with our nine-headed birds as soon as possible. Do this well, I will remember one of the great achievements for everyone in your firearm yard."
More than 20 enemy-killing cannons and more than 30 tiger-squatting cannons. Even these can only be regarded as lightweight shotguns, but for the current nine-headed birds, it is quite powerful. Liu Jun did not forget the spectacular scene when the thief placed thirty-six enemy-squatting cannons and dozens of tiger-squatting cannons under the city to fire. The thief once suppressed the nine-headed birds on the top of the city and couldn't raise their heads.
The Nine-Headed Bird does not have the ability to mass-produce artillery, so it can only be bought, and it is even difficult to buy it if you have money. It is a surprise to win so many artillery at once.
Zhao Shun stared at the cannons with a blazing eyes, turned around excitedly to greet his companions, and asked them to call Qingqiang to come and carry the cannons.
The morning breeze blew, and the battlefield was filled with the smell of gunpowder and blood.
There was no sound of shouting and killing on the battlefield, only the screams and howlings of many wounded soldiers were left, and there were also crows circling in the sky smelling blood.
Looking at the corpses all over the ground and the piles of defeated soldiers, Liu Jun couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
"We won, a complete victory," Liu Jun said slowly.
"Win." Zhang Shan and others repeated.
"Win, Wan Sheng," Feng Sheng shouted.
The players around "Wansheng" shouted and responded together. Wansheng's calls became more and more. The players and the people from all over the world also responded with cheers. The cheers gathered and rushed straight to the clouds.
The defeated soldiers tied into a string of ropes and were watching the Nine-Headed Soldiers walking towards the city looked at all this in a daze. They were losers, and the cheers were just reminding them of this fact. No one knew what the ending was about to wait for them.
The young and strong people in the Hutou Fort were mobilized to go out of the castle to help clean the battlefield. At this time, they discovered the terrible scene in the battlefield outside the city. Looking at the teams of captives tied with ropes, everyone was both excited and scared. Fortunately, the Nine-headed Bird won, otherwise, they would not know where they were at this time.
Some young and strong people even punched and kicked the prisoners, which forced Liu Jun to send people to ride horses and proclaim loudly, ordering that the prisoners should not be abused. Although Liu Jun did not like these bandits, since they became prisoners, they could not be wasted such a waste.
After orders were passed down, the victorious Tigerhead began to clean the battlefield in an orderly manner and make a post-war summary.
He rode back to the fort and walked on the streets inside the fort. Only then did Liu Jun see clearly the damage caused by the fire crow attacks of the bandits last night. Many houses were burned, and some were extinguished in time, but they also left many traces of smoke and fire.
"A total of nineteen houses were burned down, dozens of houses were injured, more than a dozen people died from fire crow attacks, and dozens of others were injured in various serious injuries."
Liu Jun nodded, fortunately, those burned were just temporary wooden houses, which were rented to the craftsmen on the construction site, and were not worth much. With the timely notification, all the people in the house ran out and not many were injured.
The nine most important walled houses in the city were not damaged. However, this also made Liu Jun a little scared. The war was really ruthless, and no one knew what kind of means the enemy would use.
Everyone returned to Yacheng, which was located in the north of the city, and basically no losses were suffered during the attack of the fire crows.
When they were dismissed and entered the official hall, everyone felt a sense of fatigue. Although they were very tired, their brains were very excited.
Zhang Shan laughed and said, "This battle is so exciting. Our Nine-Headed Birds will become famous all over the world this time. Everyone knows it. Six hundred regiments trained to wipe out more than 3,000 old thieves in one battle. I am afraid that people will not believe it if they spread it."
"Yes, my elder brother is really a god of military service. This time the court rewards merits and rewards, so why don't you give me a thousand general?" Wang Qian also smiled.
"This credit is even if you are promoted to the fourth-rank commander."
If you kill so many bandits, you will definitely be promoted. Everyone hopes that Liu Jun can be promoted this time. Liu Jun is their boss. If Liu Jun is promoted, they will naturally be promoted too.
However, Liu Jun is not as optimistic as them, and things are not that simple. Annihilation of a battalion of thieves is indeed a great achievement, but the contribution is indeed too great, so great that it can shock everyone. This matter will depend on subsequent operations in the end. If no one helps Liu Jun and the Nine-Headed Bird, I am afraid that this contribution may not be kept in the end.
"Don't be happy for the first time, do the aftermath. Cross-examine all the prisoners, and pull out the officers among them and separate them. In addition, the thieves' bodies were counted, the heads were cut down and marinated with lime, and the bodies were recorded in the warehouse. The bodies were transported outside the city to be buried. In addition, the weapons and armor scattered by the thieves were also collected and registered."
"I heard that Ma Shoucheng was dead, so he must find his body and save it well. In addition, the flags and seals of the bandits seized must also be searched and preserved."
These things are important evidence for them to annihilate the first battalion of thieves. Without these, many things will be difficult to explain.
"There are several important things that need to be done immediately, and the casualties of each department are counted and timely treatment is provided. In addition, various seizures must be counted in a timely manner. In addition, we must immediately start recording the achievements and performance of the soldiers in this battle, and record and verify the work."
"There is another thing, let all levels immediately carry out post-war summary discussions, summarize combat experience, find out the shortcomings in combat, and other places."
After making many requests in a row, Liu Jun did not forget to give everyone a good news at this time of victory.
"Now, I will send a message to the entire team immediately, and all team members will receive a special bonus once, and each person will receive a 500-point credit card."
Zhang Shan asked Liu Jun, "We have been fighting here for two days and two nights, and no soldiers have come to help. Damn, should we send someone to inform us of the good news now?"
Everyone has some opinions on this. After fighting for so long, no officer or soldier has seen him. Although Hutou Fort is seventy miles away from Macheng County, it is enough to arrive one day, but now two days are about to pass and no one has come. Fortunately, everyone won, otherwise they would have to wait for their reinforcements, which would be a waste.
"They are coming in time, where can we get our great victory this time?" Liu Jun said with a smile, but he was also dissatisfied with the government's slow reaction and secretly dissatisfied with the government. "Forget it, don't say anything about complaining, send someone to the county town and inform them. Remember to tell them, just say that two or three hundred bandits rode their horses to flee south, and ask them to send someone to intercept them."
