Near the ancient city of Ningping, the mound is surrounded by busy scenes. The soldiers and young and strong are cleaning the battlefield and recycling all recyclable resources. The bodies of the enemy's war dead have been restrained and piled up in a large pit that has just been dug for a short time to be buried.

After the war, letting a large number of corpses be exposed to the wilderness can easily cause plague. The wild beasts and even wild dogs that eat corpses will never forget the taste of human flesh and will sooner or later become a disaster. Therefore, as long as time allows, the victorious side will have to bury the corpses on the battlefield.

The person who dug the pit was a prisoner of war, and the person who transported the corpses was also a prisoner of war. The bodies of the losers were piled up in several large pits, and the victims of the victorious side would be treated better.

Ten people were lying in a row, lying in a deep rectangular pit, their hair would be cut off by their comrades, and a corner of their robes would be cut off, and then they would be packed in cloth bags, with their hometown and name written on them, and they would be taken back to Shannan by military officials and sent to the hands of the survivors.

It took a lot of effort to deal with the corpse, and it also took a lot of effort to sort out various types of spoils. Not only food, grass and supplies, not only the armor and croakers on the dead, but also the arrows everywhere must be recycled.

In a fierce battle, the two sides shot tens of thousands of feather arrows. Even if the arrow shaft and feathers were damaged, most of the arrowheads were still useful. An arrowhead was very light, but tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of arrowheads were collected and used again, which could save a lot of iron.

This is the welfare of cleaning the battlefield, and only the winner can clean the battlefield. For the winner, the greatest welfare is rows of prisoners waiting to be sent down. At this moment, the scene of a large number of prisoners gathering has become the most spectacular scene.

Last night, the strong light that miraculously appeared directly reversed the situation. The marching army of the Southeast Road would collapse and chase them for more than twenty miles and capture them indefinitely. It was a great victory. Now, how to deal with the prisoners is a problem that must be solved as soon as possible.

Since ancient times, killing prisoners is ominous. If it is unnecessary, generally speaking, the winner will not massacre prisoners of war. Most of the young and strong who can join the army or are recruited to follow the army are strong laborers. It is too wasteful to kill them, but centralized resettlement is easy to cause problems.

Therefore, the most urgent task of marching in the Southeast Road is to deal with these prisoners properly.

As long as the captured soldiers are not disabled, they are still rare soldiers. They can be supplemented with the victor's team, allowing the army to recover their combat effectiveness as soon as possible, or concentrate on guarding them as slaves, and rewarded to the meritorious soldiers in the future.

Different prisoners have different ways of handling them according to their identities: for example, if a warrior surrenders, they will be qualified soldiers competed for by the generals of each department, and those troops will depend on the situation.

Those recruited soldiers who were recruited to serve in the military are ordinary people on weekdays, with poor combat skills, but they are good laborers. Similarly, those young and strong men who work as hard laborers in the army are also good "farmers".

There are already default rules for how to deal with prisoners. Generally speaking, prisoners are divided into two parts. Some prisoners must be replenished immediately to fill the vacancies and restore combat effectiveness. The remaining prisoners will be detained separately and dealt with slowly.

Among the victors, if the general's team contributes more in the battle, he can give priority to selecting prisoners to supplement the troops in the headquarters. This is what is called "the capable work more, and the more they work more."

The definition of more efforts is somewhat complicated. It cannot be said that the teams with more decapitation in the pursuit war are that they contribute more efforts. Those teams that resist the enemy's head-on attack in the war of attrition have also made great contributions.

These teams have great casualties, but the number of beheadings is difficult to count. If you just count them as capture and capture, you will become a team with less effort.

There are also elite teams that block the enemy's assault momentum at critical moments. They block the enemy's assault momentum. The enemies they deal with are elites among the elites. Although their own casualties are small, those who are killed are all elite soldiers. It is also unfair to divide such a team into a team with less effort.

There are also reinforcements who come to reinforce. If they cannot win a battle, they will throw them away as used toilet chips. The benefits must be given.

The marshal of the Southeast Road, Wang Yuwen of Xiyang, personally presided over this 'gluttonous feast', and according to the principle of "the capable work more, the more work more, the more you work more", the degree of "more work" of the troops of each unit was defined, and then the prisoners of war were selected in order.

In order to be as fair as possible, the selection of prisoners of war is not a round, but a number of generals participating in the selection of prisoners of war. There is a limit on the number of prisoners of war that can be selected in each round, so as not to pick out all the "high-quality prisoners of war" and all the remaining ones will be selected for those who are later.

The war horse and the prisoner of war can only choose one of two, and the same can be chosen in the round. After choosing the war horse, if you want to choose the prisoner of war, you have to wait for the next round. How many levels are the prisoners of war, and how many levels are the war horses. The higher the level, the fewer the number of choices can be selected at one time.

As the person present, the most noble position, status and identity, Yuwen Wenlai "advocating justice" no one had any objections. He summoned the generals to discuss it, unify his opinions, and set rules.

Then give half an hour to ask the generals of each division to "inspecify the goods" so that they can have a clear idea. Then they immediately start to deal with prisoners of war, pick the remaining prisoners of war, and divide them into several groups to guard them separately.

Of course, the bulk of the supplies, food, and other materials must be distributed uniformly and not listed here.

The scene of selecting prisoners of war is very lively, but Yuwen Wen and the main generals do not need to come forward to choose in person. At this moment, they were talking aside and making judgments on the development of the current situation in order to decide what to do next.

According to the prisoner's confession, Yuwen Wen knew that Yuchi Dun had indeed led his troops to surround him, but the other party ran very fast in the early morning of this day. The marching chief He Ruobi, not to general Xue Shixiong, Yi and Li Yaowang chased him for the middle of the night, but in the end he still couldn't catch up.

Yuwen Wen only sighed that Yuchi Dun had great ability to escape. The opponent escaped in the last battle of Chai Village, but this time the opponent escaped again. He was really impressed by how good he was at running away.

If Yuchi Dun fled north, he would inevitably flee back to Caozhou. Then the main force of the enemy in Caozhou still threatened Xiao Huang, the capital of Bozhou Prefecture.

The battle in Ningping's ancient city meant that Yuwen Wen's plan to advance westward and Yu Wenming to join forces with Yuchi Shun had been exposed, so he could only return to Xiao Huang and continue to confront Yuchi Dun.

However, the opponent suffered heavy casualties in this battle, and lost a large number of cavalry. The combat range was reduced sharply in the future, and the threat was not as great as before.

The enemy troops invaded this time also included reinforcements sent by Yuchi Shun. Now there are no return. Yuchi Shun's troops have lost significantly, so for the Yuwen side, the next battle will be much easier.

The marching chief He Ruobi and the marching chief Li Yunxin of Yuzhou chief Li Yunxin were not under the jurisdiction of Yuwen Wen, so they must return to their respective garrisons after this battle. However, Yuwen Wen's troops fought for a day and a night of battle, exhausted and needed the other party's guards to recover for a night.

The campsite is still here. When Li Yunxin returns to Xuanhu tomorrow, he will take away some of the prisoners. The marching chief Yuwen Shiwu wants to go south to continue to sit in Huaixi, because he can take away most of the prisoners by using the waterway.

The south of Ningping ancient city is sand water, which flows to the southeast and flows into the Huai River. Yuwen Shiwu used ships to transport prisoners, saving time and effort. Without the burden formed by a large number of prisoners of war, Yuwen Wen could concentrate on dealing with Yuchi Dun.

The sun was west, and Yuwen Wen and his generals were discussing, there were cavalry coming from Wuping City to the north to report to him about the situation in Wuping. The battle broke out in the camp on the south bank of the enemy's floating bridge outside the city early this morning was also under the report content.

The leader of the Yi army, Tian Liuhu, set up an ambush outside the enemy camp, which attracted the enemy cavalry to go out to pursue. Unexpectedly, dozens of cavalry rushed to the south. After a bloody battle, the enemy cavalry did not pursue them due to heavy casualties. Tian Liuhu and his party were able to retreat to Wuping smoothly.

After hearing this news, Yuwen Wen thought about it. He thought that the dozens of cavalry coming from the south were Yuchi Dun and his group, and the other generals also had the same inference.

However, because Tian Liuhu retreated to Wuping and was unable to clean the battlefield, the casualties of the other party are unknown.

Looking at the sky in the north, Yuwen Wen was a little distracted. His Shenji Camp's Yi soldiers from the Liuhu army of Tian were stationed in Wuping, so this time he encountered the Shenji Camp, he should have participated in the war, but Yuchi Dun was so able to run away, probably in the battle with Chai Village, and then he turned bad luck into good luck again.
