The Huanglong flag fluttered in the wind. Under the Huanglong flag, the Wuwei Right Army lined up in marches, beating the sermon drums, blowing the volley, and advancing in the rhythm of military music. In the middle of the team, Tiele prisoners of war were tied into long lists one by one, and there was the Wuwei Army besieged beside him. Whoever walked slowly would immediately greet him with a whip. At the end of the team, Sun Meiyao and her cavalry team were escorted.

These cavalry had been equipped with breastplate and rode on the captured Don hippo. The bright armor shone in the sun. The tall horse and the tall armor were bright, as if the heavenly soldiers and generals had descended to earth. The prefect of Xuanhua and the prefect of Zhangyuan looked at the long line of prisoners in the distance, then the black muzzles and the sharp bayonets, and they couldn't help but kowtow. As for the gentry watching, they were even more dissatisfied. When Cixi first entered the city, they were in a day and a day.

Cixi looked down from the city tower. Although there was no fluctuation on the old face, Li Lianying still found that the empress dowager's lips were trembling slightly, and her emotions were obviously extremely excited. She just tried to suppress her emotions and prevent them from bursting out.

Emperor Tianyou leaned forward slightly, holding the handrail with both hands, widening his eyes desperately, his breathing became short and rapid, and his face also had a bit of flushing. Obviously, he was also in high excitement.

Cixi coughed, "Emperor, be more steadfast, don't lose the dignity of a monarch. Let all officials laugh at you again when they see you like this, and they won't be afraid of you."

"Dad, what you taught is that your son is just in his heart... he really can't help it. We, Dajin... can have such a great victory? Thousands of foreign soldiers, thousands of foreign soldiers were defeated by us?"

"It's not a few thousand, but tens of thousands." Cixi tried hard to stabilize her emotions, her voice was neither loud nor small, and she pretended to be calm, but those who were familiar with her could still feel the uncontrollable excitement in the old lady's words.

"It was more than 10,000 Tiel soldiers who came to Xuanhua to disturb us. They were defeated by our Great Jin Wugu Right Army. They killed more than 5,000 enemies and captured hundreds of foreign soldiers. The baggage and weapons were piled up like mountains. I have asked Han Rong to write this battle report, and I have asked Han Rong to ride a fast horse to send it down and send it to all places. With this victory, it will be easy to talk about Lao Qing and Zhang Shaoquan."

As the official army got closer, the sacred tribute to the saints "Long live my emperor" below became louder and louder, and the sounds surged up to the city like a tide. Cixi sneered.

"Did you hear this? When we first entered the city, we couldn't hear it. The power of the court also requires soldiers, power, money and food. If there is nothing, even some gentry and villagers dare not take you seriously. In Huailai, the whole banquet of the flag and han can be obtained in a moment, but in Xuanhua, I said that I couldn't get all the food. This time I want to see if they can get all the food together or not."

She said to Emperor Tianyou again: "Why did I agree to the Embassy in the back army? Isn't it just to win a few battles like today and give our Dajin a face? Isn't I know that the embassy cannot attack? But who can we fight without the embassy? Who can we fight? Since the foreign devils fought against Guangzhou, our Dajin has almost never lost several times against foreigners. Not only did the foreigners look down on us, but even the governor of the Southeast looked down on us. Southeast Mutual Protection said that it was to preserve the vitality of the Dajin. This was a good thing. But the food and money paid by the court was not seen. This means that there were no more two of us in their eyes. This time there was such a big victory. I think they would pay the food and money or not?"

Seeing that the team of prisoners was still long, Cixi showed a smile on her face and ordered Li Lianying to say, "Go, say to the little monkey and make him smarter. This foreigner looks like the same. If you go three or two more times, no one can see anything."

Li Lianying understood that this was Cixi's intentional boasting about martial arts, which made people think that there were many prisoners and wanted to play Dong Zhuo's trick to enter Beijing. He nodded and said, "I'll do it now."

"Slowly. Go and do something else. Prepare me a few rewards and give it to Zhao Guanhou. Don't be afraid of spending money. The more precious the things, the better. Let him know that the court will not treat the heroes indifferently. His favor should be changed. In addition, there are all official positions and worldly positions. Only by giving them enough rewards can this show a great victory. You can give him a briefing and wait until the emperor and I arrive in a safe place to ensure his official career will be prosperous."

In terms of the impact of Zhao Guanhou's victory at this time, in fact, it is actually better than Zeng Wenzheng's defeat in Tianjing and Zuo Ji Gaoding's Western Regions.

After all, those two battles were far away from the capital, and the victory and defeat did not have much direct impact on Cixi. However, this time, the enemy was close at hand. Once the battle was defeated, the Jingkang Incident was right in front of her. It was precisely because of the great defeat of foreign soldiers that the safety of Cixi and his son could be guaranteed. Therefore, for her, this merit not only included great military achievements, but also the merit of saving the Lord. If it were not due to the system, even the officer of the governor could be given the order.

The role of shocking foreigners is not mentioned yet. In the domestic power competition, this battle also added a very heavy weight to Cixi. He declared war on the great powers, lost a lot, resulting in the two palaces running away and the capital falling. It was originally a matter of greatly affecting the authority of the court, and the Southeast Governor, who had always had strong autonomy, was also a very important issue for the attitude of the court.

However, after this battle, the governors and governors from all over the country would understand that the court still had the strength to subdue them and dared not look down on them anymore. Whether it was the transfer of money and grain or personnel transfer, they would be more cooperative, which would be of great benefit to the authority of the court.

Furthermore, when King Qing and Zhang Shaoquan were in peace talks in Beijing, they had no trump card, and even Su Qin and Zhang Yi could not reach any good results. With a battle to make the final decision, they would be very clear about the matter of peace talks and would not be too ugly.

Cixi looked at the huge trophy convoy in this team. The little bit of sadness brought by the death of Gangliu was gone. She waved to the emperor, "Let's go, go back to the prefect's office with me, summon military aircraft first, and then call Zhao Guanhou's high. We must win over such tiger generals. With such people here, we two can be safe. Cui Yugui told the prefect Xuanhua to prepare money and grain to reward the three armies. White rice and fat pigs, and the soldiers should eat well. If they dare to have any shortage, I picked his head!"

Zhao Guanhou had a clear mind when he got Li Lianying's words. Since the empress dowager gave him the order, he would not have to worry about being criticized. He ordered Sun Meiyao's troops to walk around the city and go three times. In this way, he pretended to be a captive in a large group of foreign soldiers, but he could not really kill him. Among these prisoners, many of them were children of noble families. With these noble squire children as bargaining chips, they could always negotiate some favorable conditions during negotiations, and at least they could fight for more things.

Shortly after returning to the city, Han Rong summoned Zhao Guanhou in the signing room of the prefect's yamen. He hated Tie Lebing the most because Sister Fu was almost humiliated. This time, he heard that Zhao Guanhou defeated Tie Lebing, and his spirit was refreshed, and even his yellow face was a little bloody.

He called Zhao Guanhou to his side and said, "Guanhou, do you know what your biggest shortcomings are? It's too early to get married! If you haven't married now, your marriage with Lao Shi can be held in a grand manner. Qingdi has to recognize you as his guest in front of him. The future prospects are really unlimited. Now, you have to be a little bit worse and you will be worth it. But no matter what, I will protect a first-rate future! In addition, don't hand over your Taoist priest. If you have the chance in the future, you will play with a governor's seal, and it's not bad to put a governor."

"I thank you for the cultivation of the middle hall. But I am young and have a bad background, but I dare not think about the affairs of governors."

"What's the matter of governor? Wei Guangshou can be the governor even if he is a chef. What's wrong with you? I guarantee you, just say you can do it! Later, Lao Fu will ask you to get a reward. Let's talk about how many people are you planning to protect this time?"

One of the reasons why the Jin Dynasty is proliferating military positions is that there are too many recommendations. No matter whether they win or lose, there will be countless major cases and special cases to recommend military merits. This leads to the lack of officials, and the number of second- and third-rank officials and two or three hundred soldiers under their jurisdiction is often the case.

However, if he has made no contributions, his subordinates will become more indifferent. Zhao Guanhou has already drawn up a list on the way, and the number of people is not too many, and the recommendations are not too overly prosecuted. However, after seeing this, Han Rong shook his head, "It's too few. The officials are also given too low. If this is the law of protection, others will not believe that you have lost 20,000 troops in this battle."

"Twenty thousand?" Zhao Guanhou learned from the confession of the prisoners that he was facing was about 4,000 Tie Le soldiers. According to the method of double the number, it was almost enough to report 8,000. On his side, there were more than 700 casualties in the headquarters, and the casualties of the cannon fodder troops such as the King's Army were extremely huge. Most of the troops fled in the chaos and could not be accommodated. If the casualties of the Right Army were only calculated in this battle, it was far lower than that of the Tie Le Army. If other troops were included, the casualties would be Tie Le had the advantage.

But Han Rong shook his head and said, "The account cannot be settled like this. What the court needs now is a big victory, one that is enough to inspire people and the civil and military personnel to understand that the Jin Kingdom can win the great victory of foreigners. Only with such a heart first can we talk about it later. If we don't even have this courage, then we can't negotiate anything and can only be slaughtered by others. So these Tielite people... must be 20,000. The battlefield corpses can be said to be more than 5,000, and the captives are those who cannot be used for the bill. In the future, they will have to be handed over to Tielite people. This part cannot be changed. As for the capture, just say more. Anyway, no one wants your things. We just need to make the Lao Fu happy and make the people of the world proud. Don't worry about anything else. Besides, the higher your subordinates are, the higher you are the superiors. People can carry people in flower sedan chairs, and there are still more things you have to learn."

Zhao Guanhou nodded quickly, thanking Han Rong for his cultivation, and handed over a gift list. "This is a little gadget that Bei Zhi picked on the battlefield. Please accept it with a smile in the middle hall. The things have been delivered to your mansion. Bei Zhi has a shallow eye socket. I have never seen anything. I can't tell the good or bad ones. Don't laugh at me."

"A gadget on the battlefield? This is good, I'll take a look." Han Rong took the gift list and glanced at it, put it in his sleeve, patted his shoulder and said, "I know what you are worried about, I'm afraid that the censors will participate, right? At that time, many people on the battlefield personally experienced the battle formation and knew how many foreigners were. But you are confused. This trick was changed by the Old Buddha. Who dares to expose this, not to seek death by himself? Besides, they will not expose you because they are present. They will experience the battle formation personally, not afraid of danger, and kill the Yigang. Such a contribution can also be added to them. Let me tell you, not only will anyone expose this cowhide, but they will help you to smooth things out. If anyone wants to expose this Western scenery, those ministers will tear him apart!"

"Everything depends on the cultivation of the central government." Zhao Guanhou thanked first, and then said to Han Rong: "Zhongtang, the official has one more thing, I want to tell you..."

All the mansions in the city have been expropriated as residences of princes and ministers, but in terms of distribution, the ministers who fled to the city first were mostly distributed with relatively remote houses and dilapidated houses, and even some shops were allocated for them to live in. Those house doors that looked like some were given to the ministers who stayed in the army and were bombed with artillery shells with the Right Army.

Several ministers who followed Zhao Guanhou to the city were gathered together at this time, discussing how to write memorials. These people were all Master Du on the way, and they had no family business, and they didn't even bring their relatives, so they didn't run away at first, but this time they lost a good deal and actually moved into a big house with two in the yard. The servant brought tea, and the few people were talking while drinking tea.

"The achievements of the Right Army of the Wuwei Guard must be requested. We have to write a book and try to hand it over tomorrow."

"That's right, this book must be written better. Foreign soldiers, I think it's 10,000 people..."

"Ten thousand? You counted yesterday. Cossacks alone are ten thousand. I have heard that in the military system of foreigners, there are divisions and regiments. What we met yesterday was the Cavalry Division of the Cossacks. What we met today was another Tielite division. The two divisions combined would have to be 20,000. These are war soldiers and there must be auxiliary soldiers. Just write 50,000. Hands and blades fight each other, life and death. Although our officials have no power to tie a chicken, they have the intention to serve the country. They have a short dagger and a short sword, and they will defend the iron cavalry and spear without retreating..."

In another courtyard, several aides hired by the bannermen wrote there, "The slave was alone and killed three foreign soldiers, and captured one eagle flag... According to the slaves, the number of foreign soldiers was actually 100,000. They were divided into five routes in front, back, left and right, and each route led the troops to command the commander..."

The memorials carefully prepared were released quickly, which not only praised the Right Army of Wuwei and himself. As Han Rong said, if the cake was to be bigger, everyone was not confused. He knew that after this incident, the officialdom would be reshuffled. After this battle, he had experienced this battle, which was a huge capital. If he could not properly utilized and turned capital into his own help, then the officialdom in these years would be in vain.

Han Rong's temporary residence was the richest man in the city. He entered the courtyard several times, which was extremely grand. Sister Fu looked at the filial piety sent by Zhao Guanhou, including antique calligraphy and paintings, as well as gold and silver jewelry. She suddenly pulled out a hairpin from it and looked at it carefully, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

Han Rong's wife asked, "Fuzi, why are you crying?"

"My mom, my daughter recognizes this hairpin as the sixth princess in the Prince's Mansion. She likes this hairpin the most and never leaves her body. She wears it every time she meets. She...she now..."

"This... I didn't expect that even the golden branches and jade leaves were ruined to the hands of these foreign soldiers. Foreigners are indeed hateful!"

"Mom, if it weren't for that Lord Zhao, my daughter... I'm afraid my daughter wouldn't be able to meet you."
