The battlefield was cleaned, the casualties were counted, and then the wounded were transported back to the city. As for the soldiers, Ling Yun did not let them dig big pits and bury them on the spot, but burned them and put the ashes of the dead soldiers in boxes.
When they return in triumph, their ashes will be transported back to Nanyi Prefecture. Except for a very small number of people in the Nanyi Army, the rest are all Lingnan people, and one-third and nearly two-thirds of them are from Nanyi Prefecture.
, naturally you can’t bring them home safely, so send their ashes home, at least to allow their souls to return to their hometown.
Ling Yun did not make his own decision in this matter, because in ancient times, burning corpses was against human morality, and making private suggestions would arouse the resentment of the soldiers. Therefore, he put forward his opinions in the army, and then asked the soldiers to vote, and finally got the result.
Two-thirds of the soldiers in the army agreed with this measure.
Just as Ling Yun thought, if they can't go back alive, then taking their ashes back will at least allow their souls to find their way to their hometown and avoid dying in a foreign land.

If there is a war, someone will definitely die. This is not something that Ling Yun can decide. All he can do is to reduce the casualties of the soldiers and strive to bring them back safely.
In addition to using the knowledge of future generations to upgrade equipment, the most important thing is to train, train and train again. As the saying goes, sweat more during training and bleed less during battle. The training of the Nanyi Army can be said to be the most frequent and hardest training among the Daqian army.
Practice five times a week, all year round.
At the same time, he is also the one who invests the most in the Daqian army. Ling Yun is not lacking in the nutrients that should be supplemented every day, and has formulated a standard meal plan for the soldiers, at least so that their bodies can be quickly replenished after training, so apart from the military expenses
, the consumption of one level is a big deal.
After this battle, it is obvious that the difference between the Nanyi Army and the other three armies is obvious. Whether in terms of the number of casualties or the number of enemies annihilated, the Nanyi Army clearly has the advantage. This may be the result of training the army!
Just as they were transporting all the wounded back to the city, the soldiers who were chasing Li Xiuran's army suddenly came back and said, "Report to General, Captain Hu and the brothers of the Sirius Army are blocked on the edge of the cliff."
"Blocked?"
Ling Yun was startled and praised, "Okay! Pass the order and tell him to just block the opening and there is no need to attack."
"Yes, General!"
If you siege but don't attack, the rebels will naturally collapse without attacking. At that time, if you surrender your troops without fighting, you will win the final victory of this war, and the rebel general will fall into his hands.
In this way, the rebels will lose a general, which will be more conducive to subsequent battles.
The road was blocked, and the rebels were stationed at the foot of the cliff.

For three days in a row, everything was calm.
The Nanyi Army changed its defenses once a day and three times in three days. A total of 5,000 soldiers were deployed here. As soon as the rebels showed up, they would be shot and killed mercilessly.
Ling Yun's order is that anyone who refuses to surrender will be shot.
During this period, the Nanyi Army shot and killed more than a hundred rebels. None of them surrendered, but wanted to take the opportunity to defect. They never expected to be shot dead mercilessly as soon as they came out. Now the intersection is full of people.
There are more than a hundred corpses, and the number is increasing every day.
On the seventh day, the rebels finally reached the point where they were out of ammunition and food.
On this day, Guo Yixiu was in charge personally.
Ling Yun also rushed to the battlefield. As soon as he arrived, Guo Yixiu immediately reported the situation of the rebels.
"General, the rebels launched two waves of attacks at night, but they were blocked by our soldiers."
Ling Yun nodded and said seriously, "Okay, Li Xiuran is a very skilled martial artist. We must not let him escape."
Guo Yixiu assured, "General, don't worry, our army is always watching. Even if a mosquito flies by, we can kill it."

"hehe…"
Although this is an exaggeration, considering the current situation, the Nanyi Army can indeed prevent the rebels from showing their heads. Especially during the day, as long as there is a slight movement and a wave of the hand, a rain of arrows will fall, directly shooting people into pieces.
Sift, one can imagine how strict their guarding is.
"Yes, General. In the past seven days, a total of 300 rebels have surrendered."
Ling Yun thought thoughtfully and ordered, "Ask the soldiers to move forward a little and shout loudly inside that those who surrender will not be killed."
"Yes, General!"
After Guo Yixiu received the order, he turned around and immediately passed on the order.
Then fifteen people came out of the queue and slowly approached. When they reached a certain distance, they stopped, slit their throats and shouted inside, "The general has an order, and those who surrender will not be killed!"
"The general has an order not to kill those who surrender!"
"The general has an order not to kill those who surrender!"

In the cave, there were echoes of people surrendering without killing, but there was no movement in the cave. When you get closer, you can find that the side of the cave is filled with corpses like a hill. The rebels are also dizzy with hunger, but even so, they are still
No one dared to say surrender, because the people who said this were already piled nearby.
Since entering the foot of the cliff mountain, Li Xiuran has ordered that anyone who dares to surrender will be killed without mercy, and the corpses on this hill are the best witness. Even if they are dizzy with hunger and cannot exert any strength, they still
Don't dare to walk out from here.
It's not that they don't want to live, nor do they want to surrender, but once they have strange thoughts, they will be killed on the spot after being discovered. Under pressure, no one dares to surrender.
In the past seven days, they had organized many breakouts. However, the crossbows of the Nanyi Army were specially used for defense. As long as they were shot, they would be seriously injured even if they did not die, so they could not break out at all.
Even if they send out archers, it will be of no avail, because the range of their archers is far less than the range of the Nanyi army's crossbows. Even if they use shields to block the front, the Nanyi army will use powerful crossbows to pierce their shields and let them
There is no hope at all.
Li Xiuran's lips turned white and he lowered his head in silence, but he was extremely aware of the situation he was facing now. If he didn't break out of the encirclement, even he would die here.
Suddenly, he stood up, looked around, and his eyes became sharp, giving people the illusion that he had regained his previous kingly status and was domineering.
The soldiers gradually stood up and looked at him with countless eyes. At this moment, they felt that their general was back and the king was back.
The soldiers firmly believed that as long as the original general returned, he would be able to lead them to break through the siege and escape.
Li Xiuran regrouped, led the remaining troops to defeat the generals, and launched a final round of breakout. If this battle failed, they would be defeated. They had no escape route. The only thing they had was to follow their generals and move forward without hesitation to break through the enemy's prison.

"Soldiers, are you afraid?"
Moments before breaking out, Li Xiuran looked at the soldiers and asked something he had never asked before.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"
For some unknown reason, the soldiers, who had been so hungry that they were completely naked, shouted loudly as if they had come to life.
"Hahaha…"
Li Xiuran smiled wildly. With so many loyal soldiers, even if he was surrounded by enemies, what was there to be afraid of?
"Okay! Since you are not afraid, I, general, will take you out and let the enemy see the power of my general again."
Pointing his halberd forward, he roared angrily, "Soldiers, follow my general and charge!"
"Go ahead..."
Ling Yun stood on the hill, looking ahead, watching the enemies desperately break through the encirclement one by one, only to show their heads for a moment, but fell to their crossbows one by one. He was filled with emotion, paused for a long time, and looked at Guo Yixiu,
He said rather seriously, "Yixiu, let them surrender!"

For some reason, Ling Yun felt a little cruel, so he ordered Guo Yixiu to allow the rebels to surrender, which would reduce unnecessary casualties.
Of course, Ling Yun is not a virgin, so he naturally understands the principle of not being in charge of soldiers. He cannot guarantee whether those who surrender will survive, because the rebels who surrender will all be handed over to Wu Feichen for execution. Will they be executed?
Killing was decided by Wu Feichen alone, and he would not interfere.
I did this just because I didn’t want more people to die miserably on the spot. It was obvious that there were only two options to choose from before the rebels. Surrender or you could save your life. Failure to surrender would only lead to death. One thing can be guaranteed, Li Xiuran will definitely do it.
He wanted to die, because he was the vanguard general of the Dali rebels and the culprit of this attack. There had been examples of massacres in the city. It could be said that he was notorious and dehumanized. Such a person, no matter who fell into the hands, would definitely die.
.
"The general has an order. Those who surrender will live!"
"The general has an order. Those who surrender will live!"
…
After breaking through and being repelled, Li Xiuran, a group of generals, and the surviving soldiers leaned against the side of the mountain, just enough to block the Nanyi Army's view and allow them to rest.
At this time, their faces were slumped and dejected, and they no longer had the arrogance and arrogance they had before. When they heard the Nanyi Army shouting slogans that surrender would save their lives, everyone's eyes kept flickering, with some despair and calculation...with different expressions.
different.
Li Xiuran knew that he had no way to save himself, and would definitely end up dead without a burial place. Before he died, he suddenly felt kindhearted. He stood up slowly, glanced at the soldiers around him unhurriedly, and then sighed, "It's me,
I'm sorry everyone, if I hadn't been arrogant, ignorant, arrogant and unwilling to retreat, I wouldn't have let you end up like this."
Duan Hongcai said with emotion, "General, you..."

Once upon a time, Li Xiuran relied on his outstanding military exploits and notorious reputation to always stand high and never bow his head. Even if he was besieged by Daqian's army, he would not retreat. Perhaps in his eyes, Daqian's army had been out of battle for a long time. , they are just a group of rabble, how can they be his opponent.
Nearly 70% of the attack on Qiannan and the two counties was achieved by Li Xiuran, which led to his arrogance and arrogance. If the early attack had not been so smooth, if the army of Qiannan had not been completely defeated and defeated, he would not have been allowed to do so. He mistakenly believed that the Qiannan Army, and even the Daqian Army, were all defeated and remnants... Duan Hongcai was very relieved to see Li Xiuran bow his head now, but unfortunately, it all came too late.
Li Xiuran looked at Duan Hongcai with mixed feelings. If he had followed his advice, he would not have fallen into a desperate situation. He smiled bitterly and said, "Hongcai, it's all my fault. If I hadn't... listened to your advice, our army wouldn't have Falling deeply into this, reduced to a desperate situation at the mercy of others.”
Then he looked at the crowd and said with emotion, "Soldiers, it's me. I, Li Xiuran, can't bear with you for all this."
