Due to the defection of the District heroes and Changsha soldiers before the battle, the Jingzhou army directly collapsed, turning what was originally a difficult offensive into an extremely easy battle of annihilation.
The battle was over almost before it started. Not only did Liu Jingjun suffer very few casualties, but even the Jingzhou Army did not suffer many casualties, only a few hundred people were killed or injured.
In addition to the more than 4,000 Jingzhou troops who surrendered, there were still 20,000 civilians in the camp. Most of them came from Luo County, Yiyang, Xiajun, Hanchang County, and Linxiang in the north of Changsha.
Liu Jingjun captured about 30,000 Jingzhou water infantry troops before and after him. Adding in the 20,000 civilians, the total number must have exceeded the 50,000 mark.
The food consumption of 50,000 people is extremely astonishing. If calculated on an annual basis, the grain expenditure will be as high as more than one million dendrobium. Even if calculated on a daily basis, thousands of dendrobium rice will be needed.
Fortunately, the Jingzhou Army had moved all its baggage to the new camp to prevent flooding. More than 150,000 bushels of dendrobium, enough grain to feed 50,000 people for 50 days, are now at Liu Jingjun's disposal, so there is no need to worry about food for the time being.
What made Liu Jing and his generals the happiest was undoubtedly the acquisition of all the horses of the Jingzhou Army, including about 1,300 good horses that could be used in battle, and hundreds of draft horses.
Jingzhou has always lacked good horses. Liu Biao spent ten years collecting the refugees in Guanzhong and attacking the generals in Liangzhou to accumulate the wealth. Now Liu Jing has benefited from everything.
With these troops and horses, Liu Jing could finally form his own cavalry unit, and Han Guang and his old Han and Qiang tribes also had a place to use.
The armors and weapons obtained were also piled up in mountains, not to mention them.
As Ou Xiong was the biggest contributor to this battle, Liu Jing naturally could not ignore him, so as soon as the battle was over, he immediately called him on board the ship for a meeting.
After all, the two had a grudge. Who knows if he would suddenly go crazy and do something disobedient after meeting. Yu Zheng was extremely wary of him and arranged for soldiers to guard Liu Jing. Cai Sheng, Ma Zhou and others also rushed there.
Come.
Liu Jing didn't blame Yu Zheng for making a fuss. After all, he was not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. I believe even Ou Xiong wouldn't be surprised.
Of course Ou Xiong would not be offended. He even took the initiative to hand over the sword on his waist before entering the door and came to see Liu Jing empty-handed. He did not dare to claim to be a hero and kept his attitude very low. "Ou Xiong, the sinner, pays homage to Liu Jing."
.”
Liu Jing stood up and came to Ou Xiong, while Yu Zheng followed closely behind him holding a halberd.
Yu Zhengnai was a ranger from Luli and was good at swordsmanship. However, it would be rude to use the sword directly. However, if the sword is sheathed, it would not be able to face emergencies. The handhalberd perfectly solves this problem. As long as Ou Xiong dares to
If there is any abnormal movement, Yu Zheng will definitely be able to kill him immediately.
Liu Jing lifted up Ou Xiong, who was prostrating himself, and asked with a smile: "I call myself a 'sinner,' where does the crime come from?" Then, before Ou Xiong could speak, he waved his hand and said, "I ask myself, I am still a man of integrity.
People, since they promise in public to 'let go of all past grudges', they will definitely keep their promises."
"Liu Jun has a broad mind and is really a very special person. I have lived for so long, and I have seen countless heroes and wise men, but none of them can compare with Liu Jun. Thanks to Liu Jun for never giving up and taking him under his command, I will definitely
Even if you use it as an eagle and a dog, you will not hesitate to use it even if it is a waste of time and energy."
After finishing speaking, Ou Xiong quietly looked at Liu Jing in front of him, who was more than a head taller than him. He couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart. When he fell into Liu Jing's hands, although he looked like an adult, he was actually just a seventeen-year-old boy.
During the three years that Ou Xiong was guarding the river in Baqiu, the name that was often mentioned in his mouth was not his relatives and friends, but Liu Jing. He regretted his recklessness countless times. He had a hundred ways to deal with Liu Jing, but he just chose
I chose the stupidest method.
But looking at it now, he felt that he had taken it too much for granted. Liu Jing was a hero who was able to destroy an entire country with just one county. Even Fuzhidan Dan was not as good as him. What could he do to compete with such a hero?
Liu Jing pointed to Cai Sheng, Ma Zhou and others on one side, and said to Ou Xiong with a smile: "I don't need to introduce them to these people. They should all know each other."
"Brother Cai, Brother Ma..."
Ou Xiong had been famous for a long time and was very old, but he was the first to salute. Cai Sheng and Ma Zhou, although they disdained Ou Xiong in their hearts, had to return the salute, but their attitude was rather perfunctory and they looked indifferent.
Liu Jing pretended not to see him, as the old saying goes: "People's hearts are different, each has its own face." Everyone has his own ideas, and there will inevitably be disagreements and conflicts. It is just a fool's dream to think that everyone under his command will be harmonious, as long as there is no internal fighting.
As long as the private sector is used to abolish the public sector, it will be fine.
Next, Liu Jing introduced Liu Zhu, Liu Liang and other "rising stars" to Ou Xiong. When Ou Xiong was rampant in Linxiang, Liu Zhu, Liu Liang and others were either stealing in the market or selling fish in the market.
A person who is not allowed to appear on the stage. In the past, how could Ou Xiong look at him seriously?
But sometimes life's encounters are so bizarre. They were humble people until they met Liu Jing, and they immediately rose up to the top. Now Liu Jing regards himself as his heart, leading the navy or infantry to follow Liu Jing to defeat the Jingzhou army.
The future is limitless.
Ou Xiong? If nothing else happens, he will never be able to see their backs in this life.
…………
The severe pain in his chest made Huang Zhong wake up from his coma. He opened his eyelids with all his strength and found a masked man standing in front of him, holding a dagger, as if he wanted to do something evil.
Huang Zhong was shocked and subconsciously wanted to get up. Pain suddenly hit his body like a tide, especially in his chest, and he almost fainted again.
Just listen to the masked man saying: "Don't move. I am not a bad person, but a Changsha military doctor. I am treating your injuries. You are also very lucky. Five arrows were hit in your body, but all of them avoided the vital points."
Huang Zhong was startled when he heard this, and then remembered what happened before.
Last night, the Xiang River overflowed and a flash flood broke out. Most of the Jingzhou Army camp was submerged in an instant. Huang Zhong was swept into the torrential flood in his sleep, and he only managed to survive by relying on a saddle.
Huang Zhong drifted with the flood for a long time before climbing up a hill to escape the danger.
At that time, three to four hundred people had gathered on Tugang. Huang Zhong had the highest official position, so he naturally took over the leadership. Later, under his command, everyone rescued hundreds more people.
During Japan and China, Liu Jing had hundreds of warships
Coming in dense waves, each "isolated island" looked at the wind and descended.
Most of the Tugang where Huang Zhong was located also wanted to surrender, but Huang Zhong refused, which aroused dissatisfaction among many soldiers. When Liu Jingjun's troops pressed the border and informed the Jingzhou Army commander that Kuai Yue had committed suicide, Huang Zhong still refused to surrender.
