By dusk, Haiyang County had been completely cleaned up by the Ming army.
Everyone related to the Zheng family had their property confiscated and their entire family beheaded. The household registration of the treasury and the county office, as well as a series of ancient books, were all protected by the Jinyiwei.
In this battle, the Ming army suffered 175 casualties and 47 died. Among the 2,300 Zheng soldiers, 1,800 were captured and 500 were killed or injured. However, those who were injured were sent to heaven when they were cleaning up the battlefield.
It sounded ridiculous. In a war of tens of thousands of people, there were actually less than a thousand casualties?
But in fact, this was the battlefield of the cold weapon era. Not many people would be willing to fight to the death. It was normal for the casualties to be small. Even Zhu Bomu had his aides record it truthfully.
In fact, in ancient battlefields, it would be very difficult to kill hundreds of thousands of people if they did not kill the people who surrendered or kill the people to become military workers.
Unless it was a dimensional attack like the Westerners invading America.
However, there were also people who were slandered. For example, one of Zhu Bomu's ancestral relatives, Ming Wuzong Zhu Houzhao.
This was the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty after Xuanzong. He led 50,000 Ming soldiers to battle with the 50,000 Mongolian troops led by Dayan Khan.
Because of the style of writing in the history books of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, this battle was not known to many people. However, in reality, this was considered a major war between Mongolia and the Ming Dynasty.
Dayan Khan of the Mongol Empire was the second ruler of the Mongol Empire after Kublai Khan. He was known as the " little prince " of the Golden Family since he was very young.
This nickname ran through his entire life, and he did not disappoint the expectations of the Mongol elders. He personally led his troops to conquer the northern Karkha, the western Wala, and the eastern Horqin.
His sphere of influence extended from the Horqin Grassland to the Aral Sea in Central Asia. He originally wanted to bring 50,000 people to the Ming Dynasty to harvest grass and plunder some things.
Unfortunately, he had bumped into the biggest weirdo among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and then…
He didn't even last a year, and this old brother died. It was probably because of his injuries on the battlefield, and that battle was also very vague.
Both sides clearly had a total of 100,000 troops. After fighting for several days, the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty immediately wrote down the results of the battle.
The Tartars suffered 16 casualties, and the Ming army suffered 52 casualties.
If you looked at it as six out of ten or two out of five, it would be fine. However, to a normal person, it would be the Mongolian army with sixteen casualties and the Ming army with sixteen casualties.
Fifty-two people.
The key was that the civil officials who continued to write this history were also confused. They added a sentence at the end,"It was the year after the border, but they did not dare to go deep."
Are you kidding me?
Only 16 people had died. Why did the Mongolians not dare to go deep into the valley?
Because the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty had smeared the Emperor's name, even Dayan Khan had been smeared as a moron.
He reckoned that after he found out, he would bring his ancestors along to beat up the civil servant who recorded the historical records. He might even beat him up together with the Ming Dynasty emperor…
In any case, Haiyang City had been conquered, and not a single person from the 3,000 Battalion had been injured. The casualties were mostly soldiers, and the results of the battle were also very good.
There were more than seventy thousand people in Haiyang City, along with the 170,000 taels of tax from the treasury and the county office, 230,000 stones of land tax, as well as iron and various rare tributes, all of which were taken by Zhu Bomu. The only bad thing was that Shen Lian was quick to pull his horse's reins.
By the time he turned around, the 3,000 Battalion had already charged into Haiyang City. He had completely lost the experience of personally fighting.
After that, Zhu Bomu wanted to get Shen Lian to beat him up, but after thinking about it, Shen Lian was worried about his safety.
The modern world lacked human feelings. After escaping south for three years, Zhu Bomu paid special attention to the human feelings of others.
Beat up a person who treated him well? Sigh, I really can't do it.
Thinking of this, Zhu Bomu flipped through the ancient books in the county and continued,""We can ask the civil officials of Liu Zhao Mountain to go south. We can use today's tactics to attack Hongji and Xin 'an later.”
Hongji, Xin 'an, and Haiyang were both coastal cities without rivers. They believed that attacking them would be smoother than attacking Haiyang.
"Understood!" Hearing Zhu Bomu's words, Shen Lian cupped his fists and nodded.
He did not dare to provoke Zhu Bomu now. Zhu Bomu had rolled his eyes at him for the entire afternoon. He had just stopped Zhu Bomu from leading the army to attack the city. If he was disobedient now, Shen Lian swore that Zhu Bomu would give him two punches.
Zhu Bomu felt a little regretful when he saw how obedient Shen Lian was. He regretted that he did not have a reason to beat Shen Lian up. However, just as he thought of this, he remembered something else and immediately said,
" Oh right, those captured soldiers of Zheng's army and the servants of the noble families were sent to the mountains to mine for stones and wood."
"Don't worry, I've already arranged for people to do it. It just so happens that some soldiers are injured and need to rest.”Shen Lian knew from the start that Zhu Bomu would do this, so he let the Jinyiwei take over the captives as soon as they entered the city.
Zhu Bomu chose to behead the direct relatives and collateral relatives within three generations.
Most of these people were innocent. Moreover, he needed people to help him collect resources, so he would throw them into the mountains for a few years.
