Chapter 821: Surrender(2/2)
His golden crown and golden belt were very conspicuous, telling the Han soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield that this was a big fish.
So, he was rushed to the Chinese army's tent, where he was bandaged and the bleeding was stopped.
Then his identity was confirmed.
Zhelan King Gutu!
Since the war between Han and Hungary, the Han army has achieved the greatest result!
Although Gu Tu is still in a coma, he is much happier than those Dahu Guards who were trampled to pulp and cut into pieces during the breastplate charge.
But his fate may be even more tragic than those who died on the battlefield!
Tian Jian heard that this invader chief would be sacrificed to the ancestors of the Han family in the Ancestral Temple in the future.
There are even rumors that Marquis Dongcheng has written to the court, requesting that the captive chieftain's body be cast into bronze, and then made into a kneeling statue, which will forever kneel in front of Emperor Gao's mausoleum in Changling.
Look how miserable the intruder's fate will be!
Before that, of course, it would be best for this captive chief to stay alive.
"You all go and get busy!" Tian Jian ordered in a formal manner: "Before dusk today, the battlefield must be cleaned up to avoid the breeding of plague and disease!"
Today is the morning of the third day after the war.
The high temperature in autumn caused many Huns corpses that were not buried to begin to rot and emit a foul odor.
The Han army's corpse collection team refused to bury the Huns' corpses yesterday afternoon.
Their main task now has become to make coffins for the fallen Han soldiers so that they can be sent back to their hometowns for burial after the war.
Therefore, the task of burying the corpse became the job of the prisoners.
Among the tasks Tian Jian accepted, there was also the task of supervising and urging the captives managed by these Zhelan nobles to work seriously.
This is currently known among the Han army as using barbarians to control barbarians.
That is, let the old captured nobles manage and supervise other captives working for the Han army, and at the same time restrain these captives.
This policy is very effective.
Many problems were solved at once, greatly reducing the burden and pressure on the Han army.
Of course, the Han army was not afraid of these guys taking the opportunity to escape or cause trouble.
All the prisoners have now been disarmed and have lost all ability to resist.
More importantly, the Han army already controlled a vast plain with a radius of dozens of miles.
No one can escape from the area controlled by the Han army.
Moreover, Zhelan's prisoners had absolutely no intention of escaping.
There were more than 3,000 prisoners of war in total, all of whom seemed to have accepted their fate.
Work conscientiously for the Han army.
Even every morning, there were many prisoners of war. The first thing they did when they got up was to quickly kowtow and bow to the camp of the Han army's center and cuirassiers, as if they were worshiping gods.
And the work of cleaning and smoothing the cuirassiers' horses became even more popular.
Some people even witnessed that some Hun prisoners of war secretly hid some of the hair that fell from the cuirassiers' horses and took them back like treasures. Then they paid homage in the morning and evening.
Some prisoners of war who were more skilled in craftsmanship even used clay to make the appearance of a cuirassier, placed it on their bedside, and worshiped it like gods.
This left many people speechless.
I feel like something is wrong with the style of painting.
But no matter what, the Han army now knows one fact - Zhelan, the terrible enemy in the past, the executioner who repeatedly invaded the Great Wall defense line and killed countless Han soldiers and civilians, no longer exists.
It can no longer pose any threat to the Great Wall!
…………………………………………
Tian Jian took these Hun noble prisoners of war who were placed under his jurisdiction and control out of the big tent, and then directed them to clean up the remaining remains and bones on the distant battlefield.
Although he was still a little rusty in doing this kind of thing, he made some mistakes.
But subconsciously, he couldn't help but imitate his mentor's every move.
Therefore, the layout is quite stylish.
Moreover, things like this are not complicated and are not beyond his capabilities.
Therefore, after a short period of unfamiliarity, he started to command with style.
This made Yi Zong, who had been observing him silently, nod slightly.
Leading troops or commanding something like this requires talent.
People without talent need to put in countless hard work and sweat before they can get started.
And gifted people, like those geniuses in history, can understand everything at once and learn it quickly.
For example, Xiang Yu, Han Xin, Bai Qi and Wu Qi.
They are all such geniuses.
Now, Yi Zong felt that this young man named Tian Jian might be a piece of rough jade. If he carves it well, he might become a unique general in the future!
"Your Majesty, do you have a love for talents?" Next to Yi Zong, a school captain said with a smile.
Yi Zong smiled noncommittally and said, "Brother Xian, please stop joking. Let's talk about the next action!"
Yi Zong walked to a map that had just been drawn out and looked at the places marked on the map where the main forces of other Xiongnu tribes were entrenched.
The Zhelan tribe has been wiped out.
The hussar army has also completed its repairs.
Xiliu Camp, which bypassed Daiguo's Great Wall and attacked the Huns' baggage and logistics bases, also achieved victory and sent messengers to communicate.
They will arrive at Wuzhou Fortress as scheduled in two days and join the Hussars army.
In this way, the Han army formed two powerful attack arrows on the north and south sides.
You can see clearly through the map.
These two arrows, from the north and south directions, attacked the remnants of the Huns in the middle.
They are already turtles in a urn, unable to fly even if they have no wings!
Eating them would not be difficult for the current Han army.
Now, the problem has become how to deal with these Huns at the minimum cost.
"Yin Zhixie still has more than 30,000 people under his command, so it's hard to deal with them!" Yi Zong said with a slight frown.
He knew very well that the more than 30,000 Huns cavalry commanded by Yin Zhixie would definitely not stupidly bump into the Han army's breastplate array like the Zhelan tribe.
They will definitely try their best to delay the matter.
Originally, the Huns wanted to delay, and it didn't matter if they were righteous.
A turtle in a urn, a dying person, it is normal to want to die later.
However, from the captive Zhelan, Yi Zong learned a terrible news - Yin Zhixie might be trying to kill everyone, using corpses to create plague and spread diseases in the Han Dynasty, turning an area of two hundred miles into a digital
A terrifying hell that no one dares to approach for years.
This information caught Yi Zong's attention.
