"Hahaha, everyone, after this battle, Grassland Hu has suffered heavy losses. It will no longer be possible for us to pose a danger to the coalition of princes!" As the battle drew to dusk, the shouts of killing finally stopped, and the war was completely declared over. I listened to the messages from the generals under my command.
News, Li Xiang said with a smile to all the princes.
"The King of Henan is right. This battle should be a rare victory for us in the Central Plains. After this battle, our northern frontier of the Han Dynasty will be worry-free for at least ten years!" It can be seen that the princes are also very happy at this time.
, even the expressions of several feudal princes who had always had enmity softened greatly, and they were not as tit-for-tat as usual.
According to statistics, although Temujin, Li Shimin, Tuoba Tao, and Yelu Abaoji finally broke out, they also suffered heavy losses in the process. Among the four forces, a few lost more than 30,000 troops.
, if there were more, more than 40,000 soldiers and horses would be lost.
As for the most unlucky Nurhaci, this battle can almost be said to have wiped out all the troops in his hands. Except for Nurhaci himself and some important generals who either sneaked out or were killed, Nurhaci only defeated ten or twenty thousand soldiers.
The soldiers fled in all directions during the battle, and others were either killed on the spot or captured.
In short, after this battle, Nurhachi's power plummeted. His old nest was destroyed by Wei Qing, and the army that went out to fight was almost wiped out. It can be said that Nurhachi has become the biggest loser in this battle.
Next, Nurhachi's life will not be easy. The grassland is about the weak and the strong. After this battle, Nurhachi's strength has weakened to this point. How can other grassland forces let go of this opportunity? Especially Nurhaci's neighbor Tuoba Tao, what can he do?
Will miss an opportunity to expand his power.
In other words, Nurhachi's next biggest enemy may no longer be the Central Plains princes who have been fighting before, but other forces on the grassland.
In today's battle, coupled with the previous battles, the grassland army has almost shrunk by more than half. In fact, the battle has come to an end now.
Both the Central Plains Princes Alliance and the grassland forces understand that after today's battle, the remaining forces of the grassland forces can no longer pose a threat to the Central Plains Princes Alliance.
In addition to the losses of soldiers, the casualties of the grassland generals were also considerable, including Aisin Gioro Manggurtai, Aisin Gioro Amin, Hesheli Soetu, Suk Saha, Yelu Guozhen,
Deer, Aoyu, Fan Hu... Generals big and small were killed directly in battle.
Some of these people died in the battle at the beginning of the war, some died in the rescue of Nurhachi, and a considerable number of them died in the battle during the breakout.
In addition, among the various forces in the grassland, except for these named generals, the remaining centurions and thousands of captains have suffered an unknown amount of damage, and their vitality can be said to be severely damaged.
It's just a pity that Temujin and Li Shimin are really good people. If they had reacted slower, the coalition of princes could have completed the final encirclement, and the losses of these grassland forces would have been much heavier.
In addition, more than 100,000 horses were captured in this battle. This number refers to the horses that can continue to go to the battlefield. As for the horses that were killed or seriously injured, there are countless more. These things are definitely the war horses of the princes since this battle.
The biggest gain for the coalition forces.
Even Li Xiang attaches great importance to such a large group of war horses. Fortunately, the number of princes is large enough. After these war horses are divided into the hands of various princes, the number will not be so terrifying. Otherwise, if any prince can get it individually
A war horse of this scale has developed over several years and will definitely become one of Li Xiang's biggest rivals in the future.
Except for the war horses, the rest of the seizures were weapons. Although the Central Plains princes looked down upon the quality of these weapons on the grasslands, they also attached great importance to them.
Although the quality of such a large batch of weapons is somewhat poor, as long as the princes go back and process them, they can definitely save a considerable amount of military expenses.
Killing 10,000 enemies and damaging 8,000 themselves, they achieved such a great victory. The allied forces of the Central Plains princes also suffered nearly 100,000 casualties.
Among them, the four princes Liu Bang, Yuan Shao, Yang Jian, and Qin Zheng suffered the most heavy casualties. Liu Bang, Yuan Shao, and Yang Jian, together with the princes' cavalry temporarily led by Xiang Yu, were responsible for flanking Nurhaci's army and entangling various forces. This loss
Naturally it won't be small.
As for the cavalry from the princes temporarily led by Xiang Yu, they are not Xiang Yu's men. Even if Xiang Yu sells iron and steel, he will never be able to get such a large-scale cavalry. His cavalry is mainly composed of subordinates of Liu Bang, Yang Jian, and Qin Zheng. The losses are
It's not Xiang Yu's manpower either.
In terms of generals, the Central Plains princes alliance lost Ren Bi, Gao Wei, Zhu Lingshi, Xiong Xin, Zhao Dan, Fan Yuqi, Gao Yan, Gao Dejie, Gao Yanping, Kong Shun, Feng Li, Deng Sheng,
Zhang Nan, Du Yi, Fuyun, Baique, Bu Ji and other generals.
In terms of generals, the losses of the coalition of princes were much smaller than those of the grassland forces. Except for a few individuals, they were basically small fish and shrimps who could barely reach the first-class or even not reach the first-class.
.
Among them, Gao Dejie and Gao Yanping died the most unjustly. Gao Dejie was a fierce general under Wu Sangui and one of the top ten generals. In "The Biography of Rebellious Ministers", when Wu Sangui raised his troops, Gao Dejie took the lead in conquering all of Jiangxi.
He has defeated the Qing Dynasty He Shuo'an and Prince Yue Le twice, so he can be regarded as a relatively capable general.
Gao Yanping, on the other hand, was a peerless general, and he was not bad at the peerless level. He had already emerged during the period when the princes were fighting against Dong, and he had made a name for himself.
However, Tuoba Tao chose exactly the direction where Zhao Kuangyin was to break out. When Gao Dejie led his troops to block Tiefutu, he was directly run over by Tiefutu's heavy cavalry, regardless of casualties in their eagerness to break through.
Similarly, when Gao Yanping led his troops to block the attack, he was directly attacked by the three fierce generals Tuoba Lang Sima, Mountain Lion Tuo, and Tuo Jinlong.
No matter which one of these three people, Gao Yanping is no match, let alone these three people taking action together.
Although during the retreat, Tuobalang Sima, the strongest among the three generals, was injured to a certain extent in order to get rid of Xiang Yu, and also caught up with the peerless turtle, but when the three of them joined forces, Gao Yanping still
He didn't even hold on for three moves before he was killed by the mountain lion and camel with a single blow.
