When Arthur completed the third penetration, Liang's army was divided into several pieces. Under the joint attack of the women's army, they finally lost their resistance.
"Report...to General Liya, our army was victorious in this battle. Li Yuan only led nearly a hundred remaining cavalry to escape westward."
After hearing the report, Arthur let out a long breath, returned the sword to its sheath, and then said with a serious face: "Clean the battlefield immediately."
"promise."
At this time, Hua Mulan and other generals came on horseback with happy faces. Seeing this, Arthur smiled and said: "Everyone, Liya has lived up to the commander's trust. The Detachment of Women has won this battle."
"Congratulations, general, congratulations, general." All the female generals congratulated in unison.
Some of these female generals were originally unconvinced by Arthur, believing that Arthur, as a foreign woman, was not suitable to serve as a general. However, after this battle, all the female generals were convinced by Arthur.
Arthur's command in this battle was simply perfect. He led the Liang army into a trap step by step. In the end, with 4,500 infantry and 500 cavalry, he almost wiped out 3,000 Xiliang cavalry.
Such an amazing record is rare even in the Ace Battalion, not to mention that this time it was all fought by the Women's Detachment of Women, and this battle is enough to make the Detachment of Women famous throughout the world.
The Detachment of Women under the leadership of Arthur won the first tough battle since its establishment. Although the casualty report has not yet been calculated, it is obvious that the losses of the Detachment of Detachment were not large, which naturally made the women sincerely convinced of Arthur.
"Sister Mu did not misjudge the person." All the female generals thought in their hearts.
Not long after the battle on the Detachment's side, Yu Jin finally arrived "in time" with his 8,000-strong army. He was ordered by Zhang Liao to carry out the last step of the plan.
But when he saw that the battle was over and the Detachment of Women had defeated three thousand Xiliang cavalry, Yu Jin was stunned and couldn't believe it was true.
In order to eliminate Li Yuan's 3,000 cavalry, Nanxiang County mobilized nearly 30,000 troops, spending a lot of manpower and material resources, but they repeatedly escaped because there was no cavalry to restrain them.
Nowadays, the Detachment of Women, which only has 5,000 people, has achieved something that even the 30,000 Nanxiang troops have not been able to do. This also makes Yu Jin feel shocked and ashamed.
The combat power of this Detachment of Women must be too strong. It would be great to have Mrs. Mu as a backer. Yu Jin thought sourly in his heart. Looking at the excellent preparations of the Detachment of Women, he felt extremely envious.
The battle was over, and Yu Jin, who came late, could only help clean up the battlefield.
"General, although our army has a great victory over the Liang army in this battle, it is still somewhat imperfect if we let the big fish like Li Yuan escape."
Yang Jiumei's eyes were full of excitement: "I will ask for orders to hunt down Li Yuan."
"How can such a good thing be omitted from me? I will go too." Hu Sanniang said with a smile.
"Then I want to go too..." All the female generals asked one after another.
"Don't worry, everyone, the encirclement formed by General Zhang Liao has been closed. Where can Li Yuan go?"
Arthur waved his hand and said with a smile: "The contribution of our Detachment of Women in this battle has been great enough, so the credit for killing Li Yuan should be given to General Zhang Liao."
"General Liya, why don't you take the credit for bringing me here?" Hu Sanniang asked doubtfully.
When Arthur heard this, he was about to explain, but Liang Hongyu on the side said first: "This time our women's army is a guest army, coming to help General Zhang Liao encircle and suppress Li Yuan, but in the end, it took the credit that should belong to General Zhang Liao.
If we take all the final credit, wouldn't it mean that General Zhang Liao's 20,000-strong army was wasted, and that would be too ugly."
Hu Sanniang laughed nonchalantly and said, "You have thought too much. How can Wen Yuan be so narrow-minded and not blame us for this?"
"Wenyuan Wenyuan, the name is so intimate."
Hua Mulan's eyes flashed with amusement, and she asked with a joking face: "Tell me, Sanniang, how far have you and General Zhang Liao developed?"
When the female generals heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they no longer rushed to hunt down Li Yuan. Instead, they started digging up gossip about Hu Sanniang. Hu Sanniang's face turned red with embarrassment, and he hesitated without telling the key points.
Three women are just a drama, not to mention the Detachment of Women is a group here!
The conversation between the female generals went off the rails, and eventually they got involved in a life-long event. As they talked, they had already compiled preliminary battle reports.
"Report...to General Liya and other generals, the preliminary casualty report has been calculated.
In this battle, our army killed more than 1,500 Liang soldiers and captured more than 1,000 soldiers. The remaining Liang soldiers collapsed and it was only a matter of time before they were captured.
Our army lost nearly four hundred sisters, nearly five hundred were slightly injured, and one hundred were disabled..."
As they talked, the female soldiers who came to report were already crying, and the female generals no longer had the joy they had before, and a sad mood was brewing among them.
Four hundred were killed and a hundred were disabled. The Detachment of Women nearly annihilated three thousand Xiliang cavalry at the cost of only five hundred men.
This achievement is already extremely rare, but why can't the female generals be happy about it.
The generals and soldiers of the Detachment of Women have a superior-subordinate relationship during wartime, but they treat each other as sisters during non-wartime. Their feelings for each other are very deep.
The good sisters who were talking and laughing together yesterday have turned into corpses today, lying there motionless and never to be seen again.
At this thought, most of the female generals burst into tears. Although the rest of the female generals did not cry bitterly, their tears still flowed down unconsciously.
Even though Arthur had long been accustomed to seeing life and death, he still shed two lines of tears unconsciously at this moment, and said with a look of self-blame: "It's all Liya's fault. If Liya could do better,
There wouldn’t have been so many sisters sacrificed.”
Seeing that Arthur had placed all the blame on herself, the female generals naturally felt very sorry for her. Hua Mulan comforted her softly: "Liya, it's not your fault, you have done a good enough job."
"Without Liya, the casualties among the sisters would only be greater." Dong Yuee also consoled her.
The caring words of the female generals made Arthur feel warm in his heart.
"Collect the corpses of all the sisters. I said that I will definitely send them back. Now even the corpses are the same."
Arthur couldn't help but clenched his fists and said with great determination: "For all the sisters who died in the battle, as well as those sisters who are disabled and unable to stay in the army in the future, I will personally ask the lord to fight for the highest possible outcome for them.
pension."
These female warriors are all in their best years. They have not experienced everything that women should experience, but they have lost their lives in a war that should not belong to them. As their commander, Arthur can only do it for them.
