Chapter 236 Heavy casualties (supplement 1/6)(2/2)

He glanced at the gathered generals. Everyone was fighting bloody battles and had injuries more or less on their bodies.

He saw that there were knife marks on Zang Ba's face, and one of his eyes was bloody.

Probably aware of Chu Tian's gaze, Zang Ba said indifferently: "Isn't it just that I lost an eye? I'm lucky to be alive this time!"

Sun Guan, who was also a Taishan thief, limped and was hit by several arrows but survived. As a military general, his vitality was much stronger than that of a civil servant. In addition, Sun Guan was an extremely tenacious military general, so he survived.

Hua Xiong was grinning, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He was wearing heavy armor of heavy cavalry and had high defense, but he was hammered by Xuzhou soldiers and suffered serious injuries.

Zhao Yun and Xue Rengui were injured, and Li Guang was no exception.

The only general who was not injured was Zhou Yafu.

As the backbone of the Langya Kingdom in the Battle of Xuzhou, Zhou Yafu could not put himself in danger.

Any strong general can continue to fight even if he is killed, but once Zhou Yafu is killed, no one can hold back Le Yi's main infantry force, and there is no suspense in this battle.

Le Yi also would not let himself have the possibility of being shot, so even after winning, the Langya Kingdom army would not be able to catch Le Yi.

The importance of the coach is second only to the lord. Sometimes, the lord is even the coach.

However, Zhou Yafu, who was not injured, was now feeling very uncomfortable. The continuous command and high pressure exhausted his energy. He kept gently tapping his temples to relieve his weakness.

Fang Xuanling roughly calculated the losses: "The main force of this battle was 60,000, and the reinforcements were 11,000. Less than 40,000 survived. The greatest losses were the cavalry, with only 4,000 remaining. The remaining Xiliang cavalry

Three hundred people..."

In a battle, all the generals were injured and their strength was reduced by half. Chutian had never suffered such a heavy loss.

The thousand Xiliang cavalry that Chu Tian regarded as treasures were targeted by Le Yi and were besieged by a steady stream of infantry, leaving only three hundred.

"The armor of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry can still be reused, but many Liangzhou horses were killed in battle. We need to purchase Liangzhou horses used by the heavy cavalry from Liangzhou in order to reorganize the Xiliang Iron Cavalry."

Chu Tian couldn't help but feel a headache when he thought of recruiting 700 more Xiliang cavalry, which would cost at least 100,000 taels of silver.

Together with other losses, it is equivalent to losing hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

"The losses can be made up with the spoils of war. In addition to the spoils of war on the battlefield, the properties of the other four counties are our spoils of war!"

After Chu Tian's tragic victory, the first thing he considered was how to make up for the losses.

The losses caused by war must also be compensated by means of war.

"Contact Mi Zhu and Mi Fang and ask them to lead their troops to join us."

In addition to relying on plundering trophies to obtain supplies, Chutian also relied on all possible forces, including Mi Zhu and Mi Fang who were looting villages and towns in Qu County, East China Sea at this time.

The Mi family's financial resources can help Chutian recover quickly.

Without money and food, it will take a lot of time to regain strength.

"Fortunately, no generals were killed... Where are Miss Xia and Li Xiuning?"

Chu Tian counted the heroes this time, but the two people who led the women's army to turn the tide were not there.

Fang Xuanling replied: "They are still capturing prisoners. Only by using prisoners to supplement their strength can they restore the size of the legion as soon as possible."

"Collect all the prisoners and take them south with the army to attack Tancheng."

Chu Tian thought that this was indeed the case.

The main force of the Langya Kingdom and the defenders of Xia City were less than 40,000. With this small force, it was difficult to besiege Tan City, and the prisoners of the Xuzhou coalition could only be used as cannon fodder to attack Tan City.

The Detachment of Women captured about four to five thousand prisoners alive and returned to the camp. The two generals, Li Xiuning and Xia Liang, were still alive.

Chu Tian personally brought people to greet him: "You have made great achievements in this battle. I will have your achievements recorded one by one, and each of you will be rewarded in the future."

"Lord Lord..."
