Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 205: Two hundred casualties for fifty thousand casualties, the advantage lies with Da Qin! This battle is won!

After Touman finished blaming himself, he turned to look at the quartermaster beside him.

"What were the cavalry casualties?"

When the quartermaster heard Touman's words, there was a hint of fear on his face, and he quickly said:

"Great Chanyu!"

"At the end of this battle, I took a quick look and found that more than half of the cavalry casualties and more than half of the horse casualties were lost."

"We haven't had time to make statistics on weapons, food and fodder, but we estimate that the number is also over half."

The quartermaster told Touman the results of his statistics.

The expressions of the other lieutenants changed greatly when they heard the quartermaster's words. They knew that the army had suffered heavy casualties.

I didn't expect the casualties to be so serious. More than half of the cavalry, horses and other items were killed.

This was their first such disastrous defeat. This battle not only weakened their strength but also damaged their morale.

In the past, the Huns' cavalry had been invincible, but this defeat caused a serious loss of morale.

Touman's face turned ugly when he heard the quartermaster's words. He was the leader of the army.

This time, under his personal leadership, more than half of his cavalry and war horses suffered casualties. This was his shame.

Touman clenched his fists, looked at the lieutenants and quartermasters beside him and said, "What you have to do during this period is to appease the soldiers under your command."

"The king of Japan will not attack the cities on the border of Daqin these days. He will wait until morale recovers before taking revenge."

Touman looked at his lieutenants and issued military orders.

His soldiers were very militant, but this defeat forced him to stop fighting here.

Touman must think carefully about countermeasures next, and he must win the next battle.

"As ordered!"

Several lieutenants were shocked when they heard Touman's words. Today's battle made them also feel fear.

They didn't want to fight Da Qin's cavalry again now, but fortunately Touman didn't mobilize his troops again to prepare for battle.

This gave them time to breathe and comfort the soldiers, preparing for the subsequent war.

"One more thing, send someone to deliver the letter to the cooperating people in Daqin."

"Ask him to write a letter about the three-piece harness. I want to know all the information about the three-piece harness."

Touman looked at the quartermaster beside him and gave another order.

He lost this battle to the three-piece harness, if he didn't figure this out.

When he faces the Qin cavalry in the future, he will feel very uneasy.

"As ordered!"

Daqin border!

On the wall, Meng Fang put down the drumstick in his hand, and came to Meng Tian's side covered in sweat.

"Ha ha!"

"Brother, this battle was a great one!"

"The Xiongnu cavalry fled in embarrassment, and our Great Qin cavalry chased them behind. It was so exciting."

After Meng Fang finished speaking, there was excitement on his face.

He was beating the war drum just now, but his eyes were looking at the army outside the city.

Seeing the Xiongnu cavalry being killed by the Qin cavalry, Meng Fang was so excited that he wished he could go and fight the enemy in person.

The other soldiers on the city wall also looked excited when they heard Meng Fang's words.

After defending the border for so long, this was the first time they saw the Huns cavalry being so defeated by the Qin cavalry chasing them all the way.

Meng Tian also had a look of excitement on his face when he heard Meng Fang's words and clenched his fists tightly. Before the battle started, he had already thought that his cavalry would win.

But Meng Tian did not expect such a great victory. The Huns cavalry had no intention of fighting and only wanted to escape.

"Tap Tap!"

Suddenly, noisy horse hoofbeats were heard outside the city, and Meng Tianmengfang and other soldiers looked forward.

Gan Chong and other lieutenants were at the forefront holding spears and riding horses, and behind him were the cavalry army.

Everyone's face was full of high fighting spirit, and the soldiers on the city wall looked excited when they saw this scene:
"Big victory!"

"Big victory!"

"Big victory!"

The soldiers on the wall raised their weapons and shouted loudly. The whole city was filled with the shouts of soldiers, and Meng Tianmengfang was very excited when he saw the army returning in triumph.

"Open the door!"

"Meng Fang, come with me to the city gate to greet the heroes!"

Meng Tian said as he turned around and walked down the city wall. Meng Fang put on his coat and followed Meng Tian's pace.

Gan Chong stopped his war horses at the gate of the city, and other lieutenants and soldiers also stopped.

"Squeak!"

The city gate slowly opened, and Meng Tian and Meng Fang walked out of the city gate with smiles on their faces.

Gan Chong saw excitement on his face when he saw General Meng Tian walking out of the city gate in person.

Not only Meng Tian but also his brother Meng Fang also came with Meng Tian. Although Meng Fang did not have a military position on the border.

But Meng Fang was personally sent by His Majesty, and Meng Fang could also be said to represent His Majesty.

Such an honor made Gan Chong very excited. Several lieutenants and the cavalry army behind Gan Chong were equally excited.

It is a high honor to be greeted personally by the general and the ministers sent by His Majesty.

"General, Lord Meng!"

Gan Chong quickly got off his horse and watched the two men salute.

The other lieutenants and cavalrymen dismounted one after another and saluted the two like Gan Chong.

"In today's battle, you killed the Huns so much that they threw away their armor and fled in disgrace."

"This is a great victory, and I, the general, will definitely ask His Majesty to take credit for you."

Meng Tian helped Gan Chong up and watched everyone make promises.

"Brothers, you have made great achievements. When I return to Xianyang City, I will fully report this great victory to Your Majesty in the Qilin Palace."

"I believe that your Majesty and other ministers will be very happy when they hear about the victory at the border."

After Meng Tian finished speaking, Meng Fang also made a promise.

Gan Chong and others had excitement on their faces when they heard what the brothers Meng Tian and Meng Fang said.

General Meng Tian has always kept his word, and he is His Majesty's most trusted general.

Since General Meng Tian wants to ask for credit from His Majesty for them, they will definitely receive His Majesty's reward.

Meng Fang's promise also made them excited, and they could let His Majesty and other ministers know about their victory in Qilin Hall.

This is also an honor, and Gan Chong and other soldiers are very excited.

"Thank you, general, thank you, sir!"

Gan Chong and others looked at Meng Tian and Meng Fang and bowed their hands.

"What were the casualties of your army in this battle with Gan Chong?"

Meng Tian looked at Gan Chong and asked about the situation of the army.

Gan Chong's face became serious, he looked at Meng Tian and said, "General."

"The last general led his army and collided with the Xiongnu army. The Xiongnu army had no intention of fighting and only wanted to escape."

"The general's army suffered less than 200 casualties!"

Gan Chong looked at Meng Tian and told the casualties.

Meng Tian nodded slightly when he heard Gan Chong's words, "It's a pity that some brothers were injured or killed."

"As before, we need to receive good treatment and compensate these brothers and their families."

"As ordered!"

Gan Chong looked at Meng Tian with admiration on his face.

Part of the reason why Meng Tian's army is so brave is that Meng Tian never lets his soldiers feel cold.

Whether they were injured or sacrificed soldiers, Meng Tian would never treat them and their families badly.

Many generals cannot do this, which is why Meng Tian is deeply admired by the soldiers.

Gan Chong suddenly looked at Meng Tian with a hint of excitement on his face and said:
"General, at the end of this battle, I will lead my soldiers to kill the Huns, causing the Huns cavalry to flee in panic."

"The general has sent people to count the casualties of the Huns' cavalry. In this battle, the Huns' cavalry suffered at least 50,000 casualties."

"Since the end of the war came to the border to fight against the Huns, this is the first time that the Huns were so defeated."

Gan Chong looked at Meng Tian with excitement on his face.
