    ,

    Zhu Xieyuan was carried back by more than a thousand rattan armored soldiers. He was not injured, but tired.

    Escape from Fengcheng to Nanchang, a hundred miles, no more, no less, a total of ten rivers, big and small!

    With such a ghostly terrain, if the northern cavalry crossed the river, one can imagine how desperate it would be.

    It is very convenient for those rattan armor soldiers to cross the river, because the rattan armor is waterproof and fireproof, can float in the river, and can be directly converted into a life jacket.

    Zhao Han's weapons workshop is also making rattan armor.

    ?Because Zhao Han's army imitated Qi's army, among which the rattan players were very important.  The reason why it is called the rattan hand is that the shield is a rattan shield, which is lighter and more defensive than a wooden shield, and is exactly the same as the rattan armor.

    There is no rush for this stuff, you have to pick yellow vines in the mountains and soak them repeatedly for more than one year before you can really start making them.

    It was already the next afternoon when Zhu Xieyuan fled back to Nanchang, and he immediately sent an order to gather up the defeated soldiers who had fled back.

    He saw the Jiangxi navy leaning on the shore, and quickly called Zhu Guoxun to ask: "Mr. Zhu, did the rebel navy show up?"

    "There seems to be an anti-thief navy cruising." Zhu Guoxun answered ambiguously.

    Hearing this answer, Zhu Xieyuan was furious, and wanted to draw out Shangfang's sword, and chop Zhu Guoxun to death on the spot with one sword!

    Forcibly suppressing his anger, Zhu Xieyuan warned: "The navy must always be on guard against rebels attacking Nanchang."

    "I would like to obey the military order of the supervisor." Zhu Guoxun knew that he was wrong, and behaved very respectfully.

    Two days later, Zhu Xieyuan only gathered more than 2,000 routs.

    On the other hand, the Datong Army, including the wounded officers and soldiers, only captured more than 7,000 prisoners.

    As for the remaining 20,000 officers and soldiers, of course not all of them died.  Most of them fled back to their hometowns directly, unwilling to fight for the imperial court again. Even if they were forcibly conscripted into the army in the future, they would definitely be ready to run away anytime and anywhere.

    "Cough cough cough cough!"

    In the Governor's Mansion, Zhu Xieyuan hid himself and coughed. He dared not let others know that he was sick.

    An old man in his seventies was carried across ten rivers, and it was no wonder he was so soaked in sun and sun that he couldn't get sick.  Historically, Zhu Xieyuan would have died of illness in Guizhou in two years, but now he just fell ill in another place

    Hu Dinggui slept for half a day and one night. Due to a leg injury, he stayed on Lion Rock and did not chase the enemy.

    After filling his stomach, Hu Dinggui limped to the barracks with a long gun, "What happened to Lao Chen?"

    The doctor in the army is changing Chen Fugui's dressing: "He has been suffering from fever, whether he can live or not depends entirely on himself."

    The wound on Chen Fugui's abdomen, the intestines can be seen faintly.  Fortunately, the cotton armor blocked the force, and the intestines were not punctured, but the wound infection was very fatal.

    Zhao Han also didn't know much about medical knowledge. For the wounded in the army, he only asked people to prepare highly distilled alcohol in advance, and emphasized that the bandages for dressing wounds must be boiled in boiling water.  As for the others, they can only be handed over to the ancient trauma doctors, but the golden sore medicine has always been effective.

    Hu Dinggui sat in front of Chen Fugui for a while, and went to visit other wounded.

    In the battle of Lion Mountain, although there were only more than 400 casualties, the total number of casualties was more than 1,000.  There were only more than 5,000 people in the entire army, and the casualty rate was as high as 25%.

    "ah!"

    There were screams from the tent next door. Hu Dinggui leaned on his spear and saw the doctor sawing the leg of a wounded man.

    It was a soldier whose calf was bruised by a shell. It was a bruise, but in fact a large piece of flesh was gone.  Although the wound was wiped with alcohol and the golden sore medicine was applied quickly, the hot and humid weather for several days still caused the wound to fester in a large area.  It was horrific, and the calf had to be amputated in order to save her life.

    Hu Dinggui came to the edge of the cliff and silently looked at the fields in the distance.

    "Your leg is injured, don't walk around carelessly." Xiao Zongxian did not know when he came behind him.

    This is Hu Dinggui's old chief, leading them to drag Yang Jiamo's servant.

    Xiao Zongxian was also very unlucky. In the fierce battle on the fourth day, he was injured just after the fight started, and was hit in the back of the head by the stones splashed by the shells.  If he hadn't been wearing a bamboo helmet, he might have died in battle for no apparent reason.

    Hu Dinggui smiled and said: "It's okay, I just scratched a few cuts, and the flesh is not very deep."

    Xiao Zongxian took out a pen and paper: "How many did you kill? How many attacks did you repel?"

    "I don't know." Hu Dinggui shook his head.

    Ordinarily, the military exploits have to be counted every day, but on the fourth day of the fierce battle, the situation was critical and stalemate.  Even if the soldiers were replaced to rest, the missionaries and military judges would not bother them, and it has been delayed until now.

    Xiao Zong was helpless,It is within the tolerance of the government and the gentry¡ªthis tolerance is backed by the force of the Datong Army.

    In just two or three months, the small landlords, self-cultivators, tenants, and domestic slaves will no longer be willing to fight for the government after they have tasted the sweetness.  At that time, Zhu Xieyuan, not to mention conscripting troops in Nanchang Mansion, may not even be able to collect a few stones of food.

    As for the expansion of the territory, it is mainly in southern Jiangxi.

    Now Zhao Han, Pang Chunlai, Li Banghua and others have explored the development routine.

    That is to say, the transfer of experienced assistant officials (county magistrate, master book, etc.) is appointed as the magistrate of the newly occupied land.  Then transfer experienced officials to serve as assistant officials in the newly occupied territory.  The original site will be promoted according to political performance and seniority, so as to make up for the vacancy after being transferred.

    There is no shortage of officials, and the more they are trained, the more they are trained. What is lacking now is official positions!

    After the victory of the Ganzhou War, the city of Ganzhou must be taken, mainly to alleviate the salt shortage and reduce the price of salt.

    Shen Youlong has been unable to stop Guangyan from going north, and Ganzhou has been stuck.  After the occupation of Ganzhou, the cheap and high-quality Guangzhou Salt was continuously imported, which immediately eased Zhao Han's financial difficulties.

    At the same time, Yudu County next to Ganzhou had to be occupied.

    In this way, the saltpeter mine in Ningdu County can be transported down the river from Yudu to Ganzhou, and then from Ganzhou to Ji'an.  In this way, the cost of buying saltpeter ore is greatly reduced, and more gunpowder can be produced in the future.

    Ganzhou City has not yet been won at this time.

    ?After the defeat of Fujian General Chen Tingdui, the 3,000 Fujian soldiers in charge of guarding the city had to release Governor Zou Weilian and asked Zou Weilian to take them to defend Ganzhou.

    (I¡¯ve had diarrhea since morning, try to do three shifts today, if it¡¯s really not possible, I can only do two shifts. ?
