Peerless Tang Sect: I have both medicine and poison

Chapter 161 Digestion

The Xiang family mansion has now been completely reduced to the garrison of the Southern Army.

"The three groups of spies from several nearby cities have all been dealt with," reported the scout battalion commander Hui.

This was the third day after the war. Dugu Yin did not continue to advance, but directly ordered the whole army to rest and stay in Iron Armored City for a while.

Tens of thousands of captives have not been resolved, and it is impossible to bury them all on the spot.There is also a large amount of supplies in the city lord's mansion, which cannot be filled with storage soul guides.Not only that, the soldiers of the army who captured the city for the first time were adapting, so Dugu Yin directly slowed down the speed of advancing.

With the passing of time, apart from Carlos City, Iron Armored City should be the only city that has fallen in the past thousand years.The common people were uneasy, and the soldiers were at a loss.

It was Dugu Yin who issued the order that all soldiers live in the school grounds, except for routine duty, they are not allowed to enter the city at will, and soldiers entering the city are not allowed to disturb the people.At the same time, a charity office was set up to help the families who were destroyed during the street battle, and the records were recorded and presented to Duguyin.

Soon, the grudges in the hearts of the people began to digest and accepted the soldiers of the Southern Army.

Among these things, the Golden Soul Coins played a major role. Not only did the soldiers who participated in the battle receive at least ten Golden Soul Coins, but the ruined families also received subsidies from the Southern Legion.

Everyone is unbelievable, the war is ruthless, not to mention that the reason for their family's ruin is not entirely due to the southern soldiers. I didn't expect to receive subsidies in this way. If it is the Xiang family, this is absolutely impossible.

Of course, after time passed, other cities also felt that something was wrong, why the Xiang family hadn't contacted them for so long, so they spied on Iron Armored City one after another.

It's still like a mud cow entering the sea, the spies went out, but the news didn't come back, which is why Xiang Dao couldn't wait for the reinforcements.

The reinforcements who rushed over were all waiting for news from their spies on the road, so they naturally didn't dare to act rashly, so they delayed and delayed until now Iron Armored City was directly shattered.

"Very good." Dugu Yin was extremely satisfied. After this battle, these soldiers can be said to have been completely reborn.

"It's still the marshal who predicted the enemy's prophet. Without the marshal, how could we have achieved such a record." The commander of the scout battalion expressed emotion.

"Stop flattering me here. Are there any remaining soldiers in the city? Are there any remnants of the Xiang family? You, the commander of the scout battalion, will have to watch over all of this."

At this moment, Chu Yu, who was in charge of the resettlement of the city and the deployment of the army, came in, "Marshal, according to preliminary statistics, this street battle damaged a total of 357 houses, twelve streets, and the most serious one, half a street collapsed. Nearly a thousand people were affected, and most of them went to the almshouse to receive subsidies, which is more than enough to continue living.”

"That's okay, thanks to Lone Bamboo Sword and the others holding back most of Iron Armored City's troops." Hearing these loss figures, Dugu Yin breathed a sigh of relief, most of Iron Armored City was preserved.

"Speaking of Lone Bamboo Sword, Marshal, what will happen to those prisoners?" Chu Yu frowned.If he was a prisoner of the Star Luo Empire, he would naturally wait for the Star Luo Empire to send someone to redeem him after he was captured.

This is also the tacit understanding between the two parties in the war. Fighting is allowed, but the captives captured alive cannot be abused. The two parties will exchange money for it.Of course, this kind of tacit understanding is mostly limited to soul masters.

But it's different now. If these people go back, it's against themselves.Being able to capture them so quickly this time doesn't mean it's so easy when the two armies face each other.

Even if their soul guides are more advanced and more powerful, facing the same huge army, it is impossible to do without a trace of loss.

"According to the inquiring information, they all belong to the First Regular Army of the Northern Legion, and belong to Iron Armored Douluo's own armed forces. There are many soul masters among them. According to the current statistics, there are more than 1000 people."

The northern legion is different from the southern legion. They don't have the establishment of the central army, and basically neither do other empires. Most of them are configured with a soul master and a few ordinary soldiers. Legions composed of all soul masters are very rare.

The first regular army has more than 2000 people, and the soul masters are probably between [-] and [-]. In order to guard them, the central army brought out by Dugu Yin was directly divided into half to guard them.

"Prescribe all the medicines, escort them to the Sunset Forest, and hand them over to Marshal Dugu Ren to take care of them." Dugu Yin seemed to have expected it, "Their food will be halved, and they will be asked to farm in the Sunset Forest, and we will judge according to their performance."

Chu Yu nodded, thinking silently at the same time.

It is good to take care of Sunset Forest. Geographically speaking, it is located near the center of the empire; militaryly speaking, it has a titled Douluo with tens of thousands of soldiers.

The most important thing is that it is the closest to here, and they can take this group of people back in two days by traveling fast all the way, and then they won't have to worry about so many burdens.

"Marshal, there is one more thing. Many enemy generals are willing to surrender." Chu Yu, who had just turned around, suddenly remembered, and then turned to report to Dugu Yinhui, who was looking down at the sand table.

The main reason is that many of these generals are civilians with the same background as him, who were only oppressed by the power before, and had to surrender under the majesty of Iron Armored Douluo.

Dugu Yin looked at the sand table without turning back and said, "I don't accept it, let's go to Sunset Forest to reform it first."

"Marshal, these people are not direct descendants of Iron Armored Douluo, most of them are from the same background as me, and they have to serve under Iron Armored Douluo's command only for the sake of their future." Chu Yu felt that he could fight for it again, "We are employing people No matter how unbearable these generals are, they have experienced military life and have many years of experience in leading the army."

Dugu Yin raised his head from the sand table, "Marshal Chu Yu, first of all, you must understand that our military philosophy is completely different from that of the Northern Army, and their generals have to learn a lot when they come to us. Secondly, can you guarantee that they are not surrendering? ? Guarantee that the soldiers who have just won the battle will not be angry when they see their defeated soldiers riding on their heads?"

Chu Yu was surprised, yes, he didn't think about these things, he was completely in his old way of thinking, subduing generals was recorded in military books, and he thought that he could also follow the example of the sages.

Immediately, he was ashamed, his whole old face turned red, he really made these generals ride on the soldiers' heads, he was afraid that he was the first one who mutinied and was killed.

Dugu Yin slowed down his tone, "However, since you admire him so much, I can go and see for myself. If there is really a talent available, then it's time to cultivate it."

Chu Yu hurriedly looked at Dugu Yin gratefully, it turns out that I have such an important position in the Marshal's heart, and I can do such a thing for him, then he must be the first to swear allegiance to the death.
