Chapter 46: Wang Yuan is about to explode
Ying Xuanze ordered the Huben Army to clean up the battlefield, and all useful food and supplies in Jubei City had to be moved back to Gaoliu City.
Of course he still left half for Wang Yuan. After all, he was the one who contributed the most this time. If he didn't leave any, Wang Yuan would probably fight him to the death.
At this time, Wang Yuan was counting his own casualties at the edge of the battlefield. His troops were first attacked twice, and then faced the main force of Jubei City.
A total of 50,000 troops were brought, more than 10,000 were killed in the battle, more than 3,000 were seriously injured, and more than 20,000 others were injured.
It can be said that the loss was quite heavy, which made him extremely angry.
He didn't have to fight this battle. He had always kept his distance from these bandits in Jubei City. If Ying Xuanze hadn't insisted on fighting, he would probably be sleeping with the beauty in his mansion right now.
But at this point, even if he was angry, he had to swallow it. He could only say that he underestimated Ying Xuanze at the beginning and did not expect that this guy could rebuild the Tiger Army in such a short time.
He never expected that Ying Xuanze would use him to suppress the bandits and let him take the lead, but he had no choice but to swallow this loss...
Thinking of this, Wang Yuan's eyes were full of resentment, and he couldn't do anything to Ying Xuanze.
But this doesn’t mean that Wang Yuan will really swallow this anger!
He immediately called a personal soldier and asked someone to prepare paper and pen. After he finished writing a secret letter, he asked the personal soldier to rush to the capital immediately...
Not long after the personal soldiers left, Ying Xuanze came with Zhang Fei and Zhang Liang to look for them.
Wang Yuan restrained his gaze when he saw him coming, then he clasped his fists respectfully and said, "Congratulations, Lord Zhenxi Hou!"
Ying Xuanze nodded slightly, glanced at Wang Yuan in front of him and the army behind him, and then smiled faintly:
"This battle was won thanks to City Lord Wang Yuan, and I can see that your subordinates all hate these bandits."
"Haha, if you could show the same momentum as today on normal days, the bandit problem in Yingchuan wouldn't be so serious. In the end, I would have to clean up your mess!"
"Fortunately, the bandit problem has been eliminated and the people are now safe. Otherwise, if you let it go, your position as city lord would be in jeopardy..."
Ying Xuanze's words were somewhat harsh. Wang Yuan was secretly angry, with a ball of rage rising in his chest.
He suppressed his anger, lowered his head, and said in a deep voice: "My Lord, I will remember what you have taught me and will never do it again!"
Ying Xuanze nodded slightly, but his eyes narrowed slightly the next second. He noticed that Wang Yuan's facial muscles twitched slightly, and suddenly understood something.
He sneered in his heart. He could guess what Wang Yuan was thinking and what he wanted to do, so he had already thought of a way to deal with it.
"Okay, then take your men back."
"However, although the two major bandit threats in Yingchuan and Jubei City have been eliminated, there are still some bandits in Xiliang who need to be eliminated, and to the north of Jubei City there is also the Beihu tribe who are eyeing us covetously..."
"You and I still have a heavy task to do. Don't slack off after you return. Do you understand?"
Wang Yuan was so angry that his teeth itched. You want me to do something? Are you really treating him like a lackey?
Moreover, he suffered such a huge loss this time, why didn't this Ying guy show any appreciation? There are so many food and supplies in Jubei City, shouldn't they share some of them?
Thinking of this, Wang Yuan calmed down and asked in a deep voice: "My Lord, what do you think of the supplies and food collected from Jubei City..."
Ying Xuanze immediately showed an expression of "Oh! Right", he smiled faintly and nodded and said:
"Thank God City Lord Wang Yuan reminded me. Indeed, you have contributed so much this time, and you deserve those things."
Wang Yuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and he actually felt a little surprised at Ying Xuanze's sudden generosity.
It seems that the Marquis of Zhenxi is still afraid of his power, otherwise he would not have handed over the results of the battle so decisively.
Thinking of this, Wang Yuan laughed happily twice, and then asked people to prepare to go into the city to move things.
"but......."
Shortly after Wang Yuan gave the order, Ying Xuanze's voice sounded again.
"These supplies were looted from the people by the bandits in Jubei City. The people have suffered terribly over the years. I was just wondering, should we return these things to the people?"
After hearing this, Wang Yuan's body suddenly stiffened, and Ying Xuanze also walked over and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, sir. I will return the portion I deserve to the people. As for your portion, in addition to returning it to the people, don't forget to pay some money out of your own pocket to comfort the soldiers who died in the battle."
"The people's hearts must be appeased, and the army's morale must also be stabilized!" Ying Xuanze patted Wang Yuan's shoulders twice, then took his men away.
Wang Yuan looked at Ying Xuanze's departing back, his face was terribly gloomy and he felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger.
Ying Xuanze said this in front of so many of his subordinates, it was simply killing people and destroying their hearts!
Since he became the lord of Longxi City and the master of Xiliang, he has never suffered such a loss!
He clenched his teeth, clenched his fists, and his eyes were full of resentment.
"If I can't deal with you, then there will be someone who can! Just wait, Marquis Zhenxi! There will be a time when you will kneel down and beg for mercy!"
Wang Yuan muttered to himself, and then, filled with anger, he planned to rush back to Longxi City with the remaining subordinates.
"Sir? We don't want the results of the battle in Jubei City... anymore?" A general under Wang Yuan asked in a low voice.
Wang Yuan roared, "What do you want? Didn't you hear what Lord Zhenxihou said? Return everything to the people!"
"If you can't get any, then why come? You're just adding burden to yourself!"
Thinking about how he paid such a huge price but got nothing in return, he would be furious if he stayed here any longer.
"Those brothers who died in the battle..." The general hesitated for a while and continued to ask in a low voice.
"Appease! We must appease them!" Wang Yuan clenched his fists, "None of my soldiers can suffer any injustice!"
The general was overjoyed when he heard this. Wang Yuan was known to be stingy. It seemed that the words of the Marquis of Zhenxi were really useful, and even Wang Yuan had to obey.
On the other side, Zhang Liang and Zhang Fei were leading people to count the supplies in Jubei City. When Ying Xuanze saw the happy expressions on their faces, he knew how lucrative the situation was here.
"Brother, we're going to make a fortune this time! In addition to hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain, there are also large amounts of gold, silver and jewelry!" Zhang Fei happily ran to Ying Xuanze and said loudly.
"Except for returning the food to the nearby people, the rest of the jewelry and supplies will be moved back to Gaoliu City. Those that cannot be taken away will be burned." Ying Xuanze said with a smile.
Zhang Fei nodded, then he looked behind Ying Xuanze in surprise and asked, "Huh? Didn't Wang Yuan bring anyone to share the spoils of war?"
"Haha, you feel like you'll have to spit it out anyway, so why not come?"
Ying Xuanze waved his hand: "What a pity! If he knew there were so many gold, silver and jewels here, I wonder if he would be so angry that he would vomit blood?"
