Guan Shouchanghe said,

“The Longxiang Army did indeed perform a great deed this time, especially when they first entered the battlefield and had not yet completed the encirclement, they were attacked from both sides by the Sichuan Army’s rear army and the Qin Army.

In the tough battle with Xiao Lei this morning, it was the Longxiang Army that led the charge.

Our Tiger Army suffered 20,000 casualties this time.

Twenty thousand, eighteen thousand, twenty-five thousand, twenty thousand.

Adding them together, there are more than 80,000 people.

We annihilated 400,000 enemy troops and inflicted more than 80,000 casualties, which can be considered a great victory.

But the lost troops also need to be replenished.

Let’s put it this way. During this period of time, we should work harder on the thoughts of the Sichuan Army, transform them, and then recruit them into various armies.

As for the court, let me write the battle report. There is no need for new recruits from the court. Just let them transport the artillery shells and divine thunder. I will take responsibility.

As for food and military equipment, we have Qin as our support and can replenish them nearby.

These new recruits will be added to our legion, and the rest will be used as auxiliary troops."

"Okay, then you write two battle reports, one for the prince and one for the emperor."

"Okay, send it over quickly over 800 miles."

Guan Shouchang took a sip of wine and said,

"After returning, tell each army to count their merits. We will first reward the soldiers. The Qin army has just surrendered, so giving them more money will motivate them to return. Those who died in battle will also receive compensation.

We will advance the money first and distribute it. After the military pay and rewards from the court arrive, we will deposit it into the military account office.

It will be distributed in two days, sooner rather than later."

Su Wuan nodded and said,

"Brother Guan, do we need to go and help the prince on the battlefield? Should we just rest for a while?

Not doing anything anymore?"

"Your Majesty, both kings are here, with an army of 800,000. Can't they defeat the 800,000-strong Qian-Chu coalition?

If the prince needs help, he will ask.

We will rest for a while, recharge our batteries, and wait for orders. We will march south whenever we are told to do so and attack Sichuan.

The New Year is coming soon, at least we should let everyone enjoy the New Year peacefully, and then we can fight after the New Year."

This war to destroy Qin was the first war to destroy a country led by Guan Shouchang himself. Although he was only the commander of the Weihu Army, he was also the commander-in-chief of the three armies of this western army.

With 300,000 troops, he annihilated 500,000 Qin troops at Yulei Pass, annihilated more than 100,000 local troops along the way, defeated 300,000 Qin troops, and wiped out 400,000 Sichuan troops.

The number of enemy troops he destroyed was as high as more than 1.3 million!

Up to now, there are 350,000 people left, and 450,000 people are left.

This battle record was recorded in history books. When future generations read it, they may find it too unbelievable and think that the history books are fake.

But this is the record Guan Shouchang has achieved.

Defeating the many with the few, defeating the strong with the weak, every battle record was used as a typical battle to teach later students in the Imperial College in Shengjing.

Everyone congratulated Guan Shouchang on his great contribution. However, Guan Shouchang, who was always arrogant, said seriously,

“This is not my credit. Without the prince’s recognition, I, Guan Shouchang, would still be a low-class street juggler.

If the prince had not set the rule of not killing prisoners, we would not have been able to recruit so many troops.

Without the prince's persuasion for Chen Qing to surrender, Chen Qing would not have been able to come up with the idea of ​​burning his boats and attacking Xianyang.

Without the prince's advance planning and recruiting of Bai Wuan, the Dragon Sovereign Army would not have been able to descend from the sky and defeat the enemy.

It can be said that our successive victories were all thanks to the prince’s visit to Tianshui County.

Think about it, if the prince had not come that time, Bai Wuan would not have been transferred away from Yulei Pass. With Bai Wuan leading 500,000 people to guard the pass, we would not have been able to break in.

Even if they won by chance, they would suffer heavy losses and would be unable to move south.

All of this was planned by the prince.

Without him, I, Guan Shou, am nothing.

Moreover, this war to annihilate the country was won because of everyone's joint efforts. Without you, could I, Guan, win it alone?

I will write down the details of each battle, including who made the plans and how the battle was fought, and report them to the prince.

Everyone, you all deserve credit!"

Su Wuan smiled and said,

"Yes, it's all thanks to them. Come, let's raise our glasses together and celebrate Dayan's victory!"

"cheers!"

After eating and drinking, everyone dispersed to do their work.

The next day, Zhao Biao sent out 10,000 white horse soldiers, escorting hundreds of horse-drawn carriages, and galloped to Shengjing.

On the carriage were a lot of gold and silver, antique jades, priceless jewels, as well as the Qin princes and nobles, the emperor and the royal family, concubines and princesses, etc., all of whom were escorted to Shengjing.

In addition, Guan Shouchang also wrote two detailed battle reports, which were sent urgently over 800 miles to Shengjing and Luoyang respectively.

After sending the battle report, Guan Shouchang ordered people to convey the Qin Emperor's intention to surrender the entire country to all parts of the Qin State, and required all counties and prefectures to change their flags and submit to Dayan.

If anyone disobeys, the Yan army will march on the border and destroy him to ashes!

The horse, which could run for 800 li at a time, galloped towards the east at full speed.

The horse galloped along the flat road north of the Qinling Mountains, crossed the mountains, entered the territory of the former Wei State, and then followed the official road south of the Luo River. After running for several days, it finally arrived in Luoyang.

The Yan army here has not yet moved south and is also resting.

After the officials sent by the court arrived, Shen Changgong no longer took care of government affairs and usually stayed in the military camp during the day.

When the urgent battle report arrived from eight hundred miles away, Shen Changgong, King Nan and others were in the commander's tent, holding a meeting while looking at the map in front of them.

"Report! Report to the Second King, the battle report has arrived urgently from eight hundred miles west!"

When they heard the urgent message of 800 miles, everyone's heart skipped a beat. Shen Changgong immediately stood up, took it, and quickly opened it to take a look.

After seeing the contents, Shen Changgong's frown gradually relaxed, and then he became delighted. In the end, he even burst into laughter.

"The West won? Look how happy you are."

The Southern King rolled his eyes and said.

Shen Changgong handed the battle report to Gongsun Wan'er and said,

"read."

Gongsun Wan'er immediately recited the letter again, and by the end, she couldn't help laughing out loud.

When everyone heard Guan Shouchang's series of achievements, they were all amazed.

Yuhuatian sighed,

"General Guan is indeed worthy of being recognized by the prince as a renowned commander. This string of victories truly qualifies him as invincible."

The Southern King also nodded and said,

"Lao Guan is a formidable figure. With only 350,000 men, he annihilated an army of over 1.3 million. He single-handedly destroyed the powerful Qin State. No one in the world can match him."

All the generals praised Guan Shouchang.

Shen Changgong smiled and said to Yu Ziling,

"Yu Shuai, you should also give me some compliments."

Yu Ziling was about to speak when she suddenly frowned and felt a strong sense of nausea and vomiting.

"vomit……"

Shen Changgong was shocked.

"What's wrong? Did the battle between Lao Guan and you feel so sick?"
