The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

"So what are our losses?"

Hearing Yang Wei's question, the excitement on the captain's face subsided slightly, and he said in a deep voice,

"During the charge, six of our brothers were killed and over thirty were injured. Many of them tripped over the corpses on the ground, sprained their ankles, or broke their arms or legs."

"Also, we've used up a lot of ammunition, almost half of it."

Yang Wei took a deep breath and nodded slowly.

"The dead and wounded brothers will receive preferential compensation according to the regulations!"

"Yes!" the captain responded solemnly.

Yang Wei thought for a moment, looked at the captain who looked a little depressed and said,

"Speaking of which, this battle was caused by the mistakes made by me, the hall master! It was dark, and although we caught the enemy off guard, our vision was also obstructed."

"I will apologize to the Peak Master!"

The captain immediately said anxiously,

"But the Hall Master..."

Yang Wei waved his hand.

"Alright, let's not discuss this further! You can meet with the other captains to deal with the prisoners and the deployment of defenses."

After saying that, he continued to write in the notebook.

Seeing this, the captain of the first team had no choice but to accept the order and leave.

Not long after the captain left, one of his men came to Yang Wei with a few sheets of paper and bowed to report.

"Master, the high-ranking officials we captured have all confessed!"

"This is their confession!"

Yang Wei raised his eyebrows, took the confession and glanced at it, and suddenly his expression became clear.

"I see!"

Then he waved to a subordinate who was carrying a backpack.

The subordinate hurriedly took out something that looked like a special file bag from his bag and handed it over.

Yang Wei put the confession into a bag, sealed it, then waxed it, stamped it with a fire seal, and handed it to one of his men.

"Take a few people with you and ride fast horses to send this thing back to Yangzhou immediately!"

"Yes!"

The subordinate took the briefcase, carefully put it into the backpack behind him, saluted, and left quickly with a few people.

Yang Wei then stood up and breathed a sigh of relief, then took out what he had just written in his notebook and waved again.

A subordinate carrying a bird cage came forward, took out a bamboo tube from his arms and handed it to Yang Wei.

Yang Wei rolled up a few pages of paper, stuffed them into the bamboo tube, sealed it, and instructed him,

"Send a letter to Yangzhou immediately by flying an eagle!"

"Yes!"

The subordinate took the bamboo tube and took out a black eagle with sharp eyes, beak and claws from the cage. After fixing the bamboo tube on one of its feet, he threw it into the air with force.

Yang Wei watched the eagle disappear into the night sky.

After thinking for a while, he waved to the two people beside him and whispered a few words in their ears.

The two men looked at each other and immediately clasped their fists.

"Yes! Hall Master!"

……

Yangzhou, in the prefectural government office at the temporary residence of Qingfengzhai.

The house is brightly lit,

Although it was late at night, Qingfeng Li did not feel sleepy at all.

Standing in front of the map of Jiangnan hanging on the wall, he kept marking something on the map with a ruler.

Xiao Ai stood motionless behind Qingfeng Li.

After gesturing for a while, Qingfeng Li threw the ruler on the table, turned around and looked at Xiao Ai, frowning and slightly worried.

"Xiao Ai, why is it that at this moment, there is still no news?"

"Could it be possible that a few thousand elite soldiers equipped with Type 38 rifles would encounter any danger in dealing with a 20,000-man army equipped with cold weapons?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ai replied without any emotion,

"Please rest assured, Peak Master! Based on sand table calculations and numerous historical battle simulations, our chance of winning is approximately 88%. However, the situation on the scene is changing rapidly, and there are many delays. Please be patient."

Li Qingfeng looked at Xiao Ai, whose expression didn't change at all, and shook his head helplessly.

Although he knew all this, he still couldn't be as calm as the robot Xiao Ai until things were settled, and his heart was always unsettled.
