The Battle of Huaishui ended with the annihilation of the Jin army, and the victorious Han army did not immediately cross the river and continue southward, they still needed to make some necessary statistics, and it would take some time to deal with the aftermath.
Since the Jin army on the north bank of Huaishui was completely annihilated, then from Xie Shi to a single soldier, he did not run away.
Xie Shi continued to resist after seeing the fall of Bagong Mountain, they and the Han army first fought fiercely on the river beach, and then Xu Zheng mobilized a large number of long-range attack troops to eliminate the remnants of the Jin army by more than two percent, Xie Shi and others still wanted to continue to resist, but the soldiers couldn't stand it and began to surrender.
The breakthrough became a bubble, and the troops no longer had the will to fight, Xie Shi was going to kill himself at that time, but was stopped by Xie Shang, who was quick-eyed, and finally all became prisoners.
"In this battle, our army completely annihilated the Jin army across the river."
Tiao You looked in a very good mood, and made a gesture: "Completed the goal of annihilating the elite of the puppet dynasty." ” If it is counted from the approach of the Han army and the start of the war, to the end of Xie Shi's capture, the battle of Huaishui was fought for nearly three months.
The decisive stage was when Xie Shi invited Xu Zhenghui to hunt and calculate, until the Jin army crossed the river to the north and went north to the annihilation of the whole army, and the whole process was eight days.
In this decisive battle, which lasted for eight days, the 50,000 Han troops on the main battlefield of Huaishui lost 2,000 and 7 people, including the disabled and seriously wounded, and lost a total of 3,401 people, which is equivalent to the loss of almost one-tenth of the combat strength.
After statistics, the number of Han troops with first-level merits is 5,700 and 7, which is equivalent to the statistics of light energy to cut so many Jin troops, and more Jin troops were killed by arrows to get all the corpses, rough statistics show that 80,000 Jin troops died directly in battle should be more than 13,000, and the rest became prisoners regardless of whether they were injured or not.
"The battle of Bagong Mountain was led by the Praetorian Guards" Tiao You had to take a look at Xu Zheng, he and most of the people present did not know in advance that the Praetorian Guards would raid Bagong Mountain.
He looked at the battle report in his hand before continuing: "The data reported by the Praetorian Guard is that more than 1,000 heads were captured, and the remaining Jin army only broke through with more than 2,000 people, and the rest all surrendered. ” When the Han State attacked the Cheng Han of the Li clan, a Praetorian Guard suddenly appeared around the capital of Cheng 1, causing Li Shi to surrender without a fight.
Not many people know about this matter, and everyone who knows the news is curious about how the Praetorian Guards appeared around Chengdu 1.
And this time, the Praetorian Guards appeared very suddenly in Bagong Mountain, and they did not show any clues in advance, which has to make people curious.
"So that means that except for the Jin army in Shouchun who are still resisting stubbornly, the puppet dynasty's conquest of the northern shogunate can be regarded as wiped out."
Xu Zheng also knew that the Jin army on Shouchun's side would definitely not last long, after all, the effect caused by the destruction of Xie Shi's main force was definitely not small.
He looked around at the people in the tent, and said in a brisk tone as much as possible: "The elimination of the main force of the puppet dynasty is a blow to them, and you still need to work hard to destroy the puppet dynasty as soon as possible." ” All the generals laughed and responded to the "promise", and it could be seen that everyone felt very relaxed.
The Huaishui battlefield is only one of the battlefields of the Han army's southern invasion, and the original plan to land on the eastern coastline of Yangzhou has also been carried out, so the Han army that invaded the south is to launch a multi-front attack against the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
The Han army that landed and fought from the sea was counted under Xie Ai, and he would be responsible for the early war against Yangzhou, waiting for Xu Zheng, the general of Zhengnan, to lead the army into Yangzhou, and Xie Ai's part would be regarded as a meeting with the main force.
The Huan Wen Division will not participate in the Battle of Yangzhou, and their main direction of attack is the southwest region, so although it is counted under the establishment of the Southern Shogunate, the Huan Wen Division is actually fighting alone.
Xu Zheng, who was busy, did not go to see his defeated general Xie Shi.
As the victor, Xu Zheng didn't have any hatred for Xie Shi, and he wouldn't deliberately abuse Xie An for the sake of his face, but if he wanted to say what kind of treatment he would give Xie Shi, he didn't even think about it.
It was not until Xu Zheng led the army to cross the river that he had time to take a look at the captured Jin army generals, the process was very dull, and after reading it, he asked the troops to escort the Jin army generals including Xie Shi, Xie Shang, Liu Jian, Sun Sui, etc. to Yecheng, where Liu Yan was located, as for how Liu Yan would deal with this group of generals, it was not something Xu Zheng could worry about.
The Han army began to cross the Huaishui, and as Xu Zheng expected, Shouchun, who had been holding out, surrendered after learning the outcome of the battle on the north bank of the Huaishui, so the battle of Huaishui would definitely not happen.
Xu Zheng's headquarters, which crossed the Huaishui River to the south bank, did not have any drag, leaving the necessary troops to sweep the tail of Bagong Mountain, including trying to annihilate the Jin army naval division in Shaobei, most of which were directly marched to Yinling, where Xie An's garrison was located.
It is estimated that the news of the annihilation of Xie Shi's department has not yet reached the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the Jin army that has been drawn up from the rear does not see any signs of panic, they use Dongcheng as their main station, and then establish a defensive line near Dongcheng.
"Who is the king shrine" Xu Zheng did not enter the city after coming to Yinling, but he occupied the big tent of the Chinese army that originally belonged to Xie An.
He was listening to Xie An's report just now, truncated and asked: "It's not Chu Li who is the boss, it's this Wang Niche."
"Wang Gong was promoted to the post of governor of the conquest, and Wang Guzhi and Lu Wei were appointed as deputy governors to preside over the defense of our army."
Xie An later introduced the origins of these people to Xu Zheng, and finally said: "Our army crossed the river from Jiangdu to the south to attack, and Chu Li would only stay in Jiankang to supervise the battle." ” Xu Zheng still has done his homework on the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but he will not know as much as Xie An, who was born in the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
What he learned from Xie An was that Wang Gong was more or less one of the few fierce generals in the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Wang Guzhi and Lu Wei were also top-notch figures among many families.
"The Jin army still doesn't believe in the results of the battle of Huaishui" is concerned about this.
He said with a strange face: "Even if our army arrives later, they still don't believe it" In the Battle of Huaishui, Xie An's younger brothers Xie Wan and Xie Shi were captured successively, and his brother Xie Shang also became a prisoner.
He didn't shy away from asking, and was very depressed when he learned that Xu Zheng had sent someone to escort him to Yecheng, but he didn't say anything.
Regarding the Jin army on the Dongcheng side who did not believe in the outcome of the Huaishui Battle, Xie An did not have a good way, after all, whether it was true or false, the Wang Shrine would strongly stabilize the army's heart.
His opinion was to display the flags of the generals of the Jin army obtained in the Battle of Huaishui.
"That's a good idea."
Tiao You grinned, glanced at Xie An deeply without leaving a trace, turned his head to Xu Zheng and said: "The number of Wang Gong's troops is more than the Jin army in the Battle of Huaishui, we can't be dragged down for a long time, it is best to break the army's heart first." ” Xu Zheng naturally agreed.
As if intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at Xie An after nodding, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
The so-called orders and orders must first have a flag before they can be called, and any regular army establishment will have a flag representing the identity, which is also where the honor of the establishment lies.
Usually the flag is only in the establishment, once the flag is captured, even if the person is still there, the establishment of the unit will be canceled, so it can be seen that the importance of the flag to an army.
The Han army captured a lot of Jin army banners in the battle of Huainan, but there were three military government flags of the regular army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty with 10,000 people, and the remaining 3,000 people were even more, and there were indispensable flags of those private armies, including the handsome banner as the banner of the governor of the northern capital.
The Han army roamed the battlefield with all kinds of captured flags held high, repeatedly shouting that they had completely annihilated Xie Shi's troops.
"It's fake, it's all fake."
Wang Gong stood on top of the city tower, let go of his voice and shouted: "Those banners were made by the puppet Han to shake the morale of the army, and the metropolitan governor is still fighting fiercely and has not been annihilated. ” Speaking of which, the number of Han troops brought to Yinling by Xu Zheng behind him, including the Praetorian Guards, was less than 20,000, and the rest were those who needed to take care of prisoners of war and carry out related aftermath.
Only about 20,000 Han troops came over, and Wang Gong had room to operate, including informing the whole army that Xie Shi was still leading the army to fight.

The soldiers of the Jin army were skeptical, and their general understanding was that if the Han army really won, it would not be just 20,000 people, but it should be hulala pressing over.
Wang Gong was originally a general of the naval division of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but the Yangtze River was occupied by the Han fleet, and the Yangtze River naval division of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty withdrew to several large lakes in the abdomen, and a considerable number of sailors became the army, and he also became one of the land governors.
There are 110,000 Jin troops on this side of Dongcheng, of which 60,000 are the original soldiers of the Yangtze River Naval Division, and the rest of the elements are more mixed, including county soldiers from various states and counties, as well as private soldiers from various families, and Zhuman and Zhuyue who were transferred from the south.
The governor is a military position with relatively high gold content in the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there are two kinds of governors, the governor of conquest and the governor of defense, the governor of conquest is an offensive type, and the governor of defense is a defensive type, and there are various governors on it, such as Xie Shi's type of governor of the northern capital.
Relatively speaking, in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the general of the small court was a military position with low gold content.
Soon, Xu Zheng received feedback again, showing that the role of the captured military flag seemed to be a little low, and in some respects he could see the strength of Wang Gong's control over whether it was right, and it could also reflect that there were very important mistakes on their side.
"There are too few follow-up troops to form a visual impact and psychological deterrence."
Xu Zheng touched his chin and said with a little regret: "If those generals were not escorted to Yecheng, bringing them over for a walk would definitely help." ” The corners of Tiaoyou's eyes twitched a few times, and he sometimes really felt that Xu Zheng was very unreliable.
"In the army of the puppet dynasty, the naval division is stronger than the army."
Xie An recounted a fact: "More than half of Wang Gong's subordinates are sailors and soldiers. ” After the battle of Huaishui, the Han army only rested for two days and then restarted, and after coming to Yinling, it still needs to be repaired to show its combat effectiveness, Xu Zheng looked at Xie An and ordered: "Tomorrow your troops will attack the city." ” Xie An stood up and responded: "No" The overall number of Han troops on the Yin Tomb side is 40,000, which is nearly three times less than the Jin army under Wang Gong's command, in fact, this is also the main reason why the Jin army has confidence.
Wang Gong knew that the news about the destruction of Xie Shi's subordinates was true, and on the one hand, he was close to stabilizing the morale of the army, and on the other hand, he urgently reported to Jiankang.
Jiankang's side received the report from Wang Gong four days later, when the battle of Dongcheng had also broken out in full swing, and the Dantu battlefield and the eastern part of Yangzhou were also in a war, and what they didn't know was that Huan Wen conquered Linxiang, the capital of Changsha County, at about this time.
"The whole army is annihilated" Chu Lianzi is an extremely good-looking woman, and she has a dumbfounded expression at this moment: "What did Xie Shinu say before, he repeatedly promised that he would win" Xie Bao, the contemporary head of the Xie family, stood tremblingly above the court, he and many hundred officials knew the news of Xie Shi's defeat and the annihilation of the whole army at the same time, and once almost stood unsteadily and sat on the ground, it was very difficult and hard to stand up.
Of course, there were also the heads of the Wang family and the Huan family, Wang Xizhi had an obvious expression of pain on his face, the Wang family had no thirteen thousand private troops, which could be regarded as a big blood loss, but Huan Yun looked at it without a face and it was difficult to see to a certain extent.
The hall was full of Chu Garlic's angry roar, so that the little emperor Sima Dan, who was only three years old sitting on the emperor's throne, was directly frightened and cried, and Chu Garlic, who was behind the tent, had to appear to appease him.
As the national abbot, Chu Li was stunned when he heard the bad news.
Their Chu clan was originally between the third-rate and second-rate families, and it took seven or eight thousand family private soldiers to smash the pot and sell iron, and brought five thousand private soldiers to Xie Shi, if the Jin army that crossed the Huaishui was really annihilated, it may be a major blow to the Wang family and the Xie family, but it is really a bit of a disaster for the Chu family.
"It's useless to talk too much."
Huan Yun's face was also not good-looking, but it didn't hurt much, and their Huan clan gate valve only invested five thousand to the battle of Huaishui, which was not considered to hurt the muscles and bones.
He didn't even look at the Empress Dowager and the Emperor in Gaotai, and directly faced the rest of the gate lords, asking: "Do you gather the remaining forces, attack the Yu clan first, and then" Yes, you can't see the people of the Yu clan above the court, even if there are, they are only some of the Yu clan's people, if you want to say who is still calm on the face of the Yu family, then there are really only those Yu clan people left.
Huan Yun said that he wanted to attack the Yu family, and before the whole sentence was finished, someone ran out of the train, they were the people who belonged to the Yu family, and they ran probably to ventilate the news, but in fact, it was mainly for the sake of their own lives, after all, Huan Yun dared to speak in public, and there was no reason for people with Yu labels on their foreheads to be safe.
Sure enough, someone soon stopped those Yu family members, and it is not easy to say whether they will be dead or alive after being escorted down.
"Let's fight, if you don't fight, you can't fight."
Xie Pei's voice was not loud when he spoke, he was already seriously ill, if it weren't for the big thing, he wouldn't have appeared in the court at all: "The Yu family gathers the family's private soldiers, if you don't solve them first, I'm afraid that the inside and outside will be combined, and then it will be difficult to keep the matter of moving the capital secret." ” At this time, the little emperor had been pacified by Chu Garlic, and she no longer returned behind the curtain, looking down with sad eyes, the officials there completely ignored themselves and the little emperor, and completely gathered around the three gate lords:
