In the face of an enemy army that has fallen into a state of collapse, the most correct thing to do is to persuade them to surrender.
The Han army naturally persuaded them to surrender, but they found that the enemy was surprisingly tough, and they could not escape and would not surrender, but instead carried out hysterical desperate efforts.
After the Persians and Romans decided to oppose the Han Chinese, they continued to promote Han Chinese policies, including the total castration of slaves in the Han Empire.
Defeat and capture are nothing to many races, and even some races are happy to use the victors as dogs after defeat, and they get the information that the Han people rarely accept dog legs, and the Han people are castrated as slaves.
For this reason, all but a few of the ethnic groups chose to surrender on their knees.
"It is necessary to reverse the trend" Li Kuang had already ordered the sword and shield soldiers who had been charging forward to retreat and repair, and he had obtained the results of the interrogation of some prisoners of war, knowing that the Persian Sassanid and Rome had been propagating the domineering side of the Han Chinese, and knew the seriousness of the matter: "The hopeless enemy will inevitably resist and choose to the end, and such a situation should not occur." ” The Han Empire is very strong, and the Han army is also very brave and good at fighting, but the war is destined to be bloody, once every enemy is fighting the Han army with despair, the Han army will have some unnecessary casualties if it can fight.
In fact, a powerful enemy is not terrible, the most terrible thing is an enemy who is so desperate that he has the will to die.
"While it's mostly true, it really should be reversed."
Song Ping already has his own preliminary battle damage data in his hand: "Do you want to be a typical example?"
It doesn't really matter what you actually do, it's about letting people who want to know something get the information they want to know.
It is true that the Han Empire will carry out a comprehensive castration of slaves, but this thing cannot be "hammered" and cause the negative impact of increasing the enemy's desperate death.
"It's supposed to be typical."
Li Kuang immediately thought of the Wusun people, and quickly vetoed it again.
He thought for a moment and said, "Properly arrange this group of captives, so that all ethnic groups can see that the Han is a country of etiquette." ” Some armies treat prisoners of war more than their own soldiers, and this is nothing more than psychological warfare, giving the opposing soldiers the impression that even if they are defeated and surrendered, not only can their personal safety be guaranteed, but they may be better off living a small life than staying in their own country.
In this way, it can weaken the enemy's will to die, and may even induce the enemy to surrender on its own initiative.
Song Ping knew very well what to do, and immediately responded.
Today's battle began in the morning when the east was white, and the battle between the Han army and the anti-Han axis coalition army on the frontal battlefield consumed nearly two hours, and another hour or so on the "city wall" front in the middle, and it was only at noon that the attack camp was entered.
The camp of the anti-Han axis coalition army was very large, although the anti-Han axis coalition army was chaotic on its own, and it took the Han army about two hours to advance about seven or eight miles, and with the scale of the entire camp, it only captured about three or four out of ten Entering the offensive and defensive battle of the camp, the casualties of the Han army were much higher than before, and the two sword and shield soldiers who had been charging in front finally retreated 1,706 people, of which 76 were seriously wounded, and the rest were more or less slightly wounded.
Song Ping had just received statistics on the losses and results of the sword and shield soldiers, and the losses were those, and the results that could be counted by ear were more than 4,000 people killed, and the verbal report of military merit was about 6,000 enemy troops destroyed.
Song Ping thought that the results reported by the sword and shield soldiers were very reasonable, after all, the enemy army fell into chaos at the beginning, and it was squeezed that it was difficult to retreat backwards, so that they counterattacked in a state of chaos.
The anti-Han axis coalition forces really squeezed themselves to the point that there was no way to retreat, causing their easternmost friendly forces to face the slaughter of the Han army, and the tribes that were not on the front line of the war with the Han army fought for their own survival.
From the beginning of the battle to the present stage, Song Ping guessed that the enemy army he had eliminated should be more than 30,000 people, and the enemy army also died in cannibalism every moment, and he was very sure that even if the main force of this anti-Han axis coalition army was not completely abolished, it would take at least half a year or more to regain its combat effectiveness after escaping.
"The other side is too chaotic, and our people can't confirm the movements of their main force."
Song Ping felt ridiculous and had a headache at the same time: "This war has become a bad battle until now. ” Li Kuang, as the commander, has long confirmed that it was a bad battle.
It was not that Li Kuang had lost command of his own troops, but that the troops were too small and the enemy was too chaotic, and even if he was trying very hard to kill, the enemy was killing each other, but he could not effectively persuade him to surrender, and it was difficult for him to end the war in a short time.
The reality is that if an army does not surrender in batches, and the number of troops is large to a certain extent, no matter how chaotic it is, it is impossible to be wiped out in a short time.
There is only one possibility that a large army will be wiped out in a short period of time, and that is that this army has lost the will to fight and surrendered in order.
Many times there will always be a sentence, such as if a certain army is defeated, or the whole army is wiped out in a very short time, then there is usually an evaluation such as "how many pigs are killed by the enemy, and they will be killed for x days".
It's because pigs don't surrender, they don't stop until they run to safety or die.
The troops who surrendered under the orders of the commander were all taken prisoner at the first order.
A full Roman legion and a remnant legion, carrying about 10,000 vassal races, broke away from the camp under the leadership of Malus.
The Romans were not like those who fled on horseback, and as soon as they left the crowded area, they galloped towards the mountains and fields, and could only be evacuated in a trotting posture mixed with the large army that had fled.
I don't know if it was out of pride or quality, but the Romans maintained a relatively well-formed formation even when they fled.
This is very rare compared to all the defeated armies, including the Persians.
The Han army was held back by the rout of the stranded anti-Han axis coalition army, and the scouts who dispersed were difficult to conduct effective reconnaissance because the overall situation on the battlefield was too chaotic, and many times it was difficult for the scouts to report effective information, and the news of the Romans' escape from the camp was not reported to Li Kuang for the time being.
Elbata also escaped from the camp, but compared to most of the troops that Malus could still bring with him, he was able to effectively control less than 3,000 troops, and the rest were left in the camp.
It doesn't make a difference whether the anti-Han Axis coalition forces have commanders or not, and their extremely chaotic situation has in some ways prevented the Han army's high-speed advance.
Liu Shen, who was on the battlefield, was in a state of confusion in the face of the scene in front of him.
What he saw was a mess everywhere, not only the Han people were killing, but the enemy army was also killing each other, people were constantly falling everywhere, but the space was not visible for a short time, and it was still so crowded at a glance.
After the Han riflemen entered the enemy camp, it was difficult to maintain a long array line due to the influence of the terrain.
They were divided into squads and had their own shooting horizons.
Compared with the long array line before, the Han riflemen were divided into several squads, and the probability of the impact was greatly increased.
That's a decrease in the density of fire, a decrease in the frequency of fire, and then there's the fact that they're in hysteria with an enemy force that can even ignore death.
It's funny but it's realistic, the anti-Han axis coalition is so hysterical that they forget their fear, ignore the people in front of them and keep falling in pieces, and run wildly with their legs to collide, but they really rush to the distance where they can fight hand-to-hand with the Han riflemen.
It's just that the anti-Han axis coalition forces that have lost their minds, they ignore the impact of death and just want to run out of a passage that can escape for their lives, and after the collision with the Han riflemen, no one thinks about the Han soldiers fighting at all.

"Retire, exit the camp" The heralds ran in various positions, conveying the latest orders given by Qin Song.
Riflemen should not stay on such a battlefield, their current number is still scarce, and they themselves are used as a seed for army expansion, which is why they still maintain the number of Junjishan Lieutenant's Department, and in the future, they will be dismantled into various standing armies and become the backbone of the formation of firearms divisions.
Qin Song ordered the musketeers to retreat with Li Kuang's consent.
As Li Kuang, who had an overview of the overall situation, he did not immediately respond to Qin Song's request, and only allowed the riflemen on the front line to retreat when the troops reinforced from the rear could take over the combat position of the riflemen.
In fact, it was not a reinforcement force, it was the defenders that Li Kuang had left on the east bank of the Penchi River, and their original role was to prevent the unfavorable operation of crossing the river, and to play the necessary force to ensure that the river defense was not lost even if the troops crossing the river were defeated or even completely annihilated.
After the collapse of the anti-Han Axis coalition army, Li Kuang ordered the remaining reserves to arrive close to the battlefield and send them to the east bank of the Penchi River relatively late.
Li Kuang, who had already found that he could not end the war in a short time, ordered the new troops to just make a posture of forcing forward, and continued to give the enemy troops fear that they would kill each other, but not rush to fight them.
"We have too few troops," Li Kuang didn't know how many times he had said this.
He said with a wry smile on his face: "I won the battle, but the result was that I couldn't advance and couldn't retreat. ” "Duhu, after this battle, you have also become a famous general in the world."
Song Ping didn't feel that he was complimenting: "You invested 10,000 troops, but you defeated more than 200,000 enemy troops. ” It is because of this that Li Kuang feels aggrieved.
People always think that since they have achieved a certain result, they will definitely be able to do better if they have more chips at hand, and after doing better, they will want to be perfect.
Li Kuang is now in such a situation, if he can use 10,000 troops to defeat more than 200,000 enemy troops, he will not be willing to just defeat them, and he will not be able to get the replenishment of troops in a short period of time due to his lack of greed, so he will become depressed.
The commander who was the winner was depressed, so how could Malus and Elbata, who were on the losing side, be embarrassed The commanders of the two anti-Han Axis coalition forces never regained contact after they broke away from the chaotic camp, and even chose the direction of retreat.
Elbata was retreating straight to the west, and what he wanted to do most was to retreat to the third line of defense, quickly take over the command of the third line of defense, and prepare to resist the approach of the Han army.
Malus chose to retreat to the north, he knew that his side was very short-legged, and retreating north was likely to be overtaken, but the reason why he still chose to do so was that he knew that the city wall could not stop the attack of the Han army at all, so he retreated to the north to the grazing area of the coalition army, and obtained enough travel power, and he would not return to the border of the Hunnite country and retreat directly to the territory of Sasansan.
The different choices are because of the different countries behind it, the country where El Bata is located is separated from the middle of the Han Empire by a Hunnite, but as long as there is hope, even if it is only a faint hope, he will not give up trying to resist the Han army, as long as they can block the Han army for one more day, Sassanid can have one more day to prepare.
Malus's Rome was far enough away from the Han Empire to worry that it was also a maritime expeditionary force from the Han Empire, unless the Sassanid fell, otherwise Rome would still be a long way away from the invasion of the Han Empire on land.
The wilderness was full of people on the run, some on foot, some on horseback, and everyone had either a look of joy on their faces or a palpitation on their faces.
Elbata tried to collect the rout around him, and he next had to organize the arrangement of the third line of defense, the more troops the better, knowing that the rout was not a good choice, but how could one more head consume an arrow or a bullet for the Han army Elbata, who was hungry for more troops, soon learned that the tribes no longer had the so-called Persian authority, and there were a lot of people who refused directly, and there were more weapons against each other.
The various ethnic groups have seen the strength of the Han Empire, and how much they fear the Han Empire, so how much they hate the Persians who pulled themselves into the anti-Han axis.
They were afraid of the strength of the Persian Sassanids before, and after such a big defeat, seeing that the Persians were so vulnerable in front of the Han people, they would have a kind of "Persians are nothing more than that" thought, and they did not dare to face the Han people, but dared to bare their teeth at the Persians.
"Fools, those fools" Elbata was not angry and insulting, but sneered: "They have joined the anti-Han camp, will the Han people let them go if they do not stand firmly with us and continue to fight against the Han people, not only the Han people will attack them, but we will not let the hostile mongrels go" Elbata, who was galloping on horseback, suddenly saw a black line in front of him, and at the same time saw the rout soldiers running towards the black line falling down in pieces, and suddenly came over for a while, no wonder the number of Han troops before was so small, it turned out that there was a Han army that detoured back to the rear of the battlefield
