Chapter 161 Digestion (please vote)

The Xiang family's mansion has been completely reduced to the residence of the Southern Army at this time.

"The three groups of spies from nearby cities have all been dealt with," the scout battalion commander reported.

This was the third day after the war. Duguyin did not continue to advance. Instead, he directly ordered the entire army to rest and reorganize and stay in the Iron Armor City for a while.

Tens of thousands of prisoners have not been dealt with, and it is impossible to bury them all on the spot. There is also a large amount of supplies in the city lord's palace, which cannot be loaded with storage soul guides. Not only that, the soldiers of the army who captured the city for the first time are all there.

To adapt, Duguyin directly slowed down his advance.

Peace has lasted for a long time. Apart from Kalos City, Iron Armor City should be the only city that has fallen in the past thousand years. The people are uneasy and the soldiers are at a loss.

It was Duguyin who issued an order that all soldiers should live in the school grounds. Except for routine duties, they were not allowed to enter the city at will. Soldiers who entered the city were not allowed to disturb the people. At the same time, a charity office was set up to help families destroyed during street fighting, and the records were recorded and submitted to Duguyin.

.

Soon, the grudges in the hearts of the people began to disappear and they accepted the soldiers of the Southern Legion.

Among these things, the gold soul coins played a major role. Not only did the soldiers who participated in the battle received at least ten gold soul coins, but the ruined families also received subsidies from the Southern Legion.

Everyone is in disbelief, the war is ruthless, not to mention that the reason for the collapse of their family is not entirely due to the southern soldiers. They did not expect to receive subsidies like this. If it was the Xiang family, this would be absolutely impossible.

Of course, as time went by, other cities also sensed that something was wrong. Why didn't the Xiang family contact them for so long? So they sent spies to the Iron Armored City one after another.

It was still like a mud cow entering the sea. The spies went out, but the news did not come back. This is why Xiang Dao could not wait for reinforcements.

The incoming reinforcements were waiting for news of their spies on the road, so they naturally did not dare to act rashly, so they delayed again and again, until now the armored city was completely destroyed.

"Very good." Dugu Yin was extremely satisfied. After this battle, these soldiers were completely transformed.

"It was the marshal who had predicted the enemy's performance against the prophet. Without the marshal, how could we have achieved such a record?" the commander of the scout battalion said with emotion.

"Stop flattering me here. Are there any remnants of soldiers in the city? Are there any remnants of the Xiang family? You, the commander of the scout battalion, have to watch these."

At this moment, Chu Yu, who was in charge of the resettlement and military arrangements in the city, walked in and said, "Marshal, according to preliminary statistics, a total of 357 houses were damaged in this street fighting, and 12 streets were damaged. In the most serious one, half of the street collapsed.

There are probably nearly a thousand people affected, and most of them have gone to the charity office to receive subsidies, which is more than enough to continue living."

"That's okay. Thanks to Guzhujian and the others, they were able to hold back most of the troops in the Iron Armored City." Hearing these loss figures, Duguyin breathed a sigh of relief. Most of the Iron Armored City had been preserved.

"Speaking of Lone Bamboo Sword, Marshal, what are we going to do with those prisoners?" Chu Yu frowned. If they were prisoners of the Star Luo Empire, they would naturally wait for the Star Luo Empire to send people to redeem them after they were captured.

This is also the tacit understanding between the two parties. Fighting is allowed, but the captives captured alive cannot be abused. The two parties will exchange money for their return. Of course, this tacit understanding is limited to soul masters most of the time.

But it's different now. If these people are released, they are going against themselves. Being able to capture them so quickly this time does not mean that it will be so easy when the two armies set up their formations to fight.

Even if their soul guides were more advanced and more powerful, facing the same huge army, it would be impossible for them to suffer no losses at all.

"According to the information we inquired about, they all belong to the First Regular Army of the Northern Army and are part of the Iron Armored Douluo's own armed forces. There are many soul masters among them. According to current statistics, there are more than 1,000 of them."

The northern army is different from the southern army. They don't have the Central Army organization, and basically other empires don't have it either. Most of them are composed of one soul master and a few ordinary soldiers. There are very few legions composed of all soul masters.

The First Regular Army has more than 30,000 people, and the soul masters number between 1,000 and 2,000. In order to guard them, the Central Army led by Dugu Yin directly divided half of them to guard them.

"They were all drugged, escorted to the Sunset Forest, and handed over to the care of Marshal Dugu Ren." Dugu Yin seemed to have expected it. "Their food will be halved, and they will be allowed to farm in the Sunset Forest. They will be judged based on their performance."

Chu Yu nodded, while silently thinking in his mind.

It's good to be guarded in the Sunset Forest. Geographically speaking, it's located near the central circle of the empire; militarily speaking, it has a titled Douluo with tens of thousands of soldiers.

The most important thing is that it is the closest to here. If we travel quickly, we can escort this group of people back in two days, and then they will not have to worry about so many burdens.

"Marshal, there is one more thing. Many enemy generals are willing to surrender." Chu Yu, who had just turned around, suddenly remembered and turned to report to Dugu Yinhui, who was looking down at the sand table.

The main reason is that many of these generals are civilians with the same background as him. They were previously suppressed by powerful forces and had to submit to the iron armor Douluo's lewd power.

Duguyin looked at Shapan and said without replying: "If you don't accept it, go to Sunset Forest to reform it first."

"Marshal, these people are not the direct descendants of Iron Armor Douluo. Most of them have the same background as me. They have to serve under Iron Armor Douluo just for the sake of their future." Chu Yu felt that he could still fight for it, "We are hiring people.

No matter how miserable these generals are, they have experienced military life and have many years of experience in leading troops."

Duguyin raised his head from the sand table and said, "Marshal Chu Yu, first of all, you have to understand that our military philosophy is completely different from that of the Northern Army. Their generals have to learn a lot when they come to us. Secondly, can you guarantee that they are not pretending to surrender?

?Guarantee that the soldiers who have just won the battle will not be angry when they see their defeated general sitting on their head?"

Chu Yu was surprised, yes, he hadn't considered any of this. He just had the same mindset as before. Conquering and surrendering generals was written all over the military books. He thought he could also imitate the sages.

Then he felt ashamed and his whole old face turned red. He really let these surrendered generals ride on the soldiers' heads. He was afraid that he would be the first one to be killed in the mutiny.

Duguyin slowed down his tone, "But since you praise him so much, I can go and see for myself. If there are really useful talents, I can just train them at that time."

Chu Yu quickly looked at Dugu Yin gratefully. It turns out that I have such an important position in the Marshal's heart, and to be able to do this for him, then he must be utterly devastated and swear allegiance to me.
