Chapter 244 Don't worry, I'm strong
Jiang Dichen looked at Yan Mo's back and said, "Tell General Dong to tell the Yan soldiers that their general has been captured. If you don't want to die, surrender."
Jiang Dichen finished speaking, and rudely pulled off Wei Biao's tiger helmet and threw it to Yan Mo, "Give this to General Dong."
"Yes, master." After Yan Mo finished speaking, he left holding Wei Biao's tiger helmet.
Wei Biao, who was seriously injured, said to Jiang Dichen with an angry face: "Jiang Dichen, don't be too proud. Yan State has thousands of generals without me. They will avenge me."
Jiang Dichen stepped forward and pinched Wei Biao's chin, sneered at him domineeringly, "General Wei, rest assured, I will meet with your Yan generals one by one."
Jiang Dichen's words made Wei Biao's face change. He looked at Jiang Dichen and asked, "Are you going to attack the State of Yan?"
After Wei Biao finished speaking, he became anxious in his heart. If Jiang Dichen was going to attack the State of Yan, then he, Wei Biao, would have no chance of turning things around.
Jiang Dichen stood up, clapped his hands with disgust, and said to Wei Biao: "You can all break the rules and come to fight Bei Ming. Isn't it normal for me to go to your Yan State?"
Five years ago, he had defeated them and signed a truce treaty between the two countries. Unexpectedly, just a few years later, they were eager to cause trouble for him again. If he didn't teach them a lesson this time, they would really think that he, Jiang Dichen, was easy to mess with.
Wei Biao was very anxious, but he didn't show it on his face. He looked at Jiang Dichen and said, "Jiang Dichen, do you know why Yan State wants to attack your Beiming?"
Wei Biao smiled smugly at this point and continued, "That's because our emperor has figured out your background in Beiming. The grain in all your treasuries combined is not even half of that in Yan State. If the war continues, it may not be good for you."
Jiang Dichen said unconcernedly, "Didn't General Wei say that your Yan State has half as much as Bei Ming? It won't hurt for me to borrow some first."
Wei Biao snorted at him, and said with disdain: "King Han, has no one ever told you that if you are too arrogant, you will be punished by heaven?"
"Don't worry, I have a strong life and God can't take me away." After Jiang Dichen finished speaking, he left in a good mood.
Wei Biao looked at his back and shouted, "Jiang Dichen, I advise you to let us go quickly, otherwise our emperor will not let you go."
Jiang Dichen said without even turning his head: "General Wei, don't worry. I have never thought of letting your emperor go."
Jiang Dichen's words made Wei Biao so angry that he almost suffocated. Damn Jiang Dichen, as long as he didn't die, he would never let him go.
Jiang Dichen didn't care what Wei Biao was thinking. At this moment, he just wanted to clean up the battlefield quickly and then meet up with Shen Ruolan and her son.
However, it was easy to capture Wei Biao. It took two hours to clear the entire battlefield.
All the Yan soldiers who fled to the south gate of the city were executed by Jiang Dichen without exception. Those trapped in the checkpoint were drowned. Those who laid down their weapons outside the city had their hands and feet tied up with ropes.
In the military camp, Jiang Dichen asked General Dong, "General Dong, how did the battle go? How many casualties did our side and the enemy side suffer?"
General Dong responded to Jiang Dichen: "In reply to the general, except for the water in the city that has not been cleaned up, everything else has been basically dealt with. As for the casualties..."
General Dong hesitated for a moment and said to Jiang Dichen, "General, our side suffered 1,835 casualties and 700 deaths, while the enemy suffered 17,000 deaths, 23,000 casualties, and 25,000 surrendered."
After General Dong finished speaking, he looked up at Jiang Dichen and asked, "General, should we rescue the enemy's wounded?"
After he finished speaking, he paused and continued, "We don't have much medicine left."
General Dong really admired his own general. He had been fighting for ten days in a row but had no good way to deal with the Yan people. He didn't expect that as soon as his general arrived, he caused the Yan State to lose tens of thousands of people in just half a day. It was really a relief.
Jiang Dichen listened to General Dong's report and said without thinking: "Since the wound medicine is limited, we don't need to worry about the prisoners. We should put our own army first in everything."
After Jiang Dichen finished speaking, he began to think deeply. The total number of deaths, injuries and surrenders of the Yan State was nearly 50,000. It was estimated that there were at least 50,000 people in their base camp in the rear.
There are 50,000 people protecting them in the rear, which is enough to show that they must have brought enough military rations this time.
When Jiang Dichen thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He was so focused on capturing Wei Biao that he missed out on such an important thing as food. Now two hours have passed, and he's afraid that they have already packed up and retreated.
However, regardless of whether they retreated or not, Jiang Dichen would not let them go easily. With a plan in mind, Jiang Dichen instructed Yan Mo, "Yan Mo, send someone to check where Wei Biao's fire troops have fled to."
"Yes, master." After Yan Mo finished speaking, he turned around and walked out.
General Dong also realized something. He knocked his head and said to Jiang Dichen with regret: "General, it's all my fault for not doing my job well. I actually forgot such an important thing."
The name "Fire Army" may not seem special, but they were accompanied by an army that specialized in protecting food. However, he was only concerned with dealing with matters at the city gate and had forgotten about the most important food.
Jiang Dichen raised his hand to General Dong and said calmly, "It's okay. It's already great that we were able to capture Wei Biao today."
As for the rest, as long as Jiang Dichen doesn't give up, they will be his sooner or later.
"Yes." General Dong was relieved to see that his general did not blame him.
Jiang Dichen then asked General Dong to arrange a team to send Wei Biao to the capital, while he returned to his temporary study to plan the next steps.
Late at night, Yan Mo brought news that Yan's fire troops had evacuated to Yan's Shiba County, so Jiang Dichen did not continue to chase them.
Because he had more important things to do, it would not be too late to cause trouble for the State of Yan after he was done with his work.
That night, Jiang Dichen called General Dong and gave him detailed instructions, asking him to guard the city gate at all costs. Then he and his subordinates quietly left overnight.
General Dong looked at Jiang Dichen's departing back, his face full of worry, but what the general had already decided was not something that his subordinates could change.
Seven days later, in Li Jiangcheng, Shen Ruolan and the others got up in the morning, had breakfast, and prepared to continue their next journey as usual.
Suddenly there was a "pop" sound from behind her carriage, and she turned around and asked, "What happened?"
When Mu Jin heard Shen Ruolan's voice, she immediately knelt on the ground and apologized to Shen Ruolan, "Madam, I'm sorry. I accidentally knocked over the young master's food on the way."
When Shen Ruolan heard that the two children's rations had been spilled, she quickly got off the carriage and asked, "What happened?"
