    I don't know whether I should call it lucky or not. Of the nearly a thousand casualties, less than 200 were killed in the battle, more than 500 were seriously injured, and the remaining 200-odd people were lightly injured.  If they are veterans, half of the more than two hundred people can go to the battlefield with a little bandage, but these new recruits cry for their fathers and mothers as if they are about to die.

    Zhou Er has been with Zhou Shixiong for so many years, and of course he has learned medical skills. He can tell how serious these people's injuries are at a glance.  He did not get angry on the spot, but quietly rolled up his sleeves to treat the wounds of the wounded soldiers.

    Lord Qianhu personally healed the soldiers, which could have been recorded in the annals of history in ancient times, if Zhou Er was famous enough.  His reputation was big enough in Pingxiangzhou. After Guan Chongguang was transferred from the Wei Commander Department, Zhou Er was already the first person in the Wei Commander Department.  Although his title is still Zhennan Wei Qianhu, there is no one above him who can control him. Another official at the same level is Pingxiang Wei Qianhu Zhou Wu, Zhou Er's younger brother.  The two brothers control 90% of the troops in Pingxiangzhou. Who doesn't know him?

    "Sir, let us come here." The military medical officer Pang Fu was not a direct disciple of Zhou Shixiong, but a doctor recruited from the state medical center. He had never seen such a scene on the battlefield for the first time, so he spoke.  Advise Zhou Er to leave.

    Zhou Er said with a smile, "Mr. Pang, you just came to Zhennan Guard and you don't need to know the situation. Anyone who knows medical skills here must help treat the wounded. This is the rule set by the Marquis. You will understand it gradually. I  It¡¯s okay, go and do your work.¡±

    There are so many rules in Zhennanwei, but Pang Dafu likes them very much.  It was his first time to deal with so many injuries, and it was also his first time to see so many soldiers who knew how to deal with injuries.  With the assistance of Qianzhen Nanwei, all the injuries were dealt with in less than two hours, and the final confirmed death toll was 310 people and 583 injured.  The 4,000 Pingxiangzhou Guards were reduced by more than 20%.

    The next day, Zhou Er mixed the defeated troops of Lang Son Prefecture, less than a thousand people, into the Pingxiang Prefecture Guards. Yesterday he did not let them go to the battlefield. Today, he did not care about so many. As long as they are healthy, they will fight.

    Zhou Er guessed correctly. In the afternoon of the same day, the Xuanguang Army attacked again, using more shields to resist the crossbows of the Pingxiangzhou Guards. It seemed that they would not give up until they turned themselves into turtles.  The crossbowmen also thought of a way to break the turtle shell. They asked a few crossbowmen with the best archery skills to take charge of shooting, and others helped to wind the bow and use precise strikes to deal with the turtle formation.

    The long-lasting fierce battle once again came to an end with the voluntary retreat of the Xuanguang Army.  Perhaps after experiencing a battle, the performance of the new recruits was much better, and the number of casualties was reduced by more than a hundred.  Since the Xuanguang Army retreated on its own initiative and no bodies were left on the battlefield, it is impossible to count how many people were killed or injured by the Xuanguang Army. Zhou You estimated that it was similar to his own.

    The main means of killing is still from the crossbow. Ruan Fuchi¡¯s vigilance was right, but it¡¯s a pity that he guessed the beginning but not the end.  It is really a pity that such a good idea as the turtle formation still failed with the crossbow.

    Zhou Shixiong led four thousand soldiers to Kuikun, and the third day of fierce fighting was going on below the city.  Nguyen Phuc Chi's Turtle Formation was promoted again. He nailed multiple shields together with wooden squares. Several people carried the shield on a wall together. The shield above his head was also treated in the same way. If these shields are connected together, it will be immediately  A big house.

    This week was very uncomfortable. The spearmen could not attack the enemy. They could only dodge outside the enemy's spear attack range, but they did not dare to get too far away.  Once they leave the fence, the Xuanguang Army will send out swordsmen and axemen to chop down the fence. Without the protection of the fence, the end can be imagined.

    "Zhou Si, lead the army to relieve Zhou Er. Go quickly." As soon as Zhou Shixiong climbed over the hillside, he saw that the military camp with the banner with the word Zhou was being attacked. The situation was not good, so he quickly ordered Zhou Si to lead the army to attack.  .  He is a young master, so of course he cannot play the game of charging into battle.

    Thousands of soldiers and horses suddenly came to attack, and Ruan Fuchi quickly ordered a retreat.  We are all infantry. You can't run fast, but I can't. Zhou Si chased Xuanguang's army all the way to the bottom of the city, but he still couldn't catch up with Xuanguang's army.

    "Master!" Zhou Shixiong waited until the camp below was ready before riding an elephant into the camp. Zhou Er greeted him at the gate of the camp.  After entering the big tent, Zhou Er knelt down with a plop, touched his head to the ground and shouted in a suppressed voice.

    "Get up, no one on the battlefield dares to say that he will never be defeated. I just hope that this failure can leave a mark on you and make you remember the unpleasant taste of failure." Weeks before the reinforcements arrived, most of the veterans had been put into the battle.  On the front line, under their leadership, they barely blocked the Xuanguang Army's attack. Because of this, more than a dozen veterans were killed and dozens of others were injured.

    "Young Master, Zhou Er thinks he has no talent to lead an army, and I beg you to replace him with someone with talent." This blow exceeded Zhou Shixiong's guess, and Zhou Er actually wanted to give up.

    "Zhizhong, I can understand your feelings, but I cannot accept your approach. You have to get up wherever you fall. Do you want to retreat? Do you want me to lead the troops myself?!" Zhou Shixiong understood that Zhou Er's failure was not  His responsibilities must be carefully investigated.??Myself and Guan Chongguang.

    "Young Master," Zhou Er saw that Zhou Shixiong valued him so much, and he touched his head to the ground in shame and burst into tears.  Zhou Shixiong sighed and left the tent, leaving Zhou Er to reflect alone.

    The next day, Zhou Er led 6,000 soldiers and horses to surround Kuikun, and found that the four gates of Kuikun town were wide open. Only a few people were still in the town. Xuanguang's army had fled last night.  Of course, Zhou Shixiong could not let Xuan Guang's army use this place as a public toilet, coming and leaving whenever they wanted. He ordered Zhou Er to lead an army to pursue him, and at the same time, he forced Minzhuang to transport building materials and planned to build a pass between Xuan Guang Prefecture and Beiji Prefecture.

    Nguyen Phuc Tuan was the mastermind behind the retreat of Tuyen Quang¡¯s army. When he saw the Lang Son soldiers coming like a tidal wave on the city, he immediately ordered preparations to evacuate.  Nguyen Phuc Chi was put under house arrest as soon as he expressed his intention to wait for help. He pretended that Nguyen Phuc Chi was injured and could not see anything, and the command was temporarily assumed by Ruan Phuc Tuan.  Ruan Fujun's vigorous and resolute actions made everyone dare not protest, and he completed the retreat order most efficiently, catching Zhou Shixiong by surprise.

    It is a bit difficult for the infantry to chase the infantry. Zhou Er's Pingxiangzhou guards have not recovered their physical strength after three days of hard fighting. Zhou Shixiong's borrowed soldiers from Lang Son Prefecture also traveled for three days. To describe the soldiers as tired is not an exaggeration.  One side spared no effort to escape, but the other side had no intention of killing the enemy. The result is self-evident.  After chasing to the Kungang Pass at the junction of the two prefectures, the coalition forces did not catch up with the Xuanguang Army.

    Although Zhou Er wanted to take revenge, he knew that it was not the time to attack Xuanguang Mansion. The Beiji Mansion behind him had just been occupied and it would take time to consolidate and appease.  Zhou Shixiong's construction army arrived at the Kungang Pass three days later and chose a more dangerous location to start building the pass. At this point, Lang Son Prefecture's attack on Bei Giu Prefecture was basically over, and Bei Giu City changed hands.

    Leaving the matter of controlling the local area to build passes to Zhou Er, Zhou Shixiong went to Beiji City under the escort of Zhou Si.  Ruan Phuc Bao wants to install four artillery pieces in Beijiu City to deter the old forces of Cao Binh and Beijiu Prefecture who did not make the trip.

    "Hongchang, you have contributed a lot to the successful capture of Beizhi Mansion this time. Just say whatever you want." After trudging for several days, we arrived at Beizhi City on the first day of March.  Ruan Phu Bao was very satisfied with his godson and would reward him as soon as he opened his mouth.

    Zhou Shixiong really wanted to say that the Beizhu Mansion would reward me, but it was useless to say this, so Zhou Shixiong chose a more affordable request.  "Father, I want a Zhuangzi. I can't live with my foster father when I marry a wife in the future." Zhou Shixiong's request was not high at all, and Ruan Phu Bao readily agreed, "Okay, when you return to Lang Son City, you can follow me.  Executives go and pick one.¡±

    After the war, of course, rewards were based on merit. Although Zhou Shixiong, the godson, came out on top, no one said anything wrong. Shan Yuming did not dare to Zhou Er, let alone others. Others were not qualified to speak.  Son Ngoc Minh, as the commander of the troops of Lang Son Prefecture, received the most generous reward. Nguyen Phuc Bao appointed Son Ngoc Minh as the commander of the troops of Bei Giang Prefecture, responsible for the military affairs of Bei Giang Prefecture. The new head of Bei Giang Prefecture was Nguyen Phuc.  The bag is temporarily collected from my younger brother.

    Pingxiang Prefecture had made an agreement long ago. Nguyen Phuc Bao assigned the southernmost town of Dingli Town in Lang Son Province to Pingxiang Prefecture. The Chinese people who originally lived in Dingli Town moved to Beiji City. Everyone involved in this decision was very concerned.  satisfy.  Tingli Town is adjacent to Guangning and Beijiang Prefectures. Although it has more mountains and less land, it is connected to Guangning by land and water to Beijiang. It is very suitable for building a market town focusing on commerce. Several high-level officials from Pingxiangzhou chose this place to prepare for future arrivals.  Form a fleet to lay the foundation for overseas trade.

    In late March, Zhou Shixiong followed Nguyen Phuc Bao back to Lang Son City. With the help of Nguyen Phuc A Giang, he picked a manor and tidied it up a little to prepare for the new hostess.  This is Zhou Shixiong's fourth wedding, and he marries Zhu Ying as his wife.  Mo Lan, Mo Zhu, Shang Yueqing, Li Zhen and the four daughters married into the Ji family at the same time a month later.

    Ruan Phu Bao only showed up at the wedding of his godson to his first wife. It wasn¡¯t that he didn¡¯t pay attention to Ji Hongchang, his godson, but he was just too busy.  When Lang Son Province captured Bac Giang Province at the same level, it not only gave Tuyen Quang Province a hard slap in the face, but also stepped on the face of the Zheng family in Thang Long Province. The whole of Northern Vietnam was shaken towards the east.

    Zheng Zai, as the crown prince of Ping An, ordered Nguyen Phuc Bao to evacuate Bac Giud Palace and compensate the owner of Bac Giud Palace for the losses.  Tuyen Quang Palace was even more aggressive. Nguyen Phuc Shou directly declared war on Lang Son Palace, vowing to capture Nguyen Phuc Bao, the sinner who caused trouble in the country.  The Gaoping Mansion also responded quickly. Not only did it express its support for Prince Ping An's wise decision, but it also offered help when the Xuanguang Mansion needed it.

    The head of Quang Ninh Palace did not express his opinion. He only personally congratulated Nguyen Phuc Bao when he held a birthday banquet and expressed his position with actions.  Zheng Lisheng, the head of Beizhu Mansion, questioned Zheng Zai's qualifications to represent King Ping'an, and publicly declared that Zheng Zai's order was a false order and should be ignored.  The head of Gaoping Palace is also an activist. He transferred all the soldiers stationed at the border of Bac Giang Province and Lang Son Province, and instead stationed heavy troops at the border of Tuyen Quang Province. The meaning is very simple. If you dare to move, try and see what I do.  Cut you!
