  Chapter 496 Cleaning up the battlefield

   At noon on July 6th in the third year of Tianxuan, the final strong attack of the third batch of invasion fleets with the Anti-Yi Village Alliance came to an end. However, Qu Mao was not in a hurry to leave, and stayed in Fushui Village that night.

   Except that Liu Qianhui would pull out the cloth strip that blocked her mouth when feeding, Qu Mao just tied Liu Qianhui to her side at other times, and didn't even bother to talk to Liu Qianhui.

In the beginning, Liu Qianhui would yell at Qu Mao every time she pulled out the cloth strip that blocked her mouth, but when Qu Mao smelled the foul smell coming from under Liu Qianhui's armor, Liu Qianhui became sluggish, with a dazed expression, Pull off the cloth that gags his mouth, and he won't say anything.

Until around 11 o'clock in the evening, Qu Mao arranged for several heroines to guard Liu Qianhui, took a bath in Fushui Village, changed her clothes, and put all the props in Liu Qianhui's hero equipment column, treasure equipment column, and fashion equipment column. He took it off and changed into a set of aboriginal clothes for Liu Qianhui on the boat.

  Now Liu Qianhui is like a walking corpse, with dull eyes and taciturnity. Qu Mao doesn't really want to talk to Liu Qianhui at this point in time, but arranges for a few heroines to be strictly guarded the whole time, and doesn't even bother to conduct interrogations.

In the early morning of July 7th in the third year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao woke up in Fushui Village, rode a horse, and under the **** of the fourth squadron of fifth-tier court guards, entered the final stage of the third batch of invasion fleet landing troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance. Camp inspection.

  The camp built by the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance, not counting the areas of Jin Village, Mu Village, Water Village, Fire Village, and Tu Village, is only about 9 square kilometers in size, which is considered a very large area.

Although occupying this camp for more than two months, the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance did not carry out effective construction. Even the docks for berthing warships in the bay are temporary, and some fortifications are extremely simple. It is nothing more than some wooden refusal Majia sandbags piled up.

  However, the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance also reclaimed dozens of units of cultivated land. Presumably Liu Qianhui had some other ideas at the beginning, but it is a pity that the entire huge camp is now used to detain prisoners of war.

  After Zhao Pan heard the news of Qu Mao’s visit, he quickly came over and said to Qu Mao: “My lord, it seems that the third batch of invasion fleet of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance really plans to confront us on Ji Island for a long time.

  In the walls of Jincun, Shuicun, Mucun, Huocun, and Tucun, and on the side close to the enemy camp, there is a small amount of cultivated land that has been cultivated. There are more than 1,000 units of cultivated land in total.

  The ponds that accumulate fresh water in the enemy's camp can be seen at a glance that they were dug by hand.

  In addition, there are some arable land for cultivated grain..."

   Qu Mao rolled his eyes to Zhao Pan and said, "Damn it! Zhao Pan, is this something you should be concerned about? Let me ask you: How many prisoners of war were captured in the entire camp?"

Zhao Pan was taken aback, and then said: "My lord, in the last battle yesterday, more than 10,000 enemy soldiers were killed, and about 30,000 of the captured enemy troops were intact, and another 20,000 were injured. The number is 50,000."

   Qu Mao nodded, and said: "Let me just say, how could the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance still have 100,000 troops left, 60,000 is amazing.

   Sure enough, there were only about 60,000 people, so I told Zhen Fu to come here first, and give priority to the prisoners of war here.

  By the way, please inform Xuande that at least five villages will be built on the enemy camp, and it is best to build ten villages. In the future, this place will be built into a trading port.

  In addition, the army will carefully clean the battlefield to find out where the enemy's strategic materials are placed? "

  Zhao Pan responded to Qu Mao, turned his head and prepared to leave.

  Qu Mao stopped Zhao Pan and asked, "Zhao Pan, has no one from the Navy come to report the results of the battle? I remember that there are at least 200 warships in the bay."

  Zhao Pan said: "My lord, the news of your coming here has been reported to the navy, and it is estimated that the navy will arrange a hero to report to you soon.

  The 50,000 prisoners of war mentioned by my subordinates just now do not include naval prisoners of war. "

  Qu Mao nodded. Less than half an hour later, Fuer Swamp appeared next to Qu Mao and saluted Qu Mao: "My lord, come down and report the results of the navy's battle yesterday."

   Qu Mao said with a smile: "Yesterday, the navy should have gained a lot, right? There are so many warships, it seems that none of them escaped."

  Fur Swamp smiled and said, "Your Excellency, it's okay.

  We only lost five small warships, not sunk, but damaged.

   Enemy warships were sunk 20 ships, others are intact.

  Our army captured five giant warships..."

   Qu Mao smiled and listened to Fuer Swamp's report on the results, but did not speak.

  Full Swamp finally said: "My lord, the navy has captured 8,000 enemy soldiers, and most of them are not seriously injured.

  A total of 180 warships of various types were captured. After the enemy’s sunk warships were salvaged and repaired, they were also our spoils. After all, the sinking time was short and the repair was not difficult. "

   Qu Mao nodded, and said: "The prisoners of war from the navy are also sent to the shore, there is no need to send them to Zhongdao, Zhen Fu will come here soon.

   Let Sylvia decide to keep those warships, but at least pack 100 warships and give them to Su Yan for sale. Our territory of Yi Village is still short of gold coins. "

  Full Swamp's eyes lit up, and he said: "My lord, only one hundred warships will be handed over, counting the warships left over from last time, there will be no problem for our navy to deploy another 200 warships.

  This means that the total number of naval personnel has to increase by at least a hundred thousand, do you agree? "

   Qu Mao said: "The size of the navy can continue to expand, it doesn't matter.

   Tell Sylvia not to worry about the planning of the naval branch fleet. After we return to the Yi Village Tavern, I will recruit 35 more heroes in one go, and see if there are any naval heroes.

  If there are naval heroes, Sylvia must consider these newly recruited naval heroes when arranging the naval fleet. "

  Fur Swamp said: "Yes, my lord!

  My subordinates immediately reported the situation to Sir Sylvia. Warships are the strength of our navy. With the addition of new naval heroes, our naval strength in Yi Village is bound to increase greatly. "

   Before Fuer Swamp had time to leave, Chafidel had already shouted loudly while running towards Qu Mao: "My lord, we have found the enemy's strategic material warehouse.

  They are really cunning. Instead of building a material warehouse, they dug a cellar underground to serve as a strategic material warehouse. The amount of food is not much, but the storage of war consumables such as arrows is really rich. "

   Qu Mao waited until Chafidel approached, and then said: "Very well, let's continue to clean the battlefield.

   Next, everyone should focus on the development of the territory. "

   "Yes, my lord!"
