After this guy died, the remaining people had even less thought of resisting. For them, being able to charge forward with one breath meant being full of hope for the future, but the heavily armored soldiers in front of them left them with no hope at all.
Fuso did not lack a powerful army, but these troops were of no use at the beginning. After they were integrated, they suddenly found themselves becoming mercenaries of the Tang Dynasty.
Although some of them have opinions in their hearts, in this situation, what can you do even if you have ten thousand opinions? Your military commander has already surrendered. If you can follow him, you may be able to make a living. But if you show any dissatisfaction with the Tang Dynasty, the general who used to lead you can chop off your head at any time.
Take this group of heavy cavalry for example. There were not many people in the entire Fuso, only about a thousand. After Kato Jiro plundered them, he killed some of those who had a sense of resistance. It is said that even the land was dyed red that day.
Although those people are the treasures of the entire Fuso, in the eyes of Kato Jiro, if they cannot be used by me, then there is no point in keeping them. It is better to send them directly to Amaterasu and let them continue to maintain their beliefs.
Seeing that this army had made great achievements, Kato Jiro was relieved. This exhibition match was considered to be 90 points. Although Li Xiang did not say anything, as long as all the rebels on the mountain could be wiped out, it would mean that Kato Jiro's road to the upper level was completely opened.
"General Su..."
Li Xiang did not go to the hillside to check in person, mainly because the surrounding area was not safe enough, but Su Dingfang came with his men, and he had to confirm the deaths of Ito Taro and Fukuda.
"Have the two bodies been found?"
Su Dingfang was too lazy to argue with this guy. This guy had made military achievements now. Su Dingfang was itching to fight him, but this was the policy formulated by His Highness. They had to let the Fuso people deal with the Fuso people. This way, people would not have too deep hatred. If our Tang army took action, then this hatred might last for decades or even hundreds of years, which would be detrimental to our control over the entire Fuso nation.
"General Su, this man is Fukuda Yasukawa. As for Kato Taro, we injured him on the way back. The heavy cavalry didn't pay attention when they charged, so he must have been trampled to pieces. I've sent my men to look for him, but there's no news yet."
Kato Jiro said with some embarrassment, of course this is also a common thing on the battlefield, but it is better to find them if possible. According to Li Xiang's words, these two people will be the source of unrest in the future. After this battle, they will definitely become gods in the hearts of those rebels. If one of them is allowed to escape, then their appeal will be much stronger than before.
"Hurry and search. His Royal Highness has issued an order to find the deceased alive or dead. We must find him even if we have to turn an entire hill upside down."
Su Dingfang looked at Fukuda Yasukawa's body, and the people around him nodded. These people had seen Fukuda Yasukawa before. At this moment, this guy was pierced by a bow and arrow, and there were more than a dozen knife wounds on his body. If he was not dead, it would be really weird.
"I obey your command."
Kato Jiro didn't expect Li Xiang to be so cautious, but he didn't dare to complain. He quickly asked his men to work quickly. They had to find Ito Taro. This was an order from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"You should all throw these bodies overboard. I guess the fish in this bay will be very fat in the future."
Su Dingfang looked down from above. The height of the cliff was at least over 60 meters. Below was a deep pool directly connected to the sea. Many fish in the sea would come here. He might as well throw them all into it, which would also enrich the food in the sea.
Of course, everyone knew what Su Dingfang meant, and they all memorized the location of the cliff. In the future, if there were fishermen in their families, they must never come to this place to fish, because these fish eat human flesh.
After two hours of searching, they almost searched the entire hill, but still did not find Ito Taro's body. However, there was a body that looked similar to Ito Taro, but its face had been trampled by horse hooves, and the clothes it wore were very luxurious.
"Surround the entire mountain and search every person carefully. If Ito Taro cannot be found, then send all the remaining people to Goguryeo. No one can be left here. Even those corpses must be stabbed once."
Although Su Dingfang has confirmed that Taro Ito is dead, his body has not been found after all. In this case, we have to buy insurance.
Kato Jiro felt that Su Dingfang was a little too cautious, but this was an order from the Tang Dynasty general, and we have no right to refute it. We should just let our subordinates do their work honestly. Why bother with so much trouble? If you make General Su dissatisfied, and just say a few words to His Highness, your future will basically be over.
Li Xiang was not too concerned about the fight here. Compared with the big scenes he had seen before, this was just a small battle.
However, after this battle, Fuso's resistance will definitely come to an end, and local officials should know what to do. Suzuki Nakatasu has already issued documents to all local officials, requiring them to receive tribute from the capital before the New Year next year.
There are less than two months left until the Chinese New Year, so these people have plenty of time to prepare. Li Xiang originally wanted to return to the Tang Dynasty early, but Lord Suzuki hoped that Li Xiang could spend the New Year in Fuso and let these people go to the capital to kowtow to Li Xiang. This would be a good thing for everyone.
Li Xiang thought about it and it made sense. After all, there were still many unstable local officials in various places. If he met with them and said a few words of encouragement, these people might integrate into the Tang Dynasty more quickly, which would be very helpful for the Tang Dynasty to control Fuso.
The imperial court also agreed to Li Xiang's request and sent Lu Mingjiu, the head of the Lifanyuan, to jointly handle the matter.
