Throughout the night, Hong Sheng led the Hami Guard and finally annihilated the two thousand Tartars attacking Heiyuan Castle.
"Report to the Commander, our army has beheaded over nineteen hundred of their troops, with more than seventy tragically dead under horses, and about ten fleeing."
"Report to the Commander, our army has captured three hundred battle horses and countless knives, shields, and spears!"
Upon hearing the battle report, the Hami Guard who fought hard all night were too exhausted to stand, yet still managed to grin.
"Report to the Commander, our army lost one hundred and thirty-seven soldiers, with over eight hundred lightly wounded and one hundred and sixty-four severely wounded."
Upon hearing this, the previously joyful atmosphere vanished in an instant, leaving only a deathly silence.
The young soldiers who had joined only in the last two years and were experiencing war for the first time could no longer hold back their cries.
