Chapter 287
After the battle, there was cleanup on the battlefield.
More than half of the enemy's 3,000 cavalry were killed or injured. Their escape across the island left corpses everywhere, and many of their weapons and boats were captured as well.
Still, the losses on our side weren't trivial. The original hundred-plus members of Frog Fort were unscathed, but only half of the over thousand men Cheng Dalei had summoned survived.
This was why Cheng Dalei was hesitant to summon these men until the last moment. Death was inevitable in war, whether it was as light as a feather or as heavy as a mountain, and Cheng Dalei didn't want to witness it. Therefore, he chose not to get to know these men, to develop a personal bond with them. This detachment allowed him to see them as mere numbers.
"Boss, all these brothers came to join us," Xu Shenji said.
"Hmm, register them, treat the wounded, let them rest for a few days, and then we'll start their training."
