Chapter 49 by the inspection of the soldiers after the war (ask for a monthly ticket collection)
Walking up to the city, Zhu Youzhen involuntarily walked towards the area of yesterday, after all, the enemy and us over there were the most seriously killed, the corpses had already piled up, and even the whole land was stained red with blood.
At this time, Zhu Youzhen stayed at the city gate after the battle, because he wanted to see the battlefield with his own eyes and see the tragic situation over there.
Because he knew that whether it was the soldiers of the Beijing camp or the Qin soldiers, they died in the battle for the Ming Dynasty this time.
As the person who proposed to go out of the city to fight, he Zhu Youzhen had the obligation to see with his own eyes the remains of those warriors who sacrificed their lives for the country.
There is no distinction between Beijing soldiers, Qin soldiers, soldiers and ordinary people.
"Your Majesty?"
"Huh, Your Majesty?"
"It's Your Majesty......"
As Zhu Youzhen gradually approached the outside of the city wall, the soldiers of the Beijing camp who were carrying the corpses and cleaning up the battlefield stopped what they were doing and looked at him.
And the soldiers of the Jing soldiers and the white pole soldiers who helped carry the corpses also turned their heads to look at this side.
Somehow, there are tens of thousands of busy people here at the gate of the city, but there is almost no communication.
Even when he saw Zhu Youzhen, he only whispered a few words in a slightly surprised voice.
The atmosphere, heavy and oppressive.
These people ......
Wang Chengen, who was following Zhu Youjian, frowned slightly, because he found that the eyes of those soldiers of the Beijing camp and some Qin soldiers around him were a little strange.
It stands to reason that Zhu Youzhen, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, went to the city wall in person, and these soldiers in the Beijing camp should feel happy and honored, but the situation in front of them is that those people look at Zhu Youzhen indifferently or numbly.
Even, Wang Chengen faintly saw a strange emotion in the eyes of those people.
He walked a few steps to catch up with Zhu Youzhen, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, don't get any closer, the emotions of these soldiers are ...... I'm afraid it's a little abnormal. ”
"......" Zhu Youzhen was stunned and looked around a few times.
As Wang Chengen said, he also saw indifference and strangeness from the eyes cast by those soldiers of the Beijing camp and the soldiers of the Qin army.
Zhu Youzhen, who guessed the reason after thinking about it, sighed slightly.
This is because the casualties are too great.
There were heavy casualties, which could be guessed by Zhu Youzhen without having to tell the generals under his command.
There is no way, after all, this time out of the city to fight, a total of 95,000 soldiers, what they are facing is an army of 50,000 demons who are stronger than them in terms of overall strength and individual soldier quality.
No one knows whether they are the strongest army in the world, but there is no doubt that they are a first-class army!
The Ming Jing battalion lost nearly 10,000 and suffered 20,000 wounds, while the Qin soldiers lost 2,000 and suffered 3,000.
In this way, the Ming army lost a total of 12,000 casualties, plus 35,000 wounded, and could not participate in the battle!
I have to say that this is a very big loss, because the demon army lost less than 4,000 killed and less than 6,000 wounded, which means that the demon army only lost 10,000.
In the past five hours or so yesterday, Zhu Youzhen beat the drums from beginning to end, and he has never given orders once, and even he himself feels like a mascot.
But it is undeniable that the role of Zhu Youzhen, the "mascot", is irreplaceable, because as long as he still appears on the battlefield, brave and fearless drumming, and soldiers who go out of the city to fight, there will be no panic on his face.
This cannot but be said to be the huge role brought by the identity of the Ming Emperor.
But in fact, after nearly five hours of beating the drum, in fact, Zhu Youzhen's hands were numb, and even blood blisters rose.
However, he couldn't stop, because once he stopped, the nearby generals would have the illusion that His Majesty had stopped, probably because he felt that the battle situation was unfavorable.
As the saying goes, the path he chose had to be completed with tears in his eyes, but despite this, Zhu Youzhen still persevered.
Don't think that Zhu Youzhen can win by standing there beating drums and cheering, because what he is there has really boosted morale.
But how can the huge difference in strength between the two sides be changed by one person in a few days?
Looking at the soldiers with low morale, Zhu Youzhen's heart was very heavy, even if there was a mountain of pressure, there was also a strong sense of guilt.
After all, it was he who asked to go out of the city to fight the demon army, and now that he has suffered heavy losses, he naturally has an unshirkable responsibility.
But now is not the time to think about this, because the demons outside the capital have not retreated, with the current morale, let alone going out to fight, defending the city may be a problem!
Zhu Youzhen knew what these soldiers were thinking, because as an emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he led these soldiers of the Beijing camp, including the Qin soldiers, out of the city to fight.
Maybe it's not a big deal on weekdays, but once there are heavy casualties, most of the soldiers of the Beijing camp who are immersed in grief, including those soldiers of the Qin army, will have some emotions.
They even have the idea that this person is the one who has caused great losses to our fellow citizens.
Once you think of this, whether it is the soldiers of the Beijing camp or the soldiers of the Qin army, it is inevitable that you will have a different idea in your heart.
"Your Majesty, let's leave first. Wang Chengen whispered beside him.
Zhu Youzhen shook his head and ordered Wang Chengen to bring the war drum, but he didn't speak, he walked up directly to beat the drum, and sang loudly:
"The wolf smoke rises, the rivers and mountains look north at the dragon flag, the horse grows, and the sword qi is like frost......
...... Hatred is crazy and the long knife is going, and how many siblings are loyal to their souls
...... What a pity to die to repay the family and the country, endure and sigh, and are even more speechless, full of blood and tears
The horseshoe goes south, people look north, people look north, the grass is green and yellow, and the dust is flying......"
The surrounding Beijing camp soldiers and Qin soldiers were stunned for a moment, and they didn't know what was going on, so they listened attentively, only feeling passionate and generous, majestic, and enthusiastic.
It seems that the song tells the story of a soldier who fought on the battlefield and spanned his life.
"That's a good sound......"
About a few zhang away from Zhu Youzhen, Yang Danhai, a pawn in the Beijing camp, raised his arm and wiped the blood on his face, listening carefully to the moving song, and a kind of sky-high fighting intent burst out in his heart.
On the side, Liu Siteng and some generals sat on the ground in unison, listening silently, and the gradually condensed eyes on their bodies and the slowly rising fighting spirit knew that Zhu Youzhen's song had an effect.
After Zhu Youzhen saw it, he said sadly and solemnly: "This battle has suffered heavy losses, but it is my fault, you are injured, do you hurt?"
Zhu Youzhen's simple greeting made everyone present only feel an inexplicable sadness in their hearts, so that some people, obviously men who can't cry easily, can't help but shed tears.
PS: The above song is Tu Honggang's "Loyal to the Country", I just borrowed it here, if you are interested, you can listen to it, it's very good.
