“.. Dad, I want to check it out. Lu Qingcheng pouted with a mace on his shoulder, lowered his head and said.

"Fighting without a female dependent, this is an ancient precept, don't mess around!" Lu An's face suddenly turned cold.

If the ancient army is stationed for a long time, then there will be camp prostitutes or family members in the army, but if it enters wartime, then it is strictly forbidden to have women in the army, because wartime troops often need to move quickly or fight with high intensity, and women who do not have the ability to protect themselves often become a burden to the army when they move quickly or fight, and if they fall into a bitter war, there are many people in the army who will hold the general who tastes women before they die, and there are not a few armies that fall into chaos. Therefore, the armies that have fought since ancient times have not allowed women to enter.

Of course, it's another thing when a few female generals lead the army.

Lu Qingcheng snorted, his eyes rolled, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

- Red Star Barracks

"After counting, coupled with the results of Battalion Commander Yan's later pursuit, our army killed a total of 953 Yellow Turban Army and captured 1,127 people, which can be described as a complete victory." Duan Ying was holding a booklet and was pushed in front of Ma Qiang by a sergeant.

Naturally, there will be no injuries among the captured enemy troops, and the wounded soldiers of the defeated side may have a way to survive in the future generations.

"What about our casualties?"

"Seventy-nine people were killed and one hundred and seventeen people were wounded, half of them were from the Lin Hai battalion, I suggest that the Lin Hai battalion should not be allowed to participate in the later battles, their losses are a bit large, the only good thing is that most of our army are armoured, except for a few who must have amputated limbs, the rest of them can recover after a few months of cultivation."

Although a large amount of armor had been made for the sergeants to wear, the arrows were merciless, and most of these casualties were caused by the arrows.

Ma Qiang listened to the battle report and sighed in his heart, seventy-nine people, that is, seventy-nine families, when he returned to the Red Star Camp, he didn't know how to explain to these seventy-nine families.

Once it will be successful, the bones will wither, and the ancients will not deceive me!

Do you want to keep going? If one day, he can calm the world, how many old people in the Red Star Camp can survive in the end, and how many people in Dasong Village can live.

Chasing the Central Plains, how romantic, but who will the countless dead souls tell their unwillingness.

As if seeing Ma Qiang's heart, Duan Ying advised, "Don't be sad, the camp owner should not be sad, this battle was not provoked by our army, but helpless to fight, if you don't fight, more than 10,000 people up and down the Red Star Battalion have become other people's playthings tonight."

The battalion owner should lift his spirits, raise volunteers, and soothe the people, so as to live up to the seventy-nine heroes who died in battle today! ”

Ma Qiang couldn't help but nodded when he heard this, yes, in the troubled times of the late Han Dynasty, where was the peach source, then Liu Biao and Liu Zhang, which one didn't want to hide in the peach source for the rest of his life, and what was the result, although he didn't know where he could go, as long as he could save more people, he should go on.

"The military advisor is reasonable, let Li Jue give them sulfonamides, don't break the brothers anymore, by the way, military advisor, you can talk about it, how should we fight in Changping? In this battle, we must also minimize the losses of our sergeants, these are the vitality of the Red Star Battalion! ”

Seeing that Ma Qiang had recovered, Duan Ying closed the folding fan with a smile and said, "Our army has won a great victory in this battle, and I learned from the prisoners that the defenders in Changping County are only 3,000 now, plus those who have just fled back, there are only 4,000 people, and this is still a chaotic army mixed with the defeated army, and its heart is in chaos, and it is not difficult to defeat."

The only thing our army has to consider is the reinforcements of the military capital county and Ji county, if the two sides rush to help, our army's disadvantage in terms of strength will be too great, so it is necessary to break the enemy quickly, just tonight! ”

"Tonight? How to break the enemy? But blow open the gates with gunpowder? ”

"The camp master is blaming Ying for not using gunpowder to break the enemy?" Duan Ying asked with a smile.

Ma Qiang shook his head and said, "I also agree with what you said before, our army needs to see blood, but now that our army has seen blood, isn't it just right to use gunpowder?" ”

"The camp owner's gunpowder has the power to open mountains and crack stones, but with such a sharp weapon, does the camp owner want to dedicate it to the court now?"

Ma Qiang shook his head, to the imperial court? Is that for Dong Zhuo or for Cao Cao, and the difficulty of the game is not increased like this.

"Since the camp owner doesn't want to dedicate it to the court now, then the gunpowder must be kept secret, and if the gunpowder is used well, it is enough to change the victory or defeat of a big war, so the camp owner must use this thing at the moment of life and death, and there can be a world and a world, not afraid of others asking for it."

Ma Qiang understood, indeed, it is easy for him to use gunpowder now, but later the court asked for it, can he not give it? Liu Hongke still has several years to live, not to mention now, even if he has a county, something like gunpowder that changes the form of war cannot be easily shown.

Otherwise, you're telling the people around you, hurry up and beat me, or you'll die.

"If you don't use gunpowder, how can you break the enemy tonight?"

"Now that I think about it, there are still defeated armies moving closer to Changping, and our army can break through the battle as long as they disguise their troops and open the city gate by fraud."

"I'm afraid Yu Poison won't be so careless." Ma Qiang has always felt that such a thing as deceiving the city gate is unreliable, and others will not open the city gate a little smaller and let you come in one by one.

And although there is no light at this time, there are torches, and you can also use hanging baskets to hang the people below one by one.

All in all, Ma Qiang felt that it was inappropriate.

"Yu Poison must be carefully guarded tonight, so the one who goes to open the city gate must be the real Yellow Turban Army, which needs to rely on the kindness of the camp owner?"

"Mine?"

"The camp owner treated the plague and eradicated the epidemic before, and you don't know how many people have received the favor of the camp owner, and now our army has captured a lot, I think there must be people who have received the favor of the camp owner, as long as the camp owner is kind and persuasive, we will definitely let him take us to the deception gate, as for how to let them open the city gate, Ying has a plan in his heart."

Ma Qiang glanced at Duan Ying, who was curled up at the corner of his mouth, yes, believe you.

Ma Qiang asked Guo Jin to ask the captives, and really found someone in his family who had a black plague last year and was cured by Ma Qiang, Ma Qiang had a good reputation in Youzhou, and these people were appeased by Ma Qiang's kind words, promising not only not to account for their thieves, but also to allow them to join the Red Star Battalion, and soon gathered more than 20 people, Guo Jin recommended Lin Hu, a tun commander in his camp, saying that he was loyal and could be of great use, so Ma Qiang asked Lin Hu to lead the team and act according to the plan.
