761. Post-war summary

On the barren grassland, the corpses that were once scattered all over the place have been piled up.

In this era, it was not easy to excavate mineral resources, whether it was the Dali Forbidden Army or the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, those who were killed in battle had their armor stripped off, and even the generals were no exception.

All kinds of armor, blades, ordnance, etc., were also piled up.

It is difficult to make special exceptions in the war, even in the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty, the remains of the dead generals cannot be transported back to the Great Song Dynasty.

Manpower is limited to reduce unnecessary trouble, which has been the norm in the Great Song Dynasty forbidden army.

Only the commander of the thousand, that is, the general above the rank of the chief and deputy regiment of the Great Song Dynasty, can be wrapped in an urn after the body is cremated. Then he was covered with the national flag and brought back to the Great Song Dynasty with the army.

Ordinary soldiers can only be cremated in piles on the spot, which is no different from the Dali Forbidden Army.

All they could bring back was their nameplates.

If after returning to the Song Dynasty, a family member comes to claim it, then these nameplates will be returned to them and a mound will be erected.

If there is no family to claim it, it can only be left in the warehouse of the military region. It may not make much sense, but at least it can prove that this person existed in the army.

They gave their lives for the future of the Great Song Dynasty.

As the sky grew brighter, the flames in the mansion gradually went out. And in the wilderness outside the city, there were many piles of flames blazing.

I don't know how many people wept silently, and I don't know how many people had red eyes.

Some robes have been friends with them for many years, and this time they are out of the Great Song Dynasty, but they can't go back at the same time. This is a great sorrow.

The feelings established in the army are very deep, and some people feel like brothers with each other. Before, the war was not over, and there was not much to take care of, but now, some people are on the verge of collapse.

Zhang Jue stayed in the tent, and soldiers kept coming to report the losses of each regiment.

There are people from the logistics department in the army who stay in the tent and count.

How many Dali forbidden troops were killed, no one counted. But it's probably calculated.

There are more than 50,000 forbidden troops in the national capital, and more than 20,000 guards in the good house. That's about 80,000 in total, and the number of survivors should be no more than a thousand.

This is almost equivalent to total annihilation.

In this battle, the total number of Dali forbidden troops destroyed by the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army was already more than 100,000.

This is naturally a brilliant result.

Maybe if you fight like this a few more times, there will be no more soldiers and horses available in Dali. But that's not realistic.

Although the Great Song Dynasty is thriving, its national strength is still weak after all, and it is impossible to support several such wars. After all, there is still a Yuan Dynasty in the north.

If he could fight, Zhao Dongting would not just let Zhang Jue and them attack the city without seizing the territory. Now the Great Song Dynasty no longer has much energy to consolidate the new territory.

The Great Song Dynasty also needs to continue to accumulate strength.

When the casualties of each regiment were reported, the non-commissioned officers of the logistics department summarized and reported to Zhang Jue.

Zhang Jue, Zhang Hongwei, Miao Cheng and others in the tent finally showed a little smile on their faces.

The loss of this battle was smaller than Zhang Hongwei and others had expected.

The entire Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, excluding the rear army that Miao Cheng had not yet arrived here, had a total of about 40,000 soldiers participating in this battle. And the dead turned out to be nearly 10,000.

Among them, the Flying Army suffered the heaviest losses, with nearly 4,000 of them.

The casualties of the rest of the armies were not much. It can even be said that there are surprisingly few.

The two special forces and the 4,000 forbidden troops led by Miao Cheng turned the whole tide of the battle, and they were menacing, opening and closing, and there were only a few hundred dead soldiers.

Even he himself was surprised, and at this time he blinked his eyes and asked the general of the logistics department: Is it a statistical error? Our casualties, are they really so small?

The general of the logistics department smiled slightly: I have calculated it several times, and it is indeed so correct.

Hehe.

Zhang Jue suddenly laughed out loud and said: Actually, this kind of loss is not unexpected. Even, it is necessary to slightly make the estimate of the marshal.

Everyone looked at him with surprise, even Liu Zhuwen.

Marshal Zhang had already predicted that there would not be too many casualties?

How did he estimate it?

At that time, the Great Song Forbidden Army was indeed slightly suppressed by the Dali Forbidden Army for about half an hour. It stands to reason that during that time alone, the casualties should be not small.

You haven't fully realized how powerful this new type of armor developed by the emperor is.

Zhang Jue smiled and shook his head, and continued: When this battle just began, our army was fierce and fierce, and the Dali Forbidden Army paid a great price just by using firearms such as dragon guns and grenadiers to bombard the sky and thunder. You should all have appeared, after a long battle, our army is a little tired, but this commander has not made any moves to inspire the army. Ben Shuai deliberately wanted to let the Dali forbidden army see hope, so that they could hold on until Commander Miao led the army to arrive. We fought so hard that they saw no hope, and they retreated quickly, and they could not be annihilated.

Zhang Hongwei looked puzzled, Marshal, we can see this now. But during that time, how did we suffer such small casualties?

Hehe.

Zhang Jue smiled again, my Great Song Forbidden Army has been trained for a long time, and most of them are veterans. There is a degree of advance and retreat, and when it is suppressed, it does not panic, it seems to be slowly suppressed, but in fact, the combat effectiveness is still preserved. We are short of ammunition, why not Dali?

As he spoke, there was a bit of sneer in his eyes, just with their swords, guns and arrows, how many of our soldiers can they kill?

The entire tent was stunned.

Oh, yes!

Although the ammunition was exhausted before, the army was tired, and was pressed forward by the Dali forbidden army, but the brothers under his command seemed to be really in chaos, and they always maintained a general formation.

Those guys in Dali don't have much thunder anymore, and with their cold weapons alone, they really can't easily kill the Great Song soldiers who are wrapped in new steel armor.

Looking back now, it seems that when the two sides were fiercely hedged before, there were more soldiers killed in battle.

As for the Monkey Army in the sky.

Those guys were blocked by the Flying Army, and they were blown up by the skyrocketing artillery array, and they didn't seem to be able to drop many thunders.

Thinking about it, more and more people began to grin.

And Zhang Jue said at this time: But don't be proud. In this battle, we seem to have won a big victory, but in fact it is not a big victory

He looked around at the people in the tent, the emperor implemented the elite soldier system, and all of our Great Song Dynasty forbidden troops were selected from the strict selection of the army from all over the country. The cost of food and clothing for each forbidden army is much more than that of the Xiang army, and it is also much more than that of these Dali forbidden troops. Counting the Divine Dragon, Armor, Thunder Blade, etc., the imperial court's investment in each soldier of the forbidden army is afraid that it is enough for Dali to raise five forbidden troops. This time, although we destroyed more than 100,000 forbidden troops in Dali, our loss was close to 20,000. In this way, we don't actually take too much advantage.

Everyone in the tent was slightly moved.

Zhang Jue is not wrong at all, the Great Song Forbidden Army is powerful, but the cost of training these soldiers is far from being comparable to those Dali Forbidden Army.

To put it bluntly, the Great Song Forbidden Army was able to have such a strong combat effectiveness, and it was all piled up with money.

Every forbidden army is a baby bump!

Thinking about it this way, nearly 20,000 battle losses were lost in the battle, which is really heart-wrenching.

How many forbidden troops are there in the Great Song Dynasty?

How many are there in the Zhennan Military Region?

If the emperor does not implement the policy of elite soldiers, with the same price of training 20,000 forbidden troops, maybe more than 100,000 soldiers can be trained.

Of course, the combat effectiveness is certainly not comparable.

In the tent, Liu Zhuwen suddenly sighed with emotion, the emperor is really far-sighted

Naturally, the policy of elite troops has advantages.

Although the cost of training more than 200,000 forbidden troops is enough to train more than one million soldiers like the Dali forbidden army, and the entire combat effectiveness may not be much different. However, if more than 800,000 soldiers are recruited in the army, it is equivalent to more than 800,000 ordinary people in the people.

In this era, the population is not large, and every additional soldier is equivalent to a small consumption. And one more people is equal to one more laborer.

Isn't labor force productivity these days?

Zhang Jue patted the case table lightly and said: Tell me to go down and prepare to pull out the camp! When the fallen soldiers can be cremated, we will drive back to the court.

Liu Zhuwen and the others nodded one after another, and then walked towards the outside of the tent.

The footsteps, by and large, are still relaxed.

It's habitual thinking.

In this era, at a cost of less than 20,000, the enemy army was destroyed by more than 100,000 troops, and three large cities were destroyed in a row, no matter how you look at it, it was a great victory.
