Chapter 94: Aftermath

With the passage of time, the officers and soldiers of the battalions, capitals, and teams under the Longqi Army returned one after another, and basically lost more than half of them, and some were even wiped out.

When he saw Guo Rong returning, Liu Chengyou breathed a sigh of relief. However, he only led less than 200 soldiers of the first battalion of the First Army, and the battalion commander died in the chaos, and he took over and survived in the final chaos.

With Guo Rong, there are more than 1,000 Jin soldiers, and some Ding Zhuang, it seems that Guo Rong is well aware of Liu Chengyou's intentions, and he has not received an order, and the matter of recruiting Jin soldiers has already been done in advance.

"Your Highness!" Guo Rong was full of embarrassment, and saluted Liu Chengyou, his voice was a little hoarse, and he shouted at night when he thought about it.

"It's not hurt, is it?" Liu Chengyou looked around at Guo Rong and asked.

Liu Chengyou has basically restrained the emotions that have been released since last night, and his expression is as calm as usual, but the concern in his tone is overflowing.

"Your Highness Xie cares!" Guo Rong responded, then pointed to the Jin soldiers who came with him, and said in a low voice: "These soldiers are the elite of the Shijin Forbidden Army, and their combat effectiveness is good. They have a small relative who is with the army, and most of them are scattered on the battlefield, and if they can find them, they can take their hearts. On the battlefield, there should still be a lot of scattered Jin soldiers......"

Hearing this, Liu Chengyou also replied in a low voice: "Luo Yanpu has already collected some of it, and I have also sent someone to appease him." ”

"Your Highness is wise!" It is very rare that Guo Rong even said a compliment: "When the last general returns, I see that there are many Yan troops who are also cleaning up the battlefield, Your Highness must be careful!" ”

"There is no need to worry about it, Gu has reached an agreement with the generals of the Yan army, and they have all expressed their obedience!" Liu Chengyou said.

Guo Rong thought for a while and said: "The foundation of the Yan soldiers is mostly in Youyan and Liaodong, and it is easy to receive, but it is difficult to serve. However, now it is rootless, with nothing to rely on, but it is still easy to grasp. However, Your Highness must think about it early! ”

"I know this matter in my heart, and I will deal with it in the future!" After thinking about it for a while, Liu Chengyou nodded, and then said.

Saying that, Liu Chengyou summoned Ma Quanyi and Murong Yanzhao and put them in charge of placing those Jin soldiers.

After that, Liu Chengyou looked at a middle-aged man standing next to Guo Rong: "Who is this?" ”

He was a burly man, tall and long, with a long beard, quite magnanimous, but he looked weak at the moment, and he was simply draped in a long robe, with many scars that could not be concealed, not like a battlefield wound, but more like a prisoner who had just been imprisoned.

"Your Highness, this is the original Cizhou Thorn History, Li Hub, Li Weizhen Gong." Hearing this, Guo Rong immediately introduced: "Previously, he helped Liang Hui, the handsome commander of Cizhou, to go south to fight against the Khitan, and when Emperor Liao passed Fuyang, he denounced the villain, was arrested and imprisoned, tortured several times, scarred, and unyielding. And this night, in the chaotic army, he was rescued by the righteous and encountered the last general. The appeasement of the Jin army also helped him. ”

looked at Li Hub a little unexpectedly, no matter what he thought in his heart, he maintained his demeanor on his face, and arched his hand towards him: "It turned out that Li Yuanjun was in person, Lonely, this is polite." The public name has long been heard, and I yearn for it! ”

"The prestige of His Royal Highness is also like thunder below, I can see it today, sure enough, the young hero, the dragon posture and phoenix bones, the watch of heaven and man!" Li Hub looked very calm, probably from the heart, obviously it was a flattery, but it didn't make Liu Chengyou feel a little flattery.

After a while, Liu Chengyou immediately asked Li Chongju to arrange for the two to rest, but he could see that Guo Rong and Li Hub were not in good condition, Li Hub was still seriously injured, and he was almost holding on, and what he needed most at the moment was to have a good rest.

And Liu Chengyou, although he constantly has sleepiness and fatigue attacking him, but with the good news from all sides, he has always maintained a faint excitement.

It didn't take long for Liu Chengyou to silently worry about Xiang Xun in his heart also returned, and together with the few second and third armies, he immediately led people to meet him, Liu Chengyou has always remembered the situation of the two armies, and in the final charge, it was completely at the expense of casualties and fighting for his life before he had to break into the Liao camp and become the last straw that crushed the Khitan Chinese army......

You don't need to look closely to see that the situation of these two armies is very bad, there are many wounded soldiers, and almost everyone has wounds on their bodies. beckoned someone to settle and asked briefly, which made Liu Chengyou's mood plummet.

The soldiers who rushed to the camp with the two commanders last night suffered six or seven percent of the casualties, and the rest, even if you add the scattered soldiers of the two armies gathered on Liu Chengyou's side, I am afraid that the total will be more than 1,000 yuan.

You must know that since the south, the Longqi Army has expanded several times, and the strength of the second and third armies has exceeded 3,000.

After the defeat of the Liao army, under the spread of the chaotic battle, the soldiers were also scattered. Commanding Sun, he did his best to gather some of his brothers and fight his way to the south. Xiang Xun's eyes were a little red, and he said to Liu Chengyou: "The commander of the Third Army, when attacking the village, took the lead and died for the flow of vectors through the heart, and only found his body in the corpse pile after dawn. ”

"Commander Sun, holding the knife in front, beheaded more than 20 Khitan Hulu, slashed the knife to the blade, and was wounded several times until he fell unconscious. Before losing consciousness, he still shouted 'kill Hu'. His nephew and grandson Han led his subordinates to carry several times the enemy, was stabbed in the lower abdomen, his stomach rotted and his intestines came out, and he beheaded a Khitan general in battle, and finally killed him with random arrows......"

After listening to Xiang Xun's report, Liu Chengyou was silent, the kind of self-contained.

For a long time, the only army that Liu Chengyou regarded as his confidant was the First Army formed by Ma Quanyi, and the First Army, which has undertaken various tasks since going south, has never disappointed him.

But in this battle, the performance of the second and third armies was really beyond his expectations. And the two commanders who have never been looked down upon by him, and because of their complaints and even confrontations and doubts from time to time, which caused Liu Chengyou to be disgusted, also refreshed Liu Chengyou's senses for the first time.

In fact, since last night when Sun Li led people to carry out his order without hesitation, he was already very surprised in his heart. As for his nephew Han, he was punished for competing with Yang Ye and was blacklisted by Liu Chengyou, but on the battlefield, in the most difficult moment, he was as brave as he was.

Thinking of these two uncles and nephews, one dead and one seriously injured, a trace of complicated feelings came to my heart. Liu Chengyou couldn't help but recall that when he was rectifying the Longqi Army, Liu Zhiyuan mentioned it to him. On the battlefield, some veterans can give their lives to him......

Liu suppressed the little wave in his heart, Liu Chengyou slowly walked to Sun Li, who was still lying on the stretcher in a coma, stared at the pale face stained with blood, stared at it for a long time, took a deep breath, Liu Chengyou raised his finger and sternly ordered: "Certainly, you must save Commander Sun!" ”

"Order, find out the bodies of all the fallen soldiers!" After looking south again with his back hand and staring for a while, Liu Chengyou raised his hand and commanded solemnly.

They were disturbed and tossed for a long time before they sorted out the chaotic scene. The camp in the north also expanded, even touching a large area of dense forest in the northwest of Luancheng. In the huge camp, there are many pictures of relatives hugging each other and crying, but more often than not, life and death are parting......

In the process of cleaning up the battlefield, there were also waves again, whether it was Yan soldiers, Jin soldiers, or those laborers, there were fights and fights. After all, the Khitan people left too much money behind, just stand on the river beach, from south to north, run a few steps casually, and you can always find something good.

Fortunately, Liu Chengyou had foreseen it and informed those generals in advance, and while sending troops to suppress it, he also kept announcing promises to resolve the commotion.

Of course, while he was busy, Liu Chengyou still did not forget to send Han Tong, who had a rest, to lead his troops north to investigate the situation of the Liao army. Although it is unlikely, we have to beware of its killing, after all, there are quite a few Khitan troops retreating north.

Liu Chengyou kept hinting to himself that he must not get carried away.
