Chapter 133: Stand Your Ground
There is a classic Roman proverb that naval battles can ruin your whole day! This sentence is also appropriate when applied to land warfare, when Yuan Shaojun appeared on the battlefield, the formation was carried out at noon, and Shen Shi was defeated, and now the sun has already set, and the Guandu camp is plunged into darkness, only a small torch dot shines in the night sky.
This Guandu battle is definitely worthy of the excitement of the Guandu battle in history! The Cao army defeated Yuan Shao's army three times as many as a few in the front with more than 35,000 people, and the number of beheadings and captures has not yet been calculated, but at least the chariot troops of the Yuan army are finished, and the Mojing fence and the rooks used for the siege are almost completely thrown on the battlefield and become the trophies of the Cao army, and the archers on it have not run away, and they are escorted down in despair.
However, the ugly side of the war is also shown, although the exhaustion of a day of fighting, but one by one Cao army cavalry, infantry still return to the battlefield with tired bodies, on the one hand, the corpses of their comrades, on the other side is more important! Rummage through the wealth of Yuan Jun's war dead!
Weapons, armor, iron, and everything you need to get back!
Wang Hou was guarding the edge of the trench, under his hands, hundreds of strong men were sweating profusely in the trench outside the camp with ropes, and the chariots that filled the trench were all dragged out.
However, these jobs obviously have no technical content, and Wang Hou is not careless, pinching the chin with a few mustaches, Wang Hou is still thinking about the last scene he saw just now.
are all narrow-minded and indecisive Yuan Shao, but the main advisers under Yuan Shao, most of the generals are almost loyal to his Yuan family, and in history, Guo Tu, trial matching, etc. were all killed in battle! It can be seen that Yuan Shao's character, but among these loyal ministers of the martyrs, there is not a guy named Xu You! Whether it is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" or the new history "Three Kingdoms", it was he who betrayed Yuan Shao's camp and betrayed Yuan Shao's grain storage location, Wuchao, which led to the defeat of the Hebei camp in the Guandu War and the annihilation of the whole army!
But in the telescope just now, this old boy desperately rescued Yuan Shao's strength, but it made Wang Hou mutter, in the end, people can't be disfigured! If you don't reach the conclusion of the coffin, you can't evaluate a person in vain, or there is something else hidden in it!
And although Yuan Shao was defeated today, this Guandu battle is far from over, and 20,000 people have been beheaded today, and Yuan Shao still has 90,000 people, minus the number of people killed and injured today, it is still three times that of Cao Jun! Moreover, the four states of Hebei behind Yuan Shao also continued to provide him with food and grass soldiers, and there was still a fight in this battle!
Another thing that made Wang Hou entangled was that Xu Yu needed to betray in history before he sent important information, Yuan Shaotun soldiers Wuchao, Wang Hou had already known about this in advance, and even when he was in Dongjun, he also went to the vicinity of Wuchao Lake to investigate, and had a general understanding of the local geographical environment.
If the information is revealed to Cao Cao now, what impact will it have on the Guandu War that is in full swing in front of him?
It's all unknown!
Just when Wang Hou was thinking about it, not far away, a burst of terrible screams suddenly came, which was mixed with fierce shouting and scolding, which suddenly interrupted Wang Hou's thoughts, and looked at him and raised his eyebrows, Zang Hong immediately coughed, led a few pro-soldiers to follow behind Wang Hou with halberds, and walked towards the sound from him.
Although the whole battlefield was filled with a smell of blood, but this place, the smell of blood was obviously stronger, not far from the main position, more than a hundred Cao soldiers were full of anger around there crackling and kicking something, on the ground, wet a large piece of dark liquid, a few newly cut off heads were lying there, and a man's sad cry was still there heartbreaking.
Follow the customs of the locals, and now Wang Hou is also a person with status, so he didn't have the recklessness to shout at you! is very reserved with his hands behind his back and his head high, and he has Zang Hong to go up and pull it in a rough voice.
"Hey! What are you doing? ”
"Back, back to General! These Hebei barbarians are too hateful! The brethren are avenging the robes! ”
Kill the captives! These guys are obviously not doing anything above board, and they were so frightened by Zang Hong's cold throat that Cao Juntun took the lead, and hurriedly turned around and hugged his fists and bowed heavily.
"The general spares his life! The little ones are also doing what they are told! The little ones shoot with their eyes closed, and there are old mothers and sick wives at home, and the little ones really don't want to die! ”
As soon as the words of the tun chief were finished, Yuan Bing, who was crying and crying with a blue nose and swollen face, was already crying with his bound hands behind his back, kowtowing like pounding garlic and begging for mercy, and in the light of the torches, it was obvious that his face was full of fear, and he was crying like a coward.
Not to mention, the matter is not over here, he has not finished begging for mercy, and Yuan Bing, who was kneeling on the ground, kicked him on the buttocks, kicking him and staggering in a pool of blood, while he kept paralyzing on the ground and kicking him, while the head of the Hebei archers was still angry and angry.
"Coward! Cowardice! The head has a scar the size of a bowl, and I knew that Lao Tzu had already cut you! ”
was kicked and rolled all over the ground, and the corners of Wang Hou's mouth twitched when he heard the mournful cry of a big man, but fortunately, this kung fu, seeing the lively Cao Bing, made a move, and directly dragged the two of them away together, and dragged them into the group of prisoners and kicked up in a circle of punches and kicks.
"My lord! This is not a matter of meddle! ”
Seeing that this Qu Cao soldier was all angry, it was estimated that under the rain of arrows this time, they were not good dead and wounded, next to Wang Hou's side, Zang Hong hesitated to hug his fists.
But looking at the dozen or so Yuan Jun screaming in the crowd, Wang Hou narrowed his eyes with interest, not that his sympathy was overflowing, what kind of virgin he was, it was! Cowards, sometimes a resource!
"Stop!"
Suddenly, there was a throat, so that the Cao soldiers who were committing murder and abuse were all stiff, watching Wang Hou swaying under the torch, shaking and walking over, the tun chief who took the lead in beating and killing people once again hugged his fist angrily, gritted his teeth and threatened viciously.
"This envoy, this is a blood feud between my Qu and these Hebei barbarians, please don't interfere! Otherwise, it will ruin your face, and don't blame the little ones for being rude! ”
"How the fuck do you dare to talk to my lord like that!"
I don't want to meddle, but I can't bear it! Hum pulled out the knife all of a sudden, Zang Hong raised his face to the face of the Cao Bingtun chief, the sharp blade rested directly on his neck, and his eyes stared at him like murder. But the knives were all on his neck, but the tun chief still stiffened his neck, staring at him, whether it was killing Cao Bing or Wang Hou's personal guards, they all put their hands on the blade, seeing that the atmosphere was tense and sparkling, suddenly Wang Hou waved his hand lightly.
"Zang Hong, stand down!"
Very bossy, looking at the stiff neck, a head taller than himself, Wang Houshu stretched out three fingers, and said slowly.
"You don't have a single soldier who died in battle, and your family members can go to my Wang Hou's mansion to receive three silk horses and three strings! Or you can cut them too! ”
These words obviously made Natun Chang stunned, his face was tangled as if he was constipated, and he struggled for a few minutes, but he was helpless or defeated by the heavy reality, and he weakly clenched his fists and bowed his head.
"Does it matter if you speak?"
"Although my reputation for this night fragrance cangcao is not good, it seems that there is no time when speaking does not count! After this battle, even if you take the roster and go to my house to redeem it, if I break my promise and get fat, you can call me Wang Hou a liar on the street! ”
"Well, in that case, it's a deal!"
looked at Wang Hou's slow and leisurely appearance, and finally, the iron man also lowered his head, hugged his fists helplessly, and immediately turned around and followed his subordinates and roared loudly: "Listen to my orders!" Back to camp! ”
A group of Cao Jun was unwilling, and stared at the Hebei archers who were beaten on the ground, spitting and slowly returning to the Guandu camp, but Wang Hou's head was ruined, and a group of Hebei soldiers still didn't appreciate it.
"Where is the little fucking pretend, there is a kind, cut Lao Tzu now, otherwise one day it will fall into the hands of Lao Tzu, and you will be better off than dead!"
"What the fuck ......"
"Come on, bring these people back and put them in a prisoner of war camp!"
Wang Hou spoke again, and several pro-soldiers carried them one by one, dragging these archers with blue noses, swollen faces and cramps also walked to the camp, and froze there for a while, Zang Hong turned around and complained with his fists in a daze.
"Lord, why bother saving this group of white-eyed wolves?"
"Yuan Shao is so popular with the military!"
didn't pay attention to him for the first time, Wang Hou first frowned, hummed worriedly, and then his eyes fell on the few captives who were being escorted farther and farther away, and a sinister smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
"Don't underestimate this group of white-eyed wolves, that cowardly bag just now, if you use it well, it's even comparable to thousands of cavalry!"
…………
After cleaning the battlefield for most of the night, the results of the first fierce battle between the Hebei forces and the Central Plains group, Yuan Shao, a wealthy clan like Yuan Shao and a wealthy landlord like Cao Cao, were finally counted, and the corpses left on the battlefield were more than 5,000 bodies, counting more than 6,800 prisoners, and the loss was calculated according to four times the number of dead in the cold weapon era, Yuan Shao lost at least 22,300 men and horses, and as for the ordnance materials, there were countless people.
Can kill 3,000 people, self-damage 800, in the afternoon under the attack of Yuan Jun wave after wave like a rising tide, Cao Jun also killed more than 1,100 people, wounded 3,070, no wonder the Cao army encountered yesterday was so angry that they were distorted, and most of the Cao army's casualties were due to these Hebei archers.
It sounds like this loss figure is much smaller than Yuan Shaojun's losses, but the injuries here are all wounded to a certain extent, and the wounded who have lost their combat effectiveness have lost a full one-seventh, which is enough for Cao Jun, who is inferior in numbers, to be regarded as a wounded muscle.
Moreover, the scout cavalry that was scattered last night also brought back the latest information of the Hebei Army, and retreated thirty miles after defeat, Yuan Shao regrouped, gathered the scattered troops, and re-set up camp, and after thirty miles, the two largest military groups in the Central Plains were eyeing each other near Jishui Guandu.
In terms of the situation, Cao Jun is still at a disadvantage, not to mention that there are many soldiers and few soldiers, behind Yuan Shao is the prairie, the Huns at this time have declined, the Xianbei and Wuhuan people have not been able to rise, and Yuan Shao's old nest Yecheng is still in Jizhou, thousands of miles, he is safe and sound in the rear.
But Xu Du, to the south is Zhang Xiu, who has just surrendered, and the ambitious Liu Biao, and after Yuan Shu vomited blood and died, he also left a large number of warlord generals, especially Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, as the leader, for the fat of the Central Plains, he is also eyeing the tiger, Cao Cao needs to worry much more than Yuan Shao.
However, under Yuan Shao's aggressive 110,000-strong army, Cao Cao still stood on his feet and had the capital to continue to fight against Yuan Shao.
And compared to Yuan Shao, he still has a good housekeeper!
The wounded soldiers who had just been removed from the battlefield last night were immediately transferred to Zhongmu's rear army camp, Wang Hou was really selfless, his guest at home, the old god Yu Ji, and a group of apprentices were fooled by him to become military doctors, and even Lu Ji was mobilized into battle! In the middle of the tents, a boiling cauldron kept steaming, tugging at the sleeves, with crystal sweat on the doors, holding the sleeves, Lu Ji, who was busy and turning, kept commanding the people in the back camp.
"Follow the master's orders! All silk cloths used for bandaging must be boiled in boiling water! ”
"The firewood is burning! It is a must to keep warm inside the tent! Liu Jia, Zhang Bing, you must keep an eye on Yu Ji Yu Old Immortal, the hot water must not be cut off! A basin is brought out, and a basin is immediately brought in for me! These are human lives! ”
is worthy of being the eldest lady of the Lu Mansion, when Lu Bu was busy with the war, Lu Ji also had to help Mrs. Ren take care of the Lu Mansion, with the accumulation of these experiences, in her beautiful voice, thousands of people in a wounded battalion were commanded by her in an orderly manner!
However, in the era of cold weapons, 80% of the casualties occurred after the war, there were no antibiotics in this era, if it was summer, two out of ten wounded soldiers could escape the infection and survive, it would be considered God bless, even if it was late autumn, even if Lu Ji did his best, but the rescue failed, and the wounded soldiers who died on the hospital bed after hemorrhage or infection and suppuration were still carried out one by one, and many could not even keep up with the speed of digging pits and burying them.
After all, it was a young lady and a little girl, and the successive rescue failures caused extra psychological pressure to Lu Ji, and seeing that a tent was emptied, the beads of sweat on her forehead were already rolling like a stream, and she anxiously grabbed a patrolling soldier, Lu Ji ordered anxiously and helplessly.
"Go find the master and come back! In this back camp, the concubine body is really a little unbearable! ”
"Yes! Madam! ”
With a loud promise, the pro-soldier turned around and ran, running straight to Zhongmu County.
At this time, the entire Zhongmu county was completely emptied, more than 20,000 Zhongmu residents were moved to the south, the county government in the city was used as a granary, hoarding the grain that Wang Hou had managed to pull in Puyang, and the two blocks in the west of the city were blocked with wood and stones, as a prisoner of war camp, and the more than 3,100 Hebei Yuan troops captured in the Battle of White Horse were all imprisoned here, and the more than 1,000 Yuan troops who were captured yesterday were also escorted in one after another.
Holding the binoculars, Wang Hou looked down with deep eyes, and beside him, the coward who was redeemed by him on the battlefield yesterday was trembling and kneeling on the ground.
