Chapter 1176: They are of great use

The battle was extremely fierce.

The battle was unusually short.

Before and after, but it lasted for about half an hour, and the winner was already decided.

But the corpses lying on the battlefield and those who are alive have seen what it means to fight to the death.

Liu Buwu paid the price of more than 300 dead and seriously wounded, and annihilated all the logistics baggage teams of the Tang Army on the opposite side, except for the dead and wounded, there were less than 30 people captured by him, and they were basically women.

In fact, as soon as the battle began, Liu Buwu regretted it.

He thought that this was just an ordinary logistics baggage officer of the Northern Tang Army, especially when he saw that there were nearly 100 people in special white clothes in the opposite team, he was even more natural.

Because the person wearing this costume is a unique formation in the Northern Tang Army, a field medical battalion.

Liu Buwu thought that this team was escorting a medical battalion, and brought some grain and grass with him, but he didn't expect that this team actually had so many grenades and fierce fire bombs. You just need to follow from afar, find the right opportunity, a surprise attack, and what problems will be solved.

But in the end, it turned into a storm.

When the first batch of more than 100 cavalry attacking suffered a big loss by surprise, it was impossible for Liu Buwu to retreat.

The soldiers on the opposite side are actually not very good in combat skills, and even most of them can have combat skills, but their courage is impressive.

Liu Buwu watched as the men rushed out from behind the rudimentary bunker with grenades lit with fuses, shouting slogans or silently rushing towards the galloping horses.

These people, of course, died immediately.

But the grenade in their hands also exploded.

What's even more terrifying is that many people strung together the leads of multiple grenades, ignited them and rushed out, and the explosion of such a cluster grenade was extremely terrifying, affecting a radius of more than ten zhang.

When the first horse rushed into this improvised defensive circle, the battle was over. The moment this Liu cavalry fell, more cavalry rushed in through the hole he had torn open.

Once the two sides were wrapped together, the elite well-trained team immediately gained an overwhelming advantage, and the battle turned into a slaughter.

Except for the occasional self-detonation by Northern Tang soldiers, they basically had no room for resistance.

In terms of the results of the battle, Liu Buwu naturally won a great victory, not only annihilating all the Northern Tang troops in front of him, but also capturing boxes of grenades and fierce fire bombs.

But judging from his own losses, Liu Buwu felt that he had failed again.

His right army, with a total of only 2,000 cavalry, lost more than 300 people in the face of a group of logistics soldiers from the Northern Tang Dynasty. Those who were injured had basically no chance of surviving.

Some of them looked like they had no scars on the surface, but as they vomited blood, it was clear that their internal organs had been badly damaged. Liu Buwu had seen a lot of heavy injuries like this in previous battles, which were shocked by the shock wave generated by the explosion of a weapon like a grenade, and compared with external injuries, such injuries made his doctors helpless, and they could only watch these people die in pain.

There are also some who were burned by the fierce fire oil, and the ones who survived were only 12 out of 10 who were extremely lucky, looking at those injured subordinates who were wailing in pain, Liu Buwu's heart was a pang of irritation.

If there is a regret medicine, he wants to eat a big bowl at this time.

No wonder my father said that he was far from being as good as Tengjian. If it was Tengjian, he would not have rushed up so recklessly.

A woman's scream was heard in his ears, and Liu Buwu turned around and saw a soldier dragging a female doctor in his hand, but his other hand was reaching into the other person's clothes. The female doctor struggled desperately, screaming, but in the opponent's iron pincer-like hands, there was no room for resistance.

Liu Buwu was furious, rushed over in a few steps, raised the horse whip in his hand, and whipped it towards the soldier without a head.

"Bastard, are you a sperm worm?"

The soldier who had been whipped a few times wilted and left the female doctor, who fell into the mud, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and curled up in a ball, but she still raised her head and looked at Liu Buwu who had just saved her with hatred.

"I know you're a doctor." Liu Buwu pointed to the wounded soldiers not far away: "Can you treat them?" ”

The female doctor looked at him, and suddenly opened her mouth and spewed a mouthful of spit at Liu Buwu.

Liu Buwu turned sideways to avoid it, stopped the soldiers around him who were angrily trying to draw their knives and slash the female doctor, and said, "Look, you still have injuries that are not dead." I promise you to save one of us, and I will allow you to save one of your own. How does this deal work? ”

The female doctor froze.

"Tell your companions, if you promise, I won't kill these wounded Northern Tang soldiers." Liu Buwu said.

The female physician pondered for a moment, struggled to her feet, and walked over to her bound companion.

"The general is clever." After a while, seeing that the captured doctors began to treat the wounded on both sides, Liu Buwu's personal soldiers complimented: "These doctors of the Northern Tang Dynasty are clever, this time, there are many brothers who can pick up a life from the King of Yama, and when the treatment is over, we will cut these Northern Tang people with a knife to avenge the brothers who died." ”

Liu Buwu's eyes rolled: "Liu is a man who speaks, saying that if he wants to release these wounded soldiers, he will release these wounded soldiers." Do you fart when I speak? ”

The soldiers were stunned, blinking their eyes and unable to speak.

"When they're done, we'll set out for camp." Liu Buwu said: "These doctors are all taken away, and these wounded soldiers in the Northern Tang Dynasty don't have to pay attention to it." I will let them go when I say I will do it, but I am not obligated to take care of them. ”

Only then did the soldiers react, in such weather, these people were so seriously injured, they stayed in place, and within one night, they all froze to death, and the emotional general did not want to let these people go.

"General, these doctors are very strong-tempered, but I'm afraid that they will not be easy to tame!"

Liu Buwu sneered: "No matter how tough they are, they are just some women." It doesn't matter if it's hard to tame now, when we get away from this place, to the far south, to Nanzhao, Cochin, Champong, and other places, what else can they do? I heard that those places are not yet civilized, they are smoky places, and these female doctors will be of great use to us at that time. ”

The pro-soldiers nodded again and again: "The general is far-sighted." ”

"Less sycophancy. These female doctors, you personally bring someone to keep an eye on me. Don't let some bastards have a chance to bully them, these people are our precious assets. Liu Buwu said: "Tell the brothers, if you want other women, I will give them to someone, but these people, no, if they don't abide by the rules and disciplines, don't blame me for military law." ”

"Got it." Pro-soldier road. "Keep these women all bearded and full-tailed."

Liu Buwu sighed: "There are too few doctors in our country, these people are of great use to us, and besides, didn't they all say that the hearts of doctors and parents and those who study medicine are very soft." We've traveled thousands of miles along the way, and we can always get these people to work for us. I don't know when these people will save your life! We are not afraid of death or blood, but the disease is coming, and it is not something that courage can solve. ”

Because the wounded on both sides had to be treated, it dragged on until it was almost dark, and finally those who could still be saved were treated with the most preliminary treatment, and in this process, many people had already died in pain.

Dozens of wounded people from the Northern Tang Dynasty were gathered together, and the weeping female doctors lit a fire in their midst, and then they were forcibly mounted on war horses by Liu's soldiers, and then the whole team pulled out of the camp and headed towards Zhuzhou.

Zhuzhou, Ren Xiaonian did not stay here for too long, after a little tidying up and stationing, his department was divided into three, Ren Xiaonian was the Chinese army, Liu Yuan was the left army, Qin Kuan was the right army, three arrows were fired together, and they went straight to Xiangtan. And those who remained in Zhuzhou were left with only about 1,000 logistics baggage troops and young men who were temporarily recruited and organized in Zhuzhou.

Tengjian's department has arrived near Xiangtan, and according to the previous plan, the vanguard led by Liu Chen should attack Xiangtan first. Then he led the elite troops and dealt a fatal blow to the opponent.

But this time, Teng Jian felt that it would not be so easy, after all, the garrison general in Xiangtan was Ding Hao, the second son of Ding Taiyi, and the soldiers guarding here were also the elite of the Hunan army.

This battle is not easy to fight.

Or they just hit a dozen, and after symbolically completing the task, they immediately retreated and handed over this hard bone to the Tang army to gnaw on themselves.

This is what he said before he left, when Liu Xinda gave a face-to-face lecture.

Since it was only a symbolic attack, Teng Jian didn't bother to organize everyone to discuss how to attack. After all, now, it is extremely important for him to preserve his strength. When I got to these places like Nanzhao Jiaozhi, I didn't have the strength in my hands, and everything I said was in vain.

If you want to have a piece of heaven and earth where you are, and you haven't always been a vassal who has been called by Liu Xinda, then you must have your own strength in your hands.

The left army in his hand, after non-stop fighting and non-stop blood sucking, is now sure that Teng Jian can master half of the number, and when the time comes, the rest will be divided by means, co-opted, or disposed of.

There was a sound of horses' hooves, and a messenger hurried in.

"General Teng, General Liu's urgent order!" The messenger rolled over and dismounted, and presented the letter with both hands.

Tearing open the letter and skimming it roughly, Teng Jian's face has changed greatly.

"What's going on?" He looked at the messenger and asked sharply.

The messenger was a little puzzled, looked at Teng Jian and said, "General Teng, I don't know, General Liu only said to act immediately according to this order." ”

Teng Jian took a deep breath and asked, "Where is General Liu Chen?" ”

"The messengers have set out together, and they should be here now!" The messenger replied.

Tengjian's hand hung limply.
