Chapter 449: The War Ends
The war ended with the victory of the Qin army, the Donghu tribe was wiped out, and almost all the tribes became slaves of the Great Qin. The reinforcements were blocked by Wang Ben, and the Guishan reinforcements had not even arrived before the war was over.
Da Yue Shan Yu led the remnants of the Da Yue people to withdraw from the Hetao region, and in order to prevent the Great Qin from settling accounts after the autumn, they fled all the way north to the more remote north.
The Xiongnu completely surrendered to Daqin, and the Xiongnu sent all the wives and children of the patriarchs of the Xiongnu tribes to Yuecheng as protons, which can be regarded as completely relieving Li Chen. Although the Xiongnu's approach was shameful to the grassland peoples, the result was to allow the Xiongnu race to survive.
After more than a month, Xianyang, Afang Palace.
Li Chen's envoy was either someone else or Fusu, and in this battle, Fusu, as the prince, was just an ordinary middle-level officer in the Great Qin Army. As a prince, Fusu also experienced the cruelty and bloodiness of war.
The next day, the morning dynasty.
"Fusu Gongzi has arrived." With the long shouting and singing of the little eunuch, Fusu stepped into the main hall dressed as a warrior in armor.
At this time, Fusu completely lost the former submissiveness, but a heroic and heroic spirit. He exuded a heroic aura all over his body, and he was filled with the breath of an iron-blooded man.
"Father, Da Yue, Donghu, Xiongnu, or chase, or extinguish, or descend. After this battle, the entire Hetao Plain has been completely subsumed into our Great Qin. Fusu stood in the middle of the court, straightened his waist, and had pride in his tone that was difficult to hide.
"I've worked hard." The First Emperor nodded in satisfaction.
The first emperor is not only satisfied with the war situation, but also satisfied with Fusu, now Fusu has the necessary conditions to become a prince, Wenzhi martial arts This is the necessary conditions for the Great Qin Emperor, and only a qualified emperor can let the Great Qin I, II, Baishi, and Wanshi pass on.
"The sons are not bitter, but the soldiers at the border are suffering." Fusu said with a sad face, his eyes lowered, and he almost wanted to cry.
However, the tragic situation on the battlefield at the border pass, people like Fusu who came down from the battlefield knew it, but the civil and military officials in the court did not know it. The civil and military officials only thought that Fusu was politely shirking, so they echoed one after another: "Fusu Gongzi is benevolent and really virtuous." ”
"Your Majesty's eyes are full of candles, so that such a virtuous son can be selected."
Since Li Chen defeated Feng Qujian and Zhao Gao, I don't know who is behind the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, but on the surface, all of them are princelings. Of course, with the first emperor's ability to control the court, it is only a private statement that the princelings are not princelings.
Seeing the flattering appearance of everyone, Fusu knew in his heart that people who had not experienced the war could not understand the tragedy on the battlefield. The corpses like mountains, the pools of blood like the sea, seemed to them to be nothing more than a series of numbers on the fold.
Fusu's face was sad, and he said: "You know, although my Great Qin won the Hetao in this battle, what kind of heavy price I paid. In the two most tragic battles of this battle, the teacher led us and other 50,000 cavalry to raid the Dayue Royal Court. But on the way back, he was surrounded and intercepted by Da Yue with all the strength of the whole clan, and in this battle our army of 50,000 cavalry, more than 70,000 enemies were killed before and after, and only more than 5,000 soldiers survived. This battle can be said to be one in ten. ”
"However, this battle is not the most tragic. In order to attract the main forces of Da Yue and Donghu, Meng Shuai on the front was strong enough to mount an army of 100,000 with less than 40,000 troops. However, after the news of the raid on the Great Moon Royal Court spread, the Great Moon and the Donghu people on the front line of the Wind Wolf Valley launched a fierce attack on Meng Shuai. Our frontal soldiers resisted stubbornly under the leadership of Meng Shuai, and in the end, only about 800 people remained in the 40,000-strong army. ”
Fusu's tone was sad, and only those who had personally experienced that scene could understand Fusu's mood at this moment.
In Fusu's view, the greatest on the battlefield is this group of soldiers at the bottom, and it is precisely because they are not afraid of death that Daqin can expand its territory again and again. It was they who used their blood and flesh to open up a new world for Great Qin.
"Okay, that's right."
"This is my son, who is not greedy for merit or invites merit. This way of governing the world is that the people are the most important and the king is light. In the same way, this way of governing the army is also to put soldiers first, and will be lighter. The First Emperor looked at Fusu with a look of approval.
"Father, this is the teacher's excerpt." Fusu took out a fold from his cuff and handed it to the First Emperor.
The little eunuch took the fold in Fusu's hand and handed it to the First Emperor, who opened the fold, the beginning of which was Li Chen's work on the settlement of the casualties. It mentions the increase in the pension for the casualties of the soldiers, and the support for the wives and children of the fallen soldiers.
Later, Li Chen proposed to build a city in Donghu and Dayue, with the city as the center to radiate the territory that Dayue and Donghu had previously held, so as to strengthen the management of the Hetao area.
The First Emperor looked at the folding, printed his big seal, and said, "What Rong Luhou has played, I have been approved. ”
It was by virtue of its strong military strength that Great Qin was able to unify the six kingdoms, and the First Emperor had always attached great importance to his soldiers. Now that Great Qin is rich and rich, the first emperor naturally agrees to increase the compensation of soldiers' casualties. As for building a city on the grassland, this was originally one of the methods used by Great Qin to control the grassland. After Meng Tian occupied the Hetao side, Great Qin quickly established Yuecheng.
The news of the Qin army's victory soon spread throughout Xianyang, and the Hetao area, which was as stubborn as psoriasis, was finally eradicated and completely entered the bag of Great Qin. The Qin army was victorious, and the most excited people in the entire Xianyang City were those merchants. Great Qin conquered the Hetao, so for these people, it is equivalent to opening up a blank market. You must know that these businessmen in Xianyang have already made a lot of money in the Samhan area.
Xianyang City, Lijiazhuang.
Ying Yue was sitting in front of the dresser, she was just pregnant when Li Chen set out on the expedition, and now her belly was visibly bigger.
Ying Yue held a letter in her hand, and the crooked handwriting on the letter was already wet with tears.
Dear Xiao Yue'er,
When you received this letter, your mighty Xianggong had already punched the Dayue clan and kicked the Donghu clan, and there was not even a single race in the entire grassland that could speak loudly.
However, although I won this battle, I can't go back yet. As the saying goes, it is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country. Now the whole grassland is in shambles, and I need to take care of it before I can go back.
Yue'er, take good care of yourself, and take good care of our children. I will definitely go back before the baby is born, trust me.
Payment, your favorite Xiao Chenchen.
