XLVIII. Accumulated dissatisfaction
War is always an alternative destruction of nature by human beings.
Even after a few hours, the smoke left on the battlefield was still filling, the dust was wafting all over the ground, and the choking smell of charcoal filled the air.
With a full stomach, the cold wind blows with a faint smell of blood.
Not long ago, the joy generated by the victory had quietly dissipated in Gongsun Zhan's heart.
Strictly speaking, he is not a person who is easily sad, but for no reason and inexplicably, Gongsun Chan suddenly wanted to go and walk alone.
Without informing others, he was so alone, walking on the vine grass, surrounded by busy figures.
It was the soldiers under his command, busy collecting corpses and cleaning up the battlefield.
According to the usual practice, it should have been cleaned up a long time ago, but it was only because of a carnival that it was postponed to the present.
After complying with Gongsun Zhan's order, Jiang Pu personally led more than 1,000 soldiers all over the mountains to collect and classify the corpses.
The corpses of the soldiers in Youzhou were naturally brought back, and after they were told to their families, they would be buried by themselves, as for the corpses of those Wuhuan and Xianbei soldiers...
Hehe...
These warriors can resist the urge to whip the corpse, and it is good not to slash it twice, and you want them to bury those alien enemies?
Think beautifully!
At least the army under Gongsun Chan did not have such a high consciousness.
There will never be!
"My lord." After walking casually for a while, Gongsun Chan heard a familiar call behind him and turned around.
"It's Zihua!" Gongsun Chan put away his emotions, twisted his forehead, and regained his calm and calm in his eyes under the sword eyebrows.
As the master of the people, he is unwilling to let his subordinates see his depressed side.
"What? Zihua, did you wake up so early? Gongsun Chan squeezed out a smile, for Yan Gang, the most important general under his command, he always smiled.
"Although this battle was a big victory for our army, the follow-up treatment still needs to be done by the last general, who woke up early in the morning and had nothing to do, and the last general came here to supervise."
Yan Gang also smiled.
I have to say that this person can indeed be regarded as a number of famous generals under Gongsun Zhan.
At the end of the battle, when everyone relaxed and drank and rejoiced, he still remembered to be vigilant, arranged for the soldiers to camp on the spot, set up antlers, and instructed his lieutenants to pay attention to the collection of stragglers.
Not to mention, not long after the camp, the light cavalry troops that had been defeated and scattered before fled back one after another, and Gongsun Zhan, who had suffered a lot of losses in this battle, made up for hundreds of soldiers.
"Okay, worthy of being the lieutenant general of our army, Zihua is tired." Gongsun Chan smiled and complimented, patted Yan Gang's shoulder encouragingly, and asked instead.
"Walk with me?"
"No, my lord, please." Yan Gang should be holding his fists, he has always been fierce in the army, but at this time, in front of Gongsun Zhan, he is extremely obedient and respectful.
So, the two of them continued to move forward, and Yan Gang introduced the military situation to Gongsun Chan from time to time along the way.
"In this way, the casualties of our army in this battle are a bit too much, this damn Hulu! If I had known, I shouldn't have let them go so easily! ”
After listening to Yan Gang's report, Gongsun Chan stepped on a small dirt slope and looked into the distance.
"Hmph, sooner or later, labor and management must destroy those miscellaneous pieces!" As if thinking of something, Gongsun Zhan's eyes suddenly sank.
"Even if... Even if... With the protection of that old thing..., on top of such a national righteousness, who... Nor can it be hindered! ”
In the next moment, from Gongsun Zhan's mouth, it suddenly spit out, and others listened to the terrifying words.
Obviously, he meant that he threw the pot on someone again, and his dissatisfaction with him became more and more intense.
Like a seed, it has already bloomed, only to wait for one day, and suddenly bloom.
Yan Gang, who was following him, couldn't help but shrink his pupils.
As Gongsun Zhan's confidant, he naturally understands who the so-called old thing in Gongsun Chan's mouth is worth.
However, soon, Yan Gang regained his composure.
Although he was shocked by Gongsun Zhan's tone at this time, it did not affect his loyalty to him.
What's more, even if it really comes to the point of meeting each other, he believes that it will not be the White Horse General who should be worried, but the indecisive state pastor.
Hmph, Liu Yu...
It's not boasting, Yan Gang has that self-confidence, with Gongsun Zhan's popularity in Youzhou now, he only needs to let himself lead 3,000 white horses and righteous servants, plus 5,000 soldiers and horses in the headquarters, it is enough to win Youzhou for the lord!
As the general of Gongsun Zhan, he will not have the slightest respect for Liu Yu, the pastor of Youzhou.
After all, for soldiers, force and violence are the literati who are admired and only think about peace talks? Hehe...
While thinking, Yan Gang looked up at the battlefield.
The bloody field stretched along the grassland, spreading out from north to south, and countless mutilated limbs and broken heads were scattered on it, like embroidery on the red carpet.
Hehe, if you change the state pastor and see such a scene, I'm afraid you won't have to vomit, right?
Yan Gang thought maliciously.
......
After an hour, the battlefield was cleared and gradually ended.
Once it will be successful, ten thousand bones will wither!
In this battle, both Xianbei and Gongsun Chan suffered a lot of losses.
Wuhuan and Xianbei have successively lost more than 10,000 soldiers and thousands of war horses.
On the other hand, the Han army also suffered a lot of casualties, and 10,000 soldiers were killed on the spot; Nearly half of the people were slightly or severely injured; Among them, the white horse righteous servants have all been killed and injured by more than 3,000!
Lose both.
This time, it still can't be considered a big victory.
Perhaps, the only thing that can surprise people is the war horses left behind by the Wuhuan and Xianbei army light horses.
These are all good horses from Liaodong, and they are also raised with huge sums of money, and each of them is fat and strong.
It's just that Gongsun Chan himself is not interested in horses other than white horses.
Better than nothing!
Gongsun Zhan waved his hand, skipped this question, glanced at his lips and said, "Forget it, forget it, I heard that the master sent by Liu Yu this time will be Xian Yufu, Zihua and go with me to take a look and deal with it." ”
Then, the two began to walk towards the camp where the Youzhou army was located.
Soon, under the leadership of the herald, I met Xian Yufu, who was also commanding the cleanup of the battlefield.
"It turned out to be General Gongsun, General Gongsun first broke the plan of Wuhuan, and then defeated the Xianbei army, he is really a god, if the lord knows about the victory of the white horse, he will definitely reward the general."
Xian Yufu, who came from the horse, did not hesitate to praise Gongsun Zhan's admiration.
"Where, today's victory depends on the lives of all the soldiers, speaking of which, this time I would like to thank General Xian Yu for sending troops to help." Gongsun Chan thanked Xian Yufu and said.
In this battle, these Youzhou light cavalry that came with Gao Zhi also lost more than 1,000 cavalry, which is worthy of his thanks.
As for the generous reward mentioned in Xian Yu's mouth?
Hmph, that's not necessarily...
Besides, he doesn't need to!
Gongsun Zhan made up his mind in his heart, but said lightly: "Xian Yu General, I will leave Zihua to continue to converge on the battlefield later, if there is a demand, but it doesn't hurt to mention it."
"Where, where..."
After Xian Yufu and Gongsun Chan were polite again, Gongsun Chan turned around and returned to the camp, leaving Yan Gang and Xian Yufu to talk in detail.
And he himself led a group of white horses to return to Jixian County.
