Chapter 83: Bloody Battle of Du Yang (12)

Han He believes that the premise of harmony between monarchs and ministers is like-mindedness, and the opposite of like-mindedness is like-mindedness.

That Gongsun Yue could only talk on paper, and without sufficient preparation and foundation, not long after King Xian ascended the throne, he rashly launched a change, so that the national strength of Xian was severely damaged.

And now that the Marquis of Ding Yang has crossed the river, I am afraid that the Xian State has just pacified the civil strife, and the King of Xian and Gongsun Yue are eager to rebuild the prestige of their internal dynasty, so they let the Marquis of Ding Yang, a general who is "proficient" in the art of war, cross the river, and take advantage of the Jin army's serious illness to recover from the first battle to determine the victory.

Thinking of this, Han He was a little more sure of the decisive battle with the Xian army in the future. He was originally ready to fight to the death, but now it seems that the Xian army is afraid that it will be buried in the hands of Marquis Dingyang.

Thinking about all this, Han He's tense face finally showed a hint of relaxation, and then Wei Han said again:

"Old General Han, the Xian army suffered heavy casualties today, and the corpses are piled up, and I don't know what to do."

"Send people to the camp of the Xian army, and tell them to allow the Xian army to send a few men and horses to rescue the wounded and bring back the dead under the city."

"If so, will the Xian army start a night battle?"

"Move the flag of the general into the city, cut off half of the flagpole, and then inform the Xianjun to lead the corpse."

"No!"

Han He was sure that if the Marquis of Ding Yang attacked Duyang City, he would not hit the south wall and not look back, and he would go all the way to the black.

Therefore, we have to give Ding Yang Hou a little motivation, so that the Xian army dragged away the dead and wounded, even if the Xian army did not launch a night attack, it was bound to take the opportunity to explore the camp, so as long as his handsome flag was in the city, Ding Yang Hou would inevitably attack his own Chinese army as the goal, continue to attack, and even launch another siege is not impossible.

So half an hour later, Han He's handsome flag was quietly erected in Duyang City, and he also moved the handsome tent of the Chinese army to the city, but the handsome flag was half a zhang shorter, if it passed through the tower of the Xian army outside the city, it was invisible, but the two armies had their own fine work in the camp, and the fine work was visible, and through the fine work activities, the Xian army would soon be able to know.

And at this moment, under the west city of Duyang, eight or nine out of ten of the dead and wounded have been completely dead, and when the Xian army attacked the city in the evening, the Jin army poured boiling oil into the city in order to prevent the Xian army from attacking the city, which ignited the fire.

When the fire burned closely, it was only more than three zhang away from Bailiyan. The fire was still burning, and there was a disgusting smell in the air, the smell of blood and charred corpses.

He was lying under the corpse and his body was already soaked in blood, in order to make some space for the air to flow, so as not to be crushed to death by layers, he was lying on his knees with his body arched, and below him was Xiao, who was already asleep, perhaps fainting from excessive fear.

Measuring his snort with his hand, and still breathing, Bai Liyan tried to struggle to overturn the corpse on top of his head, but it was too heavy, and he had to have six or seven hundred catties, not to mention three or four people. If I hadn't knelt down at the beginning, I might have been suffocated to death.

While struggling, the voice of the Xianguo people faintly came, and his back seemed to move, and Bai Liyan couldn't help but think coldly:

"The Xianjun came to collect the corpse?"

It is not impossible to have this possibility, as long as the two sides do not distinguish the winner or loser in field battles and sieges, the enemy can indeed be allowed to pull away the dead from their own phalanx during the strike, although most of them have impure motives, but it is convenient for others and for their own convenience, so it is still a practice that all nations have observed, and only under special circumstances will the enemy be determined to take away the victims.

First, the corpse will be violent for too long, it will cause plague miasma, infectious diseases, both, both sides will have corpses in front of each other's doors, no one wants to see their brothers come back, for various circumstances, the short cessation of fire in wartime will both sides to pull the corpse.

At this time, I only felt that the sound was getting closer and closer, accompanied by the squeak of the trailer from time to time, but the sound was not very dense, and it was indeed the Xianjun who was dragging back the victims. But Bai Liyan still didn't dare to act rashly, in case the Jin army was cheating.

As the saying goes, soldiers are not tired of cheating, there is never absolute security in war, but at this moment, Bailiyan was faintly angry, he was thinking, is this a pig commanding!

How can there be a reason in the world to attack a city and only attack a city wall, even if the Xian army is subject to Duyang City, if it is not fighting, it will be dragged on, and now it is hard to knock the west of the city, and the Jin army has mobilized superior forces to occupy the city wall to defend it strictly, this is not a pig, what can it be!

After a long time, I only felt that there was a faint movement around me, and a corpse rolled down from my body, and I suddenly felt a lot lighter, and I could hear the moaning of the pain in my ears from time to time.

After a while, her body was lighter, and Bai Liyan struggled hard, and finally overturned the squeezed corpse on her back, and was taken aback when she looked up.

As far as the eye could see, the corpses were piled up, and he was buried in a pit surrounded by corpses, and even if he stood up, he barely put his head out of the pile of corpses, and on the side facing the Xianjun camp, leaving a narrow slit that dragged the corpses to leave behind.

At this time, he felt dizzy in front of him, Bailiyan stumbled and almost fell, stretched out his hand to support the corpse behind him, and only then did he stand firm, at this time he only said in a deep voice:

"Dead...... So much! ”

At this time, I only felt that there was a coldness behind me, not the coldness of blood penetration, but the coldness of my heart, which was cold from the soles of my feet to my heart.

At this time, two Xian soldiers came to pull people with torches, and suddenly saw a black shadow in the dimness, standing faintly, most of them were startled, stopped and shouted:

"Hey brother, are you still alive!"

One of them boldly stepped forward, shone it with a torch, and with a cry of exclamation, one staggered to the ground, only to see a bloody man stiffly looking, up and down had been soaked with blood, like a dead man with his eyes open.

The other person stepped forward with a bronze sword, the sword stepped forward, Bailiyan waved a sword to block it, and said:

"My own people, still alive, there is another here."

The man was taken aback:

"It's a big deal......

Maybe there were too many dead in the war, and the soldiers couldn't help but sigh.

Then the three of them carried Xiao out, he was already unconscious, but he still had a breath. At this time, the slightly taller Xianjun soldier beside him handed over a water bladder and asked:

"Brother of which battalion of yours."

"Under General Yao Sheng."

Bai Liyan said in a deep voice, and the soldier was also depressed and said:

"They are almost dead, and I have pulled a few before, and I have been sent to the wounded camp for treatment, I am afraid that I will not be able to survive a few."

The soldier said it was true, Baili Yan drank a sip of water, and then poured two more sips into Xiao, and he choked faintly:

"Ahem......"

Baili Yan called:

"Xiao, Xiao!"

"Big brother, big brother Wei...... Are we dead? ”

Xiao said stupid words, Bailiyan returned the water bladder to the soldier and helped Xiao up:

"Let's go back to camp."

“……”

Xiao was silent and didn't say anything, probably frightened. He is only fifteen, and if it is a peaceful era, he should still be on the third day of the new year or the first year of high school.

God knows why there is such a world in the universe, Bai Liyan has thought about this question countless times, but now he no longer has the luxury of thinking about it, because life is obviously more meaningful than anything.

Returning to the camp with Xiao, the soldiers along the way were stunned, all stunned by the bloody clothes on his body.

Trekking back to the camp where he had been stationed before did he learn that the Yao Sheng camp was gone, replaced by men and horses from other battalions. Bailiyan grabbed a centurion and asked:

"This general, where is the camp of General Yao Sheng."

The centurion was also taken aback:

"Why, you are under the command of General Yao Sheng."

"yes, just came back." Bai Liyan said weakly.

"General Yao Sheng has returned to the headquarters, and it should be in General Zhao's camp at this time."

"Thank you, General, for your advice."

After giving a salute, Bai Liyan took Xiao and turned around to touch Zhao Xun's camp.

Yao Sheng's first battalion headquarters belonged to Zhao Xun, and it was included in the siege camp of the former army, but it was only a temporary transfer, and it was necessary to return to the headquarters if it was repaired or retreated. Now that Yao Shengying has been wiped out, I am afraid that there are few people alive.

All the way to Zhao Xun's camp, you can hear all kinds of discussions along the way, all of which are talking about the unfavorable news of today's siege. No one wanted to fight a battle to the death, and the repercussions of the defeat in the siege had already spread through the army.

came to Zhao Xun's camp, Zhao Xun was inspecting the camp. At this time, a centurion suddenly reported:

"General Qiyu Zhao, a soldier from Wei Xian asks to see the general."

Hearing the news, Zhao Xun was stunned:

"What, he's alive."

The centurion doesn't know why:

"The lowly duty was to find two bloody people on the way to the outpost, and wanted to escape from the city and come to return to the camp, and then they were stopped by the lowly duty."

"Quick, please come to the tent and talk!"

"No!"

Zhao Xun was surprised and delighted, surprised that Wei Xian was still alive, and happy that maybe the war would take a turn for the better.

Quickly rushed back to the big tent, only to see two people, one tall and one short, standing under the firelight outside the tent, Zhao Xun was also taken aback when he took a closer look, and looked closely, the tall man was Wei Xian:

"Wei Xian, you're still alive!"

"General!" Bailiyan gave a slight salute, her tone was a little excited, and she even wanted to cry.

"Excuse me." Picking up Bailiyan, Zhao Xun said again: "Come on, go and arrange for freshening up quickly, and get two sets of clean clothes." ”

After instructing the soldiers, Zhao Xun asked Bailiyan again:

"How did you survive?"

"Alas......" Bai Liyan sighed: "General Zhao, can you borrow a step to speak." ”

"Come with me."

Bai Liyan turned to leave, Xiao's hands tightly grasped his right arm:

"Xiao, stay here, Brother Wei wants to tell General Zhao something important."

"Brother Wei, don't throw Xiao down!"

Almost begging, Bailiyan also softened her heart:

"Brother Wei is going to have something to do, and he will come back immediately."

At this time, Xiao hesitated slightly, and Bai Liyan violently took off her hands and followed Zhao Xun to no one's place:

"General Zhao, I hope General Zhao forgives me for today's matter, the reason why I can come back alive is really a last resort."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Today, during the siege of the city, I saw the Jin army hanging grass and mud bags on the city wall, and I knew in my heart that Han He must have learned the lesson of Yin Yangcheng, and this time it will be used to attack our army. So much so that General Yao Sheng died under his command.

It is precisely because he knows that if he attacks by force, he will definitely die in the future, and he can only cheat to death to survive in a hurry, so he is lucky to live until now. ”

"I see, but it is not a violation of military law to cheat death, you can rest assured."

"Thank you for your forgiveness, I am grateful."

"You're here to find Yao Sheng."

"Yes, I don't want to be stopped by the centurion of the patrol camp and report to the general."

"The general thought that you had died in battle, but now our army is afraid that it is in danger, but Ding Yang Hou is still unaware."

"Why, today's siege was really done by Marquis Dingyang!" Bai Liyan was suddenly furious.

"Exactly, the general thought that the plan of the Dingyang Marquis to attack the cave would most likely be successful, so he agreed to attack the city. But who knew that Han He was so cunning that he learned the strategy of our army to defend the city for his use, and as a result, he killed 7,000 brothers. ”

Hearing this, Bai Liyan was shocked. He never thought that his slightest cleverness would lead to such a big murder that he almost died under his own cleverness. Thinking of this, he smiled coldly:

"Hehe, good and evil cause and effect are rewarded, and today is my turn."

This sentence was very low, and Zhao Xun didn't seem to hear it clearly, so he asked:

"What do you mean by that?"

"Back to General Zhao, our army's strategy of defending the city has now been learned by the Jin army, and it is not accidental that the Jin army uses it to deal with our army, it is an inevitable move, not unpredictable. It's just that Han He has already seen through the method of attacking the cave, and today he only attacked Xicheng and buried the lives of more than 7,000 soldiers in vain, which is even more stupid. ”

"It's true that the siege is not well thought out, but why can't the cave attack?"

"General, you think, the Jin army camp is each other's horns, even if our army attacks into Duyang City, if the Jin army in Duyang City retreats to the city wall, and the Jin army outside the city echoes, even if our army enters the city, won't it become a live target for the Jin army on the city wall."
