Chapter 68: Corporal Lixian (Fourth Shift)

Lu Bu first thanked all the people who stayed in the Liangcheng camp, they greatly consumed the vitality of the Xianbei people, delayed and won precious time, and finally withstood the attack of the Xianbei people, and made great contributions.

Secondly, I thanked the reinforcements from Youzhou, Sili, and Jizhou, without their great sacrifices, it would not have been possible to achieve the final victory.

In the end, it was proposed that everyone toast a glass of wine to the soldiers who died, and it was they who ensured the arrival of the final victory at the cost of their lives, and Lu Bu promised that all the dead, wounded and meritorious soldiers would never be treated badly, and they should be implemented in accordance with the military merit rewards and pension standards of the trapped camp.

The next thing is free activity, Lu Bu and Jia Xu, Fu Zhu, Gao Shun, and Gongsun Zhan sat at a table and listened to Jia Xu's report in detail.

The casualties of this Liangcheng offensive and defensive battle have been counted, and it can be described as heavy casualties.

First of all, the 1st Infantry Brigade lost 800 men killed and 1,500 wounded, the 2nd Brigade suffered 600 killed and 1,400 wounded, and the Reserve Brigade lost 700 killed and 1,200 wounded, nearly half of the total number of casualties.

But it's good to be trapped in the camp, and the casualties of reinforcements from all walks of life are even greater.

The Youzhou army suffered 2,500 killed and 5,500 wounded, the Bingzhou army lost 4,000 killed and 6,000 wounded, the Jizhou army suffered 6,500 killed and 8,000 wounded, and the Sili army entered the battle late, with 500 killed and 2,000 wounded, and thousands of people supporting the front line were killed or wounded.

In this offensive and defensive operation, in the early stage of the battle, the Han army gave full play to the advantages of long-range attacks, especially the use of new weapons and crossbows, and achieved unexpected results, and Xu Huang actually achieved 5,000 to 0 results.

It shows that as long as the tactics are used properly, the repeater is the best choice to suppress the charge of the cavalry group.

In addition, trenches, pits, cannons, etc. are important reliance on defense, and if the chariot array is in the field and there is no city defense to rely on, it is also an effective means.

The last chariot battalion and the heavy cavalry proved that they should not be a weapon for attacking fortifications, but should be a killer weapon when breaking through the enemy and giving the enemy the final blow, the more sudden the better.

Lu Bu also told the three who did not participate in the results of his long-range attack, and explained the timing of his choice of sneak attack and the necessity of pretending to be Kebi Nengbu.

Even if they later learn that it is fake, they will leave the three tribes with each other.

Especially when he took Kebineng's old camp, next, I don't know how Kebineng will deal with it. He had already sent Jin Ilyan and Zhang He to lead his subordinates to pick up Xu Rong.

Lu Bu said to Fu Zhu and Gongsun Zhan: "Later, I will send the documents to Luoyang, this great victory, the court will have a heavy reward, Gong, Mr. and brother are all great achievements, the court will definitely promote the two, I congratulate you first." Fu Zhu and Gongsun Chan were humble.

The banquet was drunk until midnight, and after the victory, everyone relaxed and rejoiced.

Lu Bu and Jia Xu came to Lu Bu's handsome tent, and after sitting down, they looked at each other and smiled. Lu Bu bowed to the end, "This time, it is all up to the military division to sit in the Liangcheng camp, preside over the overall situation, and perfectly realize the previous battle plan, so that I have the opportunity to attack the three major tribes again, please accept my worship." ”

Jia Xu hurriedly helped Lu Bu up, "Lord, where is it, this is also what a courtier should do, but this time the lord has made such a military feat again, I don't know where the emperor will explain?" ”

When Lu Bu heard this, he also sighed, "What the military advisor said is extremely true, when you are fighting, you only think about destroying as many enemies as possible, but you don't expect that you will be troubled by too much credit. “

"My father-in-law and I already have a state, and if we make military merits, only the three princes and nine ministers can praise our father and son, but if we enter Beijing, this hard-won foundation will be wasted, and I am also annoyed by this contradiction!"

"Don't worry, the lord, we can push most of the credit for this military exploit to the reinforcements from all walks of life, especially Gongsun Zhan and Fu Zhi, so that we are not greedy for merit, and we can make good friends with the forces of various states, and we can stay and merge with the states and wait for the opportunity."

"I think the general trend of the world will soon be chaotic, and the troubled times are a good time for us to grow and grow." Jia Xu said with a smile.

Lu Bu felt the same way, but he only felt that he was getting more and more tacit with the military advisor. Lu Bu asked Jia Xu, "Wenhe, last time I asked you to lobby about the matter of frustration, how did you do it?" ”

Jia Xu smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have done my best to know the mind of the lord and Mr., he also admires the lord, as long as the lord Lixian corporal, personally invite him, talk about it once, compare his heart to the heart, I guarantee that he will return to the lord, Mr. Fu Zhu come, General Zhang He can be persuaded by him, and the lord can get two big arms." ”

"Oh? If it is as Wenhe said, I am willing to personally invite Mr. Gong and Mr. Fu, it will be like I have another military advisor! Lu Bu said happily.

Without delay, Lu Bu immediately went to the camp of the frustrated master. As if he had anticipated Lu Bu's arrival, he sat in his tent, waiting for Lu Bu to visit.

Lu Bu entered the camp tent and smiled when he saw the situation. You're not welcome, and you directly begged Mr. Fu to stay and help him and create a great cause.

Fu Zhu is very satisfied with Lu Bu's thirsty attitude, those who achieve great things are not informal, and he originally appreciates Lu Bu's demeanor in doing things for people on weekdays, and he even heard Jia Xu talk about his future plans.

He also thought that Lu Bu was a good candidate to be his lord, and he was not hypocritical at the moment, and readily agreed to Lu Bu's invitation.

Lu Bu was overjoyed, he will be much more relaxed in the future, he is especially good at managing internal affairs, in the future, there will be Jia Xu outside, and there will be frustration inside, so why worry about the big thing. Lu Bu told Fu Zhu again that he wanted to leave Zhang He behind.

Frustrated and smiled: "Don't worry, the matter of the lord is on me, he is a small military Sima in Jizhou, how to put it in Wang Fen's eyes, I will find a way to keep it, as for me, please also ask the lord to repair a book, borrow it from Wang Fenshang, I think Wang Fen will be an adult." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll write a letter to Lord Wang."

After resting for a few days, Jia Xu came to see Lu Bu and told him that the stone monument commemorating the battle of Liangcheng had been prepared, and the craftsmen were carving their names on it, and they were ready to pay tribute at any time.

According to the different customs of different places, some of the soldiers who died in the war were cremated, and the ashes were brought back by their comrades in the same village, and most of them were buried on the spot.

For this reason, according to Lu Bu's suggestion, a martyr's cemetery was specially built nearby, and all were buried according to unified standards regardless of military affiliation, nationality, or official position. Those who could not find the bodies of the sacrificed soldiers also built a mound for future generations to mourn.

The monument to the martyrs of the battle of Liangcheng stands in the north of the high platform of the Liangcheng camp, and the high platform has been demolished. The entire monument is carved out of a single piece of black stone, and the names of the martyrs are carved on all sides by skilled stonemasons.

Under this monument, Lu Bu gathered all the soldiers and soldiers of all the surviving armies of the Battle of Liangcheng and held a public memorial.

Comforted these heroic souls in the sky with the news of victory, and solemnly promised again in front of everyone that all reinforcements, including Wuhuan and Huns, would receive their due rewards according to the standard of military merit rewards for trapped camps.

However, because it takes time to count and calculate military merits, all the troops first returned to the old camp in Yunzhong en masse, treating the wounded while compensating the families of the fallen soldiers.

Priority is given to treating the wounded and compensating the dead, and military merit rewards are given last, which is also the tradition of the trapped camp.

The Liangcheng battalion is temporarily garrisoned by 1,000 people of the Bingzhou Army, and the rotation system will be implemented in the future, and the troops stationed in Liangcheng also shoulder the responsibility of guarding the monument and the martyr's cemetery, after all, this battle, how many 14,000 people were killed, as martyrs, buried here.

After all, Lu Bu came from a more advanced and civilized society, and he couldn't be as careless as other people in this era, ignoring these warriors who sacrificed for the country and the nation, and turned into a handful of loess. Now that he is here, he is willing to do what he can to change.

After all the arrangements were made, the army triumphed, and at the same time, the fast horse who reported the victory took the letter written by Lu Bu to Jinyang first, and told Ding Yuan the good news, and then Ding Yuan and Gao Wang jointly played Lu Bu's official document of the victory, and copied the good news to the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty and spread it all over the world.
