Chapter 945: Listen to the report of the results
After the main force of the army was supplied outside Sanchuan City, early the next morning, Luo Zhaoyun gave the order to set off, speeding up the march.
Because the war is imminent, the recent food has also been improved, each soldier can get one meat and two vegetables, butter, mutton fat into the pot, plus fine salt without poison, seasoning of other ingredients, rice with crushed chaff, these subtleties have been improved and improved, so that the Dahua soldiers are full of food and drink, and their physical strength has increased.
Due to the consumption of coarse grains and the inability to hull rice, the rice cooked hard, and the pasta was also the kind of black steamed buns, without oil and water, and only some green vegetables were cooked, resulting in the soldiers' physique being very weak and their physical strength could not rise.
Of course, many people can't even eat two meals a day, and the food and drink of the soldiers is already good compared to those poor people.
In Dahua, the mill was carried out to remove the rice husk, plus the output of fine salt, which improved some details in the food, and added beef and mutton, meat and vegetarian combinations in the past few days, so that the strong men who went out to fight were very full, and they accelerated the march during the day to temper their physique.
After a day's journey, at dusk, we finally arrived at the front line to join the cavalry vanguard and set up camp.
Pei Renji, Pei Yuanqing, Xue Wanqian and others came to greet His Majesty and report on the results of the battle and the situation of the main Turkic forces.
In the big tent, Luo Zhaoyun sat on the main seat, and seventy percent of the military generals and three percent of the civil officials and servants gathered in the tent to discuss the military situation.
After listening to Pei Renji's description of the details of the battle, the arrangement of troops, as well as the use of longbows, crossbow machines, and black powder, disrupted the rhythm of the Turkic cavalry's impact, making the enemy army change from active to passive, but was defeated by Dahua's cavalry counterattack.
If it is a hard encounter, it is really hard to say, although the Dahua vanguard has a cavalry formation, charging with a car hanging array, but the goose-shaped formation of the Turkic cavalry, there are also some mysteries of the art of war, really confrontation, the fight is fierce, even if the Dahua vanguard can win, it is also a residual victory, definitely not like this only wounded three or four thousand people, more than 20,000 troops of the enemy, and thousands of Huns were captured.
"Your Majesty, the vanguard of our army has killed more than 21,600 enemies, captured 4,260 people, scattered thousands, more than 30,000 war horses, about 10,000 dead and wounded war horses, and nearly 10,000 horses that escaped while the chaos ...... escaped.
"How many casualties are there in the vanguard of our army?" Luo Zhaoyun asked about the casualties of the vanguard army and was very concerned about the soldiers.
The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs in the account was greatly touched in his heart, and when His Majesty heard such good news, he was not overjoyed, but calmly asked about his own casualties, sympathetic to the generals, which made people's hearts warm.
"Back to Your Majesty, the vanguard army has lost 3,400 people, more than 1,240 seriously injured, and more than 2,150 people have been lightly wounded.
Luo Zhaoyun nodded slightly and said: "Arrange the wounded, the seriously injured, immediately send someone to Sanchuan City for treatment, the lightly injured, the military camp for medical treatment, as a substitute at any time, the dead and wounded war horses, cut the meat in time and store it, and use the cellar to ......"
Tens of thousands of war horses, a war horse out of a hundred catties of meat, that is also a million catties of horse meat, but in the spring, the weather is warm, it is easy to spoil outside, so, slaughter and cut meat as soon as possible, and then dig a few cellars, store meat, and smear the surface with salt, so that it can be preserved for a longer time.
At least during the war with the Turks, there is meat to use, and the excess can be sent to my Sanchuan City for storage, and then find a way to freeze the ice, transport the meat back, and solve the lack of meat in Chang'an City.
"Some mutilated horses, which cannot be used for conquest, but will not die in the short term, are loaded and transported back to the capital, so that when they are used, they are slaughtered, and the meat is kept for a longer time." During the war, Luo Zhaoyun also cared about the people's livelihood, and only by allowing the people in the capital to eat better and their lives improved than before, the local people could support and support Dahua more.
This era pays attention to the local customs, the regime needs the support of the local people, when the current situation is not settled, even if Dahua has gained a foothold in Chang'an City, but the recognition of the people in Guanzhong, with the imperial court, the prosperity of the capital, etc., are the guarantee of Dahua's stable operation. Therefore, Luo Zhaoyun always cares about the living conditions in the capital, after those days of private visits to Weifu, he knows the suffering of the people, and can improve the lives of the people, even if it is just a temporary relief of the meat supply, it is also meaningful, and it is not useless.
"The main Turkic forces, how far is it from us at the moment?" After Luo Zhaoyun questioned the wounded and arranged the loot,
Pei Renji replied: "About two hundred and sixty or seventy li, at the speed of the Turkic march, if you do not rest tonight, you will arrive tomorrow hour." If the camp is normally closed, and when he arrives here tomorrow afternoon, he has already sent scouts and patrol guards to always explore the movements of the main Turkic army, and the pen name is the Turkic sneak attack. ”
After Luo Zhaoyun heard this, he said approvingly: "Good job, be careful that in the second half of the night, the main Turkic army sent a vanguard to attack the camp." In addition, check the gunpowder, crossbow arrows, weapons, etc., this battle with the main Turkic force is by no means overnight, it may have to be fought for a while, the gunpowder is sufficient, so that the Turks will suffer a lot, and the long shield array is also specially prepared for the Turkic cavalry, assembled together, so that the Turks can see the craftsman spirit of our Central Plains. ”
The so-called long shield array is to make many large iron shields of standard size, and there are places where screws can be installed in the corners, and when the time comes, they can be connected to each other, up and down, and interspersed with spears and spears, forming a steel city wall, which discourages the Turkic cavalry.
All kinds of means, just to deal with the Turkic army this time, in addition, the army of Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Cheng Zhijie, Guo Xiaoke and others were scattered in several places and hidden, and after the big battle, they carried out surprise attacks and attacks, playing the role of surprise soldiers.
Pei Yuanqing stood up and asked to lead the cavalry to fight the vanguard to kill the enemy tomorrow, and Xue Wanqian and Shi Danai of course also wanted to kill the enemy happily and charge into battle.
"A few generals don't have to be anxious, tomorrow you and the other three people, each leading a cavalry team of 10,000 people, take turns to attack the enemy, Pei Qing, Lai Qing, you two are responsible for the coordination of the infantry phalanx, as well as the bow and arrow array, firearms battalion, etc., to block the Turkic waves of powerful attacks!"
"Wait for you to understand!" The generals present gave up their orders, and all the partial generals and captains were also full of fighting spirit, gearing up, looking forward to the coming of tomorrow's big battle.
