Chapter 1060: Huang Zhong's plan
"Whoa." The generals in the tent said in unison.
After a moment of silence, Lu Bu continued: "There are many soldiers who have been injured on the battlefield, and the state pastor will do its best to help them continue to live. ”
This sentence set off a lot of waves in the hearts of the generals, supporting the seriously disabled soldiers is absolutely impossible to find under the rule of the princes, because ordinary soldiers are just tools to obtain benefits in their eyes, although it is a pity to die, but there is no need to continue to pay the price.
Seeing Lu Bu set his eyes on himself, Jia Xu coughed lightly and said: "In this battle, our army captured 23,210 princes and soldiers, killed more than 40,000 princes and soldiers, and our army killed or missing about 11,000 soldiers and wounded about 13,000 soldiers, of which about 5,000 were seriously injured. ”
The hearts of the generals in the field were tightly held again, 40,000 troops, after a battle, the complete soldiers were tightly left 16,000 people, which shows the cruelty of this war.
"Ben Hou stressed once again that the wounded soldiers must receive the best treatment and be properly accommodated, and the soldiers who do not affect the battle can choose to join the army or return home, and the generals of all departments must not stop them." Lu Budao said that in terms of the degree of freedom of non-commissioned soldiers, the state army is relatively high, but all non-commissioned soldiers who have been in the army for more than a certain number of years can choose to return home.
On the battlefield of Hanoi, Huang Zhong's harvest was not small, Hanoi was the only way for the princes to retreat at this time, with the strength of the scorching sun bow, as long as he was cautious, he could make those panicked soldiers pay a heavy price.
At the same time, Huang Zhong also learned about the battle outside Huguan from the captured soldiers.
The fact that the Bingzhou army was able to win in this battle made Huang Zhong breathe a sigh of relief, and Huang Zhong understood the importance of the state to Lu Bu, and Huang Zhong poured a lot of energy into the Bingzhou army.
"At the beginning, I was still a little puzzled, why the cavalry of the princes on the battlefield suddenly withdrew, it turned out to be because of the war outside Huguan." Zhang Xiu showed a sudden look, he was a little regretful that he did not participate in the decisive battle against the princes.
Whether it is in martial arts or strategy, Zhang Xiu is not weak, after these generals enter the state army, more often than not, they think about how to make meritorious contributions, only merit can make them stand out in the state army, and after arriving at the state army, you will understand the importance of merit for a general or a soldier.
"Since the princes were defeated, General Ben gave them a harsh lesson in Hanoi, and General Zhang brought up the topographic map." A gleam flashed in Huang Zhong's eyes.
Zhang Xiu is also excited, whenever Huang Zhong speaks in this tone, it shows that there will be something big, the battlefield in Hanoi in the eyes of the princes The situation is dangerous for the Lieyang Archer, but Zhang Xiu, who is in the Bingzhou army, knows that the Lieyang Archer can only be regarded as in Hanoi, whenever the enemy has a big move, the Lieyang Archer can know in advance, and even the people of Hanoi have a supportive attitude towards the Bingzhou Army. Zhang Xiu also felt for the first time how beautiful it was to have the support of the people, especially the trusting eyes of the people looking at the soldiers in the army, so that Zhang Xiu couldn't help but feel a little flustered.
On the topographic map, Huang Zhong set his sights on the Eagle's Beak Ridge, on the danger of the terrain, the Eagle's Beak Ridge can definitely be ranked in the forefront of Hanoi, and the Eagle's Beak Ridge is one of the most important ways for the princes' army to get out of Hanoi, from the Eagle's Beak Ridge out of Hanoi, it is much faster than the ordinary road, and the most important point is that the cement road in the Eagle's Beak Ridge is unblocked, and the speed of the army will be faster.
After Sun Ce gathered the remnants of the defeated army, his face became more and more gloomy, and the 40,000 elite Jiangdong Army officers and soldiers, after the decisive battle with the Bingzhou Army, only more than 10,000 people remained, and the losses could not be described only as heavy.
If it weren't for the fact that the Bingzhou army made a move at the last moment, even if it was defeated, the Jiangdong army would not have suffered such a big loss, Sun Ce had even seen the excited expression of the enemy hidden in Jiangdong when he heard the news of the defeat of the Jiangdong army, Jiangdong was stable in the eyes of outsiders, and Sun Ce was very clear about the specific situation, the reason why the Jiangdong family did not dare to stand up was because the Jiangdong army was too strong, and the Sun family rose in Jiangdong, and there were not a few people who offended.
The morale of more than 10,000 soldiers and horses seems to be a little low, they have just experienced a defeat, they are depressed, even when they walk, they are no longer the sonorous when they just entered Hanoi, many soldiers show a look of fear, although the war has passed a day, they still have a shocking feeling, especially the attack under the madness of the camp and the state army in the end, that kind of posture, they will never forget.
"Gong Jin, now that our army is demoralized, we should return to Jiangdong as soon as possible." Sun Ce said.
"My lord, although the Jiangdong Army has withdrawn from the battlefield of Huguan now, it is still not to be taken lightly, but in Hanoi, there is a Lieyang archer led by Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong is a famous general in the Bingzhou army, and the Lieyang archers under his command are extremely elite." Zhou Yu reminded.
"In Gongjin's opinion, what should I do?" Sun Ce's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked.
"My lord, if you want to return to the army, the road through the Eagle's Beak Ridge is the fastest, and when the army entered Hanoi, it was also from the Eagle's Beak Ridge, in the opinion of the subordinates, when the army was withdrawn, it must not pass through the Eagle's Beak Ridge." Zhou Yu said.
Sun Ce wondered: "Why, when our army entered Hanoi, it did not encounter any enemies. ”
"At the beginning, our army was strong, and the state army was at a disadvantage in numbers, the terrain of the eagle's beak ridge was not dangerous, if a large number of soldiers and horses were ambushed, there would definitely be traces of leakage, if a small number of soldiers and horses were ambushed, it could not play its due role, but now the situation is different, the coalition army is defeated, and the morale of the state army is high, if an ambush is set, our army is in danger." Zhou Yu said.
Sun Ce immediately understood, he trusted Zhou Yu unconditionally, and immediately ordered the army to change the road.
Among Cao's army, Cao Cao also heard the same advice from his strategists.
After listening to the words of the strategist, Cao Cao laughed and said: "Although the Bingzhou army has won, it is also a loss on the battlefield, and our army still has 20,000 people at this time, and it is very far away from Huguan, and there will be no Bingzhou army ambushing it." ”
