Chapter 246: Send the seriously injured back
The guards protected Sun Quan, and dozens of round balls landed near them.
When the ball hit the ground, Sun Quan saw clearly that it was dozens of human heads that had just been cut off.
The scouts who had just been sent out were all killed, and Sun Quan, who was protected by the guards, suddenly panicked.
"Quick! Against! Although he was a little flustered, Sun Quan did not lose his proportions, and when he saw those heads, he immediately shouted the order to fight.
Before the shouting fell, the officers and soldiers of the Jiangdong Army were just about to line up, and countless arrows flew from the hills on both sides.
Arrows whistled and flew towards the Jiangdong Army.
The soldiers in the formation held shields and formed a shield wall to cover them.
Gao Shun turned over and stood on the hillside, and pointed forward with a halberd: "Trap the camp, attack!" ”
The soldiers of the trapped camp, who were already eager to try, received the order and rushed down the mountain with a howl.
"Shoot arrows, shoot back!" was so pressed by the arrows that he couldn't raise his head, but Sun Quan still forced the archers of the Jiangdong Army to fight back.
The arrows from both sides flew overhead with a whistling roar, and the archers of the Jiangdong Army could not raise their heads.
Occasionally, one or two of the more courageous ones stood up and opened their longbows to shoot back, but before they could crouch down again, they were shot by oncoming arrows.
The trapping camp in the charge held their shields in front of them, and the lances they held in their hands pointed straight forward.
The trapping camp rushed down the hillside on both sides, and the Jiangdong Army lined up to defend on both sides.
With the reverberation of shields and shields colliding, the two sides fought together.
Every soldier in the camp is carefully selected by Gao Shun.
They were burly and full of strength.
The era of cold weapons is different from the era of hot weapons, and it is impossible for the two sides to shoot bows and arrows for a long time, and most of the battles are mainly hand-to-hand combat.
A soldier's physique and strength are often the difference between success and failure.
The soldiers of the trapped camp in strong armor were fighting with the Jiangdong Army, brandishing their weapons, like rows of harvesters harvesting the lives of the Jiangdong Army.
The Jiangdong Army was suddenly attacked, and the mood of the soldiers was very unstable.
However, reinforcements were behind, and they were not immediately routed.
Several guards protected Sun Quan and fought and retreated, and Gao Shun brandished a halberd to rush back and forth on the battlefield of the melee.
The battle turned to one side.
Just when the Jiangdong Army was about to be unable to support it, there were horns in the distance, and another Jiangdong Army with the same number as them rushed up.
Zhuge Jin led the soldiers and horses to the end.
He expected that the enemy army would cut off the rear road and let Sun Quan go, so he did not urge the soldiers to go too fast.
As he was advancing, a fast horse rushed towards him.
On horseback was a bloodied cavalryman who looked like he had been seriously wounded.
Coming to Zhuge Jin, the cavalry shouted breathlessly: "General Sun was ambushed, and I ask the general to rush to help......"
After shouting this, the cavalry fell off his horse.
A Jiangdong soldier hurriedly stepped forward to check.
He first probed the cavalryman's snort, then rolled his eyelids to check it, and shook his head at Zhuge Jin.
Knowing that it was not good, Zhuge Jin hurriedly ordered: "Speed up the march and rush to the aid of General Sun!" ”
On the narrow mountain road, as there were more and more Jiangdong troops, the battle in the camp became more and more difficult.
They stubbornly defended the exit of the mountain road, and although the Jiangdong Army launched several attacks, they were unable to break through the opening.
Unable to break through the defense line of the trapped camp, the Jiangdong Army could only choose to retreat.
After fighting all day on the mountain road, it gradually became quiet after entering the night.
The Jiangdong Army has retreated, and the soldiers of the trapped camp are sweeping the battlefield.
"All the weapons are left." Gao Shun was covered with blood, and he rode back and forth on the mountain road: "See if there are any alive, if there are still alive enemy soldiers, no one will be left ......"
"General Gao!" Gao Shun was shouting, and Pang Tong came to his side: "I don't think it's better not to kill all the enemy soldiers." ”
"Why?" Gao Shun looked at him suspiciously: "Is it possible to let them heal their injuries and then become enemies of our army?" ”
"The lightly wounded can be killed, and the seriously injured can be returned to them." Pang Tong replied: "There are more wounded in the army, and it is not that they take care of them. If the wounded are allowed to die, Sun Quan will definitely lose his military spirit. However, if he was to take care of the wounded, how much food, grass, and herbs did he have in his army? Even if a seriously wounded soldier recovers well, it is impossible for him to return to the battlefield in three or two months. ”
Gao Shun's eyes lit up: "It's still Pang Gong thoughtful, why didn't I think it could be like this?" ”
He immediately ordered: "Give me a careful inspection and pick out the seriously wounded Jiangdong Army." If there are minor injuries, make them get together as serious injuries. If they are killed, they will be so lucky, if they are still alive if they are not killed, they will return Sun Quan to them! ”
Although the trapping camp is newly established, the soldiers are all veterans of a hundred battles.
They have long been accustomed to blood and have long been accustomed to killing, and it is not particularly difficult for them to torture lightly wounded enemy troops to serious injuries.
The soldiers dug a deep pit at the foot of the mountain and buried the corpses in it.
After a bloody battle, the trapped camp also lost a lot of soldiers.
The bodies of their companions were neatly stacked, with only five in each pit.
When filling the earth, the trapping soldiers were cautious, as if they would wake up their comrades lying in the pit if they moved a little harder.
As for the burial of the Jiangdong Army who died in the battle, their actions were much more rude.
Some people even lifted the legs of Jiangdongjun's corpse and threw them into the pit like throwing a sack.
Each pit was littered with the corpses of the Jiangdong Army.
The earth that was buried on top of the pit was also a thin layer, just to prevent the beasts from pulling it out.
Gao Shun's order was issued, and although the soldiers in the camp were reluctant, they still rummaged through the seriously wounded Jiangdong army.
The dying Jiangdong Army, which had not yet died, was thrown into the carriage by them.
Carrying the seriously wounded Jiangdong Army, the soldiers of the trapped camp who cleaned up the battlefield were not very happy.
The enemy was close to death, and it was unpleasant to have to put them in the carriage and send them back even though they could easily break their necks.
However, if you find a lightly wounded enemy, the mood of the soldiers trapped in the camp will be much happier.
Gao Shun gave an order to find the lightly wounded Jiangdong Army and toss it well.
If you can't get seriously injured, it doesn't matter if you get killed.
On the battlefield being cleaned, there were bursts of miserable howls from time to time.
Every time there was a miserable howl, Gao Shun and Pang Tong knew that it was the soldiers of the trapped camp who discovered the lightly injured Jiangdong Army.
The soldiers of the trapped camp were cleaning the battlefield from the beginning of night, and it was not until the darkness of night that they completely cleaned the battlefield.
"What do we do next?" Gao Shun asked Pang Tong.
"Hold the mountain pass and don't let the Jiangdong Army pass half a step!" Pang Tong replied: "As long as they can't get by, the general will already get the credit for this merit!" ”
