Chapter 304: Xue Tianlie's questioning
Hearing Gu Xiuyuan's inquiry, the military general first pondered for a moment, sighed, and the military general slowly reported: "In this battle, our war guard soldiers sacrificed more than 730,000 people, and the wounded were about 400,000 people. ”
"Shhh
After hearing this data, Gu Xiuyuan and the others all gasped, they didn't expect the Japanese to be so fierce.
After a moment of silence, Lu Zhuweng stood up and ordered lightly: "Immediately send someone to repair the city wall, replace the city gate, strengthen the strength of the defensive line, prevent the enemy from counterattacking again, and at the same time pass the report of the great victory to the headquarters of the coalition army, and ask for rewards for all the soldiers!" ”
……
Ling Xia returned to the camp from the command tent, he hadn't closed his eyes for a day and a night, so after entering the camp of the Thunder Legion, he wanted to lie down and rest, but as soon as he came back, Xue Tianlie and the others chased after him, in addition to Du Qijun and the three division commanders, several people were followed by dozens of generals, they were the commanders and auxiliary generals of each division.
Under the leadership of Xue Tianlie, these people came towards Ling Xia in a mighty way, and as soon as they met, Xue Tianlie questioned in an unhappy tone: "Commander, I don't accept your military orders, why didn't you send us into battle in yesterday's battle?" Could you please give the big guy an explanation. ”
"Explain what?" Ling Xia tilted his head and glanced at Xue Tianlie and the generals behind him: "Who asked you to come over?" ”
During this period of time, Ling Xia's prestige in the Thunder Legion has become higher and higher, and seeing Ling Xia's unkind tone at this moment, those ten thousand captains all subconsciously looked at Xue Tianlie, feeling everyone's gaze, Xue Tianlie glared at them: "A group of cowards." ”
After scolding, Xue Tianlie took the initiative to walk in front of Ling Xia, he looked at Ling Xia with an unconvinced expression: "Commander, the Thunder Legion has always been the vanguard and main force since its formation, and it has never been hiding in the city like last night, I feel that the Legion Commander's behavior last night was too cowardly, and the Legion Commander is afraid of death, so he can hide in the camp tent and not come out, but we are not afraid of death, I hope you don't stop us from killing the enemy and making meritorious contributions." ”
"Xue Tianlie, you are presumptuous." Du Qijun, who spoke, glared at Xue Tianlie fiercely.
"General Xue, it's too much." Zhang Yixia and Yan Sanniang hurriedly dragged Xue Tianlie.
"Do you think I'm stopping you from going to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions?"
Ling Xia looked at Xue Tianlie's gaze, grabbed Xue Tianlie's arm and walked towards the outside of the camp, at this time those legions who participated in the battle were returning to the camp in a sparse manner, and the previous legions that were organized and dispatched had all become depressed and sparse, two of the legions happened to be stationed next door to the Thunder Legion, originally they were all full legions, but less than half of the soldiers who returned at this time were all wounded.
Pointing to the bloodstained soldiers, Ling Xia said to Xue Tianlie in an excited tone: "See, these are the fate of the legions that participated in the battle last night, the two legions next door have a total of 215,743 people participating in the battle, and after a battle, they killed 96,000 people, and the soldiers who survived were all seriously injured, half of the mortality rate, you can bear it, I can't bear it."
Do you think I'm blocking your promotion and getting rich? I'm especially afraid that you and the brothers of the legion will be damaged, that's a war, it's not a place for you to be a hero, every soldier has flesh and blood, and has his own family, since they are now following me Ling Xia, I have the obligation to protect them, and I have the responsibility to hand over my brothers to their families safely, instead of sending the ashes of my brothers back. ”
Hearing Ling Xia's words, Xue Tianlie and the rest of the generals were all stunned in place, especially Xue Tianlie, thinking of his actions, he felt as if he had been slapped in the face, and a trace of hot feeling rose on his face.
