Chapter 271: Rest - Front and Rear

In Hanzhong City, Heluo would sit in the lobby with a sad face, and his generals would quarrel non-stop. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Guoying, Gao Mingzhan and other green battalion generals believed that after this fiasco, the loyal and righteous army had already built fortifications at the west gate, and if they did not retreat, they would be wiped out.

Heluohui, Li Guohan and others did not think so, according to the agreement with Nikan, no matter what, they must defend until the arrival of Duoduo and Wu Sangui's overall situation, otherwise the loyal and righteous army will confront the Qing army with the Han River as the boundary, and the drag will also drag the Qing army down.

Although Li Guoying and Gao Mingzhan are unwilling, who makes the other party a master and a slave? There was no choice but to inspect the various city gates to appease the hearts of the Green Battalion soldiers.

After the loyal and righteous army set up camp 3 miles away from Hanzhong City, Yang Xuan saw everyone in a burst of excitement.

Under the city of Shunqing, the loyal and righteous army was defeated by Haoge's department, which was really because of the terrain, and because the red-coated artillery suddenly attacked, so the other party was caught off guard.

The defeat of Luo Luohun under the heavy (Qing) city was really because after he blocked the passage out of Sichuan, the Tartars not only had low morale of the whole army, but more importantly, they were tired of fighting for several months.

This time was different, it was an encounter, and it was deliberately planned by the Tartars to take the loyal rebels by surprise.

Although the casualties of various units were quite large, especially Wang Zhibang's 10th Regiment, which suffered more than half of the casualties, and Guo Chonglie's 3rd Regiment was also more than 30%, but this time after all, the Tatar cavalry was defeated on the frontal battlefield.

Among them, there are 3,000 Manmeng Eight Banners, and it is roughly estimated that more than 1,000 people were killed on the battlefield alone, and it was a hearty victory in any case.

In addition, it is to find a way to deal with cavalry on the battlefield, that is, to use the Fran cannon and the tiger squat cannon to continuously attack at a distance, to avoid the Tartar cavalry to form a wave charge formation, to rely on bird guns to strike at medium distances, to throw thunderbolts with handles at medium and close ranges, to rely on the terrain at close range, or to use tricycles and bicycles to build fortifications.

Through these four fire lines, even if a small number of Tartar cavalry entered, everyone could rely on the numerical advantage to annihilate them in the formation, and avoid the danger of the formation being breached.

And when the Tartar cavalry dispersed, the infantry attacked under the cover of their own cavalry to prevent the Tartar cavalry from regrouping, and then killed a return rifle.

Although Wang Zhibang's regiment suffered a huge sacrifice this time, it also tested the suitability of tactics through actual combat, and in this sense, this sacrifice was worth it.

After setting up camp, Yang Xuan rushed to the Wang regiment to inspect on horseback, and the morale of the whole regiment was surprisingly high.

Angry hair rushed to the crown, relying on the place, Xiaoxiao rain rest.

Raise your eyes, look up to the sky and roar, strong and fierce.

Thirty fame, dust and earth, eight thousand miles of clouds and moons.

Don't wait, the young man's head is white, empty and sad.

Jing Kang is ashamed, and it is still snowing;

When the courtiers hate, when will they perish.

Drive a long car and step through the lack of Helan Mountain.

Zhuang is hungry for Hu Lu R, laughing and thirsty for Hun blood.

To start from the beginning, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and face the sky.

As a traverser, of course, he knew that it was powerful, so he turned over and dismounted from a distance, and after singing with the soldiers, he walked to the front one by one and said to everyone.

From time to time, he patted the soldiers on the shoulder

Sometimes, when I saw some soldiers who were too seriously injured, they bent down and asked for a few more questions, and then asked to be sent to the field hospital immediately.

But what is gratifying is that these soldiers shook their heads one by one, and some even said: "My lord, I heard that there are many injuries in the field hospital, and I am nothing at all, I am not missing an arm or a lame leg or anything, as long as I bandage it well, there is no problem." ”

After feeling something rolling in his eyes and stabilizing his emotions, Yang Xuan came to the front desk and said to everyone: "Brothers, I know that you are a special army, and you are reorganized from the Loyal and Righteous Army as the backbone, including the local militia groups, and even the army composed of the remnants of Onishi.

Today, you have blocked the Tartar cavalry on the battlefield with your own bloody bodies, and if it were not for your stubborn resistance, we would not have been able to defeat the Tartar cavalry.

You are all heroes, you are all heroes, whether it is the soldiers of the loyal and righteous army in the past, or the local militia, not to mention the remnants of the Onishi.

You deserve the title of heroes, you are all heroes. ”

Although everyone was quite excited, everyone still seemed very shy, and many people said that the big man was a real hero and a hero.

After stabilizing his mood for a while, Yang Xuan asked: "Everyone, the loyal and righteous army can win consecutive battles, in addition to honor, the honor of soldiers, that is, there are clear rewards and punishments.

Your regiment has made great contributions in this battle, and when the time comes, the state of the king of the capital will report to give you the honor you deserve, but in addition, if you have any other requirements, as long as you say it, as long as it is reasonable, I will agree to you without hesitation. “

A man in his twenties stood up and said, "My lord, although the state affairs are difficult, we have done a very good job in the Loyal Army. Everyone is paid a full monthly salary, and a lot of rewards on the battlefield are handed over to us.

Now that everyone is a soldier, their parents can stand up and be a man in their hometown, and every year not only does they exempt one person in the family from paying a fee, but everyone is content.

My lord, in the past, being a soldier was a despised and unmanageable job, but I feel honored to be a soldier under my lords. ”

When everyone heard this, they also shouted: "Glory, my lord, we all feel honored." ”

Yang Xuan said with a smile: "Brothers, I have received everyone's wishes.

In ancient times, there were two kinds of scholars in China, one was the scribe we see now, and the other was all of you, the samurai.

If a country only values the samurai and does not pay attention to the scribes, it is a reckless force. If a country only values the scribes and does not pay attention to the samurai, it is destroying the Great Wall and committing a crime against the people.

Brothers, I, Yang Xuan, just did what I should do, brothers can block the Tartar attack this time, all I want to say is two words, relieve your anger. ”

Everyone exhaled with relief, and another soldier smiled and said, "My lord, the rest of the loyal and righteous army is good, but this is not good."

You can't drink after a big victory, if the adults can let everyone drink two sips, the brothers will really be relieved. ”

Yang Xuan's face froze, and he suddenly smiled: "Everyone, due to the food shortage, alcohol was forbidden in the army a few months ago.

Although there is no longer a food shortage, everyone knows that drinking is wrong, and now the Tartars are in the city, and it is far from the time to celebrate.

In this way, Wang Dusi, it should be called Wang Guerrilla now.

Wang Guerrilla, the brothers who are not injured will fight their teeth tonight, and everyone can eat r.

But these wounded brothers were so rare that they gathered together, and each of these wounded brothers gave one or two liquors as a reward. ”

When everyone heard this, they applauded.

Considering the heavy casualties of Guo Chonglie's 3rd Town (Division), coupled with the fact that the number of loyal and righteous troops on the front line increased greatly after the round with Chen Yingzong's troops, Yang Xuan decided to withdraw them to the rear to rest and recuperate, in exchange for the stronger 6th Town (Division) to rush to the front line to fight.

Unexpectedly, as soon as this idea of recuperation was proposed, it was opposed by Guo Chonglie and Wang Zhibang.

The two of them pouted and shouted, "My lord, although our battalion has suffered heavy casualties, it is not a defeated army, how can we go to the back to rest?"

Yang Xuan smiled and said, "The two generals are too worried, who said that only the remnants of the defeated generals will go back to rest?" Didn't there be no tricycles in the past, and it was very troublesome for everyone to move?

Now we have a tricycle, and we can reach it in three or four days for more than 200 miles.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have arranged for the troops with considerable casualties to go back to rest and recuperate, and saving food is one thing, although it is transported by water, although there are tricycles to transport, but the cost of grain transportation is still very large, and the grain transported from Chengdu and Shunqing to the front line is also consumed in the middle.

In the past, the reconstruction of soldiers and horses was mainly carried out by captives, and in the future, prisoners are of course one of the ways, but on the other hand, they also need to be transported from the rear.

Have you thought about it, on the front line, everyone has no time to train in order to fight all day long, and you can train in the rear.

You retreat to the rear to rest, I only have one request, that is, to give you three months, you will definitely bring me a full army of soldiers and horses again, do you say?

In addition, everyone feels that there is no, the battle is hot in the front, and there is no repercussion in the back, after you go back, you can send some battle heroes to various places to tell the local gentry about your great achievements, and you can let everyone see how our loyal army defeated the Tartar soldiers and horses.

Otherwise, we play in the front, and the back doesn't know, how is this good?

In addition, we also need someone to watch the house in the rear, and you have a whole training and a housekeeper, killing two birds with one stone, why not?

As soon as they heard about the housekeeping, the two were overjoyed, this time the Northern Expedition of the Loyal and Righteous Army, the strongest battalion left in Sichuan to watch the family, under Yang Xuan's good words, Wang Zhibang's regiment withdrew to Bazhou, Baoning Prefecture for training, and Guo Chonglie's regiment withdrew to Guangyuan Mansion for training.

At the time of the retreat, everyone only needed to bring two days of dry food, and there was no baggage.

Unlike other armies, the Loyal Army was equipped with a large number of bicycles and tricycles, and if the bicycles and tricycles were full when they marched into the army, many of them were empty when they returned.

In order to take care of the sick of the wounded, one or two wounded people often sat and lay on the tricycle without walking, which was unheard of in the past and was also an initiative of Yang Xuan.

Looking at the long queue and the soldiers sitting on the tricycle and fighting with a happy face, Yang Xuan smiled and said to Qian Bangqi and Ma Fengyu beside him: "The morale of the soldiers of the three armies is quite important when marching and fighting.

Now there are not only three-wheeled vehicles, but also four-wheeled carriages in the future, and after the treatment of the seriously injured is basically out of danger, it can be transported to the rear for recuperation. ”

Qian Bangxin wiped his eyes and sighed: "Seriously injured soldiers often need to be cared for, and transporting them to the rear can reduce the pressure on the front.

But, if there are such multiple injuries in the rear at once, I am afraid that the people's hearts will be unstable.

In addition, Lang Zhong is always needed to treat the seriously injured in the rear, and there is a shortage of military medical officers and nurses, so if the medical officers and nurses are divided into two groups, I am afraid that it will be even more insufficient. ”

Yang Xuan smiled, nodded and said, "We have to take precautions and find a way to solve it, of course the medical officers and nurses in the front can transfer two or three percent to the rear, there is no problem with this."

If there are not enough medical officers and nurses in the rear, doctors and women from good families can be recruited from the local government on the spot.

Although the Loyal and Righteous Army has not been recruited from the local government since its establishment, the medical officers are different, and the local officials can hire famous doctors from the local area to help treat them, and they can just give money after the treatment. ”

As soon as he heard that he had spent money to ask a famous doctor from the local area to help him, Qian Bangqi had no opinion, just like in his previous life, many big cottages had rough medical knowledge in Langzhong, if he could organize the treatment of the injured number, of course, it would be a good thing.
