Chapter 510: Prepare for Celebration
In any case, the 100,000 Liao soldiers were driven away, which was a brilliant achievement in the history of the Great Song Dynasty, and the celebration banquet still had to be held. Chao Gai handed over the celebration to Gongsun Sheng, not only to do it enthusiastically, but not to be extravagant and wasteful, the headache was handed over to Gongsun Sheng, Gongsun Sheng accepted the task, and began to prepare for the celebration two days later, at least the three armies should celebrate together and enjoy with the people.
Chao Gai took Luo Yun to see a doctor for the wounded, the wounded barracks were overcrowded, the lightly injured sat on the edge of the bed, and the seriously injured were lying on the bed. Killing 1,000 enemies and self-inflicted 800, this battle annihilated almost 50,000 Liao soldiers, there were thousands of wounded soldiers on the Jeju army's side, and it was not easy for the wounded soldiers on a cold day.
Chao Gai came to a tent again, the tent was lit with a stove, and more than a dozen wounded soldiers surrounded the stove to bake the fire, one of the wounded soldiers was also a meritorious soldier, he cut down three Liao soldiers by himself, but let a dying Liao soldier cut off his foot, and the medical level of this year could not be connected, and he could only face disability.
Seeing Chao Gai come in, he went over and hugged Chao Gai, crying: "I don't want to retire, I still want to be a soldier, and I can still fight with one foot." ”
Chao Gai patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are not retiring, you are just changing positions." Veterans do not retire, they just change positions. You are true heroes, and all the exploits will be recorded. ”
The wounded soldiers had tears in their eyes one by one, but everyone understood that this battle was not fought for a certain person, but for the dispute between the Central Plains and the Liao State for hundreds of years.
A wounded soldier said: "Compared with those comrades who died in battle, we are lucky, the Liao soldiers who fought in this battle fled in embarrassment, even if they died, it was worth it." ”
Chao Gai nodded and said, "Everyone can rest assured, there will be no more tears when the blood is shed, and I promise you that the promised compensation and reward will not be less than that of a big son." ”
The soldiers don't have much culture, but they are still very caring in the Jeju army, and they are recuperating from their injuries one by one.
As soon as Chao Gai came out of the wounded barracks, Luda rushed over, and when he met him, he asked: "Brother, why don't you give the order to attack with all your might, even if you kill another 10,000 people, you must leave the Liao soldiers behind." ”
Chao Gai said: "According to the understanding of the Ruda brothers, I, Chao Gai, am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? ”
Luda said: "My brother must be the first in every battle, charging ahead, not for those who are afraid of death." ”
"Then I'm for the greedy for money?" Chao Gai asked again.
Luda said with a smile: "My brother opened a porridge shed, distributed medicinal herbs, and rescued countless victims. Who dares to say that his brother is greedy for money, and the first one in the Sprinkle family will not spare him. ”
Chao Gai patted Luda on the shoulder and said, "Call Qin Ming, come to the camp together, I will understand it as soon as I tell you, if the virtuous brother still thinks that I am wrong, then I will punish myself with fifty lashes." ”
Qin Ming, like Luda, also has such questions, as for Huang Xin and Yang Zhi, they are all people with active brains, and they can understand the reasons for this. Li Kui, Bao Xu, Fan Rui, Shi Jin and others are similar to worshipping Chao Gai, and Chao Gai's orders are whatever they are.
The camp tent was empty, Wu Yong went to continue recruiting engineers, and Gongsun Sheng went to prepare for the evening celebration.
Chao Gai asked Luo Yun to open a huge map, which was not only the map of the Great Song Dynasty, but also the Liao Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom, the Western Xia Kingdom, and so on. Of course, due to technical reasons, the mapping is not very accurate, and it can only be said to be an approximation.
Chao Gai pointed to the map and said, "Why the Liao Kingdom is going south, both of you know it." ”
Qin Ming said: "The Liao State is at war with the Jin State, and there is a shortage of grain and grass, so this is why they went south to rob the grain and grass. ”
Ruda also nodded and said, "Exactly." ”
"According to the information we have so far, the Jin State has robbed at least half of the territory of the Liao State, and the strength of the Liao State has been greatly weakened. The strength of the newly emerging Jin State is amazing, and the soldiers are very strong in combat. Once the Jin State completely annexes the Liao State in a short period of time, where will his next target be, you will understand here. Chao Gai said.
Luda thought about it for a while, patted his head, and said, "Oh, the Sprinkle family understands." To the north is a bitter cold barren land, where can we compare to our Central Plains flower world, once the Jin State annexed the Liao State, the strength will swell, the belligerent Jin soldiers will definitely wave their troops south, and our Great Song Dynasty army may be difficult to resist. ”
Qin Ming is not a wood, after all, they are all perennial soldiers, Chao Gai said this, he understood.
Qin Ming said: "Although our Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State are hostile now, they are in a relationship of cold lips and teeth when facing the emerging Jin State, so we can't kill the Liao soldiers, otherwise the Jin soldiers will come soon." ”
Luda stepped on it, got up and said to Chao Gai: "The Sprinkle family spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and asks my brother for forgiveness." ”
Chao Gai hurriedly helped Luda up and said, "Brother Luda is quick to talk, I didn't explain it in advance, how can I blame you." Hurry up, at tonight's celebration banquet, the two of you will have a few more drinks. In addition, I heard that the granddaughter of a farmer has taken a fancy to you, do you want me to be a matchmaker and introduce you to your daughter-in-law. ”
Ruda's face turned red with a swish, and he hurriedly shook his hand: "Don't drink, don't drink." The Sprinkler family doesn't drink tonight, and the Sprinkler family leads the troops on duty, so that everyone can drink happily. How can there be any granddaughter of the owner who looks at the Sprinkle family, but the Sprinkle family is a monk. ”
Chao Gai saw that Luda was very shy, and he didn't want to mention it again, and said: "Okay, the celebration is divided into two nights, and the army is divided into two halves, so that the enemy will not have a chance to take advantage of it." ”
At this time, the defeated soldiers of the Liao soldiers had retreated, divided into several groups of men and horses to cross the Hutuo River, under the protection of the Liao cavalry, steadily passed the Zhending City, and then passed the Lingshou County, and went north.
Wang Jin and Pang Wanchun led more than 8,000 cavalry to follow along the road, and the Liao soldiers only had to rush honestly.
As for the border army of Zhending Mansion, it was really disappointing, and they hardly went out of the city, and they were bent on defending the city.
Seeing that the Liao soldiers were out of the border more than ten miles forward, Pang Wanchun sighed: "Although there are more than 40,000 Liao soldiers who have fled, nearly 60,000 have stayed in the Great Song Dynasty, which can be regarded as a huge victory. ”
Wang Jin said: "That's true, if our Jeju army doesn't come, the Liao soldiers can be generous with cattle, sheep, and grain to retreat." I didn't expect the Hebei border army to be so weak, the civilian officials were greedy for money, the generals were afraid of death, and the soldiers had no heart to fight. It's not as tough as ordinary people. ”
