In the sunset, Yun Yue looked at the grassland full of blood and human cruelty, and the red of the sunset and the red of blood blended together. There seems to be a different kind of artistic conception!

Not interested in looking at this Shura slaughterhouse-like place again, Yun Yue turned around and went back to the car. The last "friends of the king" were also eliminated, and the battle on the battlefield could be said to be a complete victory. The price to be paid was also quite heavy, half of an infantry division was basically disabled. The casualties amounted to more than half, and several divisions lost more than a third of the battle. Basically intact, only the two divisions led by Fan Zeng. They had been guarding trebuchets and three-bow crossbows, and had little major engagements with the enemy.

Four cavalry divisions suffered even heavier losses, and three cavalry divisions were reduced by two-thirds. The remaining one was slightly better, but the attrition was also a terrifying thirty percent.

The loss of the Modao Battalion made Yun Yue's heart twitch, and the casualties reached a terrifying five hundred. You know, those are warriors carefully trained by the Yun family. Each one of them is a priceless treasure. However, to Yun Yue's relief, because of the protection of heavy armor. Most of them were injured and not too serious. After a period of recuperation, more than eighty percent can return to the battlefield.

Not to mention the guards led by Ao Canghai, they met the elite of the Greek army. The casualties also reached as high as 500, and all of them were seriously injured. Under the desperate counterattack of the Asura guards, who can please him. A lot of people who have passed away are old faces. followed Yun Yue to fight in the east and west, and made countless achievements. Unexpectedly, he fell in such an encounter.

The one with the most complete system and the most complete combat effectiveness is Zhang Han. They were dealing with camel cavalry, and the sword of the Arabs could not penetrate their armor. Their sabers, chains, and maces can be slashed and killed with impunity.

The Macedonians used their courage and iron blood. The mountains of corpses and rivers of blood on the ground have proved that they have the strength to conquer Eurasia. If it is not the Qin army led by the Yun family. It's someone else. Although victory could be achieved in the end, Yun Yue thought that the casualties should be several times greater than this number.

The cruel side of war is vividly expressed today.

"What's next?" The words that came out of Yun Yue's mouth made the carriage fall silent. Wei Fang and Fan Zeng did not speak, and the generals were all gathering to pacify the troops. There are only three of them!

"Master Hou! I don't think it's appropriate for our army to fight again, and scouts should be excluded. Find out if the enemy army has any other teams, and the main force should return to Pingliang to rest. This battle has already wounded the bones and bones of our army. There is no three or five years. I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover. "This army can be said to have been trained by Wei Fang. He knew more about this army than any other person, including Yun Yue.

"Fan Zeng, what do you say?" Yun Yue saw that Fan Zeng didn't speak, so she simply called names.

"Although the battle was won, the casualties of our army were really large. It is also appropriate to go back and recuperate, if this is only the vanguard of the enemy army. We also have to inform Xianyang of this matter and ask Xianyang to send troops over. Otherwise, it would be difficult to resist with Hou Ye's strength alone. ”

"Then you also agree to withdraw?" Yun Yue stared at Fan Zeng's eyes and asked, in these eyes Yun Yue saw something else.

"Yes! Troops should be withdrawn! However, our army should scatter rangers. Loot the fleeing enemy soldiers. In case the enemy has backup. We can also reduce the strength of the enemy's forces, and they are also an excellent labor force. Can fill the cool slave holes. After this battle, there are probably no less than 20,000 or 30,000 strong laborers, which is a large number. Fan Zeng saw Yun Yue staring at him, and hurriedly continued.

"Anything else?" Yun Yue asked again.

"Uh......! Master Hou, we should start sending people to explore the Western Regions and familiarize ourselves with the situation in the Western Regions. This battle came suddenly, if there was another one. Pingliang ......" Fan Zeng looked at Wei Fang, and then at Yun Yue hurriedly lowered his head.

"Well, your suggestion is good. Take the job of capturing the captives, you will preside over it! Departure in the morning, and the darkness of the night is incomprehensible. ”

"Whoa!" Fan Zeng wiped a handful of cold sweat from his forehead and walked out backwards. In the tent, there was silence again.

"Wei Yizi, how is this person?" After a long time, Yun Yue asked.

"Fan Zeng? is a good person, who draws inferences from words and deeds. It's just that I'm more cautious, I'm afraid that I will blame the old man for talking too much. Swallowing and spitting, the anger in the chest is not right, and it is enough to be a strategist. But if you are entrusted with a high position, I am afraid that it will be embarrassing! Wei Fang said as he stroked his beard.

Yun Yue's heart sank, and he was really an old guy who had become a fine man. It's a mule or a horse, and you don't have to pull it out to know whether it's good or bad.

Fan Zeng in history is all conspiracies, and none of them are such upright conspiracy as Wei Fang. The appointment of talents above the court must require this kind of person who is good at scheming. Intrigue and trickery can only be played in the dark. Let people see through it at a glance, and they will inevitably fall behind.

"That's what I mean, after we go back, our military system should be further reformed. I thought about the establishment of a staff headquarters in the Taiwei Mansion, which was specially responsible for formulating battle plans, gathering intelligence, and studying campaigns and tactics. Summing up the gains and losses of combat experience, Ben Hou felt that Fan Zeng was a suitable candidate for chief of staff. What do you think? ”

Yun Yue had long wanted to set up an organization like the General Staff Headquarters, but now these things are actually on her shoulders. Now there are the right people, why don't you hurry up and do it when you get rid of the baggage?

"Hmmm! The proposal of the General Staff Headquarters is very good, and before the battle, it is necessary to draw up a detailed plan, coordinate the mobilization of various guarantees such as drinking water, bows, crossbows, arrows, siege equipment, and other baggage. These things need to be handled by a dedicated person. In addition, intelligence collection is also very important, and we have the map of the Hou Ye to make the march and combat like a tiger. However, the local cultural meteorology and other days also need to be collected.

As for summing up the gains and losses after the war, it is even more important. In order to avoid the mistakes of predecessors, these water mills are very important.

Fan Zeng is a thoughtful person, if he can do this with a clear mind. It's not a capable official! Wei Fang listened to Yun Yue's proposal and raised his hands in approval. Fan Zeng's talent has become a threat to him. Now Yun Yue offered to send Fan Zeng to work under him. Being able to stare at this kid, Wei Fang is naturally willing.

"Then it's decided, and when I go back, I'll go to the city staff headquarters. Send him some officers to serve as the messengers we have discussed. The order goes down, and tomorrow we will pull out the camp and turn back. Send someone back to dispatch the four-wheeled carriage, and the wounded will be sent away in the carriage tonight. Veterans are treasures! With these veterans as yeast, Ben Hou can easily steam a pot of soldier dolls. ”

Just when Yun Yue was discussing with Wei Fang, on the dark grassland. A man covered in blood was struggling to climb onto the horse's back with his mangled hands, his golden armor reflecting the cold light in the moonlight! (To be continued.) )
