Chapter 348: Qin Chuan Xu Huang

『Chapter error, click here to report』

After the battle, the clouds gradually disappeared, and the curtain gradually came to the curtain at the foot of Dabie Mountain as a team of bloodstained Han soldiers cleaned up the corpses, and the rebels were defeated in this battle, and the Han army was also a miserable victory.

The loss of more than 1,600 soldiers, and all of them were wounded, about 300 light and serious wounded could not fight for a short time, the original 3,500 and more than 1,800 barbarian soldiers were now left, but now they are nearly half of the soldiers, even if more than 5,000 rebels were beheaded and more than 800 people were captured, but this result was still only a crushing victory for Fuquan.

However, considering that this is a Jedi counterattack after an ambush battle, the counterattack was successful when the time and place were not on your side, and this result can also be said to be brilliant. I can't help but think about how to report this battle report when the time comes, to put it simply, avoid the truth and make it false, highlight the results of the counterattack, and mention less of your own losses, after all, compared to the victory of the counterattack after being ambushed, the loss of nearly half of the soldiers after being ambushed is obviously a bit of a loss, and you should mention it less if you can mention it less, as long as you highlight the hardships of your counterattack, this is quite a bit of a later generation of officials for the sake of political achievements to report good news and not bad news.

"Gah! Ga! Ga ......"

A few crows let out a low cry, which sounded very penetrating, and the corpses scattered all over the mountains added a myriad of horrors. They swept past the corpses in front of them, and after pecking a few mouthfuls of rotten flesh, they flew to the trees not far from the battlefield to watch, as if they were resentful of the Han soldiers who were wandering around the dead corpses, and disturbed their good plans to find food.

In a quiet corner of the battlefield, Wang Mou took Yang Hong and others, escorted by several soldiers, and slowly walked to Fu Quan, who was sitting on a broken wooden cart stained with a lot of blood, and saluted and said in a deep voice: "Prince, all the dead soldiers have been buried, and they have been engraved on a wooden tablet, and they have been prepared for him to be found in the future." ”

"Yes!" Nodding, Fu Quan, who was looking at the corpses piled up on the battlefield, thought about things in his heart, and answered after hearing it, and then looked at a clearing in the distance, where was the cemetery of the fallen soldiers of this battle. At this moment, there are still many Han soldiers wandering around this randomly selected cemetery, looking at them, most of them are sad and indignant, probably saying goodbye to their colleagues who were still together yesterday but died today.

Originally, with the meaning of Fuquan, for the remains of these fallen soldiers, of course, they all hoped to bring them back to Ba County, after all, they all died for their own fighting, and now the corpses are in a foreign land, and it is worth saying that Fuquan makes them return to their roots.

It's just that Jing and Yi are thousands of miles apart, and unless these people are burned to ashes, Fuquan won't be able to take it out for so long. However, the Han army couldn't collect so many annoying clay pots for a while, so naturally they couldn't hold them, so they could only choose to bury them in batches and make tombstones with wooden board carvings. can only wait for him to calm down the chaos and war, and then consider whether to come back to remove the remains of the dead soldiers from the graves, and take them back to their hometown in Ba County together, after all, this is also a soul returning to their hometown.

As for the dead rebel soldiers, the Han army built several open-air crematories made of wood and burned them directly, directly turning their corpses into nutrients and fertilizer for nature. For the soldiers of the Han army, what happened today, they naturally would not be so kind to dig graves and erect monuments for them, it was not that Fuquan said that there might be a plague if the corpses were not disposed of in time, and it was impossible for these Han troops to let the corpses of those dead rebels be eaten by the crows in the sky and left.

After Wang Mou reported the disposal of the corpses on the battlefield, he did not leave immediately, but his face was embarrassed, Fu Quan felt something different, and asked, "Is there anything else wrong with Yuantai?" ”

"Exactly, back to the prince, the soldiers in the army suffered a big loss, and everyone led the troops, nearly two percent of it was difficult to fight again, if you go to aid Shu County, I am afraid that the whole army will be in danger of annihilation, and the prince should think twice."

Wang Mou saluted and whispered, everyone knows that Fuquan will come to Lujiang's aid this time, but he will not withdraw his troops easily, after all, there is an order from the emperor to "destroy thieves in January". And Wang Mou has also been an official for a long time, and he also indirectly understands and knows the changes in the imperial court, and the battle between the Song family and the He family's relatives must be stimulating Fu Quan to continue to make meritorious contributions and consolidate the impression of the Song family in the emperor's heart, so Fu Quan will do whatever he says about the difficult "January thief".

Now with Fuquan sending troops in mid-May, most of the lost territory has been recovered, and at the same time the rebel combat strength is formulated, the Han army can fight, and now as long as the Huang Sui dog thief is destroyed before mid-June, it can win the emperor's favor, Wang Mou thinks about it and knows that even if Fuquan encounters the ambush of Dabie Mountain and suffers heavy losses, he will not change his mind. Therefore, Wang Mou's voice of proposing to retreat was very small, just to avoid angering Fuquan.

Originally, Wang Mou could not mention this suggestion, but as a minister of Fuquan, he naturally couldn't let Fuquan lead the army to destruction. Now there are more than 1,000 soldiers who can fight, if you go to resist Huang Sui's more than 100,000 rebels, even if most of them are coerced farmers and are not well-equipped, but the soldiers under Fuquan are not gods, and it is impossible to slaughter the rebels like killing pigs.

Fu Quan didn't speak after hearing this, because this was also what he was thinking about just now, the lack of troops had become the key to restricting him from rescuing Lujiang. Although there are countless examples of the regular army playing miscellaneous troops in history, there are countless examples of winning more with less, but if you want to win more with less, you must always have the confidence to win more with less, right?

Now the soldiers in Fu Quan's hands are no different from a remnant army in the end, and the spirit of the previous battles is almost exhausted, even if it has just won a big counterattack, but this still can't change the trend of the morale of the troops for various reasons. If this is the case, if Fu Quan still wants to take more than 1,000 soldiers to attack the hundreds of thousands of Huang Sui rebels, it is not a "less to win more", but a "stone with an egg" without any suspense, of course, his army is an "egg", and Huang Sui's army is a "stone".

Just as he was thinking about it, a few more people came in the distance, and I saw Yu Zhong, who was sweating profusely with a medicine box on his back, and hurriedly came to Fuquan under the escort of several soldiers.

The years have long sharpened the child who lost his father into a man, perhaps because he often followed Hua Tuo in his childhood, or maybe because the ancients were generally precocious, and Fuquan looked at Yu Zhong, and always felt that the child he rescued back then was more and more like an old doctor who helped the world and saved people, and he was full of a "virgin" atmosphere.

Yu Zhong has been taking on the responsibility of his healer since he went out with Fuquan, after all, for Fuquan, there is a divine doctor disciple who does not need it, it is simply a violent thing, isn't it? Seeing Yu Zhong coming at this moment, Fu Quan guessed that there must be something wrong with the wounded in the army, otherwise, with this guy's temper, unless he asked him, Fu Quan knew that he would definitely not come to him easily.

Sure enough, with the words that Yu Zhong said after saluting, Fu Quan once again fell into the dilemma of retreating and continuing to march, because Yu Zhong said, "The king of the army does not stay and waits for insufficient medicine, and if the wounded soldier does not have enough medicine to change the dressing, he will die from the wound."

As a man with a modern mind, no one values the lives of soldiers more than Fu Quan, even if he never treats soldiers as human beings in every war, but only when they are cannon fodder to command, but it is only war.

On weekdays, Fu Quan is still very concerned about the lives of soldiers, because he knows that in ancient times with low medical technology, many wounded soldiers often died without treatment. In previous years, Fuquan was the main army, in charge of all local resources, even if medical craftsmen and medicine supplies were recruited after the war, they had time to be treated.

But this time is different, thousands of miles to rescue Jingzhou, who knows if there will be an accident in Jingzhou, where people are not familiar with life, there are many examples of guest soldiers being killed by local officials and people in all dynasties. Therefore, before the expedition to Jingzhou at this moment, Fuquan not only brought Yu Zhong, a disciple of the divine doctor, and recruited many famous medical craftsmen, but also bought more than ten kinds of herbs for the treatment of trauma, such as Wang Buliuxing, Continuation, Zelan, Diyu, Bian Qing, etc., in Ba County, and the finished gold sore medicine was also collected.

Now, Yu Zhong told himself that these drugs for the treatment of trauma were about to run out, so he couldn't help but make a decision that Fu Quan had to make a decision, whether to retire and rectify, and wait for a favorable opportunity to break the yellow grain. Or march on this, join Lu Kang in Shu County, Lujiang, go to Shu County to rest, and then make another map.

Although there is no difference between the two, don't forget, Huang Sui will not be stupid to watch the remnants of the Han army go to Shu County to converge, since there is this ambush, who knows if there will be a next time?

In short, if you decide to continue to go to Shu County to support, it is still unknown what the road ahead will be, and it is not certain that the whole army will be wiped out.

Before Yu Zhong could decide where to go, there was a commotion in front of him, and following the prestige, he saw more than a dozen soldiers walking slowly, and Xu Huang and a young Confucian were tightly embraced among them.

Seeing Xu Huang's unkind face, Fu Quan secretly suspected in his heart, could it be that the Confucian scholar offended his subordinates, a young and old general with a very comparable temperament?

This is a strange thing, after all, he knows Xu Huang's temper very well, although he is also jealous and hateful, but his temperament is more planned and then moved, and it is really not simple to offend him. couldn't help but be curious in Fu Quan's heart, and secretly said where the Confucian came from.

A few people walked in, and Xu Huang stepped forward and saluted: "I've seen the military marquis." And although he led his soldiers, he did not salute, but still looked at the Confucian priest, as if he was afraid to let the Confucian escape if he was not careful.

"Hmm!" Fu Quan bowed his head in response, then looked at the Confucian scholar, and asked Xu Huang suspiciously: "Gongming detained this person, why did he come?" ”

After hearing the sound on the other side, Xu Huang's face was embarrassed, and his voice suddenly became much softer, and he replied: "Back to the military marquis, this person is the person who saw through the military marquis's clever plan in Qichun County that day. ”

After saying that, Xu Huang stopped talking, but his face became a little redder. However, everyone present understood, and secretly laughed at the young and old Xu Gongming, who also had such a good face as a young man, and they said from Xu Huang that the Confucian scholar was in Qichun County after seeing through the Fuquan Baili Surprise attack on the city of Shiren, of course they knew that it was he who hurt Xu Huang, who originally wanted to steal the city, and finally almost lost his horse. So when Xu Huang mentioned this Confucian scholar, he naturally looked embarrassed and even shy, after all, this is also Xu Huang's ugly thing, isn't it?

After hearing that the detainee was the Confucian who tested Xu Huang with "Qiao Gong of Anhui County has two sons", Fu Quan's interest in this person was inexplicable. Of course, this is not to say that he wants to recruit this person, mainly because he is a little interested in the famous "Jiangdong Er Qiao" in the future, since this person mentioned Qiao Gong, he should naturally know something about his two national daughters, it is said that Er Qiao is still a few years old little Lori.

Kindness? No, I'm not interested in Little Lori's second Joe, but I'm just interested in the reputation of those two...... Well, that's it, you must see you when you have time.

"Ahem! Cough! Wang Mou, a henchman beside him, obviously saw his father-in-law's rare absent-mindedness, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but this did not prevent him, as an adjutant, from reminding his boss.

After this reminder, Fu Quan came back to his senses and understood that he was out of his mind, but he didn't say anything else, and the subordinates around him who also observed Fu Quan's strange appearance did not say anything, after all, Shangguan's face should be protected.

Continuing to look at the Confucian scholar, Fu Quan asked sharply, "Who are you?" Who is the surname, and why is it a thief? ”

Of course, that Confucian scholar was none other than Qin Chuan, who saw that the rebel uprising had little hope of success and fled early. I saw Qin Chuan shake off the dirty robe on his body, and said with a straight face: "Jiangxia Qin Chuan, the words are rare, and I have seen Fuba County." There is no way in the place, the people rise up, Sichuan is forced by thieves, forced to follow the thieves, and now the Han Dynasty has a time to escape. ”

In his tone, what Qin Chuan said was upright, reasonable, and it didn't seem to be fraudulent at all, he had already found a good reason to cover up his thieving business. Now unless there are traitors who are familiar with him, it is possible to expose him, but obviously, except for Huang Sui, Ma Hu and others in the rebels, how can anyone else know about him?

And now, for Qin Chuan, his original leader Ma Hu has been killed by the Han army's crossbows, and as for Huang Sui, he is still leading the rebels to besiege the city in Shu County at this moment, and neither of them are here, who else can know if he is forced to be a thief, or a premeditated and willing thief?

Qin Chuan is an unscrupulous person for fame and fortune, and he joined the rebels to have a good development, but this does not mean that he has no heart, just like his words, Qin Chuan never told anyone, in order to let fewer and fewer people in the rebels know their situation.

Fortunately, Qin Chuan was originally a Han man who lived together with Han barbarians, and even if he usually looked suspicious and hid himself deeply, he did not let other rebels suspect him. After all, in the final analysis, although this Qin Chuan seemed withdrawn after the uprising, his background was also a kind of his own person for those rebels, right?

However, it was said that since Qin Chuan escaped, he spread his children and ran to a secluded corner in the far side of the battlefield, waiting for the battle to end, and then came to surrender. When there was no more fighting on the battlefield over there, Qin Chuan went straight to the battlefield, ready to casually find the Han army to explain his identity and show his sincerity. In his opinion, as long as he finally sees Fuquan and tells the rebel army the truth and truth, with the importance of his own information, at least he can mix up the qualifications for promotion, right?

It's just that the road is narrow, but Qin Chuan came out by mistake and it was Xu Huang's soldiers who came to search for the fleeing rebels, which made him passive all of a sudden. After all, as Xu Huang's soldiers, they found the Confucian scholars who surrendered to Cheng, and they could still hand over Qin Chuan to others?

Of course, they will only hand it over to Xu Huang, which also caused Xu Huang, who was slightly embarrassed, to meet Qin Chuan, who made him gnash his teeth, when he attacked Qichun County before.

Fortunately, Xu Huang is not a person who holds grudges, and after asking Qin Chuan's intentions, he still endured a breath in his heart and brought Qin Chuan to see Fuquan. Otherwise, if it were replaced by other small-minded generals, Qin Chuan's little life might be in the hands of that general, after all, the general used the reason of "thieves are cheating", and he ended you with a knife, where would people who don't know the inside story have any objections?
