There is no bloody scene in the world that beats the fight between people. The enemy of mankind is always oneself, and only human beings can kill their own kind on such a large scale and efficiently. Even the largest tsunami earthquake that mankind has ever encountered is nothing more than that, and it may not be as good as that.

Under the Gubei Pass, tens of thousands of corpses were scattered all over the place, and they had only spent one night, and they already had a faint fishy smell. If you stay in the scorching sun for another day, the taste is not difficult to imagine.

The Jurchens could ignore the lives of these slaves, but the Jurchens also cared about their own safety. Countless sleepless, hungry and thirsty Goryeo people were driven out of the enclosure and, under the strict guard of the Jurchens, began to collect their bodies.

The Song people at the head of the city did not fire a single feather arrow. This tacit understanding on the battlefield is the same everywhere. The matter of collecting corpses is beneficial to everyone.

Tens of thousands of corpses were thrown directly into a creek, which had a natural depression and no need to dig a pit. Just dig up the soft soil by the stream and fill it, which will save a lot of trouble.

The corpses were stacked layer by layer, covered with shallow soil, and the stream was blocked from the way, but it did not have much strength, and it could not break through the congestion of tens of thousands of corpses, and even the entire stream was not filled with corpses.

But I can't imagine what it will be like here when these corpses really start to decompose in a few days.

The Goryeo people, for the Jurchens, seem to have become a burden, and there are still forty or fifty thousand Goryeo people left, even Wanyan Wu Qimai is also having a headache, and he doesn't know what to do.

It's too wasteful to kill them all. It must not be released, and it will not have much effect on the battle.

But on the other hand, as long as this war is won, these Goryeo people will also be extremely important assets and even extremely important production tools in the future, and these Goryeo people will know how to cultivate better than the Jurchens.

It was this whole day, and there was such a truce. The Jurchens were busy tying up the Goryeo one by one, and the ropes were not enough, so they directly took off the clothes of the Goryeo and tore them into strips of cloth. In this way, it is also for the sake of safety, and these Goryeo people should not be allowed to bring the slightest worry to the Jurchens.

That night, the Jurchens ate and drank to their heart's content, taking out all the best food and feasting on it. A good night's sleep, and some light breakfast early the next morning, the horn has risen.

The entire Jurchen nation, the entire Dajin Empire. Life and death are here today.

The future and glory of the Wanyan clan is today.

Round face, high forehead, slightly smaller eyes. The faces of the Jurchens are slightly different from those of the Han people, and they are extraordinarily resolute, and there is a sense of death in the perseverance.

Die, this thing. For different people, it really has different meanings. On the surface, the more relaxed and wealthy people are, the more afraid they are of death. The more difficult it is for people to live, the less they cherish life.

Although it is only relatively speaking, it is also a slightly superficial conclusion. But it also illustrates a truth, that is, the root of the Jurchens' war bravery, life is not easy, even in ordinary life, they are used to seeing life and death, and they also need to fight with their lives. If you die in battle, it doesn't look so terrible.

National righteousness, although the Jurchens do not know this kind of vocabulary. But life and death, everyone understands.

Zheng Zhi heard the sound of the horn, and also went up to the city tower, with a serious expression to the extreme, without saying a word, staring at the more than 30,000 Jurchens in front of him for a long time.

The Jurchens are a people worthy of admiration. This is Zheng Zhi's thoughts from the bottom of his heart.

The ethnic minorities in the white mountains and black waters will not really perish, for generations, the land covered by snow all year round, still lives these round-faced and thin-eyed peoples. He is still fighting against the world, against nature, against everything that nature has to offer, and respecting everything that nature has given him.

The soldiers at the head of the city looked a little nervous compared to those resolute Jurchens. The last time the Jurchens attacked the city, many people had already attacked the city wall, so the confidence of these soldiers inevitably suffered some damage.

But the preparations were still in order, where the stones were placed, where the sassalwoods were placed. Where are the arrows?

Those were responsible for transporting the wounded, those were responsible for transporting arrows, and those were responsible for treating the wounded. Busy but not chaotic.

The craftsmen also set up their own affairs under the city walls, ready to repair the broken bowstrings at any time. The production of bowstrings is also an extremely complex process, the ligaments of the cow, after drying, are repeatedly gently beaten with a mallet to turn the dried ligaments into small silk threads, and then these small silk threads are kneaded into tight thin ropes.

This process lasts at least a year. This is one of the reasons why cattle are subject to government control, and cowhides, whether iron or leather, are used. Beef tendon to be used to make bowstrings. Horn slices are also one of the raw materials for making bows and crossbows.

Cattle are not only agricultural products. It is also a military controlled product.

Next to the stairs under the castle, the feathered arrows that had just been made and had not had time to be lacquered were piled up in bundles and piled up into a mountain.

In a moment, countless bonfires were set up above the city. In the iron pot of the bonfire, boiling oil was boiling, and the dung in the pit was also boiling, and it smelled for ten miles, even Zheng Zhi was also smoked and frowned.

The number of artillery pieces, at last, broke through fifty guns. Ling Zhen also rushed to Gubei and personally inspected the cannons one by one, and even knelt on the ground to repeatedly check all the places where the cannons were being fired, checking whether there were cracks in the cannon body.

"Those who slack off, slash immediately!"

"Flee, behead, the whole family is in the army!"

"Anyone who disturbs the morale of the army will be beheaded immediately, and the whole family will be beheaded!"

"Those who have made meritorious contributions will be rewarded twice!"

The commanders who galloped back and forth shouted military orders over and over again with all their strength.

The stakes in this war were too great for anyone to arise any questions about the war. It is not allowed to slack off in battle, let alone flee, and it is an unforgivable crime to speak indiscriminately and disturb the morale of the army and affect others.

The way to govern the army is to pay equal attention to grace and power. At this time, the reward is an incentive, but the power of the slash is an important means to control the soldiers who can only fight to the death and must not have the slightest other thing.

This war concerns the entire country and nation. It's no longer the lives of these soldiers in front of me. If this battle is defeated and the Jurchens enter the customs, this consequence is unacceptable to anyone.

There is ruthlessness in the army, and there is ruthlessness in military law. In the final analysis, war is merciless.

"Add one more, support those who hesitate in the back, and cut them immediately!" Zheng Zhi ordered again with great seriousness. Now the battle with the Jurchens depends on the number of military men, and the battle is together, that is, one team after another is added to the city, and under the heavy casualties, the people who go to the city behind cannot be allowed to hesitate at all.

One action of any person will affect the people next to him, and more and more people will be affected.

Under the urn city, there was still a repeated shout: "Support those who hesitate, immediately behead." ”

People are people, people can be brave, and they will also be cowardly. Courage and cowardice are often the subconscious choices in the mind at that moment, and this choice is affected by many things.

The preparation is so meticulous. This is also Zheng Zhi's basic concept of war command, meticulous command of war, can have an additional guarantee of victory.

"Knock knock knock..."

The sun is rising, and it is already scorching. Even if you stand on top of the city, you are already sweating.

The Jurchen infantry battle formation still didn't look very neat. But the momentum of the Jurchens is incomparable. Every step forward does not show the slightest cowardice.

Perhaps the retreat of the Jurchens at this time should be a better choice. The war reached this point, with the loss of more than 15,000 people, and Wanyan Lou also died in battle. The retreat obviously did not conform to the average Jurchen warrior's understanding of war.

Retreat is also not in line with the strategy of the Daikin Empire at this time. Daikin Empire, take a step back, and the country will fall apart.

Those mature women who have been humiliated and wronged and tortured are Zhen, Xi people, Khitan people, Han people, Bohai people, and Goryeo people. In addition, Zheng Zhi, who will be out of the customs immediately, will make the huge territory that the Dajin Empire has brought down become a castle in the air.

If the Jurchens retreat today, they will retreat again and again, and retreat into the jungle again, and even retreat into the jungle, and the Khitans, mature Jurchens, Xi people, and Bohai people in the jungle will not let go of their Jurchen neighbors.

The Jurchens had no way back. To rule the vast majority of people with a very small number of people is to walk on thin ice.

Niu Da moved a seat and let Zheng Zhi sit under the dilapidated city tower, and then held a heavy wooden shield in front of Zheng Zhi, and there were seven or eight large wooden shields on the left and right.

Those who stood straight around were all commanders. These commanding legs are the command of this war.

Looking up at the rising sun in the east, it was not very dazzling, but the air was filled with heat. The temperature at this time was completely different from when he left Gubei to finish fighting Yan Lou's room.

"Order, the two-thousand-pound cannon will be fired first, and the small cannon will wait first." Zheng Zhi finally issued the first war order. The tone was not so loud and small, nor nervous, but steady and low.

The smell in the air, like the streets and alleys on Chinese New Year's Eve when I was a child, is actually not unpleasant, the smell of gunsmoke, for Chinese, is not strange, and even some habits, some people also like to smell the smell of this gunpowder.

The Jurchens, who had only charged after two or three hundred steps, had already started running three or four miles away.

Artillery, eventually, will change the way warfare is conducted. It's just that the artillery production is too difficult, and when the Manchu Qing Dynasty pacified the three feudatories after entering the customs, the power of one country to create a hundred red-coated cannons was already the power of the whole country. At the time of the decisive battle of the Ming and Qing dynasties, both sides continued to build artillery, both making and buying from the Dutch. It's only thirty-seven.

Zheng Zhi has been working hard to build the accumulated family foundation in the past few years, and the total number of large and small cannons is only about sixty, of which fifty are gathered at the Gubei Pass. The remaining dozen or so doors were left on the Cangbei ship.
