Chapter 176: Such a Great Victory

It wasn't until the king gave the order that many of the royal soldiers found that their legs were weak and their whole bodies were weak, and thousands of people slowly walked towards Gongyi City in the north. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Physically strong and psychologically good, such as Wang Sunjian, Liu Yun and others, are making great strides, as if they can fight another battle, a little worse or a little weak, or psychologically have not yet accepted such a cruel battle, and they are holding the spear in their hands and moving forward step by step. What was even worse was that the two of them helped each other, and then they moved, most of them were slightly injured in the waist and legs, and the few were young recruits who vomited and vomited or were dizzy when they saw the corpses all over the ground. The seriously injured were supported by the Gongyi soldiers who did not participate in the battle, or simply carried on a stretcher, and when Zhou Bian went out this time, he brought most of the wound medicine in Luoyang City according to the prescription of the former Qin Shen Doctor, according to the results of the previous test, after using this medicine, most of these wounded soldiers can still recover.

Looking at the army that returned from this great victory and was staggering forward at this time, he knew that there were still many people who had fallen on this land forever, although the Gongyi soldiers were still cleaning up the battlefield and still did not know the specific number of deaths, but in terms of the number of people who could return to Gongyi, there were still no less than a thousand people who could no longer raise the spear in his hand. On the rickety chariot, Zhou Bian sighed deeply, war is the accumulation of human lives, it is like this in any era and everywhere, if war can be avoided, Zhou Bian will still avoid it, but why did he not cross through the powerful Tang Dynasty, even if it was in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, it was better, and it was not like the current Warring States era and the world of great disputes.

The north bank of this Luoshui is still a few miles away from Gongyi City, and when they chase the fleeing Han soldiers, they feel that they have arrived in a few breaths, but when they go back, they feel that the circuit is so long. After a while, I walked to the small hill where the Korean army was ambushed in the morning, and a smell of blood came to my nose in the distance, looking at the corpses all over the ground, Zhou Bian seemed to have returned to a few hours ago, and the Korean soldiers in light armor and no shield rushed over without fear of death, and the royal soldiers were still trembling. I don't know whether to say that the Han soldiers are arrogant or brave in battle, knowing that they have no heavy armor backing, they still rushed up without hesitation in the face of the royal family's arrows, are they really not afraid of death? If your own army and the Korean soldiers change places, then what should you do, whether to rush or retreat? Zhou Bian was confused for a while.

At this moment, a miserable bird cry woke Zhou Bian from his contemplation, and it turned out that he was close to the battlefield full of corpses, and the pace of the army alarmed several unknown birds, and the birds that were crawling on the corpses were so startled that they circled all over the field, but they refused to leave as if they were reluctant to let go of the corpses on the ground.

It's really a cruel battlefield, Zhou Bian turned his head and said to Fan Yu, "Tell Wang Yufei who led the team in Gongyi, the corpses of the Han soldiers here must also be properly disposed of, although Han Zhao doesn't want them anymore, our royal family can't snub the warriors." ”

"Yes!" After giving his hand, Fan Yu jumped out of the chariot, set up another chariot and turned back.

I didn't want Fan Yu to leave, and suddenly I heard an exclamation from the army, "Ah, kill, kill, kill, stab, stab, stab!" "In the silent army is particularly harsh.

Hearing his voice, he was nervous and high-pitched, so panicked that Zhou Mi and others hurriedly protected the king, and the big shields were erected on all sides with the king's chariot as the center, and Pang Xing immediately drove to the source of the sound to find out.

As soon as the voice in front of him fell, several more shouts of killing sounded. Zhou Bian couldn't help but wonder, Han Zhao wouldn't have set himself up and crossed Luoshui from elsewhere to block himself, right? But when I looked around, I didn't hear any other marching steps, I didn't see any dust, and the surrounding of the army was extremely quiet before the sound just now, as if an enemy was coming. So what's going on?

The nervous wait didn't last long, and then he saw Pang Xing go and return, "Disturb the king, it's nothing." It's just that when passing by here, a half-dead Korean soldier on the ground suddenly sat up, which frightened a soldier of our army so much that he couldn't help screaming in a panic, causing dozens of people to raise their spears and stab indiscriminately. Fortunately, the commander Zhou Zhan happened to be next to him, and quickly led the team to collect the weapons of those rebellious soldiers, which calmed down everyone's emotions. ”

So that's the case, Zhou Bian's face relaxed, "Most of these soldiers are coming to the big battle for the first time, and it is inevitable that they are still nervous and easily stimulated, so they will be fine after a while." You go and tell the whole army, and say that this king has arranged meat outside the city of Gongyi, and wait for us to go back and enjoy it. ”

This is after the big victory, he sent people back to inform Gongyi to guard Liu Zixi to prepare, and it is not known whether it is really ready, but at this time Zhou Bian can only say this.

"No, King!"

After receiving the order, Pang Xing was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Zhou Bian again.

"By the way, what happened to that half-dead Han soldier?"

"I've been stabbed to minced flesh by more than a dozen spears." As he spoke, Pang Xing swallowed his saliva, as if he was resisting the urge to regurgitate.

"Oh, it's okay, after a few more big battles, you'll get used to it, and everyone will get used to it." Zhou Bian's words seemed to be comforting Pang Xing, but in fact, he was also comforting himself, he had never seen so many corpses, and he had been holding back from the morning to the present.

However, the stimulation of meat was not as big as imagined, after Pang Xing shouted around the whole army, the marching speed still did not speed up, but fortunately, the destination was not far away, and he could clearly see the outside of Gongyi City, in front of the military camp, hundreds of people were waiting respectfully under the leadership of a soldier, and behind them were dozens of cauldrons.

"Long live the king, I finally see the king! It wasn't until I saw the king that the heart of the subordinates finally landed. Thank you! Before the brigade approached, Liu Zixi ran to meet him, and the day before yesterday, the king suddenly led his troops to arrive, but he scared the courtier a lot.

From this morning until now, the nervousness and fear in the heart of the young scholar Liu Zixi, but there is no need for a small number of soldiers on the front line, fortunately, not long ago I finally received a messenger to report, Wang Shi won a big victory, after hearing the news Liu Zixi patted his chest, the second set of plans set by the king finally did not have to be carried out, but then Liu Zixi found that his heart could not be completely calmed down, until he saw the king with his own eyes.

Seeing this Liu Zixi seeing himself, he was not the first to congratulate, but first expressed his deep concern for the king, so his true feelings were revealed, Fang is the most loyal courtier, Zhou Bian smiled, there are courtiers like this, why are you afraid of South Korea, and why worry about the royal family not revival?

"Liu Zixi, please get up, isn't this king good. Our army has won a great victory, and today our army has won a great victory! After calming Liu Zixi, who was still nervous, Zhou Bian couldn't help but remind him a little smugly. You must know that when the troops were sent out in the morning, Liu Zixi repeatedly advised, if it weren't for Zhou Bian's fear that there would be no way back, so he led his people to stick to Gongyi, Liu Zixi was afraid that he would still follow.

Liu Zixi suddenly realized, "Oh, our army has won a big victory? Our army won a great victory. Congratulations to my king, congratulations to my king! The king, after learning that the king had sent an envoy to inform him, his ministers had prepared food for the army to enjoy, and asked the king to show it. Liu Zixi is still really pragmatic, if he changes to someone who is good at patting sycophants, I am afraid that this will already be red, and Liu Zixi is just a hasty sentence, what he wants is a person who does things like this, Zhou Bian nodded with a little approval, and someone immediately arranged it.

It was already noon, and from early in the morning to now, not to mention the fatigue, all the stomachs were empty and painful, so under the joint arrangement of Pang Xing and Liu Zixi's army and government, the army sat down in the barracks that had been set up the day before yesterday outside Gongyi City, and the people were interspersed with it, and they were suddenly busy.

The army returned victorious, the news has already spread in the city of Gongyi, provoked the same nervous morning Gongyi civilians have gathered on the city wall or the city gate to watch, although the army is afraid to approach the bloody figure, but the tall image of the mighty king has been deeply imprinted in everyone's heart. A few days ago, it was rumored that the panic of the Korean army was coming, and even the fear of difficulties on the road to the difficult revival of the royal family, at this moment, in the face of this Wang Shi, who was quietly eating the food in his hand but still couldn't control the murderous aura, he disappeared without a trace. And the faintly visible figure of the young man surrounded by layers of armor soldiers in the distance also gave the people of Gongyi the backbone of their hearts from now on.

While arranging for the army to rest and eat, there were also doctors interspersed to treat the wounded, although there was a good medicine left by Doctor Qin, and there were also later treatment methods passed on by Zhou Bian to the military physicians, but in this era when there were no anesthetics and there were almost no good disinfection measures, the howls were still endless. Fortunately, after a big battle, everyone has matured a lot, and there is no sadness spreading in the army.

As soon as he finished eating, Zhou Bian was rewarded by the two principals, and Liu Zixi said with a heavy face, "King, I just sent the good food down, not counting my Gongyi soldiers and the king's personal guards, the Wang Shi who followed my king from Luoyang only received two thousand eight hundred and eight meals. ”

Zhou Bian's heart sank when he heard this, and the luxury in his hand was also put down. Turning his head to look at Pang Xing, he saw that his face was still gloomy, "Wang, what Dr. Liu said just now is that the people who are intact and slightly injured, and there are also three hundred and twenty-seven seriously injured soldiers, because their injuries are not healed or unconscious, so they have not received food. When our army set out from Luoyang, not counting the prince's personal guards, it was 4,120 people, and according to this calculation, our army died 985 people in this battle. ”

Although Zhou Bian's heart was also extremely heavy, he still needed to cheer up and comfort everyone at this time, "Don't be sad, you Aiqing, war is like this, how can you not die in order to defend our homeland?" And he Han army has more people than we have died, although Wang Yufei has not yet been rewarded, but this king is expected to be no less than 5,000 people. It is not easy for us to win with a weak attack, let alone such a big victory? Every soldier we have died is worth it, they are the heroes of my royal family, although they are gone, the royal family will not forget them, according to the promise of this king, their descendants or family members will be bereaved and even raised by the royal family. General Pang, within today, this king wants you to count the specific number of killed, and according to his performance during his lifetime, those who should be credited will be credited, and this king will see the list at night, remember, it is a list, and there must be the name of every soldier who died for my royal family. ”

"No! King! Pang Xing solemnly gave a military salute.

"It is indeed a rare victory, and from then on, the princes and countries dare not underestimate my royal family!" Fan Yu on the side also interjected in real time, wanting to save everyone's sadness due to the loss of their comrades.

Seeing that the general and Gongyi Yishou were gathered around the king, such as Wang Sunjian, Liu Yun, Zhou Zhan and other officers also surrounded each other, several people looked at each other, and they all patted each other's shoulders vigorously. Although no one made a sound, the friendship between brothers and comrades-in-arms was unspoken.

When they came to the king's side, everyone was happy, "Congratulations to the king, our army has won this great victory, and the king is really blessed!" Only this battle, my royal division will be famous all over the world. ”

"Oh, is it really only this king who is blessed with Qitian to have this victory?" Seeing that the generals were all around, and the atmosphere was also lively, Zhou Bian smiled and asked rhetorically.

A few people around were stunned, but unexpectedly, a voice sounded from behind everyone, "According to a certain point of view, it is not the king Hongfu, in fact, it all depends on the king's proper training on weekdays, and his proper command today, and the ambush plan, so that the weak can defeat the strong, and win a big victory with a casualty ratio of one to five!" My grandfather has long asserted that the king of the Zhou family will revive the royal family in the future, overlooking the world, and today Tu is fortunate to be able to witness the first big victory of my royal division, which is really a blessing for three lives! ”

Hearing the prestige, it turned out to be Tu Meng, Tu Xiao's grandson, with white gauze wrapped around one thigh, and walked over with the support of a sergeant.
