Chapter 174: War Syndrome
At that moment, Wang Shen said to Du Shu: "About it, the people of Qichun are dead, and there is a big epidemic in the city, so I am naturally confident in taking this city." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info However, you have to prepare in advance. ā
Du Shu: "Please also ask the defense envoy to show me." ā
Wang Shen: "The bones of a large number of people need to be collected, and the people of the whole city died because of me, how can you call them violent corpses in the wilderness, you let the people in Xingyuan prepare coffins for backup." ā
Du Shu: "I'm afraid that I can't find so much wood, and there are too many deaths, how can I collect it, it's time-consuming and labor-intensive!" ā
Wang Shen nodded: "Then let's bury it together, but the buried bones should be wrapped in reeds as much as possible." In addition, craftsmen had to be asked to burn a large amount of lime for disinfection. ā
"Lime is easy to do, most of the mountains here are limestone, and it can easily burn tens of thousands of catties."
Wang Shen: "In addition, I asked Lang Zhong to prescribe a decoction to relieve the heat and prevent the epidemic, and sent people to take charge of the pharmacies in Qi and Huangzhou counties, and collect the required medicinal materials." still make IOUs, wait until the war subsides, and compensate others according to the market price of copper coins. ā
Du Shu: "Yes, General." ā
At this time, Chen Da, who was standing beside Wang Shen, suddenly said, "Congratulations to the general." ā
Wang Shen was very surprised: "Where does the joy come from?" ā
Chen Da is responsible for luring the people out of the city to survive, and he is also the head of the intelligence agency, so he is naturally clear about the enemy's situation, and said: "Military envoy, according to the investigation of his subordinates, there are only five or six thousand people left in the city, and Kong Yanzhou has more than 2,000 soldiers on hand, and there is a shortage of food and grass, and there is a big epidemic in the city. ā
Wang Shen was bitter in his heart, and shouted: "Shut up, so many people have died, and you still come to congratulate me, do you want to fall into an unrighteous place?" ā
Seeing that he was about to have a seizure, Du Shu hurriedly waved his hand at Chen Da and said with a wry smile: "Judge Chen Jun, seeing so many people dead, Wang Jun made his heart uncomfortable, you better stop talking about it, why don't you retreat quickly?" ā
Chen Da didn't leave: "Lord, the little one still has an important matter to tell, and I ask the general to show it." ā
Wang Shen was annoyed: "You haven't done anything serious. ā
Chen Da: "My lord, the military spirit is a little unstable. ā
Wang Shen was taken aback: "The army is unstable, what's going on?" ā
Chen Da: "In the days when the lord returned to Huangzhou to crusade against the thief army, the large and small battalions in the army roared a few times. ā
"Yingxiao?" Wang Shen was taken aback: "Why don't I know about this, what is going on, you are telling the truth." ā
"The scale of the battalion is not large, and every time an incident occurs, it is quickly suppressed by the officers of each battalion. It is estimated that the generals are also afraid of the general's punishment, so they conceal it and do not report it. Chen Da said cautiously: "I didn't make much trouble, and the general didn't have to be annoyed." It's just that the subordinates feel that this matter is also a bad sign and can't be careless. ā
Originally, Wang Shen set up camp and set up a village according to the system of the Western Army, each battalion was scattered to build a village, set up a large number of deer, horse, and trenches, and each battalion was connected by galloping roads, and the law was strict.
Even if something happens in one battalion or one village, chaos cannot easily spread to the entire army.
Therefore, the battalion was quickly suppressed by the general with the troops.
Now the scale of the Sizhou army is very large, and Wang Shen has the posture of opening his teeth and building a government. The generals of the various armies have gradually gained more power, and they are all difficult to mess with. Although Chen Da is a yin owl, he doesn't dare to touch their moldy heads easily.
Wang Shen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard him say this: "Chen Da, you tell me in detail." "He is also strange in his heart, and his army knows best. The sergeants and soldiers in Sizhou are all from good families, and they have undergone strict training on weekdays, and they only have discipline in their eyes, how can they bomb the camp.
Chen Da: "Actually, the people in the camp are all still alive and captive, not the main force of our Sizhou army. ā
It turned out that when the thousands of Kong Yanzhou's captives who were captured earlier attacked Qichun by the Sizhou army, because Wang Shen's troops were insufficient, they all formed these soldiers in separate formations, sent officers, issued weapons, and ordered them to join the siege of the city.
After a month of bloody fighting, the casualties reached an astonishing eighty percent, and only about 1,000 people remained.
Every day I saw flying flesh and blood and my comrades wailing and dying, the spirit of these captives collapsed, and many strange things happened in the prisoner camp.
Someone slept until midnight and suddenly let out a loud wail in a dream, and then cried loudly.
Someone was talking to someone, and as he spoke, his eyes straightened. Then he grabbed a rock and threw it at the person's head.
There were two people who used to be like brothers, and suddenly they were in a mess.
There are also people who cry all day long, saying that they are in terrible pain, and they ask Lang Zhong to take a look, but they can't see the truth.
Every time something like this happens, it's a small commotion, especially in the middle of the night, which can easily cause a roar.
During this time, the officers who ran the prisoner camp were all made nervous, and they also suppressed a few troublemakers, but not only did not return the ranks to normal, but such things became more and more violent.
Chen Da: "Lord, it was most appropriate to kill these captives with one sword. However, the army made you benevolent and benevolent, and used these captives into a separate army to attack the city, and at least they also contributed to you, but it is impossible to kill them again. The captive army made such a fuss, and it was not a way to blindly suppress it, and the subordinates had no ideas, so they came to tell them. ā
"War syndrome." In an instant, this term appeared in Wang Shen's mind. Generally speaking, this happens to post-war veterans, and it is a very troublesome thing. If you don't handle it well, there will be big problems.
It's okay now, but there's something wrong with the captives. However, if this war drags on like this, there will be something wrong with the Sizhou army.
Fortunately, the troops began to take turns on vacation, which finally allowed the soldiers who were in a tense state to get a moment of relaxation.
Wang Shen thought about it and felt that this matter could not be careless, so he said: "Chen Da, I will handle this matter personally." When you go down, take all the captives who don't look right and keep them in custody. ā
"Yes, my subordinates are going to tie them all up."
Wang Shen said angrily: "Whoever told you to tie them up, they are all sick, and they are sick here." As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed to his head: "Forget it, I don't need you anymore, Du Shu, you can do this." Gather all the patients together and find a clean and comfortable place to place them all. In addition, not only the prisoners, but also the soldiers in our Sizhou army who found that something was wrong also had to be concentrated to recuperate. Let the Langzhong people be happy and calm their nerves, let them take it. ā
Du Shu is a bad person, but because of his character, the sergeants and local officials are very affectionate when they see him.
If he comes forward, he can also appease the morale.
Du Shu: "The soldiers of the Sizhou army should also be concentrated to recuperate/"
"Yes, they may seem to be okay now, but no one can guarantee what will happen in the future, and there will be no more accidents."
