Chapter 785: Burying the Body
Seeing that Zhang Baoer was still hesitating, Wang Haibin knelt down on one knee and pleaded: "Dingguo Gong, please, let us stay!" ”
Zhang Bao'er shook her head slowly and said, "Why are you so troubled?" ”
Wang Haibin said with a sad and indignant face: "If the real sword and real gun are lost, it will be fine, but the 60,000 army has been defeated in such a daze, I am not convinced!" I can't gallop the battlefield and fight to the death with the Khitans, even if I shout and cheer for the Duke of Dingguo on the sidelines, I will feel better. ”
Zhang Baoer stepped forward to help Wang Haibin up: "Just rush at Wang Duwei's enthusiasm, I promise you." ”
"Thank you Dingguogong!" Wang Haibin said gratefully.
"That's it! Let's talk about the losses in this battle first! Zhang Baoer asked.
Wang Haibin's face was gloomy and he said: "Less than 10,000 of the 60,000 people fled to Xiaoluanhe!" ”
Zhang Bao'er frowned and said, "Such a big loss? ”
Wang Haibin nodded and said, "More than half of the casualties were caused by the trampling of our own cavalry, and some were killed by the pursuit of the enemy's cavalry. Not only the sergeants, but also the generals also lost a lot, and even Cui Tingshi was killed. ”
Zhang Bao'er asked again: "The only wooden bridge on the Xiaoluan River has been destroyed, who is now directing the rest of the people to cross the river?" ”
Wang Haibin replied: "Now it is General Li Kailuo and General Li Sijing who are organizing the river crossing. ”
"Li Sijing!" Zhang Baoer gritted her teeth, and she could see that his hatred for Li Sijing had not disappeared.
"Look, master!" At this moment, Uncle Hua suddenly pointed ahead and shouted.
Everyone looked around, only to see that the Khitan and Xi coalition forces had begun to camp in the same place.
"He's consumed with me!" Zhang Bao'er sneered: "If they retreat from the difficulty, I really can't do anything about them." I didn't expect them to stay, isn't it looking for death? ”
After that, Zhang Bao'er instructed Uncle Hua: "Uncle Hua, send someone to inform the other party that two hours before dark, both sides will collect the corpses and bury them, and in such a hot weather, if you don't deal with it in time, it is easy to catch the plague." ”
"Yes!" Uncle Hua turned around and left.
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the battlefield had been cleared by both sides.
Zhang Bao'er stood in the car formation and looked into the enemy camp, only to see that the Khitans had set up thousands of felt tents five hundred meters away from the car array. Zhang Baoer just watched quietly, no one knew what he was thinking.
"Little master, General Li Kailuo and General Li Sijing ask to meet!" Uncle Hua whispered.
"Li Kailuo, Li Sijing?" Zhang Bao'er asked in surprise: "Could it be that those defeated soldiers haven't crossed the river yet?" ”
"The crossing of the river was completed, but the two of them took a few hundred men with them, cut the iron cables, and refused to leave."
Zhang Bao'er was also noncommittal, and instructed Uncle Hua: "Let them enter the phalanx and arrange a place for them, but they are not allowed to move around." ”
In the evening, Xue Ne and Wang Haibin found Zhang Baoer.
"You two don't have a good rest, and you're looking for me so late?" Zhang Baoer looked at the two suspiciously.
Xue Ne sighed and said, "I can't sleep, it just so happened that Wang Duwei came to me to talk about something, and I became more and more uncertain, so I took him to you." ”
"Wang Duwei, I don't know what you're looking for me?" Zhang Baoer looked at Wang Haibin again.
"I'm here to remind Dingguo Gong to be careful that they come to the camp at night." Wang Haibin said worriedly.
"Thank you Wang Duwei, they won't come!" Zhang Bao'er had a strange smile on her face.
"Dingguo Gong is so confident? How do you know they're not going to come to the camp? Wang Haibin asked.
"Because they have more important things to do, and they can't bother to come to the camp." The smile on Zhang Baoer's face became even stronger.
"Is there anything more important?" Wang Haibin was even more puzzled.
"Of course, they want to guard against us going to touch the camp, how can they have the time to touch our camp?"
"Huh?" Wang Haibin was stupid: "There are only such a few people here in Dingguogong, it is difficult to protect himself, how to touch the camp?" ”
"Their camp is so big, of course, that we can't touch it, but we can harass them, and make him like a frightened bird who can't sleep peacefully. In this way, it would be impossible for them to come to the camp. ”
Wang Haibin then understood why Zhang Baoer showed a strange smile just now, and he suddenly realized: "Dingguo Gong, you are the first to strike!" ”
Zhang Bao'er smiled: "That's what I mean." ”
That night, the Khitan and Xi coalition forces did not come to steal the camp, on the contrary, Zhang Baoer divided the Luzhou regimental training into three groups, and harassed them all night without stopping.
Wang Haibin smiled bitterly at Xue Ne and said: "Dingguo Gong can really toss, people shout horses neighing, gongs and drums shake the sky, and there are arrows." The Grand Governor, could it be that the Duke of Dingguo could be unpredictable and carry so many messy family goods? ”
Xue Ne was silent, as if thinking about something.
In the early morning, the auxiliaries in the circle had already started cooking. Wang Haibin turned around and came back and said in surprise to Xue Ne: "Governor, do you guess what they give the soldiers to eat?" ”
"Isn't it your own wheat rice?" Xue Ne asked.
The soldiers of the Tang Army brought their own dry food for three days when they went to the army, and after arriving at the barracks, the dry food was distributed by the army, but it was also carried by the soldiers themselves, and the wheat was generally fried and packed in dry food bags, so it was also called wheat rice.
Wang Haibin shook his head: "They are freshly steamed steamed cakes, hot." There is also rice soup, sauce meat, and the most incomprehensible thing is that there is an egg for one person. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Haibin was puzzled and said: "Dadudu, you said that they bumped so far, how did they bring the eggs?" ”
Xue Ne sighed and said: "Dingguo Gong is really willing to spend money on these Luzhou group exercises, let's go, let's take a look." ”
Zhang Bao'er was eating, and when she saw Xue Ne and Wang Haibin, she couldn't help laughing and said, "How is it, Old Xue, is our breakfast still delicious?" ”
Xue Ne said: "I haven't taken care of eating yet!" ”
"Let's eat together!" Zhang Baoer pointed to the side and said.
After Xue Ne and Wang Haibin sat down, a sergeant had already brought them breakfast.
Wang Haibin couldn't help but ask: "Dingguo Gong, this egg is the easiest to break, how did you transport it?" ”
Zhang Bao'er smiled: "Do you think I am a god and can transport fresh eggs here, this is salted eggs with salt, don't believe you taste it, it tastes very good?" ”
Wang Haibin tasted it, it was really a salted egg, and he hurriedly said: "It tastes really good!" ”
Speaking of this, Wang Haibin felt and said: "Dingguo Gong, if you want me to say, these soldiers are really blessed to follow you." Not only is the equipment the best, but also food, clothing, housing and transportation, Dingguo Gong has taken care of everything! ”
Zhang Bao'er shook her head and said: "Actually, I haven't done enough, they are all taking their lives to accompany me Zhang Bao'er to die for nine lives, how can I treat them badly?" If it weren't for the rush of time, I would have created better conditions. ”
