After the drizzle, a red sunset appeared on the horizon, and the red light spread all over the earth, shining warmly on people, but winter is still winter, even if it is sunny, it is difficult to hide the cold in the air.

Outside the Surabaya Pass, the stone-throwing attacks had stopped as the boulders had been exhausted, and the fierce siege warfare had resumed as before.

Ling Feng led the soldiers to the front of the formation, just when Qin Huai retreated, looking at the other party's pig's liver-colored face, Ling Feng didn't ask much, and with a wave of his hand, he motioned for Lu Wen and Lu Chang to come forward to treat the wounded.

Jiang Lin and Yuan Lie were still wondering what Ling Feng was doing with his troops, but when they saw the movements of Lu Wen and the others, they understood most of it.

Yuan Lie's department had the most wounded soldiers, and at this time, he waved at Ling Feng, and said with a smile: "Senator Ling really loves soldiers like a son, he can be described as a model for us, thank you very much." ”

Ling Feng pretended not to hear the other party's words, and pretended to be stupid: "Thank you, what? ”

"Hehe, of course thank you for helping me treat the soldiers, alas, the general has to attack the city and rescue the soldiers, it's really too busy, and now with the help of the senate general, it's really no better."

A hint of fierceness flashed in Ling Feng's eyes, but he returned to normal in an instant, and sneered: "General Yuan, I think you misunderstood, Ling didn't save these soldiers to help you. ”

Qin Huai didn't seem to hear the conversation between the two, and stood aside silently.

Yuan Lie: ". ”

Although Jiang Lin didn't have a good brain, he also heard a general idea at this time, he smiled and nodded at Ling Feng, then looked at Yuan Lie, and said, "Yuan Lie, I remember that you didn't have the habit of treating wounded soldiers before, as long as the big battle is over, the wounded soldiers with limited mobility are abandoned by you, am I right?" ”

Hearing this, Yuan Lie's expression was shocked, the corners of his eyes deflated Qin Huai on the side, and then he stared at Jiang Lin angrily, and said secretly: "****, can this kind of thing be taken out and talked nonsense." ”

Seeing that Qin Huai was speechless, he was completely relieved, but he still pinched a cold sweat for Jiang Lin's words just now.

In fact, Qin Huai had already stipulated that after the war, the wounded soldiers must be treated, and they cannot be abandoned, which is also responsible for the soldiers; But almost all the generals can't do it, and whenever a soldier is injured, especially a serious injury, none of them will waste energy on treatment.

The reason is very simple, the army has to fight the enemy at any time, if because of a few wounded soldiers, it consumes a lot of manpower, it is really unwise, and more seriously, the wounded soldiers will not form combat effectiveness in a short time, the march is also slow, and people need to take care of it, so it is too troublesome, no one will do such a thankless task.

Qin Huai also knew that there was such a phenomenon, but he didn't stop it, because it was useless to stop it, and the generals would also make such mistakes.

Therefore, what Jiang Lin said is also seeking truth from facts, and everyone knows it, but this kind of thing can only be operated in secret, how can it be said clearly, if it is insisted on being investigated, it is not a trivial matter, and if it is not good, it will not even be able to lose its official position.

Jiang Lin didn't seem to realize this, in order to befriend Ling Feng, he still looked at Yuan Lie and sneered: "If you don't save these wounded soldiers, they will die in a short time, General Ling took great pains to rescue them, but you came directly to pick up the benefits, you are so embarrassed." ”

Jiang Lin smiled and said secretly in his heart: "Anyway, there are no Lao Tzu's soldiers on the battlefield, so it doesn't matter who the wounded soldiers are." ”

Yuan Lie could be described as angry, but he didn't dare to vent, because Qin Huai was beside him, and if he made a fuss, it would not do him any good.

But Jiang Lin was not afraid, and after a pause, he continued: "Besides, Senator Ling is short of soldiers, I think these wounded soldiers are just right for Senator Ling, you won't be reluctant to even have a few wounded soldiers, right?" ”

In fact, when he said this, he felt that something was wrong, when did he expand the source of troops with wounded soldiers, this was a bit of a taste of calling Hanako, but there was no way to take it back if the words had already been spoken, he believed that Ling Feng could hear the kindness in it.

Ling Feng smiled and threw a grateful look at him, he didn't care whether the wounded soldiers were injured or not, this was what he valued, if he gave it to other so-called elite soldiers, he didn't want it; However, Jiang Lin could see clearly his intentions in treating the wounded soldiers, but it was worthy of appreciation, he always thought that the other party was a reckless man, but he didn't expect to see it so thoroughly in this matter.

"Where, where." Yuan Lie suddenly smiled awkwardly and said, "Senator Ling, I was joking with you just now, these wounded soldiers were saved by you, of course they belong to you, how could I intervene sideways, you can absolutely rest assured of this!" ”

Ling Feng's face was expressionless, and Mu Ran said, "Thank you very much." ”

Yuan Lie's face twitched slightly, and he said in his heart: "I knew that this was the result, so I wouldn't have said those words." ”

But it's not too late to sell Ling Feng face now; The only pity is that although the wounded soldiers have no combat effectiveness in a short period of time, once they recover, they will be the best soldiers who are alive and well, and in the long run, it is not a small number, maybe there will be thousands.

Looking at Jiang Lin on the side, he unconsciously remembered the other party's words, in fact, what they said was right, if these wounded soldiers were not saved, wouldn't they all die in the end, thinking about it like this, my heart felt much better.

"Okay, it's cheap!"

Yuan Lie said secretly in his heart.

At this time, Qin Huai, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly sighed and said lamentingly: "It is difficult to capture this Surabaya Pass." ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at him in unison. Qin Huai's eyes were always staring at the city wall in the distance.

There is a big battle ahead, and there are soldiers who keep climbing up the tower, but they keep falling down, and the whole situation is looking for death, but they have to look for death, which makes people really helpless.

Qin Huai suddenly said: "Ling Feng, I remember you once said that behind the high walls of Surabaya City, if you want to capture it, you can only outwit it, you have always been astute, but you have a countermeasure?" ”

Regarding this question, he had asked this question more than once, and Ling Feng's answer was almost the same as before, and he hugged his fists and said: "Taishi, I remember that you also said that Jiang Yiyuan is as cunning as a fox, and if you want to capture Surabaya Pass, you have to rely on your strength, and it is really unwise to fight with Jiang Yiyuan." ”

Speaking of this, he pointed to the city wall in the distance and said, "Taishi, please see, after the city wall of Surabaya Pass was smashed by trebuchets, it has been damaged in many places, and there are no wall piers in many places. ”

Hearing these comforting words, Qin Huai's face became even heavier, and after instructing Jiang Lin to continue mining the boulder and transport the trebuchet back to the camp, he drove the war horse backwards.

Ling Feng looked at it, and then turned his attention back to the battlefield.

For the fierce siege in the farthest distance, he couldn't arouse the slightest interest, as far as his eyes could see, there were all the wounded soldiers who were being lifted by the soldiers, watching the wounded soldiers being carried in the direction of the big camp, the corners of Ling Feng's mouth showed a slight smile.

It may take a few months for seriously injured soldiers to recover, but those lightly wounded soldiers are simple, at most a month, they can train normally, and then the strength under his command will increase a lot, when I think of this, let alone him, even any general will not be able to suppress the excitement in his heart.

Strength is everything!

The status of a general is often determined by the number of soldiers under his command and the elite degree of the troops, this is not the first time it has been said, but no matter when it is said, it is an eternal law in the barracks!
