When approaching the Qiang team, Dong Zhuo replaced the bow and arrow in his hand with a big sword, and the enemies were cut off one after another when the knife passed; Seeing this scene, the soldiers of Xiliang shouted excitedly, the commander was brave, and the soldiers were greatly encouraged, so they naturally used their lives.

Subsequently, Dong Zhuo and Xiliang's soldiers let Jia Rong see what it means to be a battlefield warrior and a veteran of a hundred battles, which is completely a one-sided massacre; Dong Zhuo led the Xiliang soldiers to kill the Qiang people without the power to fight back.

The Qiang people temporarily retreated, and a group of recruits who had just experienced the battlefield just lay on the city wall, enjoying the feeling of being reborn.

When the heralds announced the victory of the war and the Qiang people retreated, Jia Rong ignored the knife wound on his body, carried Li Xi's bloody corpse on his back, and Li Hu followed behind, followed by a wild field, and buried Li Xi on the spot.

Jia Rong said in a choked tone to a grave bag that had just risen on the ground: "Brother Li Xi, we will all remember you, you are a heroic soldier, and the soldiers of Lijia Village will always be proud of you." ”

As he spoke, Jia Rong cried again and continued: "Actually, you also blame me, if it weren't for me telling you that I had made meritorious contributions to killing the enemy on the battlefield, you wouldn't have followed me to the battlefield, and you wouldn't have lost your life." ”

Li Hu, who was crying bitterly, walked to Jia Rong's side, and kept telling the sadness in his heart and his reluctance to Li Xi, although the person he really admired was Jia Rong, but when Li Xi really spared his life in order to save himself, Li Hu's heart was extremely moved.

It wasn't until it was dark that Jia Rong stood up and said to Li Xi's grave: "Brother, you rest here first, and I will definitely bring you back to Lijia Village in the future." ”

After speaking, he bowed to Li Xi's grave, and staggered back to the barracks with Li Hu.

As soon as he returned to the barracks, a soldier stepped forward and said to Jia Rong respectfully, "General Guo asked you to go see him as soon as you come back." ”

Seeing Jia Rong's martial arts on the battlefield today, as well as his affection and righteousness, he deeply admired the soldiers who came from Hechi County, this is

Worship from the bottom of the heart, without any other factors; In the hearts of soldiers, only those who are brave, affectionate and righteous can win their respect and love.

Jia Rong didn't notice this, nodded to the soldier who was passing the word and said, "Well, I know, you go down." ”

The soldier gave Jia Rong a military salute and withdrew.

came to Guo Yan's camp, and after the report of the herald, Jia Rong met Guo Yan.

Jia Rong hurriedly saluted Guo Yan and said, "Humble Jia Rong, meet General Guo." ”

Guo Yan walked to Jia Rong's side, stretched out his hand to help him up, and said, "You don't have to be so polite. ”

Jia Rong had a feeling of flattery, although he had usually consulted Guo Yan about martial arts, but Guo Yan had always been very indifferent to people, and he had never seen him so enthusiastic about anyone.

As if seeing Jia Rong's doubts, Guo Yan walked to his seat, and then motioned for Jia Rong to sit down and speak; He said unhurriedly: "Today, your performance is very good, I inspected the entire garrison army, and after a rough calculation, only the soldiers in Hechi County, where you are located, have suffered the least losses and captured the most enemies. ”

"The dead are gone, how can there be immortals on the battlefield, only in the experience of standing and fire, can soldiers truly grow; You are also an understanding person, and I believe you can understand what I say. Looking at Jia Rong's red eyes, Guo Yan said comfortingly.

Jia Rong knew that Guo Yan was caring about himself, but he was just expressing it in a different way, he looked at Guo Yan and said: "General, please rest assured, Jia Rong understands this, only living better is the best reward for his dead comrades." ”

Guo Yan nodded and said: "Maybe you are right, only living better is the best way to repay the deceased." ”

After speaking, a trace of sadness flashed in Guo Yan's eyes.

Jia Rong usually watches people very carefully, and naturally captures the changes in Guo Yan's eyes; Everyone has their own unusual experience, especially a veteran like Guo Yan.

Jia Rong looked at Guo Yan quietly, waiting for the following, Guo Yan ordered him to come, it would not be so simple.

"After you go back, count the specific losses of the soldiers in Hechi County, including those soldiers who are too seriously injured on the battlefield and lose the ability to continue fighting, and report the results to me after the statistics." Guo Yan continued.

Jia Rong heard Guo Yan's words and asked, "General, take the liberty of asking, I wonder what will happen to those soldiers who are too injured?" ”

Listening to Jia Rong's questioning, Guo Yan nodded with satisfaction, only a general who knows how to care about the soldiers can be loved by the soldiers, and can he cooperate with the soldiers on the battlefield and play the greatest role; He said to Jia Rong: "You can rest assured about this, we will give them a pension and give them land; As for the dead soldiers, we will also compensate their families. ”

Although this condition is very unfair to Jia Rong from the future, in the era of war, this may be the most fruitful result.

Guo Yan then said to Jia Rong: "If there is nothing wrong, you can go and comfort the soldiers who have just gone through the war today." ”

Jia Rong saluted Guo Yan and said, "Yes, general, retire from your humble position." ”

When Jia Rong turned to leave, Guo Yan saw the knife wound on Jia Rong's back, and the red blood stained the robe red; Guo Yan hurriedly stopped Jia Rong, and then ordered the doctor to come for treatment.

After a rough bandage, the doctor said that it was no big deal, and it would be fine after resting today, Guo Yan breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand to let Jia Rong go down, and the soldier told him to rest well and not to participate in training in the next few days.

Feeling Guo Yan's care for him, no matter what emotion he is in, Jia Rong is still very grateful to Guo Yan.

Returning to the camp where the soldiers in Hechi County were located, Jia Rong endured the injuries on his body and offered condolences from camp to camp; When the soldiers saw Jia Rong coming in person, they struggled to get up from the bed and saluted Jia Rong.

After today's battle, they admired Jia Rong's performance on the battlefield, the army has always respected the strong; What's more, Jia Rong was their instructor before, and his admiration for Jia Rong was like a surging river, flowing endlessly.

Jia Rong hurriedly stopped them and said, "You don't have to be like this, I'm just here to see you." ”

When some soldiers heard Jia Rong say this, they immediately shed tears, they were still teenagers no matter what, and they had just experienced the death or injury of their companions, and their hearts were all afraid and sad.

Jia Rong also understood them very well, and said to them: "I know everyone's mood at the moment, and my heart is also very uncomfortable; But if you think about it, their injuries and deaths are valuable, they sacrificed to protect our homeland, and their deaths are meaningful; People are inherently dead, or lighter than a feather, or heavier than Mount Tai, and their injuries and deaths are heavier than Mount Tai. ”

Looking at the soldiers' faces softened slightly, Jia Rong continued: "The responsibility we shoulder tells us that we should not slack off, and we must train harder in the future, and I still have the same sentence: "Sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime." Do you understand this time? ”

"Got it!" The soldiers replied neatly, their voices low but resolute.

"Well, that's good." Jia Rong said with satisfaction that only after experiencing the battle of life and death can he understand the importance of strength.

Jia Rong continued: "You are soldiers, no matter when, don't forget your identity and do what you should do, the soldier's duty is to defend the country; It is only through the experience of war that you can grow strongly; Have you seen the scene when General Dong led the soldiers to rush and kill the Qiang people today, you will one day be as heroic as them, I look forward to your growth. ”

When the soldiers heard Jia Rong's words, their eyes flashed with expectation, and they naturally wanted to become elite soldiers and strong generals, and they also wanted to make contributions; Secretly clenched his fists, and kept telling himself to work towards the goal in their hearts.

After counting the specific casualties of the soldiers in Hechi County, Jia Rong was stunned, the original team of 2,277 people died after today's battle to defend the city; The number of soldiers who were seriously wounded and lost the ability to continue fighting was one hundred and forty-nine; That is to say, after the First World War, the soldiers of Hechi County alone lost 410 people, which is still a rough estimate of the relatively small losses of the team, so how many soldiers in other counties will lose.

After instructing the soldiers in charge of the herald to report the soldiers' losses to Guo Yan, Jia Rong lay down on the bed and couldn't sleep for a long time; Thinking of today's battlefield, thinking of his comrades-in-arms who were still training and playing with him yesterday, but today they are leaving him forever, Jia Rong had mixed feelings for a while.

The battlefield is always cruel; One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, this sentence is good, in later generations I did not have a deep awareness of this sentence, when I was in the army, it was more difficult to train, how could I have seen such a real battlefield; After today's war, Jia Rong has a deep understanding of this sentence.

I will work harder in the future, Jia Rong secretly warned himself in his heart; is not only to wait for his show, but also to let himself live more in troubled times; No one is not afraid of death, especially after experiencing the brutality of the battlefield.

Recalling the words of the scribe beside Dong Zhuo, Jia Rong now thought it was true; Only war can make a soldier grow up quickly, and blind training cannot cultivate elite soldiers; The battlefield is the school field where soldiers are really trained!

This night, Jia Rong dreamed that Li Xi cried to himself and complained that he didn't want to die; also dreamed that he became a general, leading the soldiers of Hechi County to gallop on the battlefield, and the enemy fled everywhere; became a big official, rode a high-headed horse back to Lijia Village, and married Xiu'er...
