Not long after Yan Zongbi left, Shen Tuo also arrived here surrounded by a large group of cavalry.

The battlefield had long since returned to calm, the sound of drums and horns had completely stopped, and the sound of the fighting that resounded through the clouds, the muffled sound of men and horses colliding, and the loud noise of weapons added together also stopped.

The evening was blowing slowly, and the twilight was falling.

Shen Tuo listened attentively, only the faint moaning sound, and the laughter of the Song army's soldiers.

But somehow, he was stunned.

This battle was won by itself, and the Song army, and even the hundreds of thousands of people who had fled far away began to cheer. There are even many people who take out firecrackers that they don't know how to come and set them off.

It's just that how many main forces the enemy has been defeated, and how great the victory is, Shen Tuo has no bottom in his heart, and even no confidence at all. He is well versed in history, and naturally he will be limited by history.

This battle naturally changed history because of him, but he also does not know the subsequent development. That feeling of confusion and panic deeply troubled him.

For a moment, he couldn't even figure out where he was. Everything in front of you is like a dream.

It was only when he breathed in the clear evening air and felt the laughter of hundreds of thousands of people that he re-immersed himself in reality from his fugue state.

What happens after this battle?

Such a heavy question was in his mind, and he couldn't get rid of it.

Soon after Wu Lan returned to Shen Tuo's side, he was sent by him to count the results of the battle with the rest of the generals and calculate the casualties on his side. At this time, he rushed over, but saw that the emperor's face was solemn, thoughtful, he didn't dare to step forward, so he only stood not far behind Shen Tuo, intervening and standing.

Not long after, Zhang Jun and others also came, and when they saw Shen Tuo's demeanor, they didn't dare to disturb, just stood aside.

Shen Tuo pondered for a long time, and when he found that everyone was already behind him, he was also a wolf.

It's just that he is the best at hiding himself, and he doesn't want to make everyone's hearts cold in addition to this big victory. Immediately, his face changed, and he smiled at everyone: "I have never seen such a scene, and I was stunned for a while. ”

At this time, although the sky was gradually darkening, what I saw in front of me was that within a radius of more than ten miles, the flag was broken and the horses were dead, blood and water flowed, and countless Song soldiers were killed on the spot, and on the side of their corpses, it was often the corpses of the enemy.

The two sides were entangled and entangled, and there were many people lying on their stomachs, their teeth biting each other's throats, and their hands pinching the enemy's necks. Here someone pierced the opponent's belly with an iron spear, and was slashed diagonally in the back.

Shen Tuo originally wanted to hide his emotions, but when he saw this, he couldn't help but be stunned again.

After the invention of the large-scale use of hot weapons by human beings, it seems that they all look down on the bows and arrows and knives and guns in the cold weapon war, and every time Shen Tuo reads it in the history books, it is only cold words, and he has no intuitive feelings.

It was only when such a cruel war scene was placed in front of his eyes that he knew how cruel and ferocious it was in the history books.

Today's battle, in fact, can be summed up in just one sentence: in the autumn of the fourth year of Jingkang, Wang Shida broke the gold and captured Fuping.

Zhang Jun and the others couldn't hold back their excitement, gritted their teeth one by one, so they couldn't laugh beside Shen Tuo, and when the emperor woke up, they also watched the battlefield situation carefully, and gradually pressed their joy.

Shen Tuo asked Wu Lan again: "How is the battlefield counted, we won this battle, how did we fight, I was confused." ”

Laugh when you say that. The rest of them were originally heartbroken by the loss of the Song army in this battle, and when he said this, they laughed together.

Wu Lan smiled at first, and then replied solemnly: "Your Majesty, the right minister will send someone to count the corpses of the enemy and us." Coupled with the number of wounded soldiers calculated in the battalion, more than 11,000 Song soldiers were killed and more than 20,000 wounded. ”

His face changed very sadly, and he said: "Most of the casualties are Jingyuan soldiers. ”

Qu Duan's face was distorted when he heard this, obviously heartache.

This person would rather not save his allies, but he never wanted to lose the strength of the Jingyuan soldiers, after this battle, the Jingyuan soldiers could not recover in the short term.

Zhang Jun looked at him, but he was displeased. only said lightly: "Whether it is the Jingyuan Army or the Huanqing Army, they are all the people under His Majesty's rule, and the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army is strong, no matter which one is seriously injured, it is the same." ”

He thought Qu Duan would refute, but he heard the other party answer: "Not bad." Your Majesty is here, all the departments are using their lives, what if the Jingyuan soldiers are dead? ”

Zhang Jun was slightly stunned, but he didn't know how the other party changed sex. Qu Duan squinted at him and sneered slightly. In fact, this person is loyal and virtuous, but he has always been stubborn and self-serving, and he does not trust other generals. In his heart, as long as Shaanxi has its own existence, it can keep the whole territory, and it doesn't matter whether the soldiers and horses are dead or alive.

Only this time, the emperor was so brave and gathered the strength of the army of all roads to defeat the main force of the Jin army, although he was conceited, he also knew that he could not do it on his own.

In this way, it is a stupid person's behavior to cling to the soldiers and horses all the way.

Shen Tuo ignored them, and only asked Wu Lan again: "How about the enemy's casualties, how about our capture?" ”

Wu Lan frowned and replied: "There are more than 15,000 corpses of the enemy, and the minister took a cursory look, more than half of them are Khitan of the Han army, and there are fewer Jurchens, and most of them are damaged when they rushed to the camp." The rest of the captured weapons are innumerable, thousands of war horses, countless tent utensils, and very little food. ”

Shen Tuo nodded slightly, but asked again, "Are there no captives?" ”

Wu Ling was surprised: "When we are searching, we will make up for everything that is angry, and catch them alive." ”

The rest of the generals also said: "Although this battle was a big victory, it didn't hurt their muscles and bones, the generals almost ran away, and those small soldiers were a waste of rations to keep, so it was naturally better to kill them with one sword." ”

Shen Tuo sighed in his heart, feeling that it was too cruel, but he also understood that in the current situation where the Song people hated the Jin people, it was already extremely merciful to give a knife.

I had to order: "This is naturally the case with the enemy soldiers, but most of the people in their camp who have not run away are mostly plundered, and they are all my people of the Great Song Dynasty, and they must not be harmed." ”

The generals agreed in unison and agreed together.

Shen Tuo didn't care about the hard work, so he first appeased and praised the generals, and then rode a horse to patrol the camp and comfort the soldiers of the whole army. When he returned to his tent, he gave orders again and again to kill pigs and sheep and reward the soldiers of the three armies.

For a time, the aroma of wine and meat filled the camp that stretched for more than ten miles, singing and laughing, resounding through the clouds.

Since Jingkang, the Song people have suffered repeated defeats in a few years, the two emperors were arrested, the capital was lost again and again, and the emperor who stood later did not even dare to enter the city gate of Tokyo, hiding in Yangzhou, half a year ago was also driven to Hangzhou like a rabbit, such a shame, but there is a soldier in the world who is willing to bear?

After this battle, although the former shame could not be washed away, it also greatly boosted the morale of the people in the world, and the Jurchen invincible ravages were broken, and the history of the Song army's invincibility against the Jin soldiers has become a thing of the past.

Such an exciting thing, even if you die tomorrow, what about it?

As an emperor, Shen Tuo was inconvenient to drink with the soldiers, so at the beginning of the banquet, he persuaded everyone to have a cup. He returned to the tent by himself, but it was difficult to sleep.

The ears were full of laughter and laughter, and it was noisy until the third watch in the middle of the night, Shen Tuo came out to watch at night, and he saw groups of Song soldiers shouting and inviting drinks, with a smile on his face.

Thinking of the daytime battle, when the flesh and blood were flying fiercely, these good men of the Song soldiers stood against the enemy's heavy armored cavalry, against the opponent's iron wall-like iron floating map, gritted their teeth, and fought desperately, but at this time, they forgot the pain of the wound on their body, and were full of joy, thinking that the emperor cheered up, the Song soldiers were strong, and victory in the future was just around the corner.

Shen Tuo's eyes drooped slightly, and he only felt sour and abnormal.

After tonight, there will be a few of these big Song men who are drinking and cheering.

He stepped out of the tent and looked at the starry sky, just thinking in his heart that this battle was won. The next step is to clean up the mess again, but how to start this first step?
