Chapter 483: Heavy Rain
"I remember that when Wang Yuan's body was recovered, it was Tai who entered your barracks, and you seemed to use some kind of grass to get rid of this smell, right?"
"Huh? Oh, the general is talking about the incense, right? This thing is easy to find, relatively easy to buy, but the whole county around thirty miles is like this, if you want to get rid of such a smell, I think the herbs can't be used, and a lot of herbs are needed, and in the end this smell can only be covered. ”
Li Qingbitter frowned, his words were indeed reasonable.
Now there is such a smell around this county, everyone is frowning bitterly when they smell it, and it is impossible to use incense to get rid of it at once.
"It's okay to be covered, even if it's to burn other flowers and plants, in short, it is to cover this smell, otherwise who can stand it, this is more stinky than those streets!"
Everyone also nodded and said yes, no one can stand such a smell.
Li Qing finally nodded and said: "Okay, I'll figure out a way to do this, I hope I can cover this smell, of course, if you want to get rid of it completely, you still have to have a heavy rain, or even a torrential rain, the best thing is to wait until the remaining corpses are disposed of, it will be a heavy rainstorm, and after the rainstorm, there will be no more such a smell." ”
I'd like to see a heavy rainstorm, but it hasn't rained for more than half a month since the battle with the Qing army, right?
I want to wait until it rains, and I don't know when or when it will go!
The corpse was disposed of in this way, and when all the soldiers returned to the army to celebrate, I came to the Tianqian Canyon alone, looking at the big pit that had been bought by the sky, I couldn't imagine how many corpses there would be below, as if it was a sinkhole, how many people would have to fill it in?
"Perhaps, war is evil!"
Old man Tian followed me, he sighed helplessly, and his whole face looked very bad, as if he was very afraid of such a place.
"Yes, wars are evil, but have I become the evil one?"
I've asked myself this question a thousand times in my mind, but I've never been able to get an answer.
Whether it is the corpses of the Qing army or our brothers lying here, but the corpses of nearly 100,000 people buried here cannot be changed in any way, they are all living lives, no matter what, this place has always killed more than 100,000 people, this cannot be changed, nor can it be discredited.
"Yes, these more than 100,000 people were destroyed in an instant, what a terrible number!"
Old man Tian shook his head helplessly, the last thing he wanted was to see people die, thinking that he could fight with Qin Zhaogao for the hundreds of villagers who died innocently, this is the best embodiment of justice in him.
And the recent battles have killed and injured more than 100,000 people, and this sudden change has directly hit Old Man Tian seriously, and he can't stand it.
"I don't know if we're digging our own grave!"
The old man of Hetian stayed in the Tianqian Canyon until late at night, and then we turned around and went back.
Both of us were deeply touched by this, and in the early hours of the morning, there was a light rain, and finally a heavy rain pot.
This heavy rain is enough to wash the entire county from the inside out, and wash away all the smell of corpses and blood.
When the rain comes, let's make the world clean.
But I also understand that this is only afraid that the good times will not last long, although the Qing army is defeated and fled this time, and this Yunnan is also their nightmare, but I understand that the matter is far from over.
Even if they don't dare to send a large army in the future, they will not give up on ruling Yunnan.
And I, as long as Chen Yuanyuan is not killed by me, then this matter is not over.
The consumption of the county town after several major wars was also very large, and for the next period of time, we were all rebuilding the county, compensating for the losses, and so on.
Especially the city tower, the cannon of the Qimen is really powerful, although the city tower did not collapse after several bombings, but the losses caused to us are not small, the city tower was blown up into potholes.
The city tower was destroyed, and if it was not rebuilt, I was afraid that the next big war would not have as good resistance as before, and in the end it would have to be allocated to rebuild the city tower.
And General Mole, after this battle, his men and horses have lost a lot, 20,000 people came, and in the end there were only more than 15,000 soldiers left, which made General Mole sink and feel bad all the time.
I also understand that this is his hard work, more than 5,000 people died in the battle, this is a piece of meat dug from his heart.
When General Mole led his troops back, I didn't have any rewards to thank him, except for money.
In the end, he could only allocate a huge amount of money for him to go back to comfort the soldiers and compensate the families of the soldiers who died in the war.
Next is Wang Qi, this time in the big war, it can be said that he has invested most of his capital, and it is the most elite wrong.
His losses were similar to that of General Damo, he came with 50,000 people, although they participated in the war in the back, but they played a great role, especially to eliminate the living force of the Qing army, so in the end, the men and horses were counted, and there were more than 5,000 brothers killed under Wang Qi.
There are also wounded, seriously injured, etc., not counted, and more importantly, he lost two generals under his hands, which is very common for private individuals on the battlefield, but the winning side also lost generals, which is a rare situation.
Therefore, this incident is not a small blow to Wang Qi.
50,000 horses and horses also died so much, for Wang Qi, it was really a defeat, when he led the troops back, although Wang Qi repeatedly gave up, but I could see that his mood was not very good, after all, the car still carried more than 5,000 ashes, and he had to deal with the aftermath after he went back, this is the beginning of things.
I'm quite sorry for Wang Qi, no, I should owe him too much.
In this world, no matter how great the favor is, it is the other party who lost his life for you.
In these several major battles, Wang Qi has sent troops to the rescue, and it goes without saying that the various expenses of several times and three times, not to mention, the brothers who died in the war and lost them, that is a large number, thousands of people.
With so many lives, I'm afraid that I will not be able to finish my next life.
In addition to money, I can only comfort and mourn Wang Qi, and other than that, I only pray that his side will not encounter any more wars from now on.
I really don't want any of us to lose any more.
Although they are from different units, the brothers have been together for a long time, and they have all come down from the battlefield, back-to-back brothers, and the relationship is even deeper than can be described.
So, no one wants anything to happen to anyone.
The least loss was General Ma's fault, he led 10,000 people out of the city, and in the end only a few hundred people were wounded, and only a few people were killed in the battle, which is the least.
As for Jin Erpang and them, several of them have been following me to kill, although there are not many people killed in the battle, the soldiers under my command were scattered when I was surrounded and beaten by the Qing army, and some rushed over to rescue and were separated, so the losses of my men in this war were not small, and thousands of people died in battle.
Therefore, after the final battle, more than 12,000 of our soldiers were killed in the battle, and even more were wounded, no less than tens of thousands.
Therefore, this big war is also a big blow to me, although our team is growing, but my brothers are also leaving.
From the very beginning of coming to the county seat, General Ma's people, Li Qing's army, Jin Erpang's brothers, the three teams combined, but more than 10,000 people, but now Li Qing has nearly 20,000 people, General Ma has developed to more than 8,000, Jin Erpang also has more than 5,000 brothers, and even the thin monkey also trains every day with a brother army of thousands of people.
And my escort has thousands of people.
In the current county town, the army has a total of more than 35,000 people, but from the beginning of the battle to the present, the number of brothers killed in the battle is no less than 5,000, these brothers followed me, and finally lost their lives, in my heart, I only feel sorry for them.
Now that our ranks have grown, there are also General Mole who directly receive my orders, so these ranks add up to seventy or eighty thousand people.
But there are so many troops, which makes me very troubled, not to mention the things that need to be dealt with, I also have to plan for their future.
Sooner or later, I will kill Chen Yuanyuan and leave here, and sooner or later this Yunnan will be occupied by Wu Sangui, and finally ruled by the Qing army.
But I was worried about what would happen to so many people at a time when they were so many, and whether they would end up dying miserably.
I don't want these people to follow me, but in the end, they all suffer, but these are all living lives, close to 100,000 people.
"General, this is an account, I can be considered to have made it!"
Jin Erpang walked in and handed me a thick account book, which was full of records of the consumption of these wars on us.
"A total loss of one million taels?"
Oh my God, that's a terrifying number, and it's incredible, isn't it?
"Yes, I calculated for more than two months, and finally counted it, I don't dare to tell you this account, these wars, for us is really a huge loss, millions of silver losses, general, if this continues, we will be swallowed up sooner or later, no matter how much money we have, we can't stand such losses, right?"
Jin Erpang frowned bitterly, what he said was right, even if we have money, but who will suffer such a loss?
"Yes, we really can't afford to fight such a big battle, how much time has it been, and it has consumed us so much, think about it, if these silver taels are exchanged for food, then how many years will the people in the county be guaranteed to eat?"
