Gradually, the smoke of gunpowder covered the embankment of the lake, only the roaring sound of artillery continued to sound, and the sound of shouting and killing was faintly audible.

The pedestrian street is a little chaotic, the originally clean and smooth street, the vibrant green flowers and vegetation, like a hailstorm, very sluggish.

The merchants and people here were transferred yesterday, and the lord's palace promised that all destroyed buildings would be repaired free of charge, that all damaged furniture and products would be compensated according to the price, and that all public buildings, including stations, greenery, roads, and public facilities, would be restored after the war.

The heads of the businesses who were reluctant to evacuate also reluctantly left under the arrangement of the Ministry of Public Security.

At the same time, the Government Council also promised that for every day the commercial street is blocked, the government will compensate the business for a day's shortfall, and the guarantor is the current auspicious lord, Wang Xuan!

The security guards in the sentry box looked at the stone bullets that fell from time to time and looked sorry.

I'm afraid the tiles on these roofs are going to be replaced, these dog things.

And those transparent glass windows, intoxicating light-colored transparent glass, every fragment is like meat cut from their bodies.

These are auspicious treasures, and now they are being devastated by injustice. This brick and tile, grass and tree, are all the efforts of the auspicious person, but they are not trampled by this group of demons.

"These bunch of crumbs!"

"Captain, I applied to go to the lake embankment, but people didn't approve it. ”

"Me too, what I say about maintaining law and order is also to contribute to the young master and the territory, and what we do is just as great. ”

"Great fart, those gang of soldiers, will fool people, why doesn't he change with us? ”

The captain was full of complaints, you must know that at the beginning, all the major detachments under the Ministry of Public Security had people apply to go to the front.

These people are not to earn any credit, but simply want to do something for auspiciousness, just want to fight with those moths, just want to prove that they are also a purebred mascot, although we are not heroes, but we are not a bad breed.

They are not afraid of hardship, hardship, and death, and they want to tell the group of miscellaneous people on the other side that they want wealth and exchange their lives for it.

"Okay, stop complaining, look at everywhere, you can't afford to lose the corners here. ”

"Yes. The crowd replied with little energy.

The security team members also know that the matter has come to this point, and it is better to do their own things well first, otherwise they will be criticized for a small matter, and it will be a big loss of face.

There are several temporary hospitals on the embankment, each of which is staffed by two doctors and several nurses, so that a close medical network is formed and the treatment time is shortened.

"Doctor Chen, let's apply for support, there are too many wounded soldiers, and we can't let go of this No. 3 temporary treatment point. A young female nurse said.

The doctor, surnamed Chen, stopped what he was doing and looked at the wounded and sick people who were crowded everywhere, gritting their teeth one by one, enduring the pain, and not wanting to cry out.

Dr. Chen had mixed feelings, he was an outsider who had only been living in Jixiang for a year.

At the beginning, it was also for the auspicious preferential treatment that he dragged his family to Jixiang, and with his good medical skills, he was recognized by the research institute and entered the auspicious nationality.

At the beginning, he didn't understand why Xiao Jixiang could develop so quickly in just two years, which was fascinating.

Now, looking at these young or old faces who gritted their teeth and persisted, he realized, and at the same time, his heart hurt.

auspicious, rely on you to protect, and I'm here to protect you!

"If you persist, there is not enough manpower now, and the medical team should be coming soon, and the seriously injured should be cared for and labeled, ready to be handed over at any time. Xiao Zhang, when you are tired, lie in the corner of the wall to rest, but you must not fall down. ”

Dr. Chen told the female nurse surnamed Zhang, who was a little worried when she saw that her face was sallow, her expression was haggard.

Although he was also tired, he could not rest, and most of the people who were sent now were seriously injured, and if he delayed it, a living life would be lost.

If he dies on the battlefield, he will be fully loyal, but if he dies in the hands of his own inaction, he will be at peace in his heart.

The vow I made when I became a glorious physician still rings in my ears.

"Health is tied to life.

When I become a glorious auspicious physician, I solemnly swear:

I volunteered to dedicate myself to medicine, love the territory, be loyal to the Lord, abide by medical ethics, respect teachers and discipline, study hard, work tirelessly, and strive for excellence.

I am determined to do my best to eliminate the pain of mankind, to help the perfection of health, to maintain the sanctity and honor of medical skills, to save lives and help the wounded, to work hard and persistently, and to strive for the development of medicine and the physical and mental health of human beings in the territory for the rest of my life......."

"I'm not going, I'd rather die of exhaustion than watch them die of pain because no one is helping them. The nurse surnamed Zhang had tears in her eyes and replied a little stubbornly, "They bully people, one blazing flame can't do it, and this time there are many red flames." There are few of us, everyone has to be a few people, dozens of people, we can't retreat, let alone retreat, or that sentence, I'd rather die standing than live. ”

would rather die standing than live, this is what Wang Xuan said before the battle of Dongshan Pass.

"Okay, but a few of you should pay more attention to saving energy, don't be reckless, you have fallen, I don't know how many soldiers will fall with you. ”

Everyone understands this principle.

"Rest assured, Dr. Chen, we are all studying medicine and know this principle. The nurses replied.

At this moment, the medical inspection team arrived, and they were going to take the seriously injured patients to the rear to recuperate.

This is undoubtedly good news, the doctors and nurses at Medical Center 3 were all shaken and immediately became busy again.

The enemies below the embankment are like an endless tide, crashing into the embankment in waves.

A team of three, two veterans with one recruit, once two veterans are wounded or killed in battle, the recruits must be withdrawn and the reserve team is on top.

Some recruits insisted on not retreating, looking at the big brother who used to take care of them like a brother and a father, or died in battle, or was seriously injured in front of them, the anger in their hearts had already broken through their minds, they were not afraid, they did not hesitate, they just wanted to kill the enemy in front of them and take revenge.

These people were the most difficult to deal with, they either died by the enemy's sword, or, they had to be knocked unconscious by the support team and dragged down.

By doing so, we are preserving the auspicious living force.

Even Wang Xuan didn't know how long this war would last.

The enemy is so strong that they can still recruit the same number of troops if they die thousand, ten thousand, or even one hundred thousand. And auspiciousness is different, one dies and one less.

These recruits who have experienced actual combat, if they survive, will transform into elite veterans, and they will replace those dead veterans, shoulder the heavy responsibility of inheriting the fire in the army, and leave more sparks for auspiciousness.

Veterans don't die, they just wither.

"What is this wave?"

"Back to the Lord, it's the third wave of support. Wang Yu said.

"It's the third wave, and the six hundred veterans are gone? It's only the first day!"

"This, according to the analysis of the statistical report of the medical inspection team, 236 veterans were killed in the war, 134 were seriously injured, and the rest were slightly injured. ”

"What about the recruits, how many survived?"

"Only half of them, some of them are seriously injured, and I don't know if they will survive. ”

Wang Yu understands Wang Xuan's feelings at this time, this is a Ming Jun, a Ming Jun who can't find flaws.

"Nutrition has to keep up, if there is a shortage of meat, use fish to make up for it, the shrimp and crabs in Lotus Town are a little big, let's ship them over. ”

"Yes, that's what I'm going to do. Qin Chao stepped forward to answer and arranged to go.

On the first day of the battle of the lake embankment, Jixiang lost nearly 400 veterans, 600 recruits, and 1,000 people just quietly disappeared.

Those who were directly hit by a stone bullet had a very low survival rate, and those who were lucky enough to have a few arms and legs could survive, and if they were hit in the head, chest and abdomen, they would die on the spot.

"The corpses are so good that they are collected, and those who are incomplete try to fight the whole corpse as much as possible, so that the family can see them again. ”

"Yes. ”

Twilight has arrived, and the moon hangs in the sky.

It was still dark on the embankment.

The enemy withdrew, and they did not have an advantage in the early attack, and then the target of the warship became the defenders of the lake embankment, and the three-kilogram stone projectiles were replaced by three one-kilogram shotshots.

This was something that the mascots did not expect, and they carried out a covering attack regardless of the lives of their own people.

The casualties of 1,000 people made the Jixiang army headquarters slaughtered.

Of the first 3,000 men thrown in by the enemy, less than 300 returned.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, the recruits of the reservists, down the ladder down the embankment, began to collect the corpses of the enemy.

Beforehand, this move was tacitly approved by the Combined Fleet, which is a good thing for both sides, and the plague does not distinguish between friend and foe.

The recruits below had been forbidden to eat dinner beforehand, and now they knew why.

Some have already vomited stomach acid, and those who have nothing to vomit can only vomit dry.

They worked hard all night, then drank some rice porridge, ate some pickles and fell asleep with difficulty, this will be a night they will never forget, this is the first lesson for recruits to complete their transformation, without a firm heart, they can only be an unqualified cannon fodder on the battlefield.

In the headquarters of the lake embankment, the lights were not extinguished all night.

"The enemy has 30,000 troops, and at most 20,000 have been used for the attack, and more than 3,000 have been lost successively, and an attack of this magnitude can be held out five times at most. ”

The staff officers analyzed the situation in front of them, and on the table was a comparison chart of the military strength of the two sides, and all the bigwigs present at the table were in the army.

"But there are not many veterans on our side, according to today's shameless fighting style of the other party regardless of accidental injuries, each time we will pay nearly a thousand casualties, and after five times, our veterans are afraid that there are not many left. If the other side does not give up and gathers men to attack again, how should we respond to the enemy?"

Speaking of which, there are still few mascots and can't afford to hurt.

"How can there be a war of immortals, this is a battle for life and death that is auspicious, if you win, there is still room for turning, and if you lose, everything will be stopped. Therefore, it is important to win the battle first. ”

The staff officers are not arguing, Wang Xuan understands their thoughts, and wants to exchange the smallest price for a greater victory, but how can there be so many good things in the world that fall on the head of Ji Xiang.

"However, there is one thing that is beneficial to our side, and that is the production capacity of artillery and gunpowder is increasing in an orderly manner. If this battle can be won and a truce of half a year is won, then after half a year, the lake embankment guards, the river fleet, etc. will have a qualitative leap. Wang Yu said.

This is a fact, and now the iron ore from Xishan is still being transported to the Hunan Military Port, and the pig iron ingots from Hudong are also transported to Jixiang by land.

The Sun family now had to try to remain neutral, as Wang Xuan expected, at this time he did not dare to fall into the ground. Moreover, this is a business dealing, and the Sun family has many ways to smooth out the adverse effects of this matter, and some of the principles are the same.

"At the moment, there are only two things we can do, one is to ensure the supply of supplies for the sergeants, and the helmets and cuirass must be replenished as soon as possible. Second, we must ensure the normal operation of the medical system, not let it collapse, and never choose who to save or who not to save. ”

Wang Xuan knew that the general trend was like this, and all he could do was to work all the small links that would determine the direction of the war, and the details would determine success or failure.

Hey, I don't know what the battle situation is on the other side of the aftermath of Hudong.

At this time, the aftermath was cleaning up the battlefield, and the cavalry regiment was chasing the fleeing enemy army.

Guan Hao, far to the north, under the "protection" of the Viper squad, rushed to the first ambush point with the security team overnight, calculating the distance, and arriving at noon the day after tomorrow.

And because the enemy is avoiding people's eyes, it would be good to be able to escape to the first ambush point the night after tomorrow, so there is plenty of time.

The aftermath was agitated, and he felt like he was back when he was twenty years old, full of ambition.
