Chapter 381: Funeral

It's over!

"Clean up the battlefield and count the casualties. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

It didn't take long for a list of personnel losses to be sent to Zhang Zheng, three pieces of A4-sized paper were densely filled with names, the paper was very light, and Zhang Zheng felt heavy when he got it in his hand.

The navy lost 58 people killed and more than 200 wounded, and the retinues and escorts of seven or eight merchant ships lost more than 500 people, and countless people were wounded, which can be described as heavy losses!

The battle was won, but Zhang Zheng was not happy at all, why is the world so cruel, hundreds of lives, in just half an hour, it is gone, completely gone......

Zhang Zheng felt very uncomfortable in his heart, but what could he do, really, he tried his best, war is inherently cruel and ruthless, and if you fight, you will definitely die, and no one can change it.

As the head of the fleet, no matter how uncomfortable he was, he could only endure it, the battle was over, he had to clean up the mess, and after trying to calm his mood, Zhang Zheng said to the guards who gave orders

"How are the injured brothers, the treatment conditions at sea are not very good, you let everyone use snacks and take good care of them!"

"Don't worry, young master, we will take care of the injured brothers......! I don't know how to place my dead brother ......"

According to Yan Huang's rules, never abandon any comrade-in-arms, people can die, but the corpse must not be thrown, no matter where they die, the corpse must find a way to get back to Tianxin City for burial, in the past, on land, it was not difficult to transport the corpse back, but now the situation is different, the sea is boundless, the fleet does not know when it will return, and the corpse cannot be stored for a long time, and it will definitely not work to bring it back to Tianxin City.

Zhang Zheng didn't know what to do for a while, he had a way, but he was afraid that the soldiers would not be able to accept it

"In this way, they are warriors on the sea, their battlefield is the sea, since they died at sea, then let the sea be their destination..."

"Of course, this is just my personal thoughts, you can ask the other brothers what they mean in a while, if you think it's inappropriate, then find a good place to bury on the land ahead!"

After speaking, Zhang Zheng waved his hand to let the guards go down, and he himself took the list of fallen officers of the Navy and looked at it seriously, he looked at it seriously, one name after another, as if he wanted to keep everyone in mind, and he didn't even notice that Lan Yu and several other women came to him.

"It's ......"

Yan Yang belongs to the kind of person who can't stop, and when she saw the list on the table, she took it straight without saying hello to Zhang Zheng

"I said that you are really not in shape, and you are hiding and stealing after this battle...... Lazy ...... "At this point, Yan Yang couldn't say anything behind, and she saw the contents of the list clearly

At the beginning, there are a few very glaring big words, dead people

Then the names are densely written below, and Yan Yang looks at the back page again, and it is the same!

Zhang Zheng still has a copy of such a list!

She stopped talking, looked at it a few times, and then carefully put the list back in its place. Several other people also found out about this, and then looked at Zhang Zheng, with a black face, his face was cloudy, and the blind could see that he was in a very bad mood now.

Zhang Zheng has been in a daze with the list in his hand, and he doesn't pay attention to a few people, and a few girls don't dare to disturb him, Xiao Xueqing's mouth is slightly open, and she wants to say something several times, but in the end she can't do it.

Finally, there was Blue Feather who was the first to break the silence

"Husband, are there any heavy casualties?"

"Hmmm......"

Zhang Zheng snorted lightly in response, and then handed the list in his hand to Lan Yu

"Fifty-eight were killed, and two hundred seventy-three wounded. ”

After speaking, Zhang Zheng held his face with both hands and rubbed it vigorously a few times before saying gloomily

"What about the losses of those merchant ships, and how big?"

"More than 500 dead, and even more wounded!"

After speaking, the atmosphere froze, and the faces of the girls also sank, and they did not come out in their respective rooms during the battle, but the sound of guns and cannons was heard clearly, they knew that the battle was fierce, but no one expected that it would be so fierce.

No one spoke, and the silence was broken until the guards who had just spoken came

"Young Master, I asked the brothers just now, and they decided to do what the young master wanted, and let the dead brothers return to the sea. ”

"Since everyone agrees, then let's do it, you go and let everyone prepare, get out of this fog quickly, and send the brothers on the road as soon as you go out!"

"Understood!"

The guard turned his head to leave, but Zhang Zheng suddenly thought of something and called out to stop him

"Those merchant ships have lost so many people, there is no problem in the arrangement of manpower, right?"

The guard replied

"Young master, don't worry, they expected that there would be danger before they set off, so they have prepared enough manpower, although the loss is large, but it will not hinder the normal navigation.."

"That's good! I'm fine, you go down first. ”

The merchant ships are fine, and there are no losses on the ships, which is a great luck in misfortune.

Moving on, the fog began to gradually become thinner, and the field of vision became wider and wider, and after a few hours, the fleet finally broke out of the fog area, and the golden sunlight sprinkled on the sea, shining with a little light, looking into the distance, vaguely to see the figures of the mountains, which looked distant and mysterious, revealing an atmosphere of eternal wilderness.

The second stop of the fleet, the new continent that has been pursued for a long time, has finally arrived.

It was a happy thing, but no one was happy at this moment.

Out of the foggy zone, the first thing the fleet did was not to accelerate towards its destination, but to stop the ship for the funeral of the dead.

"Flag at half-mast!"

"Honk!"

"Woo woo woo ......"

The trumpet sounded for a long time, and the tragic sound of the trumpet continued for a long time.

After the living warriors had cleaned themselves up, they changed into their regular clothes, and everyone put down what they were doing and walked out to the deck to pay a moment of silence for their dead companions

The dead were neatly arranged on the deck, dressed in brand-new military uniforms, covered with a yellow flag, and the five-clawed golden dragons were firmly wrapped around the remains, solemn and solemn!

The dead guards on the merchant ships did not have such treatment, but under the influence of the navy, the merchants changed the old practice of throwing them wherever they died, although they couldn't make it heavy, but they didn't belittle them too much, at the very least, the corpses were cleaned up, and they were given clean clothes.

With their abilities, they can only do this.

Fortunately, Zhang Zheng dared to hold a funeral for the dead soldiers, but the atmosphere was rubbed against the atmosphere, and it didn't look too bleak!

The horn is still ringing.

The funeral continues.

After the three-minute sound of the horn, Zhang Zheng shouted

"Today is a sad day, our comrades-in-arms, our brothers, hundreds of partners ......"

Zhang Zheng's nose is sour, and he can't go on talking about it, some people may say that he is hypocritical, that he is hypocritical, or that he will say that if Ci is not in charge of the army, a few people will not be able to stand it if he dies, and there is no general style at all.

But who knows, Zhang Zheng has never regarded himself as a general, he is just an ordinary person, his biggest dream is to live well, and he also hopes that others can live well.

In his eyes, every soldier is a living person, everyone has their own family, their own concerns, look at those people lying on the ground, their oldest is not much older than Zhang Zheng, and there are even many young people younger than him, seventeen or eighteen years old, follow his call, what to pursue ideals, change lives, change the world......

They came, with a lot of blood.

But as a result, the ideal has not been realized, the world has not changed, and the people are gone......

There are still so many things that have not been done, there are still so many scenery that have not been seen, and there are so many people who have not experienced in life, and they die like this, will they be willing?

Zhang Zheng didn't know, and he didn't dare to know, that these young people died, and the only thing he could do was to send them on their last journey

"Our comrades-in-arms, our brothers...... They sacrificed...... I know you're sad, but I want to say I'm proud because they died honorably and worthwhile......"

"They are dead, but they will live forever in our hearts, and we will always remember what they are today......"

In just a few words, Zhang Zheng paused several times before he finished speaking, he didn't deliberately sensationalize, and he didn't have impassioned words, it was unnecessary, he couldn't say it, he could say whatever he thought in his heart.

"Now, fire the cannons, and send the brethren on their way!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The main cannon was not loaded, and the roar of advancing gunpowder resounded through the heavens and the earth, and in the rumbling cannon, the remains of the soldiers were lifted, and then thrown into the sea, seeing this scene, everyone's eyes were moist, and Zhang Zheng roared

"Brothers, go all the way! See you in the next life!!"

"Go all the way!!See you in the next life!!"

"Go all the way!!See you in the next life!!"

Zhang Zheng's roar was like a lit powder keg, and all the soldiers roared in unison.

After a long time, the last body was launched into the water, and the cannon stopped!

"Let's go, let me take my brothers' last wishes and run to the new world!!"

The funeral was completed, the fleet was no longer delayed for a moment, and the horsepower was in full swing towards the New World, in the battle, some people died, some people were reborn, after the funeral, the living people regained their confidence and rushed to the unknown distance without hesitation.

At this moment, the fighting spirit of the navy is unprecedentedly high, and the cohesion is greatly improved, and now they are not only to complete their mission, but more importantly, to carry the hope of the dead brothers.

No matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead is, even if it is hell, you must go to a bad place, otherwise how can you be willing, how can you comfort the souls of your dead brothers in heaven!

"The self-attached cliff is difficult to eliminate, the wind and rain are shaking the tide, the wandering soul can know its will, and the spring is everywhere to see new seedlings ......"
