Bai Jia Erzhen, who was the leader, saw Chongzhen leading the vanguard cavalry into the corner of the city wall, and he was helpless and afraid of being ambushed, so he roared angrily, led the army to suddenly turn, and ran quickly in the direction of Manggu Taili Village.

Although the time in China is in the summer when the days are long and the nights are short, the rainy night always falls faster than the sunny day.

The sun finally showed its head in the west, and then sank again, leaving only a rare moist sunset on the horizon, and soon the brilliance was quickly lost.

The last glimmer of light reflected the last Guanning iron horse rushing into the Guangshun Gate, and the heavy city gate slammed shut.

It indicates that this war, which has lasted for a day unconsciously, has come to an end in a victory that is not big or small, but it is hearty enough to take the initiative.

The night count was counted, and the casualty report came out quickly.

On the first day of the Ningjin Battle of Jinzhou Guard, the ancestor of the Guanning Army, in the battle to guard the north gate of the town, lost more than 1,000, seriously injured more than 5000, and slightly injured more.

On the first day alone, only one section of the city wall suffered such huge casualties, which shows the fierceness of the Houjin army's offensive and the resoluteness of the Guanning army's counterattack.

As for the gain, Zu Dashou can't settle it for Houjin, but it can be roughly estimated.

The casualties of the Han serf army will not be less than two thousand.

The casualties of the soldiers of the Eight Banners of Jiannu will not be less than 1,000.

This is still the most direct data, those who later die because of the severity of the injury or the wound is infected.

In Huang Chongzhen's words, that is, "non-combat direct attritionists", are not counted.

If you count it, you will get more.

After all, the Jiannu Army did not have the wounded treatment system of the Guanning Army, and the Han Serf Army, which was in the status of slaves, was not to mention that even the last fig leaf was about to be taken away by Jiannu.

The new medical system of the Guanning Army was initiated by Huang Chongzhen, the joint efforts of many military doctors, and the joint supervision, support, and trust of all soldiers.

After more than a year of development, a relatively complete system has been established and rich experience in the treatment of the wounded has been accumulated.

Chongzhen never regarded it as his own credit, but only thought that it was the well-being of all Guanning soldiers.

He was very relieved that Guan Ningjun would make these changes under his guidance.

In front of the drum tower in the central school field of Jinzhou City, Chongzhen, who led the army to attack, met Wu Sangui again.

Looking at Wu Sangui's wet and tired face after tearing off his mask and taking off his helmet, Chongzhen gave him a heartfelt thumbs up and exclaimed: "It's really yours, it's hard work." ”

He looked at the young knights behind Wu Sangui who were full of tiredness on their childish faces, but their eyes were full of energy because of this hearty charge, and shouted: "The tubes have worked hard. ”

Wu Sangui looked up to the sky and snorted haha, but the little soldiers did not roar in unison to "serve the people", but smiled shyly and slowly untied the armor on their bodies.

The heavy armor of the heavy cavalry was difficult to remove, and the whole body was wrapped in thick iron armor, a hearty charge, coupled with the huge pressure from the white armored cavalry, made them sweat like pulp, and their bodies were hot like fire.

I can't help but remove the iron armor, and then run to the top of the drum tower to blow the wind, so that the hot body can quickly cool down, but I got the instructions of the military doctor, and I have some scruples, so I only let my comrades slowly help remove the armor.

Wu Sangui, who is self-assured and strong, doesn't care much about this, and ordinary military doctors don't dare to scold him like ordinary soldiers, so he can really treat him obediently.

I saw Chongzhen glaring at Wu Sangui, who was scolding the house slave for helping him remove his armor quickly, but said lightly: "If you don't want your body to die like this, just honestly follow the instructions of the military doctor and come step by step." ”

Wu Sangui was most annoyed by Chongzhen's old appearance that came out of his bones, and he was confident that he had made the first contribution in this battle, so he glared back without showing weakness, and said angrily rather unconvinced: "You are less verbose. ”

Chongzhen said slowly, "You really look like a person." ”

"Who?"

"A founding general of my Ming Dynasty, a fierce general who commanded the cavalry to conquer the city."

"Chang Yu Chun?"

"Congratulations, you got it right."

"Really?" Wu Sangui was overjoyed in his heart, and he was furious, and said, "General Chang is fierce, but he can't die well, and it is said that he died violently, you are cursing ......."

Seeing that Wu Sangui shrank his neck halfway through speaking, Chongzhen stepped forward, sprayed all the saliva on his face, and scolded angrily: "How did you react? It's really alive and going back! ”

Wu Sangui angrily rubbed his face fiercely with the hands of the general who had finished removing his arm armor, and then vented all his anger on the house slave, and said angrily: "Slow down! What to do so fast! Are you looking forward to Young Master Ben's return to the West as soon as possible? ”

Wu Laosan, these ordinary Wu family slaves, immediately resigned to their promises, and they have long been accustomed to the arrogance of this domineering young master to them, and they have long been accustomed to the way their young master and the locust general love and kill each other, and even have some confessional ways of communication.

The firm friendship between most young people is always forged at the expense of each other.

As a result, the little cavalry warriors who had just experienced a birth and death did not feel that there was anything wrong with this, but watched the battle happily, laughing and resting while doing the things at hand.

Although the defensive capability of Jinzhou City has greatly eliminated the chance of the Houjin army robbing the camp in the night, the second arduous offensive and defensive battle may still come at any time.

Therefore, no matter what stage of the war it enters, preparations for war must be carried out at all times.

At night, the rain began to fall again, knocking on the black tiles.

After the raindrops are broken by the tiles, they merge into a trickle, forming a rain curtain along the tile ditch, and falling under the stone-paved eaves through the eaves.

The horses were taken to the stables by the military grooms to be pacified and rested, and the soldiers finally had time to repair.

Some of them lay down in the barracks when they were full, and some of the big stomachs who couldn't eat enough still squatted under the eaves, holding a large porcelain bowl and pulling rough but full food into their mouths.

Eating happily, and looking at the dark night sky blocked by the eaves, probably because I feel that the future is promising, and I am full of longing for the beautiful life of taking a mother-in-law and giving birth to a doll in the future.

However, Zu Dashou, who had received the casualties of various departments, pushed away the half-eaten coarse porcelain bowl, and struggled to piece together a few numbers, so that he could no longer eat it.

One city gate, one city wall, one day of battle, there have been nearly 2,000 casualties.

So how many days can a city, with four gates and four walls, be defended?

Zu Dashou stretched out a pair of big rough hands, and found that his ten thick fingers were completely sufficient.

So, he walked out of the Jinzhou Town Shou General's Mansion and came to a very simple, but very clean and bright barracks.

I saw him angrily find Chongzhen and Sangui, who were happily sharing weal and woe with the soldiers, from a group of cavalry soldiers with rough faces and rude behavior, but who had washed their bare feet cleanly.

The soldiers had long been accustomed to General Zu's strange behavior of going to Chongzhen's small garrison to discuss the military situation at every turn, and those outside were immediately on alert, and those inside spontaneously formed an impermeable circle.

Zu Dashou, who was dressed in civilian military uniform, waved his hand, signaling that everyone did not need to be nervous.

After all, for more than a year, Yuan Chonghuan resolutely purged Hou Jin Xizuo, Chongzhen firmly carried out spy warfare, and trained a large number of scouts, and resolutely launched a-for-tat action against Hou Jin Xizuo, and the results were very remarkable.

Zu Dashou, who was entrusted with the important task by Yuan Chonghuan for the first time, may still be a little nervous about whether he can hold Jinzhou, but he has absolute confidence that it is impossible for Houjin's fine work to sneak into the city.

As soon as Chongzhen glanced at the appearance of Zu Dashou, he knew that this rough-looking man was actually nervous to death in his delicate heart, so he smiled and said: "The general doesn't have to worry, Jiannu broke two records in a row today, and his morale was damaged, and he will definitely not be as brave as he is today when he attacks the city tomorrow." ”

Zu Dashou raised his eyebrows, and immediately said: "Breaking the record? That's what it means to be a precedent, right? An unprecedented defeat in the field, this is one of them. The white-armored cavalry suffered a setback for the first time, and this was the second. Right? ”

Chongzhen said: "One blow, then decline, three and exhaustion, this is the eternal principle." The general said it perfectly. ”

Zu Dashou was worried, and immediately became arrogant again, and waved his fist fiercely: "What if you are still brave?" Jinzhou City is under the guard of the general, and the soldiers are united, impregnable, and afraid of him. ”

Wu Sangui said: "Yes, yes, besides, the heavy rain will definitely extinguish Jiannu's ambition to invade my Guanning." One hopes that the rain will be heavier and heavier tonight. ”

Chongzhen nodded and praised: "The young general has also begun to think about the time of day, this is the blessing of Guan Ning, and it is gratifying." ”

Wu Sangui, who was praised, immediately floated, stretched his neck to lower his voice, and said obscenely like a king: "Why don't you lead the army out of the city tonight to rob a camp in order to continue the glory of the day?" ”

Regarding Wu Sangui's suggestion, Chongzhen has always had only two attitudes - stern reprimand, laughing and not speaking.

This time, Chongzhen chose the latter, after all, the uncle of the chief soldier was on the scene, so he always had to save some face.

Sure enough, Zu Dashou glared fiercely at this cheap nephew with an expression of "you are a fool", although the battle was brave, but he couldn't even hear the implication of "you are also a fierce general".

God rarely fulfilled Wu Sangui's expectations, the night was getting deeper and deeper, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier.

Jinzhou, which had been tested for a whole day, finally fell completely silent, and there was not a single light in sight, except for a group of sentries wearing robes and hats, still firmly guarding the four city gates to prevent surprise attacks.
