Chapter 263 Civil strife in the Eastern Jin Dynasty
The battle situation was decided, and Zhao Yun, Qi Jiguang, Fu Youde and others led two divisions to cross the Meng River and commanded the soldiers and horses to set up camp.
As for Chai Cun and Dong Run, they led the rest of the soldiers and horses to clean up the battlefield, because they were afraid of breeding plague, so the army of Qianguo would dispose of the corpses immediately after the war, and there were two different plans for dealing with the corpses of the enemy and me.
As for the disposal of the enemy's corpses, the Qianguo method of disposal is relatively simple, directly piling them up, and then lighting them on fire.
Because it is an ancient background, NPC's inherent idea is to be buried in the ground, and they are very resistant to cremation, so when dealing with the soldiers on the other side, most of the cadres will dig a big pit on the spot, bury the fallen soldiers collectively, and then set up a wooden tombstone to record the battle for future generations to worship and remember.
Another way to deal with it is to take the body home and bury it to relatives, but there is a prerequisite here, that is, it will not affect the next battle, so this situation is generally after the final battle against the enemy.
And when Zhao Yun was cleaning up the battlefield here, planning to rescue Wang Shao, and defeat Zhou Wan, Xi Jian fled all the way to the temporary camp where Zhou's army was stationed.
After receiving the report of the soldiers guarding the camp, Zhou Wan and Huang Jiashan personally went out to greet the ......
"I am ashamed of the trust of the king!" As soon as Xi Jian saw the two of them coming, he hid his face and cried, which made Zhou Wan's heart almost sink to the bottom.
In his opinion, Zhao Yun is the number one general in the East China Sea, and it is not unacceptable for Xi Jian to be defeated and retreated, but now Xi Jian, who is the main general, has run over alone, which is too incredible, after all, on their side, in addition to the original nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses of Xi Jian's army, there are also Xiao Duyu's 200,000 alien troops.
"The Inhuman forces are on the verge of defection?!" Listening to Xi Jian's crying, Zhou Wan asked in a deep voice.
"They retreated...... Xi Jian immediately told him and Xiao Duyu's plan to encircle the Silver Dragon Army, and told him all about the sudden return of Zhao Yun's army and its final release.
After listening to Xi Jian's words, Zhou Wan suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell, but fortunately, Huang Jiashan, who was on the side, supported him in time, and he repeatedly commanded the soldiers and horses to fight with the cadres, he was already exhausted, and the bad news brought by Xi Jian became the last straw that overwhelmed him.
"General, your body is important!" Huang Jiashan looked at Zhou Yu, whose face was pale all of a sudden, and his spirit was sluggish, and he couldn't help but advise with concern.
In this regard, Zhou Wan waved his hand: "Don't make a noise about the matter here for the time being, let the generals immediately come to the tent to discuss the strategy of resisting the cadres!" ”…… After Wang Shu left from Shuai and returned to his tent, his face instantly gloomy.
He is the son of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Imperial Shi Wang Hui, the cousin of the prime minister Wang Dao, who was previously dispatched by the imperial court to serve under Zhou Wan, resist the cadre army, and stick to Jimo County.
However, because at the clan meeting, he heard the head of the family, Wang Dao, vaguely mention the intention of attaching himself to the Qianguo, so after coming to Jimo County, in order to show his loyalty to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he has been dutifully abiding by the military orders, but he has not made a plan, and tried to avoid friction with the Qianjun.
Originally, Wang Shu was ready to mix up like this, regardless of the victory or defeat of the two armies, but just now, he summoned them, and after explaining the situation of Xi Jian's army, he proposed to take advantage of the fact that the Silver Dragon Army had gone through a big battle and rested by the river, and launched a strong attack on Shangmo City overnight, annihilating Wang Shao's army in one fell swoop, and then turning around to fight against the Silver Dragon Army!
At present, Wang Shao's internal contradictions are very large, if the Eastern Jin Dynasty army really wants to launch a strong attack, I am afraid that Wang Shao will not be able to hold out for a while, and he will have to sink in the sand, and the defeat of the Eastern Jin Dynasty is a foregone conclusion.
But Wang Shu didn't want to bury the Eastern Jin Dynasty, although he only served under Zhou Wan, and the cadres might not hold him accountable because of the Wang family, but if the cadres died too many people on the side of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it would inevitably affect the status and reputation of the Wang family in the Qianguo in the future, which he did not want to see!
Wang Shu intended to stop Zhou Wan's madness before his death, but as a son of the Linlang Wang clan, if he openly led the army to rebel, it would also make the Wang clan follow him and humiliate.
"General Wang, General Guo Mo asks to see!" Just when Wang Shu, who didn't know what to do, was anxiously pacing back and forth in the camp tent, the sound of his own soldiers came from outside the camp tent at the right time.
After hearing the report of the soldiers, Wang Shu suddenly became a little excited, this Guo Mo was born humble and brave and good at fighting, when the Eastern Jin Dynasty unified Linlang County, he became a homeless handsome, well-cared for, won the hearts of the people, and later won the favor of Wang Dao, and became a protégé of the Wang family.
"Enter!" As Wang Shu spoke, a burly middle-aged man walked in slowly.
"Xuanxiong, didn't General Zhou ask everyone to reorganize their troops and horses and attack the city overnight? If you don't understand the soldiers and horses, what are you doing here? Although Wang Shu had a guess in his heart, he pretended to ask the other party at this time.
"General Wang, the current situation is critical, a certain will not beat around the bush, the general trend of the Eastern Jin Dynasty has gone, Zhou's visit to this move is clear to fight to the death with the Qianjun, a certain heard the grapevine that the Wang family has the intention of attaching to the Qianguo, so I want to ask the general's meaning...... As long as the general nods, a certain Guo Xuanxiong is willing to serve the Wang family. After Guo Mo entered the camp, after seeing that Wang Shu was the only one inside, he spoke directly, with murderous intent in his eyes.
Although Wang Shu had already guessed, he didn't expect the other party to be so direct, and after a little consideration, Wang Shu sighed and said: "Wu Linlang Wang has no second thoughts about the king of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and you want to talk nonsense here!" And by thy words today, I shall put thee to death on the spot...... Now that I have fallen into your hands, if I want to kill you, I will never be able to join forces with you and betray my king! Listening to Wang Shuyizheng's reprimand, Guo Mo was obviously stunned for a moment, but he immediately reacted and shouted loudly: "The Eastern Jin Dynasty has gone, and the Qianguo is what everyone expects. ”
"Humph! Dream! Listening to Wang Shu's angry shout, but in reality, he had already handed over his talisman and personal sword to Guo Mo.
Guo Mo took the talisman and the matching sword, and then at Wang Shu's request, he gagged it and stayed in the barracks.
