Chapter 439: I don't know where the mistake is

For a moment, there was an eerie silence inside and outside the tent. As if seeing that Li Mu's heart was in turmoil, Zhao Kuo immediately looked at Li Mu and broke the silence and said, "Let's talk about the results and losses of the battle." ”

"Yes." The embarrassed Li Mu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, immediately clenched his fists and took his life, and began to talk about the results of the battle.

It's just that Zhou Qi, who was suffering outside the tent, was still stunned in place at a loss. Of course, even the most stupid person knows that he should have offended the general.

The so-called beating must stand upright, Zhou Qidang even restrained the joy of victory, put on a serious expression, and stood up for Zhao Kuo outside the big tent.

I only hope that the general can see that he will correct his mistakes and spare himself as soon as possible. Glancing at Zhou Qi, who had already restrained his smile and stood upright, Zhao Kuo's anger finally disappeared a little in his heart - this kid knew each other.

Of course, although the anger subsided, the punishment still had to continue, not only for the problems that arose in the battle, but also to completely erase the arrogance in Zhou Qi's heart, so as to fundamentally reverse his thoughts.

Immediately, Zhao Kuo focused his attention on Li Mu's report.

"Back to the General, the statistics so far." Li Mu adjusted his mentality slightly, and began to report: "In today's battle, our army killed more than 32,000 people under the Hu people Zuo Xianwang, and captured nearly 10,000 people, about less than 20,000 Hu people escaped from the camp, and it is expected that most of them will be caught up by the troops of our Dai County. Zhao Kuo nodded, but he didn't care, obviously, such a result had long been expected.

Zhao Kuo also knew very well that among the more than 30,000 people killed by his troops, I am afraid that more of them were not Hu soldiers, but ordinary herdsmen.

However, the practice of dismounting the Hu people as people and getting on horses as soldiers, perhaps as long as they are adult men, they should be counted as Hu soldiers.

It's just that, in addition to this, I am afraid that a large number of women and children will inevitably be injured. Even, among the Hu people who were killed and captured, women and children had to occupy a large proportion.

This is also a matter of no way, the march of the Hu people is different from that of the Zhao State, although it is a march to fight, it is still a tribal organization, and the migration of the family unit is carried out, if you want to distinguish between men and women and children one by one, such a surprise war cannot be fought at all.

The strong and healthy Hu soldiers are obviously more capable and probable than women and children to escape from the camp. This is also one of the reasons why Zhao Kuo did not stop the army from continuing to pursue and kill, among the nearly 20,000 people who escaped from the camp, I am afraid that nearly half of them are vigorous men among the Hu people.

Although going north is almost a dead end, but if their minds suddenly clear, turn the corner, and run to their Shan Yu, these routs are probably a sturdy man as long as they have a full meal.

This is what Zhao Kuo does not want to see. So, Zhao Kuo loosened the reins that bound the Daidi Army, and there was no need to think about it, the Daidi Army, which was hated by the country and the family, would definitely not be able to spare them once they caught up with the Hu people......

"What about the casualties?" Zhao Kuo then continued to ask.

"According to preliminary statistics, there were only more than 10 casualties, and the total number of casualties was about 100, most of which were caused by carelessness during the march, and more than a dozen were injured by our arrows because the impact was too fast." Li Mu replied slightly embarrassed.

Zhao Kuo, who heard the words, was also slightly stunned. It stands to reason that this number is not much, or even very few, after all, there are no less than 20,000 soldiers on the opposite side of the Hu people who can fight, plus other herdsmen, women and children, etc., the total number has reached more than 60,000 people, more than twice as many as themselves, even if they are raided by surprise, under the counterattack of the enemy, it is normal to have losses.

Even if it's a partial counterattack, it's enough to drink a pot of your own. Now there are only a few hundred casualties, which can almost be said to be a complete victory.

It's just, what happens if you're injured by your own arrows?! What about the elite? That's it?

If you encounter the elite Qin army, you must not only be wary of the enemy, but also be afraid of the arrows in your back, how can this battle be fought?

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Kuo quickly understood what the situation was! What's the situation? Say it's good, it's good to kill, but if it's not good, the archers and the cavalry in front are competing to kill.

It's just that this fight, is it the venting in the heart, or the merit of killing, or both?

! Zhao Kuo didn't want to guess, and he didn't want to guess, the instinct at that moment might be that he couldn't tell what it was for!

But Zhao Kuo knows very well that such a thing must not be allowed to happen in his own team. What he needs is an army that is like an arm, and it has been advancing at the sound of orders, regardless of the sword and the sea of fire; Mingjin retreated, and the iron-clad team that could give up the merits of the first climb.

Punishment is already a must!

"Order: The 100 cavalry of the department that was wounded by your own side, and the 100 cavalry of the department that injured others, all the merits of this battle will be cancelled." Zhao Kuo commanded coldly.

"General, this?" Li Mu obviously wanted to intercede a little for these two waves of people, this battle was a complete victory, if it was directly canceled, the soldiers of these two departments would suffer great losses, and the future treatment would probably lag behind their colleagues.

Although the two men and horses did violate the military order, after all, the two men and horses were the army of the land, and they both had a deep hatred for the Hu people, and their original intention was to kill and injure the Hu people more.

"Ci is not in charge of the army, such a punishment can be regarded as a lenient treatment" Before Li Mu's intercession words were spoken, Zhao Kuo had already interrupted him, and then continued to order: "Inform the whole army, if there is any disregard for military orders, shaking the front, and hurting colleagues, I will never be spared." Listening to the general's words, Li Mu obviously realized how harmful such an act was—today he could ignore military discipline because of the hatred of the Hu people, and tomorrow he would ignore military orders for other reasons?

This wind will not last long!

"Yes." Li Mu, who wanted to understand, immediately agreed. After dealing with the battle damage here, Zhao Kuo immediately looked at Zhou Qi, who was still standing guard at the door.

It's not bad, the body is straight, and there is no complaint. Zhao Kuo was satisfied, but whenever there was a little dissatisfaction on Zhou Qi's face, Zhao Kuo would immediately hide him in his heart, and the trump card in his hand must not be handed over to a general who was not satisfied with him, and there was no need for him to bother to teach a general who was not the same as himself.

"Come in." Zhao Kuo said lightly towards the door. Zhou Qi, who had already pricked up his ears, immediately heard the call to smash, and there was a burst of joy in his heart.

Of course, on the surface, he didn't dare to show half of it. Turning around, Zhou Qisan walked into the tent of the Chinese army in two steps, then knelt on one knee, clasped his hands into fists, and said loudly: "The sin will pass through the general." A set of flowing movements, apparently having already figured out how to excuse sins when he was just standing outside the tent.

"Oh?" Zhao Kuo watched Zhou Qi's smooth movements, and even laughed, obviously, he didn't think that Zhou Qi could know what he was wrong with.

"Tell me, what is your sin?" So, Zhao Kuo asked Zhou Qi not without a hint of ridicule.

"The sin general, the sin will ......" Zhou Qi frowned slightly, obviously although the action was thought about, he hadn't made up all the rhetoric, especially for where he made a mistake, in fact, Zhou Qi was still confused.

In the face of Zhao Kuo's sudden question, Zhou Qi of course was hesitant, but fortunately, Zhou Qi was also quick, and in an instant, a statement had already hit his heart, and he immediately replied respectfully: "The last general will win and forget his form, and he is guilty of arrogance." ”

"Proud soldiers?" Zhao Kuo heard this, but shook his head helplessly. Standing up, Zhao Kuo paced in front of Zhou Qi and said slowly: "What qualifications do you have to be proud?" This is a bit heavy, but it has to be said that it is the truth of the truth!

Zhou Qi, who heard the general's words, was even more cold sweating. Yes, what right does he have to be proud? Strategically, it is the initiative decided by the general; Tactically, the general also led the charge, and even in terms of specific command, Li Mu's credit was much higher than his own; The only one who can handle it may be the three hundred heavily armored cavalry who have made a contribution in this battle.

But these 300 heavy armored cavalry are not their own private soldiers, let alone because of their own achievements, and it can even be said that this heavy armored cavalry can still be invincible if they change any general.

So, what the hell are you proud of?! Zhou Qi asked himself. The final answer is already obvious - the victory for days has made me flutter and forgetful.

"The last will be convicted." Zhou Qi said to Zhao Kuo sincerely. Zhao Kuo snorted coldly, and then said, "Get up." As he spoke, he walked to the side of the sand table and said, "Come over to me." ”

"Yes." Li Mu and Zhou Qi immediately replied in unison. Walking in, the sand table is obviously made temporarily, and it is obviously a little rough compared to the previous sand table.

The two of them took a cursory look and suddenly felt very familiar. That's right, what is depicted on the sand table is not the Hu people on the East Road who are about to fight, let alone the Yan army department hidden in Zhao Kuo's heart, but the battle that has just been completed, the battle with the Hu people Zuo Xianwang!

"What is this?" Li Mu was a little puzzled. Zhou Qi knew that the general had always had the habit of reviewing after the war, but he also had some doubts in his heart.

It's not that Li Mu doesn't understand Zhao Kuo's intention to review after the war, it's just that from the perspective of Li Mu and Zhou Qi, this battle has been completely won both strategically and tactically, is there still a need for a review?

Do you want to find the merits of this battle? Listening to the general's previous tone, it obviously shouldn't be! Of course, Zhao Kuo didn't want to find the advantages in this battle, this was a battle with a huge disparity in strength, and the seemingly advantages were not enough to explain the problem at all, let alone inherit, but it was the problem in it, but it was worth discussing and analyzing.

That's right, Zhao Kuo is ready to give his two lovers a good post-war review class. The content of the course is on the use of heavy cavalry.
