Chapter 463: A Great Victory!
"General Ge, thanks to you for sacrificing your life to save you today, we will definitely repay you today's kindness in the future!" But after the six generals arrived at the safe area, they said to Liu Bang gratefully at the same time.
"It's all those untouchables who don't know what to do, everyone knows that the untouchables shouldn't even have a shadow in front of us, and now it's just a matter of letting them give up a few miles of land, and they dare to disobey our orders, and they deserve to be killed by the Scourge Legion!"
"Yes, even if they come back alive, I will kill them all to set an example!" Several generals said indignantly.
No way, the situation today is a little too dangerous. With the rebellion of the untouchables outside, the generals' guards were soon all wiped out.
After all, as nobles who are absolutely not able to take a look at the untouchables, their guards must also be nobles, for example, the guards of the Gong clan are all made up of scholars, and at the very least, they must be served by the dust clan.
But since he is a nobleman, that person's ability can be imagined, anyway, he is not at all the opponent of these untouchables who fight with wild beasts every day, and he was quickly killed.
Seeing that these red-eyed untouchables were about to boldly slaughter the noble princes, Liu Bang appeared, and he took his own 1,000 elite soldiers to successfully break through the encirclement of these untouchables and rushed into the camp tents of the six generals.
Then he put a golden cloth over their heads, and ordered them to rush out on their shoulders.
How did they rush out, because their heads were covered, and the generals couldn't understand it, anyway, they heard a fierce sound of swords and guns colliding, as well as the shouts of the Cataclysm Legion, and finally everything calmed down, after the cloth cover on their heads was removed, Liu Bang was already covered in blood, and the elite of the day he carried, only a few people were still with him.
According to Liu Bang, these people were all heroic warriors on the battlefield, but they were fortunate to save the generals from disgrace.
These generals were also very moved, after all, Liu Bang saved their lives, and they still understood the weight of saving their lives.
And Liu Bang is also very caring, and he actually deliberately put a hood on them, so as to prevent them from seeing those untouchables with the naked eye, so as to avoid their eyes being polluted, Liu Bang is really very caring.
The only problem is that Liu Bang seems to be a pariah, but since he has become a general, that level must be different from other pariahs, and all the generals treat him as a dust clan kindly.
So there was an opening dialogue, and these generals were grateful to Liu Bang.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, it is better for us to go back soon!" Liu Bang said, the six generals nodded hurriedly, and then followed Liu Bang all the way, and finally returned to the territory of the water province and reported the situation of this battle to the above.
After learning that the million-strong army had been wiped out, all the princes of the seven provinces were stunned, and then they were madly angry.
After all, this million army was made up by them for a year, not to mention whether they have a year or not, it is difficult to get so many more people just for the population needed by the million army.
Some people may wonder, the seven provinces have tens of millions of people together, so why can't they get the second 1 million?
That's because the previous losses were much more than 1 million.
In the previous year's battles, although the armies of the seven provinces won more and lost less, they lost most of the soldiers in each battle, and if they wanted to replenish the soldiers, they had to be recruited from various villages.
As a result, nearly 5 million people were conscripted into the army in one year, so if a coalition of millions were to be rebuilt, the total number of conscripts would reach 6 million, almost one-tenth of the total population of the seven provinces.
In this way, the difficulty of conscription can be imagined, even the princes of the seven provinces who do not care about human life can not sit still at this time, and they have sent special envoys to question these seven generals.
After learning of this result, several generals were naturally on pins and needles, but fortunately, Liu Bang appeared again at a critical time, and he took the initiative to find the six generals and asked them how they planned to report the battle situation this time.
The six generals were at a loss and didn't know how to speak, so Liu Bang took out a report he wrote and handed it to the six generals and said, "This is the war report written by the last general, please see if there is any difference between it and the actual situation!" ”
These generals immediately took this report in their hands, only to see that the report said that they led a million troops to fight a decisive battle with the enemy army with high morale. But I didn't expect that the enemy army did not pay attention to martial virtues, and said that it was a battle of a million troops, but in the end, tens of millions of people were gathered, and the army was at a disadvantage of being absolutely surrounded by the enemy.
However, the six generals did not have the slightest fear and fear, and the soldiers led by them bravely fought a fierce battle with the enemy, and did not retreat even to the last soldier.
In the end, the 1 million army killed and wounded 9 million of the enemy, but the Scourge Corps followed the conspiracy and tricks to induce all the soldiers to rebel.
The 6 generals still didn't have any timidity, and used their own strength to fight their way out of the encirclement, but it was a pity that the pro-guards all died in the process of breaking through, but the 6 generals came back unscathed.
Although the initial strategic goal of recovering Ding Province was not realized, it annihilated a large number of enemy troops, thwarted the enemy's spirit, carried forward the military prestige of the Zhou State, and finally was able to break through successfully in the face of a desperate situation, which fully reflected the strong command ability and personal strength of the six generals.
So overall, it's a winning battle.
After reading this report, the six generals were stunned for a moment, and then asked in ecstasy, "General Ge, have we really won the war?" ”
"Of course I won!" Liu Bang said without hesitation, "We killed 9 million enemies with 1 million people, and in the end we had to retreat under the enemy's conspiracy and tricks, and in the end we were able to get out of the encirclement safely. ”
The six generals quickly reached an agreement, and they all signed the suspension report, and when the envoys from their respective provinces came running to question, they naturally answered according to the same language.
Does the Seven Grand Dukes know that there is something wrong with the situation?
This is uncertain, but one thing is certain, that is, for the common people, it is definitely better to win the battle than to defeat the war.
Although the victory is over, the men and children of their own family have not returned, after all, winning the battle is also a death!
Therefore, this report was immediately unanimously approved by the seven provinces, and Zhou Tianzi even praised the six generals in the edict, and criticized Ge Bang for a while, and then ordered him to reorganize the army of the seven provinces, coordinate all the military supplies in the seven provinces, and train a million troops again in a year.
All of a sudden, they were all happy.
The Seven Grand Dukes were very happy, after all, they had won the battle.
Zhou Tianzi was also very happy, after all, he successfully took away the military power of the Seven Grand Dukes, and then handed it over to his own people who he had single-handedly raised.
Liu Xu was also very happy, after all, even all the enemy troops were his own people.
The only unhappy person is probably Liu Bang.
