Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 32 Bronze Man
The afterglow of the setting sun faintly sprinkled on this piece of land that was full of peace and harmony two hours ago, but at this time, the dry and cracked land seemed to have been soaked with blood, and the soldiers who died in battle were carried out one by one and put in The body bags brought up by the logistics force were loaded onto the carriage one by one, waiting to be transported back to the camp.
Although sacrifices are unavoidable in battle, under Xiao Tang's suggestion, all soldiers who died in battle should be transported back to the main camp for burial as much as possible. This proposal was supported by Wufeng and formed a system. It inspired the spirit of all the soldiers. Perhaps in their view, being able to return to their homeland and rest in peace is the affirmation of a soldier's struggle. As for the corpses of the enemy's side, they didn't pay much attention to them. A few large pits were hastily dug, which was their shelter.
The battlefield has calmed down, and Mingzhu Town, which is a few miles away, seems to have not noticed the great battle taking place here, and everything seems to be so orderly. The captives were lined up in order and left the battlefield one by one under the close surveillance of the guarded soldiers. Only the soldiers in the logistics department were still cleaning the battlefield.
"Helian, have you got the statistics of the battle results?" Naturally, the commander-in-chief of this battle, Liang Chongxin, was asking the question. Several people felt a little strange.
"There is no big difference. Our side killed 685 people and injured 979 people. The total casualties were less than 1,700. We eliminated more than 2,200 people from the other side and captured There are more than 5,800 people, none of them slipped through the net, and 3,800 horses were also seized." Linghu Yi replied.
"This time we can be regarded as a complete victory, and we don't know how the Punjab people will react when they find out about the situation?" The brilliance of the next battle is obviously that this asymmetrical battle is not interesting enough.
"How else can they react? In two cases, you can either invest in a large force to fight with us, or come to negotiate with us, but I think the Punjab people will be scared out of their nerve after this battle." Ling Fox Wing shrugged, curled his lips dismissively.
"Boss Liang, you don't seem to be satisfied with our battle?" It was He Lianbo who saw that the coach had something on his mind and asked.
Shaking his head, Liang Chongxin seemed to want to say something, but he seemed to be still thinking about something, so he finally didn't say it.
For a while, several people fell into silence. Everyone did not understand what this tough and steady coach was thinking about.
After a long while, Liang Chongxin opened his mouth and said, "Have you noticed, where is our damage mainly?"
The coach's words immediately attracted the attention of several people, and everyone was silently thinking about the meaning of the coach's words.
"It seems that our main losses were caused by the part in the rear of the enemy's army." It was Linghu Yi who observed carefully and hesitated to say it.
"I have carefully observed the battle situation. The enemy should be composed of two parts. The private soldiers of the nobles account for the vast majority. Everyone has seen their combat effectiveness, but the enemy's rear army is their regular troops--- - Guards, the one who fought against Helian just now is probably the main general of the guards this time. Don't underestimate this force. I think their combat effectiveness is not much worse than ours. I just learned about it Well, this time they only dispatched two guards of thousands of cavalry, probably for the convenience of fighting for spoils, their generals put the guards in the rear, if the troops in front of them were not disrupted by us first The position has also disturbed the rear army, and I believe our losses will at least double." Liang Chongxin expressed his opinion calmly.
The words stirred up thousands of waves, and the others carefully recalled the words of the coach, while recalling the scene on the battlefield.
"But this guard army only has 2,000 people, and it still caused us such a large loss in an extremely passive situation, while the entire Punjabi guard army has a total of 50,000 people, everyone Let's think about it, what will happen to the prospect before us?" Liang Chongxin said in a low tone, obviously not optimistic about the prospect.
Seeing that after the battle, several of his subordinates looked a little arrogant, Liang Chongxin felt that it was necessary to remind these confident subordinates, that's why he said those words just now. However, his words were not exaggerated. The tribal guards of the Punjabs indeed consisted of 50,000 people, and their strength was impressive. Suo is also a well-known warrior in the guard army, a special operation team specially sent by the chief of the Punja people to **** the cloud mussel, but he did not expect to be encircled by Liang Chongxin and the others with superior forces, and the whole army was defeated The fate of being overwhelmed.
"Then how should we deal with it now?" Qu Bo raised his head and asked a little unconvinced. The purpose of this battle is to wipe out the enemy army. Now that the battle is over, it is impossible to take all the prisoners. Put it back and ask the other party's solution, right?
"Respond to all changes with the same. We have captured important figures among the Punjab people. I think the status of a few prisoners is not low among the Punjab people. Presumably they are not willing to see these people The end is noose, right? What's more, there are thousands of soldiers." With a slight smile, Liang Chongxin half-closed his eyes.
Somewhere on the embankment construction site along the Taiping River outside the city of Hanzhong Prefecture, Kansai County, there was a commotion as if a pot had exploded.
"Look, what a bronze man, why does he only have one eye?" a bare-chested peasant said, smacking his lips.
"Well, it looks like it has been around for thousands of years, right?" An old man over half a century old asked curiously while touching the rust spots on the bronze figure.
"I'm afraid it's been thousands of years. I think this is an old antique!" Another middle-aged man answered, with a strange look in his eyes.
"Eh? It looks like there are words on it!" A young man exclaimed in amazement as he pushed aside the soil covering the bronze figurine.
"Old Tian, Lao Tian, you still know a few words, come and have a look." A group of people around there hurriedly greeted an old man standing outside the circle.
"Let me take a look." Separated from the crowd, the old man snorted and spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, then bent down and carefully inspected the life-size bronze figure.
"Well, it seems to be two lines of poetry!" The old man blinked his eyes and observed carefully.
"Then read it to us." More and more people heard the news and gathered from around the river embankment. This is where the government recruited civilians from all over the country to repair the embankment that was destroyed by the flood. Some of them were originally prisoners in prisons, but the poor food and high-intensity labor have made these people full of complaints. Under the whip of the officials, they had no choice but to suppress their inner dissatisfaction. When they saw something new on the embankment, they would not take the opportunity to swarm up, and they could steal it for a while, not to mention that the officials had already hidden Went to rest in the shade.
"Well, let me take a look. The first sentence is that the bronze man of Xiudao has one eye." Seeing that there are more and more people, the old man was even more complacent, and wanted to show off, "As soon as this thing comes out` `````?" I couldn't read the last half of the sentence anymore, and my face became extremely pale, and beads of sweat the size of a bean rolled down my forehead.
"Huh? Why didn't you stop reading?" The people next to him stretched their necks and asked impatiently.
"What's going on? Old Tiantou, don't you usually boast that you have read a lot of poetry and books? Why are you stumped?" Several people booed again, "What are the next few words?"
Even though the people next to him were booing and laughing, the old man kept his mouth tightly shut, with a look of panic on his face, he got up and wanted to leave.
"Huh? Old Tiantou, what's the matter with you, have you seen a ghost?" Seeing the panicked look of the old man, the people around were very puzzled, and the people around were even more curious, and surrounded the old man, It was so tightly blocked that it was impossible to move an inch.
"No, no, old man, I suddenly have a stomachache, so I need to make it easier." Seeing that he couldn't get out of the circle of people, the old man was even more panicked~IndoMTL.com~ bowed again and again, hoping that the people around him would make way.
"It's strange, old Tiantou, just reading the last few words will delay your shitting, if you don't read the last few words to everyone today, we won't let you out!" The big man next to the old man had a sinister smile in his eyes and stopped the old man.
"Uncle Liu, Uncle Liu, let me go, I can't say the last few words." Seeing that he couldn't get away, he was worried that someone from the government would find out, the old man was even more nervous, and lowered his voice to plead for mercy.
"I can't say it? Why can't I say it?! Whatever the king of heaven, you have to read the next few words to us, otherwise you don't want to leave!" The man called Liu Da said to the surrounding Roar: "Everyone said, didn't you?!"
The people around him booed, "Yes! If you don't read it, you won't let him go, you will suffocate him!"
Seeing more and more people, the old man was so frightened that he sweated through his heavy clothes, and hurriedly whispered: "Uncle Liu, the following words are Tian-xia-fan."
"What?! Heaven--under--anti?!" Then Liu Da deliberately raised his voice so that everyone next to him could hear him clearly, and deliberately asked back.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, the old man trembled and almost fainted, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and nod.
Immediately, someone linked the two lines of poems together and read: "Xiu Dao's bronze man has one eye, and this thing will be reversed as soon as it comes out of the world!" Soon some people began to chant, and more and more people were chanting, and their voices became louder and louder.
Under the repeated guidance of the caring people, more and more people read the chanting, and the voices became more and more orderly, and soon gathered into a huge roar that resounded through the sky: "Xiu Dao Bronze Man has one eye, this thing will be released in the world!" Against! The world is against! The world is against!"
