Chapter 420: Being buried in peace

Macheng has a lot of experience in war.

War does not mean pulling the standing army out to conquer the world. After military mobilization, a large number of new recruits will be added to the army and expanding the army on a large scale based on the standing army.

In this way, the first, second and third-line troops need to be divided according to the elite level.

Now Kaiyuan's main infantrymen have about twenty battalions, eight cavalry battalions, and the rest are troops from the second and third lines.

The matter was left to the Staff Office. After the battle, the combat unit of the Staff Office was finally able to establish its unique position in the army. Just as he was staring at the sunrise in the east, he was stunned, and the front line suddenly became an uproar, and the cavalry wandering around the outside were divided into two groups.

Someone came out to report the news. Jianlu sent the bodies of Qi Jin and a group of Zhejiang generals, and piled them at the forefront of the Sancha Fort defense line on the west bank of the Liaohe River, and the bodies of Qi Zongzhen were also among them.

There was an uproar on the front line, and Ma Cheng was furious: "That's the noise, kill!"

Ni Yuanlu, who came after hearing the training, gasped heavily and said with red eyes: "Huang Taiji, the old thief is too bullying people!"

Ma Cheng waved his hand dejectedly and said, "Forget it, go and transport Qi Shuai's body back and put it in peace."

Ni Yuanlu strode away regardless of her injuries. Ma Cheng thought about it and went to the front line in person. In the Qianli Mile Mile Mile, he watched a large number of Liao people transporting bodies, and used large trucks to transport the bodies of Zhejiang soldiers piled up from Fushun to Liaohe.

On the east bank, cross the river from the shallow water to the west bank. The broken bodies of Zhejiang soldiers were piled up. The Liao people under Jianlu still left their bodies and ran away without looking back. Jianlu did not make any major moves.

Some cavalry were sent to monitor the other side of the river.

There was nothing unusual about Jianlu, so Ni Yuanlu personally led the auxiliary soldiers and civilians to move the bodies of Zhejiang soldiers back.

After moving until noon, thousands of corpses were moved back, and a large number of corpses were still piled up by the river. Ma Cheng couldn't bear to look at them anymore and she cried and said, "Clearn it up, let's all be buried, and erect another monument."

The personal soldiers on both sides were silent, and the Zhejiang army was wiped out under the city of Liaoyang. The Zhejiang army, which was once invincible, was extinct. Most of the generals of Kaiyuan fought side by side with the Zhejiang army, and many people burst into tears. Macheng fell

After a few tears, he closed his door and thanked the guests. He hid in the room and cried for a while before he went to see Qi Jin for the last time.

On the west side of Sanchabao, there is a meadow on the back of the mountains and the water.

The prisoners who were digging graves to bury the bodies of Zhejiang soldiers were all captured by Li Zhengming from the old village of Jiefan. Half of them were men, women, young and old, half of them were Jurchens. They were silently digging pits, fearing that the commander of the Ming army would be angry.

They were asked to bury with them, and finally transported back more than 8,000 Zhejiang soldiers' bodies, including more than 100 generals of all sizes and sizes, all died in battle under the city of Liaoyang. Qi Jin's body was cleaned and replaced with new clothes, but one arm disappeared.

Traces.

Ni Yuanlu held a knife and looked for people to vent her anger. Ma Cheng took a last look at Qi Jin's broken body and buried it. Lu Xiangsheng wrote an epitaph. More than 100 generals' tombstones are speeding up. As for the soldiers, they can only bury them. The weather

The hot corpse was corrupt very quickly, so it could only be dealt with in this way. At this time, Huang Taiji sent someone to send a message, wanting to reply more than 2,000 old, weak, and children on his side. Dajin was willing to exchange one thousand wounded soldiers of Zhejiang Army.

There are several thousand injured and captured by the Wanzhe Army. This is inevitable. You can consider exchanging prisoners.

Ma Cheng hesitated for a moment and said coldly: "If you want to change, you will be sent, and if you don't change, you will be cut."

Huang Taiji's envoy left in a hurry, and Ma Cheng ordered a thorough investigation of the prisoners of Jurchens, among which there must be important figures. Huang Taiji was willing to use one thousand Zhejiang army wounded soldiers to exchange for more than two thousand old and weak. This matter is strange.

Even if half of the wounded soldiers were cured, they were still elite soldiers in a battalion of battles. How could Huang Taiji do such a deal of subsidies? After a check, it was found that one of the prisoners was Beizi, the grandson of Da Beile Daishan.

Lu Xiangsheng and others felt relieved. As a result, the thousands of wounded soldiers of Zhejiang troops were saved.

The resentment in the army was slightly relieved, and Ma Cheng's mood improved greatly. No wonder the old thief had such a mistake. It turned out that he had captured Daishan's grandson. Daishan is now the pillar of Jianlu, and his grandson Huang Taiji dared not to save him.

The old thief agreed very happily, using more than 2,200 wounded soldiers from the Zhejiang Army to exchange for more than 2,500 Jurchens, as well as the precious grandson of the Great Bele Daishan, and also the prisoners.

The waves are calm.

Ma Cheng stood in front of the gate of the camp to welcome the remnants of Zhejiang Army. Looking at the blood-stained faces, he was in a state of excitement.

The soldiers on Kaiyuan on the front line gave up the barracks to place these wounded soldiers. Only then did they find that more than 2,200 wounded soldiers had their middle fingers cut off. This was the plot of the old thief Huang Taiji. A soldier could not pull the bow without his middle fingers.

He was even unable to fire the gun, and he couldn't even hold the knife. This move made the soldiers of Kaiyuan burst into an uproar. The entire Sancha Fort boiled like boiling water, and countless soldiers were about to rush across the Liaohe River with red eyes and fought desperately with Jianlu.

Ma Cheng felt relieved. After the fierce war, nothing is more important than life.

If the middle fingers of these wounded soldiers were not cut off, how could the old thief release people back? More than 2,200 wounded soldiers were the fourth battalion power brigade. The old thief did not worry about losing his mind and would not be released easily. Two,200

Some of the wounded soldiers died one after another, but more than 1,500 people still saved their lives. This was the last little blood of the Zhejiang Army. Macheng organized these 1,500 people into three battalions and handed them over to

Commander Shen Liang, who was also from the Zhejiang Army, stationed in Tieling Guards and was paid according to the first-class main battalion.

He repeatedly instructed Shen Liang to marry and have children for these old soldiers and settle down in Tielingwei as soon as possible.

Shen Liang was grateful for this. Not only did the Zhejiang soldiers not decline, but gradually flourished in Kaiyuan, and many outstanding talents were produced. This is a later story. Huang Taiji regretted it because of this. The Zhejiang soldiers in the third camp claimed that they were death camp and lacked

He couldn't hold the knife with his fingers and couldn't use the bow, so he changed all the powerful crossbows. Every time he went into battle, he regarded himself as a dead person, a truly fierce army of death, and even if he died, he would bite a piece of Jianlu's flesh.

The descendants of these Zhejiang soldiers retained the ferocity of their ancestors, and no one was willing to fight against the Zhejiang soldiers in Kaiyuan Army, and they changed their color when they heard the sound.

To examine the gains and losses, many of Kaiyuan's troops and horses were incomplete in their system.

However, a large number of new recruits have experience in the battlefield, and the military morale has been transformed in the war, and various systems that remain in the theoretical stage have gradually matured. The pension system, the vertical staff command system, the functional authority of the Staff Department, the first, second and third line troops

The divisions gradually became perfect. Such a war tested the people's and the army's morale, and Ma Cheng finally dared to say that he had completely controlled Kaiyuan and had been separating the country from then on.

War is a touchstone, this is Macheng's perception. The heroic expedition has promoted many brave grassroots non-commissioned officers, some talented generals emerged, the basic troops were greatly trained, and many new recruits have become veterans.

This is an effect that cannot be achieved by building a car behind closed doors. The Eastern Expedition also greatly weakened the strength of Jianlu. The Jianlu flag soldiers had suffered heavy casualties. The combat effectiveness of the Wuqi flags fell to a very low level. This is a variety of reasons.

The causes were external factors of the Eastern Expedition and internal factors of the Jianlu’s internal struggle. In a short period of time, the Jianlu was unable to attack.

This Eastern Expedition is worth fighting. War, destroying the country, and pacifying Liaodong are not just about developing technology behind closed doors. An invincible iron army must go through repeated tragic wars to become a arrogant soldier.

General, this is called foundation. Can an army that has never experienced a fierce war sweep the world in the era of cold weapons? That is a joke. After all, the opponent is the old Eight Banners Camp that has been through many battles and has been hard-working. (Unfinished
