Chapter 104 Gains and Losses (Additional update for the hesitant road ahead with ten thousand rewards)
When the sound of the old-fashioned typewriter keyboard sounded in the heads of Hu Biao and others, there was naturally the line of inconspicuous subtitles that appeared at the same time:
"Congratulations to the trainee commander Hu Biao, and congratulations to all those who participated in the trial mission; all the requirements for the second phase of this system mission have been met and officially completed.
The third phase of the mission, which is also the last phase of this mission, will be officially released after it is triggered."
There is not much content in the system subtitles, but after seeing the above paragraph, Hu Biao and the others immediately let go of their last worries.
What followed was a huge sense of fatigue.
But even so, he had to cheer up and continue working; because at this time, they still had too many things to do.
Modern people like them naturally have a very good understanding of the dangers of plague.
You know the season now, it is the hot summer.
Nowadays, there are a large number of corpses from both sides inside and outside the pier. If they are not dealt with quickly, when these corpses rot, it will cause a serious plague.
So even though they were extremely tired, they couldn't keep their eyes open.
Hu Biao and a dozen or so people who could barely be regarded as lightly injured were yawning heavily and wearing makeshift masks made from clothes lapels, dragging their tired bodies to get busy.
They adopted different methods of handling these large numbers of corpses.
Naturally, the Tatar corpses were stripped of their armor, weapons, and hidden silver, and then their heads were chopped off, leaving them to be processed with lime tomorrow.
The heads of these Tatars are very important, not only can they be sold for money, but they can also improve their official rank.
The higher the official rank, the more Ming power can be used.
Of course, Hu Biao did not intend to take it all for himself. After all, it was his subordinates who killed the Tatars. As the top officer in Suifengdun, he could have taken a big share of the credit.
Therefore, he planned to give all the military families who died in the war a first-class reward, which could be exchanged for a generous pension from the court. In addition, privately, he would also compensate their families with 20 taels of silver.
Those who did not die in battle still have a level one and can be promoted and make a fortune.
But in terms of money, it can only be compensated for 10 taels.
Such a sudden decision made the surviving soldiers look at 'Brother Hu Biao' with burning eyes, as if they were ready to die for his brother.
The corpses of the Tatars whose heads had been chopped off were piled together like garbage.
I plan to throw in some wood later, pour a bucket of vegetable oil, and burn it on fire; the Tatars originally cut it down to make large shields, but there is still a lot of wood left for the ladder, but Hu Biao and others are missing.
Work.
The corpses of the soldiers who died in the war were temporarily placed in a room. After sorting out their faces, they would see if their families could be notified tomorrow so that they could be buried as soon as possible.
For the netizens who died in the battle, because Hu Biao and the others really did not have the strength to dig holes and bury them, they could only burn them with fire.
The only difference between them and the Tatars is that they didn't chop off their heads.
In the end, the group of people worked until about two o'clock in the middle of the night. When they didn't even have much energy to speak, they finally finished everything in a hurry.
I didn’t even have time to count the Tatar heads and other trophies captured this time.
After washing up a little and leaving the night watchman behind, the others just fell asleep.
Before Hu Biao went to bed, he gave Yang Dongli a look and asked Yang Dongli to take charge of the night vigil. After seeing this, Lao Yang did not speak, but nodded his chin painfully.
There is no way! What if the Tatars come back again at night? Someone has to stay up late...
*******
At around seven o'clock the next morning, after more than five hours of rest, Hu Biao's pale face finally looked better.
Other surviving netizens are somewhat relieved.
Only Yang Dongli looked more and more depressed; he was sent by Hu Biao to eat quickly, and then squinted for two or three hours.
After eating a meal of shaved noodles for breakfast, Hu Biao continued to lead others to work, finishing yesterday's affairs that were not last night's.
First of all, after everyone took stock, the results of yesterday’s battle were calculated:
They obtained a total of 47 Tatar heads, including 1 Bashiku, 3 Bashkus, 11 white-armored soldiers, 13 vests, 9 infantry, and 10 Yuding.
There are a lot of other armors and weapons. There has been no shortage of these equipment for a long time. On the contrary, Hu Biao and the others were not enough in number, and they did not even think of counting them for a while.
In addition, these Tatars are expected to gain quite a lot after entering the customs.
From the corpses of these people, you can basically find twenty to thirty taels, or even more gold, silver, jewelry and jade.
Therefore, Hu Biao and others, who originally had a cleaner face than Dou, now have more than 900 taels of silver and more than 100 taels of gold, plus some jewelry and jade.
Such a victory was limited to the number of corpses left behind after the Tatars withdrew in a hurry.
In fact, it only accounted for a small half of the number of Tatar casualties; according to the inferences of Hu Biao and others, at least about 120 or 30 Tatars died in this battle.
There are still many seriously injured people who cannot be saved by Tatar medical methods.
In the end, the number of Tatars was at least 2,780, and they were found here in Suifeng Dun. After a little rounding, they were almost equal to one person.
And all in all, how many Niulu are there in total among the Tatars?
The only pity is that most of the corpses of the Tatars were taken away, otherwise they would have obtained more heads and seized more silver, equipment, and supplies.
After this deadly battle, Hu Biao's military merit could only be calculated with 47 heads.
For some others, even after the merit documents were sent, the court would not recognize them.
In fact, it is simple to think about it. The Ming army could even kill good people and take credit for it. If the Tatar heads were not used as a solid proof of military merit, God knows how much credit they would lie about.
I am afraid that by now, the number of Tatars reported to have been killed is enough to wipe out the Tatars more than a dozen times.
In addition, our side's casualty data has now been compiled.
A total of 20 of the 32 heroic military men died, and only 8 of the remaining 10 had all their body organs; of the other two, one had a broken arm and the other was blind.
Hu Biao and other netizens, even if they were wearing double armor and protected by earthen walls, they would still suffer more than half the casualties.
There are 13 people alive today including himself, Lang Qing, Yang Dongli, Xu Feng, AT, Fengrui, Lao She, Singer, Ali, Er Wan, Xu Er, Xiao Xuan Feng and You Pan.
After such a brutal battle, there were actually 13 people left, which seemed like a lot.
But among these people, Ali's right eye and the right side of her face were completely burned. With limited medicine, Fengrui could only apply some Ma Yinglong on her wounds.
Not to mention! Although the taste of this thing is a bit strange.
However, it not only has the effect of reducing swelling and removing blood stasis, it is also ice-cold after being applied, which makes Ali, who is now in a coma, breathe a lot easier.
But even so, this girl has not passed the critical period. No one can tell whether the wound will be seriously infected in the end.
In the last night attack, Erwan only had one arm left.
Except for the above people, everyone else is covered in wounds. Without a week of good food and drink, there is no way to recover...
Secondly, after the battle statistics came out, Xu Feng and Lao She set off in a hurry with one person and two horses.
The two of them carried a report of merit written by Hu Biao himself, and the destination was Loess Fort.
The main reason is that there are only a few defeated soldiers left in Suifeng Dun. If the Tatars come back to attack again, they will be completely defeated.
Therefore, we can only use the temptation of the huge military achievements here to ask Deputy Lin Qianhu and Zhou Baihu to quickly send a group of reinforcements.
Before the two set off, Hu Biao stopped them and gave them some instructions.
The main thing is that the two of them must be extremely careful on the way there; if they notice the movement of the Tatars, they will immediately ride away on horseback and run back to Suifeng Dun.
If no Tatar movement is found, return to Suifeng Dun as soon as possible.
Because of this, the remaining 10 military heroes dared to return to their respective camps; along the way, they notified their families to come and deal with the funeral arrangements as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if we drag it on any longer, these corpses will start to stink...
