Chapter 44 There are no innocents on the battlefield
When Wang Shao woke up again, he was already lying in a white tent, and his whole body was tightly wrapped in white linen. The military doctor who always looked at the dead took a long breath and said: "Just wake up.
, I can’t die!”
"Laiyuan Village is lost!" Wang Shao said with half certainty and half doubt.
"Lost it, the whole army was wiped out..." the dead-faced doctor said calmly.
Wang Shao groaned, turned his head, and stared blankly at the white curtain. After a while, he whispered in a low voice: "That fellow countryman of yours is dead. I saw his head fell off."
The dead-faced doctor was still expressionless, pointing to a skeleton on the desk and saying: "I know, his head was picked up, I peeled off all the skin and flesh and made a skeleton, so that I can know the person's
What does the skull look like?"
Wang Shao's breathing became rapid. He wanted to take out a knife and stab the animal to death. The doctor with a dead face said again: "Your lungs are injured. It's best not to get angry. The mouse Cui has already killed his head."
He lost to me. This was discussed long ago. He said that after he dies, I can use his body as a prop. Now I only picked up a human head. Alas, it is a pity..."
Wang Shao no longer wanted to talk to such a person anymore. He pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the noise outside. It was very strange. Logically speaking, it should be the most intense time of the war. The sounds of fighting and explosions should be heard constantly. Here
Why are there birdsong?
"This is where?"
"On the back mountain of Xiaoluomen Village, after Laiyuan Village was lost, there were no guards on the side of Dingyuan Village. The governor has ordered the soldiers of Dingyuan Village to withdraw to Qin Wangchuan Village. You were seriously injured and were sent to Xiaoluomen.
Recuperate in the village, and when your injury gets better, you will be sent to Chencang, where the medical conditions are better."
After hearing what the dead-faced doctor said, Wang Shao was not surprised. As early as when he established the mountain stronghold, he knew that Dingyuan Stronghold and Laiyuan Stronghold were two closely interdependent military strongholds. They can exert their greatest advantage when they are interdependent. Once one of them is captured,
If it is breached, the other one will not be able to survive at all. It is a helpless move for Fu Zun to evacuate Dingyuan Village.
"King Qin's Chuanzhai is not a very good place to guard. It is estimated that your palace master will not be able to defend it for long. If you are in better spirits, we will evacuate Xiaoluomen Village as soon as possible..."
Wang Shao endured the waves of dizziness and said with difficulty: "We swore to die in battle here!"
The doctor turned around and covered Wang Shao with a blanket, and said expressionlessly: "You have already tested whether the fraud is hidden or not. There is no need to fight to the death here. Our commander is here, and your life has been saved."
After saying this, he walked out of the tent, leaving Wang Shao alone and gritting his teeth.
Zhang Jiang's chest was filled with grief and indignation. When the tattered Zhang Wenxian was sent back, he personally killed two of Zhang Wenxian's soldiers with a knife. The heroic young man even laughed and said in the morning that he couldn't bear to eat.
He planned to get some rations for the Song army to eat human flesh, but when he was sent back in the afternoon, he was already on the verge of death. Zhang Jiang opened the linen and took a look at Zhang Wenxian's leg, and saw white bones piercing the flesh and skin.
Outside, he knew that Zhang Wenxian's legs could no longer be saved. He felt that the world was spinning. The best junior of the next generation of the Zhang family had been destroyed in Qinwangchuan.
Unexpectedly, Wu Zangying came to Zhang Jiang's military tent. Looking at Zhang Wenxian who was only breathing, he said to Zhang Jiang: "Just saw off his legs. This can save his life. The good men of Daxia are becoming more and more popular."
The less."
Zhang Jiang said with a sullen face: "Without his legs, what kind of man is he?"
Wu Zangying Pang chuckled and said: "Anyone with two ounces of meat missing from his crotch is not a man. Zhang Wenxian has already shown everyone his manly courage. Who dares to say that he is not a man?"
Zhang Jiang, my little daughter is twelve years old this year, how about marrying Zhang Wenxian? As an uncle, you should be able to make the decision, right?"
Zhang Jiang took a deep breath and said: "Zhang Wenxian is already married, and the child is two years old."
Pang smiled and said, "Just kill his wife. You can raise Zhang Wenxian's son as your grandson!" After saying that, he opened the tent and walked out. He knew that Zhang Jiang should be very happy at this time. As for Zhang Wenxian, use
Don't ask for his opinion.
Wu Zangpang frowned and looked at the destroyed Laiyuan Village and Dingyuan Village without any joy on his face. Those Xixia soldiers standing on the wall cheering could not let go of his frown.
.
This victory was such a surprise…
The damage to the Kazan tribe was not great. This battle gave the Kazan tribe a great honor. Xixia has always been a country that worships the strong. The tribe that was destined to perish had such a victory, which was enough for them.
Escaped the purge of the royal family.
There was a smell of burning flesh in the tent, and Zhang Wenxian's weak screams came out. Without asking, you knew that this was Zhang Jiang who ordered people to cut off Zhang Wenxian's injured leg with a giant ax and then roasted it with a red-hot iron.
The wound was not hidden, and Pang sighed secretly. He only hoped that Zhang Wenxian could survive well. Only in this way could he skillfully place the credit for capturing Laiyuan Village on Zhang Wenxian's head, instead of giving it to the stubborn Ka
Mountain redundancy.
On the battlefield, a single move can affect the whole body. As long as an accident occurs, whether it is a good accident or a bad accident, all the dominoes that have been set will be knocked down.
After capturing the two military strongholds of Laiyuan and Dingyuan, which caused the Xixia army to lose troops and generals, no matter what Fu Zangpang thought, he had no choice but to continue fighting this battle, otherwise, there would be internal strife in the army, and countless soldiers and horses died.
Tribal leaders will not allow their troops to retreat when victory is in sight. This is the disadvantage of leading a mixed army to the battlefield.
Tomorrow, the real siege battle will begin in full swing. Wu Zangpang punched a wooden stake heavily and made up his mind.
Zhang Jiang sat on the bedside of Zhang Wenxian, looking at the nephew for whom she had placed infinite high hopes, lying there with a sallow face and a lifeless face. She thought a lot, gritted her teeth, took out a token from her arms and said to her own soldier.
: "Take my token and rush back to Xiliang Mansion immediately to execute Wu. Do it neatly and don't let her suffer."
The soldier took the token and left in a hurry. Zhang Jiang looked back at his nephew and whispered: "Uncle knows that you like Wu, and also knows that Wu is a qualified wife. Uncle promised your dead father
I will definitely take good care of you. The ending like this is not what my uncle wants to see. If your legs are okay, you are a good man and don’t need a husband to pay for your wife. You will fight for the glory you deserve. Now.
, your legs are broken, you can't ride a horse, you can't fight, if you want to live a stable and wealthy life, this is the only way to go...
Wu Zangyao Pang regards his youngest daughter as the apple of his eye, and marrying you will be very beneficial to the stability of the Zhang family in Daxia, Wu Zangyao Pang made an offer that we simply cannot refuse."
Looking at the string of tears falling from the corners of Zhang Wenxian's eyes, Zhang Jiang was in a state of confusion!
Fu Bi was equally distraught. His good situation was overturned in an instant. Such drastic changes made him unable to accept it at all. He roared at Jia Kui: "What on earth is going on?"
However, after shouting this voice, Fu Bi vented a lot of the depression in his chest. He sat on the chair with trembling hands and waved his hands and said: "If God wants to kill me, it is not a crime of war!"
All the officials and generals in the big tent were uneasy. After exchanging glances, they all looked at Jia Kui and motioned for him to step in to calm down the atmosphere. Such a thing was beyond everyone's expectation, including Shi Danai.
A strong general must strive to be the first in every battle. What happened to Laiyuan Village happened after Shi Danai died in the battle. If the responsibility for the defeat is passed on to Shi Danai, no one will be able to open his mouth. Who can guarantee that he will be on the battlefield?
Can it be safe? This is a war, not a game.
Jia Kui didn't look at his colleagues, but raised his head and stared at the top of the military tent without saying a word. It was so damn depressing that the battle was going like this.
Fu Bi cheered up, sat up straight and said in a deep voice: "Yun Zheng's letter asked us to hold on for forty days no matter what. Now twenty-eight days have passed. You must fight the enemy bravely. As long as you survive forty days
, Yun Shuai's army will arrive. If there is no hidden truth, Pang Division's old soldiers will definitely be defeated by Wang Division when they are exhausted."
Jia Kui shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, you can't say that. It's fine that we know Commander Yun's plan, but we can't tell it to the other armies. If we persist for forty days and Commander Yun's army still hasn't arrived, our military morale will be compromised."
If it is defeated, the tragedy of Haoshuichuan will happen again.
At the end of that year, the general was still just a military prince under the command of Shenzhi Zhengshi. Although Li Yuanhao attacked us unexpectedly, our main formation was still there. General Ren Fu fought desperately and the war became a stalemate.
If political affairs retreat, no matter what, more than 8,000 people will not die on the battlefield, and those who participate in political affairs will not lament and regret all day long."
Fu Bi laughed, knocked on the table and said: "I have no intention of leaving Qinwangchuan. Your Majesty ordered me to fight and die in Qinwangchuan. If you want me to die, I have to die, so this is my cemetery. I just hope that Yun Zheng can be here on time."
Come and bring back these soldiers who have been fighting fiercely for half a year, so that even if I die in battle, I will still have a smile on my face."
Jia Kui added: "My Lord, I have learned from you that I have absolutely no intention of forcing your Lord to fight to the death. It's just that I discovered a strange phenomenon during these days of fighting. I found that the Xixia people were not aggressive in attacking, except for the first one."
For a few days, Zhang Jiang's army launched a crazy attack, but the tribes who participated in the attack later seemed to be ineffective.
The general thought that this was definitely not in line with Wu Zang's current situation. His army consumed a large amount of food and grass every day, and food and grass were his most scarce supplies. Under such circumstances, a thunderous attack was suitable for him.
The current situation is very strange. The Xixia people who attacked from behind seemed more like they came to die than to fight." (To be continued)
