Lijiazhuang. A lot of people are gathered together.

"What's going on?" Some people asked curiously.

"The deserters are on trial." An aunt whispered.

"Deserters? Why do you want to be a deserter? The person behind asked puzzled.

"That is, in our village, even those who can be elective soldiers cannot be elected. Why are you still a deserter, isn't it impossible to think about it? The person behind said puzzled.

"But no, there are only ten people in our village, and many of the descendants in our village are powerful, but unfortunately, the Red Turban Army is not allowed to participate. If you participate, you will return the land, and those future generations will be in a hurry. A woman said.

"No, it's all related to marrying a daughter-in-law. There is such a good day, and he actually became a deserter. A lot of people don't understand. In the eyes of many people, they are quite unworthy. But there were people who became deserters. This is very incomprehensible to them.

"Tell me, why did he become a deserter?" The people in the back can't come to the front, so they can only inquire about the news through the words of the people in front, after all, this is big news, and they can tell some of their descendants when they go back.

"I don't know, maybe I'm scared. You didn't see that there are a lot of Red Turban soldiers who died in battle on the side of Valhalla, but think about it, this life is worth it. Fight with the officers and soldiers. In the end, I got so much land, and I heard that those who were able to enter the Valhalla were all second-class merit or above, and there were more than 200 acres of land in this house. Not only that, but also to give a lot of care, if it was put in the past. People like us die and die. The court doesn't care about that. You still have to farm and collect food. It is the rule to pay grain and taxes. The person behind said.

"It's still the benevolence of the Red Turban Army, and they would rather borrow money than raise taxes. It's tough. Such a court should sit in the world. "The people in the back said some bold things, and they weren't afraid anyway. Now that the Red Turbans are in charge of their place, they naturally want to say something good.

"I said the front, let's talk about the back, tell me what's going on?" The people behind shouted loudly, because they really couldn't see or hear.

"Oh. Listen up. This deserter is that, it doesn't say above, it seems to take care of the reputation of that village. At the same time, in order to take care of the names of the people, the executions were not made in public. We can't remember the name, anyway, this person, now regrets it. When I first went to the battlefield, I was used to running. They thought that if they were in a war, they could run away. As a result, a lot of damage was done. Now regret it. The man in front shouted.

"Hmph, I regret it now. Why did you go earlier? Don't say anything you regret, just do what you have to do. The people behind said the same thing. In their opinion, deserters are shameful.

"However, the Red Turban Army is benevolent and righteous, takes care of the needs of the other party's dignity, does not execute the other party in public, and finds a remote place to shoot them." The person in front said.

"What? Not public. What does that mean? Hey, the previous explanation is what a shooting is. The person behind him asked loudly. Their concerns are very different, because the killing of heads is rare, and many people have seen it after a long time in the county, after all, this kind of thing is not common.

"It's a secret execution, not public, not for us to see." The person in front said.

"Oh, what does this mean, no, we have to follow quietly to see. But what's going on with this shooting? The people behind asked, although some people already knew that the most powerful weapon of the Red Turban Army was the musket. But there are still some people who have never seen it, and they have never seen a firearm kill people. So, it's still a big place of interest for them.

"It's the meaning of killing the head, but with a musket, this musket can knock a person's head away. Faster than a head-killing. That bloody look, oops. Sounds like it's ready to shoot. The person in front said with interest.

"We'll have to see. This has to be seen. A lot of people say that. It's a pity that they can't look down on it, because the killer chooses to be in the barracks, and the people who perform the task are some veterans, and they hate these deserters, because the dead are good comrades-in-arms, and they are responsible, and the deserters are evading their responsibilities. For these people are hated. Of course. There are also those who regret that they should not have been deserters, not only to discredit their village. It's contemptible. At the same time, they also discredit themselves, and they all regret it, but it's a pity that they have done it. There is no place to regret. They can only accept such an outcome.

For deserters, they are all severely punished. Of course, the number of executions was not very large. More than 800 deserters and more than 700 were in confinement. Among the records of the military register. Make some financial penalties, such as reducing the remuneration package, recovering some land bonds, etc. More than a dozen others were sentenced to hard labour. They had to dig coal for a long time in the mines, and this time was eight years. Only five people were executed, because they led to a large part of the breakdown. Morale is unfavorable. This punishment is already very light. But the impact is still very large, and many soldiers say that they are reluctant to become deserters, because being a deserter is shameful and difficult to raise their heads. They all know what they are going to pay, so the best thing they can do is to take their orders. Execute their orders.

Valhalla. Veterans of the 1st Infantry Brigade, 3rd Infantry Brigade. There are also independent brigades, some veterans of the 4th Infantry Brigade who come here to pay tribute to their fallen comrades. The atmosphere here is depressing, after all, many of the dead were once around them, but now, the situation cannot be reversed.

"More than 7,000 people died in this battle. The 4th Infantry Brigade has the most of them. And then there was the separate brigade. Jia Xu made some reports on Shangwu.

Perhaps because of the relationship between the dead, in such a situation, some comrades-in-arms kept burning paper money in order to express their grief, after all, they were short of money to spend during their lifetimes, and many people left before they had time to enjoy their happiness.

"Hmm. Wounded soldiers, are they all okay? "Shangwu was very reluctant to come here, but he had to come. The war is not completely over, and I don't know how many undead cards will be added after the war is over. Shang Wu looked at the dense spiritual position, and his mood was very heavy.

"Thankfully, we have a field hospital that has saved a lot of people. Of course. Among these people, there are also some officers and soldiers, and the losses of officers and soldiers are also more than 10,000 people, and there are still some corpses that have not been disposed of in time. But we'll take care of these things as soon as possible. Jia Xu said.

"Hmm. It is best to be able to deal with it as soon as possible, pay attention to prevent a large-scale outbreak of the plague, field hospitals should be rewarded, they are also people with military merits, not only them, but also those who are alive, and they should be given military merit medals. Field hospitals, convoys, soldiers on the front line are also to be issued. Shang Wu said.

"Hmm. These have already been done. Military merit medals have already been issued for some units. Some are being evaluated and investigated, but they will be sent down soon. Jia Xu said.

"Hmm. I just hope that these spiritual positions will not be increased. With each additional person, we have one less good fighter, and to be honest, there are many people I don't know, but we seem to know each other. This kind of taste is very pleasant. Shang Wu said. The area of the tomb behind Valhalla. A mother and son looked at the stele and were silent. There was a big man sitting in front of him, crying worse than a child.

"Zhang Gouzi, I don't know what you like, wine is good wine. I changed it from the hospital. I got two good pairs of boots in exchange, damn it, it's a good thing. Lao Tzu, no. I didn't even want to take a sip. You taste it. Pei Yuanshao poured out a small bottle. Then sprinkle it in front of the stone tablet. The first group of fallen were wooden plaques, which were difficult to preserve, and Shangwu asked to replace them with stone tablets. They will always remember them. These are good soldiers who died for them.

"How?" Pei Yuanshao asked with a smile. But he cried. has a simple face, but it is very annoying.

"Damn it. This is a good thing, but I begged my grandfather and sued my grandmother. I almost went to rob it. Lao Tzu will not steal. It's a good thing, and you can't change it no matter how many people change it. I almost got down on my knees. I told people that I have a comrade-in-arms for our Red Turban Army. That's it. That's when I was given a little bit. Good stuff. I didn't have a chance to taste it. It's all up to you. Enough to me. The other party said.

"And this, this is dumpling soup, and it's also our victory soup. Fuck. This is better than ours. The New Army of Xiyuan relied on this to defeat them, and many people surrendered. It's true. Unfortunately, our situation is not very good. A lot of things don't work well. Otherwise. Never mind. Pei Yuanshao cried and said.

"Our army has expanded. Became an independent brigade. The number of combatants has risen a lot, and we now have two regiments. Armament is also good. We're the main force. If you're here, damn it, I'll let you be a battalion commander. Pei Yuanshao said and sprinkled a glass of wine in front of the stone stele. The mother and son were silently in tears.

War is brutal. There are casualties, but war is more about who can have such perseverance.

2nd Infantry Brigade. Today, the 2nd Infantry Brigade is being reorganized into the 2nd Infantry Division, and it is the only 20,000-strong super large infantry division unit among the four infantry divisions, of course. They have not yet announced such a result, they could reach more than 47,000 people at their peak, and their weapons and equipment have also risen to a great level, so it can be said that their combat effectiveness has risen very much.

But the 2nd Infantry Brigade did not take part in decent battles. They are still looked down upon by the 1st and 3rd brigades. Therefore, this encirclement, the battle against Huangfu Song, became their most conspicuous battle.

"It is said that our Second Infantry Brigade is an infantry brigade that avoids reality and fiction, which shows that our infantry brigade is very active in fighting. The fight is very imposing. Chen Dajia said.

"The Huangfu Songbei Army on the other side, there is nothing to be afraid of, we have eaten well and drunk enough these days. Wait a few days, let's clean up the old boy of Huangfu Song, don't look at the Northern Army these days, they are jumping quite high, but after a few days, they can't eat enough, we can still eat enough, and we can clean them up at once. Chen Dajia smiled and said something to his company soldiers to boost morale. The Second Infantry Brigade was supplemented by a particularly large number of soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, and the previous more than 40,000 people, all of whom were scattered to other units. For example, the first, third, and independent brigades went up. And the rest are all fighters with strong combat effectiveness who have been supplemented to them, which is the time when the Second Infantry Brigade is their strongest, if they can't fight a decent battle at this time. That's just too much to say. It's just themselves, they don't want to go.

"Sir, we have been defeated by the Northern Army, and we always feel that we can't beat them." One soldier said worriedly.

"Hehe, have you ever fought?" Chen Dajia asked.

"I've fought, but I've been defeated." Some soldiers said so.

"This battle is like a fight, why did you lose? This is because your bodies are not as strong as each other's. Don't look at the officers and soldiers, there are few of them, but they have good food, good weapons and equipment, and training is specifically for this, but what is our situation? We don't eat well, you look at them one by one, they are very thin. If you fight like this, you will definitely lose. However, let's not fight him. And they played with them. For example, they are numerous, besiege them, don't talk to him, don't let him come out, let's eat and drink enough. Although the other party is not as good as the other party physically, we can starve each other and have no strength, the other party eats well and consumes a lot of food, and in the end the hunger is really unbearable. Fight with us. Think about it, the other party can't eat enough, and he is not hungry and dizzy. If you don't beat each other like this, damn it. Lao Tzu, there is nothing to say. Chen Dajia said.

"Haha." The soldiers were laughed at by such a simple truth. Although the reason is very simple, however, it gives them a great peace of mind. Let them have a certain confidence to fight with the officers and soldiers.

"Actually, this Northern Army, there is nothing to fear, you have a head on your shoulders, and the Northern Army is also a one, and our weapons are much more advanced. His grandmother's. Before he could rush over, he was defeated. We can still lose. Speaking of a battle, we must have won. Chen Dajia said.

"Sir. Is this true? One soldier asked.

"If you don't believe it, wait until you go to the battlefield, look at the Northern Army on the other side, be beaten, and see if they hurt." Chen Dajia said.

"They'll cry and cry for their mother." Chen Dajia said.
