Chapter 907: Battle Damage
"What a vicious battle, what a strong Ming army!"
It was the first time for Yue Tuo to encounter such a vicious battle, and he had more than the feeling of the bloody battle of the Hunhe River that day, but fortunately, this time he was in command, and his reaction was quite accurate and precise, and he did not suffer too much loss, so when he spoke, he couldn't help but be excited. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Boljin led his troops back and stood aside, he was hit in the chest, fortunately he was hit by the handcuff, and it was a little farther away, the bullet did not break through the depths of the armor, only a few pieces of the armor of his iron armor were broken, hearing Yue Tuo's words, Boljin shook his head lightly at the moment.
Shuo Tuo said: "Have the dead and wounded ever been examined? ”
A Meler said sincerely: "The dead and wounded here have been counted, and there are still some corpses in the north that have not been brought back, and they have not been completely counted." ”
Shuo Tuo said impatiently: "Let's talk about it now." ”
"Our army has more than 210 people killed in the battle, including the first formation, and there are less than 100 people who are seriously wounded and easily touched."
"Hmmm......"
Yue Tuo and Shuo Tuo glanced at each other, and both of them felt a little relieved.
Against such a strong enemy, more than 300 people were killed and wounded, which really cannot be said to be a very serious loss.
But Sakhalian said: "How many white armors are there? ”
"Back to Beizi's words," Melle said, swallowing his saliva, "before that, more than 100 people were ordinary vests, and later more than 110 people died in battle, of which more than 80 were white armor. ”
"What?"
Yue Tuo was shocked, and even difficult to accept.
Sakhalian nodded and said, "It is really normal for our army to fight the enemy with white armor, and more than eighty people have been killed in battle. ”
At this time, Boljin said: "My white armor also killed five people, and my armor also killed more than twenty people. ”
Yue Tuo's expression became extremely solemn, and when he looked at the Ming army opposite, he no longer had that relaxed attitude of appreciation, but on the contrary, there was obvious caution and hostility.
Sakhalian suddenly said, "I was thinking that if the enemy cavalry had a more powerful firearm, we would be in even more trouble today. ”
Yue Tuo's heart was troubled, and he was even more displeased when he heard Sakhalian's words, so he waved his hand and motioned for Sakhalian to stop talking.
More than eighty white armor is a serious loss of strength, if it is more than eighty ordinary armor soldiers or flag soldiers, it is very ordinary, but white armor in a three-hundred-ding cattle record is at most a dozen or twenty people, there are some less than two hundred Ding Niu Lu, it may be three or five white armor, each white armor is a precious wealth, two red flags fifty-one Niu Lu, the strength is much stronger than the two white flags, and the number of two blue flag cattle records is only one, and the number of two yellow flags is more different, and the number of elite soldiers is much less than the two yellow flags, The number of white armor in the entire two red flags is less than five hundred, and the white armor of the entire eight banners is only more than two thousand and less than three thousand, the last battle of the thirteen mountains lost a large number of white armor, causing Nuerhachi to be furious, and this time it lost quite a lot of white armor, Yue Tuo was very troubled in his heart.
"I'll go back to the teacher as soon as possible." Yue Tuo grabbed his short stiff lips and beard unhappily, and said, "Today's matter needs to be reported to the Great Khan earlier." ”
"I guess it's someone from Yusheng." Sakhalian was a little unusual today, but he still spoke in good order, and he said: "Their armor is very similar to the heavy infantry we met on the Thirteen Mountains that day, it is both iron armor in front and back, thick and solid, much stronger than the iron armor worn by our white armor. Once this kind of armor is damaged and cannot be repaired, it must be very expensive, there are thousands of cavalry who can be equipped with such iron armor, except for merchants like Yusheng, which Ming military town can be equipped? ”
Shuoto was shocked, "If this is the case, and we have been trading with them, won't we help the thieves to fight us?" ”
Yue Tuo's expression became extremely gloomy, he is a high-level among the rising stars of the Eight Banners, and can participate in many secret affairs, he knows that his Ama Daishan is very opposed to trade with the Han people, and has already proposed to restrict the trade with Yusheng, and Daishan proposed to reduce the Han people on a large scale next year, otherwise, with Liaodong, Liaozhong, and southern Liaonan, there are still no tens of thousands of Eight Banners, what is the use of those millions of Han people, it can't be transformed into strength, it is simply a burden, it is better to reduce the burden of the Dajin Kingdom on a large scale.
For this strategy, Yue Tuo couldn't say who was right and who was wrong, when he talked to Huang Taiji, the eighth uncle was very opposed to the so-called severance of trade and reduction of Ding, but from now on, Yue Tuo felt that his father's method was very right, if this trade continued, and Yusheng didn't know what it would look like.
At this moment, Yue Tuo had deeply felt that the rumors that had been rumored among the Mongols were true, and that He Yusheng had extremely strong force in the steppe, and they had conquered the right wing of the Mongols and extended their tentacles to the left wing.
……
After dark, the cavalry regiment set up camp about twenty miles from the battlefield.
The soldiers were very tired, but the Chinese army still sounded the horn, and the various units set up camp, stuck their spears deep in the grass as horses, and arranged for the various departments to take turns to keep vigil...... It is unlikely that the Jurchens will attack at night, and the distance is far enough, but everyone feels that they can't feel at ease, and they try to make stronger defensive defenses as much as possible.
Duo'er didn't care about resting, he sent two squadrons with torches to the battlefield to collect corpses and treat the seriously wounded soldiers as much as possible, but it was delayed for an afternoon, if it was a minor injury, it would have returned to the brigade a long time ago, and the seriously injured were delayed at this time, and it was unlikely that they would be able to save their lives.
There was a cry in the doctor's tent, and even the strongest man would call at such a time, and those who could endure the pain were very much within the reach of others.
Duo'er went to see the soldiers in the tent, and then stood in front of Wang Jingzhong's bed, silent for a long time.
The military doctor has already clamped out the iron arrow trapped in the flesh, which is a standard flat heavy arrow arrow, which is extremely powerful, but the military doctor said that this kind of arrow is not bad, if it is the kind of triangular sharp head, it will be hopeless.
Wang Jingzhong had several broken ribs, and he was also suffering from a fever, and several military doctors unanimously meant to see if they could survive tonight, and if they could get through it, the hope of surviving would be great.
Resisting the urge to cry, Doll turned around and walked out of the tent with a calm face.
Outside the tent is the remains of the fallen soldiers, everyone is tired tonight, and after retreating tomorrow, a large amount of firewood will be found to burn the bodies of these fallen soldiers, and the ashes will be sent back to Lizhuang.
It's already a habit, and there's nothing wrong with it.
Duo'er stared at Liu Jingrong's corpse and was silent for a long time.
Like Wang Jingzhong, Liu Jingrong is also an old subordinate who has followed Duo'er for many years, everyone was all in the border army at night, Wanli forty-seven years have been under Zhang Han's account, so many years of getting along day and night, sharing honor and disgrace, friendship on the battlefield is the love of mutual trust with life, but today as a senior officer died here, there are still wives and young children at home, Duo'er can't help but blame herself a little, secretly thinking that if she didn't insist on fighting this battle, Liu Jingrong should still be alive at this time.
However, this battle must be fought...... Duo'er is fortunate that due to the complicated situation of the battlefield, the cavalry regiment and the Jurchens did not collide together at the first time, and it got dark very quickly after the fight, otherwise looking at the final situation, the Jurchens have figured out that the fire of the cavalry is not powerful enough, and the power of the cavalry is not large, if a large number of rangers are dispatched to fight, the losses of the cavalry will definitely be much greater than now.
If the Jurchens had chosen to hedge with cavalry at the beginning, they might have suffered a crushing defeat for the cavalry regiment in the end.
Of course, it is impossible for the Houjin side to pay such a small price, and the number of casualties will be far greater than the current result.
This is a temptation, and it is an acceptable outcome for both parties.
"The man who collected the bodies of the fallen has returned." Niu Qinzhong, deputy commander of the regiment, and Li Pingxia, the military and political army, walked over together, both of them with solemn expressions.
Niu Qinzhong said: "There are no seriously injured people alive, our people and the Jurchens also happen to be collecting corpses, and both sides are still restrained and do not fight." The corpses of our army and the corpses of the other side were carried back from each other. ”
"How many soldiers did our army die in this battle?"
"Just counted." Li Pingxia said: "Our army has 431 soldiers killed in the battle, and 57 people are seriously wounded, half of them may not survive tonight, which means that we will at least kill about 450 people, and about 3,400 people will be slightly injured...... This time, it's a big loss! ”
Niu Qinzhong pursed his lips and said: "After the fight, the morale of the army has been shaken, fortunately, it will be dark, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable." ”
In the case of He Yusheng, at least about thirty percent of the casualties can be withheld, and the lancers and chasers can withstand more, Duo'er was greatly dissatisfied after listening to Niu Qinzhong's words, and the fighting spirit and morale of the cavalry regiment were obviously not worthy of the word elite, but at this time Duo'er didn't want to say more, he just nodded solemnly, and said: "We will write the results of the battle report in detail overnight, and send Tangma to go first tomorrow morning, and report it to the adults quickly." ”
"I don't know if I will be punished this time...... Niu Qinzhong's expression was a little panicked, Duo'er looked at some officers around him, everyone's expressions were the same, he didn't want to say more, waved his hand, and told these two to retreat.
……
Shortly after the regiment of cavalry marched to Bahrain, several Tang horses arrived at the city of Geljurgen with Liaoyang's new orders, and soon after the entry of the Houjin Tang horses, more than a hundred and Yu Sheng's troops followed a large caravan into the city.
This royal city of Horqin is completely different from the situation when Zhang Han passed by seven years ago.
At that time, this so-called "city" was just a gathering point for a large group of wooden fences and yurts, and it was the military and political center of the Horqin tribes, and that was it.
The tribes of the northern captives are all poor, and the Horqin tribe was not as rich as the Tumut and Karaqin tribes in the west, and when Zhang Han passed by, he once sighed very much that the so-called royal city was not as good as the slightly larger town on the west side, and it was too far behind.
A few years later, due to the large number of caravans passing through each year, the city was completely different from what it was back and forth.
The size of the city has increased several times, the wooden fences have been significantly strengthened, the yurts have become more numerous, and a large number of houses of earth or masonry have appeared.
The most conspicuous thing is that a very large Buddhist temple was built in the middle of the city, covering an area of dozens of acres, there are hundreds of houses and halls, the top of the palace is lacquered gold, shining in the sun, the golden light is brilliant.
Yang Sisun and part of the regimental headquarters of the 7th Regiment were stationed in this Mongol city, they came to reconnoiter lightly, a while ago it was rumored that Lin Dan Khan was going to raise a large army to come to crusade against the Horqin tribes, the 7th Regiment was stationed in the adjacent places of Karaqin and the Inner Khalkha 5 Divisions, after hearing the information, the defense line was pushed forward more than 100 kilometers, and Yang Sisun went with the trade convoy to the Horqin side to observe the enemy situation.
