In the early morning of the next day, the large armies that had retreated from the side of Constantinople began one after another, and they docked in a series of ports such as Israel and Rhodes to pull the soldiers back of the expeditionary force. &

The incomparably miserable scene, the scarred ship was still stained with blood and traces of flames, the Dafu ship carrying troops was piled up in the harbor in a mess, and thousands of wounded soldiers staggered, supporting each other to walk down from the ship, and the embarrassed appearance was not like a proud Damin army, so that the people and merchants in the port pointed and pointed.

Unprecedented defeat, the government soldiers of more than 100 prefectures in Nantianzhu still have a total of 200,000 people, including the left and right Qianniuwei, the left and right Xiaowei, and the five guards of the left prison, and only about 90,000 people escaped back, especially the right Qianniuwei only came back more than 1,000 people, and the left Qianniuwei was only 3,000.

At that time, there were 130,000 Arab tribal light cavalry, and only more than 10,000 returned, and the Armenian soldiers had been doing miscellaneous work on the seaside, but about 20,000 people had escaped, and the ten Roman legions that Fang had left were now in their early 10,000s, which was all that was left of the more than 400,000 troops who conquered Constantinople.

The casualties of the core forces of this war even exceeded the defeat of Jerusalem in the last time.

Many of the military governments were even completely dead, not a single one returned, and the whole number disappeared into the sands of Constantinople.

This means that in the whole village or the whole neighborhood of Nantianzhu, those women who are looking forward to the return of their husbands or sons, this waiting can only become an eternal wait, and their relatives will never return.

Defeated in Europe, the battlefield is under the control of the enemy, and even the remains cannot be returned, leaving people to mourn only a well-dressed mound.

Many of the sergeants who survived even got off the boat and wept and knelt in the mud of the harbor. The tents that were hurriedly mobilized were set up in a messy manner, and the ambulance team wearing Taoist robes and red gourds printed on their hats and clothes were walking around with medicine boxes, and the men and women were busy with a layer of sweat on their heads.

In the tent, the wounded groaned in pain, the air was filled with the smell of medicine and blood, the smell, and occasionally there was a terrible roar of the wounded in the tent, although Damin had been equipped with Ma Boiling Powder as an anesthetic for surgery, but the failure was too sudden, the materials were too late to assemble, and some of the wounded were still rotting and suppurating at sea, and they had to be operated on as soon as possible, so that the wounded had to bite the wooden sticks and stand hard, and a muffled snort or scream of pain made Li Jie and the eldest grandson who came to inspect the army feel chills down their backs.

What a fiasco!

"Lang Jun, there are still some fine wines and spirits in the palace, send them to the soldiers to drink, although it can't be comparable to the effect of hemp boiling, it is good to relieve the pain of the soldiers a little!"

Listening to the eldest grandson weaving's heart-wrenching instructions, Li Jie naturally had no possibility to do so, and as soon as he nodded in agreement, the eldest grandson weaving hurriedly turned back to find the accompanying eunuch and ordered him, and also mobilized some other materials to come over.

The eldest grandson is becoming more and more like the main palace, seeing that she is busy, Li Jie no longer bothers her, and continues to walk to the depths of this temporary military station under the escort of his entourage.

The main purpose of this trip to Li Jie was to find the chief of the Roman Road march, the commander of the expeditionary force, and Li Ji, the secretary of the military department, who had a lot of grievances before he came, but he entered the tent accompanied by more than a dozen scarred generals. Li Jie's anger has disappeared a lot.

Li Ji, who was lying on the hospital bed, was almost a decade old, and the whole person was old all of a sudden, his body was also scarred, and his beard and hair were still stained with large pieces of blood.

"Your Majesty!"

Li Ji, who was still groggy, almost immediately wanted to sit up when he saw Li Jie's arrival, and sighed, Li Jie hurriedly held his shoulder and persuaded him: "The British Duke doesn't have to get up, just lie down and talk, just lie down and talk!" ”

At this time, Li Ji was full of tears, and whimpered and said: "The old minister deserves to die, I'm sorry Your Majesty, I'm sorry for Damin!" ”

This trip, Li Jie mainly wanted to understand how the Fujian army was defeated, and it can be seen that Li Ji was so excited at this time, for fear that he would die in a hurry, and he could only persuade helplessly.

"Let's talk about this later, your task now is to recuperate, and when you are cured, the widow will ask you to continue to assist the widow, where is the doctor? Boil the Korean ginseng and udon grass brought by the widow to the British public! ”

Commanding loudly, Li Jie persuaded Li Ji again, and was about to stand up and leave, but who knew that old Li Ji was holding on to his sleeve.

"Your Majesty, the old minister wears a sinful body, and a hundred deaths are not enough to repay, he shouldn't be talking, but the words are held back in his psychology, and he is not happy to vomit!"

"This time, this time my biggest mistake is that I don't know my confidant! The whole vision was on the Roman Empire, but I didn't know that on the land of Europe, there were also many countries, and as a result, the Romans didn't know where to move from the barbarians, the Huns and the like attacked the back, and they were defeated! ”

"The old minister begs Your Majesty to postpone the attack on the Romans, repair the armor inside, immigrate, and enrich Asia Minor! Foreign friends and close attacks, provoking internal strife in Europa countries, three years! Just three more years! The whole Roman Empire will be added to your majesty's throne again! ”

As he spoke, as soon as he was excited, Lao Li Ji spurted out a mouthful of blood again, so that Li Jie hurriedly helped him lie down again.

The medical officer outside brought the medicine to calm his sleep, and he didn't close his eyes for two days and two nights, and the old Li Ji was indeed too tired, and after drinking the medicine, he finally fell asleep, Li Jie got up and left, but when he walked to the door, Li Jie sighed and exhaled again.

"It's so underestimating the heroes of the world!"

Before the crossing, Li Jie was a student of archaeology, and he did dabble in Western history, but he only knew that regional powers such as the Eastern Roman Empire and the Arab Empire knew very little, or even not, about the chaotic European small countries.

Li Ji's words really sounded a wake-up call for himself, he has been too proud of the spring breeze recently, and he took everything for granted.

Just when Li Jie was secretly planning his next step, he was unprepared. To the east of the military station, there was another quarrel and commotion, and it seemed that someone was fighting in the camp!

Damin had just been defeated, and at this time, the morale of the army was floating, and a little conflict could cause a big chaos, and his heart was tight, Li Jie called out to the guards Gar Xiangling and the others, and hurriedly walked to the place where the voice was made.

By the time Li Jie arrived, the conflict seemed to be over, but he heard an angry and sharp female voice viciously throw down a sentence: "Don't come back to see me in the future!" I don't have a man like you in Gaoyang!! ”

Under Li Jie's stunned gaze, leading dozens of servants, Gao Yangqiao left the military station angrily with a smile on his face, and a tall man seemed to have been beaten and fell into the chaos of the onlookers.

This time Li Jie came in a hurry, and did not disclose his identity, Gao Yang didn't know that King Min was coming, but this scene still made Li Jie a little annoyed, he felt that he seemed to be too spoiled by this girl, how could he talk to a man who escaped death like this!

Thinking about it, Li Jie hummed and was already squeezing towards the crowd, and a few defeated soldiers who were squeezed out to see the excitement were still reluctant to dry their mouths, but they didn't prevent Gar Xiangling from jumping like thunder and grabbed the collars of several of them, and the forbidden army's waist card lit up, and immediately frightened a few soldiers into not peeing out.

It's hard to imagine that the famous strong man of Damin, the fierce general, and the tall and big man of Fang Yiai will be beaten like this, one left eye is swollen completely, the corners of both mouths are broken, oozing blood, the face is blue and purple, and the two eyes are paralyzed on the ground, and I don't know what to think.

"Get up!"

A hand suddenly stretched out in front of him, and the familiar voice made Fang Yiai stunned for a moment, and then he hurriedly bowed to the ground, kept kowtowing, and said without hesitation: "Meet His Majesty King Min!" Sin will meet His Majesty the King of Min! ”

Listening to Fang Yiai's shout, a few scolding soldiers almost fainted, and the remaining defeated soldiers were also revenant, and hurriedly knelt down, Li Jie shook his head helplessly, stretched out his hand and pulled Fang Yiai up, and pulled him to another direction of the barracks.

…………

Leaving those panicked subordinates behind, dozens of forbidden army guards also followed far behind, as if returning to the days when they were still in Chang'an, walking along the beach of the Buddha Temple, Li Jie also shouted angrily.

"It's lonely who is too spoiled by Gao Yang! You go back to the palace with Gu, and when you go back, I will personally order someone to reprimand her, this time I will let her kneel to welcome you back! Lone abolished her princess title! ”

King Min can say this, he does treat Fang Yiai as a cronie, but after listening to Li Jie's words, Fang Yiai was nervous and shook his head fiercely: "Your Majesty, don't blame Gao Yang, it is the crime that will be worthy of Your Majesty and Damin!" ”

"Win or lose! You are all a general who has come back from a hard fight, and she can't insult a widow's general like this! ”

"Your Majesty, it's the ministers who are guilty! It was the minister who was cowardly, and the minister abandoned the army like a coward, turned around and fled, because the minister had such a defeat! If you want to blame, Your Majesty will kill the minister! ”

Listening to Fang Yiai's hissing roar and kneeling down again, Li Jie couldn't help but be stunned............
