Chapter 429

In this battle, Cheng Dalei did win, and it can even be said to be a complete victory.

Through this battle, he has a judgment on the combat effectiveness of the five teams, at least it proves that the three-year training is not useless. And also took this opportunity to test the combat effectiveness of the Liangzhou soldiers: not weak, but not strong.

But in battle, there is no immortal.

They also paid with their own lives, and many of their brothers died on the battlefield. Sacrifice is inevitable, and when a new recruit first enters the battle, he may not even be able to hold his weapon tightly. Today, victory was achieved with small casualties thanks to ordinary training.

Just now I cleaned up the battlefield and snatched the spoils of war, and at the same time, I also collected the corpses of my dead brothers.

For example, Qin Man, Guan Yu and others don't take these things very seriously, in this troubled era, human life is not as expensive as Cheng Dalei imagined, and as a general, treating human life as a number is a necessary quality.

However, Cheng Dalei does not have this quality.

He has been reminding himself to hone his heart harder, if he wants to live in this troubled world, live well, weakness will not work, he must be hard. It is harder than this troubled time, so as not to be crushed by the wheels of the troubled times.

When Cheng Dalei was still on his way back to Toad City, Lu Luo had already fled back to Liangzhou City with the remnants of his defeated army.

Although he is a civil official, Lu Luo has the heart of a military general. This time, Gao Feihu swaggered and took people through Liangzhou, and it was impossible for Lu Luo to ignore it. If you manage it, you must manage it thoroughly, and wipe out the other party in Liangzhou.

Song Bokang took people to Chang'an, leaving Lu Luo to manage Liangzhou City, and he grabbed the military and political power. I also want to take advantage of this incident to show my face once.

As a result, he didn't show his face, but fell into the mud and fell to the ground.

"Lord Lu!" the clerk came over to report: "Lord Song is back." ”

"Ahh I just lost the battle today, and I was still thinking about how to use the Spring and Autumn Brushwork to cover up this matter, why did Song Bokang come back at this time.

There was no way, Lu Luo had no choice but to go to see Song Bokang. As soon as he walked into the hall, he put on a face, and said with an aggrieved face: "Lord Song, you can be regarded as back, that Cheng Dalei is really too deceitful!"

"Shut up!"

Song Bokang's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he already knew what was going on. How could he not have known that as soon as he returned, someone had reported to him about the battle. The city of Liangzhou suffered serious losses, and after this battle, Liangzhou's vitality was greatly damaged.

"I told you before I left, let you hold on to the city and not move troops easily, why did you disobey my orders?" Song Bokang said coldly.

"My lord......" Lu Luo's head hung down: "There is a team passing through my Liangzhou, I'm afraid that they don't have bad intentions, and I can't let them swagger over......"

The more Lu Luo spoke, the lower his voice became, and then gradually disappeared.

Song Bokang glanced at him and didn't say anything. Of course he understood what Lu Luo was thinking, if he didn't even understand what his subordinates were thinking, then wouldn't he become a waste like Li Xingya. But he can't do anything about Lu Luo, after all, behind him is the Lu family in Jiangnan, and if he moves, he just won't give the Lu family face. Of course, after this incident, even if Lu Luo's political life is over, this is the heaviest punishment for him.

"You...... Do it yourself. Song Bokang sighed.

Seeing that Song Bokang didn't say anything more, Lu Luo also breathed a sigh of relief, and he asked tentatively: "My lord, why did you come back, could it be that the situation in Chang'an has changed again?"

"Well, something has changed. Song Bokang said: "I came this time to escort some grain and grass into Beijing, and also to see the situation in Liangzhou, hmph, I didn't expect you to cause this kind of thing." ”

Lu Luo didn't dare to answer, after all, he was reckless in this incident. He waited for a while, and asked tentatively, "What's going on over there in Chang'an?"

The night was silent, and a dim candle was lit in the hall, and the two lowered their voices and began to talk in secret.

......

After a day and night of traveling, Cheng Dalei's troops returned to Toad City. When I walked into Toad City, I looked at the majestic city pass in front of me, and my mouth couldn't be closed for a while.

The walls were towering, and there were patrolling soldiers back and forth. Everyone has a straight waist and round cheeks, which at least shows that it is not a problem to eat well in Toad City. And in today's empire, it is extremely difficult to eat a full meal every day.

It seems that the big boss is here, and he is very wealthy!

The streets in the city are very clean, the houses are neatly arranged, and Gao Feihu is no longer Wuxia Ameng. He could feel a sense of anger from the streets, the buildings, the pride on everyone's faces.

It's a thriving place.

"Boss, are you doing a good job here?"

Cheng Dalei yawned: "Eat first, then sleep, and talk about other things when you wake up." ”

Running all the way, another tough battle, in fact, everyone is exhausted. Fighting a war is really not a human job.

Liu Bei, who stayed behind in the cottage, has led people to treat the wounded, dispose of the remains of the brothers, and give certain bereavement to the families of the casualties. Someone made a big contribution to this battle, and the family was jubilant. There are also people whose parents and brothers died on the battlefield, and the misfortune of several families ensued.

But in this troubled world, this misfortune is unavoidable.

It was not a simple matter for He Shen to arrange for Gao Feihu's subordinates to live in the military camp, and for the elderly, weak, women and children to live in the houses, and at the same time to arrange these people. And what they need most now is food and a good night's sleep.

As for Cheng Dalei himself, he returned to the City Lord's Mansion, and after eating something briefly, he also fell asleep.

He slept until dawn the next day, when Cheng Dalei woke up from the bed in a daze and heard a commotion on the street outside.

He got out of bed and walked out of the city lord's mansion to see the streets crowded with people singing and dancing.

Some people drank heavily and fell drunk on the streets, while others stood on high platforms and sang loudly untuned dittiques. More people got together and bragged about how many more people they killed in the battle and how much reward they could receive. But at the same time, some people drank without saying a word, and their eyes were red.

Cheng Dalei immediately understood what they were doing, this was a feast to celebrate victory. Almost every time they won a battle, they would get together to drink and have fun, to vent their fears, and some used alcohol to remember their fallen brothers.

As soon as Cheng Dalei came out, he was immediately surrounded by people, and a group of people led by Gao Feibao blocked him and asked him to drink. Cheng Dalei picked up a bend of wine and drank it all, and then hurriedly looked for a chance to get out.

These fools are all masters who have no wine and no joy, if Cheng Dalei doesn't leave, he will have to be poured into a pile of mud by them.
