Chapter seven hundred and sixty the gap between the wars

If it were a day ago, how to deal with these 1,200 prisoners, Yang Jin, deputy general of Ji Town, would not ask for instructions, but after this battle, his attitude was naturally different.

Wang Tong glanced over there, and driven by the soldiers in Jizhen, dejected prisoners were driven into a circle. Wang Tong pondered for a while and said, "Those who cannot move or those who are seriously injured will not be kept. The rest will be wrapped around on the spot and will be used tomorrow*..."

Yang Jin was a little confused about what Wang Tong said, "You can *...", but he still bowed to take the order, got up and hesitated, and asked again: "Master, there are still three days to get the food and grass, and in the next few days*..."

"Of course, we will let the soldiers eat enough. If they don't eat enough, how can we take the strength to fight? Today, the dead horses and injured horses on the battlefield, as well as the remaining cattle and sheep, are all slaughtered, which is also a reward.

The food and grass are about to be exhausted, and we should live within our means, but Wang Tong didn't care at all. Yang Jin looked back at the naturalized city that was blurred in the night. He was still nervous, but he stopped talking.

Before dark, the soldiers were exhausted and set off the camp. The lights at the top of the city could be seen clearly in the camp. Moreover, the Tartars could also call the army out of the city, but everyone was not afraid or worried, but they were full of ambition.

The aroma of broth spreads throughout the camp, except for the soldiers on duty, the rest of the people sat around in front of the big pot, enjoying the warmth and the upcoming meat.

There was a burst of laughter and joy. There was only a faint sky light in the sky. The sky was about to get dark. When the sound of hooves outside, many people subconsciously grabbed the weapon.

But he immediately relaxed and the guarded soldiers shouted, "The brothers of the horse team are back!!" The soldiers in front of the camp moved the cart away and let the cavalry of the horse team enter. The soldiers who were waiting for dinner stood up and cheered loudly there.

Today's battle has always been on the front line, and the most heroic battle is the cavalry. Although the Huwei Army fought wonderfully, it was only in the middle of the attack, and the cavalrymen were fighting from beginning to end.

"...Good!!", "Man!!", cheers were mixed with all kinds of praise from the bottom of my heart, and each cavalry looked red and felt extremely radiant. When the cavalry arrived in their area, they all dismounted and went to eat after receiving the order.

It is so close to the enemy's base camp, except for being more relaxed when eating. "The Ming army is still in a state of tension, and naturally lie down in clothes at night, with weapons at hand. The power of guarding at night is twice as strong as when marching, and everyone can get up to fight at any time.

The same is true for the cavalry. They rest with the horses and feed them in the middle of the night. "If there is any movement, they will be ready to go out to fight.

Ma Sanbiao, Zhang Lei and Ma Yong, the three main and deputy generals of the cavalry, were called to a camp by Wang Tong's personal soldiers, which was where the Ming army treated the wounded.

Unlike the laughter outside, the atmosphere here is much heavier. In this era, on such a battlefield, the minor wounded can be bandaged, and the serious wounded can only wait to die.

Wang Tong was waiting outside the camp. After Ma Sanbiao and others dismounted, Wang Tong asked, "How did the Tartar Tang react?"

"The city gate is closed" did not dare to do anything. My subordinates shouted and humiliated according to the command of the commander. There were several local cannons in the city, but they couldn't hit us. My subordinates ran around the city and came back now!" Wang Tong nodded and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that there were artillery on the Tartars, but they didn't use it in war. I really don't know what their minds are thinking."

"Master, my subordinates know some reasons. The copper and iron used for a cannon are thousands of kilograms. "The Tartars lack iron. If there is such iron material, it can arm more soldiers. Moreover, for so many years of battle, the artillery of the Ming Dynasty is useless to them." So I don't pay much attention to it. I guess the cannons on the top of the city may have been sent by merchants to please the Tartars." Zhang Lei, the president of the horse team in Ji Town, replied that Ji Town does not need to know the situation on the grassland. Wang Tong's system is poor, and military knowledge may be more.

Deputy General Yang Jin, several generals of the camp, and several generals of the Huwei Army rushed over and everyone walked into the camp.

A person with a hundred-family appearance greeted him respectfully and greeted everyone first. Wang Tong asked bluntly: "Have you done everything you asked to do?" "Report to the Grand Marshal, the bandages are soaked in boiling water before they are used, and the wounds are washed with salt water and soy wine before they are wrapped." Wang Tong nodded, and he felt uncomfortable when he saw his warrior being injured and could not be treated. Wang Tong had some impression of these methods, but if he could improve it, he would always improve it.

Yang Jin and others didn't understand this at all, so they just followed it and asked along the way, and the hundred households also answered Xun.

The entire camp was nothing more than bandaged and taken care of seriously injured people who were inactive. Not many people were moaning in pain, and not many people were lying there waiting to die.

This is naturally not how excellent the Ming army's protection is. It's okay to say that the Huwei Army is, and there are many casualties and injuries on the cavalry and Jizhen positions. If there is no hope of living or it is too painful, the colleagues will harden their hearts to give them a pleasure. The wounded will not resent, but will say thank you.

Most of the seriously injured people in the camp were broken after the stone bomb was shot into the vehicle array. Although they were disabled in the future, there was no problem in survival.

"Master, 751 injured in the camp, 600 minor injuries and 151 serious injuries."

Hearing this report, Wang Tong nodded and asked, "How many people died in Jizhen? Where are Datong?"

The infantry and soldiers on the Huwei Army were only thirty, and the cavalry were only 100 times. Wang Tong didn't mention it and asked directly. When he heard Wang Tong's inquiry, Yang Jin looked heartbroken on his face and bowed and replied: "Most of them are really ashamed to die in battle!"

Wang Tong shook his head. The catapult stone bomb was powerful, but because of this stone bomb, there would not be too many people killed. The real dead people should have died in battle with the Tartar cavalry. This is the big head. This is the most elite force in Ji Town. No wonder Yang Jin had such a look.

"How can there be no one who dies in war? As long as the enemy dies more than we do."

Wang Tong comforted him, and Ma Yong said that more than 200 cavalrymen in Datong died in battle, which is estimated. Although the horse team led the way, they were very mobile, with many pursuits and restrained, and the time for hand-to-hand combat was very short, and there were not many casualties.

The wounded in the camp were very moved when they saw Wang Tong and other generals coming over. Wang Tong often went up to ask a few words to comfort and praise him. On weekdays, there was no intersection between the generals of the army and the soldiers below. There was no difference between heaven and earth. Wang Tong was an imperial envoy and the generals of the army, but he was so approachable that these soldiers were both frightened and grateful.

After walking around, Wang Tong did not leave immediately, but someone brought a big cart. He walked into the car and said loudly: "Everyone, you are fighting for the Ming Dynasty and being injured in blood for the Ming Dynasty. You are extremely glorious!! I have saluted you!!"

After saying that, Wang Tong bowed to all directions in the car. Seeing Wang Tong like this, Yang Jin and others were surprised, but they also bowed down.

There was a commotion in the camp. The lightly wounded and the seriously injured lying on the bed did not know what to do, nor did anyone take the lead and kneel down directly. Everyone was grateful and someone shouted: "The young ones killed the enemy for the country. These are all duty. You can't be treated as the charity of the general commander, and you will be killed by the young ones!"

This person is very eloquent, and he should be a character like a soldier. Wang Tong was still very good at bowing. He stood up and said again: "Don't worry if he is injured. If the minor injury is healed, continue to kill the enemy. Remember the credit for you. If the serious injury cannot be killed, you don't worry if the Ming Dynasty supports you for the rest of your life..."

Before he could finish this, a huge cheer broke out among the boatman. Wang Tong paused and said loudly: "You are glorious, and your little one will share your glory!!!"

The cheers were even louder, and everyone could understand the meaning of Wang's call. There was no need to worry about the merits and offerings of the wounded, and it could also bring benefits to the family.

Needless to say, the soldiers of the Huwei Army have been serving in the army for a long time. I have seen such a good thing before, and I have doubts in my heart, and I suspect that Wang Tong had issued a blank check, but this young imperial envoy was too magical.

Who can fight such a battle? If the side that is mainly infantry and the main force of cavalry can defeat the side that is large and powerful, who can believe that the generals of this commander have done it, and the promises he has made just now also make people believe that he can do it.

After the wounded condolences, Wang Tong and his generals left. When they walked out of the camp, Wang Tong and the hundred households in charge of this place said: "If anyone comes to visit, there is no need to stop them. If anyone asks, tell them what I said!"

The Baihu was stunned for a moment and quickly bowed to take the order.……………………………… The soldiers in the camp heard the cheers and shouts in the wounded camp, and felt puzzled, not knowing what had been born.

But not long after, the carriage on the battlefield, which was regarded as a podium, came to the center of the camp. Wang Tong climbed up to the top of the carriage and lit several bonfires around the carriage. Wang Tong on the top of the carriage was reflected like a god, and ordered the center to quickly convey it to the surroundings.

The entire military camp quickly became quiet, and Wang Tong said loudly on it: "In today's battle, our army killed 8,000, captured 1,000, defeated the Tartars, and our army won!!!"
