Chapter 75 The Little Expert in Cleaning the Battlefield
The sound of fighting on the battlefield gradually subsided. After a surprise attack, the Qin army was seriously injured and thousands of people were killed or injured.
Obviously, they are no longer able to carry out large-scale siege activities, or even small-scale harassment.
The main general Liang Yun was killed, and his brother Liang Cheng fled north early in the morning with the remaining soldiers.
The Jin army won a complete victory. Not only did they severely damage the enemy army, but they also killed the enemy generals. The morale of the soldiers had been raised to the extreme.
While they were cleaning the battlefield, they were still cursing and spouting all kinds of swear words. Liu Yu, because the Qin army had been completely defeated, he could also calmly deal with the consequences of his victory.
He did not rush back to the riverside, but took out his cloth handkerchief and began to wipe the spear. The more he looked at this weapon, the more he liked it.
Secretary Wang is right, the spear and the double stirrups are the best match!
After this battle, Liu Yu felt like he had obtained a treasure. Seeing Liu Yu's happy expression, Huan Shiqian gradually noticed that the weapon in his hand was different from the ordinary version.
Liu Yu didn't raise his head, his eyes still stayed on the big baby.
He just said: "This is a weapon specially made by Secretary Wang for me. It is different from the ones used in the military camp."
"It turns out that you were able to take the credit from me all because of this special weapon!"
Huan Shiqian immediately found the reason for the failure. It was not that I was incompetent, but that others had artifacts that I did not have.
"This weapon is so easy to use. It seems that I need to ask Secretary Wang to pay more attention to it. We must not favor the Beifu soldiers. We also need to let each of our Jingzhou soldiers have one!"
Huan Shiqian was not one who would suffer, so he immediately thought of seeking benefits for his own army. Liu Yu was helpless, as this matter was really not something he could have the final say on.
"If General Huan really wants it, he has to go to Secretary Wang to discuss it." He agreed, then clapped his horse and left. Huan Shiqian looked at Liu Yu's strong back and muttered: "Secretary Wang?"
"What can a white-faced scholar do?"
General Liang Cheng gathered up his remaining troops, about 2,000 of them, and headed north. For them, the most economical and practical way now was to run north to Xiangyang. On the one hand, they could consolidate Xiangyang's defense, and on the other hand, they could spy on the situation and strive to cross over.
Jiang returned to the north.
After a hearty night battle, the most proud person was undoubtedly Yingyang General Liu Laozhi.
Cleaning up the battlefield is my favorite!
When it comes to grabbing supplies, Liu Laozhi has always been the first to rush. As the commander-in-chief of the Beifu army, he doesn't feel there is anything wrong with standing on the river and directing his subordinates to clean up the battlefield.
It was clear that the main battle was the Jingzhou Corps commanded by Huan Yi. He, Liu Laozhi, was only responsible for guarding the rear. As a result, they rushed and killed them and lost their troops. As for him, his overall strength was not much damaged, but he still took advantage of the Jingzhou Corps.
When he returned to camp to rest, he took his subordinates and ran out to collect the baggage that the enemy had not had time to take away.
He is so thick-skinned.
Wang Mi pinched his nose and directed Duan Xian: "You should also go along. If you have any good things, keep them for yourself."
Duan Xian helped him re-treat the wound and was quite surprised.
"Xiao Lang, I am your escort and I have not gone to the battlefield. Why should I collect baggage? Besides, what can be collected on the battlefield is nothing more than armor and wooden chariots. I can't bring them back either."
When Duan Xian was in the north, he also served in the army. At that time, he had cleaned countless battlefields, but he was really not very interested in those broken things.
Wang Mi squinted and said, "Go if you are told. How can there be so much nonsense?"
"Have you forgotten that we followed the Beifu soldiers all the way? What is the purpose?"
Duan Xian was stunned, monitoring the movements of the Beifu soldiers and exploring the internal situation of the Huan family's Jingzhou soldiers. This was the ultimate purpose of their trip!
What are you waiting for!
Duan Xian jumped up immediately without saying anything.
What good things can I receive?
On the messy battlefield, Liu Laozhi's eyes gleamed and his mouth burst into tears.
When luck comes, it is really unstoppable.
The armor is mine!
The food and grass are mine too!
No one was seen during the battle, but when the loot was being collected, Yuan Fei jumped out.
Someone who has always been on the same page as Liu Laozhi will naturally not be absent from this kind of advantageous thing.
The armors of the dead Di Qin soldiers were carefully taken off, and those that were still intact were carefully piled up.
The damaged ones should not be wasted, and the broken armor pieces should be properly collected one by one. These are also treasures.
Contrary to the imagination of many people nowadays, such a fully equipped and well-made armor is extremely complex in workmanship and extremely expensive to build.
Based on the actual situation during the confrontation between the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Sixteen Kingdoms, for a unit composed of infantry and cavalry, the ratio of cavalry to infantry was basically around 1:15. This was despite the fact that the Northern Army had abundant war horse resources.
In the Southern Army, which lacked horses like the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it is undeniable to say that a team of 5,000 people with about 200 cavalry is already an ideal configuration.
In such a team, generally only noble cavalry can be equipped with a complete set of well-made iron armor.
For ordinary infantry, it is considered good to be able to wear armor made of bamboo and leather.
In ancient battlefields, both sides of the battle were generally not that particular. The enemy's armor, no matter what shape it was in or what special markings it had, was still a good thing with excellent workmanship.
Since it is a good thing, there is no reason not to keep it.
Yuan Fei was the most enthusiastic about this job. The feeling of taking off the armor from the enemy's corpse was so satisfying.
After all, it is impossible to count on his three-legged cat skills to kill more enemies on the battlefield, but capturing these armors can be regarded as a military achievement to some extent.
"I didn't expect that what Liang Cheng brought was really the elite of the Qin army. It's a pity." Yuan Fei took off the head of a Qin army soldier.
Fu Jian unified the Central Plains, and the national power within the country was relatively strong. He also attached great importance to military affairs, and the armors he made for his soldiers were all very fine and fancy.
Other families' doudou have a simple cover. Some doudou used by the poorer separatist forces don't even have a top cover. In order to save materials, they only have a circle-shaped iron armor protection on the back of the head.
However, Fu Jian's Qin army not only had well-made douchi, but some cavalry were also equipped with masks. Even the Jin army did not have such a good treasure.
Yuan Fei threw away his douche and replaced it with Qin Jun's. Not to mention, putting on this majestic douche, he immediately felt his momentum rising.
In front of him, General Yingyang Liu Laozhi was also very busy. Even though he was now a fifth-grade general, he was quite famous in Beifu. But when he saw the bargain, he was still too excited to think about it.
want.
However, his focus was not on the dirty armor, but on the piles of grain and grass and the weapons and property that the Qin army had not had time to take away.
