28th day of the sixth lunar month in the first year of Dalong Taiping.
When the two generals Ye Baotong and Ning Chao, who were in charge of the troops and horses, received the message from Liu Mingzhi, they fell into formation, broke the captives, pagoda, and the warriors all received orders from the two generals.
The four soldiers of the Six Guards of the New Army all engaged in fierce and fierce battles of varying sizes with the soldiers of the Six Guards of Northern Xinjiang.
The soldiers of Fengying, the commander of the Polu Army of the Sixth Guards of the New Army, fought fiercely with the soldiers of the Xiaoyong Camp of the Flying Eagle Guards on the official road of Fenglin Town for a day.
Flying Eagle Guards bravely fought four thousand soldiers until they were able to kill down to the last man. They all died in Fenglin Guandao, and no one survived.
The soldiers of the New Army's Six Guards' Camp Wei Camp fought fiercely with three thousand soldiers and horses of the Huxiao Battalion of the Huben Army at Fenglei Stream, an important official road leading to the capital from Yunzhou.
The casualties were all heavy.
The Xuanhe Camp of the Rui Shi Army had a fierce battle in Luoxian Gorge, an important official road leading to the capital from Suzhou, resulting in many casualties.
On the official roads leading from other state capitals to the capital, there were fierce battles between the two armies, both large and small.
Situations like the death of all the officers and soldiers of the Flying Eagle Guards' Yongying Battalion on the main road to Beijing were common for a time.
The result of the collision between the elite troops of the Six Guards of the New Army and the Six Guards of the Northern Xinjiang was so tragic.
The soldiers and horses of both sides are under military orders, and there is almost no room for relaxation.
Only killing can solve it.
Within just two or three days, battles broke out one after another on the official road to Beijing, directly resulting in the death of more than 26,000 people from the Six Guards of the New Army and the Six Guards of Northern Xinjiang.
There were countless serious injuries.
Outside Yingzhou City, in the tent of the commander of the Sixth Guards Camp of the New Army.
Liu Mingzhi held the battle reports delivered by the generals from various places, his face so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip from his face.
The group of generals in the big tent were all silent, not daring to take a breath.
They seemed to have sensed the suppressed anger in Liu Mingzhi's heart that had not burst out.
While a group of generals were thinking about each other, Liu Mingzhi grabbed the battle report in his hand and on the table and threw it to the ground. He raised his foot and kicked the table in front of him to the ground.
“In less than three days, more than 26,000 people from both sides were killed in direct combat.
More than 26,000 people, more than 26,000 people.
Three Northern Expeditions, a life-and-death battle with the elite enemy forces of the two countries, Jin and Turkmenistan, resulted in casualties that only took a month!
It’s just gone, it’s just gone!”
Song Qing looked at Liu Mingzhi who seemed to be in a daze. He picked up the scattered documents on the ground with a low expression, raised his hand to lift up the desk that had fallen to the ground, and put the pile of documents back to their original position.
“Commander, please calm down. Both sides have soldiers and horses with military orders. Each of them is carrying out an order. It is inevitable that a fierce and fierce battle will occur.
Marshal's order was delivered in time, and Marshal Yun's last order was delivered to the soldiers of the Sixth Guards of Northern Xinjiang in time. The battle was stopped in time and did not lead to a catastrophic disaster. It was a blessing among misfortunes.
Please calm down, Commander, and express condolences to the brothers!"
“Please calm down, Commander, and show condolences to the brothers!”
Liu Mingzhi looked around at the generals of the various guard camps in the tent with complicated eyes, and forcibly controlled the depressed emotions in his heart.
"Sorrows, sorrows.
My condolences! My condolences!
Song Qing!”
“The end is here!”
“Send a message to the other five generals of the Six Guards of Northern Xinjiang except General Nangong Ye of the Flying Eagle Guard.
On July 15th, I held a banquet at Ma Mingpo, west of Yingzhou City, and invited all the generals under the six generals of Northern Xinjiang to discuss how to quell the chaos in Dalong!
Generals, please give me a warm welcome and be sure to be present!"
“Get the order!”
“Tang Ru!”
“The end is here!”
“Have you compiled the rosters of lost soldiers in each department?”
“Reporting to the commander-in-chief, we have sorted it out. Among them, the most casualties were the Polu Army Commander Feng Ying and the two infantry and horsemen from the Rui Shi Army Hushan Camp.
They were at Fenglin Official Road and Luoxian Gorge. They had fierce and fierce battles with the Feiying Guard's Jiaoyong Camp and the Huxiang Guard's Shanlin Camp.
The damage situation is almost the same.
The Feiying Guard's brave battalion of 4,000 iron cavalry and the Tiger Guard's 4,000 mountain forest battalion of infantry and cavalry combined with the soldiers were completely wiped out in two important official roads.
The reason has been sent to the two camps to learn the details.
It was nothing more than the fact that the cavalry was very fast and far ahead of the rest of the troops. They encountered the troops and horses on the defensive official road of our division, and a fierce battle broke out.
When the orders from our department and the orders from Commander Yun’s department are received, it will already be done.”
“Oh, you don’t need to say any more, I understand!”
"yes!"
“You yourself know how to deal with the issue of pension, so I won’t nag you again.
Let the spirits of our brothers in heaven rest in peace!”
“The general understands, please rest assured, commander. After the general retires from the meeting, he will immediately convene the generals of each department to carefully discuss the compensation for the casualties of the brothers in each department.”
“That’s good! Cheng Kai, Zhou Baoyu!”
“We’re here!”
“Have all the wars in various departments ended now? Is there any chaos that is beyond our control?”
“Reporting to the commander-in-chief, according to reports from the scouts, the war in all the ministries has ended, and the war has ended without affecting the nearby people. Now the generals in the ministries are commanding the troops and horses to take care of the post-war affairs.”
“Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, our scouts reported the same situation. Now the war has calmed down and has not spread to affect the people.
Now we are still dealing with post-war matters.
only"
“Just what?”
Zhou Baoyu hesitated for a moment, then took out a stack of notes from his wristband and handed it to the table in front of Liu Mingzhi.
“Commander, this is the battle situation reported by the generals of all majors under the last general’s command.
Although all the battles to prevent the enemy from entering Beijing ended in victory.
However, the brothers are now more afraid of war, and more or less, they have some timid thoughts in their hearts.
The feeling of beheading one's former comrades off their horses with one's own hands, let alone ordinary soldiers, even those of us who lead the army, may not be able to get over it for a while.
After all, they are not the enemy of Jin and Tu, but their own robes of life and death fighting each other.
So I don’t think that if the psychological pressure on the brothers is not relieved in time.
This has caused the brothers to mount their horses and not dare to lift their swords. I am afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future."
Looking at Zhou Baoyu's cautious expression, Liu Mingzhi's expression also became serious.
He understood that Zhou Baoyu was definitely not an alarmist. Once the soldiers under his command became afraid of war, the hidden dangers involved should not be underestimated.
Rubbing his temples and thinking for a long time, Liu Mingzhi sighed and waved his hands.
"I have kept this matter in mind. You all should perform your duties first and deal with your own business. Let me think carefully about how to deal with this matter!"
“Yes, we are leaving!”
The generals took the lead and left the tent, leaving only two sisters, Qi Ya and He Shu, who served as personal soldiers, accompanying them.
“Husband, please be more open-minded, after all, this is not the ending you want to see!”
Liu Mingzhi stared blankly at Qi Ya who was comforting him, got up and walked slowly towards Qi Ya, silently sat beside Qi Ya's legs, took Qi Ya's hand and sat beside him.
He himself lay on Qi Ya's legs like a helpless child, sobbing softly.
One of them is my current brother, and the other is my former brother. They killed each other and killed more than 20,000 people.
There are more than 20,000 people!
Sister Ya, shouldn’t I really rebel?”
Qi Ya looked at her husband, who was nestling helplessly and blaming herself in her arms. She sighed quietly and gently stroked her husband's scattered hair.
“Changing dynasties is inevitable, inevitable!
Look out, look out!
Husband, you are not wrong, it is just the world that is wrong!"
Wenren Yunshu looked at her lost husband at a loss. She also wanted to comfort her husband with a few words like her sister Qi Ya, but her lips pursed for a long time.
I still don’t know how to comfort my husband to get out of his self-blame.
