V2.Chapter 60

The fierce battle between Sanshui army and Du Ji army lasted from the afternoon until it was dark. By this time, the inner wall of Du Ji army could not be found. Only a long corpse pile was built high between the two armies, and the blood gurgled out of the corpse pile and mixed in the surrounding soil, making the ground of the battlefield extremely muddy and trampled down with one foot, It takes a lot of effort to pull out the leg. Soon, the blood solidified, making the land condense into dark red clods, and then new blood poured over

Fighting has reached this level, which is a nightmare for the soldiers of both sides and a test for the commanders of both sides. Now it is no longer the combat strength of the whole army, but the willpower. It depends on who can hold on and who can survive to the end.

In this competition, Remy azabao defeated Liang Qi. Remy azabao was in a desperate battle. He could only bite his teeth and stick to it. There was no way to retreat. Otherwise, Liang Qi had a backhand and reinforcements to count on. He would not and could not exchange the lives of all the soldiers for this tragic victory.

After dark, Liang Qi took the lead in issuing the order to withdraw the troops. This order is great news for both the enemy and us. After such a fierce battle all day, the soldiers of both sides have been exhausted. Everything in front of them is double shadow, and their legs tremble suddenly and straightly.

When the Sanshui army retreated, the general of Du Ji army also ordered the whole army to hunt down, but the soldiers below couldn't stand it. Many soldiers fell tired in the blood and mud on the spot, lying on the ground and didn't move. Some people vomited loudly, and they didn't know whether they were tired or disgusted by the mountain like corpses in front of them.

After the fierce battle, the rest was surprisingly quiet, and the wind army camp and Duji army camp were silent. The bodies collection teams of both sides sent out one after another to collect the bodies of their dead soldiers on the battlefield. It was only at this time that the wind army did not need to fight each other in duki camp.

Rushan's corpses were gradually separated and transported away. It is hastily estimated that there are no less than 40000 corpses left by the two armies, and no one has taken advantage of each other. It is basically half of the wind army and half of the Duji army, which is in line with the sentence "you die a thousand and I die eight hundred".

Back in the barracks, Liang Qi immediately asked people to count their own casualties. The number of casualties of the Sanshui army in this battle reached 22000, and more than 10000 wounded soldiers. The casualties added up to more than 35000. This is the most casualty battle since the Sanshui army entered Tiya.

After reading the casualty statistics, Liang Qi sighed and said nothing for a long time. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said, "take back the bodies of our soldiers as soon as possible. In addition, send a letter to general Guan Tang to keep him away from Val town. He can find a hiding place ten miles away from Val town to stay temporarily."

"Yes, general!" Bai Yong on one side arched his hand and said.

Shangguan yuanrang said, "after only one battle, the casualties of our army will be so heavy. The crossbows and stone bullets produced will also cost all. What else to do next?"

"Fight?" Liang Qi smiled bitterly. Where can we make another strong attack in this battle? Du Ji's army is too strong and on the defensive. He was afraid that his whole army would run out of troops and may not be able to beat down Du Ji's camp. He shook his head and said, "our army is no longer able to make a strong attack. On the fifth watch, our army abandoned the camp and retreated."

Shangguan yuan let him stamp his feet. He really didn't want to admit that he didn't have any advantage in a frontal confrontation with Du Jijun. He bowed his head and said no more.

Liang Qihuan looked around and said, "we must retreat quickly, or we will be caught up by the enemy if we can't go far. All the baggage in the army, as long as it's not necessary, will be left!"

Hearing this, Shangguan yuan asked angrily, "leave it all to Du Jijun?"

Liang Qi said: "just deposit! When we defeat the main force of the enemy, we will recapture it."

"Hum!" Shangguanyuan let snort, sat down angrily, tilted his head and looked away.

It was not until the third watch that the body collection team of the wind army took all the bodies of the dead back to the camp. There was no need to look at the bodies. The collected military cards alone contained ten small boxes. It was impossible to carry so many bodies during the retreat, and Tiya was too far away from the land of the wind country. When the bodies were transported back, they had to rot on the way. Liang Qi ordered that the bodies be burned on the spot, so as to bring the ashes of the dead back home after the war.

It is not easy to burn more than 20000 corpses, and they are cremated in batches and times. Fortunately, Fengjun cut more trees in the early stage, so there is no need to look for firewood now.

When burning the body, Liang Qi, Shangguan yuanrang and Bai Yong all came to the scene.

Looking at the piled high bodies gradually shrouded in fire, shangguanyuan let Jingliang's eyes reflect the jumping light of fire. With a long sigh, he murmured, "they are all my brave warriors!"

Liang Qi narrowed his eyes and said, "yes."

"But who will remember them?"

Liang Qi was silent for a moment and said, "country."

"If there were no war, they would not die."

"Only when you believe that you are fighting for your country and the teacher of justice will you not be defeated by the pressure of war." Liang Qi turned his head, took a deep look at Shangguan yuanrang and said, "yuanrang, we have reason to fight. We are here to protect our country."

Shangguan yuan smiled and sighed, "isn't it ridiculous to stand on the territory of other countries and say you are protecting your own country?"

Liang Qi was silent. Bai Yong on one side cleared his throat heavily.

Shangguan yuan let know that his words could be convicted of disturbing the morale of the army, but he didn't care at all. He frowned and said, "in order to save TYA, I have to sacrifice so many warriors. Who can guarantee that this war must be right?"

Liang Qi suddenly asked, "do you know why I never get too close to my brothers in the army?"

Shangguanyuan looked at him suspiciously, thought for a moment, and said, "because you are too arrogant and think you are born noble, so you are superior..."

Before he finished, Liangqi connected road: "Because I'm afraid I'll never see my face after a battle. Since I join the army, I must be prepared to sacrifice for the country and the king, and I must firmly believe that the decisions made by the emperor and the court are correct. Without such awareness, I don't have to stay in the army anymore. I'd better go home and farm. At least that's a contribution to the country. What the army doesn't need most is A voice of complaint and doubt. " With that, Liang Qi turned and walked to his camp. At the same time, he waved his hand without looking back, yawned and said, "I'm a little tired. Now I can rest for more than an hour. I'll take a nap."

Looking at Liang Qi's back, Shangguan yuanrang raised his eyebrows and muttered, "Liang Qi looks a little different today."

Bai Yong nodded, walked to Shangguan yuanrang and whispered, "our army has not suffered such heavy casualties for a long time, and the general must be very sad. Although the general never said that as the commander of the army, the general carries the lives of the whole army, and the pressure is far greater than you and me..."

"That's true." Of course, Shangguan yuanrang can understand how much pressure Liang Qi has. Because of this, Liang Qi has repeatedly handed over the most dangerous task to him, but he has never really resented Liang Qi.

When Liang Qi's figure completely disappeared from sight, Shangguan yuanrang suddenly said, "he won't hide back in the camp and cry?"

Bai Yong was stunned, scratched his hair and said uncertainly, "no?"

Shangguanyuan shook his head and said, "let's go and have a look."

"This... Is not appropriate..."

"What are you afraid of with me?" As he spoke, shangguanyuan asked Bai Yong to walk to Liang Qi's camp with a meteor in his stride.

When he got close, he didn't say hello to the guard at the door. Shangguan yuan let Bai Yong break in directly.

In the camp, Liang Qi and Yi lie on the side of the collapsed bed. By the candlelight of one side, they are looking at the map attentively again. For Shangguan yuanrang and Bai Yong who suddenly broke in, his face didn't show the slightest surprise. He just asked lightly, "what's up?"

Liang qiru was so calm that Shangguan yuanrang and Bai Yong were surprised. The former smiled awkwardly and said, "I bet with general Bai whether you will run back to the camp and cry..."

"As a result, you two were disappointed."

"You're really not sad at all!" Shangguan yuanrang came forward and shook his head.

Liang Qi put down the map, looked up at Guan yuanrang and said, "a man's sadness is not just in his eyes. Isn't it?" Then he looked down at the map and continued, "I hope your way of expressing sadness is to cut off Remy azabao's head with your knife in the battle of tomorrow."

Shangguan yuanrang slowly clenched his fist, nodded and said, "I know what to do." Then he winked at Bai Yong and turned and walked out.

Before he left the camp, Liang Qi called him, "Yuan rang!"

"Well?" Shangguanyuan asked him to turn back.

Liang qizhengse said, "we have to come to Tiya to fight with Duji army. If you don't have firm faith in this war, say this sentence a hundred times a day."

Shangguan Yuan made his old face red, and moaned and murmured, "my brain is very normal." Having said that, he was out of the camp. Bai Yong looked at Liang Qi and didn't dare to stay. He hurried out with him.

On the fifth watch, all the bodies had been burned, and the remaining ashes were temporarily buried on the spot and marked. Then Liang Qi ordered the whole army to retreat in light, but all heavy things were discarded.

According to his order, the 70000 strong Sanshui army, carrying only rations, left the barracks silently and retreated in the direction of Val town.

During the retreat, there was silence in the team. Only the roaring footsteps could be heard. Now no one is still in the mood of chatting.

On the other side, duki barracks.

When it was getting brighter, Remy azabao got up. The first thing he did was to go out of the camp and go to the observation platform to see the situation of the three water army camp.

He raised his eyes and looked across. The camp of the Sanshui army was calm and silent. Remy azabao moved in his heart, pondered for a moment, and suddenly shouted, "no, the wind army is defeated!" As he spoke, he turned to the herald around him and shouted, "pass on my military order, leave only 20000 troops to guard the camp, and all the other soldiers will go out with me to pursue and kill the wind army!"
