Chapter 125 The Loyal Soul of the Qin Army, the Idea of Military Deployment
But Qu Yuan couldn't help sighing in his heart. During the period of following Ying Ji to Qin, Qu Yuan watched the people of Qin who had been chaotic for several years, although the situation was miserable.
However, the people of the Qin state are striving to improve themselves. The officials of the Qin state are clean and clear, the officials dare to give advice, and the generals dare to fight to the death. The whole country is full of vigor and vitality.
In the past six months, although Qu Yuan was taken care of by the shadow guards arranged by Zhang Han, the commander of the shadow guards, Ying Ji did not restrict Qu Yuan's freedom in Xianyang City, but only had shadow guards to protect him when he traveled.
After witnessing with his own eyes that the loyal and honest old Qin people, with the help of Qin officials, live and work in peace and contentment after the country has settled down, and the situation of the Qin country is getting better and better, Qu Yuan's heart is even more complicated.
Compared with the Qin state, the state of Chu is completely different. The difference is not the national strength, but a feeling. The difference is a feeling of daring to be the first in the world and a majestic feeling.
At that moment, Qu Yuan also felt a little shaken, but he shook his head again in his heart. This is not realistic at all.
If he was just an ordinary scholar, he would definitely be attracted by the feeling of Qin that no other country in the world had, and was impressed by the demeanor of Qin King Ying Ji, so he decided to become an official in Qin and serve Qin.
But Qu Yuan has his own perseverance in his heart, his perseverance in the feelings of the state of Chu, and perseverance in the blood of the Chu royal family in his body!
It is because of this perseverance that Qu Yuan has been lingering in contradictions, unable to advance, and even some can't see the front clearly, as if there is a boundless fog in front of him!
"Look, Your Majesty, General Wang Xiaojie and General Zhang Han are leading the army!"
At this moment, Zhao Gao, who was behind Ying Ji, suddenly said, looking at Qu Yuan who was in front of him, there was no dissatisfaction in his heart, because Zhao Gao knew the true value of Qu Yuan.
And I don't know why, as long as Zhao Gao looks at Qu Yuan for a long time, he will feel a very dangerous feeling from Qu Yuan, as if he is facing a top player in the world who is stronger than himself, but carefully It feels really weird to find out that Qu Yuan is an ordinary person at all!
Hearing this, Ying Ji also looked at it, and also found a black wave appearing in the distant horizon.
Civil and military officials and tens of thousands of Qin people are all looking forward to it. This is the Qin army who has won the great victory in the northwest and has triumphed.
With the advancement of time, the waves on the distant horizon are getting closer and closer, and finally the army that stretches for more than ten miles is completely presented in front of everyone.
At the forefront were Zhang Han, the commander of the shadow guards, and Wang Xiaojie, the commander of the army, followed by a 10,000-strong army of iron cavalry, followed by a dense mass of black soldiers from the Qin army.
In addition to the fact that the Qin army of the triumphant class was still led by deputy general Guo Xin, 20,000 Qin army iron cavalry and 30,000 Qin army infantry continued to station in the northwest grassland, a total of more than 80,000 Qin army returned to Qin and waited for the arrangement of the court.
"The last commander Wang Xiaojie and the last commander Zhang Han have lived up to the expectations of the king. This expedition has won a great victory, seized the entire northwestern grasslands, and opened thousands of miles for our Qin country. They specially led the army and waited for the arrangement of the court! "
I saw Wang Xiaojie and Zhang Han step forward and kneel on one knee, clasping their fists and saying.
"Two generals, please come quickly. This time, the two generals and General Guo Xin have won a great victory for our Qin country. The three generals are my great Qin heroes. They have opened up thousands of miles of territory for my great Qin. Many people are very happy. !"
I saw that Ying Ji also stepped forward to help Wang Xiaojie and Zhang Han up, and sighed in the heart of the 80,000 Qin soldiers who were now in the triumphant class.
At the beginning, the 100,000 Anxi Army soldiers plus 10,000 Qin Army soldiers and 30,000 Lishan prisoners totaled 140,000 expedition troops. Although this expedition to the northwest grasslands was a complete victory, some soldiers left their lives in the grasslands forever. above.
"Two generals, where are the loyal souls of my Qin soldiers?"
"Now that I, Qin Wanmin and all the people in the world are here, don't let my Qin soldiers remain anonymous after they die in battle!"
"promise!"
Hearing Ying Ji's words, Wang Xiaojie and Zhang Han trembled in their hearts, the king really did not forget those soldiers who died in battle for the country.
While attaching importance to military exploits, he also does not forget the loyal souls who died in battle for the country. How lucky are the soldiers of the three armies to have such a king!
Wang Xiaojie turned around, raised his hand slightly to the army behind him and made a gesture, the army on both sides suddenly separated to the left and right, and then a picture that shocked the tens of thousands of people in Daqin and the world appeared in the crowd. before.
I saw a phalanx consisting of nearly 10,000 Qin soldiers and soldiers appeared in front of everyone, and the black phalanx gradually stepped forward from the rear of the army.
Every Qin army soldier held a jar in his arms, and all the Qin army soldiers holding the jar exuded an air of vicissitudes and loneliness.
This situation made the civil and military officials, Daqin Wanmin, and the people of the world tremble in their hearts.
"Reporting to the king, although my 140,000-strong Qin army expedition to the northwest has won a great victory, nearly 10,000 people have died in the battle!"
"More than 1,500 soldiers of the Anxi Army were killed in battle, more than 3,000 soldiers of the old Qin army were killed, and more than 5,000 prisoners of 30,000 Lishan were killed in battle. The total number of soldiers killed in battle was 9,721. !"
"All the remains of the soldiers who died in battle have been cremated. These 9,721 jars contain the 9,721 loyal souls of our Qin soldiers!"
Wang Xiaojie said loudly, and there was a slight trembling in the tone of the last battle warrior!
These Qin Jun soldiers holding the ashes of their comrades in arms also had red eyes, but they desperately suppressed the tears in their eyes.
Everyone can see the sadness from these Qin soldiers. It can be seen that these Qin soldiers are desperately suppressing themselves, because for them, fighting on the battlefield is already commonplace, and dying on the battlefield is the final destination of the soldiers.
As a qualified soldier, they can be sad, but they must not cry!
"Only dismantle the battlefield to die for the country, why not return the body wrapped in horse leather, I am a warrior of the Qin army, and I am a big Qin man!"
Ying Ji looked at the nearly 10,000 Qin soldiers who were holding 9,721 jars in their arms and said with emotion, the idea of wanting to deploy martial arts in Daqin became heavier and heavier.
Not to mention the 100,000 Anxi Iron Armor with all the advanced weapons and equipment.
Moreover, Ying Ji provided the expedition army with 300 God of War machine crossbows and 5,000 individual repeating crossbows from the Mingyue World in the Qin Dynasty, plus hundreds of bed crossbows from the Anxi Army.
However, under such luxurious equipment configuration, there are still such high casualties. It seems that even if there is strength or weakness between mortals, there is a limit. If you want to reduce the casualty rate or even zero the casualty rate, you can only appear extraordinary, and only Quan Qinbu Wu.
According to the prediction in Ying Ji's heart, in a battle of this level, with such advanced weapons, the casualties of the army must not exceed 1,000.
However, the army still had nearly 10,000 casualties, which far exceeded Ying Ji's expectations. It seemed that Daqin's military deployment was imperative, and this winter was the best time.
If this idea of Ying Ji spreads out, the whole world will be shaken by it. The 140,000 Qin army will beat the 300,000 main force of Yiqu, behead 240,000, take over 60,000 prisoners, and the Qin army will be killed less than 10,000 people. .
This was already the greatest miracle in military history, but Ying Ji was not satisfied.
He even wanted to reduce the death toll of the Qin army to less than a thousand when the troops were at a disadvantage. If everyone in the world heard about it, they would laugh at King Qin's self-awareness, which would be fantastic!
