Chapter 354: One-Sided Massacre
When Mr. Wen Yang was feeling deeply moved, soldiers from the First Independent Division suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain, blocking the way down the mountain.
Under the command of the officer, the soldiers of the First Independent Division quickly formed a dense square formation, holding up their volleys and firing a continuous volley at the fleeing private soldiers.
The warhorse that was shot let out a series of sad neighs, and fell down with a bang, throwing Mr. Wen Yang far away, with his right leg broken, and he could only lie on the ground and groan.
The guards who were guarding him cried out and fell off their horses under the dense rain of bullets, and the warhorses cried out sadly and fell down with a bang.
Several loyal guards wanted to rush up to save Mr. Wen Yang, and the dense volleys of gunfire like firecrackers sounded again, and all the guards who rushed up fell in a pool of blood, and the injured who were not dead lay on the mud and struggled and howled.
The densely packed fleeing soldiers then rushed down the mountain like a flood that broke through the dam. The soldiers of the Independent First Division, who blocked the way down the mountain, used continuous dense volleys of gunfire and grenades to build a death iron net. Anyone caught in the iron net was shot into a sieve.
The mountain road was filled with corpses and wounded soldiers of various causes of death, blocking the mountain road, and the blood dyed the mud red.
On the mountain, Hong Niangzi personally led the soldiers of the First Brigade of the Independent First Division to slowly squeeze forward, using dense volleys of gunfire to squeeze the living space of the rebels bit by bit.
The thousands of rebels who were blocked on the mountain road had no hope of breaking out. Amid the slogans of "surrender and save life", they threw away their weapons one by one and squatted down obediently with their heads in their hands.
Mr. Wen Yang was a ruthless man. He didn't know where he had thrown his sword. He took out a sharp dagger from his arms and stabbed it into his heart with force. He threw his body forward, and the dagger didn't reach the handle. He died in an instant.
The soldiers of the First Independent Division happily cleaned up the battlefield. To be promoted and rewarded, soldiers need military merits, and military merits mean war. Now that the war is over, they are reorganized and undergo various military training. Unexpectedly, this rebel army actually gave them credit, which was really a pleasant surprise.
The results of the battle were quickly counted. Of the 20,000 rebels, except for the 1,000 people left by Mr. Wen Yang to guard the military supplies in the camp, 19,000 people stayed on Xiaopan Mountain, more than 4,000 people were killed or wounded, and the remaining 15,000 people were taken prisoner.
There were 0 casualties on our side. Logically, such a result is very brilliant, but the soldiers of the whole division did not show off. This battle was completely one-sided. It is more accurate to say that it is a massacre than a battle.
However, it can be regarded as a practical training after changing clothes. It is a bit good anyway, at least some valuable experience in actual combat has been gained.
Hong Niangzi looked at the captured weapons, armor and other spoils with a smile. These things can only be recycled as scrap metal. After conversion, the logistics and quartermaster department will pay money according to a certain ratio as rewards for soldiers and welfare for the troops. Anyway, it is controlled by the commander of the troops.
Hong Niangzi didn't know how much money she could get. She was just interested in the distribution system of captured spoils.
To be precise, she was curious about the person who formulated this distribution system.
This distribution system has a unified description in the welfare benefits of the new army. The advantage is to avoid officers withholding soldiers' rewards, motivate soldiers to win more battles, and enhance the cohesion of the troops.
The person who can come up with this distribution system must love the soldiers very much, and must be deeply loved by the soldiers and swear to serve them to the death.
This person is so awesome that she admires him. I heard that the person who came up with this idea is that person. I don't know what strange and amazing things he has in his mind?
Well, she admitted that this guy is not a tyrant, and he has a little bit of wisdom and bravery.
All new army units have military police, which is the law enforcement team of the old army. They are responsible for supervising military discipline, supervising battles, and interrogating. The scale varies from platoon to company.
After interrogation and screening, more than 10,000 prisoners of war were identified, and all officers were detained in separate cells and heavily guarded. After the war was really over, they were taken into the city and handed over to the Jinyiwei for interrogation.
Hong Niangzi didn't know how the Jinyiwei interrogated these prisoners. She only knew that the emperor would make a big fuss about this matter. These prisoners were very important, so she ordered them to be strictly guarded. Without her order, no one was allowed to contact these prisoners, and those who violated the military law would be punished.
Although Mr. Wen Yang left a thousand people to guard the piles of military supplies, they were attacked by a battalion of the Independent First Division. After a barrage of volleys and grenades, they collapsed and fled in all directions.
The battalion commander did not order a pursuit, but quickly took over the camp to protect the safety of the supplies. Protecting all the military supplies was the key.
