Chapter 796 Self-destruction of 3,000 to kill 32,000 enemies!
The Southern Wei army withdrew from Taohua Valley, and the war came to an end!
After the Southern Wei army withdrew, Zuo Zhen, covered in blood, came to Li Bu's horse with a sword in his arms, and knelt on one knee with respect and solemn expression to celebrate and say, "I will pay homage to Zuo Zhen to the Grand Marshal!"
Li Bu jumped off the war horse, stretched out his old big hand to help Zuo Zhen up, slapped Zuo Zhen on the shoulder with relief and said, "Good example, I deserve to be the one I value. I have not disappointed the prince's reputation and successfully defended the Peach Blossom Valley!"
Zuo Zhen lowered his head in shame and raised his hand to compile and replied: "The Grand Marshal has praised the Grand Marshal. If the Grand Marshal had not arrived in time, the Grand Marshal would have died at the hands of the Southern Wei army. He would not hide it from the Grand Marshal. Just when the Grand Marshal had just arrived, I was preparing to surrender to the Southern Wei army and then commit suicide to apologize to the Prince!"
Zuo Zhen did not hide his idea of surrendering and told Li Bu bluntly.
"It is understandable to choose to surrender for the sake of the lives of the soldiers. Besides, you have no intention of surviving, so you are not at fault!" Li Bu looked at Zuo Zhen meaningfully and said.
Yang Hu next to him couldn't help but interrupt when he heard this sentence: "I am sorry that Li Shuai's words are not allowed to agree. As a general, even if the situation is extremely critical, he must try every means to expand the results of the battle. As a soldier, he should also regard the highest honor of death on the battlefield!"
"From the moment you step into the barracks, you should be prepared to die in battle. You should not surrender because you cannot defeat or think that this is a war that cannot be won. If you do not have the will to die and the war that is not willing to die, you will lose even if you win!"
Li Bu quickly bent down to Yang Hu to salute, "I have received the teachings!"
"I'm here to learn!" Zuo Zhen also followed Li Bu to celebrate the salute to Yang Hu.
If someone else had said this, they would have refuted it, but this sentence was really impossible to refute from Yang Hu. After all, the Qin army relied on this strong willpower to win wars that could not be won again and again.
For example, the Battle of Yangguan!
More than 100,000 soldiers and civilians can turn the tables against the will of 500,000 elite Jin troops, relying on this will of death!
"I dare not!" Yang Hu raised his hand in a modest and good manner to give a reply.
Li Bu looked at Zuo Zhen again and asked, "How many people do you have in your army? Are there any soldiers and horses in other areas of Taohua Valley?"
Hearing this, Zuo Zhen's expression showed pain. He saw him looking at the layers of corpses on the ground, then at the more than 3,000 remaining soldiers resting beside him, and finally sighed, "The Grand Marshal and the last general's troops are all here, but some are standing and some are lying down!"
"That's all left!" Li Bu's face darkened, and his heart was a little heavy.
The remaining soldiers resting beside him were at most more than 3,000, which means that there were only 3,000 Northern Wei troops left in Taohua Valley!
When Yang Hu mentioned the casualties, his face became heavy and he couldn't help but look around. When he saw the red-robed soldiers lying on the ground and the lonely and unowned war horse, Yang Hu felt heartbroken, but the pain did not appear on the surface, and he suppressed his heart hard.
"I passed this general order to dismount the entire army to clean up the battlefield and settle casualties. Be sure to record the names of every soldier in our army's death!" Yang Hu shouted loudly with a solemn expression!
"Abide by the order!"
After ordering, the Qin cavalry jumped off their war horses and began to clean up the corpses all over the mountains!
The battlefield after the war was filled with blood, and blood stained the rivers and streams in the valley, and the soil was dyed red. The fertile Peach Blossom Valley that has been ravaged several times is likely to bloom more peach blossoms here after a year or two, and every peach blossom may be home to the souls of soldiers.
The blood qi surges into the sky and shakes the valley!
The hero's corpse is buried in the green mountains!
Half an hour later!
Noon!
Yang Hu sat under a dry peach blossom tree, and Li Bu and Zuo Zhen were also sitting next to him. Although the three of them were martial arts masters, they also consumed a lot of physical strength and needed to be supplemented.
At this moment, a Qin army captain rushed over on a war horse. After reaching Yang Hu's first three steps, he knelt on one knee with respect and paid a review: "Report to the General, the casualties of our army have come out!"
Yang Hu was closing his eyes to rest. When he heard this, he immediately opened his eyes, looked at the captain and asked, "How many casualties?"
"Our army suffered 3,000 casualties, and killed 32,000 enemies. All the soldiers were buried with great funerals. The soldiers were still helping the Northern Wei army clean the battlefield!" The Qin army commander replied respectfully.
"hiss!"
Li Bu and Zuo Zhen couldn't help but take a breath!
Qin Jun is so fucking perverted!
"The casualties are too serious, generals at all levels are ordered to reflect on themselves!" Yang Hu said with a serious expression.
"Abide by the order!" The Qin army commander responded quickly!
Seeing this scene, Li Bu and Zuo Zhen couldn't help but look at Yang Hu more. Look, is this what a person said? It was too much casualties, and he ordered generals at all levels to do it as if they were defeated. The most important thing is that not only Yang Hu thought so, but also looked at the expression of the commander who came to report, the commander also felt that the cost was too much casualties.
Is this arrogance?
Li Bu and Zuo Zhen did not understand what the environment was, so they made the Qin army develop the same mentality as if they had won a big victory.
"The order is to tell them that there is no need to marching in a hurry, and they all return according to the same route and pick up all the discarded armor!" Yang Hu ordered expressionlessly.
The purpose of discarding the armor is to rush to Taohua Valley in time. Now the goal is achieved. There is no need to move in a hurry without rushing in the 50,000 infantry that have not arrived yet. Not only that, they also have to pick up all the armor discarded by the army. With the armor, more soldiers can be saved.
"The last general obeys the order!" The Qin army commander responded with a solemn and respectful expression, then stood up from the ground, quickly rode his war horse to convey Yang Hu's military order.
As soon as the Qin army commander left, Li Bu couldn't help saying: "General Yang, our Northern Wei army suffered heavy casualties and was no longer able to help the Qin army fight against the Southern Wei. Therefore, the main force of the Southern Wei army can only rely on the Qin army to fight against the Qin army!"
"Of course, the remaining 3,000 troops of our Northern Wei army will fight against the Southern Wei with the Qin army. We will never escape at the last battle or avoid the battle. General Yang will give the order. What should we do next? I obey General Yang's orders!"
Yang Hu fell into silence, and a thoughtful look appeared between his eyebrows. After pondering for a moment, he spoke out: "When the battlefield is cleaned, lead the army out of the valley, set up a camp directly in front of the Southern Wei army camp, and confront each other with the Southern Wei army!"
PS: "Look for full order, please complete order, please complete order, please tell me the important things three times. Please support the full order in view of the author's efforts!"
