Fang Jie had two gadgets in his hand, and foreigners seemed to be very ignorant of the preference of Han people. This gadget is called a lion's head, and it's not the kind of dish that's eaten, but a kind of walnut toy. This thing was extorted by Fang Jie from San Jinhou after arriving here. It is said that it is not worth much, but San Jinhou has been playing with it for several years.
He looked away from the palm of his hand and looked at Xiulunsi who was sitting opposite.
Hurons with a pale face.
"Actually, this is not a clever strategy, it's just too tight. If I can put myself in the situation, maybe it only takes a few minutes to see all your strategies clearly. It's a pity that my own state of mind has not calmed down."
Thurence said.
"It doesn't matter if you're smart or not."
Fang Xie seems to be in a good mood. Although the battle on the front line is not over yet, there is nothing that can stop it from happening now.
"Just now you used the words put yourself in the shoes, very good."
Fang Jie looked at Xiulunsi and said, "If you could change the scene to Han Chinese invading Opulu before you came to my camp, you would not be fooled either. It's a pity that you have been acting all these years The characters are the aggressors, not the victims. So even if you understand the victim's feelings, you can't achieve that level of hatred and anger."
Xiulunsi turned his head to the window: "Maybe I am the first sinner after the rise of the empire."
"No."
Fang Jie shook his head: "The views of sinners are relative. You think you are a sinner of Opulu, but you have been a sinner of other nations since you left Opru with the team. In fact, now It’s a bit hypocritical to say this, war is very pure, either you win or I win, there are so many right and wrong.”
"yes."
Hurons smiled wryly: "War is very pure."
"What are you going to do next?"
Xiulunsi asked Fang Jie: "Is it the same attitude when facing Lehman next?"
"I have this attitude towards any enemy who sets foot on the land of the Han people."
This is Fang Jie's answer.
Xiulunsi was silent, and after a while he said: "You may have underestimated him, Lehman is the only person in this world that I fear, although you defeated me, a large part of the reason is because of my self-confidence. Big cause. I trust my feelings, you're not as strong as Lehmann."
"Maybe."
Fang Jie didn't argue about anything.
Debating whether you are strong enough with someone you have defeated is a very boring thing. Second only to debating whether you are strong enough with someone who has defeated you. But Fang Jie attaches great importance to Hurons' attitude towards Lehman, because he can get information about his next enemy from it.
"It's a routine process."
Fang Jie's voice was soft but serious, and he didn't mean to be joking at all: "Generally speaking, when you become a prisoner, the first thing you face is definitely not torture, but your enemy talking to you in a friendly manner." , I hope you can smoothly share the information you need. If you don’t cooperate, the next step will be torture.”
He said.
Schulence shook his head: "You know, I'm old enough."
The obvious meaning of this is that I am old enough not to be afraid of death.
But Fang Jie smiled: "I know you are old enough, but this is just an illusion of your own. You think you are old enough so you are not afraid of death, but in fact...the older you are, the more you are afraid of death. "
Schulence sneered, expressing his emotions.
Fang Jie stood up, as if he didn't want to say anything more.
"According to the process, I will give you an hour to think. After an hour, it is estimated that your camp will no longer exist, and the Battle of Malan Mountain will end. You did not die in the way Lehman arranged, nor did you die in accordance with the plan. I left by my own arrangement. This is a failure, a complete failure. I am going to count my booty now. During the attack, I ordered the firearms battalion not to be stingy, and fired all the artillery shells. But I am not at a disadvantage, because these Things will be snatched back from your army, and it will be snatched back ten times and tens of times."
He left the tent.
Didn't say a word.
Shortly after Fang Jie left, another old man was sent into this tent.
Kirkbo.
…
…
Fang Jie walked while listening to his subordinates' reports.
"My lord, although the attack went smoothly because of the adequate preparations, the combat effectiveness of the foreigners is indeed extraordinary. The losses of the cavalry are not too great, but after the full-scale attack, the losses of the infantry are not too small. There is no complete statistics yet. According to preliminary estimates, at least 20,000 soldiers will die in battle."
After hearing these words, Fang Jie frowned involuntarily.
Twenty thousand British bones.
"The losses of the foreigners are much greater than ours. Because they are not prepared, when the foreigners organize to resist, they can't affect the overall situation. However, the fighting quality of the foreigners is indeed very strong. Even a team of hundreds of people improvised Resist with the help of terrain. Most of our soldier losses were killed in this scattered and small-scale fortified battle."
Liao Sheng looked at Fang Jie's face while talking.
Fang Jie said: "No matter how many times the loss of foreigners is ours, the dead brother is dead after all."
His mood seemed a little depressed.
Wu Yiyi, Marquis of Sanjin, strode over from a distance, and when he saw him, Fang Xie already knew that the battle was almost over.
"My lord."
Wu Yidao bowed his head and clasped his fists in salute.
"how's it going?"
Fang asked.
"The overall situation is settled."
Wu Yidao summed it up in four words, and then began to introduce the battle situation: "Almost three hours have passed since the start of the attack. In the first hour, Dao Zun's men assassinated the foreign generals. After an hour, Dao Zun Some people withdrew from the foreign camp, and then the firearms battalion began to attack with all their might. The ensuing battle was brutal, and the foreigners knew what they were facing, so they resisted fiercely."
"However, because of the collapse of the command system and the fact that they were caught off guard, victory was actually doomed from the very beginning. Now the battalions deliberately opened some openings to allow the rout of foreigners to escape. The cavalry on the periphery are waiting, as long as they escape Come out and wipe them out."
"well done."
Fang Jie commented on this point.
As Liao Sheng said just now, even if hundreds of foreigners gather together, relying on the power of platooning guns can cause great damage to the soldiers of the Black Banner Army. Therefore, San Jinhou changed his strategy at the last moment and ordered all armies and battalions to consciously open some openings in the encirclement circle, so that those foreigners felt that they still had a way out. In the choice between a desperate battle and a narrow escape, in fact, most people will choose the latter.
After the foreigners began to flee, the ending also began.
It is the light cavalry who break through the enemy's line of defense, but the large-scale attack relies on infantry. Then the cavalry began to take charge of the peripheral cleanup. For the fleeing enemies in embarrassment, chasing and killing them from behind was the cavalry's favorite way of fighting.
"When collecting the corpses, do not leave a brother behind."
Fang Jie said as he walked, "These brothers have traveled more than ten thousand miles to follow me here from the Central Plains. If they are not passionate men, they can choose to escape this war. But they didn't, not even a single complaint. .”
Wu Yidao sighed, Fang Jie was always so different.
If it were someone else, they would already be immersed in joy. According to the proportion of battle losses, the casualties of the Black Banner Army are very good compared to the foreigners. If someone else was leading the army, they might have cheered happily to victory at this time. But Fang Xie would not, every time after the war, he would not show joy, never.
On the battlefield, there has never been a war in which no one dies.
Fang Jie's focus was always on those casualties.
"I will arrange it properly."
Wu Yiyi said softly.
"Um."
Fang Jie nodded: "The bones of the brothers are buried in other lands, and the bodies of these brothers cannot be transported back to their hometowns, but they must not be treated badly."
After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, and looked back at Wu Yidao: "Send someone to deliver a message to Mu Guangling, I want to see him."
…
…
When Fang Jie appeared in front of Xiulunsi again, the old man seemed to be 70% dead. It was already difficult to see the performance of a person alive on him, he sat there motionless, like a zombie. But Kirkbo, who was sitting opposite him, seemed very happy.
These are two abnormal people.
One is heartbroken, the other loses to madness.
"Does he look like an idiot to you?"
Seeing Fang Xie come in, Kekebo pointed to Xiulunsi and asked.
"Don't pretend to be crazy and stupid in front of me, your end is already doomed."
Fang Jie said coldly, and sat down on the chair: "The grievance between the two of you has nothing to do with me, and you don't need to pretend like this, whether you are like him or pretend to be crazy, you are more dead than him." Not much slower."
Kirkbo was taken aback, then stopped smiling.
"Do you think you can avoid torture by pretending to be crazy?"
Fang Jie looked at Ke Kebo: "I don't need to torture you."
A man came in from the outside, wearing a cyan gown that was already a little whitish. The face of this middle-aged man is indifferent to the world, but since he has entered the war, it is impossible to be indifferent. His name is Zhuo Buyi, he is a person whom Fang Xie doesn't know very well, but he is trustworthy.
Fang Jie didn't ask about Mr. Zhuo's past, because everyone needs to keep a little secret.
"I've been through more hopeless situations than this."
Sullens suddenly raised his head, looked at Fang Jie and said, "When the empire was in darkness, I was in prison. During those days, I was tortured every day, but I never gave in. Before you and When I was speaking, there was one sentence that I thought was right. That is the nation... Although I intend to betray the empire, it is to save my life. Now, I am still a member of the empire after all. Anything I tell you is hurting my nation."
Fang Jie couldn't help laughing: "It's ridiculous to be righteous."
He looked at Zhuo Buyi: "Thank you."
Zhuo Buyi nodded, and then went to the opposite side of Hurons.
Fang Jie got up and left without saying a word.
Outside the camp, Chen Dingnan was already waiting.
"Have the men and horses been sent out?"
Fang asked.
Chen Dingnan quickly replied: "My lord, the troops have already been dispatched. If there is no accident, Chen Qianshan's team will be able to withdraw by this time the day after tomorrow."
Fang Jie nodded: "Except for the team on duty, all the teams are resting. Although the battle didn't take long, all the armies traveled long distances to come here. Work harder and dispatch 10,000 cavalry, Searching Malan Mountain like a carpet, there are bound to be many foreign deserters, and they don’t need to be caught, they will be executed on the spot.”
He turned his head to look at Liao Sheng: "Send Xiaoqi School to post notices in the surrounding counties and counties. Anyone who sees foreigners deserting soldiers will be rewarded with five taels of silver, and those who bring foreigners' heads will be rewarded with ten taels of silver. The silver was taken from the captured silver of Hurons, and half of the remaining silver was distributed to the soldiers of the army, and the remaining half was divided into two batches, one was used to buy military rations, and the other was sent to the Phoenix Terrace. Lan Dingdong."
"Here."
Liao Sheng agreed.
"Before meeting Mu Guangling, I need to meet Wei An first."
Fang Jie stopped and looked up at the sky.
"See you tonight."
