Kou Ji was stunned when he heard Zhu Neng's words.
Zhu Neng said with a sullen face: "As long as I'm alive, I don't want to see the Iron Harrier slaughter me Da Song soldiers again."
Kou Ji pondered for a moment, "He doesn't have enough money, we can help him get it up first."
Zhu Neng nodded and did not speak any more.
On the battlefield.
The Iron Harrier fell into a siege on all sides.
There was no need for Zhu Neng to deliberately give orders, the army formation slowly turned into an iron barrel formation, and besieged the iron Harrier.
The Song army adopted the tactics of crowds to destroy the Iron Harrier outside Yumen Pass.
"Go! Go! Go and let Ye Li beg and lead the troops out to help."
Li Yuanhao thundered and shouted on the head of the city.
Yeli Yuqitou decisively left the city and rushed out of Yumen Pass with the cavalry of the Yeli tribe.
Chaos.
A very chaotic war started at Yumen Gate.
Zhu Neng ordered the soldiers and horses on both wings and the cavalry behind him to rush up and stop the cavalry led by Ye Li Yuqi.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses piled up at the gate of Yumen Pass, fighting each other.
It is difficult for the cavalry led by Ye Li Yuqi to charge effectively in such a chaotic battle.
Their greatest advantage is mobility.
So they can have a certain advantage in field battles and tough battles.
Therefore, the soldiers and horses of Xixia and Liao seldom care about the gains and losses of one city and one place.
So they like to drag the Song army into the wilderness, or lengthen the Song army's supply line to expand the advantage of the cavalry.
Defensive warfare is not what they are good at.
The huge number of chaos is not what they are good at.
The Iron Harrier rushed into the Song Army's army formation, as if entering the land of no one.
But they can't.
The heavy step armor on Song Jun's body was not paper.
"kill… "
Ye Li Yuqi led the soldiers and horses under his command and smashed for a full three quarters of an hour at Yumen Pass before successfully rescuing an iron harrier.
Then he fought and rescued one by one.
Until he saw the patrol guard's figure, he decisively led the people out of the battlefield.
"Mingjin!"
"withdraw troops!"
After seeing Ye Li Yuqi withdraw from the battlefield, Zhu Neng sighed regretfully and ordered the messenger Mingjin to retreat.
He also wanted to use the patrol guard to drag the soldiers and horses led by Ye Li Yuqi into the chaos, taking the opportunity to kill him.
But after seeing the patrol guard, Ye Li Yuqi retreated decisively without looking back.
Not fooled at all.
"Boom boom boom..."
After the retreat drum sounded.
Zhu Neng led the new army formation composed of soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty and slowly withdrew from the battlefield.
"Boom!"
Li Yuanhao stood on the head of the city, his face gloomy and bleeding.
He waved his fist and banged the crevice of the Yumen gate.
One thousand eight hundred iron Harriers attacked.
Only less than 700 people were rescued.
More than a thousand iron harriers were buried in Yumen Gate.
Their armor and horses were taken away when the Song Army retreated.
Li Yuanhao felt that Xixia's treasury seemed to be moved by Song Jun by one third.
"Those armors will be temporarily stored in your hands. After I take down the Yang Pass and destroy Li Zhaoliang, I will ask you to settle the account!"
Li Yuanhao was secretly ruthless in the city.
Zhu Neng had led the soldiers under him, slowly withdrew from the battlefield and returned to the barracks.
After returning to the barracks.
The wounded soldiers were quickly sent to the place where the military doctors were sitting for treatment.
The bones of the dead soldiers were all placed in the middle of the school field.
The iron Harrier's armor was pulled down all together, and placed in a row under the stage.
The corpses of the iron harrier and the war horse were thrown into a corner of the camp and piled up into a hill.
According to the rules set by Kou Ji after arriving in Shazhou.
Soon someone will bury those corpses into the soil to become fertilizer for the land in Hexi.
Zhu Neng stood on the podium, shouting to the soldiers below the stage.
"In this battle, our army won a big victory! The iron harrier that Li Yuanhao relied on was maimed by us. From now on, the iron harrier will no longer pose any threat to us."
"Win!"
"Win!"
"Wan Sheng!"
The soldiers shouted vigorously.
After the soldiers shouted, Zhu Neng continued: "In this battle, the one who slashed the iron harrier at the first level, enters the third level, gives money and 100 guan... …Slightly wounded soldiers, give them 20 pennies... Anyone who is willing to stay in Hexi, give them a thousand acres of land... Those who have meritorious service who are willing to move to Hexi, record them as officials..."
"Roar!!"
"Roar!"
The soldiers screamed crazy after hearing the words.
An unprecedented generous gift.
Since they joined the army, they have encountered the best gift.
How can they not be excited, how can they not be excited
From a big soldier to a small rich man in an instant, how could they not be excited.
More importantly, Xu Guan is now.
Xu Guan.
As long as there is credit for him, as long as he is willing to stay in Hexi, he can be an official.
Although Hexi is remote, many scholars with lofty ideals are unwilling to stay.
But for these big-head soldiers, it is a rare opportunity.
Being an official is the lifelong dream of many of them.
They don't care where they are.
They have been to remote places, and they have stayed in barren places.
As long as you can be an official.
Their deceased ancestors are waiting for the title, and their wives and children have the opportunity to be shaded.
Although Zhu Neng did not give the soldiers the power to Xu Guan.
But the soldiers did not doubt Zhu Neng's words.
Because few people dared to be in the barracks and broke the trust of tens of thousands of soldiers.
Seeing the soldiers roaring vigorously, Zhu Neng couldn't help but laughed and cursed: "A group of official fans..."
The soldiers were shaken with laughter instantly.
The grief in the barracks has been diminished a lot.
In the laughter of the soldiers, Zhu Neng shouted again: "In addition, the soldiers who participated in the war today will each reward one catty of mutton and two taels of dirty wine..."
"Roar!"
For a moment, the soldiers shouted like crazy.
The shouting was several times louder than before.
There are only a few people who can get credit on the battlefield, and those who lose their lives or get injured are also a few.
So the reward just now is only for a few people.
The soldiers shouted, on the one hand to be happy for their colleagues, on the other hand to give Zhu Neng face.
This time is different, they can all get benefits, and they are naturally happy.
In the shouts of the soldiers, Zhu Neng said: "Okay...Leave a team of soldiers and confine the corpses of their fellow soldiers who died in battle, and the others will go eat meat and drink..."
The soldiers yelled and broke up.
After the soldiers left.
The smile on Zhu Neng's face gradually converged, he looked at the lying corpses on the school field and sighed.
Kou Ji slowly walked to Zhu Neng's side and whispered: "Don't worry... I don't have any other skills, but I still have the skills to let their widows spend the next half of their lives prosperously."
For this, Zhu Neng does not doubt.
After hearing Kou Ji's words, Zhu Neng slowly nodded and said: "It's good, I'm worthy of them."
After a pause, Zhu Neng looked at Kou Ji and said, "Leave their corpses here or send them back?"
Kou Ji earnestly said: "After cremation, it will be buried on the spot. This place will also be the territory of my Song Dynasty, and they are not considered to be buried in other places. In the future, the people of Song Dynasty will take root here, knowing that this land is buried under my father. Soldiers of Song know that this place has the heroic spirit of the Han family."
Kou Ji looked at Zhu Neng and said, "Any place with the heroic spirit of the Han family should be the territory of my Han family."
Zhu Neng was stunned for a moment, and said dumbfounded: "That's a good fight..."
There are many Han souls burying their bones in other countries.
In remote Goryeo, there is a huge Jingguan built by the accumulation of several Han bones.
It still stands in Goryeo today.
After the Korean envoys arrived in the Song Dynasty, they often talked about them, nor did they take pride in them.
Kou Ji heard Zhu Neng's words and smiled calmly: "It doesn't matter... I'm still young..."
Zhu Neng laughed aloud: "That's right..."
After a pause, Zhu Neng asked Kou Ji: "Why do you want to give the officers and soldiers? Aren't you afraid that the civil servants in the court impeach you?"
Kou Ji squinted at Zhu Neng and said with a puzzled expression: "What are you impeaching me? Is it dissatisfied with the soothing agents of the Western Regions granted me by the official? Dissatisfied with the power determined by me?"
Zhu Neng stared in amazement, and said with a wry smile: "I have forgotten this stubbornness, it was me who made a mistake..."
In the past, the Western Regions did not have the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, so the title of the soothing envoy of the Western Regions above Kou Ji's head was a bluff.
But now the Song Dynasty has won the three states in the Western Regions.
Na Kou Ji is a veritable official in Xinjiang.
The military and political power in the three states was seized.
What are some petty officials
Under special circumstances, it is reasonable for a lot of high-ranking officials.
How did the civil servants in the court impeach
Impeach him for abusing the appease power
Then you have to ask other comforters if they agree.
After all, to accuse Kou Ji of abusing the power of the comforter is to touch the power of other comforters.
Who can serve as a comforter, who is not a person with identity and background
One by one, no one cares.
But to use the power of all of them, isn't that looking for abuse
Every member of the second and third ranks, who don't often speak in the court hall on weekdays, do they really have no fighting capacity
Zhu Neng figured out the joints and stopped talking to Kou Ji on this matter.
He can kill the Quartet on the battlefield, but it does not mean that he can intervene in the affairs of Kou Ji's governance of the place.
The two said this casually and returned to the Chinese army's big account.
The documents accompanying the army had cleared the statistics of the battle damage of this battle and reported it to Kou Ji and Zhu Neng.
"Three thousand one hundred and sixty-seven people died, eight thousand and thirty-nine people were injured..."
After seeing the number of casualties, Kou Ji handed the documents in his hand to Zhu Neng, and sighed: "In order to deal with Iron Harrier, you really have lost money... Before the battle, I thought you gave birth to a pair. Bodhisattva hearted.
Now it seems that you are more ruthless than before. "
Zhu Neng took the document and read it carefully. After reading it, he said: "I am so dear to the soldiers, so I made such a big money. The iron harrier is extremely fierce, and keeping the iron harrier will only let them slaughter me. Song more soldiers.
Killing the iron harrier with the blood, of course, will injure many soldiers.
But it protected more soldiers.
You should know the difference. "
Kou Ji nodded slowly.
Treating Iron Harrier, he actually had the same idea as Zhu Neng.
If they can be killed and disabled once, they will never be tolerated to live for the second time.
Although Kou Ji has artillery, muskets, and invincible mines in his hands.
But these things are currently not mass-produced.
The quantity is small.
Can't take care of all the big Song soldiers and horses.
The invincible landmine gun has limitations when used, and its effect is limited when there is no way to let the enemy enter the minefield.
The artillery is extremely heavy and inconvenient to transport.
The mobility is too poor, and it is difficult to appear in every battle with the iron harrier in time.
As for the musket.
It has a powerful lethality and deterrent effect on ordinary light cavalry and pawns.
In the face of Iron Harrier, the lethality is also very limited.
The bullet driven by black powder can hardly penetrate the armor of the iron harrier.
In this battle, there was only one Iron Harrier who died under the gun.
That person was beaten to death by Chen Datou among the guards.
There are many guards, but the sharpshooter is only the head of Chen.
Only Chen's big head can hit the enemy's eye socket with a single blow in the fast movement of both the enemy and the enemy.
"The iron harrier at Yumen Pass has been decimated. It depends on the battle at Yangguan. If the soldiers at Yangguan can eat the iron harrier that raided Yangguan, the iron harrier will no longer be a threat to us."
Zhu Neng put down the official document in his hand and subconsciously looked in the direction of Yangguan.
Kou Ji also subconsciously followed to look at Yangguan.
…
Yang Guan.
In the forest of banners on the wall a few meters high.
Inside and outside Guancheng, it was deserted.
The wind whizzed past.
Wind and sand are everywhere.
Even if the spring is already here, there is still not much spring in Yangguan.
Guancheng was full of soldiers, and there was no one in Guancheng.
The soldiers on the city wall, one by one wearing armor and holding a blade, looked at the big dark iron cylinder curiously.
Staring at the big iron tube for a long time, he turned his gaze to the outside of the city again.
Looking at a group of people outside the city wearing common clothes, carrying hoes, pushing carts, burying black iron balls one by one.
The black iron ball is buried in the northwest corner outside the city.
This is the place where people from Yumen Pass must pass.
"Can these things... work?"
The general guarding the city asked with a puzzled face, Gao Yi, the Japanese military captain who came to help them.
Gao Yi stared at the person who buried the black iron ball outside the city for a few moments. In the eyes of the servants of the Kou Mansion, he fumbled for the big iron barrel beside him, and said with emotion: "Can it work? Of course it can. Things are far more powerful than you think."
General Shoucheng was Li Zhaoliang's subordinate, and followed Li Zhaoliang to the Western Regions all the way.
Therefore, I have never seen the power of artillery and invincible mine cannons.
After hearing Gao Yi's words, the defender said with a solemn expression: "Gao Yi, we are also colleagues. We used to stir horses in the same pot. Don't lie to me.
Yangguan is very important to us.
Once Yangguan is lost, General Li will be in danger in Suzhou and Ganzhou.
I haven't seen what the soldiers in Shazhou City look like when they lack food and clothing.
But you have seen it.
You should understand what they will become once the grain is cut off.
Do you really want General Lee and their lives to be placed on this thing? "
