Han Shizu

Chapter 94
With the passage of time, the officers and soldiers of the battalions, capitals, and teams of the Longqi Army returned one after another, and basically lost more than half of them, and some were even wiped out.

Seeing Guo Rong's return, Liu Chengyou breathed a sigh of relief.However, he only led less than [-] soldiers from a battalion under the First Army. The battalion commander died in the chaos of the army and was taken over by him. In the final chaos, he was saved.

Together with Guo Rong, there are more than 1000 Jin soldiers, and some of them are young. It seems that Guo Rong understands Liu Chengyou's intentions and has not received the order. The matter of recruiting Jin soldiers has already been done first. .

"His Royal Highness!" Guo Rong, covered in embarrassment, saluted Liu Chengyou, his voice was a little hoarse, and he had broken his voice at night.

"Aren't you hurt?" Liu Chengyou looked around Guo Rong and asked.

Liu Chengyou has basically restrained the emotions he had released since last night, his expression was as calm as usual, but the concern in his tone was beyond words.

"Thank you, Your Highness for your concern!" Guo Rong replied, then pointed to the Jin soldiers who came with him, and whispered: "These soldiers are all elites of the Shi Jin Imperial Army, and their fighting strength is not bad. After the battle last night, I have regarded you as a favor. Lord, what is the meaning of the service, you only need to be well appeased, and you can use it for yourself. They have small relatives who are with the army, and they are mostly scattered on the battlefield. If you can find them, you can accept them. On the battlefield, there should be some Fewer Jin soldiers scattered."

Hearing this, Liu Chengyou also replied in a low voice: "Luo Yangang has already gathered a part of it, and I have also sent someone to comfort him."

"His Royal Highness is wise!" It is very rare that Guo Rong even said a compliment: "The last general has returned, and there are many Yan troops who are also cleaning up the battlefield. Your Highness must be careful!"

"No need to worry, Gu has reached an agreement with the generals of the Yan army, and they have all expressed their obedience!" Liu Chengyou said.

Guo Rong thought for a while and said, "Most of Yan's soldiers are based in Youyan and Liaodong. It is easy to collect, but difficult to serve. However, now they are rootless and have nothing to rely on, so it is easy to master. However, Your Highness must Think early!"

"I know this in my mind, and I will deal with it in the future!" After thinking for a while, Liu Chengyou nodded and said later.

Having said that, Liu Chengyou summoned Ma Quanyi and Murong Yanzhao, put them in charge, and placed those Jin soldiers.

Afterwards, Liu Chengyou looked at a middle-aged man standing beside Guo Rong: "Who is this?"

He has a burly appearance, a tall body, a long beard, and is quite tolerant, but he looks very weak now. He is simply wearing a long gown, and there are many scars that cannot be concealed. It is not like a battlefield wound, but more like A newly released prisoner.

"His Royal Highness, this is the former Inspector of Cizhou, Li Hu, and Duke Li Weizhen." Hearing the question, Guo Rong immediately introduced: "Previously, I assisted Liang Hui, the great commander of Cizhou, to fight the Khitan in the south. When the Liao Emperor passed Fuyang, he denounced the villain. He was arrested and imprisoned. He was tortured several times. He was scarred and unyielding. Until this night, in the chaotic army, he was rescued by a righteous man and encountered a late general.

Looking at Li Huan a little surprised, no matter what he was thinking, he kept his demeanor and bowed his hands to him: "It turns out that Li Shijun is in the face, so lonely, this person is polite. The public's reputation has long been heard. Yearning for it!"

"His Royal Highness's prestige is like thunder, and I can see it today. Sure enough, the young hero, the dragon and the phoenix, the form of heaven and man!" Li Hu seemed very calm, probably speaking from the heart, it was obviously touted, but he didn't let it go. Liu Chengyou felt a little flattering.

The business chatted for a while, and Liu Chengyou immediately asked Li Chongju to arrange for the two to go to rest, but he could see that Guo Rong and Li Hu were not in good condition. Li Hu was still seriously injured, and he was almost holding on. All you need is a good rest.

And Liu Chengyou, although drowsiness and exhaustion continued to hit him, but with the good news from all sides, he always maintained a weak excitement.

Not long after, Xiang Xun, whom Liu Chengyou was thinking about silently, also returned. Together with the few second and third armies, they immediately brought people up to meet them. Liu Chengyou always remembered the situation of these two armies, and the last one. During the charge on the field, it was completely at the risk of casualties and risking his life that he had to break into the Liao camp and become the last straw that crushed the Khitan army.
You don't need to look closely to know that the situation of the two armies is very bad. There are many wounded soldiers, and almost everyone has wounds on their bodies.Greeting people to resettle, he simply asked, but Liu Chengyou's mood plummeted.

The soldiers who rushed to the camp with the two commanders last night had [-]-[-]% casualties, and the rest, even if you add the scattered soldiers of the two armies gathered by Liu Chengyou, I am afraid that the total will be in the early [-]s.

You must know that the Longqi Army has expanded its army several times since it went south, and the second and third armies have already surpassed the number of [-] troops.

"After the Liao army was defeated, and the chaos spread, the soldiers were also scattered. I and Sun Commander tried their best to gather some brothers and cut a bloody road to the south." Xiang Xun's eyes were a little red. , said to Liu Chengyou: "The commander Wang of the Third Army, when attacking the village, took the lead and died for the flow vector, and only found his body in the corpse after dawn."

"Commander Sun, with the sword in front, beheaded more than [-] Khitan Hu prisoners. The sword was cut to the rolling edge, and his body was wounded several times until he fell into a coma. Before losing consciousness, he still shouted 'kill Hu'. His nephew Sun Han , led his subordinates to carry the enemy several times, was stabbed in the lower abdomen, his stomach was rotten, and he slashed a Khitan general who was defending the camp, and finally shot and killed it with random arrows.”

After hearing Xiang Xun's report, Liu Chengyou fell silent, the kind of autistic.

For a long time, only the First Army formed by Ma Quanyi had been regarded by Liu Chengyou as his confidant, and the First Army, which had undertaken various tasks since going south, had never let him down.

But in this battle, the performance of the second and third armies was beyond his expectations.And the two commanders that Liu Chengyou disliked because he complained and even contradicted him from time to time, which he didn't like very much, also refreshed Liu Chengyou's senses for the first time.

In fact, since last night, when Sun Li led someone to carry out his order without hesitation, he was already surprised.As for his nephew, Han, he was punished a while ago for competing with Yang Ye, and was blacklisted by Liu Chengyou, but on the battlefield, at the most difficult moment, he was so brave.

Thinking of these two uncles and nephews, one death and one serious injury, a trace of complex feelings flooded into my heart.Liu Chengyou couldn't help recalling that Liu Zhiyuan had mentioned it to him when he was rectifying the Longqi Army.On the battlefield, some old soldiers can give their lives to him
Liu suppressed the turbulence in his heart, Liu Chengyou slowly walked to the stretcher beside Sun Li, who was still unconscious, stared at the pale face stained with blood, stared for a long time, took a deep breath, Liu Chengyou lifted it up. He pointed and commanded sternly: "I must, I must rescue Commander Sun!"

"Send an order to find the corpses of all the fallen soldiers to Gu!" With his hands behind his back, he looked south again and stared for a while, then Liu Chengyou raised his hand and instructed again solemnly.

There was a lot of fuss and toss for a long time, and then the chaotic scene was sorted out.The camp to the north also continued to expand, and even touched the large dense forest in the northwest of Luan City.In the huge camp, there are quite a few pictures of relatives crying while hugging each other, but most of them are partings of life and death.
In the process of cleaning up the battlefield, there was also another wave. Whether it was the Yan soldiers, the Jin soldiers, or the laborers, there were fights and fights.After all, the Khitans left too much treasure. Just stand on the river beach, walk a few steps from south to north, and you can always find something good.

Fortunately, Liu Chengyou had foresighted and informed those generals in advance. While sending troops to suppress him, he also kept making promises to defuse the commotion.

Of course, while he was very busy, Liu Chengyou still did not forget to send Han Tong, who had rested, to lead his troops north to investigate the situation of the Liao army.Although it is unlikely, it has to be wary of killing a carbine. After all, there are quite a few Khitan troops retreating north.

Liu Chengyou kept reminding himself not to get carried away.
