The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 48
After coming down from the city wall, Ding Yi went to the wounded barracks.

Before the war, he designated several barracks to store wounded soldiers. When he arrived, it was a mess and there were wounded everywhere.

They suffered 62 casualties in this battle, including 41 killed and [-] injured.

Most of the dead were spearmen, sword and shield soldiers and other front-line soldiers. The archers suffered relatively small casualties, because most of them were hiding on the roof, and the opponent's bows and arrows could not shoot them. The soldiers shot to death with hatchets, hand spears, etc. at close range.

There are only two doctors in the fort, both of whom were recruited by Zhang Cheng back then. In the past few years, he has brought a few young apprentices, and seven or eight people are busy in it. Don't underestimate these few people. There are no doctors, which shows that Zhang Cheng is more thoughtful than the general generals of the Ming army.

They were also surprised when they saw Ding Yi come in. Many wounded soldiers struggled to get up to see him.

Ding Yi quickly signaled the wounded soldiers not to move.

As he looked over, his eyes turned red. At this time, a soldier in front of him was seriously injured and lost an arm. He must have lost a lot of blood and was unconscious.

"What's this brother's name, does he have any family members?" Ding Yi asked a little medical student.

The little apprentice doctor looked blank, obviously not knowing each other.

"My lord, this is He Tiezhu, as well as my mother-in-law and a three-year-old child." A slightly injured soldier beside him said sadly.

"There are wives and children?" Ding Yi's tone immediately choked up again: "Brothers fought bloody battles against the Tartars for the sake of Daming and their families, and were seriously injured. Dr. Liu and Dr. Zheng, please be sure, please, don't let me go!" Save them at all costs."

The two doctors clasped their fists again and again: "Don't worry, my lord, we will do our best, we will do our best."

"Zhao Dashan."

"I'm humble."

"You have to carefully count the wounded and the brothers who died in battle." Ding Yi said sadly: "All the brothers who died in battle must be buried properly. For those who have families, I swear to God that I will support their families for a lifetime."

"If you are seriously injured and can no longer go to the battlefield, you will be taken care of as an official from now on."

"In short, we can't let any brother feel cold. They fought bloody battles for the country and for this official. I should take care of them. From now on, everyone should be treated as a family."

"My lord is benevolent and righteous, I will take the place of my brothers, thank you my lord." Zhao Dashan also choked up.

"My lord is benevolent and righteous." The brothers in the wounded barracks cried loudly.

Master Ding said that he would take care of their families and them for the rest of their lives, which was something that soldiers never thought about.

In the past, their life and death had nothing to do with being an official.

"I am willing to die for my lord." Among the wounded soldiers, someone suddenly raised his hand and shouted.

Zhao Dashan was taken aback, who else would take my word for it?Looking intently, it turned out to be that bastard Yao Xinhan.

This guy was slightly injured when he was hit on the arm by the falling wall stone when he used explosives to blow up the Hou Jinbing at the pier fortress, so he was also here.

As soon as Yao Xinhan took the lead, someone in the room immediately agreed, and then more and more people shouted wildly.

"Willing to die for the adults."

"Willing to die for the adults."

Although it is a wounded barracks, morale is still like a rainbow.

Zhao Dashan was convinced, looking at Ding Yi's eyes, he adored him even more.

Ding Yi didn't just come here to act. That night, a family member of a sergeant came here to visit his injured husband.

"Lord Ding is really righteous. Jiang Guo, who died in battle, just got a tael of silver, a stone of rice."

"I heard that every month from now on, Jiang Guo's wife and children will be taken care of by Master Ding from now on."

"One tael of silver and one stone of rice per month?" All the wounded soldiers in the room listened with disbelief.

"Old Qi's family also has a broken leg, and there will be no more wars in the future. I heard that it is five yuan and one stone of rice."

"Master Ding also said that it is temporary at this time, and after a few days, we will decide how much to distribute. It will only be more or less. At that time, an official document will be announced to the whole castle, and everyone will testify together. As long as Master Ding is alive, everyone will be supported. , a hundred years to live up to."

When several family members and wives said it, all the wounded in the room choked up.

The room is full of Lord Ding's benevolence and righteousness, Lord Ding's long life, and various voices of prayer.

At noon, Xu Wei confirmed that the Houjin soldiers had indeed retreated, and the fort was full of joy.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the fast horse sent to Ningyuan happened to return to the fort, and brought Yuan Chonghuan's order.

Yuan meant that Zhang Cheng's good news, as long as he saw the real head of the tartar, he would honor it all.

Everyone was overjoyed.

This means that Ding Yi will really become the acting defense officer, the team officer.

And this post-war contribution is even greater, but it is generally impossible to advance to three levels in a short period of time, but it is definitely no problem to become a regular defense officer.

Ding Yi immediately wrote Feng Jiebao again, and this time with more than 200 Tartar heads, he sent Song Fei to Ningyuan.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, all the statistics also came to Ding Yi.

In this battle, 260 and 220 Tartars were killed, and the complete head [-] was obtained. (Some heads were destroyed, but there is really no way.)
Adding the previous fourteen, there are a total of 242 heads.

In addition, 36 pairs of iron armor, 48 pieces of mail armor, and 370 pairs of cotton armor were obtained. (Many Tartars wear double cotton armor)
Other swords, guns, bows and arrows are useless, because the Tartars retreated in a hurry, and there were hundreds of unmanned horses left outside the city. It is estimated that they were all killed by Ha Qisuo, and there were more than 30 shield chariots, which were much cheaper. Ding Yi.

More than 3000 taels of silver were collected from war horses and tartars, which greatly eased Ding Yi's financial pressure.

Ding Yi inherited more than 25000 taels of silver from Zhang Cheng.

Before the war, he spent a lot of money, hired everyone to dig holes, and paid wages to boost morale. A total of 700 taels were paid.

After the war, pensions were issued to the wounded and killed, and more than 900 taels were issued.

Originally, he only gave one tael of silver and one stone of rice to those killed in battle, but after thinking about it, he added a one-time ten taels of resettlement allowance.

Once in and out, the silver in his hand is still [-].

It sounds a lot, but it is far from enough for Ding Yi's plan.

Zhang Cheng has three boats in his hands, which are good things that can make money.

Zhang Cheng doesn't have much business acumen, he can earn more than 2 yuan in the past few years. If Ding Yi were to do it, it would definitely be more than that.

He now hopes that the more start-up capital he has, the better.

If you have money, you can have food, and if you have money, you can explode soldiers.

So now he wished he had 20, 30, 300 million.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, the fallen soldiers were also buried, and Ding Yi took everyone to pay homage. After all the work was done, Ding Yi returned to the defense official's office.

Zhao Dashan followed him like a follower.

"Why are you still following me?" Ding Yi was inexplicable: "Aren't you going to take a rest?"

Zhao Dashan smiled foolishly and shook his head: "I'm not tired, so I don't need to rest."

Ding Yi thought for a while: "Find some women to boil some water, I want to take a bath and sleep."

"Okay." Zhao Dashan thought for a while, then turned and left.

As a modern man, Ding Yi hasn't taken a shower for a few days, and he can't take it anymore. In the past two days, in order to fight, he only slept for three or four hours a day, and he didn't sleep for a day and a night, so now he just wants to take a bath. Get a good night's sleep.

But when he saw Zhao Dashan's expression, he always felt that something was wrong.

This guy and Zhang Jing are now in trouble all day long.

He wanted to call Zhao Dashan to stop, but Zhao Dashan left happily.
