The Soul of the Han Dynasty in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 694 Proud of You
The teenagers around Shi Xian were worried that Shi Lang, who was in a mess around him, would not be able to hear them, so several hundred robes shouted in unison: "Brother Shi Lang is doing well, your brother is proud of you!"

Hearing his brother's words, Shi Lang was so excited that tears filled his eyes at this moment. He waved to the guard camp and continued to beat the horse and whip the horse to embark on the journey.

Changing the trajectory of his life, the 17-year-old Shi Lang has already devoted himself to the battlefield against alien invasion and killed several enemies with his hands. Is there any possibility for him to become a traitor in the future?

This is not too important anymore, a cavalry corporal is slowly promoted after battles, there are too many uncertainties, and the future matters must only be considered when Shi Lang is still alive.

Unexpectedly, the Qing army refused to fight the "Red Banner Army" at all, and was almost defeated at the first touch. Huang Han, who had painstakingly arranged for more than a month, was actually extremely depressed.

It can be seen that the cavalry is too important. The pacification of Liaodong and the conquest of Horqin, Harqin, Tumed and other Mongolian tribes also required a large number of cavalry to complete the raid and encirclement to deal them a devastating blow.

Just defeating it is of no use, and it won't take long for the Tartars and Jiannu to make a comeback.

Huang Han knew the strength of the Ming army stationed in Shanxi and Xuanda, and he knew the virtues of these soldiers. He never expected that Yang Sichang, who was in Xuanfu, would be able to seal the city and pass the tens of thousands of Qing cavalry who fled, and sent orders for the cavalry to pursue. Just a hundred miles away.

With the status quo of the "Red Banner Army", the infantry and artillery are similar to modern firearms troops, which are separated from the Tartars and Jiannu by an era.

However, the advantage of the cavalry is not very obvious. The main reason is that the self-generating blunderbuss and the Minigun are single-shot, which can only deal a one-time blow to the enemy cavalry. The hit rate of firearms in cavalry battles is doomed to be low.

The cavalry of the "Red Banner Army" faced the Qing army's hedging with an absolute superiority in numbers, and then they would face a cruel duel with cold weapons.

However, most of the cavalry of the "Red Banner Army" who used hot weapons were not as skilled as the Tartars and Jiannu, and even if they had a fearless spirit of sacrifice, they were not enough to win.

Therefore, Huang Han decided not to chase after the poor, and beheaded and killed some of the Tartars and Jiannu who could not form an array and were completely surrounded and annihilated.

The battlefield where the cavalry confronted was extremely tragic. There were two or three thousand fallen troops on both sides, and too many Tartars and Jiannu who had fallen from their horses rolled and wailed on the ground.

The medical soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" are not saviors. Their first goal is to find the wounded soldiers of the "Red Banner Army", and then treat the defected Han army of Wu Xiang.

Wakda, who had fallen against Wu Sangui's Iron Armored Ding team, was quite unlucky and was trampled by more than one horse. When he was discovered by the Ming army, his chest had already been trampled flat.

Wu Sangui's condition was not very good either. When Wu Xiang found him, he had passed out and his lower body was bloody.

Wu Xiang thought that Wu Sangui was dead, and she was in chaos, holding her son and crying so loudly.

Fortunately, the medical officer of the "Red Flag Army" who rushed to the battlefield in time found that one of the defecting generals had no vital signs, so he did not give up in a hurry.

Immediately, medical soldiers got on their horses and galloped to inform the established field hospital to reserve beds for surgery. Half an hour later, the chief medical officer Liu Dashou started the surgery himself, and used the big trick of blood transfusion to keep his life alive.

Practice makes perfect. Liu Dashou has treated hundreds of wounded and sick patients in the past ten years. The surgical technique should be No. 1 in the world today. If he can't survive under his treatment, it should mean that the gods are also helpless.

Although Wu Xiang was in a hurry, he was grateful to the "Red Banner Army", because he saw at least seven or eight "Red Banner Army" teenagers asking the medical officer to draw blood in order to save his son.

Such an unheard of life-saving spell stunned Wu Xiang, and seeing the blood transfused son's pale face gradually turn a blush, Wu Xiang was convinced.

Wu Sangui's life was so hard that he didn't die on the operating table, but because one leg was trampled to pieces by a war horse, Liu Dashou couldn't keep it. After asking Wu Xiang for permission, he had his leg amputated...

If Wu Sangui survives the infection period and recovers well in the future, he can leave the wheelchair and rely on crutches to walk, but Liu Dashou and several senior medical officers are not very optimistic, because Wu Sangui also has multiple fractures, whether to avoid high paraplegia It's hard to say now.

Wu Xiang, who thought her son would die for sure, saw his son miraculously woke up despite losing a leg, and knelt down on the ground to thank the gods and Buddhas in the sky.

The plan to attack Shuozhou City was not out of shape, but it was not completed satisfactorily. The main reason was that they did not eliminate the vitality of Jiannu, which made them hurt.

But the seizure was satisfactory, and the materials stored in the entire Shuozhou city became trophies, which were worth a lot.

Now we are faced with 10,000+ Han people who need to be resettled, and the food seized in Shuofang City can at most maintain the basic survival of these people for three to four months, which means that March is the time when they need to work hard and work hard on spring plowing to run out of food.

In fact, the problem is far more than that. The total number of newly admitted guards and reserve guards has reached 40, and their family size is more than [-]. The refugees who have lost food are not just hundreds of thousands here in Shuofang City. There will be millions of Han people in need of relief.

Preliminary estimates need to solve the food problem of 300 million people before we can barely stabilize Shanxi. The food in our hands can last until the end of February. Now we have to take out some refugees and bring in food to reduce the pressure.

To ensure the food and clothing of 300 million people before next year's autumn harvest, at least 400 million shi of grain is needed. Attacking Shanxi merchants is on the agenda. These big families will hoard food in their hands.

The entire Shanxi officialdom, no matter whether it is a scholar or a military general, even the small officials and low-level military officers guarding the pass have been fed by Shanxi merchants.

This time, when Xuanda and Shanxi were beaten into a mess by Jiannu, the "Red Banner Army" was mobilized to garrison all cities and passes with Shanxi merchant industries.

The Qing army invaded the Kou and poisoned Xuan for more than half a year, but Yang Sichang's men did not make any achievements, just to give others a handle.

In the name of rectifying Shanxi and the Xuan Daming Army, Huang Hanhui gathered defenders from all over Shanxi to Shuozhou City for training. In doing so, he completely destroyed the umbrella of Shanxi merchants.

No matter which dynasty, or even later generations, the rampant evil forces in a place must be related to the inaction of the government, and there must be officials supporting the evil forces.

All the original garrison Ming troops were transferred away, and all the original class officials, officials, and government servants were detained for review. If no one informed the Shanxi merchants, the Shanxi merchants would naturally become blind and deaf.

Tens of thousands of "Red Banner Army" teenagers with impeccable loyalty arrested people in many places at the same time and ransacked their homes. Using the army, the ultimate violent machine, to play with Shanxi merchants is a piece of cake.
