Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 275

Five hundred people were lost in the First World War, and 2000% of them were lost. Although they killed more enemies, Luo Cheng still had a headache.This is the first battle. If there are a few more battles in the future, wouldn't his group of [-] men be exhausted?

"Wei Jishi, you said that I can recruit 500 people from the civilian husband's group, is it feasible?"

Although Wei Zheng is a Taoist priest who has been wandering for more than ten years, he is very familiar with official documents and laws. He almost didn't think about it. He said, "Of course, it is wartime and it is considered an enemy. With such a large reduction in personnel, it is feasible to replenish soldiers from the militia.”

In other words, if it is not a war, even if it is necessary to replenish soldiers, there must be a set of very cumbersome procedures.But now it is wartime, they are still above the enemy's territory, of course everything is kept simple and cheap.

The experienced Qi Biao and Shi Meng also nodded in agreement with Wei Zheng's words, indeed.

"That's good, now select [-] strong people from the Minzhuang to join the regiment to make up for the losses of each battalion." Luo Chengma said.

As for the recruits, they can only be regarded as temporary government soldiers. Whether they can stay after the war has to be approved by the higher authorities, and Luo Cheng has no control over these.

After victory, Luo Cheng was not in a hurry to move on.

Nor did he retreat.

Instead, let people continue to strengthen the camp, and then wait for most of the First Army in place.

Before setting off, Luo Yi had said that he would be able to join him in ten days. Now that he has been out for twelve days, Luo Yi should be arriving soon.Even if there is a delay, he should get his letter for help.

They retreated rashly, lost their barracks, lost another 500 troops just now, and lost a lot of arrows. If they want to encounter the Qingqi of the Goguryeo brigade again, it is really hard to say the result.

Fortunately, Luo Yi came very quickly.

Luo Yi did waste some time in Huaiyuan Town, mainly because of Yu Wenhuaji, who easily let Luo Cheng off that day, but came to look for him the next day. Hearing that Brother Luo Cheng had left, he went to find Luo Cheng art.

He wanted Luo Yi to speak up and ask Luo Shixin to be his adopted son.

Luo Yi also doesn't like Yu Wenhuaji very much, although he used to be a palace guard in the Qinwei Mansion, he doesn't like this man's frivolity.After finally getting rid of Yu Wenhuaji, he immediately led his troops northward.

But it was a few days behind the original plan.

After leaving Baili in Huaihua, he received a letter from Luo Cheng asking for help.

Luo Cheng said that he met three thousand Goguryeo Qingqi, and Luo Yi was startled. He immediately abandoned the infantry and Minzhuang, and rushed to the rescue with only four thousand cavalry.

A hundred miles away, Luo Yi only took one day to arrive.

From a distance, Luo Yi found the Sui army's Qingqi scouts on patrol. After meeting each other, he realized that Luo Cheng had not only not been swallowed by Goguryeo Qingqi, but also counterattacked and severely damaged Goguryeo.

"Beheaded more than [-] levels, and captured more than a hundred?"

Luo Yi was taken aback.

An officer behind him frowned even more, "Luo Cheng is too courageous, how dare he falsely report his achievements?"

In his mind, under normal circumstances, [-] infantry and [-] civilians will meet [-] light cavalry in the wild, and there will be no city to defend. Yu, captured more than a hundred enemies, wouldn't it mean that two-thirds of the three thousand Qingqi were killed by him?
how is this possible.

Goguryeo Qingqi dared to take the initiative to attack, so is it a mob?

The scout's neck was stuck, "How can the captain slander us and obliterate our military exploits? It's not a lie. When the captain arrived at the camp, he saw the pickled and sealed Goguryeo head there, and looked at the captured horses and weapons, or asked him in person. Isn't it clear when you take the prisoners?"

The captain chuckled, "That's natural."

Luo Yi believed it somewhat, and Luo Cheng was not so bold as to dare to make a false report.

"Tell me, could it be that Luo Cheng and the others met a village, slaughtered them, and pretended to be Goguryeo Qingqi?"

Although this place is where the two countries meet, there are years of fighting, resulting in a no-man's land, but there will still be some refugees living in this gap.

"A village of 3000 people? Impossible. Besides, aren't there still prisoners alive?"

Luo Yi said, if Luo Cheng kills the good and pretends to be meritorious, why should he keep the captives?

"Let's go, it will be clear when you look at it."

Luo Yi rushed to the barracks, and immediately asked Luo Cheng to take them to see the heads, the prisoners, and the capture after they met.

The leader and the prisoners hadn't seen it yet, but Luo Yi and other officers saw a lot of horse meat first. The weather was fine, and the horse meat was cut into long strips and was drying in the sun.

"So much horse meat?"

"Well, in the previous battle, the Goguryeo people died a lot of horses. Except for about [-] good horses, about [-] horses were killed or injured. There is still so much stewed horse meat, so I was afraid it would be spoiled, so I dried it while eating it.”

With nearly 60 horses, even if one horse takes three hundred catties of meat, this is not 100 catties?There are still [-] people in this camp, and each person has to share more than [-] catties of horse meat.

A school lieutenant couldn't help but said, "Damn, we were worried that you would be swallowed alive by Goguryeo people. We traveled so fast that we didn't even catch our breath. We set off at four o'clock and ran a hundred miles for a day. You guys Fortunately, I am here to eat horse meat leisurely."

Luo Cheng smiled and said, "It seems that we are quite leisurely now, but it was extremely dangerous before. In this battle, we shot 20 arrows alone, killing more than 100 soldiers and losing more than 300 horses. More than [-] pieces were missing. It can be said that we all worked hard with our heads tucked into the waistband of our trousers. Now we have rested for a day, and the blood-stained clothes have just been changed."

Luo Yi stretched out his hand and patted Luo Cheng's shoulder, "It's really not easy, look at the head and the prisoners."

More than [-] heads have all been pickled and sealed with lime, and packed in a large wooden box made in a hurry. On the other side, there are many captured battle flags, officers' heads, and piles of weapons.

"Where are the captives?"

After seeing the head, Luo Yi continued to interrogate the captives non-stop.

Half a day later, Luo Yi left the camp and remained silent.

"Go and see the wounded."

After they came out of the wounded barracks, Luo Yi entered the tent of the Chinese army and directly praised Luo Cheng and other soldiers of the first regiment.

"Good job, you played the prestige of our first army. I didn't expect that the first battle of our left-wing first army to conquer the east was actually fought by you, and it was so beautiful. Two thousand infantry vs. three thousand Qing cavalry. To be able to achieve a battle loss ratio of five hundred to two thousand is amazing, and even I, Luo Yi, admire it very much. Luo Cheng, I will personally report your achievements to Linshuo Palace in Zhuo County, and ask for credit for you!"

"The captured horses and weapons will be left to you to replenish." Luo Yi said very generously. "You added 500 people from Minzhuang, I don't think so."

"In this way, I will supplement you with 500 men from other battalions."

After thinking for a while, Luo Yi said again, "Don't wait for the infantry behind, I'll give you five hundred from the four thousand cavalry I brought."

In this way, Luo Cheng's infantry regiment actually had a thousand cavalry and a thousand infantry.The [-] cavalry brought by Luo Yi were divided into four regiments, and each regiment was actually ten hundred-man cavalry.As for Luocheng's infantry regiment, it turned out to be [-] cavalry, [-] infantry, and [-] civilians.

A school captain said that this is not appropriate. After all, their four cavalry regiments only have [-] cavalry, and if they give Luo Cheng [-] cavalry now, then they are missing [-] cavalry.

"If you have the ability to win such a beautiful battle like Luo Cheng, then I will give you the same reinforcement." In a word, the general riding a regiment was speechless.

Even if he brings a thousand cavalry, he dare not say that he will be able to break through three thousand Goguryeo Qingqi, and kill two-thirds of them.

Thinking about it this way, this Luo Cheng is really a fierce man.
