Chapter 16 Post-war
When approaching the Qiang people's team, Dong Zhuo replaced the bow and arrow in his hand with a big knife, and the enemy was cut off the horse one after another. Seeing this scene, the soldiers in Xiliang roared excitedly. The commander was brave, and the soldiers were encouraged and naturally killed.
Subsequently, Dong Zhuo and Xiliang's soldiers let Jia Rong see what is called a fierce general and a hundred war veteran, which is a completely one-sided massacre; Dong Zhuo led the Xiliang soldiers to kill the Qiang people without fighting back.
The Qiang people temporarily retreated, and a group of new soldiers who had just experienced the battlefield lay on the wall and enjoyed the feeling of rebirth.
When the messengers announced the victory of the war and the Qiang people retreated, Jia Rong ignored the knife wounds on his body and carried Li Xi's bloody body on his back. Li Hu followed him and came to a wilderness step by step to bury Li Xi on the spot.
Jia Rong choked and said to a grave bag that had just been raised on the ground, "Brother Li Xi, we will remember you. You are a heroic soldier, and the soldiers of Lijia Village will always be proud of you."
As he spoke, Jia Rong cried again and continued, "In fact, he also blamed me. If I hadn't told you to kill the enemy on the battlefield, you wouldn't have followed me to the battlefield and you wouldn't have lost your life."
Li Hu, who cried bitterly, walked to Jia Rong's side and kept telling the sadness in his heart and his reluctance to give up to Li Xi. Although the person he really admired was Jia Rong, when Li Xi really did not sacrifice his life to save himself, Li Hu was deeply moved.
It was not until dark that Jia Rong stood up and said to Li Xi's grave, "Brother, you can rest here first. I will definitely take you back to Lijia Village in the future."
After saying that, he bowed to Li Xi's grave and staggered back to the barracks with Li Hu.
As soon as he returned to the barracks, a soldier came forward and said respectfully to Jia Rong, "General Guo asked you to see him as soon as you come back."
I saw Jia Rong's martial arts on the battlefield today, as well as his affection and righteousness, which deeply admired the soldiers from Hechi County. This is
Worship from the bottom of the heart is not mixed with any other factors; in the hearts of soldiers, only brave, affectionate and righteous people can win their respect and love.
Jia Rong didn't notice this. He nodded to the soldier who was passing the message and said, "Well, I know. You go down."
The soldier gave a military salute to Jia Rong and retreated.
He came to Guo Yan's tent. After the notification of the messenger, Jia Rong saw Guo Yan.
Jia Rong hurriedly saluted Guo Yan and said, "Jia Rong, meet General Guo."
Guo Yan walked to Jia Rong's side, reached out to help him up, and said, "You don't have to be so polite."
Jia Rong has a feeling of flattery. Although he has consulted Guo Yan about martial arts at ordinary times, Guo Yan has always been very indifferent to people and has never seen him so enthusiastic about whom.
It seemed to see Jia Rong's doubts. Guo Yan walked to his seat and then motioned Jia Rong to sit down and talk. He said unhurryly, "Today, your performance is very good. I inspected the whole garrison and roughly calculated that only the soldiers in Hechi County you are in have the least loss and the most enemies. "
"The dead have passed away, and there are no undead people on the battlefield. Only in the experience of standing and fire can soldiers really grow up; you are also an understanding person, and I believe you can understand what I say." Looking at Jia Rong's red eyes, Guo Yan said comfortingly.
Jia Rong knew that Guo Yan was caring about himself, but he just expressed it in another way. He looked at Guo Yan and said, "General, don't worry, Jia Rong understands this. Only living better is the best reward for his dead comrades."
Guo Yan nodded and said, "Maybe you are right. Only living better is the best reward for the dead."
After saying that, a trace of sadness flashed in Guo Yan's eyes.
Jia Rong usually looks at people very carefully and naturally captures the changes in Guo Yan's eyes; everyone has their own unusual experience, especially Guo Yan, a hundred battle generals.
Jia Rong looked at Guo Yan quietly and waited for the following. Guo Yan's order would not be so simple for him to come.
"When you go back, you can count the specific losses of the soldiers in Hechi County, including those who were injured and lost the ability to continue fighting on the battlefield, and report the results to me after the statistics." Guo Yan continued.
Jia Rong heard Guo Yan's words and asked, "General, I take the liberty to ask, I don't know how those seriously injured soldiers will deal with it?"
Listening to Jia Rong's question, Guo Yan nodded with satisfaction. Only the generals who know how to care about the soldiers can they be loved by the soldiers and better cooperate with the soldiers on the battlefield and play the greatest role. He said to Jia Rong, "Don't worry about this. We will give them pensions and give them fields. As for the dead soldiers, we will also compensate their families.
Although this condition is very unfair to Jia Rong from the future, in the era of war, this may be the best result.
Guo Wei then said to Jia Rong, "If there is nothing wrong, you can go and comfort the soldiers who have just gone through the war today."
Jia Rong saluted Guo Yan and said, "Yes, general, I will resign from my humble position."
When Jia Rong turned around and left, Guo Yan saw the knife wound on Jia Rong's back, and the red blood dyed the robe red. Guo Yan hurriedly stopped Jia Rong and then ordered the doctor to come for treatment.
After a rough dressing, the doctor said that it was nothing serious. It would be fine after today's rest. Guo Yan breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand to let Jia Rong go down. Bing told him to have a good rest and not to participate in the training in the next few days.
Feeling Guo Yan's care for himself, no matter what emotion he is in, Jia Rong is still very grateful to Guo Yan.
Returning to the camp where the soldiers of Hechi County were, Jia Rong endured the injuries and expressed their condolences one by one; when the soldiers saw Jia Rong coming in person, they struggled to stand up from ** and saluted Jia Rong.
After today's battle, they admire Jia Rong's performance in the battlefield. The army has always respected the strong. What's more, Jia Rong used to be their instructor, and their admiration for Jia Rong is like a torrential river, running endlessly.
Jia Rong hurriedly stopped them and said, "You don't have to do this. I'm just coming to see you."
When some soldiers heard Jia Rong say this, they immediately shed tears. Anyway, they are still teenagers. They have just experienced the death or injury of their companions, and their hearts are full of fear and sadness.
Jia Rong also understood them and said to them, "I know everyone's mood at this moment, and my heart is also very uncomfortable; but if you think about it carefully, their injuries and deaths are valuable. They sacrificed to protect our homes. Their deaths are Meaning; people have a death, either lighter than a feather, or heavier than Mount Tai. Their injury and death are heavier than Mount Tai.
Looking at the soldiers' faces slightly relaxed, Jia Rong continued, "Our responsibility tells us that we should not slack off and train harder in the future. I still say the same thing: "Sweat more at ordinary times and shed less blood in wartime." Do you understand this time?"
"I see!" The soldiers answered neatly, and their voices were low, but they were firm.
"Well, that's good." Jia Rong said with satisfaction that only after experiencing the battle of life and death can he understand the importance of strength.
Jia Rong continued: "You are soldiers. At any time, don't forget your identity and do what you should do. The soldier's vocation is to defend the country. Only in the experience of war can you thrive. I saw the scene when General Dong led the soldiers to kill the Qiang people today. You will be as brave as them one day. I look forward to your growth.
When the soldiers heard Jia Rong's words, the eyes of expectation flashed in their eyes. Naturally, they also wanted to become elite soldiers and strong generals, and also wanted to make achievements. They secretly clenched their fists and kept telling themselves to work towards the goals in their hearts.
After counting the specific casualties of the soldiers in Hechi County, Jia Rong was stunned. The original team of 2,277 people died after today's battle to defend the city. There were 149 soldiers who were seriously injured and lost the ability to continue fighting. That is to say, after World War I, only the soldiers in Hechi County The loss of 410 people is still a rough estimate of the team with less losses. How much should the soldiers in other counties lose?
After ordering the soldiers in charge of the order to report the losses of the soldiers to Guo Wei, Jia Rong lay down until ** and couldn't sleep for a long time. Thinking about today's battlefield, thinking about his comrades-in-arms who were still training and playing with him yesterday, but today he left him forever, Jia Rong had mixed feelings for a while.
The battlefield is always cruel; once the general is successful, this sentence is true. In later generations, I have no deep awareness of this sentence. When I was in the army, I trained relatively hard. How could I ever see such a real battlefield? After today's war, Jia Rong has a deep understanding of this sentence.
In the future, he will work harder. Jia Rong secretly warned himself in his heart; not only to wait for his Xiuer, but also to live better in troubled times; no one is not afraid of death, especially after experiencing the cruelty of the battlefield.
Recalling the words of the scribes around Dong Zhuo, Jia Rong is now deeply convinced; only war can make a soldier grow up quickly, and blind training cannot cultivate elite soldiers and strong generals; the battlefield is the real training of soldiers!
That night, Jia Rong dreamed that Li Xi cried to him that he did not want to die. He also dreamed that he became a general and led the soldiers of Hechi County to gallop on the battlefield. The team passed by, and the enemy fled. He became a senior official, rode a tall horse back to Lijia Village and married Xiuer...
