Qiming 1158

Chapter 405 They are much tougher than we think

The aftermath work on the top of the city continued. Wu Anxiang and Jiang Liangping were already sitting together, looking at the orange-red Wanyang that was about to disappear. The two did not speak for a while.

It should be Wu Anxiang who opened the conversation, anyway, when Jiang Liangping reacted, it was Wu Anxiang who was talking.

"Today, we lost 230 soldiers. Of course, there were many wounded, but the wounded have been properly resettled. Many people can survive, but those who died in battle cannot survive.

Among the soldiers who died in battle, 220 of them, I can know exactly who they are. Their corpses can be identified and cremated. The ashes will be placed in jars and handed over to their families after the war. The family members will receive generous pensions.

However, what makes me a little sad is that there are eleven people left, I know who they are, and most of the corpses have been found, but I don't know which corpse belongs to which person..."

When Wu Anxiang said this, he couldn't hold back, he laughed dryly, "Haha", and turned his head to look at Jiang Liangping.

"Liangping, you said, if we burn their respective bodies wrong, and the jars contain other people's ashes, they will be unhappy when the family burns paper money for them during the festivals?"

Jiang Liangping pursed his lips, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"No, they are all good soldiers of the Restoration Army, they will not be unhappy, even if they get there, they will stick together, have money, spend together, have food, eat together.

If you still have to fight over there and fight with those lingering superiors, then the person who has made the most contributions will give you extra meals, and they will not forget our rules. "

Wu Anxiang felt inexplicably relieved when he heard Jiang Liangping's words.

"Yes, our soldiers, even if they get there, they will be people who will not be bullied in a group. If one person has money to spend, he will never let another person starve and freeze... Besides, ashes. Mixed with ashes, they are all like a family, inseparable..."

Wu Anxiang took a breath and was silent for a while before he said again, "This battle has been fought for more than ten days, right?"

"Well, today is the No. 11 day."

"How long do you think we can last?"

"This...is going to ask them."

Jiang Liangping looked in a certain direction, Wu Anxiang turned his head and followed Jiang Liangping's line of sight.

It was a battle team who gathered in Chengtou to eat a large piece of meat. The leader of the team was holding his own dagger to cut a thick piece of meat from a large piece of barbecue, and then handed the piece of meat to a A young warrior who looks very young.

The young soldier took the piece of meat and couldn't wait to bite it, but the head of the class gave him a light pat on the head.

"Stupid! You can't eat like this! There's no soul to eat meat like this! Look at me!"

The squad leader, who didn't seem to be a few years older than the young soldier, cut the dough cake in his hand in half from the middle, then cut a piece of meat and stuffed it between the two dough cakes. Satisfaction on the face.

"Do you understand? This is the way to eat with a soul! Meat is a good thing, so when you eat meat, you must know how to eat it! You can't eat it indiscriminately! Learn it, don't spoil this piece of meat!"

The members of the team suddenly realized one by one, and they followed the example of the class leader to cut the dough in his hand, then sandwiched the meat in it. Like a stupid hamster that goes around gathering food for the winter.

The young soldier questioned the squad leader while chewing.

"Boss, what do you mean by what you just said? What has a soul but no soul? Why don't I understand?"

The soldiers looked at the head of the squad together.

The head of the class chewed what was in his mouth and swallowed his stomach, then opened his mouth slowly.

"Don't you understand? This is what Su Shuai told me. I was a recruit at the time. Once when we were eating meat in a group, Su Shuai sat beside me and saw how I was eating meat. Su Shuai said it was not true. The way of eating the soul says that I will not eat meat.

Not to mention, before joining the army, I really didn't eat meat a few times, and I couldn't remember the taste of meat, so I asked Su Shuai what is the soulful way to eat meat, and Su Shuai cut one with his own hands. Bread, stuffed a piece of meat into it, handed it to me, let me eat it, that's it. "

The head of the class took another bite of the meat in his hand, and said with a smile: "Actually, I don't know what it means to have a soul but not a soul, but since Shuai Su eats meat like this, then I also eat it like this. , that's right."

The soldiers nodded one after another, feeling that the squad leader was right.

Then one of the soldiers found a flower spot.

"Boss, so, have you ever eaten the noodles and meat that Su Shuai made for you?"

"Hey hey, just noticed?"

The team leader suddenly laughed, and said with a smirk on his face: "It's the dough bread that Su Shuai made for me with meat. Let me tell you, there are not many people in the army who have more than 20 to [-] people who have such treatment! I am one of them!"

A group of young soldiers surrounded the squad, their eyes filled with envy.

They couldn't see the fatigue left after the war on their faces, but they could see the spirit of high spirits.

Seeing this, Wu Anxiang was thoughtful, and then looked at Jiang Liangping, who was smiling at the corners of their mouths.

"what do you mean?"

"They're looking for more interesting ways to eat meat. Thinking like this shows that they're much tougher than we think. Instead of worrying about whether they can persevere, it's better to worry about whether we can persevere. If we I can't hold on anymore, just relying on them, I can't hold on."

Jiang Liangping patted his cheek with both hands: "Okay, let's eat something, there will be a fierce battle tomorrow, you must persevere until you completely defeat those bastards."

Wu Anxiang took a deep breath.

"Yeah, there will be more and more fierce battles. In any case, it will be until the time when Alang leads his troops to counterattack!"

Wu Anxiang clenched his fists, followed behind Jiang Liangping, and went down the city wall.

In the next three days, Wan Yanliang mobilized 10 soldiers to attack the city five times, each time with great momentum and menacing force, as if he wanted to swallow the entire Hejian City in one bite.

However, under the resolute resistance of the Restoration Army, Jin Jun did not take advantage of it. Either he was blown into pieces by the Thor Cannon, or he was scalded by the golden sauce.

The flying muskets kept spewing fire, the bows and crossbows kept firing arrows, boulders and big arrows kept firing, and everyone inside and outside the city was red-eyed.

Hejian City was not taken down by the Jin Army in one go, but became more and more tenacious and tenacious, rejecting the Jin Army from the city.

Golden soldiers can't go an inch.

Seeing helpless, Wanyan used more classic and effective traditional tactics, such as digging tunnels and building walls of earth outside the city.

However, the tunnel tactics were ineffective, and were soon punctured by the Restoration Army who used the Ting Urn. The soldiers in the entire tunnel were choked to death by the thick smoke, and the tunnel tactics failed.

Dirt wall tactics are similar.

The Jin army tried to build a wall of earth outside the city, using the same height and the number of crossbowmen that surpassed the Restoration Army to suppress the bowmen of the Restoration Army at the top of the city, and to support the siege troops under the city, but the Restoration Army used rockets to blow up the earth wall. Potholes and pits are scattered, and the earthen wall will not rise at all.

The increased power of the firearms has a very large lethality on the earthen wall, which Jin Jun did not expect.

Wanyan Ben saw that all his means were exhausted, and he failed to gain the upper hand in the offensive and defensive battle. Facing the swearing resistance of the Restoration Army, the Jin army could not advance an inch.

At the same time, Jin Jun Wanyan Yiying's troops were also blocked by the well-defended Zhending City, and Heshi Lie Liangbi's troops were also blocked by Boye City. The two armies and cities fought equally fiercely.
