Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The brutality of the war has gone away from these two armies, but what remains is endless pain. Soldiers from both sides began to collect the remains of Paoze who died in the battle. The aura of sadness permeated the entire city, and from time to time, low sounds could be heard.  Sounds of sobs. Ò»1k?a?nshu What is very strange is that the soldiers collecting the bodies from both sides will meet each other on the river beach and embankment from time to time, but there is no such thing as the life-and-death atmosphere between them that they had in the past few days.  , both sides looked at each other, and they could only see the sadness deep in each other's eyes.  In this battle, the Chu army suffered more than 50,000 casualties, while the Han army suffered more than 15,000 casualties, leaving more than 2,000 people.  Both sides were injured, especially the Chu army. There were many fathers, sons, and brothers in the army. In comparison, the Han army paid special attention not to organize such soldiers into an army when recruiting troops.  In order to avoid the situation where all the men in the family will die after such a big battle.  The body of a Chu soldier was lying face down on the ground. When his colleagues struggled to lift his body, they suddenly discovered that there was a Han soldier's body pressed under him.  The knife stabbed the Han soldier in the lower abdomen, and the Han soldier's knife was deeply embedded between his sternum. Until they died, their hands were still holding the handle of the knife tightly, which connected the two of them.  Together, when moving the Chu soldiers, they also brought up the Han soldiers below.  The two Han soldiers on the other side walked over silently. They worked together to pull out the knives, then lifted up the bodies of their partners and walked to their side silently.  Scenes like this are happening all over Yingshui City.  The small square outside the General Office was neatly filled with corpses. They were wrapped in white cloths from head to toe. As more and more corpses were carried, the small square was filled with corpses.  Gradually I can no longer let go.  Wu Ya commanded the soldiers of the Fourth Division to clean up the bombed and burned houses around the square, clearing out open spaces one after another to display the remains of these fallen heroes.  ??Ò»??Reading Meihua stood expressionlessly on the steps in front of the General Office, her face completely white.  He lost his left arm, but was actually very seriously injured. The situation was tense due to the brutal fighting in the past two days.  He could only support himself, but once the situation stabilized and his body and mind relaxed, he could no longer support himself.  He had to be supported by two soldiers, one on the left and one on the right.  Because he refused to leave, he wanted to watch his soldiers here.  Every time a body was brought up, an official would step forward, look at the bracelet on the soldier's wrist, and write down his unit number and his name.  Some soldiers' corpses were mutilated, and their wristbands could not be found. They had to be placed on the other side for the surviving soldiers to identify, and some others.  It is impossible to identify them at all, and these remains can only be recorded in another volume.  In the end, what was reported would only be a set of numbers, but at this time, what Mei Hua saw was endless sorrow. A soldier was the sorrow of a family, several or even dozens of people.  "Go and have a rest!" Wu Ya walked to Mei Hua.  "They are all gone. You can't feel it when you look at them. They are gone." "But I wish you peace of mind!" Mei Hua said calmly: "In this battle, my third division was completely destroyed. Inside.  There is a veteran who has been with me for seven or eight years. I know the man I brought here earlier, his name is Wang Bao, he is almost forty, he is from Jicheng, and he invited me to his house for a drink. He has a virtuous wife, although she is not.  Beautiful, but docile, with three sons and two daughters, it¡¯s such a big family. Originally, he was supposed to retire, but at his age, he asked to stay and lead a group of new soldiers, our First Army.  We have added a lot of recruits in the past two years, but this battle is gone. I really can¡¯t imagine what will happen to his family when they know that he will die in battle?  Brother Lao Wang is also mentally prepared for this. Ò»1k?a?nshu" Wu Ya said empathetically.  "When fighting, we can't feel death, fear, or sadness. Only at this time do I feel that I am still a human being and have human feelings." Mei Hua took steps towards the steps, and the two  A soldier hurriedly followed him, supporting him from left to right. Mei Hua staggered a little, "I now truly understand what the King of Han said. Only when the world is unified will there be no more fighting between each other."  The people can live and work in peace and contentment. Our world has been fighting each other for thousands of years, and there has never been a peaceful year. But now, we have reason to look forward to the day when the Chu Kingdom is destroyed.  There is only one Qin State left, and it is difficult to support it alone. If our army marches westward, the world will be unified and peace will finally come. " "Yes, I hope this day comes soon!" Wu Ya nodded.  "Wu Ya, please send as much of this white cloth to Qu Wan over there as possible. I'm afraid they won't have it," Mei Hua said suddenly.    Wu Ya was stunned.  "You don't hate him? All of your more than 10,000 soldiers died at his hands." "Each one has his own master. It's hard to say whether he hates him or not." Mei Hua shook his head and said, "They are all pitiful people.  Na! His warriors are also warriors. Even if the warriors die, they must die with dignity. Send them over!" Wu Ya frowned and said, "I can send the things over, but don't say what you just said, pass them on to the top.  But it doesn't sound good. You are a pitiful person!" Mei Hua smiled, "Go ahead, I know what I am saying. I am a great hero, I am a high-ranking official, my eldest brother.  He's the king's butler. My second brother is a world-famous businessman and a member of the Great Council. Who would cause trouble for me?" After hearing this, Wu Ya's face suddenly turned ugly, "What are you showing off for?  "Who didn't know that you, Mei Hua, are our young master, that's amazing!" Seeing Wu Ya turn away with a stinky face, Mei Hua laughed happily. This guy has always been a stone in the pit, and he is so stupid!  This is true when you are a small soldier, and it is also true when you become the commander of a division and a dignified general.  Reaching out from her arms, she took out the treasured brocade bag, opened it, and stared at the beautiful woman and cute child above. Mei Hua smiled and said: "Daughter-in-law, son, just wait for me. I will be home soon. I  I will never leave you again. I will stay with you for the rest of my life." Outside Yingchuan County, the Chu Army camp.  Qu Wan looked at the carts of white cloth sent by the Han army, his face muscles twitched, and he didn't know what to say.  "General Qu, this is what our commanders Mei and Wu sent here. The two commanders said that the soldiers who died in your army were all warriors. Warriors should have the dignity of warriors. These white cloths can allow warriors to leave with dignity.  ." An officer saluted Qu Wan and said loudly.  Looking at the low-ranking officer of the Han army in front of him, Qu Wan clasped his fists with both hands and bowed his hands to the ground: "Qu would like to thank the two officers of your army. If there is an opportunity in the future, Qu will definitely visit you to express his gratitude for today."  The officer smiled: "Of course there is a chance. General Qu, take your leave." "Wait a moment." Qu Wan asked, "In this battle, there will be rivers of blood on both sides of the river.  Don¡¯t you hate us?¡± ¡°There¡¯s nothing to hate!¡± The officer shook his head, ¡°We want to unify the world, and you want to protect your country, that¡¯s all, fight to the death for your own purposes, you think you are right,  As for us, we feel that we are right. In this case, the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy. Now, we have won. Oh, speaking of which, in Yingshui, we should be regarded as the Chu people.  It's only right to win, but you won the small game, but lost the overall game. General Qu Wan, I really want to thank you. I am from the third division. In fact, in the end, we had no intention of surviving.  "It is precisely because of your strike that we survived by chance." "So that's what you think?" Qu Wan said in confusion.  "Yes, General Qu. I used to be from Qi. When we were destroyed by the Han Dynasty, we were very angry and sad. But then we found that life can be better. Now Qi  , there are no wars, no exorbitant taxes, and no oppression by officials. We don¡¯t have to worry about whether this will come today or that will come tomorrow. The people there are now thinking about one thing, that is, how to live a better life.  Better. Make your pockets richer." The officer smiled and said, "Now you Chu people must also hate us Han people, but it won't be long before they forget about you, because the big Han people can give them.  The court of Chu State will never give it to you." Watching the officer leave with his soldiers, Qu Wan had mixed feelings.  Bai Xizhong's voice came from behind: "Is this the magnanimity and thinking of a great country?" "Yes, this is the magnanimity of the Han people." Qu Wan turned around and said, "Xizhong, you said that in the future we will be like this officer said  "Is that so?" "I don't know." Bai Xizhong shook his head and said, "But if it is true as this officer said, I am afraid that our people in Da Chu will soon forget the eight hundred years of the Chu Dynasty.  "It's better." Qu Wan nodded silently. After he surrendered to Meihua, the Han people did not ask them to put down their weapons. They just asked them to set up another camp outside Yingchuan County and were not allowed to leave the barracks without permission. They were provided with food and supplies.  They are all supplied by the Han people. Yesterday, a group of members of the Military Law Department from the Han Kingdom also arrived at the Chu camp. The purpose was not to deal with the Chu people, but to worry about the Han soldiers provoking revenge. With them here, those Han soldiers would not  How dare you come here.  In short, nothing that Qu Wan was worried about happened.  From the outside, they looked nothing like a surrendered army.  (To be continued.)
