Chapter 134 Cleaning the battlefield is a professional job(1/2)

"Don't move, I'll kill anyone who runs again! Get down on the ground! Hold your head with both hands!" Liu Sheng killed a Qing soldier wearing a bright yellow vest with a single shot, and then raised his gun at the surrounded enemies.

There were two more shots at his feet.

"Your Majesty, please spare my life!"

"Master Jun, please spare your life!"



Hundreds of captured civilians, soldiers and several Han army gunners knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Miichiro pushed the bayonet on the gun to the halfway position, shook his hands hard, and the sharp bayonet was thrown out. He learned this skill from Wang Yuanfang, and it took him several days of practice to master the trick.

"Get down! Put your head in your hands!"

When his soldiers saw this, they also pulled out their bayonets, pointed them at the prisoners, and shouted together.

The prisoners were so frightened by the sharp bayonets surrounding them that they trembled and lay on the ground one after another, holding their heads in their hands and not daring to move. Liu Sheng looked sideways at the back of the money rat's head lying on the ground! He couldn't help but cursed: "That's really special.

How ugly!”

At this time, Wu Siyu came with his men. Liu Sheng told him a few words, waved, and led Jiuzang's company to the west. When Serdan saw it, he hurriedly chased after him.

As the gunfire gradually subsided, the battle, which lasted for a day and nearly wiped out an entire company, finally came to an end.

Wang Yuanfang saw that Zhao Xin was busy treating the wounded and did not care about anything else, so he said to Ding Guofeng who was sitting under the tree drinking water: "Guofeng, I have a task for you."

Ding Guofeng was also exhausted. He put down the kettle and stood up, shouting "Here we come!"

"Go to Wu Siyu and ask for a platoon to go back with you. First, inform Lao Chen and prepare some shovels and picks to bring over; second, bring the other 1,500 recruits over to clean the battlefield; third, let

Doctor Hong and his wife came over with their men to help Zhao Xin deal with the wounded. There were too many wounded, and he couldn't handle them at all."

Ding Guofeng repeated Wang Yuanfang's explanation, then saluted and turned to go to Wu Siyu to ask for someone.

Wang Yuanfang turned around and looked around. The scene was a bit chaotic now. Many soldiers didn't know what to do. Some of them had actually started to clean the battlefield and search the belongings of the dead soldiers. He hurriedly looked at the soldiers guarding Zhao.

Elu, who was next to Xin, said: "Elu, go and chase Mr. Liu back! Just say it's my order! Shoushan, go and invite Wu Siyu and Zhao Liang over right away."

"Go ahead. You two can't help me much here." Zhao Xin, who was bandaging the soldier's wounds, said calmly without looking back.

Elu and Lu Shoushan stood at attention, saluted, and left immediately.

Ten minutes later, Wu Siyu and Zhao Liang came over, but Liu Sheng hadn't come back yet. When they saw Wang Yuanfang's dark face, they wondered what was going on? After asking, they found out that the two companies led by the old squad leader had suffered too many casualties.

It's heavy.

The company led by Torayoshi suffered more than thirty casualties, while Katsu Kaishu's company, including himself, only had a dozen people left standing in the end, and all of them were wounded. Katsu Kaishu was hit on the left shoulder

The cut was not deep, but there was a lot of blood. He was in the excitement of hand-to-hand combat and didn't even notice it at first. It was only when Zhao Xin brought people over to treat the wounded that he realized he was injured.

Wu Siyu patted Wang Yuanfang on the shoulder and comforted: "Squad leader, don't think too much. This is our first time, so it is inevitable. These 'soldiers' will have to continue training when we go back!"

Wang Yuanfang said with a dark face: "I have asked Ding Guofeng to go back and call for help. We don't need to worry about cleaning the battlefield. Now someone has started to search for the property of the Qing army. You must reiterate the three major disciplines and eight principles to the soldiers below.

Attention! Violators...will be dismissed from the military and sent back to the island country!"

When Wu Siyu and Zhao Liang heard this, they quickly stood at attention and saluted. They said, "Yes!"

"Siyu, take a company to check the dead and wounded on the battlefield. Send all the injured and alive..." Wang Yuanfang raised his eyes and looked at the Qing army's camp, pointed to the position of the handsome tent in the center of the camp and said, "Everyone is here."

Send them there. Anyone who resists will be shot!"

"Zhao Liang, take a dozen people to search the big tent to see if there are any letters or other things that have been preserved."

Zhao Liang asked: "Where to put the things found?"

Zhao Xin stood up and said: "Put the letters and seals in the patrol boat on the beach. Don't worry about the others."

In the ancient army, there was also a dedicated person responsible for cleaning the battlefield. He treated his own wounded, searched for enemy soldiers who were still alive and hiding in hiding, counted seized materials and official documents, recovered weapons, and disposed of corpses.

Wang Yuanfang is currently arranging the first three tasks. As for the last two, we will wait until Chen Qingsong brings someone here.

None of the six members of the Security Department had any experience in large-scale battles. When Liu Sheng and the others joined the army, they were only soldiers responsible for reconnaissance and special operations, and Wang Yuanfang was a squad leader. When they encountered these things when they joined the army, it was not their turn.

Responsible.

Wang Yuanxiang asked Zhao Xin: "Look what else is missing?"

Zhao Xin looked at the wounded soldiers who had been bandaged with tourniquets and preliminary bandages everywhere. He rubbed the back of his neck and said, "The environment and sunlight here are not good. Call those who can move to help lift all the wounded soldiers."

To the Qing army camp."

It is said that battlefield rescue is not something that can be handled with just a little knowledge of first aid. A large amount of injury and bleeding is often an important reason for attrition in combat. If the tourniquet is insufficient, finger pressure to stop bleeding is the key method to race against time.

But how could Zhao Xin know this? He could only rely on his poor first aid knowledge to treat the wounded. Fortunately, every soldier received a first aid kit before setting off, so Zhao Xin first used the tourniquet in the first aid kit to tie the area around the wound.

Then simply wrap it with gauze.

As for the few people with broken limbs and fractures, Zhao Xin really couldn't handle it. So everyone could only make a simple stretcher out of tree branches and carry these people down the mountain.

When Lu Shoushan helped transfer the wounded soldiers to the Qing army camp, he saw that all the prisoners in the northeast corner of the camp had been tied up. Pan Xiucheng was leading his men to connect the tied prisoners together with ropes.

"Okay, Xiucheng! What do you think of this move?"

Pan Xiucheng laughed and said: "Shoushan, have you forgotten? When we first arrived at Ninggu Pagoda, weren't we all tied up in a bunch like this before going out to work?"

Lu Shoushan slapped his forehead and said, "Look at my memory!"

While the two were talking, several of the prisoners raised their heads and looked at Lu Shoushan in surprise.

"Brother Lu?" a young prisoner asked tentatively.

"Who are you?" Lu Shoushan took two steps forward, looked at the prisoner with a muddy face, and asked doubtfully.

"I'm Zhang Fang!" The young man looked eager and struggled to get up. A soldier next to him raised the butt of his gun and hit his stomach. The young man immediately couldn't breathe in pain and bent over.

He knelt on the ground and kept moaning.

"Zhang Fang?" Lu Shoushan shouted in surprise.

Two hours later, Ding Guofeng returned to Beihai Town with a platoon of soldiers. He came to the Xila River and turned on the walkie-talkie to call Chen Qingsong.

"Old Chen! We have won! You hurry up and cross the river! It's over."

After Ding Guofeng finished speaking, he heard no response from the walkie-talkie. He was about to say it again when he heard a huge cheer from the top of the hill opposite.

"Long live! Long live!" This is the refugee.

"Yeah~~! We won!" This is Liu Siting.

Ding Guofeng cursed: "Good guy! Director Liu's voice is really penetrating."

"Old Chen! Old Chen!"

"Ah, I'm here! It's over."

"Hurry up and lead 1,500 soldiers across the river with Katayama. Your help is needed on the battlefield! Hurry up!"



The battle didn't last long, but the work of cleaning the battlefield was busy from noon until late at night.

Dr. Hong and his wife, together with more than 20 female caregivers, took all the wounded and the soldiers who died in Beihai Town on the Thor and returned to Beihai Town in the first batch.

After Chen Qingsong and Katayama Kanbei arrived with more than a thousand recruits, they swept away all the captured materials in the Qing army camp; they took away everything they could.

Several warships on the beach were still burning until nightfall. Those warships that sank into the sea were not easy to salvage, so they were ignored for the time being. However, the broken limbs and body parts that were smashed by M2HB on the shore made Chen Qingsong and his gang miserable.

It was so frightening that many recruits vomited on the spot.

There was no other way. Katayama Kanbei led more than a hundred people and hastily dug a large pit on the west side of the Qing camp. They buried the body parts and the Qing soldiers who died in the battle. Then they escorted the remaining supplies.

Walking the mountain road back to Beihai Town.

As for Hai Lancha who was killed by Wang Yuanfang and another general who was killed by an unknown source, Zhao Xin arranged for several people to dig two graves, bury them separately and mark them.

In any case, Hailancha also fought against the Burmese invasion. From the perspective of another time and space, this man can be regarded as a good man and deserves respect.

Liu Sheng led two platoons and chased them westward for more than ten miles. During this period, he and Serdan got separated. In the end, he actually got lost in the mountains and forests! If Elu hadn't found them by looking for their footprints, he really wouldn't have been able to find them.

What are the consequences?

On the second day after returning to Beihai Town, Zhao Xin convened a plenary meeting. Everyone reported on the matters they were responsible for.

Hong Tao rubbed his red eyes and took a notebook to describe the casualties.

"Fifty-five people were killed in Beihai Town, 16 were seriously injured, and 11 were slightly injured. Among the dead, 30 were killed by bows and arrows; two were killed by shelling; and 22 were killed by sharp weapons such as knives or spears.

die.

Among the seriously injured, five were injured by bows and arrows hitting vital parts, and the other eleven were injured by cuts or stabs with sharp weapons. As for the minor injuries, there were many causes, including sprained feet while marching, and injuries sustained by knives.

Two others were wounded by matchlock guns fired by the Qing army."

Wang Yuanfang lowered his head and said nothing, while Liu Sheng and others looked at each other in shock. Eighty-two people were dead and injured, almost one in a row!

Zhao Xin thought depressingly, wouldn't it be necessary to prepare iron masks and stab-proof uniforms for soldiers in the future?

Next, Chen Qingsong reported the situation. There were a lot of things on his side, including the number of corpses of Qing soldiers inspected, and the seizure of weapons and supplies.

"...Among them are fifteen artillery pieces, five large muskets, 480 matchlocks, and two hundred handguns; other bows and arrows, knives, various long guns, cannonballs, gunpowder, flags, tents, tables, chairs, and benches

The pile is still being counted. There are also 367 Mongolian horses, but according to the captured grooms, many horses have broken away from their reins and ran away because they were frightened."
