Chapter 77 On the Road
The attack was prepared and the superiors came without preparation, and the troops were prepared to face the fatigue and looseness that came from afar. In addition, the power of the night attack and defeat of the battle under Changle City before, these Turkish troops, which seemed to be of a large scale, could not arouse the will and thoughts of resistance.
So in the end, only more than 300 were killed, but nearly a thousand people were captured by the prisoners and scattered outside. There were also various large carts and carts and cargoes that they captured and plundered, and more than 600 cattle, donkeys, mules, etc. alone. There were even more than 100 crying women, which made people sigh at the bad taste of this rich man in the country.
As usual, after a simple negotiation and negotiation, all the prisoners and most of the more bulky goods were left to the other party, and with a small amount of light and precious items and the cloth, grain, armored and tents, medicinal materials, firewood, charcoal and other military supplies, as well as all the animal power that can be used as a tow load, I bid farewell to go back on the road.
The existence of these animal power alone is enough to ensure that there are hundreds of minor and serious wounded people in the team, and everyone has a tool for transportation without taking turns to follow the brigade.
After the experience of the opponents who can be called geniuses and frightened birds in these two battles, Zhou Huai's back team has also recovered to more than 2,300 people. If it were not for the cost-effectiveness of maintaining consumption and scale cost, this number could be increased by 1,000; after all, in a place where there are so many hungry and food, there are many people who are hungry and have no food.
It was only after he considered the average level of physical fitness of the personnel and the involvement and bondage with the local area that he controlled it in the current scale; and he transferred all the remaining personnel to the troops Zhu Bie, in disguise, to exchange for corresponding animal power and transportation.
Therefore, the current guards have returned to a scale of more than 400 people, and they are just more than a group of people who are usually organized. If the lightly wounded people in the team are launched, they can even bring together nearly 800 combatants, which are almost all the troops of a sub-battalion;
Among the other soldiers and varied personnel who are still divided into five brigades, one of them is directly equipped with knife bows and drums, and when necessary, it can be used as substitutes.
In addition, although the size of the apprentice team has decreased due to casualties, the scale of the direct team has expanded to more than 50 people, divided into five cavalry fires to take turns to serve Zhou Huaian's daily needs; in this way, two of them are responsible for horse-striking patrols in front and rear, one is responsible for orders to run, one is responsible for night patrol patrols, and the other is waiting for the opportunity to serve.
What is more comforting is that the reason why the leader of the Zhaojia Village obtained the Huilong ointment, Feilong oil and other prescriptions for the injury were secretly collected by the Zhaojia Village; Chen Duer, the most injured person in the apprentice team, finally survived the postoperative cold and fever and recovered from the postoperative infection; the pus and blood cleared from the wounds on the stomach were gradually fading.
But the first words he woke up made Zhou Huaian feel a little sad and helpless.
"Don't give up on me, I still have to continue learning my skills..."
After dividing the spoils on the spot and saying goodbye again, because of the need to continue trading in the future, Zhou Huaian finally recorded the names of the friendly generals - and later led Zhu Cun, the deputy general of the right wing of the Fourth Army, the right wing of the Shooting Camp, to be a person with a serious appearance but a flexible contract spirit and business acumen;
In his own words, the family was a tutor, but the grandfather died long ago. The young brothers and sisters were fed to the outside family with their mothers, and they had to do some small business to make a living, so what is the point of recognizing the points?
It’s a pity that even the small business that makes people work hard to make a living in this world can’t continue, and almost lost two lives. Then, by chance, I got involved with the Great General of the Butian King. Therefore, from the perspective of the great origin, I was also a fellow villager in the northern part of the Nufeng Camp.
After Zhaojiazhai, which was scraped by Luo, started the road again, there was a team of storms that had just begun to set up a lineup. Lao Guan and Cheng Da were biting each other and watching him, and Xu Si was on standby. Zhou Huaian was able to curl up to his own car, and renovate it again and could be used as a simple temporary dormitory and office space, and a double-drag carriage integrating private dining rooms, and started his routine meal addition process.
In this way, his side was restored to purity, and only a few people were left; including the temporary apprentice captain Mi Bao.
Because of Mi Bao's decisive handling of dissent in the team at the beginning of Changle City, he stood out from the apprentices who started and gained the initial trust that Zhou Huaian had retained; and became one of the third followers who could stay by his side all day after Liao Yuan and Xiao Qi.
Of course, their division of labor is still different. Xiaoqi is still responsible for the miscellaneous tasks of daily life, and by the way he can master some personal items and matters; for example, he goes to and from several auxiliary brigades in his personal name to collect corresponding materials and information, or customize some semi-finished products that are indescribable according to the style;
As for the former little shaman Liao Yuan, he mainly copied and sorted documents, and recorded and compiled some things according to Zhou Huaian's requirements. Originally, he had a monk Yuanjing/Yuan Jing who came with him, but he was currently borrowed by Wang Pan to help, responsible for the daily receipt and delivery of documents and letters in the camp.
Mibao, who was newly stayed by his side, was assigned to train interns and assist in handling, logistics allocation and general affairs between the ranks, and also to expand the training scope and content of the banner-speaking team.
After all, with more relatively sufficient manpower and resources, since you have the opportunity to save trouble or be lazy, Zhou Huaian is still happy to be idle for a while; for example, hiding in a shaking carriage, driving a small stove to give yourself some delicious food, or doing some private work, checking the progress of preparation in private.
These days, he has been busy with the army and the army, and has been busy with the survival of this small team, but these aspects have temporarily paused. Therefore, when he took out his itinerary schedule marked with special symbols, it seemed that it had been a long time since he actually felt a little unfamiliar.
.........
And in a mountainous land next to Xunzhou official road,
"Salute to the wonderful father, Alaha,
The prince Misho
Luhening the body,
The above three bodies are one"
Contlinoa, a merchant who escaped from Guangzhou, was tied to a churning pot like a light pig, looking at the naked-faced man with a naked face who was adding something to it, desperately chanting the excerpts of the "Zhixuan Anle Sutra" in his heart, and praying hard.
"Everything is true and returns to the fullest
Saviors and saves the demons
The King of Living Life
Dapu is working hard and unremittingly”
Especially when he saw the other party fishing out the pot, the things he ate last night were spitting only bitter and sour water left; because he saw with his own eyes the faint words that were not cooked on the bones and flesh; at least in the world he knew, no one would tattoo the meat with pigs and sheep;
Only in order to prevent the soldiers in the garrison from escaping, would they give prominent parts of their bodies to deliberately stab the words "courage" and hunt and identify them. Therefore, he had read various versions of the Gospels for his whole life, but was forced to commit the unjust mistake of falling into purgatory.
You should know that this time, he paid all his wealth and prepaid the reputation accumulated over the generations, and came to Middle-earth again with several ships of goods, hoping to make a good profit in this chaotic world. As a result, before he could find someone to deliver it, he was requisitioned and seized by the local government;
Then, the army of rebels from the north captured this great city and launched a bloody massacre. He finally escaped from the death ground in Guangzhou who was killed when he saw the Hu people when he saw him. As a result, the guides and servants recruited from the local area had a strange intention. For the sake of the valuable and delicate things he carried, they fought on the spot and fled;
He escaped his life alone again, but inexplicably fell into a trap in the mountains and forests, and continued to suffer a painful and tragic fate and fate? Thinking of this, he recited the gospel book named by the Lord of the Merchant and Traveler, the sage named by the Dharma King Mingtai (disciple Matthew).
“The Great Saint Puzunmi Shihe
I sigh that my kind father has mercy in the sea
Great Sage and Pure Wind
