Chapter 561: Killing and Punishing the Heart
At dusk in the afternoon.
While Gu Chan was still sitting in the lobby of the Lord's Mansion, anxiously waiting for the news.
Yan Kuan held his head high and walked with a breeze. He came to the lord's mansion happily and walked into the lobby. The first time he saw Gu Chan, he laughed and said, "Lord, I am going to show you my sincerity." The news is here."
"How is the battle going?" Gu Chan asked.
"In the battle this morning, a total of thirty-seven enemy warships were destroyed, and more than 11,000 enemy soldiers were captured, and more than a thousand were injured. However, there was no fear of life. Now all these soldiers are captured All the soldiers have been temporarily escorted back to the firearms camp for proper placement, and the soldiers did not show much resistance," Yan Kuan said happily.
"Hahaha..."
Gu Chan couldn't hold it back and opened her mouth to laugh.
She really didn't expect that Suigetsu, a female general known as the number one female general in Kyoto, would be such a fool.
All she thought about last night was that destroying half of the opponent's warships and forcing the opponent to retreat would be the best result. However, she did not expect that the fruits of this victory far exceeded her imagination. ah!
Wei Xing and the three people sitting next to him also looked confused.
Yuan Jie was even more surprised and said, "General Yan, how could this happen? We only have twenty battle ships, one hundred artillery pieces, and only a few thousand soldiers in total, how can we still achieve such a great victory?" "
"Ms. Yuan didn't know something. Our side used artillery to attack, and the enemy could only use bows and arrows to fight back. Both sides were competing against each other. In comparison, it can be said that our side was a tactical crushing force. The enemy was completely unable to fight back. And most importantly, the enemy general made a mistake in judgment and did not retreat when it was time to retreat. Instead, he took the initiative. Attacking us has shortened the distance between the two warships, which makes it easier for our artillery to target and attack!" Yan Kuan explained with a smile.
After he finished speaking, Yuan Jie was so amused that she laughed from ear to ear.
Wei Xing asked, "What about the enemy general?"
"Hey! Chief Manager, that's it. I feel it's a pity that we let the enemy general escape in a small boat. If we can capture her and the lieutenants together, then this battle will be considered complete." Yan The smile on his wide face paused, and he said with a look of disappointment.
Ren Nanshan said with stars in his eyes, "General Yan, I envy you so much! I also want to go up and fight them with real swords and guns, but it's a pity that I don't have this chance. "
"What are you anxious about? Today is the first day of the offensive and defensive battle, and there are still two days to go! I will let you go up and have fun." Gu Chan waved her hand and said.
Ren Nanshan was immediately excited and eager to fight on the battlefield as soon as possible.
Yan Kuan said, "Lord, what should we do now?"
"You lead the brothers in the firearms camp to keep an eye on the waterways. At the same time, you will give preferential treatment to the captured soldiers. Those who are willing to stay will be included in the firearms camp. Those who are not willing to stay will be given generous gifts and sent back to the left. Go to Wang Feng's place," Gu Chan said with a bad smile.
"Yes, Lord." Yan Kuanle responded.
Then he said no more and immediately followed Gu Chan's instructions, rushing back to the firearms camp to appease the captured soldiers.
After he left, Gu Chancai said to Ren Nanshan, "Don't be idle. Take a team of guards and run around the entire Jiangnan City with a gong. You can bang the gong and shout at the same time. On the first day of the military exercise, the offensive and defensive battles were successful. The enemy's army was completely wiped out, and we achieved great results."
"Yes, Master," Ren Nanshan said while holding back a smile.
After saying that, he immediately got up and left, and then took more than 20 guards, each riding a fast horse and holding a gong, and began to run around Jiangnan City to spread the good news.
At night, the first wave of offensive and defensive battles today, and the disappearance of Gu Chan's huge victory spread throughout the entire Jiangnan area. The common people in Jiangnan City decorated the city with lights, played gongs and drums, and set off firecrackers and fireworks to celebrate, creating a festive atmosphere that made Zuo Wangfeng, who was in the Dujiang Town camp, furious.
Anyway, he never thought that Shuiyue would lose so miserably despite having such a huge advantage.
No, at this time, he was turning around angrily in the big tent, his face was ashen, and he was extremely angry.
Shuiyue and several of his lieutenants knelt in front of him, all with their heads lowered and silent.
After being angry for a while, Zuo Wangfeng glared at Shuiyue and cursed angrily, "This is just a military exercise to attack and defend. It's not like you really want to fight him. He obviously has powerful weapons like artillery. , if you can't defeat it, just lead the warship back. It's better now. Give it to me. Not only did you lose more than 30 warships, but you also lost all the more than 10,000 soldiers you brought with you. You are simply embarrassed and thrown into your grandma's house."
"General, I suffered a defeat. , I have nothing to say, just use military law to deal with me!" Shui Yue said stubbornly, lowering her head.
"You..." Zuo Wangfeng was so angry that she was speechless.
To say that this is really a war between the two armies, it would be fine to deal with Shuiyue through military law. But the problem is that except for the loss of more than thirty warships in this offensive and defensive battle, there is no Casualties.
Only Shuiyue killed a deputy general with his own hands. How could he use military law to deal with Shuiyue?
In anger, Zuo Wangfeng said with a livid face, "Come here, drag her out and give me a hundred hard blows. From today on, I will remove her from the position of female general and stay in the camp to temporarily feed Xuan Xuan." Beast."
"Yes, General." The two soldiers responded in unison, and immediately came in, one on the left and the other on the right, dragging Shuiyue out to fight.
“Bah, bang, bang…”
Soon there were loud banging sounds outside the big tent.
Shuiyue could hold on at first, but when she hit more than thirty boards, she finally couldn't hold it anymore.
"Ahhhh..."
The next thing that sounded was her painful scream.
The lieutenants kneeling in the tent all had pale faces, and beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.
After following Zuo Wangfeng for many years, this was the first time they saw him so angry.
But this was just the beginning. Just when King Zuo was losing his temper, a soldier quickly ran into the tent and said to him, "General, the people under the lord have sent back our captured soldiers. And they also carried the body of the deputy general who was chopped to death by Shuiyue soldiers with the highest etiquette of sixteen people."
"This..." Zuo Wangfeng was speechless.
The soldier said again, "General, there are only more than 3,000 soldiers from our army who have returned."
Zuo Wangfeng was stunned in place. After being silent for a long time, at a certain moment he was like I ate a piece of mouse shit. I wanted to vomit but couldn't. I felt sick but couldn't feel that way. I slowly sat back on the chair behind me.
The several lieutenants kneeling on the ground all looked extremely ugly.
They had to admire Gu Chan's method. She had completely given Zuo Wangfeng a murderous move!
