Chapter 171: After the war
As three long black dragons kept striking the phalanx, the enemy had already lost its formation. It was only a matter of time before the enemy soldiers were washed away, and they were wiped out in a mess.
At this moment, the enemy camp, the fire dissipated, leaving only the thick smoke, like the dispersed thick fog, drifting into the distance with the breeze.
It's bright and the sun is noon.
The whole battlefield returns to silence.
The black cavalry surrounded it into a large circle, wrapping the entire battlefield.
In the battlefield, it was like the Avici Hell, with corpses and blood everywhere.
On each war horse, the knight's body was dripping with blood, dripping on the grass under his feet, and a slight sound came.
The battle is over.
A battle before dawn ended with the destruction of the enclave infantry troops.
The originally lively enemy troops have now become corpses scattered on the ground, and the blood has dried up, forming a stream and flowing to the distance.
Every knight had a solemn face, looking at the killing scene in front of him without saying a word.
They have experienced this situation countless times before and seen it countless times.
The battle of the killing field is to move forward in such a sea of corpses and blood. The territory of the sky is made up of the enemy's bones and blood.
Huang Yuchen sat quietly on the horse's back, his soft armor was stained with blood, and he was a little uncomfortable. The black war horse's temples were stained with blood, forming a strange black red. Now, there are still some blood dripping down.
Everything that happened just now flashed back in his mind. In an instant, the surging fighting spirit, the long halberd waving, the long sword in his hand, and the enemy's blood pouring on the ground filled his mind.
Only now did he understand what a real battle on the battlefield is.
The killing field and the meat mincing field in front of him clearly answered him.
The battlefield is stained with blood. The road ahead is paved with corpses.
A decision made by the superior can bring tens of thousands of casualties, countless people are displaced and homeless, tens of thousands of soldiers stained their battle robes and buried their bones in a foreign land.
Before, Huang Yuchen had no big concept of battles on the battlefield and casualties. No matter how many numbers there were, they were just numbers.
And now, he saw the bodies of thousands of soldiers lying on the battlefield, with blood all over the ground, broken limbs and arms, broken halberds, broken armor, dead war horses, and countless pairs of eyes that had lost their luster.
He now realized that every casualty number written in the battle report was a living person. Thousands of soldiers died in battle, and the battlefield was like hell. What about tens of thousands? What do hundreds of thousands look like? I am afraid that blood will merge into rivers and flow for miles.
Sweep the battlefield and count the casualties. The rest of his life sat on the horse, his face sinking like water. Like other knights, his mood did not change. For him, this was just a simple encounter, and the combat power of the two sides was a huge difference, which was almost an overwhelming victory. He experienced too many battles of tens of thousands of people. No matter how tragic, his mood would not fluctuate.
When the military order was issued, the team was divided into two groups, one group directly entered the killing field in front of them, and the other group entered the plains where they fought before and cleared the battlefield.
It is very easy for the soldiers Qitian to clear the battlefield. Separate the soldiers who died in battle on their own and buried them alone, leaving their personal belongings behind, bring them back to the empire, and hand them over to their relatives. The soldiers who died in battle on the enemy were piled up and set fire to the fire.
This is the fastest way to clean up the battlefield.
After a battle, our side also suffered losses, and countless injured people were injured, and there was no count of deaths. The rest of his life ordered the cleaning, which required a specific number. Only with the casualties and the subsequent battles could the plan be planned.
Consumables such as arrow feathers and rations were quickly sorted out and piled aside. Yu Sheng didn't watch it anymore, glanced at Huang Yuchen, turned his horse's head, and entered the enemy's camp.
As soon as he fought, there were not many enemy troops left in the camp. After five words, his voice was a little hoarse and his tone seemed tired. After a long journey into the Eastern Prince's Mansion, he had not closed his eyes for two days before, and after a night of march, he encountered a battle. At this moment, although he was still in good spirits, his tiredness had already climbed onto his face.
Huang Yuchen didn't say anything, but just quietly looked at the battlefield not far away. In the sky, a row of birds were flying by, and the jungle in the distance was lush.
You are still young and don’t understand the meaning of the battlefield. You will continue in a hoarse voice: Your performance is beyond my expectations for the first time when you have experienced the battlefield, but facing the sea of blood will also have an impact on your heart. Later, we will have to travel a long distance. I don’t know how many such battles you will have to go through. I don’t have the confidence to keep you in good faith.
Huang Yuchen clearly heard Yu Sheng's words, but was still silent. He didn't know what to say. He could hear the worries in Yu Sheng's tone. After this fight, he also understood that there were countless such fights waiting for his troops in front of him. He didn't say anything, but just held the hilt of the long knife on his waist tightly, and the palm of his hand oozed out of fine sweat beads, rendering the already dry blood stains on his hands, emitting a faint smell of blood.
You are extremely talented. If the East Mansion can survive this catastrophe, in time, you will definitely achieve extremely high achievements. If you lose it on the battlefield now, it would be a pity. Yu Sheng said, looking up at Huang Yuchen, who was silent, and seeing his face was plain and there was no slight tide in his eyes. This state was like a man who passed by and looked into the distance.
The sergeant just now received the order and issued a quick order. The army immediately lit a torch, threw the combustion aid into the pile of corpses, ignited it with the torch, and instantly the flames surged into the sky.
Hundreds of tombs were arranged neatly, on the edge of the battlefield, and the bodies of sergeants on their own were placed in the tomb. The soldiers beside them had no expression on their faces and quickly filled the soil.
They have also experienced a lot of burying their comrades with their own hands.
A battle is over.
Seven thousand dead souls were left behind. The rest of his life was prepared for military horses and walked slowly along the official road.
