Chapter 381 Moving forward with a heavy load

After Cheng Xiaoxiao eliminated the last enemy who had not escaped, he entered into a non-stop process of rescuing people.

The soldiers who came to rescue silently collected the bodies of their teammates.

They did not expect that the battle situation outside the city would be even more tragic and tragic than inside the city.

If they cannot wait for rescue, the general and his entire army will surely be annihilated.

Fortunately, Miss Cheng appeared out of nowhere, otherwise they would have been just as miserable.

The brothers who died in the battle were all heroes and good men, and they sacrificed their lives to protect the country and the people.

To protect their homeland, they would not give in and fight until the last moment of their lives.

It is worthy of admiration and admiration.

The soldiers choked with sobs, closed their eyes for them, and gathered their broken bodies.

May they rest in peace in heaven.

While Cheng Duhu was fighting with the prairie warriors, Cheng Duhu killed many more cavalry, and the remaining cavalry were basically slaughtered.

His body had been overloaded for a long time. After taking care of the surrounding cavalry, he fell straight down. Fortunately, Lieutenant General Lin was not far from him and rescued him in time.

When the carloads of corpses were pulled into the city gate on carts, parents and brothers who recognized their relatives came forward and cried bitterly.

The scene got out of control for a while.

The tragic atmosphere is so strong that people can't help but cry.

Cheng Xiaoxiao's nose became sour, and his eyes became red, and tears fell down inadvertently.

There are no quiet years in this world, but there are people who carry the burden for you.

Well! The people standing behind are so lucky. There is a group of people in front who are brave enough to move forward and are not afraid of death to protect them from the wind and rain.

She had a lot of feelings during this mission, and experienced a lot of feelings about her family and country, and great pride. These were all brought to her by the most ordinary ordinary soldiers.

They don't have profound knowledge, they may not be able to read, and they don't have any rich emotions, or even express them, but they dare to put aside their chests and pour out their blood, squeeze out the last bit of value in their bodies, drag the enemy to death, and let them die together.

People have infinite reverence and admiration for them. They are martyrs and heroes, and they deserve everyone to be proud of and praise them.

Dragging heavy steps, he led the team back to the general's mansion.

Cheng Duhu and Lieutenant General Luo lost too much blood and were seriously injured. After Xiao Xiao's emergency rescue, they were out of danger, but they would not wake up for a while.

The condolence ceremony for the soldiers was hosted by Vice General Lin and Cheng Xiaoxiao.

Today, the town's losses were too heavy. More than a thousand soldiers died in the battle, and about a thousand and a half of the people in the city died.

The number of people in the town dropped sharply by 1/4, and 2/3 of the soldiers defending the city were killed.

Shocking data.

How many years of recuperation does it take for a border town to live a decent life? Now it's back to before liberation.

Some of these sacrificed soldiers and civilians and their families were reunited as families underneath, while the broken families that survived were wiping broken pearls for their dead relatives.

At this moment, children who have lost their parents have no support and no one to protect them from the wind and rain on the road of growth, so they can only face it alone. The old man who lost his child has no mourners to hold the funeral pot and he has aged ten years in an instant.

God is dying, and life has lost hope.

At this moment, the wife who lost her husband has no solid support, no idea where to go, and the future is dark and uncertain.

The vast funeral procession finally transported the remains of the soldiers to the temporary cemetery.

The younger generation and all the relatives and friends followed, wearing sackcloth and mourning, weeping in unison, wailing to themselves, saying their final farewells to their relatives, placing the few funerary objects into the grave, and finally lifting up the soil and placing it in the grave, and erecting a monument to express their condolences.

.

Place a funeral pot, incense, wax, paper money, and burning prayers in front.

In the vast burial ground, relatives burst into tears, solemn and lonely.

Crying and mourning, the emotion of grief infected everyone present.

Not only women and children were grieved, but even strong-blooded men burst into tears.

People can't get over grief for a long time, but they don't have extra time to grieve.

The suffering of the living begins.

After the simple mourning ceremony is completed, there are still a lot of follow-up matters that need to be dealt with.

After dark, Qiao Town looks even more desolate and rundown, with snowflakes rustling and a cold wind blowing.

There was a lot of noise in the general's mansion, and the houses of the common people were burned down.

On such a cold night, I could only huddle inside the General's Mansion, where I could avoid the cold wind but not the falling snow. Under the courtyard wall of the General's Mansion, old and mottled tarpaulins covered the entire courtyard.

Every side room, woodshed, pavilion, even the stable and martial arts training ground were crowded with people.

The injured soldiers sat in side rooms or side rooms, the old people and children lived in the firewood shed that was sheltered from the wind and rain, and the rest of the people lived in the existing tents.

Only part of Lieutenant General Lin's courtyard was burned, and some people were arranged to live in it. Then, the temporary housing for the guard at the city gate was not burned, and uninjured soldiers or lightly injured people guarded the city gate.

The common people voluntarily moved all the leftover things from their homes to the general's mansion. Some of the things in the cellar were still well preserved and were not burned by the fire or discovered by the cavalry. What remained became food for them to survive.

Before nightfall, Lieutenant General Lin sent people to search everywhere, but no trace of Lieutenant General You was found. His home was also emptied and all belongings were moved away.

Apparently he fled out of fear of crime.

Cheng Xiaoxiao wanted to make a deal with Cheng Duhu in exchange for some prairie war horses to be temporarily raised in space.

When the cold wave passed, her underground city was almost completed.

The construction of the underground city is urgent and requires rapid development. The stronger the armed forces, the better, so as to prevent people with ulterior motives from taking advantage of her weakness.

Therefore, war horses are indispensable, and they happen to be short of food. It is a deal that everyone is happy with.

The prairie war horses are tall and majestic, with strong muscles and slender hooves. At first glance, they have better endurance and higher skills than the horses in the Central Plains. She knows this well. She has completed several difficult actions on the prairie war horses before.

Although she had contributed a lot to saving the town, saving the lives of their generals, and saving the lives of the remaining soldiers after she joined, she couldn't be such a villain if taking it for herself was considered stealing.

But the general hadn't woken up yet, so Lieutenant General Lin just excused himself by saying that he couldn't make the decision, so she could only stay patiently at the general's residence for the night.

In order to achieve her wish as soon as possible and rush to the next mission point, she even used the best healing medicine given to her by Zhou Yanlan, applied her Jiu Zhi Powder, and took the magical anti-inflammatory medicine internally. She believed that the general would definitely wake up tomorrow.

And she was very sincere. She had already taken some daily necessities and fine grains and donated them to injured soldiers, the elderly, and children free of charge.

She saved all those soldiers who were dying.

Putting all the merits together, it was possible for her to ask for all the war horses, but she couldn't be too greedy and always left some way for others to survive, so she didn't ask for fifty horses like a lion.

The system rolled its eyes wildly. The total number of war horses captured by others was only about 100, and she wanted half of them. Why is her face so big?
