The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

Chapter 2435: After breaking the city

That touch of warmth on the battlefield cannot erase the ferociousness of the battlefield. Due to the desperate resistance made by the white skins of the Bratislava Castle, the South China Army and the Imperial Army suffered a lot of losses, triggering their hostility.

As a result, the white-skinned prisoners of war that fell into their hands were beaten, scolded, or even killed. Most of the white-skinned prisoners did not surrender, but some surrendered. If they were honest, they might be beaten and scolded and their lives would be saved. If you are not satisfied, then those people will be reimbursed!

As for the wounded, they were all stabbed to the ground!

There were 23,000 garrisons in the city, more than 3,000 non-soldiers, and only more than 1,000 captives. The rest had seen their gods.

More than 3,000 troops of the South China Army were killed in battle, and more than 1,000 would be abolished. They must retire, and there are more than 5,000 lightly wounded people who can return to the team.

The Imperial Army also suffered losses, killing more than 1,000 people and wounding more than 3,000.

Generally, when our army is dominant, the ratio of the South China Army to the Imperial Union Army is 7 to 3, and at most 8 to 2. This is a military system regulation, which clearly states that the Imperial Union Army can only be used as reserve and second-line guards. , Should not be used as the main force.

Not using the Imperial Union Army as cannon fodder is a military system, and it is a civil administration that does not allow the use of slaves within the two Chinas. If these two regulations are let go, then the Imperial Union Army and slaves are very fragrant.

The reason is very simple and the cost is low.

One official soldier can raise three or four imperial consortium troops. Slaves are more fragrant and don’t need to be paid. If it weren’t for the empire that promulgated the minimum standard of living for overseas workers (in fact, slaves) after the minimum wage was promulgated, those The black-hearted merchants are afraid of using the slaves to death, that is, the less living expenses for the slaves, the better, and the more work, the better.

If the Imperial Union army was used in large quantities and the domestic slaves were used in large quantities, what happened after ancient Rome used foreign soldiers and slaves. Eventually foreign soldiers took power, and the slaves would cause national bankruptcy. As a lesson, Yan Changwu would never allow it.

The castle won was a majestic city, and any previous dynasty had achieved such a great result, I am afraid that the number of casualties would have to double or even more.

The South China Army has stronger firepower, better armor and a first-class battlefield hospital system than before, saving the lives of a large number of soldiers.

Commander Zeng Ying went to the wounded camp to visit the wounded soldiers, sent them condolences including cigarettes and candies, and awarded them various medals.

This is a prescribed action, and the leader of a unit must care about disabled soldiers and record it in the ledger.

Ledger!

The South China Empire is very different from the previous dynasty. It pays attention to keeping the bottom of things, and the bottom is signed by people from different departments. For example, visiting the wounded is a job to encourage morale and is managed by the Political Department. It is in the military system of the empire. The Political Department, the General Staff Department, and the Intelligence Department implement dual leadership, that is, they are under the command of the highest commander of the unit and the leadership of the higher-level business department. The top commander of the unit has the right to make recommendations for the deputies. No decision.

With multiple constraints, the officers do what they should do honestly instead of perfunctory, and they don't have any unreasonable thoughts.

Those disabled soldiers are very unhappy, but neither decadent nor frustrated, because they know that the emperor cares about them and the empire supports them!

Severely disabled soldiers enter the Les Invalides, and they have no worries about food and clothing. For ordinary disabled soldiers, the Empire will introduce them to easy jobs. Now the Empire has issued a decree that has requirements for enterprises, that is, the hiring of disabled soldiers can reduce taxes. , If you don’t hire, you have to pay, and the money is still considerable.

Not only that, the hiring of disabled soldiers will also involve the business owner and the reputation of the company. For example, the annual selection of model workers, justices of the peace, etc. will have bonus points and deductions.

As for the government offices, public institutions, and "state-owned" enterprises of the South China Empire, they thoroughly implemented the national laws and provided good care for the disabled and retired soldiers.

After seeing the disabled and the wounded, Zeng Ying returned to the west wall of the castle and saw that the soldiers and civilians were enthusiastically repairing the positions where the gaps had been blasted. Due to the rush of time, they could not use huge rocks to build the walls, they could only adopt Chinese style. The method of building a city. The ancient Chinese city wall was made of soil. It was compacted and built with rammed earth. The local loess or black soil was used to ram firmly, and the walls were punched layer by layer, each layer to a thickness of fifteen centimeters. thickness of.

This is how to repair the castle wall, but the outer skin needs to be covered with bricks or stone to form a brick wall to reinforce the city defense.

The engineer battalion officers who were commanding the project saw that the commander was coming, so they came to report their work. Zeng Ying waved his hands and said, "You are experts, I listen to you!"

Zhang Dawei, who made meritorious service for breaking the city this time, introduced to Zeng Ying that since the newly built city wall is definitely not strong, it is necessary to build an urn city. Yes, but everyone works in three shifts and promises to complete the task!

Their work is so intense that they even started repairing the city wall three hours after the city was broken~www.wuxiaspot.com~ That is to say, the city is still fighting, and I have a premonition.

"Very well, I have confidence in you!" Zeng Ying said cheerfully.

But in his heart he was thinking why it was so painful. Before, he tried his best to break the city, but now he has to work hard to replenish the wall. If the white skins don't resist, it will be fine!

It's impossible to think about it. If this is the case, there will be no use for soldiers.

He had seen the construction site, and then entered the first floor of a still-preserved arrow tower on the inner city wall on the west side. The second and third floors above it had been destroyed by artillery shells.

As night fell, after a full twelve hours of fighting, the soldiers cleared out the defenders in the city, and could finally stop to rest and eat.

The orderly soldiers spread the food delivered from outside the city on the table on the first floor of the arrow tower. It was curry chicken rice, and sweet and sour pork ribs!

Golden chicken curry, Indian style, the chicken is tender and refreshing, the curry flavor is full, and the sweet and sour pork ribs are full of color and fragrance, which is appetizing. It is a good meal after the war!

Other soldiers do not have such good food, but the military cooks adapt to local conditions and provide them with appetizing and delicious food, such as soft rice, noodles, simmered seeds, stir-fried vegetables, etc., and there are large barrels of pickles and mustard to the front line to supply soldiers. We eat and will never treat them badly.

The high-ranking officers arrived one after another. In addition to the party Shousu and Ma Bao on the front line, a comrade Dou Mingwang came, and he sent cigars to everyone with a spring breeze: "Hello, brothers! Congratulations, big brothers for laying down the castle. My business!"

"Okay, okay!" Everyone sneered, taking the cigarettes, watching the birdman with a large cigar in his mouth, and determined to boycott him together and not let him defend the city!
