The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 281

[Chapter 278 Post-War Trivia 1]

So when they see that they are about to change their fate, become a person above others, and enjoy their rich and noble life in the future, how can they be the same as before when their worth is different?

Like a mud leg, on the battlefield, desperately trying to survive!

Having money and having no money, having power and having no power, are two completely different treatments and ideas.

There is nothing, naturally don’t care, dare to take a cheap life to fight, to break through.

But most of these soldiers now have some worth, or they are rewarded with money, or rewarded with land, or with titles. With these, how can they be willing to fight for their lives!

Not to mention their generals, many of them have received the monarch’s reward, and are waiting for the reward to go to the territory to take office.

How can you stay here and continue to risk your own death and the collapse of the country to do things that are meaningless to you for the sake of the victory of the coalition forces!

So, the war ended in such an anticlimactic manner.

After the reward order was issued, the coalition forces were unstoppable in the early stage like a violent storm, but in the later stage, it was like a drizzle, unable to do what they wanted.

At the beginning, the violent and irresistible turbulent offensive of the coalition army really blinded the Qin army and caused them to start a large-scale rout.

However, it is a pity that if these coalition forces can work harder and pursue more kills when the Qin army is finally defeated, the final casualties of the Qin army will definitely be greater.

Unlike now, there are still 30,000 Qin troops who fled back to the camp, were gathered up by Wang Jian’s army, slowly regained their morale and fighting spirit, and continued to prepare for war.

Today’s battle was extremely tragic. The Qin army could be said to have returned from a big defeat, and even pawned their pants, which was beyond the expectations of everyone in the world.

It is reported that after the news reached Xianyang, Qinhuangdao threw the memorial he was reviewing on the ground on the spot, pulled out his long sword, cut off the table and chairs, and said nothing.

Even above the court, many high-ranking officials and nobles of the Qin state were frightened by this news. They could hardly imagine that the invincible Qin army would turn defeat into victory for a group of defeated troops, and even lose their helmets. A, the piece of armor is gone.

The rear of Qin State was in a panic, but after all, there was no trouble. They understood that Qin State still had a great advantage in the central battlefield, even if Qin State lost 170,000 troops this time.

But counting the 30,000 people who fled back, and the 150,000 troops that had been left behind in the Qin army camp, there were still 180,000 people in the Qin army.

Such a military force is still very powerful and cannot be ignored by everyone.

As for the opposing coalition, even if they were victorious, their own casualties were very heavy.

After all, it was only when the coalition army was defeated that it received a reward order, so it turned defeat into victory and defeated the Qin army in one fell swoop.

Before receiving the reward order, the coalition forces suffered heavy losses, nearly losing 100,000 troops, which caused them to be on the verge of collapse.

Just after that, even if he received the reward order and the coalition turned defeat into victory, his own casualties could not be ignored, and he also killed and injured nearly 20,000 people.

The remaining coalition forces, including minor injuries, barely retained more than 30,000 combat power.

Therefore, the coalition army now, the whole army added up, is actually only barely 100,000 people, even if their morale is very high now, and the survivors are some elites, but their strength is still nearly double that of the Qin army. gap.

The total number of 80,000 people is poor, and it cannot be ignored casually. If the coalition forces want to win, they must plan from other aspects.

The only advantage of the coalition forces now is that the Qin army has suffered a major defeat, and their morale is low, so they don’t have the slightest concern, right?

This can give the coalition some respite.

After all, the main purpose of the coalition now is not to break the Qin army on the opposite side, but to delay the time and wait for reinforcements from both the north and the south to arrive.

At that time, the six countries joined forces to drive away Wang Jian on the opposite side, and completely beat the forces of the Qin army back into Hangu Pass.

If possible, the coalition forces would not mind taking Hangu Pass, invaded the basic territory of Qin State, namely Xianyang in Guanzhong, and completely destroyed Qin State, a terrifying war machine, a deformed creature to the world.

So now, whether it is the coalition army or Wang Jian’s Qin army, they all have a very tacit understanding, and they have chosen the path of recuperating and recuperating.

The Qin army needed this time to restore their sluggish morale and reinvigorate their will to fight, and the allied army also needed this time to recuperate. The long war had left them lingering for a long time, and some were out of breath.

Moreover, a large number of wounded soldiers in the coalition barracks, 20,000 out of 10,000 people, were injured, even the seriously wounded were given a happy,

But the remaining minor wounded also need a week or even a month or two of recovery before they can continue to go to the battlefield.

Therefore, the border between Han and Qin, which had been stretched by the war for more than two months, finally ushered in a brief period of peace, and it also let the surrounding people who fled into the deep mountains breathed a sigh of relief.

Yes, there is nothing wrong, even if the army is fighting, there are still some people living around.

However, these people did not live in the plains, but plunged into the mountainous areas of the border, hid in the deep mountains and forests, and escaped the war.

Because they understand that if they continue to stay in place, they will not be forced by Qin and the coalition forces, or they will wantonly loot food, or even kill them directly.

Rather than choose this outcome, it is better to escape into the mountains.

Even if the life is a little hard, and there is a possibility of being harmed by beasts at any time, it is still much better than those human-shaped killing machines.

So those ordinary people took advantage of this period of the army to recuperate and gather their wings. When there was no army around, some of them escaped and searched for some daily necessities in those abandoned villages and towns, such as clothes and iron pots.

Or other weapons or something, as well as salt and the like, these are things that must be used even if they escape into the mountains and are isolated from the world.

Although the war rested, the Qin army and the coalition forces, their high-level officials, had no chance to rest.

When the army is on an expedition, there are too many things to deal with, whether it is post-war pensions, rewards for meritorious soldiers, logistical support, punishments for violations of discipline, or even dealing with the censures of those countries behind you, all of which require too much, too much. energy.

If nothing else, the current coalition forces are facing a very serious problem.

The reason why the coalition forces were able to show an unprecedented fighting will before was not because the land was rewarded for temptation.

But now that the victory has been won and the Qin army has been defeated, it is time to talk about the reward.
