Hearing that there were as many as 70,000 dead soldiers, Luo Zhang was a little upset, but he had no choice but to think that he had just broken through at that time and was consolidating his cultivation. If he could have been released earlier, such a tragedy would not have happened.
"The pension for the 70,000 fallen soldiers must be paid in full. The court does not provide enough. I will pay for it from my own pocket. I will just order someone to go to Yan Lailou to get it. Tell him that I said it." Luo Zhang waved his hand and said, At first, he didn't care about the military situation. Instead, he first cared about the fallen soldiers, which made the generals in the tent feel warm in their hearts.
Luo Zhang did not deliberately win people's hearts, but whenever he led the team, he would never be harsh on the fallen soldiers. Every young man is the backbone of the family. If he dies, the sky will fall. If there is no certain How will these orphans and widowed mothers live their lives in the future?
The population of the Tang Dynasty is not enough. If another batch of orphans and widows die, the population will be even smaller. There will even be no food and drink. These ordinary people will cause civil riots. This is harsh for the fallen soldiers. fate.
The people did not rebel without reason. Anyone who doesn't want to live a good life must have a certain reason for doing so.
After settling the matter of the fallen soldiers, Luo Zhang discussed the matter of Changsun Wuji with the other generals.
According to what the generals said, Changsun Wuji was now stationed in Nanguang City, fifty miles away from them. This was the important northern city of Huguang. It was originally in their hands, but they lost their helmets in the previous battle. Abandoning Jia, they had to withdraw from Nanguang City, and even retreated again and again, withdrawing from the boundaries of Huguang, and could only station themselves in the edge areas.
There was no way, even the coach Li Xiaogong was seriously injured, and the morale of the soldiers was even lower. There was no point in continuing the fight. If they did not retreat, the price of forceful resistance would be the annihilation of the entire army.
Hearing this news, Luo Zhang's face was a little gloomy. He didn't expect that this old guy was still haunting him. He beat him to pieces in Chengdu. He didn't expect that not long after this, this old guy came back to life and started jumping around again. got up.
It's a shame that he didn't kill him at that time, leaving behind a disaster. But even if Luo Zhang wanted to keep him, he didn't have the ability to do so. He was surrounded by three innate strong men.
And Luo Zhang only had Lao Duwu and Sun Simiao here, and Sun Simiao was still seriously injured at the time, so it was impossible to pursue him.
Luo Zhang didn't want to let Sun Simiao and Lao Duwu take risks just because he killed the eldest Sun Wuji.
Luo Zhang looked at the map and wrote on it. The generals did not dare to show their anger and just stood in the tent.
They couldn't understand anything Luo Zhang drew on the map.
The main reason is that none of these generals have ever followed Luo Zhang. If it were Liu Renyuan, Liu Rengui and the others would be able to see what is drawn on the map.
By the time Luo Zhang finished painting, a stick of incense had passed, but the generals did not complain. They had no right to complain.
They have to admit defeat after a battle, and they also know that the general in front of them is a victorious general. He has never lost a battle since he led the army.
The title of God of War that was originally hung on Li Jing's head has now been taken up by Luo Zhang in front of him.
Even Li Jing had no objection to this. It was obvious that he recognized that Luo Zhang was stronger than him.
Even though Luo Zhang is very young, he can't stand up to his abilities. You have to admit this.
"Okay, come here!" Luo Zhang threw away the brush in his hand and called to the generals.
The generals immediately gathered around and stared at the map in front of Luo Zhang.
"Look, this is Nanguang City, and this is the Jialing River. The reason why Nanguang City is an important city has an inseparable relationship with the Jialing River!"
The generals couldn't help but nod their heads after hearing this, expressing their approval. With this river, the entire Huguang's materials can be connected from north to south, and transportation is very convenient. It is difficult for Nanguang City not to develop.
"Nanguang City is only five miles away from the Jialing River, and looking at the map, it's only three miles upstream!"
The generals nodded again, but they couldn't understand what Luo Zhang meant.
"Have you seen this dam? Give me a good rest today. Tomorrow, I will mobilize all the 130,000 troops. At night, divide them into five teams and assemble here. Everyone will give me a hand when they go. To carry two sandbags, horses and carriages are not allowed, you can only carry them on foot!" Luo Zhang finished speaking and glanced at everyone.
Sure enough, everyone blinked and wondered what Luo Zhang meant. Why couldn't they use carriages and horses, and everyone had to carry sandbags? What was going on?
