With the entire army annihilated, Zhao Kaishan became even more angry.
He ordered the entire army to attack without stopping, claiming that although the losses of the Liberation Army were heavy, the losses of the Jin Army were even more heavy.
From now on, at least one attack must be launched every hour. Each army takes turns to attack. The attack must not be stopped as long as it is still light.
Not to mention Zhao Yucheng and Li Xiao, even Zhao Xiang felt a little struggling.
Because of the existence of the city wall, the casualties of the Guangfu Army were much greater than those of the Jin Army. Basically, killing one Jin soldier cost four or five lives of the Guangfu Army.
As a result, the number of casualties of the Liberation Army increased rapidly, and the number of wounded soldiers who temporarily lost their combat effectiveness and permanently lost their combat effectiveness due to injuries also continued to expand.
The earth-shaking screams made many soldiers who had not yet gone to the battlefield feel anxious.
The poor medical and health facilities of the Liberation Army made the mortality rate of wounded soldiers very terrible.
Not every army pays attention to building medical and health facilities and sets up specialized field medical teams like Su Yonglin.
Because there is basically no concept of medical care, a military doctor basically needs to deal with more than 800 Liberation Army soldiers. The manpower cannot be arranged at all, and the medicinal materials are not enough.
Someone in the logistics department told Zhao Kaishan about this matter, hoping that Zhao Kaishan would think of a way to increase manpower and save more people.
Zhao Kaishan waved his hand impatiently.
"You should figure out a solution for such a small matter on your own. Don't come to me. I have more things to do."
This kind of thing is indeed nothing in Zhao Kaishan's opinion.
In his consciousness, or in the consciousness of people at the same level as him, the lower-class soldiers were not even of the same race as them.
The lives of the soldiers at the bottom are as cheap as grass. If you don't have them, you can just continue to recruit them. The Liberation Army will not be short of soldiers for anything. Once the flag is raised, people will naturally come to join them. If they are dead, they can just recruit them.
Because there is no shortage, it is not valued, let alone important.
But if the city cannot be taken, the entire strategy will have problems, and the life and death of the Liberation Army will also be a big problem. How can the two be compared together?
The people in the logistics department had no choice but to find ways to collect herbs for the wounded soldiers to use, saving every one they could.
But in the face of the increasing number of wounded soldiers, this herbal medicine is only a drop in the bucket. Fortunately, the weather is getting colder, which has suppressed the speed and probability of wound inflammation and infection. Otherwise, the number of deaths in the wounded soldier camp would be very terrible.
Despite this, from mid-to-late October to early November, which lasted about 20 days, the Liberation Army also lost about 4,000 people, with hundreds of people killed every day.
And this number does not include the number of people who died because their injuries worsened because they did not receive medical treatment.
Counting this number of people, the losses of this part of the Liberation Army led by Zhao Kaishan were very large.
Of course, correspondingly, under such a high-intensity attack by the Liberation Army, the Jin soldiers in Nanle County were also severely damaged.
According to Pu Chasixiang's rough statistics, the number of female real soldiers killed in the city exceeded one thousand, and even more were injured and lost combat effectiveness, which was several times the number of those killed in battle.
The number of Jurchen soldiers could no longer guarantee the defensive task of the four walls, and the Han signed troops were forced to take up the main defense role.
Pu Chasixiang did not expect that the Liberation Army's siege operations would be so ferocious and their attacks would be so ferocious. The siege was almost non-stop day and night, which put great pressure on him.
Don't they care about casualties?
Are they really indifferent to casualties?
He really needs reinforcements to calm him down now, otherwise he will panic, let alone the soldiers who are frightened and have lost their fighting spirit. He doesn't even know if this battle is meaningful.
Not to mention, Li Zhong, the governor of Daming Prefecture, really didn't treat Pu Chasi Xiang as a scapegoat.
He really wanted to lead troops to assist Pu Chasi Xiang, thereby resolving the siege of Nanle.
However, the reinforcements he expected were delayed, and the remaining troops were only enough to protect themselves, not enough to lift the siege of Nanle.
If he takes these people to save Nanle City, it will be tantamount to stepping directly into the path of reincarnation.
He has already submitted more than twenty reports asking for help to the court. Now he is looking forward to the stars and the moon, hoping that the court's reinforcements will arrive as soon as possible. Otherwise, once Nanle County is breached, the entire Daming Mansion will be in real danger.
It's a pity that the imperial reinforcements he hoped for did not regard Daming Mansion as the first aid target at this moment.
Because the first series of aid targets are in Hebei.
Zhending Mansion and Hejian Mansion are the objects that the Jinting Central Committee urgently needs to protect.
This place is closer to the heart of Zhongdu Mansion and the Kingdom of Jin, and it is more urgent.
Facing the emergency of Daming Prefecture, Jin Ting's general opinion was to let them find local troops for help, find a way to lift the siege, and persist. If they persist until the end, they will be rewarded heavily.
Compared with Zhending Mansion and Hejian Mansion, Daming Mansion can only be ranked at the back.
The limited resources that the court can currently mobilize must be used where they are most needed, such as Hebei.
Of course, the main contributor to this achievement is Su Yonglin.
Su Yonglin led his army to invade Jizhou, Hebei Province in early October. With Zaoqiang County as his base camp, he sent his army to attack in all directions with great momentum.
News of the Great Uprising of the Liberation Army in Shandong had reached Hebei a few months ago. People in Hebei were very concerned about the news of the Great Uprising in Shandong, and prominent figures from all over the country were paying attention to the news.
They have different views on the Shandong Uprising.
After Su Yonglin's early mobilization, not to mention Zhao Kaishan, Sun Ziyi and Su Yonglin used their own propaganda power to enter Hebei to promote the rebellion, gain a public opinion base, and manage Hebei in advance.
After the Liberation Army marched into the Hebei region in a large scale, basically wherever the Liberation Army attacked, the powerful Han landlords who were dissatisfied with Jin Ting swarmed towards the Liberation Army.
They all raised the banner of the Liberation Army one after another, followed the Liberation Army to attack cities and territories, massacred Jurchen villages and established strong defenses.
The landlords in some places were even more vigorously armed. Even without the arrival of the Liberation Army, they raised the banner of the Liberation Army, elected their own leaders, took out their private weapons and armed troops, and launched a fierce attack on the nearby Jurchen villages and towns. .
In just a short period of time after Su Yonglin entered Hebei, the states and counties south of Zhending Prefecture almost wiped out the local Jurchen household registrations, uprooted the official power of the Jin Kingdom and seized power.
It can be said that he is full of martial virtue.
Jinting had seven Meng'an on Hebei East Road and six Meng'an on Hebei West Road. The total number of Jurchen households was about 40,000 households and 400,000 people, of which less than 200,000 Jurchen households were registered.
Such a scale is really not that powerful. It is divided into two areas, and is mainly concentrated in Zhending Prefecture and Hejian Prefecture. The surrounding areas are relatively sparse and not very large.
And so many Jurchens in Shandong were unable to stop the advance of the Liberation Army, and the ones in Hebei were even more unable to stop them. The martial virtues had declined completely, and they were simply in ruins.
Even if he is deposed, he is very greedy and is used to pretending to be powerful. It is not an accident that the local Jurchen household registration and the Han household registration are competing for land. The government has no power to manage the Meng'an Mou Ke household and it is difficult to deal with it, which leads to rising public dissatisfaction.
So when Su Yonglin led the army into Hebei West Road under the banner of "Expelling the Hulu and Restoring China", the local forces in Hebei could not say that they were ready to welcome the king's division, but they were not too far off.
When their core interests are violated, any bit of promotional news is enough to prompt them to rise up and resist.
From mid-to-late October, Shengjie's army swept through several state capitals such as Shenzhou, Wozhou, Xingzhou, and Luozhou. Su Yonglin led the main force of Shengjie's army directly to Zhendingfu, an important town on Hebei West Road.
The stronger the momentum of the victorious army, the more fierce the local forces that had long been dissatisfied became.
They often mobilized and organized before and after the Shengjie Army arrived. A group of people cooperated internally and externally, killed the county magistrate, captured the county seat, obtained weapons and equipment, and then joined the Shengjie Army to attack other Jin Army military strongholds.
The large number of people in the uprising made Su Yonglin even think that Hebei was a hell on earth and was being exploited particularly cruelly by the Jin Kingdom.
However, the Jin Kingdom's exploitation of Hebei was actually average and not particularly cruel. The reason why the uprising here was particularly violent may be that the victory in Shandong made the locals have strange thoughts.
