sweeping the world

Chapter 185 Shocking Discovery!
The battle of Duchang, which lasted eleven days, was over. Judging by the time and casualties, the cost for the Han tribe to capture Duchang City was not high, but this battlefield was really strangely dull.

In the follow-up, the Han Dynasty needed to clean up the scattered non-local personnel in the city, and naturally continued to clean up the corpses in the city during the period.

In the following four days, counting the previous number, the corpses they removed from Duchang City reached [-], of which [-] to [-] died in a new offensive and defensive battle. The freshness is obviously longer.

The corpses that have been continuously transported out of the city will be burned to ashes on the side belonging to the Han Dynasty, and will be transported to the Huangyi Island District to wait for the completion of the Martyrs' Garden for unified placement.The corpses that do not belong to the Han side are more troublesome. Those that have long decayed or become skeletons will be dug and buried, while the fresh ones will be made into Jingguan with their heads, and the corpses will be hung in the woods somewhere.

"Isn't it enough to pile up the Jingguan?" Lu Yi seemed to be suffering from a cold, and he had to cough several times before he could finish his sentence: "The corpses should be burned and then buried. Including those half-rotten corpses, burn them all!"

The plague is like a sharp sword hanging in the air. There is a possibility of a plague outbreak in Duchang City. If you hang human meat on skewers to deter the enemy, it will increase the probability of a plague outbreak invisibly.

"Then burn it and cover it up." Liu Yan was not so persistent, mainly because he was really afraid of the plague, and said: "Chang Shi should rest well these few days, and there will be a big battle in ten and a half months. .”

In such an era without quick-acting medicines, it is not a funny thing to be killed by a cold and cough, so once you catch a cold, you are really on the edge of hell.

"The doctor said it was just a small wind-cold, and a few doses of medicine will cure the disease." Lu Yi himself was afraid of death, so he was reassured after repeated visits to confirm that it was really a small wind-cold.He said, "Captain Xu's cavalry army is in place?"

There are enemy troops approaching in Gaomi County, and the marching speed of this enemy army is not fast. They will set up camps after traveling thirty miles a day.

Xu Zheng returned to Changguang County with the cavalry. The people sent by Liu Yan had already entered Changguang County when they contacted them. They were going to defend the enemy from Gaomi County from invading Changguang County. Instead, he moved towards Beihai County after shaking it for a while.

Since the target of the enemy army in Gaomi County is not Changguang County, the strategy previously planned by the Han Department must have been adjusted. Liu Yan means that Gaomi County will be attacked sooner or later, so Duchang and Mr. Gong Tao The assembled enemy army of 3 people fought, with Xu Zheng as the general and Sang Yu as the long history, forming an army to invade Gaomi County.

There will be no fewer troops from the Han Dynasty to invade Gaomi County. There will be 1 regular cavalry and nearly 3 auxiliary cavalry. The Miaodao Islands and the Liaodong narrow peninsula will mobilize [-] newly formed troops, plus auxiliary soldiers and militiamen. The number of this division has reached [-], and it is much more pure in terms of "composition" than Liu Yan's troops. Those are all members of the Han tribe who have joined the Han tribe for a long time.

After Liu Yan's cavalry was transferred, there were [-] system soldiers, [-] regular troops, [-] newly attached troops, and nearly [-] slave troops.The number of auxiliary soldiers and militiamen is [-], but this number will always change.

The slave army is composed of prisoners of war after the surrender of those forces in Duchang City. They are supervised by the new attached army led by Wang Pu. of different laws.

There are too many classes in the Han Dynasty. The free people have the twentieth rank. The soldiers are divided into different troops, slave army, new attached army, servant army, auxiliary soldiers, soldiers, and elites. Each class has its own treatment. People deeply know how to fight for the "superior".

"Each meal only has porridge and a handful of pickles, and there is a limit." Wang Pu is eating steamed buns. His treatment is according to the commander of the soldiers, unlimited wheat steamed buns, a small plate of mutton, and a pot of deboned meat Soup: "Our soldiers here will have at least one steamed bun for every meal, and there is no limit to the soup. Before the war, there were three steamed buns and one salted fish."

Guan Huaixing is a new military marquis of the attached army, and his treatment is based on the rate of the soldiers. In addition to unlimited steamed buns, there is also a piece of salted fish. There is not much meat in the soup, but the soup has more oil.He was also gnawing steamed buns, and he gnawed so much that it was difficult to swallow them mixed with soup. He breathed a sigh of satisfaction, and said with relative longing: "We will soon change jobs and become servants."

"One more victory, just one more victory!" Wang Pu is more eager to win than anyone else: "Wait until you become a slave army, and it is not far from turning into a regular army. Then you will be able to record credit normally and get a title!"

Although he only joined the Han tribe not long ago, Wang Pu really worked hard to understand the system of the Han tribe. He found out that the social hierarchy of the Han tribe is very strict, and only those who become "gongmin" are eligible to participate in issues related to rights. some powers.

Of course Wang Pu is eager to have rights. He has another thing that is more urgent, that is, to make meritorious service and get rid of his family's slave status. If he doesn't wait for someone to be assigned as a slave, he will be in great trouble if he wants to redeem it.

Redeeming his family is only the first step. Wang Pu still wants to become a class of meritorious officials. Not only must he become a meritorious official, but he will also continue to climb up from the rank of official to become a superior, a hairpin, a buddy, a doctor... His ambition If you at least become a doctor, then you can become a school lieutenant in the regular army. By then, all your family members will have regained their freedom. After accumulating military achievements, your family should have a beautiful house and good land. If your heirs work harder, a new family will be even more powerful. It has a foothold.

Sure enough, everything is on the bright side, so that people know what kind of meritorious service they will get in exchange for what kind of treatment, so that people have a clear ideal of hard work.

Most people like Wang Pu plan for their future life. They have various goals of their own. What is more realistic is that if you want to change your destiny, you need to have wars. More wars will never happen. Will stop the next war.

"Hurry up and finish eating, what ceremony is going to be held over there!"

"ceremony?"

"Yes, it's the Convergence Ceremony!"

"convergence?"

Wang Pu swept away the food as quickly as possible. He knew that if he wanted to integrate into a new ethnic group, he needed to learn as much as possible!
It is the Convergence Ceremony, the kind of ceremony where the ashes of the soldiers who died in battle are put into jars and their names and numbers are written on them. (For details, please refer to Loujia Fanwai 10 related to the work)

Before Wang Pu arrived at the scene, he heard bursts of singing. It was the volume sung by thousands of people, and it sounded extremely solemn.

"It seems to be... "The First Emperor. Langya Ode"???"

"Yes, it is the "Langya Stone Carvings" written by the sage Li Si."

What is more puzzling is that they are obviously restraining the ashes of soldiers, okay?Shouldn't we choose some sad ones from "The Songs of Chu"?What is the special meaning of choosing "Ode to Langya"? ? ?

I really have to admit that "Ode to Langya" combined with the Huanghuang Zhengyin sounds like an inexplicable sense of solemnity, as if the waves of the long river of history are rolling in.

When Wang Pu arrived at the scene, the first thing he saw was the neatly arranged urns. It seemed that there were at least several thousand urns. If he wanted to know the exact number, he could only ask for it.

"So... we lost so many robes?" Wang Pu looked at the urns with a serious face, thinking in his heart: "It's not good to burn the ashes of the dead in battle, it should be buried with the whole body..."

Guan Huaixing suddenly leaned over and said to Wang Pu in a low voice, "Captain, I saw Song Ge's name."

Wang Pu was stunned when he heard that, and following Guan Huaixing's line of sight, he really saw an urn with the words "Song Ge" written on it.

Those arranged urns, if you carefully identify them, you can find that there are still differences. For example, some urns not only have names but also numbers written on them, while others only have names or numbers.

Not only did Wang Pu see a familiar name, but his expression became more solemn when he looked around. After all, he only focused on participating before, but seeing the ashes of soldiers who belonged to the new attached army got the ashes of soldiers, the feeling was not only participating, but also part of it. part of it.

Naturally, Liu Yan was also at the scene. He was dancing with the cooperation of some people. He was really dancing, but it was definitely not a graceful dance. It was a foundational dance similar to Nuo dance. white robe.

The foundation dance is a general term. Every place has its own Nuo dance with different dancing styles. Liu Yan only knew about it after traveling through time. The similar Nuo dance can’t be seen in Tian~chao in modern times. Instead, it’s in the surrounding areas. Some countries in the Chinese cultural circle, such as Bangzi Kingdom, Wa Kingdom, Jiaozhou Kingdom, etc., still retain similar customs and habits.

It is not funny that the superior needs to learn dance, because all kinds of sacrifices require the superior to lead the dance, and different sacrifices have different dances.

Isn't it just learning to dance?Liu Yan, whose body language is not bad, will not have any troubles. Besides, he is more eager to understand some customs that have been lost during the Tian~ Dynasty period. He is learning with a sense of enjoyment and will not feel impatient. .

Yes, not only the soldiers were commemorated, but as long as they participated in the attack and defense of Duchang City this time, as long as they belonged to the camp of the Han, their deaths would be restrained, and they would be placed in the Hall of Valor over Huangyi Island in the future.

"If the king establishes a country, he will enjoy the incense of thousands of families when he dies in battle?" Wang Pu found that his hands were shaking, not only his hands, but his whole body. is why.

Guan Huaixing was extremely excited, and tremblingly said: "To die in battle...to become a god!"

Regardless of Liu Yan's original intention in setting up the Hall of Valor, for countless people, only the gods are eligible to enjoy the incense of thousands of families, so the tablet accepts the incense and worship of the people, isn't it becoming a god?
