Chapter 178: Battle loss ratio

"Damn it, unreasonable, whoever makes them retreat should be cut one by one."

The furious Fang Guoan had already begun to talk nonsense, and now the whole army was retreating. He really wanted to behead people. I'm afraid he will die first.

"General, let's withdraw back to Guangde quickly, let's consider the long-term plan."

The subordinates persuaded that although Wu Jun did not pursue him, he would lose if he lost, and they would be afraid if they lost.

Fang Guoan wanted to swear a few more words, and ask the guy who said about the long-term plan, how should he use the long-term plan?

I couldn't grasp such a good opportunity to ambush. When I returned to Guangde County, I could defend it from the long-term plan?

This battle is really impossible to fight.

Fang Guoan felt tired for a while, and he didn't have such a sense of powerlessness when facing the Qing army. Although the Qing army was also strong, he at least saw the gap between the two sides clearly.

However, Wu Jun's power was so powerful that he couldn't see through it and couldn't find a way to fight.

"Try to keep the troops together and withdraw to Guangde first."

Fang Guoan sighed.

With the retreat of the Ming army, Liu Hansan also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they had the upper hand from the beginning of the war, Liu Hansan was unwilling to fight in this kind of battle, and the loss was too great.

If it is a sunny day, in a wide area, he can hit the loss ratio to 1 to 10. But in the hand-to-hand combat just now, their loss ratio was at most 1:2 to 1:3.

Everyone is flesh and blood, and it's hard to survive if stabbed.

The Ming army retreated, and Wu Jun began to clean the battlefield.

Those dead bodies need to be buried. This is the basic human nature of generals.

If these corpses are not buried, plague is extremely prone to occur. In the event of a plague, the number of civilians who will die depends on God's will. At least a few villages will die, and at most, several surrounding towns will die.

Under normal circumstances, when the enemy is cleaning the battlefield and burying corpses, even if there is a chance for a sneak attack, everyone will give up the attack for moral reasons.

This is an unwritten rule on the battlefield. It is the same as the two armies fighting without cutting. Although occasionally someone will violate it, most of the time everyone will follow it.

After cleaning the battlefield, Liu Hansan also got the battle damage statistics.

In this battle, they lost a total of more than 1,700 people, of which more than 1,300 were killed in the battle, nearly 400 were seriously injured, and there are no statistics on the slightly injured.

There are less than 20,000 of them in total, which is close to a 10% loss, which can be described as a hard battle, a fierce battle.

In addition to the loss of nearly two thousand soldiers, they also damaged a large number of guns.

Although those guns can also be used for hand-to-hand combat, their strength is definitely not comparable to that of a big knife. More people with big knives can easily roll the blade, and these guns equipped with bayonet can easily damage the barrel and other parts in the process of assassination.

Those barrels can't be used anymore if they are deformed a little bit, otherwise they will explode.

There are also those bows and arrows that were used forcibly in the rain. After this battle, they were all damp. It is estimated that they will be scrapped soon.

In the melee, some supplies were also destroyed, such as gunpowder and matchlock.

The gunpowder was wrapped in leather, but was destroyed by the Ming army during the melee, causing a large amount of gunpowder to be flooded and damp.

"What about the enemy's loss?"

Liu Hansan gritted his teeth and asked, the loss this time was great. When the report is sent to Wu Changqing, he may not receive any substantive punishment, but it will definitely leave Wu Changqing with an impression of incompetence and affect his future career promotion. .

"The enemy left a total of more than 2,700 corpses, and more than 400 wounded soldiers. In addition, the enemy will lose some soldiers when they flee. It is estimated that the total loss of the enemy is about 5,000."

The guy in charge of statistics is also a clever man, trying to expand the enemy's losses as much as possible, so as to cover up the ambush among them.

In the midst of ambush, he can still score a one-to-two battle loss, which is already quite a remarkable result.

Hearing the loss of the enemy army, Liu Hansan finally breathed a sigh of relief. This battle damage ratio was not bad, and it could slightly make up for the ambush.

"Accelerate, and you must arrive in Taozhou Town before dark. Order to go down and let the brothers rest for two days when they arrive in Taozhou."

Liu Hansan said.

He didn't dare to spend the night here, lest he let the troops catch the plague. Moreover, many soldiers who have received minor injuries, and those who have caught a cold and fever, need to go to the town for treatment.

If these minor illnesses are not treated in time, they can easily deteriorate into hopeless illnesses.

The order was given, and the soldiers gritted their teeth to speed up the march. After all, they don't want to spend the night in the countryside of this mountain.

Speeding up the march, they finally rushed to Taozhou Town before dark.

Immediately afterwards, the people of Taozhou Town suffered. These cold and hungry soldiers will no longer continue to obey orders not to disturb the people.

They dare not do things like burning, killing, looting, and insulting women that require beheading, but they force the villagers to boil water for a bath, ask for a bowl or two of **** soup, eat a villager’s chickens and ducks, and occupy the bed and bedding. But Liu Hansan There is no prohibition.

In his opinion, Wu Changqing loved the people too much, and soldiers were the root. If you don't wait for the soldiers under your hand, the soldiers won't go to their lives. What's the use of the people's love alone.

Wu Jun disturbed the people for the first time. In fact, the people here were not too angry. Because, compared with other armies, Wu Jun’s harassment of the people is not bad, and it is very restrained.

Just providing some services and food, not robbing them of their money, and not **** their wives and daughters, this is acceptable to the people.

Human needs are closely related to the current state of society.

Ordinary people in later generations will demand dignity, privacy, property inviolability, etc., but the people of this era are satisfied if they can live with a little dignity.

I've been occupied by soldiers for a few days, little things, little things, little things.

Wu Jun rested in Taozhou Town, and Fang Guoan also fled back to Guangde to lick his wounds.

The number of soldiers they lost and escaped was not as many as Wu Jun had estimated, but they were not much worse. In this ambush, they lost a total of more than 4,500 people.

Today, there are only more than 8,000 soldiers in Guangde City, of which only more than 5,000 are veterans, and the other more than 2,000 are unskilled troops.

Before the change, relying on these forces, and then forcing some young men to defend the city, it can last a long time.

But now, Wu Jun has cannons and muskets. The traditional way of defending the city in the past is completely out of date. As soon as the cannon blasted, the young and strong would pee their pants, and could not count on it.

Even the two thousand miscellaneous troops are not reliable. Once they are inferior, they will easily collapse.

Relying on those five thousand people alone, how can you hold on to it?

Fang Guoan sighed, and the whole person was lost in confusion. I am confused about the current situation, and I am also confused about the future.
