From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 1077

The heavy rain came quickly and went away quickly. When the rain stopped, the east finally showed light.

Dawn had arrived, but the earth was still busy.

The wounded entered the medical tent one after another, and were arranged to other tents after being cured.

The seriously injured soldiers of the Tsarist Empire were also rescued, which made many soldiers dissatisfied, and even quarreled outside the medical tent.

Zhou Yuan came over in person, and everyone finally quieted down.

He looked at everyone present coldly and said in a deep voice: "What are you quarreling about? It is my order to treat their injuries. If you have any dissatisfaction, come to me! What's the point of quarreling here one by one!"

The soldiers knelt down in a hurry, their faces pale with fear.

They have followed Zhou Yuan since Miyun Lake. After so many years of life and death, Zhou Yuan's prestige has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Zhou Yuan stood on a high place and shouted: "More than 20,000 prisoners and so many wounded, who wants to kill them? I'll let him kill them all by himself!"

"I have my own considerations on how to treat prisoners. If anyone has any opinions, please speak up!"

"If you don't have any opinions, go back to your tent. If you delay the nursing team from rescuing people, I'll punish you with military sticks!"

A small episode passed quickly, and Luo Kun whispered: "General Jie, these are trivial matters, but the second wife has been busy all night..."

Zhou Yuan glanced at the tent and shook his head: "She knows what she should do. This is I can't force her choice."

"You and Daguang should sort out the military discipline together. We can't mess up the morale of the army at this time."

"Rest today. Tomorrow we will set out for the Heshi area to fight a decisive battle with Gumanyev. Except for the seriously injured who can't participate in the battle, everyone else must go."

"The medical team should be able to complete the treatment of the wounded today, and the subsequent recuperation stage will be handed over to the military doctors."

"You pass the order down and be prepared. We..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Yuan strode forward.

Luo Kun was about to speak, but saw the second wife squatting behind the tent, so he didn't dare to interrupt.

Xue Ningyue almost vomited out all her bitterness. She was covered in blood, her face was pale, and even her breathing was extremely rapid.

Zhou Yuan supported her and whispered, "Take a rest if you are tired."

When Xue Ningyue saw Zhou Yuan, all her emotions could not be held back for a while. She threw herself into his arms and cried softly.

Zhou Yuan stroked her back without saying anything, giving her time to vent.

But Ningyue only cried for a few dozen breaths, then wiped her tears and calmed down.

She looked at Zhou Yuan, smiled embarrassedly, and said, "There are too many wounded, we are too busy, and... seeing those people in such a miserable state is also very worrying."

Zhou Yuan nodded and said, "There are also quarrels, stench, and countless troubles."

"Well..."

Xue Ningyue said, "But it was all caused by the war, Brother Zhou, when I treated the wounds of those white people, they didn't quarrel or make a fuss, but kowtowed to us."

"What I want to say is... In fact, they are also poor people. They came far away from their hometown to fight, and how many of them can go back?"

"I'm not soft-hearted, I... I just think that war is too terrible. If everyone lives in peace, the world should be a beautiful place."

Zhou Yuan gently wiped her 's face, nodded and said: "Yes, although I am in the position of commander, I still hope that there will be no war in this world, Ningyue, we work so hard for this goal."

"I understand."

She giggled and whispered: "I have always believed in you, Brother Zhou, you will definitely win."

Zhou Yuan held her hand and said: "Unlike before, this time we are fighting side by side."

Ningyue broke free from his hand and smiled helplessly: "So I have to be busy again. No one has time to rest, and I can't be lazy."

"Don't worry about me, Brother Zhou, just concentrate on fighting, I can hold on."

She gave Zhou Yuan a firm look and returned to the tent.

Looking at her back, Zhou Yuan was in a trance and couldn't help laughing again.

Ningyue, exceeded everyone's expectations.

No one thought she could hold on, but she held on, and did a good job.

Maybe she herself didn't believe she could do this, but she did it after all...

Courage is the extraordinary of human heart.

...

"Got it."

Huang Taiji responded to the spy's words lightly, and then fell into deep thought.

Buyanggu frowned and said, "What should we do now? We hide here and there, and calculate over and over again, in order to give them a head-on blow when Gumanyev retreats, and lock them with all our strength."

"But now the other party is not coming back at all, but heading towards Heshi. We are completely marginalized.. "

"I've thought so much, but it's all in vain."

Huang Taiji didn't say anything, just looked at the gloomy sky, and said slowly: "Give Guan Lu a reply."

The spy of the Divine Bird nodded slightly.

Huang Taiji said: "We will not move because of the changes in Gumanyev's military operations. We will still stick to this place."

The spy of the Divine Bird nodded and left directly.

Buyang Gudao couldn't help but said: "We are still here? What can we wait for?"

Huang Taiji waved his hand and said: "Don't be anxious in the war. Asujiangwei and Tuduhewei will always be important strongholds in this battle. As long as we are here, we have the opportunity to strangle the opponent's throat."

"The current decisive battle in Heshi is just a guess, not necessarily a fact."

"Even if Gumanyev's reserve is there, it can't play a decisive role. After all, Zhou Yuan has hoarded 100,000 people there."

He took a deep breath and said slowly: "Wait! Wait for an opportunity! "

...

Another dark day.

After chasing for so long, both the soldiers of the Beijing Camp and Gumanyev have reached the limit of their physical strength.

As if they had discussed it, both sides stopped at the same time, set up camp, and rested.

Perhaps it was because of the weather. In the afternoon, the wind blew non-stop. At night, the dark clouds had settled down. Even a fool knew that a rainstorm was coming.

In this situation, if you still rush to the limit of your physical strength, it will cause big problems.

"Our 60,000 reserve troops are all elite, plus more than 70,000 people on our side, adding up to more than 130,000, which is enough to beat them to pieces."

The adjutant analyzed the situation and said in a deep voice: "Andrei is holding on to Meishan. The other side must send at least 100,000 people to guard, otherwise they can't be surrounded. Then... According to the prior intelligence, it can be estimated that they can gather at most 100,000 troops in Heshi."

"Plus the more than 40,000 transferred from Songhua Lake... No, they also had casualties last night, and now there are more than 30,000. ”

“After all, they are equal to us in strength, so we don’t need to be afraid of anything.”

“Fight them! Have a decisive battle!”

After saying that, the adjutant looked at Gumanyev flatteringly and said with a smile: “Sir, am I right!”

Gumanyev said: “Get lost!”

“Okay… okay…”

The adjutant was sweating all over, thinking… Sir, don’t you like to flatter me? Why didn’t you flatter me this time?

Gumanyev took a big sip of wine and went into his tent with a whip.

Four or five women, wearing sexy leather clothes, were already standing in a row, shivering.

Gumanyev showed a gloomy and twisted smile on his face, picked up the whip and started beating, making four or five women scream and cry.

“Sir… If we win this decisive battle, can we go home? "

The delicate woman asked.

Gumanyev's face changed, and he grabbed her and shouted: "You want to leave! You want to leave, right!"

The woman's expression was distorted with pain, and she cried: "Sir, spare me... I, I didn't mean that..."

Gumanyev gritted his teeth and said: "Who said I want to fight a decisive battle? I will never give up on Lieutenant Colonel Andrei, understand?"
