Chapter 439

Early in the morning, in the compound of the mercenary camp, 7000 Yang family soldiers stood in line according to their respective queues. In front of them were the bodies of 63 temporary auxiliary soldiers. Beside them, there were less than dozens of seriously injured comrades in arms carried by the single frame and hundreds of comrades in arms wrapped with bandages.

These are all the soldiers killed and injured in World War I last night.

Now all the people who died in the war were carried out, and the bodies were simply put on makeup, so that they didn't look so miserable. The other wounded comrades in arms were divided around. This scene made other auxiliary soldiers and temporary auxiliary soldiers confused and confused except the elite cold front.

Leng Feng needless to say, there have been instances of comrades' sacrifice in the previous war on xiaoryukyu island. You can see what happened by looking at this formation.

Auxiliary soldiers are better. When most people joined the army in the city, they heard about the death ceremony for their dead comrades in arms. They said that this can make their souls go to heaven and not suffer. They also said that this ceremony is called a memorial service. It's just that I've never really experienced it.

The temporary auxiliary soldiers were completely ignorant. They neither heard nor saw. At this moment, they stood there with an unidentified face.

Perhaps when they think about it, last night was a big victory. Why did they make everyone look solemn and stirring? What the hell is this?

In the eyes of others, they defeated 20000 enemies with less than 400 casualties, killed more than 5000 and captured more than 7000. Naturally, it is a great victory in a great victory. However, in the eyes of Leng Feng, this victory is nothing. Also, most of them used cold weapons yesterday. If they used the ninth five year plan, I'm afraid this war can't be regarded as a victory. It's just a draw at most.

Yang's troops gathered here. At the same time, all the 7000 prisoners to be said were escorted. According to Yang Chendong, this is to receive pre war education. If this method is used well, it will play an unexpected role.

All the personnel arrived. Luo Po, head of the second Lengfeng regiment, ran to Yang Chendong in a marshal's uniform and paid a very standard military salute: "Comrade leader, all the members participating in the memorial service have assembled. Please ask for instructions."

"Please take a moment." Yang Chendong said seriously. He put on the Marshal's clothes that had been put in the warehouse in order to show his respect for the ceremony. Just like Luo Po and a group of officers, they all changed their camouflage clothes for combat and put on their regular clothes to show their solemnity and majesty.

In fact, after these officers changed into their regular clothes, they really gave people a bright feeling. Many soldiers who are launching a sprint from soldiers to the officers and soldiers are secretly determined to perform well in the future and get a set of officer clothes to wear. How majestic it will be when they return to their hometown.

Besides, when Yang Chendong walked to the center of the temporary platform with standard steps, the whole military camp became silent at this moment. At this moment, there is only one person in the eyes of tens of thousands of people and only one voice in the ears of tens of thousands of people, that is what Yang Chendong and he will say next.

"Dear comrades in arms" did not use manuscripts. Yang Chendong chose the way of impromptu speech. Fortunately, there were many occasions like previous life experience. How to say, he had a manuscript in his heart. It's just that the times are different. Today he takes a practical way of speaking.

The target patrolled the whole audience, even the captured soldiers of the Miao army who were still tied by ropes, and then came out in a solemn voice, "Dear comrades in arms, last night, the Miao army suddenly launched a fierce attack on our barracks. Facing the test of life and death, you made a heroic performance, handed in a perfect answer sheet, defeated your opponents and won the victory by bravery. You are the best. I am also proud of you. Salute!"

First of all, they affirmed the victory of last night, which made all the soldiers in the war feel proud.

"But..." as soon as the voice turned, Yang Chendong's voice became much lower. "Some of our dear comrades in arms and brothers defended their dignity with their own lives in World War I last night and won the victory with their own lives. It is precisely because of their heroic efforts that we have a glorious and great victory."

"Today, we deeply mourn our dearest comrades in arms with a very sad mood. They are Zhang Hongdong, a third platoon of the first battalion of the temporary auxiliary, Li Caixian, a second platoon of the first battalion of the temporary auxiliary, Ren Zhuzhu, a second platoon of the second battalion of the temporary auxiliary, and Yang Weisong, a third platoon of the second battalion of the temporary auxiliary..."

Sixty three names were read out one by one through Yang Chendong's mouth.

Whenever he read a person's name, behind him, a soldier's body was covered with a white list until he finished reading it all. A slight cry came out at the scene.

Those who had tears in their eyes and couldn't help crying were the friends and relatives of these dead soldiers. Originally, they were all members of the Yellow bandit army. They were the people of Nanming Dynasty. They had to join the army and make a living because they had no homes under the war. But in the end, they didn't know whether they were lucky or bad. They became prisoners of mercenaries, and then After strict selection, he became a member of the temporary auxiliary.

In the first world war last night, after such a long time of psychological education and strict training, the temporary auxiliary soldiers showed a good state, fully launched the very heroic side, and finally won the victory. At the same time, 63 people died because of too many enemies and little combat experience.

War is meant to kill people. All the people who took part in the war were prepared for this. What's more, they won such a big victory, but 63 people died and less than 400 people were injured. In any case, it was a big victory. Not to mention, when counting the results of the war, many temporary auxiliary soldiers were recorded for their excellent performance. Some were directly promoted from temporary auxiliary soldiers to auxiliary soldiers, and some were focused on training among temporary auxiliary soldiers and became deputy squad leaders; There are also some who have made military contributions and won silver awards

This good side soon diluted the sadness of losing comrades in arms. Not to mention, they have also heard that all dead comrades in arms will actively look for his family. Once found, they will give a very generous pension, which is enough. Such treatment is at least not available in other armies.

But even after all this, the memorial service was still held. The young man who heard that he was the top leader read everyone's name. I'm afraid all the temporary auxiliary soldiers never thought of this honor. How can such a glorious scene and such solemn Memorial not make people moved or even shed tears.

In fact, before entering the temporary auxiliary soldiers, most of these people didn't even have a decent name. What stones, dog leftovers and iron eggs are their names. This is also because their family is too poor. It is said that cheap names are easy to feed. It was not until they joined the temporary auxiliary soldiers that they took new names one by one with the help of the company instructor. Now the new names will go with them. I think if people really die and have spirit, watching this scene, these 63 comrades in arms can rest in peace.

More people thought that if they could have such a solemn memorial service on the day of their death, they would be satisfied. When you come to this world for a walk, you can be remembered. This is something you didn't dare to think about before. Future generations will be proud of today's scene.

This scene also shocked the 7000 captured Miao army.

It has the name of Miao army, but in fact, there are few real Miao people among them, I'm afraid it's about one tenth. The other 6000 people were Han Chinese who came all the way from the Miao army and absorbed them on the way. For these people, there is no sense of belonging and loyalty at all. Originally, when they joined, they just wanted to fill their stomachs and live. Even if they were not in their twenties and stronger than other young men, I'm afraid they wouldn't be given a chance even if they wanted to join the Miao army temporarily.

In other words, the most important sign of the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty is the increase in population. Especially after the resurgence of the Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, Chengzu Zhu Di and the rule of Renxuan, the population of the Ming Dynasty has reached a peak state. The Southwest has not been in war for a long time. There are still many young men like this, which is what Yang Chendong likes, The reason for deliberately coming out of the capital of the northern Ming Dynasty. The great man once said that many people are easy to handle. For Yang Chendong, who wants to send the Han people to the top of the world, a high-quality population is his urgent need, and he can't let go.

Not to mention the physical foundation of these people, just say that the scene in front of them completely shocked them. Although most of these people have not been on the battlefield, even if they are in war, they have only been in contact recently, but they have not seen pigs running. Have they not eaten pork yet? When did you hear of anyone giving such preferential treatment to dead soldiers? What kind of army is this? At this moment, there is a big question mark in everyone's heart.

In fact, it was not only the surprise on the face of more than 6000 Han people, but also the question mark of one heart. Even the 700 or so Miao army was also stunned.

Due to geographical reasons, the Miao people have been entangled with the Han people for many years. There are many things about intermarriage in private. It is really me and you in me. It seems impossible to verify who is the Miao people of pure blood.

It is precisely because we are too close to the Han people that we have long been inseparable from each other. This time, if the Yingzong Zhuqi town had not had a hot head and wanted to levy heavy taxes in the southwest to support him in building a new army to fight the northern Ming Dynasty, they would not have been forced to live, and they would not have suddenly set up troops under the solicitation of the king of min. In the final analysis, they have no bad feelings for Daming, but because the living conditions are too bad, they have no choice but to die.
