Chapter 276 Wounded
"The last general Zheng Sen met His Highness the Crown Prince and met the General."
When it was almost dawn, Zhu Cixuan also inspected the entire military camp.
According to the imperial court's will, Ye Yun, Li Guodong and Hu Qiang were all promoted to generals.
The military ranks in the army are now quite complicated, some are official positions in the Ming Dynasty, and some are newly listed by Zhu Cilang.
Now there is no time to rectify, so let's mix like this first.
Zhu Cilang and Ye Yun were already a little tired, but Zheng Sen looked excited.
To be honest, although he had gone abroad to fight before, he had never seen such a new tactic. Everything he saw during the day directly subverted the guy's perception in his head, so he was extremely excited at this moment.
At the same time, he also saw the power of naval warships. These are just small warships that can travel in rivers. Think about those large seaships equipped with field guns, and the future sea frontier...
Before he joined the war, he and other navy officers and soldiers were wondering why the battle of surrender could achieve such a battle loss ratio?
Is the combat effectiveness of the Qing cavalry all made of paper? After today, they realized that the court sent a letter to courts in various places, and no word was lying.
If it weren't for the traitor Liu Liangzuo, our losses would have dropped significantly. Today, this kid understood what a modern war is called the Prince's mouth, which is also an open eye.
"Get up. In the future, this kind of kneeling etiquette will not be performed in other places except in the hall. According to the etiquette in the army, we will be simple. We are all brothers who live on the battlefield. If you tweak these things, you will seem a little distant. You have just arrived and will gradually adapt to it in the future."
After thinking about some of the cumbersome etiquettes of this era, Zhu Cilang decided to keep some of the cumbersome etiquettes.
But it's all kept inside the palace. As for other places, it can still be reduced. After all, Zhu Cilang still feels a little uncomfortable when someone kneels down to you at any time.
But if all of them are exempted, there will be greater resistance within the court. After all, Confucianism has been so many years, and it cannot be resolved in just a few sentences.
Zhu Cilang is still very satisfied with the boy Zheng Sen. Today is the first time this kid has participated in a battle, but his grasp of the situation is similar to that of a veteran.
When will the support be provided? When will the attack be docked? The timing is quite good. After all, I have been following his father since I was a child.
"I will obey the order."
Since entering this military camp, Zheng Sen also observed that most people bowed their hands, and some people raised their right hands, as if it was called military salutes, but it had not been implemented on a large scale, but it was only tried in the imperial guards of His Royal Highness the Prince.
"Report to His Highness the Crown Prince, the three regiments of the supplementary troops will arrive near Wuchang tomorrow morning and disembark twenty-five miles away."
It turned out to be because of this.
Zhu Cixuan knew that there would be some losses on the battlefield, so before the war started, he had already issued an order to increase troops. With the transportation of naval warships, it was indeed much faster than before.
Ye Yun next to him also breathed a sigh of relief. About 6,000 people lost their combat power today, so the other party's losses were of course greater.
But the other party still has more than 300,000 troops in Wuchang City. If we don’t make up for it, there may be some mistakes in some cases. Hearing that His Royal Highness had already made arrangements, this guy was relieved.
"Let these recruits replenish them quickly. We did a good job today. If there is no mistake tomorrow, we should continue to attack. I know that your departments need time to rectify, but I can only give you one night, at the moment when the enemy is most panicked, that is, the moment we have the greatest chance."
After inspecting the main force, he still had combat power, so Zhu Cixuan decided to continue attacking tomorrow.
"I consumed a lot of ammunition today. How are you all replenishing it? You can't make any mistakes tomorrow."
Zhu Cilang suddenly remembered this incident. Today, the gun barrels were red, and many soldiers were almost numb to pull the trigger. You can imagine how much the ammunition was lost.
"Please rest assured that the prince's prince is following these recruits, thirty ships of various weapons and ammunition. They are now docking. We are transporting to the military camp. We should be able to transport them before dawn tomorrow, and two thousand civilians have been recruited nearby."
The navy warships are really powerful. They can not only transport soldiers, but also transport supplies and ammunition. They used to rely on four-wheeled carriages. Although the speed was not slow, the transportation volume was always inferior to that of the ship.
"Your navy performs well this time, and I remember it all in my heart. After returning to Nanjing, you must remember these things well and write them into a booklet. There are so many navy masters in the court, so they must understand this."
Zheng Sen was so happy after hearing Zhu Cilang's words. Of course, what he was happy about was not the reward from the court. There were naturally rewards after winning the battle. He was not afraid that the court would not give it to him. He was happy that Zhu Cilang finally began to pay attention to the navy.
This is a great good news. They dreamed that the court would pay attention to the development of the navy. Unfortunately, in the past, the Ming Dynasty was in civil strife. They used the army in the battle with the Qing people and Li Zicheng. The development of the navy almost stagnated, and many warships were from the Jiajing Dynasty.
"Please rest assured Your Highness, and you will do it immediately after you go back."
"There is another thing. When these naval warships transporting soldiers return, they don't have to go back empty ships."
When Zheng Sen was about to leave, Zhu Cixuan remembered another thing. According to the court's regulations, these injured soldiers were sent to more than a dozen cities for treatment. They were basically along the Yangtze River, and riding on the navy's warship would be less turbulent.
When fighting in Shandong, Zhu Cilang had already confirmed this matter, scattering the wounded into more than a dozen cities, so that the wounded could get the best care.
If they were concentrated in a certain location, judging from the current situation, they would probably not be able to take good care of them. Each city would accept hundreds of ten, and the wounded were quickly dispersed.
