Chapter 157: Tragic Situation in the Barracks

Zhao Yu ran out of the council hall, he really couldn't accept the atmosphere inside, and he didn't want to see Shen Mengting's death with his own eyes.

He stopped outside the door and bent down to rest one hand on his knee. At present, there seems to be an unstoppable gasp, and there is a sad sobbing in it.

From time to time, a cold wind blew on his body, and some of his hairs stood on end.

"Why, why is this happening? Why?" Zhao Yu couldn't believe it, he shook his head.

At this moment, the surrounding sounds attracted his attention, and he suddenly realized that he had entered a hellish scene.

The barracks were littered with the corpses of soldiers, as if there had been an earth-shattering battle inside.

"This ......"

Zhao Yu's eyebrows furrowed as soon as sorrow, and he was attracted by a wail in the distance. It was from a bloodied soldier. He was lying on the ground, still bleeding from it.

From the visual inspection alone, it can be seen that the soldier has too many slashes on his chest and torso.

"This ...... This ......" Zhao Yu hurriedly ran towards the injured person, but before he could fully reach his destination, several doctors rushed to the side.

The doctors were apparently there to help the wounded, and they were carrying stretchers in their hands.

The wounded man was still wailing, and from time to time he shouted words like 'it hurt, it hurts, it hurts.' But there was nothing the doctors could do, they were so solemn and put the injuries on the stretcher.

The doctors then had to transport the sick and wounded away, because it was too cold to treat the wounded.

"Ah...... I...... I'm in pain! I'm ...... I ......" the wounded who were lying on a stretcher and were being let go, still wailing.

But the doctors didn't respond, their faces were really solemn now, as if they had encountered some hopelessness.

"I'm in so much pain! really! really, really! Please help me, help me!" The wounded man seemed to be unable to suppress the pain, he directly reached out and grabbed the arm of a doctor next to him, using a lot of strength, "Please help me, I ...... I...... Ah......h

There are more and more blood stains on the injured body, as if the stretcher board is about to be dyed red, and there are even a few drops of blood left.

But the doctors were still powerless, they simply carried the wounded away one by one mechanically, and at least kept them from being poorly exposed to the cold wind.

"Why...... Why is there such a tragedy!" Zhao Yu asked himself this question again. He looked at the corpses all over the ground, and he had a picture of the previous battle in his mind.

The brothers fought to the last drop of blood, but they were unable to defeat the enemy as they wished.

Zhao Yu's heart had already begun to drip blood, thinking that he had nothing to do at the moment, so he decided to go with those doctors to the place where the injury was placed to see what was going on.

Walking slowly in the barracks, even if the doctors in front of him who were leaving with stretchers were lost, Zhao Yu would not worry at all. Because there are still a large number of doctors shuttling around, they are constantly transporting the wounded so that they can be treated at least a little more securely.

Zhao Yu continued to walk, and he really stepped on countless corpses along the way. He hadn't seen so many of them since he was so old. It can be seen how tragic the previous war was, and Zhao Yu conservatively estimated that Saran's losses this time may be tens of thousands.

Suddenly, a trace of electricity crossed Zhao Yu's brain. He clearly remembered that among the more than 30,000 soldiers who had left behind with Shen Mengting, there were also those newly recruited soldiers!

In other words, a few partners who grew up with Zhao Yu in Vortex Town may also be among them.

But what exactly does this mean by 'in it'? is it the wounded or the ...... A corpse that has fallen and become?

Zhao Yu's heart began to tighten, which also prompted him to speed up his pace. He passed through what he had defined as hell until he reached the barracks grounds. On weekdays, the soldiers practiced here, but now they have been temporarily put up in tents one after another.

Tents were used to house the wounded so that they would not be exposed to the cold.

However, judging from the wails emanating from each tent, Zhao Yu did not feel any peace of mind.

Are they the only remaining brothers? Zhao Yu's heart cried. He knew that even if he was carried here by the doctor, it didn't mean that he would say goodbye to the ghost gate. Because there will still be a lot of wounded people who will die of their injuries.

That's the reality!

Zhao Yu began to walk on the playground, but before he came to a tent, he would go in and step down to see if there was anyone he was familiar with.

But the scene inside each tent was so tragic that Zhao Yu didn't dare to continue to step inside.

As long as you can hear the earth-shattering screams inside every tent, let alone go in and see the miserable situation inside!

Most of the soldiers in the tent were lying flat inside, with varying degrees of injuries. Some of the guys who were slightly injured were squatting on the ground, but their eyes were extremely dull.

There were also slight weepings from time to time inside the tent, which were used to decorate the edges of the miserable atmosphere.

In short, this is not a place for individuals, and the air in it has long been stained with the smell of blood.

Zhao Yu was already a little overwhelmed, and there were a few times when he wanted to turn around and run away. The appearance of the soldiers was so miserable that Zhao Yu himself couldn't accept it at all.

But in the end, he still had to move on, he couldn't let go of his friends in Vortex Town, and he didn't know what the situation was with those people at the moment.

Passing by the door of a tent, Zhao Yu heard a loud roar inside.

It was a wounded soldier who clung to the doctor's roar, "Damn, are you sick in the head? I don't see Lao Tzu hurting! Will you cure it......?"

The wounded lying flat seemed to be in a state of madness, and both legs were constantly kicking. And by his side, there is indeed a famous doctor who treats him. But because of the shaking of the person being treated, the doctor's treatment wave was interrupted.

"Hey, what are you doing, don't move, I'm treating you!" the doctor's hands were still glowing with gold, and he obviously didn't want his treatment to be interrupted, and he still wanted to continue to show off the doctor's skills.

But the soldier never bought it, "Damn, I don't want treatment." ”

"What are you doing?"

"I don't want treatment. What's the use of treating us now? Isn't it a mistake on the part of the commander that our army has suffered such a great defeat this time?"

The doctor looked stunned, and he didn't say anything in response.

"Damn, it's all the goods that that woman provoked. She doesn't guard the border, so why should she take the risk of confronting the Saurons! Does she have the ability? Or do she treat us all as cannon fodder? Ah...... Is...... Isn't it the woman's fault that we're doing this now?"

The soldiers' shouts were echoed by many people around them, and a large number of "yes, yes, yes" voices came out, as if they were about to turn into some kind of denunciation.

The doctor looked helpless, and the golden light that was still bubbling in his hand was extinguished at this moment.

"Okay, I'm about to ask that woman to come out, tell Shen Mengting to come out. What is she going to give us an explanation? Now we are simply defeated, and we have been completely beaten to by the Saurons!" The wounded man was still venting, his feet continuing to pace the ground, "Call that woman over! Why has there been no sound so far? Where has she died?"

Zhao Yu squeezed the staff he was holding tightly, and blood was dripping from his heart. He knew that it was impossible for Shen Mengting to come, because Shen Mengting was currently in a state of frequent death. No, I should say I'm going to leave forever.

"That's it, why are we all looking like this now, why didn't Marshal Shen even come over to see us? Could it be that the lives of our soldiers are worthless in the eyes of the marshal?" another soldier began to speak. His entire right shoulder was bandaged, and there was a stain of bright red blood in it.

"That's it, Marshal Shen, tell her to come out!"

"The army is like this now, and she should stand up and take responsibility. ”

"So many brothers died, it's up to her to explain. ”

A large number of soldiers have expressed their dissatisfaction, even though they are still suffering from their injuries.

In fact, in the early days, many generals, including the regent of Zhou, strongly disagreed with this risky strategy. But our marshal did not listen, and insisted on abandoning the frontier and retreating the army. It's good now, not to mention the loss of a large piece of land, and the loss of our place is also a heavy loss. ”

"That's it! This woman has made us miserable, do you think she will fight or not! How can anyone give up a good border and force the army back? Isn't this a deliberate push of us into the fire pit?"

Several soldiers also released words against Shen Mengting, and some even cursed severely.

Zhao Yu looked at these scenes, and couldn't help but feel a lot of anger in his heart. He thought to himself that these soldiers admired Shen Mengting so much a few days ago, but he didn't expect that after a defeat, he directly denied all the good things that Shen Mengting had before.

Marshal Shen Mengting is also the great man who led everyone to resist Sauron's army twice! Zhao Yu had a lot of anger in his heart.

However, he couldn't refute anything, because if he quarreled with the soldiers now, it would inevitably affect the morale of the soldiers around him. After all, there are still a lot of wounded people who need to be treated!

Moreover, several doctors present were also persuading, so Zhao Yu didn't look like he was going to add fuel to the fire.

"Okay! No matter what grievances you have in your hearts now, but in this situation, I think it's better to heal your injuries first! Only after you have healed your injuries can you have the strength to give advice to Marshal Shen Mengting, right?" The doctor's tone was quite bitter.

Several other doctors in the surrounding area also came to calm down, and they also tried their best to persuade the soldiers to calm down first.

However, the anger of several soldiers seemed to be completely uncontrollable, and they were still full of anger, and made the posture that the deputy would not accept treatment without putting the generalissimo in charge.

"Don't say all the nice things, who are you doctors fooling? Why are you talking so nicely now? Even if we receive medical treatment, how will we live in the future? We have been defeated by Sauron, and I believe that Sauron will attack soon after, so you say, even if we are healed now, will we be able to block the enemy's attack in the future?"

The soldier's remarks seemed to have touched the nerves of several wounded people in the vicinity, and many people who did not want to quarrel began to scream.

For a moment, many of the physicians were silent, because they couldn't utter any rebuttals.

Yes, even if he is treated now, what will happen? Zhao Yu also had a sense of doubt in his heart. The army of the Saurons will soon strike again, so all the current treatment is only a last-minute experience.

Now even Shen Mengting, the spiritual leader of Salan, is about to leave, and the resistance she left behind has also disappeared with her defeat. Now that the barracks must be full of doubts about the young female marshal, how can this army continue to maintain its combat effectiveness?

It's over! The Saran Kingdom seems to be really coming to an end! Zhao Yu clenched his staff and raised his head to look at the gray sky.

The commotion of the soldiers continued, but after all, there was a moment to rest, and most of them were seriously injured, even if they were in the stage of minor injuries, they were modified by a few sword wounds. Therefore, they are still focusing on self-cultivation, although they say that they do not want to be treated, but once the pain hits, they can only bow their heads and accept the help of the doctors.

It's just that there are still sporadic doubts, and Zhao Yu believes that they will definitely break out after the injury is healed. I don't know what to do with the generals?

Zhao Yu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he still needed to do what he should have done now. He didn't find his companion in Vortex, so he had to continue walking.

When passing by a tent, Zhao Yu heard the crying inside. A soldier was crouching on the ground and weeping bitterly, tears like a waterfall.

"Ah...... Yes...... Is...... It's really ......."

Zhao Yu wanted to inquire what was wrong, but realized that there was not only one soldier crying inside, but the others, whether lying down or sitting cross-legged, were in extreme pain.

Therefore, Zhao Yu was still a little discouraged and stopped outside the tent, and slowly inserted the bottom of the staff into the ground.

"Woo...... Is...... Really...... All of them are dead...... All of them are dead...... My brothers in town, all killed by the Sauronians. Woohoo......"

It turned out that he was mourning for his dead brothers! Zhao Yu's face became more and more sad. But as soon as he heard the word 'town' in it, he felt very worried.

Now I don't know what happened to the people in Vortex Town? Zhao Yu's eyes became a little misty.

"Don't cry anymore, so is my brother. We stepped out of Jiaoshan Town together, but now I'm the only one left!"

"Me too! There were more than a dozen of us! We've all bowed to each other, but now we're ...... I'm the only one left!"

"Uh......h This war is so cruel, too cruel. My brothers are dead. ”

"At least 20,000 people have been lost in this war, and I heard that there is a town where none of the young people came back alive!"

A large number of soldiers were talking inside, and many of them were crying with sadness.

Zhao Yu himself was about to cry, after all, it was his compatriots who died!
