Chapter 254: Gelby's Perspective
Gelby poked his eyes out of the wooden cage, looking at the dark surroundings, his spirit was in a trance, and his throat coughed violently, and the fever had irritated his lungs.
I thought that I could escape from this mountain, and then recover from my physical illness in Shaanxi County, but the prescription of the Chinese medicine doctor in the barracks was useless, but who knew that they were arrested halfway, or the general ordered that they were not allowed to escape from the barracks.
Gelby and the other sick were held in a place, and looking around, looking towards the light of the place, he found himself in a large tent, the ground still seeping water, well ventilated but not enough to make him feel comfortable, damp and sticky as if he was in a deep quagmire, and he was not the only one struggling.
The occasional coughing around made Gelby understand that this was the place where the sick sergeants were kept, and looking into the darker and damper cages, he saw many pale and bloodless faces, similar to his own.
Gelby even believed that he, like these people, would soon become seriously ill and die.
Wandering around the tent, although it was a gloomy environment, the curtain of the tent not far away showed a feeling that the morning light had just sprouted, that is, it was only morning, how long had he slept, and he remembered that he was caught at night, and returned to the barracks so quickly?
Confused, Gelby sat up, grabbed the thick square wooden strip and shook it, but he didn't shake it, and it was obvious that the cage in which they were held was very strong, and there was a rudimentary bronze lock on the outside.
Gelby instantly became energetic, he sat up with all his strength, carefully looked at the situation of the big tent, and suddenly found that there were almost no guards and no doctors here, which was very strange.
But this strange thought soon dissolved, for they were all sick, and would be contagious, and if it were to other healthy sergeants, it would be a loss, so the sick were gathered together, and if this was the case, Gelby's already dazed head ached, and they were ruthlessly abandoned.
In this case, why do you want to arrest him back, if he returns to Shaanxi County, maybe there is still a chance to survive, looking at the cage on the left, Gelby knocked on the wooden strip, "Hey, hey!" Don't sleep, you might really die if you fall asleep here! ”
The cage next door heard the sound of slow tumbling, the sound of rolling on the straw, and a bearded man with malaise and white lips leaned against the wall of the cage with a slight pillow, his black and red eyes filled with dead fish-like eyes, and his pale pupils reflected Gelby's face.
"Three days ago... Ahem"
Gelby didn't hear clearly, but leaned closer and leaned against the prison wall on the left, "What are you talking about?" You're like this, don't sleep, sleep again, it's really a long sleep, listen to the outside, we rebel nonsense, it's really against the way of heaven, maybe we will be punished by God because of this! ”
"Hah, people are dying... God care... God never opens his eyes.... Ahem, ahem! ”
A weak voice passed between the two of them, threatening to break at any moment, and at the moment when it was about to break, it let out a strong and terrifying coughing sound.
Gelby looked at the fellow patient, his stomach gurgling like this, he felt that it had been a long time since he had filled his stomach for the last time, so he could only untie the leather belt around his waist and tie it roughly, "When will you come to deliver food?" ”
The sick sergeant, whose eyes were about to lose his life, smiled wryly, coughed violently a few times, as if he was about to spit out something, but he couldn't, just weakly whispered, "No one... There's no one to bring something to eat, I can't... I can't.... So sleepy, so sleepy..."
Gelby tried to pat him on the back with his hand, trying to relieve the pain of his cough, but to no avail, his hand could not cross the gap between the cages, and could only watch him slowly fall asleep, sleeping peacefully, no matter how much Gelby tried to wake him up, there was still no movement.
Immediately afterward, he curled up in a corner of the cage, no longer trying to reach the sick people around him, even though he was sick, but it was even more uncomfortable than going to battle.
I fell asleep with a glimmer of hope, I don't know how long it took, Gelby heard thunder in his ears, woke up, listened to the left and right again, and the sound of the earth fire exploding sounded, that is to say, the thunder was very close.
The slashing sound of Bingge's swords and guns poured into his ears, making Gelby a spirit, and also making these patients around him a spirit, who had been on the battlefield, and naturally would not be unfamiliar with this kind of soldier's symphonic sound.
Gelby's first reaction was that the Black Armor Army attacked, reaching out and grabbing everywhere, but he didn't grasp anything, except for the dry straw with a damp feeling, there was not even a quilt in the cage, and this kind of rice grass was originally horse feed.
Gelby's mind flashed all kinds of thoughts, the black armor army is not easy to mess with, he is now unarmed, how can he defend himself against attacks and killings, looking at the golden light at the door of the big tent, a trace of warmth spread from the top of the tent, Gelby shouted in surprise in his heart, the sun is out.
As soon as he was excited, Gelby coughed rapidly, the hunger in his stomach became more and more sensitive, and he couldn't sit still, and while the sound of the swords and soldiers and the sound of the explosion was still very small, he immediately rummaged in the straw for a sturdy pole, stretched out his hand and began to break the old bronze lock, and soon broke the lock.
After Gelby slowly walked out of the cage, he looked at a pair of eager eyes, held his chest high, took down a scimitar hanging at the door of the tent, and opened all the cages in the big tent in turn.
The black-armored army came from all directions, completely surrounded the surroundings, and with a pale face, Gelby made a wise judgment, threw away the scimitar in his hand, and knelt on the ground, begging for mercy.
Unexpectedly, these black-armored sergeants did not hurt him, but just clasped everyone's hands behind their backs, grabbed them, and all the patients were taken in the direction of Tongguan.
Gelby didn't quite understand, take it to Tongguan? What did the black armor army want to do, Gelby walked on the road to the east of Tongguan, all the way, there were corpses everywhere, some wearing black armor, and some Hu people, but the corpses of black armor were far less than the corpses of Hu people.
Gelby knew from the situation on the battlefield that they were defeated, and the general was defeated.
It's really incredible, how long has it been since he woke up like this, but it's also worth thanking, because he didn't go to war because he was sick, so it can be said that he escaped a death.
Coming to the top of the hill and looking at the east side of Tongguan, Gelby was amazed, there were black pits everywhere, and there were many torchets that were torn apart, and the wall of the city was also hit, and there was a crack there, and there was indeed a corner here.
Walking to the gate of Tongguan City, Gelby saw a woman in red, judging from the people around him, this beautiful woman in red must be a superior person, probably an existence like a general, just before this idea flashed, Gelby saw General Shi who knelt on the ground and confessed to planting, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and Gelby immediately worried about his fate!
