At some point, the barbarians finally retreated.

From their fierce charge, to fighting to the death, and finally to despair and fear, they never expected that thousands of people had not been able to kill this group of Qin troops.

The barbarians slowly retreated, and finally fell into the forest.

In front of the mountain pass, the blood rushed to the sky.

Under the feet of the soldiers, a thick layer of blood had accumulated, and the ground had been dyed red.

"Report casualties?"

Captain Cui Gao shouted, his voice was hoarse, his whole person was soaked, full of blood, and he couldn't tell whether it was blood or sweat. There were several wounds on his body, but fortunately, he had armor on his body, but the injuries were not serious.

The flag was still held high, and the flag-bearer and the two flag-guarding knives were dyed red.

Su Ba threw the scarred shield to the ground, and the shield fell apart into several pieces at once, and his hands trembled like cramps.

"Casualties?"

Team Leader B looked left and right at the two brothers in the same group, "Xiao Yi is dead, he was stabbed with a spear in his left eye, and he is already cold." Xu Rong's leg was injured, but it shouldn't be useless, and I'm fine. ”

The leader of Group C did not respond, and Lao Zhao, the knife player in the same group, responded, "The Song group is dead, and Lao Chang and I are still alive." ”

Su Ba himself was in group A, three of them, and they were injured, and they didn't know how many they were, but it shouldn't be a big deal, and the other two boys, although they seemed to be injured, but seeing that they were still panting there, they shouldn't be able to die.

Su Ba then replied loudly to the captain Cui Sheng, "Of the nine people who were killed in the sword brand, two died, Xiao Yi and Lao Song, and the others were injured, but not seriously injured." ”

Of the nine people in the lance shield fire, three died, and the fire chief also died.

One was killed by the sword and axe, one by the spear, but not by the bow and crossbow, and only the deputy of the team and the three standard-bearers were wounded.

Cui Sheng said to the deputy Lao Liu, "Lao Liu, write down, seven brothers died in battle, in this nameless mountain pass." ”

Lao Liu nodded a little heavily, "Take advantage of the barbarian retreat, hurry up and take out the medicine mouth to heal, the bandaging that should be bandaged, and the suture that should be sutured." ”

"Zhao Qiqi, you will stitch, you come."

Lao Liu wrote down the names of the fallen brothers and began to sort out their belongings, to see if there were any personal things to take separately from the corpses, and if the situation was urgent and the corpses could not be brought back, they should also be taken away first.

Cui Sheng gasped, rested, and felt better, so he led people to start counting the corpses of the barbarians, while Zhao Jin, the chief of the bow and crossbow fire, led people to recover the crossbow arrows on the battlefield.

"More than two hundred corpses, two hundred and seventeen to be exact."

Cui Sheng walked around and came back.

There was no living mouth, and the seriously injured were mended by the barbarians before retreating, and the lightly injured were taken away.

The barbarians also took most of the weapons on the battlefield with them, leaving only a group of unlucky ghosts lying there.

After opening the water bladder and taking a few sips, Cui Sheng handed the water to the brother next to him, and took another dried salted fish and chewed it, "These southern barbarians don't know if they will attack." ”

Lao Liu took off the military cards of the seven fallen brothers, "I estimate that the Southern Barbarians should be frightened, they have suffered such a big loss, they must not dare to fight, otherwise there is no need to withdraw, since they have withdrawn, they will definitely not dare to fight again for the time being, let's quickly pack up, take the bodies of these seven fallen brothers, and return to Wenyang City." ”

"There are Southern Barbarians in this mountain pass, so it is estimated that this short road is the path chosen by the Southern Barbarians, maybe there are more ahead."

"Those have no choice, they have already fought each other, so we can only go back as soon as possible."

Cui Sheng was very angry in his heart, everyone performed very well in this battle, fifty against thousand, and still killed two hundred and seventeen, but he also killed seven of his own brothers, and the other brothers were also injured, especially very tired.

If you encounter another enemy, I am afraid that it will be difficult to deal with.

Fortunately, it is only less than thirty miles away from Wenyang City, if they speed up and can rush to the city after dark, and do not spend the night in the wilderness, then they can still be safe, I am afraid that the night is still in the wilderness, and then the Nanban will definitely come to raid.

In the field attack, their forty-three tired wounded soldiers were afraid that they would all die here.

"Get on your horses and rush over."

"What about these enemy corpses?"

These 217 corpses are proof of their military merits, and if they are brought back, they will definitely be able to guarantee their military merits, but if they are not taken away, how can they prove it when the time comes?

"Chop off the head and take it away."

They had a horse, a mount, and a pack horse, and a hundred horses, more than two hundred heads, and two or three horses for each horse, so it should not be much of a burden.

"Then hurry up, cut off the head first and take it away, and then discuss the merits in detail after you go back."

Although they were tired one by one, everyone didn't dare to delay any longer at this time, so they stepped forward with their knives and seized the time to cut off their heads.

After a brief cleanup, the seven fallen soldiers were also tied to the saddle.

The team hit the road again, this time no longer patrolling slowly, but running at full speed.

When crossing the mountain pass, everyone was very worried, for fear that the barbarians would ambush again, and the two banners rode horses to explore the road in front, but fortunately, there was no danger along the way, and finally rushed through the mountain pass.

On the other side of the mountain, there is a very flat boundary, at least the field of vision is broad, and there is no need to worry about a sudden ambush, everyone is relieved and gallops on horseback.

Nearly thirty miles of road, about two hours, finally arrived at the city of Wenyang.

At this time, the city gate of Wenyang City was closed, and several nearby tunzhuang villages were also lit with beacon smoke.

This is a warning sign.

"It seems that the southern barbarians have already come."

The procession galloped all the way to the bottom of the city, and the gates slowly opened.

The head of the county garrison, the county lieutenant, the county magistrate, and the chief secretary of the county order all came out.

Du Tou looked at their team, "Seven less, not bad, you left here yesterday, but today Tunzhuang outside the city reported that a large number of barbarians were found, and I am worried that you will all die outside this time." ”

Cui Sheng said, "Don't worry, the barbarians don't have this ability, we found a large number of barbarians crossing the river by the river, so we changed the route and returned, but we encountered more than a thousand barbarians in the riverside mountain pass, a bloody battle, the barbarians were killed by us 217 and fled." Because I was worried about Wenyang City, I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to hold it, so I couldn't pursue it and came back quickly. ”

"Meet a thousand barbarians, kill two hundred and seventeen?"

The county commander couldn't believe it, after all, fifty battles and a thousand battles were still field battles.

Cui Sheng was not very happy when he heard the words of the county order, he didn't like these officials who were born as scholars and literati, "County Zun, we will immediately bring back the head of the barbarians, and the county order can be seen one by one." ”

Su Ba and the others took off the heads on the horses and threw them into a pile.

The county order covered his mouth, a little disgusting.

"With so many barbarian heads, wouldn't it be a barbarian village that was attached to the slaughter, risking merit?" A long attendant next to the county order said.

Cui Sheng's eyes flashed with murderous aura.

The hand was already pressed directly on the knife.

The head of the city immediately pressed his hand, he turned around and said to the county commander with a smile, "County Jun, your long-term retinue's words are over, the soldiers are outside to kill the enemy and defend the border, and after the battle, they hurried to reinforce and worry about the officials and people in Wenyang City, but you, the retinue, said such hurtful words?" ”

The county commander turned around and slapped Chang Sui hard, although he also had such suspicions, but there was no real evidence, and he really couldn't say this in public.

"Cui Teamzheng, it's the official who is not strict in disciplining his subordinates, I'm sorry."

Cui Sheng replied with a cold face.

"Lin Dutou, where is the barbarian now?"

"Several Tunzhuang lit beacon smoke, reported that they met barbarians, but fortunately, everyone was very vigilant, closed Tunzhuang in time, recalled the people outside, and let the militia and the people of Tunzhuang be on guard, and now Nanban has not broken through Tunzhuang."

"It seems that the barbarians are also smart, knowing that Wenyang City is high and it is difficult to attack with government soldiers stationed there, so they want to sweep the Tunzhuang outside our city first, but they didn't expect that our Tunzhuang is not as good as their barbarian village, and the defense is very strict." Cui Sheng said. "Has the capital sent a message to Sunset City for help?"

"Several people have been sent to go in batches, and it is estimated that Sunset City has received a warning letter at this time."

"Alright, let's wait for reinforcements in the city." Cui Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Dutou immediately said, "The brothers of the Fifth Capital A Team, go into the city first to heal the wounds, and leave the matter of guarding the city to a certain old forest." ”
