Although the threat of the wolves is gone, their troubles have just begun, and Liu Ji and the others who have returned to the formation will have to face injuries and ...... everywhere Death.

"The lord, the deputy of the army, Lao Wu, he can't do it."

The Sogdian man who had just entered the formation, known as Kang Laosi and the great name Kang Huaishun, reported bad news to them.

When Zhang Wuyuan heard this, he didn't care about speaking, and hurriedly walked over with him, Liu Ji, who was a step slower, followed behind, handed the Mo knife to a sergeant, and soon came to a sled.

Lao Wu is a stocky Hexi man, the height is about the same as Zhang Wuyuan, in the battle just now, he guarded a passage alone, killed more than ten snow wolves, and unfortunately was bitten in many places, the most deadly of which was on the chest, that was not a tooth print, but five sharp paw prints!

Liu Ji only glanced at it and understood that even if there was a helicopter that could be sent to the rear hospital, Lao Wu would not be able to rescue him, his entire chest was almost scratched, and the blood could not be blocked.

"Lao Zhang...... Me, my ...... Brat. ”

Xu was holding his last breath, and after seeing Zhang Wuxuan, he said something intermittently, then took the latter's hand, and stared at him motionless with his eyes puffed up.

"It's all on Zhang!"

Zhang Wuxuan was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hear clearly, so he yelled, his eyes were motionless, but the light inside was gradually hidden, and the person had gone.

Zhang Wuyuan looked at it in a daze for a while, wiped the other party's eyelids, and stood up expressionlessly.

"What about the casualties?"

Kang Laosi shook his head: "Four Mo knife hands are gone, five spears are dead, and there is an unlucky archer who was bitten off by a wolf." ”

After a pause, he continued: "There are only eleven people who are lucky enough not to hang the lottery, fourteen people who are lightly injured and do not hinder their movements, and fifteen people who need to be bandaged. ”

That is, the casualties were close to four-fifths, a fifth were killed, and a quarter were wounded unknown.

Liu Ji's mood suddenly fell to the bottom, and he no longer had the joy of victory before, looking at the tragic situation in front of him, listening to the screams from time to time, his face was full of gloom.

When he found that Zhang Wuprice, Kang Laosi and others were looking at him, Liu Ji was calm, and his tone was a little uncertain.

"We've only been on the road for a day, and it's time to return ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Wuprice: "Kang Laosi, bring someone to help." ”

Driving the others away, he lowered his voice: "I followed you on this road, I didn't think about stability, being bitten to death by wolves, freezing to death, starving to death, and dying in battle?" When they go back at this time, will they not die in vain? ”

"But the wounded?" It's not that Liu Ji doesn't understand, it's just that he can't be ruthless for a while, in later generations, the military camp culture he accepted is not to abandon or give up, and many of these injured people may still be saved.

"Resign yourself to fate, damn it, send it back is also a death, don't deserve to die, you can survive, do you know why Lao Wu can't close his eyes, he needs this military merit, he needs a reward, in order to support his wife and children at home. Take us and make the first contribution, which is what you should consider. ”

Liu Ji didn't say more, and he didn't want to argue anymore, the other party was right, and completing the task successfully was what he should consider the most.

"Lift everything that can't be walked onto the sled, and if something is good, there's a cave ahead for us to rest for the night."

"The rest of the skin that can move, peel as much as it can fit, and at night, I will point to these skins for warmth, try to cut some whole, and cut some meat, and get more leg meat."

This judgment, he is based on the relative position, in later generations, although there is an advanced positioning and navigation direction, but in the harsh climate, the instrument is easy to fail, therefore, some seemingly outdated experience, often play a key role, at this time, he used to locate, is a few peaks in the distance, by calculating the deflection angle, can get a rough direction and position, although the error is certainly not small, but this era, can be accurate to half a day, has been considered high precision.

Under his command, some unimportant baggage was unloaded, and a dozen or so sergeants with limited mobility were put on it, and each sled was dragged by a person who did not hang a color, and Liu Ji was naturally no exception.

After walking for about half an hour, they approached a high mountain, Liu Ji put down the sled, and went to investigate it himself, confirming that it was the mountain he was looking for, and sure enough, there was a natural cave at the foot of the mountain, which was not much different from the later generations.

"Quick, drag in."

He hurried back, took the rest of the sled to the entrance of the cave, and after making sure that there was no danger inside, he carried the wounded into it one by one.

"Kang Laosi, you take someone to guard the entrance of the cave, and if a wild beast attacks, release the arrow." After settling the person, he carried the sled in the air, and was about to go back, but Kang Laosi grabbed him in a panic.

"Lord, where are you going?"

"Pick up people, and pull Lao Wu and them over, find a place to bury them, and put them in a wild place, they will be eaten by snow wolves."

Kang Laosi let go of his hand, watched their figures go away, and untied the Mo knife on his back, like a door god, standing upright at the entrance of the cave.

Even if you die in a foreign land, no one wants to be buried in peace.

He waited until it was dark, and when he was anxious, he let out a few arrows in succession, and finally saw a dark shadow in the distance.

"Who?" Even though he knew that the beast would not answer him, Kang Laosi still let out a loud shout.

"Let's go back."

Zhang's priceless voice made this six-foot-tall man almost shed tears.

Twenty-five sleds, each of which was crushed to the point of being almost deformed, were covered with large chunks of wolf skin, and wolf meat, and even the iron cauldron was filled with wolf blood, and of course the ten brothers who had died in battle.

Zhang Wuyuan took people to dig the pit, and the rest of the people went up the mountain to chop firewood, the cave was very large, and dozens of people and a pile of sleds were stuffed in at once, and they didn't feel too crowded.

The matter was handed over to his subordinates, Liu Ji checked the seriously injured brothers one by one, and the result made his heart sink, although he did not study medicine, but who did not understand some trauma medicine on the battlefield, these more than ten people, seriously had an infection, there were no antibacterial drugs, whether they could resist the past, they could only rely on the will of God, the gold creation medicine they brought, in Liu Ji's view, only had a simple hemostatic effect.

"Don't move, it will hurt a lot, bear with it, maybe you can save your life." Liu Ji stuffed a ball of linen into the wounded's mouth, ready to do it himself.

There is no way, he can't see death without help, take out the short knife, just like that day at the Shijia Inn, Liu Ji plans to use the method of high-temperature sterilization to see if he can save some.

Before leaving, he was ready for such a day, so he brought a lot of needles and threads, threw the needle money into the boiling hot water, and rolled the knife over the fire, Liu Ji first found a more seriously injured Mo knife hand, his injuries were on the back and legs, several bloody big wounds, deep bones.

"Ahh

The wound that had been endured was picked open by the burning knife, and the injured person immediately let out a miserable howl like killing a pig, and Zhang Wuyuan, who was standing aside holding his hands and feet, frowned.

"Chen Jin, you are a killer, you don't see you call when you kill wolves, you don't call when you are injured, the knife is hot, and you scream like a dead mother, who can you listen to?"

"My mother is dead." The man named Chen Jin bit the sackcloth and muttered, but he never screamed again.

Liu Ji turned a blind eye to their interruptions, and fine sweat was pouring out on his forehead, as if these knives, needles and threads were pierced on his body, and finally after dealing with one, Chen Jin had already fallen on the temporary mat floor, leaving only the strength to hum.

"Don't sleep yet, pour a bowl of boiled broth with him, eat some blood clots, and if you don't have a fever tomorrow, you can save your life."

After saying that, he walked to the next one without looking back, and by the time he had finished dealing with a dozen or so seriously wounded, it was already late at night, but not only could he not rest, but he also had to call up those who were lightly wounded.

"The wolf's teeth are poisonous, maybe fatal, bear with them, just like Fang Caimou did, one-on-one, sew each other, the knife must be heated with fire, don't be afraid of pain, get it, even if it is not poisoned, the wound will heal faster."

His words were military orders, and for his own good, the lightly wounded who were called to wake up had no complaints, under his guidance, one by one, treating each other's injuries, it was not difficult to understand, and it didn't take long for the remaining more than ten lightly injured people to be stitched up, and he was so tired that he couldn't lift his eyelids.

"Go and rest, a certain party has just slept for a while, and I will let such and such come when I am on duty for the night."

Hearing Zhang's priceless voice, Liu Ji snorted comfortably, and staggered into a corner and wrapped himself in a pile of wolf skins.
