Although Zhao Ziliang said that it was because of the thick armor that blocked most of the damage of the arrows, in fact, only he knew that although the defense of the Mingguang armor was strong, it was not airtight, especially the Mingguang armor for cavalry, for the convenience and comfort of riding, the armor on the abdomen was very short.
In order to protect his whole body, he had already worn a silk robe close to his body, which was made of raw silk and woven very finely. It is difficult for an arrow to penetrate this garment, and it only penetrates the wound along with the arrow and cloth. Due to the blockage of the silk cloth, the arrow is generally not too deep into the body, and the arrow can be easily pulled out after being injured. After pulling out all the arrows, he also lost a lot of blood, and the wound was quickly healed by the cool qi flowing from the wrench, but the cool qi that healed the wound could not replenish the lost blood and vitality, which was also the reason why Zhao Ziliang was very weak at the moment.
Zhao Ziliang felt weak and his head was a little dizzy, he knew that this was due to a lot of blood loss, and he had to supplement some nutrients, at this time he was not only very weak, but also thirsty, and more importantly, he had to supplement some food, he asked: "Princess, do you have anything to eat?" ”
"Huh?" Panzhu Junxiu was stunned for a moment, turned his head and looked at the corpses of either humans or horses, where is there food? The living war horse had already run away, but she quickly reacted and said, "I have a blanket on the back of my horse, there should be food, I'll look for it, you wait for me."
After a while, Panzhu Junxiu came over with a deerskin bag, opened it, and saw that there were some jerky in it, and there was a layer of white animal fat on the jerky, I don't know if it was beef jerky or mutton jerky.
Zhao Ziliang urgently needs to replenish his body's energy now, where is he still paying attention to so much, grab a handful and send it to his mouth piece by piece, the jerky is only a little salty, greasy, and there is no other seasoning taste, but Zhao Ziliang eats it, this is beef.
Panzhu Junxiu always felt uncomfortable staying in this place full of corpses, so he said to Zhao Ziliang: "Let's go to the bottom of the hill and eat while resting, there is a lee!" ”
Zhao Ziliang had food in his mouth, and vaguely agreed: "Hmm! ”
Panzhu Junxiu led the war horse with one hand and Zhao Ziliang to the bottom of the hill with the other, and after Zhao Ziliang sat down, she picked up a cowhide water bag and walked over and handed it to him.
After Zhao Ziliang ate some beef jerky and drank some water, his spirit improved a lot.
At this time, they felt that the ground under them was trembling slightly, the expressions of the two changed, they glanced at each other, Zhao Ziliang immediately lay on the ground and put his ears to the ground, listened for about a minute, got up and said: "Princess, the direction of the vibration should be the south, it is cavalry, there are a lot of people, about eighty horsemen!" ”
When Panzhu Junxiu heard this, he immediately rejoiced: "Could it be that your attendant brought reinforcements over?" ”
Zhao Ziliang thought for a moment and said: "I can't say, this place is in the north of Qingshui Lake, at least thirty miles away from Qingshui Lake, the caravan that goes to Tuoyun Fort generally has to rest and replenish drinking water by Qingshui Lake, if there are Turist cavalry coming from the west, it is not surprising, I hope it is our own people, if it is the cavalry of Turkish, then we are afraid that we will be in danger this time!" ”
After a few minutes, the rumbling sound of the cavalry galloping quickly came from the south, which completely verified that Zhao Ziliang's method of listening to the ground just now was correct, and the two led the war horse to climb the small hill with difficulty.
The line of sight here is wide, and you can see in the distance, and the figure of a group of cavalry quickly appeared in sight, and when they got closer, the two finally saw the identity of the pair of cavalry.
"It's your men! Look, that's your entourage, Zheng San! And what is the first gang leader? ”
"Hokan!" Zhao Ziliang said with a smile on his face.
"Yes, it's Huo Kan, it's them who are here, now we're not afraid!" Panzhu Junxiu jumped for joy.
In fact, if you really want to talk about martial arts, Panzhu Junxiu's martial arts are not low, Zhao Ziliang thinks that none of his subordinates Huo Kan, He Zhong and Wei Meng are her opponents, Panzhu Junxiu just hasn't experienced a real life-and-death fight, she was so flustered and unbearable before, once she gets used to the cruelty on the battlefield, she must be a brave and good fighting female general!
"We're here!" Panzhu Junxiu jumped up and waved his hand and shouted.
Huo Kan and Wei Meng each came galloping with men and horses, and at the bottom of the hill, everyone finally converged, Zheng San jumped down and ran over to look at Zhao Ziliang before the war horse completely stopped: "Brother Liang, I can rest assured that you are okay, otherwise I will not forgive myself if I die!" ”
Zhao Ziliang patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "It's okay, I asked you to find reinforcements, didn't you find reinforcements now?" If there are any more enemies, we need not be afraid! ”
Zheng San saw that Zhao Ziliang was wrapped in a white cloth soaked in blood stains all over his body, and he knew that he was not lightly injured, and almost cried, "Brother Liang, you will comfort me."
At this time, Wei Meng and Huo Kan arranged for their soldiers to clean up the battlefield and then came over to salute and said, "General, deputy castle master, are you okay?" ”
Panzhu Junxiu glared angrily and said, "Why are you so slow? When you come, the daylilies are cold! Fortunately, Zhao Ziliang and I have two lives, and we also owe him to his bravery, otherwise you would have been two corpses when you saw us, hum! ”
Panzhu Junxiu's identity is much higher than Wei Meng and Huo Kan, and the two blame it on their heads, and the two of them suddenly sighed in their hearts, this is over, it is not a good thing to be remembered by this master, it seems that the future will not be easy.
The two hurriedly knelt down on one knee and pleaded guilty: "The general forgives me, after Zheng San returned to the camp to report the news, I came immediately, and I didn't make any stops on the way, but I didn't expect to put the general and the deputy castle master in a crisis!" ”
Zhao Ziliang saw that Panzhu Junxiu began to play the princess's temper again, and he had no choice but to excuse Huo Kan and Wei Meng, after all, these people were his subordinates, and even if they wanted to be punished, they should be punished by him.
He said: "Princess, this matter is not to blame them, it is also our bad luck, we met the cavalry of the Hera tribe, I think we should go back first, the princess is also injured, it is better to let the doctor treat the injury as soon as possible!" ”
At this time, a chief came over and reported: "The general, the deputy castle master, and the two gang commanders have all cleaned up the battlefield, there are 66 corpses of the cavalry of the Hera tribe, all the four female attendants of the general have been killed in battle, and 65 pairs of leather armor, a pair of iron armor, 66 weapons of various kinds, 66 riding bows, 720 arrows, and 28 gold and silver jewelry."
Panzhu Junxiu didn't play petty anymore this time, and didn't find fault again, and said, "Okay, then go back first!" ”
Next, Huo Kan and Wei Meng took away all the loot, and the number of corpses at the scene shocked both Wei Meng and Huo Kan, and when they learned from Panzhu Junxiu that these Hera cavalry were basically killed by Zhao Ziliang, everyone's eyes looking at Zhao Ziliang began to be full of admiration.
After returning to the camp on the shore of Qingshui Lake, Chen Mingqian, who had already received the news, immediately rushed over from Tuoyun Fort with a medicine box on his back, and he was also startled when he saw Zhao Ziliang wrapped in a bloody white cloth all over his body, "Deputy Fort Master, why are you still riding a horse with such a serious injury?" Hurry up, I'll show you the condition of the wound."
Zhao Ziliang sent the others away, took Chen Mingqian to his tent, and circled the bloody white cloth on his body, revealing a strong, sturdy body, only to see that his skin was smooth and shiny, where could he see a wound?
Chen Mingqian was dumbfounded, and stammered: "This and this ・・・・・・."
Zhao Ziliang also knew that this matter would definitely not be hidden, especially for the doctors in the army, after a long time, people would definitely notice that he was abnormal. He looked at Chen Mingqian and smiled helplessly: "Doctor Chen, I have been like this since I was a child, my body is different from ordinary people, even if I am injured, I will heal quickly, and I don't even have a wound, this time is the same, but this time the injury is too serious, I was shot with more than a dozen arrows all over my body, although the wound is healed, but my body is really weak!" ”
Chen Mingqian listened to Zhao Ziliang's words, his eyes widened suddenly, and he muttered: "I see, the deputy castle master is so talented, this is not a bad thing, but a great good thing!" ”
Speaking of this, he hurriedly reached over and grabbed Zhao Ziliang's wrist and said, "Chen Mou will check the pulse of the deputy castle master."
Through the pulse, Chen Mingqian said: "The deputy castle master's body is indeed a little weak, but the deputy castle lord does not have to worry, Chen prescribes a few pairs of medicines, as long as the general takes the medicine on time, Chen guarantees that the deputy castle lord will recover in ten days and half a month, and he is still as strong as before."
"Then trouble Dr. Chen!" Zhao Ziliang smiled and arched his hand, and remembered that he couldn't spread this matter, and said: "Doctor Chen, my body is different from ordinary people, and I ask Dr. Chen to keep it a secret for me, I don't want others to know!" ”
Chen Mingqian nodded and said: "This matter really has to be kept secret, if your enemies know the secrets of your body, it may be possible to deal with you according to your situation, you can rest assured, this matter is up to Chen, except for the general and me, no one else will know!" ”
"Thank you, Dr. Chen!"
