Chapter 45: Off the Battlefield
Zhang Tiancheng didn't know about the counterattack outside the canyon, and after discovering that the enemy was retreating, he quickly packed up his things and prepared to leave the battlefield, since the mission never appeared, leaving the battlefield was the best choice.
In fact, there is nothing to clean up, mainly rummaging through the corpses of the elite cavalry that were killed before, hoping to turn out some good things, and I don't know when it will be suddenly sent back, if you can get more benefits, get more, although the silver is not valuable, but those jade bracelets and other things are still quite valuable.
I quickly rummaged through the dozens of corpses that had fallen in the canyon, and to my surprise, I didn't find anything like gold, silver, jade and other jewelry on these people, but only found some silver ingots that looked like horses' hooves, and there were a few on each of them, and only less than ten kilograms of silver ingots were found on the bodies of more than 30 people.
Although this silver is worthless, a kilogram can be worth three or four thousand, so this large pile of silver seems to be worth ten gold coins.
There were still more than two dozen unscathed war horses at the scene, and the shelling just now did not scare these war horses away, but lowered their heads and gnawed on some slightly dry dead grass on the ground.
The mission didn't appear as scheduled, and it wasn't clear how long you would stay in this world, so it was better to master the means of transportation in this world as soon as possible, and you might encounter other enemies when you got out of this valley, and it would be much easier to escape on horseback.
Try to get close to those war horses, although some of them will dodge, but most of them will not deliberately avoid people, and they can catch the reins of a few war horses quite smoothly.
As soon as he stepped on the stirrup and lifted his legs, he easily got on the horse's back, and there was no situation where the war horse man stood up and fell off the horse, although he had never learned to ride a horse, but these already domesticated war horses did not seem to be difficult to control.
Trying to gently clamp the horse's belly, the war horse suddenly jogged in small steps, controlled the reins, turning, stopping, etc. was much simpler than expected, at least much simpler than learning to drive, but it took a few minutes to master the basic essentials.
Of course, so quickly mastered the riding and their own agility and balance ability is very high, and it doesn't matter if you are bold enough, and this horse is a bit similar to the high-end model that has added the automatic driving function, for example, as long as you give a little hint to go, the horse will start and set off on its own, and when there is a road, it will walk along the road by itself, and it will automatically avoid obstacles, and it will stop by itself when it encounters danger, which is safer than the most awesome self-driving car......
Although it was the first time to ride a horse, he suddenly found that he actually liked this sport, and like a skilled rider, he drove the war horse around the canyon and arrived in front of Yun'er.
"Yun'er, do you know how to ride a horse?"
“…… The slave family has never ridden a horse? ”
"Come up, brother, take you!" He stretched out his hand as he spoke.
Hearing Zhang Tiancheng's words, the little girl stretched out her hand a little shyly, but she was directly lifted on the horse's back by Zhang Tiancheng.
"Girl, your weight is really light enough, you need to eat something!"
“…… The slave family hasn't eaten since they had eaten a little yesterday morning! ”
"Why don't you say it sooner, wait!" As he spoke, he jumped off his horse and quickly pulled out a lot of drinks such as beef jerky and mare's milk from several soldiers who had been killed.
But at this moment, because the little girl was a little nervous, she accidentally pinched the belly of the horse, and the horse, which was quite docile, after receiving the order to set off, instantly took a step and jogged in small steps.
The horse suddenly ran up, but the frightened little girl exclaimed, "Big brother save me...... The horse is crazy......" while screaming and clutching his mane, the horse also rushed faster and faster, so that Zhang Tiancheng hurriedly jumped on another war horse and chased after him.
"Sister, don't clamp your legs so tightly and relax, and don't pull the horse's mane, the horse will only run faster when it hurts, grab the reins and relax...... it's okay" Zhang Tiancheng tried to teach this girl some tips for horseback riding, although he is also a novice, but there is a saying called being well-informed, in the era of the future information explosion, of course, he will know a lot of common sense.
It's just that I don't know if it's because this girl has been hungry for too long, and after a while, she was a little exhausted, and she looked like she was about to fall off the horse, so she quickly approached and reached out and grabbed the reins of the war horse.
"I'm sorry Brother Zhang, the slave family is too stupid." Sitting in Zhang Tiancheng's arms, the frightened pale face finally recovered a lot.
"I don't blame you, it's normal to be afraid, I was negligent, let's eat something first!" As he spoke, he took out some jerky and a bag of mare's milk that had been turned out earlier!
"Brother Zhang eats first, and then you eat when the slave family is full!"
"Sister, hurry up and eat, don't faint from hunger, I'll have to feed you when the time comes!" As he spoke, he directly opened the lid of the water bladder and handed it to Yun'er, "Drinking some mare's milk first and then eating jerky will irritate the stomach less!" ”
"Brother Zhang, you are so good to the slave family, if there is an afterlife, the slave family will definitely repay you for being a cow and a horse!"
"Sister, don't wait for the next life, do you have any tasks for me?" I tried to ask, but the little girl was at a loss, and she couldn't get the task out of this girl, so she could only give up for the time being.
……
On a small hillside, I borrowed the scope and carefully searched the surrounding area, and there was an area seven or eight miles away that was still dusty, and many soldiers could be vaguely seen chasing each other, and there was no formation at all.
It seems that the war is not over, but the distance is relatively far away, and it is considered temporary safety, since there is no mission, of course, I will not take the initiative to go to the battlefield, but there are a lot of things left on the battlefield, so I still habitually rummage and collect.
As long as it is a valuable thing that can be used, almost all of them have been collected, and even some dry food and mare's milk and other things have not been spared, of course, it is impossible for the space backpack to hold so many things, but there are several abandoned flat carriages on the battlefield, which should be used to transport grain and grass, but it solves the problem of transporting captured materials.
Moreover, there are many war horses in the canyon, some of which cannot be caught, but there are some of them who are more docile and can easily catch them and pull the cart, and set off away from the battlefield with a full harvest.
I don't know if the little girl is really scared or deliberate.,Anyway, I can't learn to ride a horse.,So you can only ride with two people.,As for why don't you let her go to the flatbed.,Of course, this is for safety.,If you suddenly encounter the enemy chasing the goods or something, you will lose it.,This girl can't lose it......
As for what it's like to ride with a beautiful woman, the first is a little hot, and the second is still a little hot...... I can't help but sigh, if it is the season of spring in March, it will be perfect.
The two of them still rode together and left the battlefield unhurriedly, but behind them were five carts of things pulled by five horses, which seemed to be legendary darts, but there were too few people.
