Chapter 47: Wisdom and self-preservation
At the beginning of the battle, Bai Qi left two hundred heavy horsemen and three hundred bow horsemen outside, and the remaining seven hundred horse thieves were led by some newly recruited masters into the stockade and joined the cruel melee.
Of the 700 horse thieves, nearly 300 were killed in the battle alone, and the remaining 400 or so were basically wounded.
The seven newly recruited masters who led the 700 people also died in the battle, namely Xiao Shannu, Zhao Mingcheng, and Dari Achi.
Among the three, Xiao Shannu and Zhao Mingcheng were recruited by Bai Qi when he recruited troops after he destroyed Huang Mazi, and Dari Achi was a Tibetan wandering swordsman who took the initiative to defect after he destroyed the Golden Harrier.
In addition to the three who died in battle, the other four masters were also scarred, but fortunately, Bai Qi bought a lot of supplies this time, and the captain used the healing scroll with the divine glimmer magic to quickly make them completely healed.
Of course, it is impossible for more than 400 wounded soldiers to have healing scrolls and magic skills, but Bai Qi bought a lot of ordinary healing sprays, medical tapes, and a large number of first-aid kits this time, these things cooperate with Bai Qi and others' first aid skills, alleviating the injuries of many wounded soldiers, only a few are too seriously injured, Bai Qi according to the tradition of horse thieves, let people end their suffering, and buried them near the Moon Lake.
More than half of the horse thieves who participated in the melee in the stockade suffered casualties, and Xiao Tie, who participated in the siege of the elite of the Jin soldiers, and fifty small leaders outside suffered no heavy casualties, only five people were killed in the battle, and seven were seriously injured, all of which were saved by Qin Qing and the captain with emergency surgery and simple magic techniques.
Among the seven serious injuries, the most seriously injured was Xiao Tie.
This foolish. Keep an eye on a golden centurion, and you will fight to the death.
During this time, he practiced the Arhat exercises taught by Bai Qi. Xiao Tie's martial arts progress, which has different talents and a solid foundation, is progressing rapidly, and in just half a month, there are already signs of breaking through the second-rate realm.
But signs are signs, after all, he has not broken through yet, and the golden soldier centurion he selected is a second-rate foreign master who is like a fake.
This Xiao Tie actually relied on his innate divine power and a lifeless bravery. and the golden soldier centurion fought on par.
At first, the centurion of the golden soldiers was reluctant to fight with Xiao Tie, and was made a bit of a wolf by his wound-for-wound treatment, but after the death of Kimbar Khan in battle. Seeing that the general trend had gone, this centurion immediately fought with Xiao Tie.
Xiao Tie, a fool, actually exchanged his life with the other party, and in the end, he killed the other party with his vigorous vitality.
Although he won, Xiao Tie's injuries were extremely serious. If it weren't for Bai Qi's sharp eyes. found him, rushed to rescue him, and immediately asked the old captain to heal the scroll for treatment, and he almost died here.
Xiao Tie was stabbed twice in the head, even if he was protected by an iron helmet, he was almost cut through the skull by the other party, and he was stabbed in the left shoulder, and this knife almost removed his shoulder. After that, the other party used a drag knife technique to cut most of his chest. Finally, a half-foot-long gap was opened in his right abdomen, and the internal organs almost flowed out.
But it was not the most fatal, the most fatal knife, and it was also the centurion's counterattack before he died, a knife that pierced him in the chest and almost stabbed him in the heart.
It took the old captain three healing scrolls to get him back......
Because of the wounded soldiers, the team marched very slowly, and Bai Qi led many of his subordinates to slowly walk at the front of the horse team.
Although the casualties were heavy, the captains and Adrian and other space soldiers were proud because they completed the challenge task with high quality, and the indigenous horse thieves were because they defeated the invincible Jin Guo Iron Horse, which was absolutely a supreme honor in the eyes of the indigenous horse thieves.
Even the injured ordinary horse thieves boasted of their bravery one by one, and they were extremely excited.
Several newly recruited indigenous leaders whispered for a while about last night's battle, and a round-faced young man with a round face who looked unusually young, with smart eyes and a lovely smile turned his head to Bai Qi and said, "Big boss, why did you give up the position of the leader of the alliance to the black wolf today?" If you fight, the position of the leader of this alliance can't fall into the hands of the black wolf! ”
This round-faced young man's name is Wang Ye, and he is one of the three third-rate masters who took the initiative to vote after Bai Qi eliminated the Golden Harrier.
This person claimed to be a certain family of the Han people in the Western Regions, and all his martial arts were family traditions, and in his generation, the family road withered, and he was alone, so he simply became a horse thief.
Wang Ye's words seemed to have hit the minds of several indigenous leaders, and they all turned to Bai Qi to look at him, waiting for his answer.
Bai Qi glanced thoughtfully at the round-faced young man and said, "The Great Song envoys are not as vulnerable as everyone thinks. ”
"You all saw the martial arts of Nalu Kaishan last night, right?"
"Not to mention anything else, in the Great Song Dynasty envoy group, there are still two people who are on par with this Lu Kaishan's martial arts......"
Hearing this, these indigenous leaders all gasped.
The horror of first-class masters, of course, these people know very well that in the entire Northwest Martial Arts, there are less than a dozen legendary first-class masters combined, but there are three first-class masters in this small envoy group, which is really unbelievable.
Wang Ye was surprised: "How is this possible? ”
Bai Qi said: "This is the news that our three masters personally infiltrated the Great Song Dynasty envoy group to find out, can it be fake?" ”
"In addition to these three first-class masters, there are also five hundred great Song martial arts masters in the envoy group to escort them."
"The three hundred masters who cooperated with us last night are only the weaker ones."
"Coupled with the five hundred Great Song Forbidden Army carrying heavy crossbows, this envoy group is by no means so easy to take."
Several other horse thief leaders couldn't help but nod when they heard Bai Qi's words, only Wang Ye didn't seem to give up, and asked again: "Big boss, no matter how strong they are, they can't even have a thousand people, and we have six or seven thousand people, is there anything else we can't take?" ”
Bai Qi glanced at him and said, "There are many masters of these Song people, if you drive ordinary brothers to fight hard, how many brothers do you say will die before they can be taken down?" ”
Wang Ye said disapprerovingly: "No matter how many brothers die, as long as you can take it down, it will definitely be worth it!" ”
Bai Qi smiled faintly: "You're right, but wouldn't it be better if someone else's brother died and took it down?" ”
"Why did I put you on top last night as a vanguard? Isn't it just for the reputation of an alliance leader? Otherwise, with our Black Hawk ability, there would be such a big casualty? ”
Speaking of this, he sneered and said, "When it really takes it down, who do you say dares to give us a little bit of Black Eagle?" ”
Several indigenous leaders nodded frequently, and excitedly echoed Bai Qi's words.
Wang Ye also laughed and said: "The big boss is wise! ”
After everyone boasted and patted the horses, Wang Ye asked Adrian tentatively: "Three masters, have you ever heard what gifts the Great Song envoys have brought to the Mongolian Great Khan this time?" Let's listen to it, it also makes everyone happy. ”
Adrian smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing more than some gold and jade jewelry, silk and satin, and when we intercept the red goods, don't you know?" (To be continued......)
