103. War Horse 2

He Boqiang's rescue of a war horse with a broken leg from the battlefield has become one of the main topics of the second squad in recent days.

The soldiers of the second squad agreed that the last bit of dignity should be left for this horse with broken legs, so that it could die a dignified death, at most everyone should not enjoy its horse meat, and dig a cemetery on the high post to bury it, even the soldiers who died in the expeditionary force did not have this kind of treatment, this proposal was rejected by He Boqiang.

The war horse with a broken leg refused to lie on the ground honestly, and forced himself to stand up several times, which caused He Boqiang to loosen the splint tied to the horse's legs, and the horse's legs, which had just recovered some, caused fractures again, and finally He Boqiang had to use a tarpaulin to lift the war horse up and hang it on the tree, exposing only the horse's head and four horse legs outside, so that the war horse could be honest.

Since the war horse was hung from a tree, He Boqiang has had an extra task every day, that is, every morning to wait for the dew to dissipate and run to the place below the hillside where the water and grass are abundant to cut the grass and feed the horse.

Fortunately, the second squad has been stationed on this slope for the past few days, and the hoplite soldiers have built some fortifications around this slope to prevent the sudden attack of the demons, and if the demons want to occupy this slope, they must break through the layers of defenses laid on the battlefield, so the infantry soldiers stationed here only need to prevent the sneak attack of the demon squad at night.

The second team was stationed on this slope for almost a week, and encountered a surprise attack by demons for two consecutive nights, but they were discovered in time by the secret sentry below the hillside and successfully stopped the raid of the demons.

He Boqiang will try to use the divine power in his body to heal the wounds of the war horse every day, the pale golden light shines from He Boqiang's hand, he can feel the warmth emanating from the faint light, whenever he treats the war horse hanging from the tree, it is extremely quiet, and it seems that he can also feel the restoring power in the light.

On the morning of the fifth day, He Boqiang ran to feed the war horse, and found that the linen bandages and clips wrapped around the horse's legs had been broken.

He Boqiang didn't expect the broken leg of the war horse to recover so quickly, trying to untie the rope hanging on the war horse, so that the four horses on the ground, the horse stood firmly on the grass under the tree, the two injured front legs kept kicking the grass on the ground, looking like he wanted to break free from the restraints and run around the hillside.

He Boqiang untied the rope on its body, and the war horse rushed out like an arrow from the string, and ran a few laps on the grass on the hillside, and finally stopped at the place where the water and grass were abundant at the bottom of the hillside, and ate the grass quietly.

At this time, He Boqiang realized that the magical power released by his body nodes actually had healing power.

He Boqiang sat under the tree, concentrating on controlling the power of the sea of divine consciousness, and found that in fact, those pale golden powers came to the body to be lit up at various nodes, and a trace of divine power was scarce from the nodes, forming an air mass in He Boqiang's sea of consciousness, with his own thoughts, the air mass can reach all parts of the body, and it can also be revealed through the palm of the hand, but after that power reaches the outside of the body, it takes more spiritual power to control it, and the divine power maintained by this spiritual power will eventually dissipate with the wind in the palm of the hand.

Now the nodes in He Boqiang's body are still being lit up in an orderly manner, which may be the reason for the frequent battles recently, and the number of nodes that have been lit has reached fifteen, but He Boqiang can feel that the growth of physical strength is very slow, as if he needs some opportunity to break through.

Unconsciously sat on this high post for a long time, and when He Boqiang opened his eyes, he found that the war horse was actually standing quietly beside him, and was lowering his head and eating the grass under his feet.

After a while, seeing that He Boqiang didn't have any follow-up movements, he 'tapped' and shook his jujube-colored ponytail and ran under the tree.

He Boqiang wanted to walk to the side of the war horse, but the war horse didn't seem to want He Boqiang to approach, and one person and one horse kept a safe distance of about ten meters.

"Let's go, get out of here, run away, don't come back, it's going to get more and more dangerous, don't be a mount for those heavy cavalry, you can enjoy your own freedom......"

He Boqiang said in jerky indigenous language to the jujube red war horse.

It's not that he can't pronounce it, but every time he wants to speak imperial Chinese, he becomes a state of losing his voice, He Boqiang feels that this may be some psychological obstacles, but looking back, he feels that his psychology is actually quite healthy, and there is no precursor of autism.

The horse naturally didn't understand what He Boqiang was saying, but it saw He Boqiang muttering to it, shook the mane on its neck, and took two steps towards He Boqiang.

He Boqiang felt that he had established initial trust with this war horse, and when he approached it again, the war horse did not dodge.

"Let's go, don't come back!"

He Boqiang said it again to the war horse, as if he was saying it to himself.

The horse seemed to enjoy He Boqiang's touch, but leaned his body towards He Boqiang, He Boqiang walked behind the war horse, slapped the horse on the horse's stock, and the war horse let out a neigh, jumped forward sharply, and rushed to the bottom of the hillside in a few big steps.

As Surdak climbed the hill, he saw the horse galloping away.

He climbed up to the hill out of breath and said to He Boqiang, "Little Dack, that horse has run away......"

The tarpaulin and some fragmentary linen bandages scattered on the grass were scattered, the two splints had been broken, He Boqiang squatted aside, refolded the tarpaulin, and saw Surdak running over, smiled at him and nodded, indicating that he knew.

"Little Duck, you probably didn't plan to let the horse go after healing it in the first place, did you?"

Surdak leaned over and helped Surdak fold the tarpaulin, and couldn't help but ask.

Seeing He Boqiang nodding with a smile, Surdak wiped his face speechlessly, not wanting to say anything.

After a while, He Boqiang packed all his belongings and walked down the hill with Surdak.

At this time, Surdak remembered the purpose of running here, and the second team finally waited for the change of guard, and this time returned to the Moyunling camp, so that they could have a good rest.

Although the battle of Moyunling has begun, the battle is far from fierce.

To be precise, both sides are currently testing each other and have not invested a lot of troops in this battlefield.

The demons need time to build the fortifications on Moyun Ridge stronger.

And the expeditionary force Solomon. Marquis Bowen intends to advance steadily and steadily into the camp step by step, relying on the advantage of bed crossbows and catapults to strike from a distance to suppress the demon warriors on the battlefield. Heavy cavalry and Constructed Knights advanced from the front, crushing the main force of the demons with a non-stop attack.

Towards noon, the 5th Brigade of the 58th Heavy Infantry Regiment, which had come to change the guard, officially took over, and Baron Sidney led the 4th Brigade of the 57th Regiment to withdraw to the rear camp.

When he left the battlefield, He Boqiang also saw the war horse running wantonly among the mountains, as if he had followed the fourth brigade for a while before he got into the dense forest and finally disappeared.

……

Surdak has also been preparing for the squadron leader assessment recently.

His biggest shortcoming is that the warrior level has just reached level eight, and the warriors of this level only meet the requirements of the squad leader, and the promotion regulations of the Green Empire army clearly require that the position of squadron leader of the heavy infantry regiment must reach the peak of at least level nine, and it is impossible for Surdak to break through the level of nine in the short term, so this is his biggest obstacle on the road to promotion.

Since Surdak is ready to make a Bo, of course He Boqiang wants to support it unconditionally......
