Chapter 844: Horse Blood and Water

Time: May 25th, that is, the day Hu Biao and others teleported to the mission world, it was about ten o'clock in the evening.

Location: Panlonggang, Yuexiu Mountain, above the Sifang Fort.

Under the bright moonlight, a sultry smell of meat permeated the hill; That's Little White Face, a little brother from the Northeast region, who is skillfully roasting horse chops.

I don't know if I don't look at it, the little white face still has quite beautiful cooking skills.

Especially the barbecue aspect, which is quite a bit level.

Everything can be barbecued, and the compatriots in the Northeast seem to have a special talent for this.

Under his control, the horses were rustling on the fire; Especially when I sprinkled this light load, I didn't throw away some salt, cumin, chili noodles and other condiments, and the fragrance was simply overbearing.

It's a pity that such a smell of 'scratching, scratching' goes straight to people's noses at the same time, and it also makes everyone on the hill feel hungry at the same time, and the emotions in their hearts are becoming more and more anxious.

It is actually a very normal thing for everyone to have such a reaction.

They hadn't eaten for more than ten hours since they crossed over; The big meal I ate before crossing over had already been digested cleanly.

Not to mention that in this process, because of battles, construction of fortifications, etc.

All of them, in terms of physical exertion, is enormous.

Most importantly, they need to consume enough nutrients and calories to ensure that their physical injuries can recover more quickly.

If they can ensure that there is enough food, the recovery ability of the old birds of the clan is at least several times that of ordinary people; It allows them to get back to more combat power a little sooner.

If not, of course, the recovery speed is about the same as that of ordinary people.

A little stronger, not much stronger, is equivalent to the conservation of energy.

It's just that in the face of such fragrant horse chops, the hungry crowd is a little unable to speak; Because they haven't drunk water for a long time, they feel that their mouths and throats are hot.

Anyway, it's just a sentence: if you don't eat, you're hungry, and if you eat, you're thirsty, and you're in a dilemma.

For a while, they originally wanted to wait until midnight to secretly fetch the water back before eating and drinking, but they also kept wavering.

looked at each other, and finally the concubine shouted impatiently: "I don't care, and I can't wait for the water to come back in the middle of the night before eating and drinking."

I'm going to wait for you, I'd rather drink some horse blood to quench my thirst now. ”

After finishing speaking, the concubine picked up a large bowl left by the defenders of the Qing Army, scooped out most of the bowl of horse blood from it, and poured it into her mouth.

In one breath, he drank most of the bowl of horse blood.

In this process, the noble concubine girl who had a proud face before drinking, her expression was wonderful.

No way! After the horse's blood was entered, the smell of the fishy smell went straight to the human heavenly spirit cover; In addition, the taste of this thing is still very dry.

Almost, it made the concubine unable to hold back and vomit.

Fortunately, in addition to many beneficial and harmful components to the human body, the vast majority of ingredients in raw horse blood are still water.

As the horse's blood dried up overnight, I withstood the initial feeling of nausea and nausea, and ignored the constant feeling of heat.

The concubine finally felt that the feeling that her mouth and throat were about to smoke was relieved a lot.

Even the cells of the whole body are about to cheer at this moment.

Immediately, he took a dagger and cut off a long one on the horse's row on the fire; It's still very hot, but I just take a big bite.

As soon as the horse meat was entered, her eyes lit up and she gave a thumbs up to the little white face.

Because the fat in the horse meat is relatively small, and the fiber is relatively hard, if the craftsmanship is slightly worse during processing, it will taste very good.

It's like biting wood, and it's really not delicious.

However, the horse steak grilled by the little white face is a good way to avoid such shortcomings.

Seeing this, the little white face shouted with a look on his face: "That is, there is no water, otherwise I can toss a table of horse meat for everyone." ”

And the rest of the team all looked the same when they saw such a girl as the concubine.

Immediately, there was no way to continue to boil, and it was only in the second half of the night that they had plans to drink water and eat meat, so they picked up earthen bowls one after another.

After scooping up a bowl of horse blood, he pinched his nose and poured it into his mouth.

Suddenly, on their faces, they all showed a rather obvious look of pain, and even many people did not let themselves vomit by covering their mouths.

It's like sitting opposite the concubine, a beautiful Yanma girl like a war elephant.

The expression on that one is really wonderful.

After seeing such a scene, the concubine instinctively drove towards Lao Tie: "Lao Tie, you can't do this with the war elephant, you have to practice more." ”

Xu was too fast, and the other people were stunned for a while before they reacted.

Knowing what the concubine is talking about.

Suddenly, in the midst of a huge laughter, the war elephant jumped up from the ground to chase the concubine, and the concubine did not forget to gnaw on the horse row in her hand while running in circles.

The war elephant was chasing Xiaohui, and seeing that he couldn't catch up, Lao Tie was after showing a weird smile.

When he stepped up, he kicked Lao Tie to the ground, and suddenly everyone's laughter became louder.

Including the three novice rookies this time, Yu Hong and other green battalion soldiers, as well as Henry, a foreign devil captive, are all like this, the mood and expression that were originally gloomy and bleak are obviously much better, too much.

Even Henry's foreign devil almost swallowed his tongue.

Because I don't know, if this thing is too hungry, or the so-called Great Yin Empire, there is really nothing to eat.

In short, he thought that these horse steaks tonight were the most delicious food he had ever eaten in his life.

And there is absolutely no one, such a statement.

In this way, after drinking dozens of catties of horse blood, everyone finally relieved the thirst in their mouths and began to eat horse chops.

Even not long ago, when I was about to kill this war horse with only one breath left, when I heard such a news, I cried so much that I brought pear blossoms.

Even the God of Wealth, who shouted, 'Or you can kill me', is bowing his head and gnawing on his mouth.

When the concubine threw away the hand, the dog looked at the clean bones that he hated, and asked casually, 'Is the God of Wealth delicious?'.

After this girl looked up, there was a classic line in her mouth: "Fragrant, really fragrant~"

Under the astonishing amount of food of these people, the two horse rows were eaten clean in a blink of an eye.

In the following time, they roasted more than 100 catties of horse meat and ate it, which made them barely fill their stomachs.

After eating enough and not being so thirsty, everyone's mood rose significantly; If there must be anything that upsets them, it's the moonlight in the sky, which is not very round, but bright.

Under such a round of moonlight, it is not very convenient to go to fetch water in the middle of the night.

But even so, everyone still did not give up on the plan to fetch water in the middle of the night.

They are on the mountain, although there are still AT, war elephants, Barong, and Lao Hei four-person system war horses, and they can also kill horses and drink blood several times.

The crux of the matter is that they know that the practice of drinking horse blood can only be an emergency, and it will not work at all for a long time; The body can't bear it.

In arranging for Yu Hong and other green battalion soldiers, three novice rookies followed the old birds to take turns to start the vigil.

and dug a few small pits in the ground, first put down an earthen bowl, and covered it with a piece of oilcloth left by the Green Army, and some branches and leaves.

The rest of the people were all cultivating cross-legged, or healing.

Soon after, when the horse meat in the stomach is quickly digested, a lot of nutrients and calories are also produced; This heat was mobilized by them again, accelerating the healing of the wound......

******

A few hours later, Hu Biao did not open his eyes immediately after finishing his work, but carefully felt the physical condition.

Soon I could feel that I had more strength in my body.

Even the many wounds were faintly itchy; This is a good thing, as it means that the wound is healing quickly and well.

The matter of internal strength healing is really quite reliable.

Unfortunately, even so, it is impossible to fully recover in just a few days; Not to mention that they also faced many battles, with the threat of continued injuries and death.

But overall, it's good news.

With such a cognition, Hu Biao took out a mechanical pocket watch from his arms; Squinting his eyes, he looked at the moonlight above his head.

That's right! It's a pocket watch, and in the context of the mission world in this year, according to the rules of the system, there are naturally more things that can be brought over.

The premise is that Hu Biao and they are ready in advance.

This old pocket watch, which is still an antique watch, is a small object prepared by Hu Biao and them in advance.

When I saw the time above, it was already 3:17 a.m., and the originally planned operation to go down the mountain to fetch water was about to begin.

For such an operation, they even gave up the tactics of shooting black guns at night and harassing the Yin army.

For this reason, Hu Biao limped down and walked over to the position not far from the left-hand side, where Ba Long, the singer, and Huang Yizhi were still meditating.

The above three people are the main members of tonight's water fighting operation.

The reason for choosing the three of them to fetch water is actually very simple, because the three of them are not only old birds in the team, but they are also quite good in terms of body style and light skills.

Crucially, their injuries are the lightest.

Specifically, how light is it?

Not counting those bruises, bone cracks and other injuries, Huang Yizhi only had five gunshot wounds on his body, and the first shot in the lower abdomen was relatively deep, and it did not completely penetrate the fat on his belly and break his intestines.

The singer was shot six times, one of which was serious in the waist.

According to Nan Ze, an old Chinese medicine doctor, there may be a waist that has no function in the future; But it's better than hitting the thigh, and it doesn't affect the activity too much.

Barong was shot four times, one of which knocked out half of his right ear, but half of his ear was missing, which did not affect his hearing, let alone his movements.

So at that time, Hu Biao looked around, and directly named the three of them to fetch water.

"Singer, Yellow Fat Man, Ba Long, wake up quickly~" After Hu Biao opened his mouth, he screamed quietly.

After the three of them opened their eyes, Hu Biao hurriedly asked, "How do you feel?" If it doesn't work, I'll be replaced. ”

Faced with such a problem, the singer raised his sleeves, wiped the already dry blood at the corner of his mouth, and gave a good news in his mouth:

"It feels much better, it should be fine."

The other Ba Long and Huang Yizhi didn't speak, but nodded to indicate that they could, and there was no need to change people.

Seeing this, Hu Biao didn't have any more ink, but just explained the last sentence:

"That's fine! Let's get started, remember that something is important, don't force it if you can't do it, and always think of some other way.

If it rains tomorrow, don't you have to worry about the water, after all, the eastern part of Guangdong is notoriously rainy in summer......

A few minutes later, the three singers took off their armor and were dressed lightly.

Holding a wooden barrel in one hand and several large bamboo tubes with stoppers hanging from his body, he began to quietly move towards the small lake in the southwest direction, all the way to action.

If Hu Biao and others are spoken, they will not be idle here.

Because the Yin army is not stupid, since nightfall, in the midst of people shouting and neighing, a new group of lobster soldiers has arrived at the bottom of the mountain.

Let them directly exceed eight hundred in the total strength of the infantry; The number of artillery pieces of various calibers has reached as many as 15.

With such a force, there is also the range of muskets and artillery.

They surrounded the entire Panlongong on all sides and sealed it tightly.

Therefore, Hu Biao and them, if they don't make a little movement, under the bright moonlight today, the actions of Huang Yizhi and the three of them are really not good.

At the same time that the yellow fat man set off, the old birds of the team, also under the cover of trees and shrubs, began to touch the hill in the northeast direction.

After reaching the bottom of the mountain, they picked up the muskets in their hands.

Finally, when Hu Biao pulled the trigger of his fingertips.

At most, a quarter of a second, the others also pulled the trigger; Suddenly, fifteen or sixteen muskets were fired one after another, breaking the calm of the night.

Even if there were three hundred and seventy or eighty miles away, there were five lobster soldiers who were carrying out a vigil by a fire.

Three of them, like wooden stakes, were put on the ground and stopped moving.

There was another who missed the vital point and fell to the ground with a scream, and the only lucky one was when he grabbed the musket in his hand.

The mouth also shouted in horror: "Enemy attack~"

Under such a movement, a large number of lobster soldiers who were originally hidden were all out of the way and fired at this side; Many of the sleeping lobster soldiers in the camp also rushed out of the tents with muskets.

Even the artilleryman, who slept directly next to the cannon, quickly adjusted the muzzle of the cannon after getting up.

However, two or three seconds later, he turned the wheel and poured some ignition powder on the fire door, and Hu Biao and others, who had completed firing again, fired one after another, and once again put down three or four lobster soldiers.

In the following time, they also kept firing at the lobster soldiers.

Relying on the firepower advantage of the revolver, more than a dozen of them in a short period of time managed to beat the firepower density of half a company of lobster soldiers.

The Yin army camp in this direction soon became completely chaotic.

Unfortunately, at the foot of the hill to the southwest, there were three singers hiding in the bushes; Looking at the lobster soldiers and artillerymen in front of him, in the loud sound of gunfire, he was not moved at all.

There is no scene where I move at all and go to support.

couldn't help but glance at each other, and silently sighed in his heart, knowing that these Yin soldiers were not fooled.

But even so, thinking of the taste of thirst, and the smell of horse blood that rushed straight to the heavenly spirit cover, they still didn't give up the idea of fetching water.

After the cat bent on his waist, he ventured out of the bushes where he was sheltering.

As a result, more than a dozen meters were found, and hundreds of meters away on the left-hand side, a firelight lit up.

At such a distance, the buckshot naturally didn't know where it flew, and it didn't hit any of the singers at all.

But such a movement also means that they have been discovered.

Seeing the platoon guns raised by Qi Shushu, as well as the awakened artillerymen, after thinking of Hu Biao's explanation, Huang Yizhi was not even willing at all.

Still with great helplessness in his mouth, he shouted out: "Withdraw ......"

Early the next morning, as long as everyone looked up, they could see the cloudless space and the sun that had just risen in the sky.

Special! It seems that today is another sunny day, and the probability of rain is even smaller.

After getting up for a long time, everyone who drank a glass of water looked at a large earthen bowl in front of them, almost 600 milliliters of water, and instinctively squirmed in their throats.

That's all they got last night through the condensation effect, and the collection of dew.

Of course, it is a good surprise to be able to get so much water, but it is too little to distribute it to so many people.

Just when Hu Biao was thinking about whether to divide it and let everyone moisten their throats, or keep it for emergencies.

Lao Hei's already hoarse voice came from afar: "Lao Hu, the Yin army seems to be about to make a move, and they don't care about the noble captive who is a little literate......"
