Volume 2 The War of Strife Chapter 63 The Fortress of Yuanshan
"Whew~Whew~"
Wheezing, Qian Xiao knelt on the ground, staring at the wolf corpse in front of him, his spear inserted into the giant wolf's eyes, submerged more than thirty centimeters, warm blood left from his head, and a five-centimeter-long scratch remained in the center of his eyebrows, almost reaching his eyes.
Blood flowed into his eyes, his vision turned red, his body trembled, and if he had been slow just now, he might have died by now.
The giant wolf died, the body was still shaking unconsciously, and Yi Fei, who was not injured and was in disarray, came over to support Qian Xiao, and said worriedly: "It's okay!"
He wasn't injured because Qian Xiao pushed him away in time, otherwise Qian Xiao wouldn't have hit his forehead like that.
Qian Xiao shook his head to indicate that he was fine, grabbed Yi Fei's arm and tried to pull out the silver spear in the giant wolf's eyes, but tried to use force several times but there was no response, and there was no doubt that it was stuck.
Never mind.
Letting go of his hand, Humility gave up.
He looked at Yi Fei and begged, "Yi Fei, can you go and get me some gauze?"
There is nothing irresistible, and Qian Xiao does not want to expose his karma.
Not far away, the adjutant was treating the injured in an orderly manner with a few people, and he didn't know when it would be his turn, knowing that there were dozens of injuries in his eyes.
"Okay, then you sit down first. ”
Yi Fei agreed, carefully helped Qian Xiao to sit down, and then looked at the rest of the team: "Do you have anything to do?"
The eight people looked at each other, and Li Kui, who had some abrasions on his body, shook his head, "No need captain, we didn't get hurt much." ”
Mainly because Yi Fei and Qian Xiao were at the forefront, coupled with the orderly cooperation, the eight of them were only afraid of some abrasions, and there were almost no real injuries.
Yi Fei stopped talking, went over to the adjutant and got some gauze and asked for a little medicine and wine.
Qian Xiao watched Yi Fei go away, covering his mouth and swallowing something, and when he put his hand down, he only saw a trace of blood remaining at the corner of his mouth.
When he directly confronted the giant wolf, Qian Xiao was actually hit by the giant wolf, and Yi Fei didn't notice it. Thinking about it now, it makes you wonder if it wasn't a wolf, but a high-speed train.
Qian Xiao felt like his liver and stomach had been cracked, and one of his ribs had been broken.
But it's not a big deal, as long as there is karma, it can be fully recovered in a few days. It's just that it may be weak for a few days.
This is also the reason why Qian Xiao didn't say it, if you say that people ask you to cultivate for a few months, then you have to do it.
Can you say no?
How do you explain the rejection?
So there is no solution
Untied the kettle at his waist, took a sip, washed the blood off his mouth and did want to replenish the water, and then poured it down from his head, washing away the blood on his forehead and face.
There was no more blood on the forehead, and the spiritual power sealed the blood vessels there, and after washing it out, only a white-red wound remained.
"What are you doing?"
Frowning, Yi Fei, who came back with gauze and medicinal wine, saw the wet Qianxiao, as well as the bloodless red wound, he was inexplicably a little angry, and said: "Qianxiao, do you really think that you can mess around if you are a child! Don't you know that it is easy to be infected......
"It's okay, I know. ”
With a big grin, he dodged the gauze and medicinal wine from Yi Fei's hand, and bandaged it a little awkwardly.
If it weren't for the fact that there were so many people here, he would have started his karmic fire a long time ago, and such an injury would have been cured in less than ten minutes.
Maybe it hurt the bones, and it hurt a lot when he bandaged it, and there was a groove on his forehead.
......
A few hours later, after the basic treatment was completed, the adjutant who had counted the number of people pushed open Wu Jue's tent, looked at Wu Jue who was bandaging himself, gritted his teeth and said:
"General, after the count, there were no casualties among the peasants, thirty soldiers were slightly wounded, five were seriously wounded, and ...... One hundred and ten, and two hundred and seven remaining. ”
There were more than 300 people before, but now more than 200 people, and more than 100 people died.
But......
Hehe, only three wolf corpses were left.
Is the wolf pack too strong, or are the recruits too weak?
Hearing this number, Wu Jue's bandaged hand paused, then continued to tie it, and then said calmly as if nothing had happened: "I know, bury them well, you can't let them be in the wilderness, and then ...... You go and record the situation and send it to the front with a 'letter', and I ...... After sending these good men to the battlefield, they will take the blame and resign...... So be it!"
The adjutant couldn't cry and choked up: "General, or we ......"
"Obedience to the bitterness of life. ”
Wu Jue suddenly roared, staring at the adjutant, his blood-colored eyes full of endless sadness and self-blame:
"I don't want to say it a second time, obey orders, adjutant!"
The first "obey the order" The adjutant did not move, he wanted to help Wu Jue bandage, and the second "obey the order", the adjutant ran out with a pen and a book in tears.
Half an hour later, a black pigeon flew up and left the barracks.
......
"More than 100 people died, what will happen to us in the future?"
I couldn't hear any sadness, but my arm was mechanically stirring the firewood in front of me, and several ordinary people in the team were confused.
A third of the people died before they reached the battlefield, and for these honest men, they had no intention of slashing their heads, they were scared of the future, terrified.
"I don't know, anyway, if you don't die, you earned it. Li Kui was safe, took the head of the nest and burned it in the fire, then picked it up and ate it, not caring about the dust on it.
"Hehe, I want to open up, countless people die every day in this world. ”
Zhang Miaoyang's tone was relaxed, stretching out his hands to bake the fire.
Qian Xiao glared at him maliciously, this guy had been hiding behind when he attacked before.
“......”
Ruan Hong was silent, squinting and drowsy.
"We are soldiers, it is our duty to obey orders, this can only be regarded as an accident, we are going to go to the battlefield anyway, so we are not allowed to be afraid, we all cheer me up......"
As the captain, Yi Fei focused on education, trying to save the emotions of several people, but seeing the performance of Ruan Hong and several people, he suddenly wanted to beat people.
Who are these TMDs?
The night shrouded the earth, the camp was sparsely lit with a few bonfires, and the darkness behind him was bottomless, making people wonder if there were ghosts hidden inside!
Compared to humility, they were still in the mood to talk here, and the rest of the place was silent, like a dead eye, and despair was clearly written on everyone's face.
......
That's it for tonight.
Wu Jue didn't come out to comfort anyone, and they didn't move the three abyss wolf corpses during the day—even if everyone wanted to break the wolves to pieces—they were afraid that the wolves would come back.
Beings with sapient beings will have some empathy for the corpses of their companions, especially those who live in groups.
Early the next morning, the light had just appeared, and Wu Jue's rough voice sounded outside:
"Everyone get up for me, march the whole army, I must reach the Yuanshan Fortress by tonight, do you hear!"
Everyone: "......"
Reluctantly left the tent, slept late last night, and gathered with a dark circle under his eyes.
The farmer in the back quickly sorted out the horses.
Looking at the uneven team, at least there was only one person left, Wu Jue's eyes showed grief again, but he was quickly suppressed by him.
Observing the remaining soldiers, after yesterday's battle, the gap has been revealed, which can be divided into three levels in total.
The worst: I haven't recovered from the loss and dazedness, and the seeds of fear have been planted in my heart, these people are the most numerous, and the most useless, and there is no accident on the battlefield The fate of absolute cannon fodder.
Better: After the battle, the eyes are more determined, and there is an indomitable momentum. Second, even if there are no big achievements in these futures, they will not be very bad, unless there is an accident.
The best: It seems that nothing has happened to anything, such as Qian Xiao Yifei and a few of them, at least, there are no accidents, these people will definitely have no low achievements in the future.
This is Wu Jue's opinion.
It took half an hour to sort out the team, and this group of 'remnants of the defeated army' continued the unfinished journey, and the ethereal future is even more ethereal now, and they never know how far they can go.
Like those 100 people, they would never have imagined that they would die on the road.
Walking to the site of yesterday's battle, there was still dried blood, broken spears, broken iron armor, and a little black hair on the ground.
There was a bleak moment, the three wolf corpses were gone, and the footprints left on the ground were dragged back by the wolves at night.
Wu Jue made a good decision, but he was not happy.
Fearing the enemy's retribution or something, he didn't dare to touch the corpse of a fierce beast that harmed his companions, which was more cruel to him than death.
The rest of the road was cautious and fast, and the army passed through the black forests, but fortunately nothing suddenly ran out.
The gray fog in the sky slowly thinned out, and although it was still there, there was still a hint of life in the world.
Then finally at ten minutes of sunset, the army reached its first destination, the fortress of Yuanshan.
It is like a shot of a fierce beast crawling on the earth, and the black castle towers thousands of meters high are like gold and iron, and the two peaks have been transformed into towers......
A black cloud envelops it, and you can't even see how long it is, and the whole world seems to be split in half by it.
Everyone was stunned, including Yi Fei, including Qian Xiao. Tianque is sacred, and without the shock of this fortress, it cannot give this fortress the shock to people.
This is the glory that can only be built by a dynasty!
The ancient atmosphere permeated the top, like a wilderness.
The army marched down to the bottom, as small as dust.
The hundred-meter-high gate you don't even dare to look up.
I can't imagine what a powerful army it would take to break through such a fortress, and the second thought when Qian Xiao looked at it was powerless.
The third thought is that this is definitely not something that can be built by manpower.
Manpower is out of reach.
It feels like there's no way to take it here.
This is the guarantee of the peace of mind of the Tianwu Dynasty.
According to what Wu Jue said, they will rest here for a few days, and then mix into a large army, and then go to a marginal place to fight together, and they are not qualified to participate in the main battlefield.
But even so, Wu Jue said that it was at least a battlefield of tens of thousands of people, and it was still in a remote place.
The city gate is always open with a small slit to facilitate the travel of military horses. It's a small slit, but it can also allow five horses to pass side by side.
