"The blood of those big men tastes purely of rust, while the blood of women, I think, has a hint of perfume."

“However, nowadays, there are almost no women on the border who use cosmetics anymore. What’s left are all dark-skinned and thin, and they exude a rotten smell,” one of his men said calmly.

Tu Shadong was somewhat stunned, and he muttered to himself:

"I suppose it's because I'm always thinking about the war and my mind is unsettled that... this is why."

"Let's go, let's get back to the barracks soon."

"drive!"

The group spurred their horses and galloped across the vast grassland, only to find themselves crossing a grassy slope.

"Whoa!"

The group stopped abruptly and quickly pulled on the reins to bring the horses to a halt.

Tu Shadong took a deep breath, a look of horror appearing in his eyes. Behind the earthen slope lay two corpses.

To be precise, it was a human corpse and a horse corpse.

This is a Northern Hu soldier.

His head and the horse's head were joined together, and the reason for this strange phenomenon was that there was an arrow between the human head and the horse's head.

Perhaps because he was lying prone on his horse, the arrow entered through the back of his head, and with its remaining force, it also entered the back of the horse's head.

Thus, both the man and his horse were shot dead at the same time.

"This...this arrow has such force! This arrow...this is bad!"

"The Prince of Zhenbei has already mobilized his troops!! Quick! Go back immediately!"

Tu Shadong suddenly realized what was happening and hurriedly led his men towards the barracks.

But as the horses ran faster and faster, several corpses appeared along the way!

They were all shot dead while trying to escape!

Tu Shadong felt a chill run through him, his eyelids twitched, and his back was covered in cold sweat.

Right now, he only has one thought in his mind.

"Where has the Prince of Zhenbei advanced to?"
