Chapter 49 Corpses Exposed in the Wilderness

Soon, Lü Bu arrived at a villager's house, and the source of the crying was under the body of a woman.

Lu Bu picked up the swaddled baby and glanced at her; it turned out to be a baby girl.

The female corpse must be the baby girl's mother. Lu Bu sighed slightly, then carried the baby girl outside.

Just as Lü Bu arrived at his horse and was about to mount it, he suddenly saw a troop of soldiers rapidly approaching from outside the village.

At this moment, the extremely weak Lü Bu suddenly became serious. He quickly tore off a strip of cloth, tied the baby's swaddling clothes to his chest, and prepared to get off his horse and leave.

Only after Lü Bu mounted his horse did he notice the attire of the troop.

Upon realizing it was the Han army, Lü Bu breathed a sigh of relief, dismounted, and waited for their arrival.

The leader of this Han army was about the same age as Lü Bu, and when he arrived in the village and saw the scene, he was also furious.

"Those damned Huns!"

After the Han army leader cursed angrily, he noticed Lü Bu standing not far away, as well as the corpses and warhorses of the Xiongnu people around him. He then hurriedly led his men over.

"Did you kill all these Xiongnu people?"

The officer looked at Lü Bu, who was dressed in rags and covered in blood, with a shocked expression.

Lu Bu nodded without speaking. It wasn't that he was aloof, but rather that he felt he no longer had the strength to speak.

"Great! This brother is a true hero... Hey? Brother, what's wrong?"

The Han army leader, who was filled with righteous indignation, suddenly noticed Lü Bu falling to the ground. He rushed forward to help him up, only to find that Lü Bu had already closed his eyes and had fainted.

"Someone come here!"

With a loud shout, several Han soldiers ran over.

The Han army leader said urgently, "You, quickly take him to the general for treatment, please be sure to save his life."

"promise!"

After watching his men carry Lü Bu away, the Han army leader looked around, his face extremely gloomy.

A soldier stepped forward and asked, "What should we do with these Hun corpses?"

"Take their heads back; these are the fruits of that brother's war! They can't be forgotten. As for their bodies..."

"Throw it by the roadside and leave it to rot in the wilderness, to feed the wild dogs!"
