Chapter 147 She is willing to serve her
"Brothers, kill her to avenge our dead brothers!"
Bai Li was surrounded by a dense rain of arrows, and the Simon cavalry vented all their hatred on Bai Li.
Arrows rained down, and when everyone thought she had been shot into a hedgehog, they looked up and saw that the place where she had just stood was empty.
"Where are the people?"
The cavalrymen screamed as if they had seen a ghost, but before they could react, they felt a chill on their necks. Then they saw themselves suddenly become taller, and then they saw their headless body riding a horse and running more than ten feet away before falling to the ground, and then... everything went dark in front of them, and he could no longer see.
Bai Li spun with his sword, and the heads of more than a dozen cavalrymen in the inner circle were chopped off, but his body was still riding on the horse for a long time without falling.
The remaining people were horrified and turned their horses around to run away, screaming.
Unfortunately, they were blocked by a dozen headless cavalrymen's horses, and they were temporarily thrown into disarray.
Bai Li harvested their lives without any pressure. She hated these selfish and ostentatious soldiers and killed them without any mercy.
"Since we can't escape, let's fight her!"
A small leader was provoked and rushed towards Bai Li with a big knife in hand, shouting.
Bai Li kicked a cavalryman away and rushed towards him.
"ah!"
Unfortunately, the little leader was killed by a serious blow as soon as they met.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining few people all abandoned their horses and fled.
“Chirp!”
Bai Li fired all the crossbows in his hand, and twenty crossbow arrows in a row shot them into hedgehogs. The huge impact force sent them flying back several meters before they fell to the ground.
At this time, He Qiu Shui and his men dealt with the cavalry over there and rushed over.
"Marshal, are you okay?"
A delicate figure stood resolutely in the rain, the heavy rain washing away the blood on her body, and the rain made bloody trails under her feet...
"Marshal, are you injured?! Quick, call a military doctor!"
Bai Li wiped the rain off his face and said unhappily, "I'm fine. This blood is theirs."
Only then did He Qiu Shui see that the ground was littered with the bodies of people and horses.
Several horses with injured legs fell to the ground and neighed. The reins of more than a dozen horses nearby were tied to a big tree. The horses looked at Bai Li in fear, kicking their feet nervously but not daring to break free from the ropes.
"Marshal, you killed over a hundred cavalrymen by yourself!"
“What’s all the fuss about?
"Hurry up and clean up the battlefield. Take the injured horses back for treatment, and take the dead horses back for food."
"Also, touch their bodies and take away everything edible and useful!"
He Qiu Shui was stunned for a moment. He had been to the battlefield several times, but had never tried such an operation.
The main thing is that they always lose battles and don’t even have time to escape.
Even if we narrowly won one or two victories, we would still have to retreat in a hurry because we were afraid that a large enemy force would come after us.
"What are you still standing there for? Confiscate all the weapons and move these bodies to the mountain and bury them!"
"Marshal, why are you burying the bodies?"
He could understand collecting the spoils, but how tiring would it be to bury the bodies? And there were so many of them!
"Don't bury them? Wait for them to rot, stink, and breed bacteria and viruses!"
Bai Li really felt tired of the soldiers of the Great Zhou. Didn’t they have the habit of burying corpses when they fought in previous wars?
No need to worry about causing a plague!
"Oh, bury them! Tell someone to dig a big hole and bury them!"
He didn't understand what bacteria and viruses were, but he did understand what rotting and stinking were.
There used to be a lot of rats in his house, which would gnaw at his granary and his bedding.
Later, his father went up the mountain and found a poisonous herb. He mixed it with steamed buns and fed it to the mice. The next day, the mice were dead everywhere.
After a few days, the house was filled with the stench of dead rats. The family was so irritated that they didn't dare go home and hid at grandma's house for several days.
He was most impressed by the stench, and now he feels nauseous and wants to vomit when he thinks about it.
This place is less than half a mile away from the first line of fortification and less than two miles away from Yuanzhou City.
If the stench of so many corpses were to spread for ten miles.
By then, won’t they feel like they are filled with manure every day, with their bodies and mouths full of stench?
This won't do. Absolutely not.
So He Qiu Shui was more active than anyone else in moving the bodies.
"Captain, I found some jerky!"
"I also found some dried meat and a few taels of silver!"
"Captain, I found a handful of copper coins!"
When He Qiu Shui heard his men reporting their gains one by one, he was so shocked that his eyes widened in disbelief.
Can you make money by fighting a war?
How strange!
Bai Li nodded with satisfaction. He didn't expect that these Simon people were quite wealthy and could bring dried meat as rations.
The treatment of the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty was not even a little bit worse than theirs.
"You guys keep busy first, I'll go back to the city to find someone to help."
Bai Li sympathized with them for not being able to sleep most of the night after being drenched by the rain, so he turned back to the city to find someone to handle the aftermath.
"It's me, Bai Li. Open the city gate!"
Bai Li shouted at the city gate. Li Dazhuang and Wu Lanzhi on the city wall heard it and immediately rushed to the wall excitedly, waving their hands and shouting, "Marshal Bai, you are back?"
"Marshal Bai, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, open the door!"
Bai Li rode his horse so hard that his neck was sore before he finally looked forward to the city gate opening.
"drive!"
She squeezed her legs against the horse's belly and rushed forward.
Now that she had dealt with the attacking cavalry, she just wanted to have a good sleep to prepare for the upcoming battle.
"Marshal Bai, have those cavalry been driven away? Do you need reinforcements?"
"Marshal, let's go, we'll kill that bastard Simon without a single piece of armor left!"
"Lanzhi, you don't have to go, they are all dead!"
"What?!"
Two voices asked at the same time, their tone full of disbelief.
"General Li, send 500 men to help He Qiushui and the others bury the bodies. Wu Lanzhi, have someone bring two buckets of hot water so I can shower and change clothes!"
Bai Li gave two instructions in one breath and walked towards her accommodation without stopping.
Li Dazhuang and Wu Lanzhi looked at each other, and seeing that Bai Li didn't want to say a word, they felt curious and helpless.
"The Simon cavalry is fierce and powerful, but they were defeated by us..."
Li Dazhuang is most familiar with soldiers. He has dealt with the Simons countless times. The Simons are strong and fierce and cruel. Very few people can survive in their hands.
"Why don't you go and see for yourself and find out?"
Bai Li didn't want to pay attention to him after he finished speaking. He turned around and asked Wu Lanzhi, "Did you ask someone to boil some water?"
After being caught in the rain all night, her wet clothes stuck to her body, making her feel very uncomfortable.
All she wanted now was to take a hot bath quickly, nothing else mattered.
Li Dazhuang reacted quickly and sent someone there, while Wu Lanzhi went to the kitchen herself to boil water for Bai Li.
Don’t bother the cook so late at night. It doesn’t matter who does it.
Bai Li won another great victory, and she was willing to serve and take care of her as a slave.
