Chapter 451 Countless Ordinary "Chess Pieces"
Soon, at the south city wall, Wei Changtian saw Liang Qin who was very busy.
Like any other soldier, she was only wearing ordinary green armor, her long hair was tied up behind her head, and her armor scales were stained with blood.
If Liang Qin's figure wasn't obviously slimmer than the average soldier, it would be difficult to tell whether they were a man or a woman from a distance.
In addition, she did not have the temper of a spoiled young lady. She had always been busy with ordinary soldiers and did not mind doing dirty work such as moving stones and transferring the wounded. This made her feel completely at home in such an environment.
Oh my goodness, Mulan from another world? "Let me do it."
Looking at the dirty Liang Qin in front of him, Wei Changtian took over the wounded man she was supporting and said casually: "Uncle Liang said that you must have secretly gone into battle to kill the enemy just now. It seems that your father still understands you."
"How are you? Are you not hurt?"
“.”
There were all kinds of busy and noisy sounds around. Liang Qin looked at Wei Changtian who suddenly appeared, her face full of uncontrollable surprise.
She hurriedly walked with Wei Changtian to the military camp with the wounded, and asked in a low voice: "I'm fine. Brother Changtian, why are you here?"
"Come and see you."
Wei Changtian shook his head helplessly: "I'm afraid you're being reckless. If something goes wrong, it will be hard to explain to your father."
"By the way, have you always been wearing the golden robe I gave you before?"
"some."
Liang Qin's cheeks flushed slightly, and her voice was a little low: "Brother Changtian, I'd better return the cassock to you."
"Just now I heard that you also went into battle to kill the enemy, you..."
"I don't need it."
Waving his hand, Wei Changtian interrupted with a smile: "I have other life-saving treasures, as long as nothing happens to you."
"oh"
The blush on her face became even more intense. Liang Qin lowered her head and stopped talking, as if she had instantly transformed from a "female general" into a "young wife".
Wei Changtian was not surprised by her behavior, but the soldier who was supported by two men on the left and right was not in good condition.
This man had a knife wound on his abdomen. Although the bleeding had stopped temporarily, the injury was serious and he had been on the verge of coma.
But now, after hearing the "ambiguous" communication between Liang Qin and Wei Changtian, his originally pale face turned red, and his lips trembled, as if his injuries had suddenly worsened.
"Um?"
Wei Changtian frowned when he noticed something was wrong, and asked Xiang Junhan in a deep voice: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Is your wound hurting?"
"I"
The soldier opened his mouth with difficulty, his voice was extremely weak.
"Master Wei, I haven't married yet."
"Not married?"
Wei Changtian was stunned: "So?"
"So, that's why."
The soldier looked at Wei Changtian helplessly, with a painful expression: "So, can you please stop being so affectionate in front of me, my little one? It makes me feel uncomfortable."
“.”
After a brief moment of daze, Wei Changtian couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Hahaha! Okay, let's not talk anymore!"
"Thank you, Master"
The soldier let out a long sigh, closed his eyes as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and began to regulate his qi and blood.
At this moment, Liang Qin just wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
She stared at Wei Changtian with wide eyes, wanting to say something, but was unable to do so because of the "promise" he had just made.
Seeing her like this, Wei Changtian smiled and made a gesture to keep quiet, then continued walking forward at a moderate pace.
“Crash!”
Amid the sound of armor and scales rubbing against each other, the Shu troops marched back and forth in a hurry.
At this time, there was less than an hour left before the next attack by the imperial army. The first wave of soldiers defending the city were gradually withdrawing from the city wall, and were being replaced by a new batch of soldiers.
Half of the Shu army today are new recruits who have been in the army for less than half a year. This is actually their first time on the battlefield.
It can be seen that many people are very nervous. Some even buttoned the copper buckles of their armor in the wrong place, and sometimes they would be scolded by their sergeants.
To be honest, no matter how rigorous the training of new recruits is, their combat effectiveness cannot be compared with that of veteran soldiers.
This means that they are more likely to die on the battlefield than veterans.
This is also the reason why the Shu army, although being the more advantageous defending party, suffered slightly more casualties than the imperial army.
You have to know that this gap in personal battlefield experience is difficult to make up from a macro-strategic level.
Alas. Looking at those faces full of tension hidden under the brims of the hats, Wei Changtian sighed softly, feeling a little helpless.
There are many of them, and they may not even be able to hold their weapons properly. "Plop!"
As luck would have it, as if to prove Wei Changtian's guess was correct, a soldier next to him suddenly got distracted and accidentally fell in front of him.
The man hurriedly got up from the ground in a panic, and his sergeant immediately ran over from the front of the team with a stern face, ready to curse him.
But the moment he saw Wei Changtian, his expression suddenly changed from anger to shame.
"Master Wei!"
Standing up straight, the sergeant immediately reflected on himself: "It's all my fault for not training hard enough. I made a fool of myself."
"No problem."
Waving his hand, Wei Changtian turned his head to look at the soldier who had been standing there with his head down since he made a fool of himself.
"What's your name?"
"ah?"
The soldier obviously didn't react and looked up with a confused look on his face.
"you!"
Seeing this, the sergeant was even more furious and kicked him on the butt: "Speak! Master Wei asked what your name is!"
"Oh, the little guy's name is Erzhu."
The soldier finally reacted and blushed as he quickly replied, "Li Erzhu"
Li Erzhu? Wei Changtian was slightly stunned when he heard such a rustic name.
But what surprised him even more was the appearance of this soldier.
It's a bit immature indeed.
Although he has not reached the level of a "boy soldier", he is estimated to be no more than fourteen or fifteen years old.
"How old are you?"
After hesitating for a while, Wei Changtian couldn't help but ask, "Have you tied your hair?"
"Hair tied?"
Li Erzhu obviously didn't understand the meaning of the word, and he didn't dare to ask Wei Changtian directly, so he had to secretly glance at his sergeant.
Fortunately, the latter reacted quickly. He first said to Wei Changtian, "Farmers don't have much knowledge, I hope you won't blame me," and then immediately lowered his voice to explain, "The young master is asking if you are fifteen years old!"
"Ah, sir, I am not even fifteen yet."
The soldier finally understood and said hurriedly, "He just turned fourteen in August."
Fourteen years old.
At this age in my previous life, I should have still been in junior high school.
After taking a deep look at Li Erzhu, Wei Changtian felt quite complicated at the moment.
Although both men and women in this world are more "precocious" than in their previous lives, he still thinks it is a bit sad to go to the battlefield at the age of fourteen.
I don't know how many people like Li Erzhu there are in the entire Shu army. "Okay, nothing else, you guys go quickly."
Patting Li Erzhu on the shoulder, Wei Changtian said nothing more.
"Yes! Sir!"
Upon seeing this, the sergeant hurriedly pulled Li Erzhu and saluted him, then wanted to continue to run to the city wall to change guard.
However, just when Li Erzhu turned around and was about to return to the team, he suddenly heard another sentence behind him.
"Li Erzhu, I believe you can survive."
