Chapter 385 Cattle and Sheep Banquet
Tumusuo was pointing in the direction where Su Zhizhi was.
But Su Zhizhi's figure was not obvious among the soldiers, nor were Wu Yingniang and others.
The only thing that catches the eye and makes people notice at a glance is his physique, which is several times stronger than that of an ordinary person.
The burly Kong Wu was wielding a big hammer in his right hand.
The big iron hammer was made by Wu Ya himself. It weighed hundreds of pounds and had great power and destructive power.
The sound of the war drums was like rumbling thunder, and when his hammer fell to the ground, the sound traveled farther than the sound of the war drums.
A fierce Hu general rushed up to Kong Wu and swung his mace at him.
The mace and the sledgehammer collided, sending sparks flying.
The Hu man's arm became numb instantly, his knuckles were torn apart, and his mace was deformed by the hammer.
Before he could react, Kong Wu took advantage of the situation and struck him with another hammer, smashing him into a pool of flesh...
When Kong Wu went to the battlefield in Chang'an before, he was also scared and frightened when he hit someone.
The members of the surprise attack team fought and killed while comforting Kong Wu, so Kong Wu was able to continue fighting.
After the Battle of Chang'an, Kong Wu, who hadn't smashed people into pulp for a long time, felt a little uncomfortable when he smashed people again. He cried out in a bit of grievance and fear:
“Ah, ah!”
Old Man Qin was throwing darts from behind his massive body:
"Be good, it's okay, it's okay, Grandpa is here. Grandpa will help you watch the back, just beat the people in front of you flat, otherwise we will be the ones to die!"
Kong Wu then sniffed and continued to hammer the man.
Dozens of enemy soldiers surrounded him from all directions and tried to stab Kong Wu at the same time.
Kong Wu held the hammer handle with both hands and swung it hard, and the big hammer drew a semicircle in the air.
As soon as the dozens of enemy soldiers got close, they were hit by the hammers, and their bodies flew out like kites with broken strings, crashing into everything.
Old Xu, who was using his internal energy to attack people not far away, saw this and found that those who were hit by Kong Wu's hammer flew farther than those who were hit by him using his internal energy.
Old Xu sighed repeatedly, it turned out that young people are really capable of exerting strength:
"Tsk tsk tsk, one step to hit one person, one hundred steps to hit a city!"
Hulong and Tumuso saw this scene from a distance and their faces turned pale.
Tumusuo advised:
"Khan, our men have been fighting hard for several days and are almost exhausted. It would be better to withdraw first."
"Khan, it's not too late to attack after we've rested. It's better than being annihilated here!"
"Khan, Khan!"
Tumuso advised several times.
Helian Wuqin also came over in person and urged Hulong to withdraw his troops.
Hu Long's face was stiff, and he was still staring at the fighting scene and the burly figure in the distance.
He clenched the reins tightly in his hands, his Adam's apple rolled repeatedly, and finally uttered a word:
"withdraw!"
The order to retreat was given.
The Hu soldiers retreated as if they had been pardoned.
The army of Da Qi was chasing after them.
The Hu people were forced to withdraw from the northern border, thinking that the Great Qi would not pursue them anymore.
Because they had withdrawn from the northern border before, both sides had a truce. The previous Emperor Dayu had never sent so many troops to the northwest, enough to break through the border of Hunxie Kingdom in a big way.
But this time——
The cavalry of Da Qi crossed the border and stepped into the territory of Hunxie.
The troops of Da Qi galloped for dozens of miles and finally set up camp before sunset.
When the Hu people saw the Qi army setting foot on their grasslands for the first time, although they felt angry and humiliated, they could only flee.
The Hu people set up camp a hundred miles away from the Great Qi, and the two armies faced each other from a distance.
Both sides needed to rest and recuperate, so there was a brief period of peace for a few days.
There are some cattle and sheep roaming around the border of Hunxie Country.
The army of Da Qi, especially the Black Mountain Army, rudely captured the cattle and sheep and took them back to the military camp.
Skin it, drain the blood, chop it into small pieces, and throw it into the boiling pot on the fire.
That night, the soldiers all ate hot beef and mutton stew.
The hot steam of the broth mixed with its aroma hit Qin Xiao's face, and he smacked his lips while drinking it.
“Hey, that’s the taste.”
“Only beef and mutton from the northwest can have this delicious taste.”
Old Xu shook his head seriously:
"The enemy's cattle and sheep taste better."
The whole body of cattle and sheep is full of treasures. No part of them was wasted and they were eaten up.
There were also a dozen or so Kuzi people in the army.
After shoveling the snow, they volunteered to join the army and fight the Hu people together.
Because they also knew that only when the Hu people left could they live well.
When the Kuzi people were chewing beef and mutton, they looked as if they wanted to smash the bones into pieces and swallow them.
The damn Hu people had killed all their cattle and sheep and robbed all their food. Now it was their turn to eat the Hu people's cattle and sheep.
It’s so satisfying to eat!
While the army was feasting, some wounded soldiers unfortunately could not enjoy the feast of cattle and mutton due to their injuries.
For example, Xue Yucheng and Xue Che.
For example, Wei Dashuan.
Wei Dashuan was lying in a tent full of wounded soldiers. He was also injured.
His injury is neither light nor serious.
When Xue Yucheng and his son were injured, Wei Dashuan swung his sword to kill the enemy.
When he swung the sword, he had the vigor of his youth, and people couldn't help but praise him as "his sword is still as sharp as ever".
But after exchanging a few moves with the Hu people, the Hu people stabbed him with their mace and broke his bones.
After all, I'm old and my bones are brittle.
So just as Xue Yucheng and his son were sent to the wounded camp, Wei Dashuan was also sent in.
After Wei Dashuan was sent into the tent, he happened to lie next to Xue Yucheng.
Doctor Yu and others were busy treating the wounded.
Wei Dashuan heard Doctor Yu say to Xue Yucheng and his son:
"Although the injury is serious, fortunately we arrived in time, so it's not a big problem. As long as the bleeding is stopped first..."
Wei Dashuan didn't hear the following string of words about medicine, but he heard the key words:
Fortunately, we arrived in time.
Arrived just in time.
Wei Dashuan's old face was wrinkled with smiles, and there was a gleam in his eyes.
Fortunately, I wasn’t late this time.
His heart, which had been hanging for a long time, finally settled down at this moment.
He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up, it was already dark.
His broken bones also seemed to be bandaged.
The sounds of people eating and drinking could be heard outside.
Qin Xiao came in with a bowl of beef soup and sat next to Wei Dashuan:
"Drink it. Only after eating and drinking enough can you have the strength to recover."
Wei Dashuan didn't act pretentiously. He reached out to take the bowl of soup and drank it while half lying down.
Qin Xiao scolded Wei Dashuan:
"We are all old now. No matter how unwilling we are to admit our age, we must be sensible. How can we continue to act recklessly like we did when we were young? Don't you think about it? Your Wei Qi is still waiting for you in Black Bandit Mountain with his great-grandson in his arms. Don't you want to go back and see your great-grandson?"
Wei Dashuan gulped down the beef soup and sighed with satisfaction:
"Of course I want to go back. By the time I get back, the child should be able to speak. But during the day on the battlefield, the only thing on my mind is Lao Xue.
"At this age, I'm not afraid of going down there."
"But at the time, I was just thinking about whether I would be too embarrassed to see Lao Xue after I went there."
The clear moonlight shines into the tent through the gap in the door curtain.
Wei Dashuan's tone was long and relieved:
"Now I can face Lao Xue. Even if I really go down, I don't have anything to worry about..."
Qin Xiao felt emotional when he heard this, but he said:
"Yucheng and Ache haven't woken up yet. Wait until they wake up before you express your feelings."
Wei Dashuan: "How are they? I'll go check it out."
Qin Xiao: "You don't need to go and see, there are people watching. Just eat another bowl of noodle soup."
In another tent.
"Mom, how is Ache?" Su Zhizhi poked her head in from outside the tent.
Inside the tent, Wu Yingniang was taking care of Xue Che.
Xue Yucheng was in the commander-in-chief's tent, watched by Yun Jin and Deputy General Zhang.
Xue Che was in Doctor Yu's tent.
Doctor Yu examined him thoroughly. Several of the wounds on his body were deep, but none of them hit his vital parts.
It's just the inflammation of the wound that caused the fever. I need to keep a close eye on him tonight.
Doctor Yu and Hua Erniang were also tired after a day of work, so they went out to eat and rest, and Wu Yingniang took over.
Wu Yingniang changed the towel on Xue Che's head and gave him some water.
The child also stayed with her for a few years when he was young, and they had a deep relationship.
She felt distressed seeing Xue Che like this.
"Mom, go eat first. I'll look after Che."
Su Zhizhi walked in, her figure illuminated by the oil lamp.
Her left arm was tightly bandaged.
She had a cut on her arm, but it wasn't a serious injury.
Wu Yingniang frowned:
"Zhizhi, why are you up again? Didn't I tell you to rest and recuperate?"
"You don't take your injury seriously?"
