Chapter 4 It turns out that TV dramas are all lies
Chu Feng is not as powerful as Zhao Yun, but fortunately he will use the darkness and the cover of luggage to hide us from the Turkic cavalry, and he will not fight with others unless it is absolutely necessary.
Several times, the Turkic cavalry ran up and down within a short distance from us, which made me weak in fright, but in the end they were all stabbed down by the defenders without exception.At first I thought I was doomed this time, but after constant false alarms, I, an ancient military layman, slowly saw some tricks.
Chu Feng was undoubtedly wise, because the cavalry of the Chen army were all fighting the main force of the Turks in the distance, and there were almost no horses in the camp, so even in the dark, it was easy to distinguish the enemy from us - all those on horseback were enemies.Fortunately, Chu Feng didn't follow my layman's advice, otherwise not only the Turkic horses might not listen to his command, I might fall off the horse if I don't know how to ride, and even my own people who don't distinguish between the enemy and the enemy may be stabbed. We are heartbroken.
He also understands his responsibilities very well. Although he complained to others before that his adoptive father would not allow him to perform meritorious service, he always put my safety first at this time, and just took me to hide everywhere instead of greedy. Successfully killed the enemy.
And I also found that although the cavalry who broke in was quite scary, they were actually not many, at least not more than the defenders. When everyone's sight was not good, the cavalry did not take advantage of it, and it was easy to hide behind obstacles. Although the Turks tried their best to ignite several flames to burn the camp, they were quickly extinguished.
Although these Dachen soldiers are sloppy and dressed in rags, let alone they are really capable of fighting. Several soldiers who walked closer to me once told me that they even transported luggage The troops are all selected from the elite of the frontier army, it seems that it is really not bragging.
Slowly the chaos in the camp subsided, the defenders formed one small square formation after another, shouting slogans I didn’t understand to communicate with each other, Chu Feng dragged me into a larger square formation, The bearded garrison commander whose name I still don't know is also there, which reassures me a lot.
At the beginning, there were Turkic cavalry coming from the main battlefield one after another trying to rob the camp, but they gradually disappeared. Chu Feng said that it was because the Turkic cavalry could no longer spare any more troops.
After fighting all night, the sound of fighting in the distance finally calmed down slowly.When the sky was getting dark, the home team, holding a banner with the word Xie, drove back rumblingly.
It seems that this time there is no need to die, I let out a long sigh of relief.
It wasn't until the next day that I recovered from the panic of "this world is not safe at all". When I saw the new face who came to bring me food, I finally remembered that I hadn't seen Chu Nan for a day.
Chu Nan is Chu Feng's cousin, and also the guy who has been taking care of me these days.These cousins don't look much alike. I guess their father must have married two wives who are as different as heaven and earth. That's why the genes of the two brothers are so different.
Chu Feng was well-proportioned, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looked a little handsome, while Chu Nan was short and stocky, with a loyal appearance, thick hands and big feet, a standard appearance of a country boy.Moreover, Chu Feng was favored by the general Xie Jin because of his talent, intelligence, outstanding performance and ability to read and write, but Chu Nan was mediocre, and he was not good at fighting. The chief cook, who cooks for the generals, is also in charge of my meals.
In other words, my food standard is actually the same as that of the generals. That is to say, the dignified generals who commanded tens of thousands of people in ancient times also ate such miscellaneous grains and jerky when they went out to fight... I will never again I am envious of those iron-blooded pride who fought on the battlefield, this is cheating.
I found Chu Feng and asked him, "Where's your cousin, why haven't I seen him all day?"
Chu Feng replied sternly: "He was wounded by an arrow and is in the wounded barracks."
I breathed a sigh of relief, as long as I didn't die: "I'll go and see him."
Chu Feng frowned, looking a little surprised: "...why?"
"Isn't it possible?" His astonishment made me very surprised. Is there anything strange about this move? It shouldn't conflict with the practices and styles of the ancients, right?Anyway, Chu Nan has taken care of me for so long, he was injured and I don't say anything else, it should always be a visit, right?
Chu Feng lowered his head and did not look at me: "The holy envoy is a noble person. I am afraid that the wounded soldiers will run into the holy envoy. Please think twice."
Hearing what he said, the goodwill I had because of him protecting me yesterday disappeared immediately. Chu Feng is like this, which made me seriously suspect that his godfather, who basically doesn't show his face, is actually specially sent him to put me under house arrest. Because what this person is best at is the two prohibitions: "This is not allowed, and that is not allowed."
"I've thought twice, I'm just going to see what's wrong with the wounded, take me there." I think I need to be tougher, and I can't obediently obey the arrangements of the captain of the guard, otherwise, according to this guy's logic, I can't wait to make an iron box, put me in it, hang twelve copper locks on it, and bury me in a deep basement to be safe.
Chu Feng had no choice but to take me there.
From the outside, the rows of battalions of wounded soldiers are no different from ordinary tents, except that most of them have a fire at the door, and there is a smelly medicinal soup. It was not until I entered one of the tents that I understood why Chu Feng said, " I am afraid that the wounded soldiers will charge against me."
Of course, the wounded soldiers themselves would not be delirious, jump up and beat me up or something, but their appearance was so far from what I had imagined, and it really shocked me at first.
I thought that wounded soldiers were at best wrapped in bandages, with some blood oozing out of the bandages—isn’t that how it’s shown in TV dramas, but in fact, what I saw in front of me was this scene: the whole airtight tent was covered with There was a pungent smell of blood and medicine, some tattered straw mats were spread on the ground, and the wounded soldiers were resting on them crowded together. Most of them were not bandaged, but black rags were pasted on the exposed wounds. The ointment was bandaged individually, and the bandages were also dirty and black, soaked in blackened blood. If it wasn't for the cold weather on the grassland, and there were hardly any flies, I'm afraid I would have seen some more creepy scenes .
I found Chu Nan, he was shot by an arrow in the shoulder, and now the arrow has come out, the wound does not look big, but it may be deep.His face was pale, and he wanted to sit up and talk to me drowsily, I quickly pressed him down, thinking that I couldn't help at all--I'm not the protagonist who brings his own encyclopedia, what I learned It is impossible for his major to be of any use in ancient times, and he does not know any knowledge of first aid and nursing, nor does he know how to make antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs.
Minor injuries are already so scary, if you see serious injuries, you can't imagine.
Wait...why didn't I see anyone who was more seriously injured?
I stopped Chu Feng and asked him: "Where are those seriously injured people, why didn't I see them?"
Chu Feng hesitated to speak, but in the end he still lowered his head and did not look at me: "The envoy should stop asking."
I……
I remembered one more thing.
After the battle, before they started cleaning the battlefield, Chu Feng took me elsewhere, and I didn't ask why.It's only now that I realize what he meant by doing this-it's dawning, and if I face the bloody battlefield, I'll be terrified.
If it were a girl, she might be so scared that she would get sick and die. Although I am not a girl, I dare say that I am not as good as a girl in their eyes because of my delicate skin and tender flesh.
Although I want to pat my chest and say it very manly, I have played n horror and bloody game masterpieces, and I am a well-informed modern person.But in fact, I have lived so long that I have never seen a real corpse in Dalian. Even seeing photos of the scene of a heavy-flavored tragic car accident can make me so sick that I can’t eat. It's not just that I can't eat anymore... In that case, I should also thank this guy for his carefulness.
I heard that this time they completely wiped out the main force of a certain Turkic unit, and of course their own damage was not small. The troops stayed on the grassland for a few days, and then because the weather started to turn cold, Turkic ministries were in civil strife, etc. The reason, in short, we want the class teacher to return to court.
The so-called returning to the dynasty is actually returning to a border city called Xingtingfu. Although I have almost despaired of ancient life, I can go from the uninhabited grassland to the at least inhabited city, from the complete ancient wilderness to the relative A less wild world is always something to look forward to.
After walking for many days, the first thing that catches my eyes is the Great Wall - well maybe not the Great Wall, but it looks like it anyway.I saw the tall city gate building and the city wall that can't be seen from left to right. The big characters on the city gate building have peeled off so that they can't be seen clearly, and the wall bricks are also a little dilapidated. The gaps are full of tenacious weeds. But if you look closely, it is quite powerful and domineering.
I have seen city walls and towers buried in modern high-rise buildings before, and I feel that they don’t look tall at all. Now it seems that if this thing is placed in ancient times, it will definitely be an insurmountable super fortification. .
After entering the city gate, there is nothing interesting inside. Xingting Mansion belongs to the kind of place that used to be prosperous, then fell into disrepair, and is now just beginning to be rebuilt. From some relatively solid and majestic ancient stone buildings, you can still see the glory of the past. , but there are more simple shack-like houses on the side of the street, which are leaky and leaky at first sight.
When the army entered the city, there was no welcome, only silent onlookers. Most of the people here had numb expressions, ragged clothes, and the same color as the dust. Compared with the army that I despised as "savages" before, they looked much more energetic. .
