Chapter 92: Risking one's life to suck blood to save the second brother
The red sun sets in the west, the sky and earth melt into gold, the river is like a mirror, winding across the sky, the weary birds know to return, and the distant mountains send you drunkenness.
On the Jiuyuan Ancient Road, a Hun cavalry was wearily heading north. The Qin soldiers split into two groups, pursuing the Tiger Division and the Wolf Division respectively, but they did not pursue this cavalry of less than 10,000 people. Since leaving Yulin Pass, this team of 10,000 people slowed down their march. Everything was going smoothly, they broke through the pass easily and plundered a lot. Later, with the help of Huyan Lieri's Wolf Division, they had no worries and anyone would have let down their guard.
The leader was a middle-aged strong man, wearing Hu clothing and leather armor, sitting upright on his horse, looking into the distance with a bleak look in his eyes. This man was a descendant of Yiqiu, Qiulinshan. When Qin destroyed Yiqiu, his people moved north to Jiuyuan and died among the Xiongnu. They had a deep hatred for the Qin State.
After fifty years of recuperation, the tribe has gained a place among the Xiongnu tribes. Now the Great Khan Touman is leading his troops southward, intending to annex half of the Qin State. He will take this opportunity to lead his people to take back the land that originally belonged to them.
When they were at the intersection of the roads, they suddenly heard the sound of rumbling hooves coming from another ancient road. The Xiongnu cavalry turned around and saw another group of Xiongnu cavalry galloping towards them. No one paid attention to this cavalry team because it was Sukotaku's Tiger Division. The Roaring Sky Tiger was the most obvious symbol. It was taller than a war horse and could be recognized at a glance, but Sukotaku's appearance could not be seen clearly against the sunset.
Xukotuo was one of the four fierce generals under Touman, ranking third. The Tiger Division was one of the four elite cavalry of the Xiongnu. The four elite divisions of the Xiongnu were the Eagle Division, the Wolf Division, the Tiger Division and the Leopard Division. They were carefully cultivated by Touman in recent years and were led by four fierce generals, Ugude, Huyan Lieri, Xukotuo and Qiyan Batu, respectively. They had made great achievements in the conquests of the northern tribes and had a prominent status.
Qiu Linshan frowned, feeling something was wrong. Logically, Xukotuo was the closest to Jiuyuan and should have arrived long ago. Why was he rushing here only now, and the direction he came from was wrong? Did he encounter some accident and was delayed, so he took a detour to get here? Although he had met Xukotuo several times at the court meeting, they had never spoken and he didn't know Xukotuo very well. Even when they attacked Qin this time, they each led their own troops and went their own ways, and then met together in the end to wait for Touman's orders. Moreover, Xukotuo was arrogant and insolent in the Xiongnu, and his Tiger Division was also arrogant and domineering, so the other small tribes had to give in.
Qiu Linshan looked at the Tiger Division. Although he felt something was wrong, he didn't know what was wrong and he had no right to ask. He tightened the reins and ordered: "Make way for the Tiger Division to pass first!" After hearing the order, Qiu Linshan's cavalry stopped advancing and moved to both sides of the road, ready to let the Tiger Division pass.
In a flash, Sukotaku's troops were almost in sight, and the cavalry showed no intention of slowing down, which was the usual style of the Tiger Division. But just when Sukotaku was riding Roaring Tiger and was about to reach Qiulinshan, he suddenly smiled at Qiulinshan.
Qiu Linshan wanted to urge his horse forward to salute, but when he saw Sukotaku's appearance, he was dumbfounded and couldn't utter a word for a long time. This man was wearing armor that was much bigger than his, so how could he be Sukotaku? If he was not him, then where did Sukotaku go and where did this team come from?
Before Qiu Linshan could shout, this team had already rushed into Qiu Linshan's team, suddenly showing their shining weapons, shouting and killing, and rushing towards the unsuspecting cavalry on both sides of the road. For a moment, the cavalry on both sides fell off their horses, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and screams were heard.
Qiu Linshan knew that he had been ambushed. In a flash, he had no time to think and shouted, "Retreat!" But where to retreat? This team was coming from the rear at an incredibly fast speed. His cavalry had already stopped, so there was no way he could run away. Before he could urge his horses, they were all killed and fell off their horses.
Qiu Linshan watched his cavalry being killed in pieces and knew that there was no way back. He swung his scythe, chopped down the cavalry that were charging at him, turned his horse around, and shouted, "Follow me!" He wanted to lead the cavalry to flee to the southwest.
At this moment, a man holding a spear and riding a strong horse rushed towards Qiulinshan, shouting, "Where are you running to!"
Seeing this man so majestic and fearless rushing towards him, Qiu Linshan did not dare to be negligent and swung his sickle to sweep away.
The two horses crossed, and with a clang, the scythe swept across the spear, sparks flew, and the horses neighed at the same time, raising their front hooves high. Qiu Linshan's palms suddenly felt numb, and the scythe almost slipped out of his hand. He was startled, not expecting this man to be so strong, and shouted, "Who is coming?"
The man propped his spear on the ground, turned his horse's head, and said with a stern smile: "The Qin general is Meng Yi!"
Since Wuzhan told Meng Yi about the next plan of the Huns, Meng Yi listened to Wuzhan's advice and took 20,000 cavalrymen, disguised as Huns, out of Shenmu Pass, and continued to pursue the Huns cavalry in order to disrupt the overall plan of the Huns. Due to landslides in the Shenmu Valley, the cavalry was delayed for a long time, so they rushed all the way for a day and a night before arriving at Jiuyuan. Fortunately, the cavalry from Yulin marched slowly and caught up with them. When passing by this place, Wuzhan saw the terrain and the intersection of the two routes. He estimated that the Huns cavalry would arrive here at sunset. When the sunset glowed, they could not see them clearly against the sunset glow, but they could see the Huns cavalry clearly, which was very suitable for an ambush. So he ordered the cavalry to rest here, and when the Huns arrived here, they would rush out from their route and kill them by surprise.
After hearing this, Qiu Linshan looked at the man riding the Roaring Sky Tiger and laughing not far away. Hanging on his long sword was none other than Sukotaku's head. He was horrified and immediately understood the reason. Meng Yi must have led his army to catch up with the Tiger Division and annihilate it, and then pretended to be the Tiger Division to ambush here. But he could not imagine how Meng Yi caught up with the Tiger Division, how he could annihilate all 30,000 cavalrymen, and how he could not even send out a message. Could it be that he dropped from the sky?
Just as he was panicking, Meng Yi's spear came at him like lightning. Qiu Linshan hurriedly waved his sickle to block it. With a "clang", there was another sharp metallic sound. Just as he had deflected the spear, it swept over again, leaving him no chance to breathe.
With a clang, the weapons collided. Qiu Linshan felt a tightness in his chest and almost vomited blood. He knew that he was no match for Meng Yi. If he didn't find a chance to escape, he would surely die.
Seeing the spear coming again, Qiu Linshan clamped his legs around the horse's belly, suddenly leaned to the side of the horse, dodged the spear from Meng Yi, and quickly took out a small bronze tube from his sleeve, put one end into his mouth, aimed at Meng Yi and blew it. With a "whoosh", a black light flew out of the tube and shot towards Meng Yi. Meng Yi didn't expect Qiu Linshan to suddenly release a hidden weapon. He was so close that he couldn't dodge in time. With a "puff", a black needle shot into his right shoulder. Meng Yi screamed in pain, and the spear flew out of his hand.
Wuzhan was watching from a distance. When he saw Meng Yi injured, he shouted, "Second brother!" and urged his horse to gallop towards Meng Yi.
Qiu Linshan looked at his few remaining cavalrymen, slapped his horse's butt with tears in his eyes. The warhorse neighed, galloped out wildly, swung the scythe, cut a bloody path, and headed southwest.
Meng Yi was hit by a hidden weapon and felt severe pain spreading from the wound throughout his body. His whole body became stiff and he could not move. He wanted to chase Qiu Linshan, but it was already impossible. Meng Yi shouted, "Don't let them get away!" He was dizzy and his body was unstable. He slowly fell off the horse.
Jin Xingzi jumped up from the back of Xiaotianhu, jumped under Meng Yi's horse and caught Meng Yi. At this time, several Qin soldiers had gathered around and came forward to support him. Wuzhan hurriedly dismounted and saw that Meng Yi's face was black and his eyes were wandering. He knew that he must have been poisoned. He untied his armor and lifted up his clothes to see that the black needle had penetrated into the muscle, and the surrounding area was black. Wuzhan quickly took out a dagger and ordered Jin Xingzi to cast a spell to burn it with fire.
Meng Yi tightly grasped Wuzhan's hand and said, "My brother will not live long. I hope you can lead the troops to continue to encircle and suppress the Xiongnu and relieve the Qin army from its predicament at Yanmen."
Wuzhan did not answer directly, but silently took the heated dagger from Jin Xingzi and said to Meng Yi: "Second brother, please be patient, I am going to take out the poison needle." Without waiting for Meng Yi to answer, he inserted the dagger into the wound. With a "hiss", the wound was burned. Meng Yi endured the severe pain without saying a word, sweat dripping down his face.
After Wuzhan found the poison needle, he used the tip of the knife to gently pick out the three-inch long black poison needle, tore off a piece of cloth, wrapped one end of the poison needle, put it in front of his nose and smelled it carefully, frowning slightly as he thought.
At this time, the Hun cavalry had been annihilated by the Qin army, and only less than a hundred people were left. They broke through the siege through Qiulin Mountain and fled, and could no longer be caught up.
The roads were littered with corpses, blood flowed like rivers, and wailing was heard everywhere. Under the reflection of the dark red glow, it was tragic and cruel.
Wuzhan said: "The poison here is a mixture of Aconitum red, tiger snake venom, and pufferfish bile. It's not that the poison cannot be cured, but it's difficult to collect the required medicinal materials at the moment. Only..."
Meng Yi's breathing became heavier and heavier, his consciousness gradually blurred, and he said weakly: "Life and death are determined by fate and cannot be forced. Don't worry, my dear brother. I didn't expect that we would be separated after only three days of being brothers. I really hope that I can defeat the Xiongnu army with you and bring peace to the world."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wuzhan was seen holding a dagger and scraping away the blackened flesh around the wound. Dark red blood flowed out. He then leaned over and sucked out the poisonous blood mouthful by mouthful.
Although Meng Yi was in a state of confusion, he still knew that Wuzhan was sucking out the poisonous blood for him, so he shouted, "Brother, no, it will kill you again." But his body could not move and he could not stop it.
Wuzhan ignored him until he had sucked out the bright red blood, then he said, "The poison has already spread throughout the body. Suckling out these only removes the source of the poison. There is still poison that has penetrated into the bone marrow and is endangering life. My blood is highly poisonous. We have no choice but to take a risk and see if we can control the poison." After saying that, he took out another dagger, cut his wrist, and blood instantly flowed out. Wuzhan let the flowing blood drip onto Meng Yi's wound. Although Meng Yi could not open his eyes, tears had already flowed out until he fell into a coma.
After Wuzhan bandaged Meng Yi's wound, Jin Xingzi stepped forward to stop his bleeding and bandage it. Due to excessive blood loss, Wuzhan was pale and beads of sweat were hanging on his face. He was also gambling whether the blood in his body could detoxify the poison.
……
The evening breeze was cool, the waning moon was like a hook, and the sound of horses neighing could be heard from the forest from time to time, making the place even more lonely and desolate. Wuzhai leaned against the rock, looking up at the twinkling and psychedelic starry sky, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.
A dark shadow floated in the night sky, and landed silently and slowly beside Wuzhe, whispering: "Everything is as Little Master expected, and now the cavalry team is heading here."
