Qin Official

"Wonderful victory!" With a burst of cheers, the dark flag of the Qin army was planted on the archery tower of Waihuang Xicheng. Under the heavy fire from bows and crossbows, this archery tower was covered with arrow feathers, as if it had suddenly sprouted countless feathers.

Heifu and his men were as scarred as the arrow tower, but everyone was in high spirits, regardless of the pain of their wounds, and raised their weapons high to celebrate their victory in capturing the city.

It turned out that just now, as Heifu's camp climbed to the top of the city and gained a firm foothold, he firmly guarded the battlements with bamboo ladders with long soldiers in front and powerful crossbows in the back, allowing the follow-up troops to come in one after another. Climb the city.

There were more and more black-robed Qin soldiers at the top of the city, which reversed the offensive and defensive situation.

The main force defending the city was the light knights raised by the Waihuang Order. These people had not received special military training, and they only relied on momentary courage to fight without order. It's okay to fight alone, but when you encounter this kind of attack and defend the city, it will be difficult to hold on when you are at a disadvantage. The Qin people's fierce attack like a tiger climbing up the mountain put huge pressure on them, and the light knights began to lose ground.

This is especially true for those temporarily recruited Waihuang civilians, who can only wave the flag and shout, and fight against the wind.

When the Qin soldiers began to slowly press on the city, their invincible momentum caused many light warriors who were not very determined to start to avoid giving in. Seeing more and more people killed in battle, the Qin army seemed to have become the incarnation of death, pressing on them step by step, breaking the tight strings of this group of people.

One after another, the defenders began to turn around and run away. They had no way out, so they jumped off the three-foot-high city wall. Some people accidentally broke their feet, but more people got up immediately and continued running.

At this time, the Wei people who came to support from the south of the city also arrived, numbering in the hundreds. He was about to drive the Qin soldiers out of the city, but he was shocked when he saw his panicked companions jumping over the wall crazily and running towards this side.

They didn't know the situation on the west wall of the city. Looking at the situation in front of them, they thought the city had been defeated. The human instinct of survival made them lose the courage to continue to die for the sect master. First one, then ten, then a hundred, More and more light heroes stopped fighting and began to flee into the city.

Among them, the fastest and earliest runner was the young man with a thick beard (rán) who glanced at the black man when he just climbed to the top of the city.

Heifu remembered that he was about thirty years old, with unkempt hair in a bun, wearing short back clothes, and holding a two-foot sword. He was a typical knight-errant swordsman. When he saw Heifu coming to the city, the young knight raised his sword to confront the enemy. Heifu was still careful to guard against him.

Unexpectedly, this big man suddenly shouted "Protect Mr. Zhang!" and then he flew like a fly, through the chaotic battlefield at the head of the city, and disappeared. His movements were so skillful, as if he had rehearsed them countless times in his mind. Heifu was dumbfounded...

Probably, he was the first light knight to jump off the city wall and escape, and he set an example for those behind him.

After the battle, Hei Fu found out that the foreigner, Zhang Er, was still on the south wall of the city at that time!

Heifu was speechless.

So, how should we evaluate that light-hearted man with a beautiful beard? Call him cowardly. He had obviously been holding on to the city for a long time and even killed a Qin soldier who had first arrived at the camp.

Call him brave, but when this man saw something bad, he immediately ran away, shouting such slogans, and others thought he was really going to protect the master.

"He is a smart man, but his style is really bachelorish." Heifu could only conclude this way in the end,

Heifu quickly forgot about the light knight. After the battle came to an end, he began to check the casualties in his camp.

…

On the city wall that had just passed the fierce battle, there was a strong smell of blood floating in the slightly humid air in the early morning. In addition, there was a hint of burnt smell, and even the smell of feces and urine. The three smells were mixed together, making people feel... Want to vomit...

However, Heifu did not vomit. From the bloody battle in the morning to the end, he witnessed death and blood. His sword cut off two arms and cut off a head. The blade was already chipped and there were traces of blood on it. The residual blood that cannot be wiped dry.

Not counting Chen Liu's favorable battle, this was the first time that Heifu truly experienced the cruelty of ancient war in person. There was no blood boiling, and he was a little shocked, but more numb.

Fortunately, he was lucky. He only had some skin scratches during the battle and was not seriously injured.

But those Qin soldiers who climbed to the top of the city first were not so lucky.

The captain who first arrived at the camp was actually not dead. He was leaning on the wall at the moment, closing his eyes weakly: in addition to the large and small blade wounds on his body, the sharp arrows directly penetrated his left palm, and in the rough right hand There was a bloody wound on his body, but the captain's right hand still held the sword tightly, as if he could continue to fight.

Although the commander's men suffered heavy casualties, less than ten of the fifty men remained. However, the military law is relatively relaxed for these "those who are the first to ascend the battlefield". It stipulates that as long as their camp is the first to ascend the siege, even if it is "surplus", fifty people can be promoted to the first level, and those who die at the same time can , the title can also be inherited by descendants...

This is also the reason why some people are willing to be the first to get into trouble despite knowing the danger. The greater the risk, the greater the gain. For Qin families, it is undoubtedly worthwhile to use one's life to win titles for their descendants.

Military merit is not the result of one person in one moment, but the legacy of a family for three generations.

Heifu cherished his life, and of course he would not choose such a tragic upgrade method, but he respected the soldiers who were trapped in the battle. After bowing to the chief of the village, he also asked his own people to help collect the corpse.

Speaking of which, the casualties in their camp were actually quite large. Ji Ying, Li Xian and others were all injured, but they were all minor injuries. What worried Heifu the most was the Dongmen Leopard.

Just now, this guy relied on his thick armor, almost one against ten, and made a great contribution to them getting to the top of the city. But after the battle, Heifu couldn't find him...

At this moment, the narrow city wall has been blocked by corpses scattered here and there, including young knights and civilians, as well as Qin soldiers. It is a bit scary at first glance. Coupled with the randomly discarded weapons, it is difficult to move on the city wall. Heifu walked around the city with difficulty, turning over the prone corpses one by one, looking at the bloody faces one by one, looking for the surviving men.

"A Bao... is here!" Finally, Xiao Tao shouted, and Heifu and others hurried over and were stunned.

The Dongmen Leopard was lying in a pile of corpses. When he was dug out, he saw that his body was soaked in blood and his leather armor was in tatters.

Heifu hurriedly called Ji Ying and Gong Ao, and together they moved the body away, dragged the Dongmen Leopard out, and checked for pulse. Fortunately, he was still alive!

Heifu quickly asked Bu Cheng to come and see Dongmen Leopard, because Bu Cheng once said that he knew some medical skills...

After a hurried examination, Bu Cheng told Heifu, sweating profusely, that Dongmen Leopard had a gash on his thigh, and there were seven or eight wounds on his back, shoulders, and arms. Blood was leaking out, almost Dye him into a bloody man! "You must be sent to the camp quickly for medical treatment, otherwise your life will not be saved!"

As soon as Bu Cheng said this, everyone in Huyang Pavilion who was friendly with Dongmen Leopard immediately changed their colors.

"Didn't you brag that you can not only do divination but also have medical skills?" Heifu's expression changed and he grabbed the divination collar and said.

"I have only learned some witch doctor skills and know some herbal medicines. In the military, we don't know how to treat scars. We need a specialized scar doctor!" Bu Cheng explained quickly, but Heifu had no time to listen to his nonsense. .

He pushed Bu Cheng away and rolled up his sleeves: "Then I'll do it myself!"

Bu Cheng murmured: "Captain, do you know how to deal with the golden wound? This is not a fool's errand. It's better to carry it down to the city first."

Of course Heifu knows how to do it. In his previous life in the police academy, he at least learned some battlefield emergency first aid. Dongmen leopard is a symptom of massive bleeding in the limbs. The large blood vessels have been damaged and must be treated immediately without delay! Otherwise, your life will be in danger!

Although Dongmen Leopard is reckless, he is brave and loyal in battle. From Huyang Pavilion to the army, he has always been Heifu's right-hand man.

What's more, there is a newborn child in his family who is waiting for his father's glorious return. In the past few months, Dongmen Bao has been talking about his "son" who he has never met before...

So no matter what, Heifu had to quickly remember the battlefield emergency rescue that he had almost forgotten, and he must save the life of Dongmen Leopard!

He took a deep breath and instructed Ji Ying and others: "You guys, take off your belt immediately!"
