_3 “Surrender, don’t kill!”
Thus, these two thousand infantryn all stepped forward.
With a thunderous solemnity, they cried out in unison:
“Drop your weapons!”
“Surrender, don’t kill!”
The sound of weapons hitting the ground was crisp, continuous.
In Murong Yuan’s blurred vision, it seed as if the battlefield had flipped in an instant.
Amidst the intense blaze, a Qilin approached, and the person on the Qilin’s back dismounted, wearing a dark golden face mask, his crimson battle robe fluttering as he steadied himself.
“Are you still alright?”
Li Guanyi steadied Murong Yuan, seeing the nurous wounds all over him, obviously from a fierce battle, then he shouted, “Where is the Pill Master!”
Murong Yuan’s consciousness slowly drifted away as he was vaguely handed over to a group of people.
Feeling finally at ease, this brave scion of the Murong Family felt a sense of survival, when he heard an anxious voice, “Damn, with such wounds, can he still be alive?”
“When jumping down from the city wall, he was injured during the retreat and then wounded by a Hooked Scythe Spear…”
“The internal organs are also impacted, with ruptures in all five viscera and six entrails, pooling of blood inside, he’s starting to vomit blood——”
“Ah, has Boss Shi arrived?!”
Then a voice calmly commanded, “Be careful, plug the wound.
What, can’t plug it?
Stuff it directly with cotton cloth mixed with Hemostatic Powder.
Whether it hurts or not, talk about surviving first; dead people don’t have the right to cry out in pain.”
“Brothers who survive, and still have the energy to scold us, are more important than praising us.”
“Lacking compassion?
Bullshit, I’m one of the old ghosts, doing the job of snatching people from King Yanluo, dammit, you must live.”
Before Murong Yuan passed out, he heard all this.
He was initially moved, but then he heard soone say, “Bad, he’s about to pass out.
This amount of bleeding, backflow of blood can lead to death, severe unconsciousness coupled with vomiting blood, the tongue unconsciously falling back, if it blocks the throat, he could suffocate.”
“Got a needle?”
“Watch now, this is an experience gained from marching; at this ti, if you pin his tongue to sothing upfront, he’ll be safe——”
Murong Yuan struggled a bit.
!!!!
Struggling within his hazy consciousness.
What the hell kind of doctor is this?!
Fuck!
Where did this old ghost co from, let die!
Then he was subdued by a group of extrely strong individuals.
……
Qilin Army’s sudden intrusion into this battle ended it quickly.
The attacking forces seed to be just a secondary troop.
Facing the Qilin Army with three famous generals, they almost had no defensive power and collapsed, but it did not result in total annihilation.
Even with encirclent from all sides, ultimately, a small portion of the army managed to break out and flee.
When the enemy’s casualty rate neared twenty percent, they completely collapsed, most being captured.
The logistic troops, led directly by Lei Laong and Shi Dalin with the Exotic Beast Army, got cut off, and when the logistic officer realized he was only facing five hundred n and had been tricked by the old hand of Lei Laong, he was so angry he almost drew his sword to kill himself.
Because of Taiping Duke’s reputation.
The people of East Crossing City opened their gates, welcoming this army into their town.
They brought out their remaining supplies of food, gold, and silver, loaded on carts, offered following the customs of the era by the venerable and morally upright among them, willing to present them to the General.
Li Guan Yi asked Ling Pingyang, “Did my old man also receive such tributes?”
Ling Pingyang smiled, “He did, although I wasn’t under General Yue’s command at the ti, but I’ve always heard the stories.
Theoretically, Taiping Duke once forcefully extorted the leaders in the Southwest, taking Bright Pearls, which were gifted to the brothers in the army and the common folk.”
“As for coming to Jiangnan, he certainly never did such a thing.”
Li Guan Yi thought for a mont, then told the elderly, “Please take it back.”
The white-haired elder hesitated, “Why?”
The young man removed his helt, and to the elder’s shock, he was just a sixteen-year-old boy, his heroic bearing not diminished by the teary mole at the corner of his eye, he calmly said:
“Being besieged for so long, everyone in the city must be lacking food.
Please distribute this gold and silver among the citizens, less for the rich and more for the poor; and these ats, please boil them into porridge and distribute it to the people.”
The elder hesitated, initially thinking that the general was just playing a role seeking fa.
His own troops would definitely not be satisfied.
This valiant army didn’t enter the city, nor did they express any complaints, having been initially ingrained by Li Guan Yi with such a foundation, naturally began to set up camp outside the city, even the General himself didn’t enter.
Thanks to the logistic supplies from Chen Country’s army, Li Guan Yi’s Qilin Army finally got to eat rice.
Previously in the mountains they ate whatever was available; this ti they cooked good food, and with plenty of available at and even wine, though the army didn’t drink alcohol, at and rice were abundant.
Originally, the logistic general Ning Zhaoji thought he might starve to death, yet found those people bringing over food and drink.
Lei Laong said, “The captured food and at, only once every three days.”
“But for vegetables and rice, you won’t be shortchanged, yet you have to work.
Those who lie down won’t eat; co on, one by one.”
Ning Zhaoji grinned and also went to get his share of food, Lei Laong adeptly said, “Young man, what’s your na?
You’re pretty quick on the uptake, you know, if we weren’t so fast, you all would have escaped.”
Ning Zhaoji took a bite of the food and could only reply, “Ning Zhaoji, from the Southwest of Chen Country, studied for a few years at the Military School in Jiangzhou, working in logistics…”
Lei Laong said, “Ah, a scholar indeed, co on, have a couple more pieces of at.”
