It’s completely dark in the battlefield, and the fires are the dead evil spirits. When their heads are cut off by soldiers and pickled with quicklime, the black-striped magic skin on their bodies is cruelly peeled off, and the remains will be exposed. The imperial infantry soldiers who won the wilderness war will not be physically strong. More often, they will take torches in their hands and walk to the bodies of evil spirits to light them.
When these evil spirits die, the thick dark purple blood in their bodies becomes easily ignited.
Therefore, in the dark night, there will be clusters of bonfires in the wild battlefield. These bonfires will burn until the bodies of evil spirits are left with white bones, and the Shan Ye wind will blow these ashes all over the battlefield.
Surdak sat in front of a bed crossbow console, and the battalion chief of this group of bed crossbow soldiers chatted shoulder to shoulder.
Getting along for nearly a day has made the captain of crossbowmen have a deep understanding of the strength of Surdak.
Baron Sidney rode his horse to the top of the slope. Behind him were 300 heavily armored infantry soldiers. Surdak hurriedly led Baron Sidney to the camp where the fourth brigade was arranged. On the other side of the hillside, besides setting up the camp tent, Surdak also prepared hot horse patties for the fourth brigade infantry soldiers.
This kind of horse meat patty is made by chopping lean horse meat, adding some water chestnuts, onion, pepper and salt, and simply baking. Each horse meat patty is almost the size of a palm, and its appearance is slightly burnt. It feels a bit like the taste of a lion’s head that has just been fried in an oil pan, but it has not been steamed in a steamer and is not covered with a delicious soup. However, it can be eaten like this baked food instead of marching rations like paste. Of course, it is rare and delicious.
Seeing that he had not come forward, the soldier was placed in a very appropriate position. Baron Sidney vaulted the horse and threw the reins to his followers behind him. He came to Surdak and took off his white gloves and patted Surdak on the shoulder affectionately.
"How are things going?"
Baron staring at sur tak eagerly asked.
Seeing Surdak’s hesitation in answering, Baron Sidney felt that Surdak’s idea of going home was greater than that of becoming a knight.
However, this matter concerns the life of the squadron leader of the fourth brigade. Baron Sidney hopes that one of these squadron leaders can be his own confidant, and there are few candidates to choose. This Surdak civilian background is the best choice at present.
Baron Sidney close to Surdak bass said to him
"Don’t do this. There are often people who have waited for decades and may not be able to catch up once."
He saw Surdak and listened attentively, so he went on to say
"Being able to become a Green Empire is a knighthood. You will have many special features. For example, you can collect taxes on your own land and pay a little symbolically to the empire every year."
Land tax will always be a burden on civilians to carry two mountains. Surdak was tempted when he heard Baron Sidney say this.
Baron Sidney continued
"You’re not the only candidate for the mid-team leader this time. If you haven’t fought for them, I can ask Count Mondego to apply for your retirement and sign it so that you can have a smooth journey home, and you can be my retinue. Even if you encounter problems when you return to Hailanza, you can go to akol Wenling for my help with your identity nameplate. Even if I don’t, my housekeeper will handle all this and give you some help."
This time, Baron Sidney came to Surdak with great sincerity. Although I don’t know why Baron Sidney wants to be a knight so eagerly, I can see some tangible benefits.
Before the baron Sidney, he straightened up and Surdak said
"Baron Sidney, I am willing to accept this knight selection."
Seeing that Surdak promised to come to Sidney, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder again and said to him, "Do a good job, I am optimistic about you!"
Staring at Surdak by Baron Sidney, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable all over.
……
Boqiang is squatting in front of a horse with injured legs, peeling a knife, cutting a branch flat, and then tightly wrapping the linen of the broken horse leg around two splints so that the broken bone will not return and cause dislocation again.
This is a horse from Gubolai with leg injury. When Boqiang saw it, it was wearing a heavy armor and lying in a mud pit. He tied it with some of his dead horses. Those heavy cavalry who died in battle have already carried it to the rear, so a farewell ceremony will be held in about the next day.
There are many dying horses around, and most of them are incurable. Infantry soldiers don’t mind sending them the last journey with swords in their hands.
It’s this war horse, but it hurts its leg. If it is treated, there is still a chance to get better.
The limited transportation capacity of the logistics department is to transport more than 200 heavy cavalry bodies in addition to battlefield materials. These wounded horses that are not dead but can not be transported back to the battlefield and those that have died in battle are all called horse meat here.
Boqiang may be reluctant to kill such a fat and strong horse on the spot when he sees that the horse is still being treated, so he ran to the top of the slope to pull the crossbow. The coachman asked him to pull the crossbow mule to pull the injured horse back to the hillside camp.
The coachman knew that Bo Qiang was dumb and a low-ranking infantry soldier. When he saw Bo Qiang’s meal, he refused to help. In the end, the silver shovel was more eloquent and successfully made the coachman change his mind.
Augustus felt very puzzled about this. It seems to him that a silver shovel can hardly do anything on the battlefield. Where is a heavily armored infantry soldier worth mutual affection?
In any case, the injured horse became a living piece of horse meat after taking off its expensive armor, and Boqiang took it back to the camp at the top of the slope.
The Red Sox helped Boqiang to successfully splint the front leg of the horse.
"Even if it is cured, it is impossible for an infantry soldier to own a war horse, and it is branded by the Heavy Cavalry Corps. Now it is a pile of horse meat. When it is cured, someone from the Heavy Cavalry Corps will come forward to ask for a war horse. They will not recognize that you have cured this war horse. This horse belongs to you …" Dahuka Girbo Qiang said endlessly behind him.
Bo Qiang finally patted cagle on the shoulder as a sign that he knew all this.
Treating this war horse is just to save it …
Chapter 13 War Horse 2
Boqiang’s rescue of a horse with a broken leg from the battlefield has become one of the main topics of the second team in recent days.
The second group of soldiers agreed that the horse with a broken leg should be given the last bit of dignity and let it die with dignity. At most, everyone would not enjoy its horse meat. We should dig a cemetery to bury it, even if the soldiers killed in the expeditionary force did not receive such treatment. This proposal was rejected by Boqiang.
The horse with a broken leg refused to lie down honestly and forced himself to get up several times, which led to Boqiang’s loosening of the splint that tied the horse’s legs. Just after some of the horse’s legs were restored, it caused another fracture. Finally, Boqiang wrapped the horse up and hung the tree to expose the horse’s head and four horse’s legs to make the horse honest.
Since the horse was hanged from the tree, Boqiang has one more every day, that is, he has to wait for the dew to clear up early every day and go to the hillside where there are plenty of water and grass to mow the grass and feed the horse.
Well, the second team has been stationed on this slope for several days. The heavily armored infantry soldiers have built some fortifications around this slope to prevent evil spirits from raiding. If they want to occupy this slope, they must break through the layers of defense on the battlefield. Therefore, the infantry soldiers stationed here need to prevent the evil spirits from attacking at night.
The second team was stationed on this slope for almost a week and was attacked by evil spirits for two consecutive nights, but they were all found to have successfully stopped the evil spirits from raiding when they were ambushed on the hillside.
Every day, Boqiang tries to reveal the light golden light from his body, and he can feel the warmth in that light. Whenever he treats the hanging tree horse, it seems to be very quiet and can feel the recovery in the light.
On the fifth day, Boqiang ran to feed the horse forage and found that the linen bandage and board clamp wrapped around his horse leg had been broken. When the horse saw Boqiang coming with a basket of forage on his back, he shouted at Boqiang.
Bo Qiang didn’t expect this horse’s broken leg to recover so quickly. He tried to untie the rope of the horse’s body and let four horse legs land. The horse firmly planted trees and grass, and two injured front legs kept kicking and stepping on the grass on the ground. He looked like he couldn’t wait to break free and run around the hillside.
Bo Qiang untied it from the rope, and the horse jumped out like a left arrow to the hillside grass and ran for a few laps. Finally, the hillside was full of water and grass and stopped to eat quietly.
At this time, Bo Qiang realized that the magical power released by his body nodes was still healing.
Boqiang sits in a tree and mentally manipulates the power of knowing the sea. It is found that those pale golden forces come to light up the body. A little bit of divine power is diluted from the nodes to form an air mass in Boqiang’s knowledge sea. With one’s own thoughts, the air mass can reach all parts of the body and can also be revealed through the palm of one’s hand. After that force reaches the outside of the body, it takes more mental power to control it. This spirit maintains the divine power and will eventually dissipate with the wind in the hand.
Nowadays, the nodes in Boqiang’s body are still lit up in an orderly way, which may be due to the recent frequent fighting. The number of lit nodes has reached 15, but Boqiang can feel that the growth of physical strength is very slow, as if he needs an opportunity to make a breakthrough.
Unconsciously, I sat in this Jeremy goldkorn for a long time, and when Bo Qiang opened his eyes, I found that the horse was quietly beside me, with his head down and eating grass. The horse jumped out of the distance when he saw Bo Qiang get up from the tree.
After a while, I saw Bo Qiang running to the tree without any follow-up movement and’ kicking and kicking’.
Boqiang wants to go to the horse, and the horse doesn’t seem to want Boqiang to be close to one person and one horse, keeping a distance of about ten meters.
"Come on, run away from here and don’t come back. It will become more and more dangerous here. Don’t ride for those heavy cavalry. You can enjoy a freedom of your own …"
Bo Qiang said to the bordeaux horse in a crude indigenous language.
It’s not that he can’t pronounce, but every time he wants to speak Imperial, he becomes a state of loss. Bo Qiang thinks this may be some psychological obstacles, but when he looks back, he feels that he is mentally healthy and has no signs of autism.
The horse Ma Ziran couldn’t understand what Bo Qiang said, but he saw Bo Qiang whispering to him, shook his neck mane and took two steps to Bo Qiang’s side.
Horse meat will only appear in the infantry menu when heavy cavalry regiment and armored knights suffer heavy casualties.
