Volume 1 The War of Wars and Chaos Chapter 34 The Great Pass
Luo Yu stopped taking the official road and went straight into the mountains bypassing Heshun. He wanted to get to Weize Pass as soon as possible to meet Li Xiuning.
This section of the road is full of mountain roads, with steep cliffs, mountain streams and deep ravines everywhere. The training subjects of the special forces team have shown their greatest advantage in this environment, and by the way, the dozen or so people from the same lineage of disguises have also been trained.
come out.
From the fear at the beginning to the courage to move forward after passing three or four cliffs, they are making progress every time they pass. The only shortcoming is physical fitness, which cannot be changed in the short term.
If Luo Yu did not enter the mountain, but went north along the foot of the mountain in the direction of Xiyang, he would have found the mark left by the Detachment of Women, and they would have missed it again.
The special operations team is the team least likely to be short of food. As long as they can eat, they will eat whatever is available, whether raw or cooked, or taste all five flavors, as long as it can fill their stomachs.
When the dozen young men were vomiting from eating raw bamboo rat meat, Luo Yu and the senior team members looked at them while eating the rat meat cut into thin strips with a knife with relish.
When they saw the blood sticking to their lips and teeth, they couldn't help but vomited again, this time all the gall, and then they were ordered to eat hare meat raw...
After doing this for two or three times, only those who no longer vomited were let go, so now they still like the taste of raw meat.
Training must be moderate. Eating too much raw meat can easily lead to parasites and bloodthirsty. If you cross the line, the gain outweighs the gain.
All the way over mountains and ridges, flying vines across ditches, and leaping over streams, three days later at noon, we bypassed Xiyang City and arrived at Dongyang Town under Weize Pass. After lunch, we were about to go up the mountain when Yang Man heard confusion from behind.
cried: "Luo Yu, is that you?"
Luo Yu heard Yang Man's voice a little strange. He didn't know that Yang Man was in Li Xiuning's women's army. He turned his head and took a look, and suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.
That day, Li Xiuning was injured when she blocked a mace in a hurry. When she closed her eyes and waited for death, Yang Man and Qiu'er whipped their horses and stabbed directly at the throat and temples of the tall general, trying to save him.
Seeing that there was no way he could do anything, the general withdrew the mace as soon as it touched Li Xiuning's abdomen, blocked it in the face, and caught the two men's spear points, but he also paid a price for this move.
Although they are women, Yang Man and Qiu'er have practiced martial arts since childhood, and their strength is more explosive than that of ordinary women. Coupled with the impact of the horse's speed, the general's mace collided with two different forces, and he couldn't handle it.
Stop and hit him straight into the cheeky face. Half of the sharp spikes of the mace had already penetrated his right cheek.
The screams came, and the general pulled the mace hard and pulled out the eyeball of his right eye. The right side of his face was bloody and fleshy, with empty eye frames. He looked like an evil ghost crawling out of hell.
.
The two of them did not dare to neglect, and the spears came up and down again. Yang Man attacked the general's horse, and Qiu'er stabbed him directly in the throat.
That general was also very capable. In the blink of an eye, he pulled the reins and lifted the horse, making the horseman stand up. The two men's spears missed and pierced the horse's neck and legs respectively.
The tall Mobei war horse whinnied and kicked a few times with its front hooves. The pain was unbearable, and its huge body weighing over a thousand kilograms fell to the ground. It pinned the opponent underneath, and it was unknown whether it was alive or dead.
There was no time to check. The cavalry at the city gate had killed them again. Yang Man and Qiu'er carried Li Xiuning, who had vomited blood and fainted, to Qiu'er's horse. They turned their horses and ran forward.
The pursuers came to kill them, but fortunately the women's army in the rear had also seized hundreds of horses and rushed towards the pursuers.
Qiu'er didn't know what had happened to Li Xiuning. She didn't have time to stop and check now. Those comrades who had seized the horse could not match the enemy in terms of number or strength. They rushed forward with the intention of dying just to save the general's life.
Yang Man wanted to turn the horse's head and rush forward to help, but his teammates who arrived behind him slapped the horse's butt hard. The horse was in pain and ran forward like flying, leaving Qiu'er and Li Xiuning's horses behind.
At this moment, shouts of killing came from the enemy's rear. Yang Man stopped his horse and slowed down to look back. It turned out that the young and strong men who had retreated from Xiyang City had settled down their parents, wives and children and then came back to kill them.
The Tumon cavalry from the north of the city also arrived at this time, and those of the Detachment of Women who had not snatched the horses were not idle. They set up more than a dozen horse snagging ropes on the path they must pass. As soon as the cavalry arrived, the people fell on their backs.
From time to time, there were screams, and the sisters seemed to have endless blood. They went to kill the enemy one after another. If there was no horse, they raised their spears and stabbed the horse's belly, neck and other soft parts, but the horse was stabbed to death.
, all that awaits them is death.
There was no trace of the enemy in the northeast corner, so they could only break out there. Yang Man and Qiu'er led their horses forward. The three to four hundred Detachment of Women who were still able to move retreated while setting up snagging ropes to delay the arrival of the pursuers.
Ten snagging ropes were laid out every one mile, and they were not stopped until all were used up. Then, rolling logs and other methods that could kill the pursuers were set up directly on the hillside, and they were arranged in this way while breaking out toward the northeast.
Ten miles later, the horse was exhausted and fell to the ground, frothing at the mouth. Yang Man rolled off the horse, but Qiuer fell directly to the ground to protect Li Xiuning on his back. The two of them were overwhelmed by the momentum and both spit out a large mouthful of blood.
.
Fortunately, Li Xiu also spit out this mouthful of blood and drained out the accumulated blood in her abdominal cavity. Otherwise, how could she still be alive? After exhaling, she woke up leisurely.
She opened her eyes and glanced at Yang Man in front of her and Qiu'er below her, and said to Yang Man: "The entire army... is advancing towards Wei Ze... Pass... and there is someone... there... to meet us." After that, she continued.
He passed out due to excessive injuries.
Yang Man no longer hesitated, pulled off his cloak, cut it into long strips with a gun, put Li Xiuning on his back, tied her to herself with strips of cloth, pulled up Qiu'er who had recovered, and glanced at the few people behind him.
Sisters, wave and stride forward.
It is twenty miles from Xiyang to Dongyang, and now we are halfway there. There are still ten miles to go and we can reach it in half an hour if we speed up our pace. The only hope now is that the trap set up can delay the arrival of the enemy cavalry and gain more time to reach Weize Pass.
.
What she didn't expect was to see a familiar figure as soon as she arrived in Dongyang Town. She couldn't believe it, so Yang Man held back her excitement and asked: "Luo Yu, is that you?"
Luo Yu and the others looked back, and saw that Yang Man's white armor had been dyed maroon with spots, and her pretty face was also stained with blood. She was not wearing a helmet, and her blood-stained long hair was tied into a ponytail and wrapped around her chest, with her hands wrapped around her chest.
Then he held up Li Xiuning, whose face was like gold paper and who was unconscious.
Behind her were the equally embarrassed Qiu'er and the three to four hundred wounded Detachment of Women. The ones at the back were still watching their approach warily, as if they were being pursued by pursuers.
Luo Yu was inexplicably anxious. In this battle, the Detachment of Women suffered heavy casualties!
Without having time to think about it, he waved to Zhang Yang with a gloomy face, and walked quickly towards Yang Man, who was already a little exhausted. He hugged Li Xiuning from her back, asked those in the art of disguise to help distribute the hemostatic medicine, and then went to the inn next to her.
Go.
Zhang Yang had never seen such an expression on the instructor's face, and when he saw the general and the comrades behind her in such miserable condition, he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to avenge them. Luo Yu's cold eyes when he waved to him couldn't help but shudder.
Shiver, this is to ask them to use all their enemy-killing skills to make it impossible for the pursuers to come back.
Zhang Yang licked his dry lips, turned his head and said to more than a dozen first-generation team members: "Brothers, come with me to kill the enemy!" After saying that, he jumped up and ran out.
All the members of the first generation are ruthless characters. They have been tested on the battlefield and can make full use of various things on the battlefield to kill the enemy. Unless the enemy is thousands of cavalry, otherwise these dozen members will not be afraid.
Fighting in mountains and jungles, they are the kings of this era.
There were not many people in the town, there was only one inn, two teahouses and a medicine shop, and it happened that the doctor from the medicine shop was visiting the inn at this time.
When the people in the town heard the commotion, they all came out to see what was going on. Most of them were old people and children, and even women were rare. They were probably afraid that the enemy was coming, so they hid in their homes.
Seeing the miserable state of the Detachment of Women, they were not too afraid. There had been wars here all year round, and they had seen this situation many times. The opposite side was full of injured girls, and some even walked over with water and food.
The doctor in his thirties, who was wearing a long gown, had just diagnosed the disease and prescribed medicine. He picked up the medicine box and was about to leave. Luo Yu walked forward, bowed deeply, and then cupped his hands and said: "Sir, there is a seriously injured person among the juniors.
Please help me take a look."
The doctor also held up his hands and smiled: "Please lead the way!"
Luo Yu felt sad when he saw Li Xiuning lying on the bed, looking pale and angry. After taking a look, the doctor ordered Luo Yu to light a candle, then opened the medicine box and took out a roll of black cloth.
Opening the black cloth, there are dozens of silver needles of different sizes inside.
He did not feel the pulse, quickly pulled out the needle, roasted the silver needle on the candle flame, then slowly inserted it into the center of Li Xiuning's eyebrow, half an inch into the flesh.
After finishing the first needle, he looked at Li Xiuning's face, smiled and stroked his short beard, then quickly completed the second and third needles according to the law, and did not stop until eight needles were inserted into eight facial acupoints.
.
After thinking for a while, he took out a silver needle one size larger and inserted it into the Baihui point on the top of his head again. This time, he was very slow and his hand was very steady. Only when it was done did he let out a long sigh of relief and said: "This little
My wife's internal organs are injured, and I have protected her heart. Next, I will invite a female family member to come over, and I will treat her abdominal injury."
Luo Yu hurriedly said: "Thank you sir, I will call someone in right now!" After saluting, he turned around and went outside the house, calling a female soldier with only some flesh wounds to come in to help.
Zhang Yang hasn't come back yet. There should be a large number of enemy troops. They are still thinking of ways to kill and injure the enemy troops. Luo Yu has confidence in them.
Arriving in front of Yang Man who had washed her face and hair, Luo Yu saluted and said, "The common people have seen Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Yang Man smiled bitterly and said: "Princess, please stop laughing at me. By the way, how is the general?"
Luo Yu said worriedly: "She was injured too badly and will have to be nursed for a while. During this period, the remaining sisters of the Women's Army will ask Her Royal Highness to take care of her. There is no danger to defend here. It is not suitable to stay for a long time. We still have to go to Weize Pass."
go."
Yang Man nodded and said: "The sisters are all injured. Now I'm afraid that going up the mountain will aggravate their injuries. But if I don't go up the mountain, I won't be able to stop the enemy's pursuit. I really don't know what to do..."
Luo Yu knew that she already had a plan in mind, so he said this deliberately because he was worried that Li Xiuning would settle accounts with her in the future after he recovered from his injury. It was better to let Luo Yu make the decision than to put it forward, so as to avoid the suspicion of trying to win over people's hearts.
Yang Man grew up in a deep palace and has seen too many political intrigues. This army was organized by Li Xiuning. She can be regarded as a passer-by at best, at least for now, if she can find a way to bring the remaining sisters to safety
When arriving at Weize Pass, no one would be worried about what Li Xiuning would think of her after she woke up.
Luo Yu figured this out but didn't break it. He turned to the only remaining special forces team member and said, "Lu Xiao, go and ask the mayor to come over."
Lu Xiao accepted the promise, turned around and walked towards the crowd who were still bandaging the wounded of the Detachment of Women. After a while, he brought an old man with gray hair and gray hair in brocade clothes and walked up to Luo Yu and saluted: "Instructor, this is the mayor Xu
Old gentleman."
Luo Yu cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Xu, junior Luo Yu, please forgive me for disturbing you uninvited today."
Mr. Xu also raised his hands and said: "Your army does not disturb the people and does not plunder. The military discipline is strict. Why bother? I wonder why the army leader called me here?"
Luo Yu said: "Mr. Xu, our army was attacked by foreign cavalry in Xiyang. You have also seen that there were heavy casualties. We should not have led the pursuers to your area and harmed our people in the Sui Dynasty. But it is useless to talk about it now.
Now, I would like to discuss with Mr. Xu whether we can let everyone leave the town first and go to Weize Pass to avoid this disaster?"
Mr. Xu was a little confused: "I can't make the decision. I have to consult with people from all walks of life to give the military leader an answer."
Luo Yu said again: "The enemy army is powerful and is approaching in an instant. I can't harm the villagers. What's more, I also have something to ask for from the villagers."
Then he pointed at the female soldiers: "Look, these girls are all injured and cannot move on their own. They cannot go up the mountain. I want all the villagers to work as coolies and carry them to Weize Pass. We can look back on our own later."
Thank you very much, this will not only help the villagers avoid disaster, but also solve the urgent needs of our army, and we can also get a considerable sum of money, killing three birds with one stone, what do you think?"
After listening to Luo Yu's words, Mr. Xu thought for a while and said: "The military leader said it politely. I will go and tell them now. But how to lift people up, does the military leader have any concerns?"
Luo Yu said: "Time is tight and there is no time to make a stretcher. The slightly injured will walk by themselves, and the disabled will be supported by one person. The seriously injured will have to be carried on a stretcher."
Mr. Xu asked in confusion: "What is a stretcher?"
Luo Yu then remembered that the word "stretcher" hadn't appeared in this era, but he couldn't remember what to call it for a while. In his haste, he wisely said: "Use the bed board, fix the injured person on the bed board with linen cloth, and then put two punches on both ends of the bed board.
Make a small hole, tie the linen cloth through it, and place the linen on the shoulders when carrying people. This saves people and effort, what do you think?"
After hearing this, Mr. Xu nodded hurriedly and said: "Good idea, I will ask people to prepare now. Can the military commander let the slightly injured go first? It will save a lot of time. This mountain road is not easy to walk. Some places are only two or three feet tall."
It is wide, and the bed board needs to be narrowed to pass, which will take a lot of time!"
Luo Yu accepted the instruction and called Qiu'er, who had just bandaged his injured left hand, and said, "Sister Qiu, is it okay for you to lead the team first?"
Qiu'er said: "No problem!"
Seeing the slightly injured Detachment of Women who set out first under the leadership of two guides slowly go away, Luo Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief. There was no news from Li Xiuning, and he didn’t know what was going on? Just as he was about to go over and ask, he saw Zhang Yangfei from a distance.
Run over here.
He came to Luo Yu and saluted: "Instructor, the enemy has thousands of troops coming, and we really can't stop them. You'd better take them up the mountain quickly!"
Luo Yu was surprised and said: "Why are there so many people here? After you have set up the trap, withdraw them all. Don't make unnecessary sacrifices. There are still more than a hundred wounded people, and they can go up the mountain soon."
Zhang Yang said happily: "The instructor has a solution?"
Luo Yu patted him on the shoulder and said angrily: "Don't worry, deal with foreigners as harshly as you can!"
Zhang Yang accepted the promise, turned around and left quickly. It seemed that the Tun-Mongolian coalition forces would have many more innocent souls.
Yang Man saw Luo Yu's eyes full of anger and couldn't help but shudder after hearing those emotionless words. Don't offend anyone in the future. Luo Yu can do anything if he is cruel.
Li Xiuning finally completed the treatment. After the doctor went out, he said to Luo Yu who was guarding the door: "I'm lucky to have fulfilled my mission. The girl is no longer seriously ill, but she still needs to drink the medicine. Here, here is the prescription. Go to the drug store to get it.
, there are cooking methods on it.”
Luo Yu bowed deeply and asked, "I wonder if Mr. Gao's surname is? This rescue is like kindness to the younger generation. Today, I have nothing to gain. I will pay you a lot of money when the younger generation escapes from danger."
The doctor smiled and said: "It is a doctor's bounden duty to save lives and heal the wounded. If you meet him, you are destined to meet him. I don't have a surname, so I won't mention it."
Luo Yu said: "I have something to explain to you, sir. Due to our army's mistake, we led the enemy troops to your area. To avoid unnecessary casualties, the whole town had to go up the mountain to escape. My husband refused to tell me my name, and I didn't dare to."
I’m forcing it, but sir, you have to go up the mountain, this is non-negotiable.”
The doctor was not angry and said again: "I appreciate your kindness. Let's go to the drug store to grab some medicine and follow everyone up the mountain. By the way, you must be careful when carrying the baby girl and don't move too violently, otherwise,
The wound is open, and it’s hard for the gods to save it." After saying that, he walked quickly towards the medicine shop.
Luo Yu hurriedly went in to see Li Xiuning, and saw that her face had turned red and her breathing was much calmer, and he finally felt relieved.
However, a simple stretcher must be made to carry her to the mountain to be considered successful. Li Xiuning's danger has not yet completely passed.
After the stretcher was ready, the doctor came over with the medicine. This time he said: "Take one dose at a time, boil three bowls of water until one bowl, take one in the morning and evening every day, avoid spicy and sour food, remember?"
Luo Yu said: "Thank you sir, I will remember this."
The doctor said: "By the way, I am Li Shizhen."
Luo Yu looked at him in astonishment and was speechless. Why is this medicine sage in this remote town? Does he have the same name as that one? But the same name cannot also have superb medical skills. This time he hit the treasure and recruited him.
How many fewer people will die in the army?
Just as he was about to speak, a shout of death came from the direction of Xiyang. Without further delay, he cupped his hands towards Li Shizhen and said, "Mr. Li, I will ask for advice another day. You can follow them up the mountain first!"
Exactly:
It is difficult to gain a foothold when flying over thousands of mountains, and there are no rules for killing enemies in special battles.
Liao was seriously injured and met a miracle doctor, and the road was smooth before the pass.
