An unpleasant fishy smell spread all over the intestine slope. Under this foul smell, Zhao Kuo could no longer breathe normally. He felt nauseous. Zhao Kuo looked in front of him, and the diners were still collecting food.
The remains of friends. When the war is over, the losers fall to the ground forever, while the victors stand, crying for those who have passed away. The victory is hard-won, mixed with a bit of joy of being alive, and
A bit of pain in remembrance.
Zhao Kuo had been standing there, unable to move forward. The ground around him seemed to be filled with corpses, making it impossible for him to stay.
"Young Master? Are you scared to death?" At some point, the old man Ge walked up to Zhao Kuo and kicked away the corpse of the Qin man beside him. He asked angrily, and Zhao Kuo looked at him.
Asked: "Did we win?"
"It was indeed a great victory. We gained a lot. We killed..."
Zhao Kuo interrupted him and asked: "What are our casualties?" Ge looked at him deeply and then said: "I don't know where Fu Zhao is. Forty-three people died on our side, and some were seriously injured.
There are eighteen of them, and the rest are just minor injuries that are not worth mentioning..." He also had a cut on his arm and it was already wrapped up. Zhao Kuo's face became heavier and heavier.
Even with the addition of many advantages, he still led more than 200 people and still suffered nearly half of the casualties. He looked not far away. Zhao Fu was talking to a few disciples. He noticed Zhao Kuo's eyes and hurriedly
When he came to Zhao Kuo's side, there was finally a smile on his old-fashioned face. He said: "It is all your credit for such a victory. The Qin people lost hundreds of internal troops in one time, including Wu An.
Jun, I’m afraid I won’t be able to sit still.”
Zhao Kuo was not happy. He asked about Zhao Fu's casualties. Zhao Fu seemed to have noticed something. He said seriously: "Young Master, I heard that farmers make a living by farming in the fields and selling fish and salt."
People who live by traveling long distances live by walking long distances, while people who hold sharp swords live by sacrificing their lives... When they put down their farm tools and picked up their swords, they were destined to have such a day."
"If it hadn't been for Shaojun's command, I'm afraid that they would all have died here this time. You have saved hundreds of people. Is this something worth being sad about? If we don't fight with the enemy, this food will not be able to survive."
Sent to Changping, how many tens of thousands of soldiers will die on the battlefield due to hunger and defeat the Qin people? If they die in battle and the Qin people advance into Zhao, how many people will die under the Qin people's swords?"
Zhao Kuo nodded and whispered: "Thank you."
Zhao Fu shook his head hurriedly and said: "How can I dare to accept your thanks? I used to hear others talk about your military achievements, but I couldn't believe it because of Ma Fujun's words in the past. Today I know that Ma Fujun
It turned out that they were humble words back then, but I actually took them seriously! Please forgive me for my disrespect for you in the past."
"Without your help, Kuo will definitely die here..." The two chatted for a while. The diners had collected the corpses of their own people. The disposal of the corpses was also a problem. They didn't have the manpower or enough resources.
Time can send these remains back to their hometowns, but so many remains cannot be kept for too long. Zhao Kuo took matters into his own hands and dug graves for them, and the entire convoy became busy.
At this time, Li Yu came and asked: "What should be done with the corpses of those Qin people?" Someone on the side said viciously: "Just leave them here and feed the beasts!" Zhao Kuo shook his head and said, "Even if they are
The enemy should not have treated their corpses like this and buried them here."
When Zhao Fu was helping to deal with the body on the left, he looked a little surprised and looked at it many times. Then he walked to Zhao Kuo in a panic, his voice was trembling, and he said:
"I recognize these thieves and the leader."
"who are they?"
"He is Mr. Pingyuan's guest."
Zhao Kuo was silent for a moment and then said to him: "Please keep this matter in your heart and don't reveal it to anyone. I heard that Lord Pingyuan has many guests. It is inevitable that there will be spies from the Qin people. They specially found these people."
People may want to kill us and frame it on Lord Pingyuan, so please don’t tell anyone, not even Lord Pingyuan.”
Zhao Fu said with some surprise: "But who would believe that Mr. Pingyuan would take action against you? What's the point of them doing this?"
"Sometimes, you don't need to make people believe in Pingyuan Lord's evil deeds. As long as you give them an excuse to attack, someone will help them deal with Pingyuan Lord." Zhao Kuo said with emotion. After burying everyone, Zhao Kuo came out.
Several carriages came, and the injured diners were asked to sit on the carriages. They put the extra grain on the backs of the horses they were riding, and led the horses on foot. This move made the injured diners sit on the carriages.
They couldn't help crying, and no one could help but admire Zhao Kuo's kindness.
After this encounter, everyone did not dare to be careless. Fortunately, when leading the way, they were even more cautious and always observed the surroundings. However, the speed of the convoy slowed down. After passing the narrow and dangerous passage, they finally arrived.
After walking out of the mountains and rivers, when the convoy walked out of the mountains and rivers, Xing hurriedly came to report that there was a large group of people in front of them, who seemed to be his own people. This made Zhao Kuo a little confused, so he hurriedly went to observe with Xing.
Following Xing to the front, those people also hurriedly approached and could see clearly. Zhao Kuo breathed a sigh of relief. It was Li Mu who led these people to respond.
Li Mu saw Zhao Kuo, and he rushed over on horseback. Zhao Kuo walked forward with a smile. Li Mu quickly got off his horse, led the horse, and walked to Zhao Kuo's side. "Brother, long time no see, how are you?", Zhao Kuo
Kuo smiled and helped up Li Mu who was saluting, looked at him, then looked at the nearly a thousand knights behind him, and then said: "I'm fine, please get up. Well, that's right. It seems that General Lian Po values you very much."
, have you become a captain?"
Li Mu smiled sheepishly and said just now: "Brother, General Lian Po doesn't value me, he values you."
"It turns out that he didn't take the words you said to him into consideration. It wasn't until later that Di spread things about the Qin people in various camps, which made the soldiers extremely resentful of the Qin people. The morale of the soldiers soared, and they even attacked three times.
You repelled the Qin attack and captured a Qin captain! Later, the news of your gathering of 800,000 stones of food and grass reached Changping. When General Lian Po heard about it, he laughed for three days and could not close his mouth.
"
"That's why I was ordered to come with my troops to greet them in case there are Qin people attacking on the road." After saying this, Li Mu noticed the injured diners at the rear and asked, "Is it possible that someone is really attacking?"
??But I have been guarding here for a long time, and no one has entered the mountain at all!!" Ge on the side said displeasedly: "There is not only one way to enter the mountain... If I rely on your protection, I am afraid that I will already
I’m going to see Mr. Ma Fu!”
Li Mu watched the elder drive away with some embarrassment. Zhao Kuo said with a smile: "Ge has such a temper, don't blame him."
Under the escort of the knights brought by Li Mu, Zhao Fu and the knights finally felt relieved and could relax for a while. Zhao Kuo told Li Mu about the Qin people's delicate things. Li Mu listened carefully and nodded from time to time.
He shook his head and said: "That's true. General Lian Po also captured the subtleties of many Qin people. There was even a captain who was bribed by the Qin people and wanted to set fire to the food."
"General Lian Po wants to see you very much!" Li Mu rode a horse and followed Zhao Kuo, talking to him about the war. Li Mu had also participated in many wars these days, and his whole body gradually began to
Growing up, he had a good analysis of the war. Zhao Kuo listened carefully and said nothing.
Finally, the group came to Danshui. Li Mu pointed to the distance and shouted happily to Zhao Kuo:
