Chapter 161 Suppressing Bandits (1)
During the period when Jiang Jichen's injury had not yet healed, Jiang An became his little tail, following him wherever he went.
At the school, the little girl went to the teacher to ask for leave.
She said that her father was injured and she had no wife, so she was all alone and pitiful, and only she, her little cotton-padded jacket, could take care of her!
Filial piety is the most important virtue. The old man was so moved that he waved his hand and approved it!
Li Xingsang covered his face.
Master, as the prince of Zhenguo, even if you don’t have a wife, you still have subordinates and servants!
Besides, a five-year-old girl can at most serve as a walking stick for the prince.
The little girl ran away happily and waved her fat paws to her classmates who seemed reluctant but were actually envious.
"Goodbye~"
……
Today, Jiang Jichen is going to the military camp to handle official business.
He was holding the reluctant Xie Yunshan and just walked to the gate of the mansion when he heard Jiang An running over from behind, shouting in a sticky voice,
"Wait a minute, An An~"
The little girl didn't even change out of her tight-fitting martial arts training clothes, and her eyes were full of cuteness and innocence.
She ran to Jiang Jichen's warhorse and hugged the horse's legs, "An An wants to go too!"
The horse was also well behaved. It bared its mouth as if laughing. It lowered its head to press against Jiang An's head and neighed twice, as if in agreement.
Seeing that the little girl looked like she was going to lie on the ground if you don't agree, the old father quickly called her over.
"Okay, I'll let you go, come here quickly..."
"Junfeng hasn't washed for a few days, it's dirty."
Warhorse Junfeng: “Chichi yichi…”
I didn't understand what was being said, but I felt that the insults were very dirty.
Jiang Jichen ignored its madness, took his daughter away and turned around, but there was no sign of Xie Yunshan there.
General Xie: "My Lord, let's go!"
I don't know when he got on the horse, pulled the reins, and looked full of energy.
The corners of Jiang Jichen's mouth twitched. He and Junfeng were both crazy...
In the main camp of the National Protection Army, a scout ran back to the camp. The small flag in his hand was stained with blood, and his dark and thin face was also covered in blood.
He shouted hoarsely, "Open the camp gate!"
The soldiers on both sides removed the tripping posts, and he headed towards the tent of military advisor Hu Yan.
"military adviser!"
Before the horse stopped, the scout fell to the ground exhausted.
Hu Yan came out of the tent with his eyebrows furrowed.
He clearly saw blood stains under the scout.
"Someone, call the military doctor!"
"Yes!"
Hu Yan gathered up his long sleeves and helped the man into the tent together with the generals who came after hearing the news. "Where is Hei Jia who was in the same team with you?"
Scout: "We encountered a group of bandits burning and killing people in Shili Village, which is close to the border of the three countries."
They originally planned to send two people back to the camp to report, and the remaining eight people stayed behind to fight the bandits, but they were ambushed before they got close.
A team of scouts tried their best, but only he was sent back.
He grabbed Hu Yan with his bloodstained hands and said in a sorrowful voice, "Commander-in-Chief...Commander-in-Chief has been captured."
As he rode away on his horse, he looked behind him.
The lieutenant general who loved to tease him the most on weekdays...the lieutenant general who picked him up and raised him was strangled by the thieves with a horse rope around his neck and dragged forward.
His eyes were bloodshot and as he looked at himself, he silently mouthed the words, "Run!"
"There are 20 to 30 bandits in total, heading...towards the northeast direction outside Shili Village..."
Hu Yan held the wound that was bleeding again due to his movement, "Stop talking!"
He turned around and shouted, "Where's the military doctor!"
Hu Yan knew him, the youngest of the Eighth Light Cavalry Battalion...
The old fox's eyes were moist and hot. This child must...must not die!
The tent curtain was lifted, and Huo Lang came in carrying a military doctor. "Hurry up, show him!"
The military doctor didn't care about being dizzy and quickly opened the medicine box and used scissors to cut the cloth around the youngest brother's wound.
It was also at this time that his wounds truly appeared before everyone’s eyes.
The youngest's abdomen was cut by a long knife, a piece of his intestines was exposed, and blood gushed out with his breathing.
Seeing this, the military doctor stopped.
Hu Yan grabbed his outer robe and said, "Why stop? Heal me!"
"Cough cough... cough cough..."
Huo Lang held his arm, hesitant to speak, "Old fox..."
How can I live with such injuries?
Hu Yan hunched his back, held Huo Lang's arm for support, and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "No matter what the result is, we have to try."
What if...
Military doctor: "Hot water, wine, branding iron, and fire!"
He poured Ma Fei San into the youngest child's mouth and on his wound.
The youngest one had lost all his responsiveness and couldn't even swallow, so the military doctor had someone press his acupuncture points and inject Ma Fei San into his body with water.
The military doctor heated the brand until it turned red, took a deep breath, and muttered, "Let's give it a try!"
Whether he can survive or not really depends on the child's luck...
After saying that, he pressed the iron brand to the wound. There was a crackling sound, and the youngest one was still convulsing in pain even though he was unconscious.
The wound was so big that after a few times it looked like it had been washed away by water.
Although the wound was no longer bleeding, the person was still breathing weakly.
After carrying him to the bed, the military doctor breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Whether he can wake up or not depends on himself..."
Hu Yan has not forgotten that another lieutenant was taken away by the thieves.
He looked at the youngest child, who had his eyes closed, and stuffed a crumpled safety bag into the child's hand.
"You have to wake up and live with their share!"
After leaving these words, Hu Yan turned and left the tent.
When no one was looking, the youngest's fingers holding the safety bag trembled slightly, and I don't know if he heard it...
The usually gentle military advisor's white shirt was stained with blood. He had a stern face and a cold expression on his face. "Huo Lang, mobilize the first cavalry battalion and the first infantry battalion to train the troops in the martial arts training ground."
Huo Lang agreed at first, walked out two or three steps and then turned back, "No need to report to the prince?"
Hu Yan: "The prince will come to inspect the army today, he will allow it."
Huo Lang nodded, "Okay, then Meng Bu Ren and I will lead the troops!"
The two battalions that the old fox mobilized were the strongest in the National Protection Army. Not to mention that they could defeat a hundred people alone, even five or six people could not get close to them.
In fact, it would not take two battalions or four thousand men to suppress the bandits.
But they shouldn't kill the soldiers in the National Protection Army!
The child was raised by the lieutenant general and his fellow campers by cutting back on food and clothing. He grew from a little bean sprout into an independent young man. They are like family!
"Hu Yan, what happened?"
Jiang Jichen, who had just arrived at the military camp, heard his conversation with Huo Lang, but did not stop Huo Lang from going to mobilize people.
Jiang Jichen glanced at Hu Yan, who was covered in blood, with a cold expression.
He held his daughter by his side and walked straight towards the tent.
When Hu Yan saw him, his tense nerves relaxed for a moment. He did not have time to apologize for his private mobilization of troops and repeated the whole matter to Jiang Jichen.
The prince lifted the curtain and glanced at the child lying on the couch, whose life or death was unknown. Without turning back, he ordered Guan Yan, "Prepare armor for me."
He was going to personally raze that den of thieves!
Hu Yan: "My Lord, the wound on your arm hasn't healed yet..."
Jiang Jichen didn't care. It was common for him to go to the battlefield with injuries when he was fighting in the past.
Xie Yunshan also tried to dissuade him, "I'll go too, Your Majesty, you just wait in the camp."
"I'll even scatter my ashes for them!"
Tuanzi was short, and even by leaning over he could see the youngest one, who had his eyes closed and his chest rising and falling slightly.
She remembered him, the boy who was dragged to compare heights with wheat on his way back from suppressing the Shang and Nanzhao Rebellions...
Her eyes were bright and her childish voice was firm, "An An is going too!"
She raised her head and met Jiang Jichen's eyes, "Dad is injured, An An will go for him!"
Before Jiang Jichen could say anything to refuse, he heard the little girl say, "He must really want to bring the lieutenant general back..."
"An An, bring it back for him!"
Help him bring his loved ones back.
