Chapter 125 Victory in the first battle

On the third day, 100,000 cavalrymen led by General Shen attacked the city for a day and a night, finally defeating the Hu people and retaking the first city.

As Gu Changfeng had guessed, the Scythians had indeed withdrawn. It was unknown whether they had a grudge with the Hu people. Even the food and soldiers in the city were far less than in the previous battles. Without the Scythians' advice, the Hu people's combat capability plummeted. During this siege, it rained heavily, and the fire oil could not burn at all. The "gun" used in the last battle seemed to have been taken away by the Scythians. All the soldiers knew the terrain inside the city.

The right time, right place and right people have all come together, victory in this battle is inevitable.

The casualties of the soldiers were much better than in previous battles, but the military medical department was still crowded with people. General Shen couldn't bear it and sent Lieutenant General Xue and his son Xue Zhong to visit them. Gu Changfeng and Shen Mingjue did not participate in the battle this time due to their lack of experience, but stayed in logistics in case of emergency.

Gu Changfeng complained to Xiaowo: "I really didn't expect General Shen to not let me play. Let me tell you, I even thought about how to use the cards in my backpack."

Xiao Wo thought, isn't it a good thing that I didn't go? Who would have thought that the Scythians would withdraw their troops this time? If they hadn't withdrawn their troops, wouldn't your life be in danger if you went again?

[General Shen is also thinking about you. You know you don't know anything, but you want to go to the battlefield. Isn't this just asking for death? ]

"That's true. Having said that, I feel itchy inside when I see those soldiers charging forward bravely. When can I conquer this land like them?"

[I think you have to train for at least a year or so before General Shen agrees to take you to the battlefield. After all, you are a royal relative, and if something goes wrong, he can't bear the responsibility.]

Gu Changfeng was surprised and said, "A year or so? That's so long! I've only been here for five years in total, and I guess there won't be anything serious to do in the last six months. So, I can only go to the battlefield for three years, which is not enough for me to enjoy myself."

They were chatting so enthusiastically that when Shen Mingjue came over, Gu Changfeng was still struggling with Xiao Wo in his mind and completely ignored him.

Shen Mingjue became a little angry when he saw his arrogant look. He had clearly said two days ago that he would try hard to seek his forgiveness, but today he returned to his normal state. Men's words really can deceive people.

"Cough cough." Shen Mingjue coughed lightly.

Xiao Wo immediately signaled to Gu Changfeng.

"...Mingjue, when did you come?" Gu Changfeng came to his senses and found Shen Mingjue sitting opposite him, and asked curiously.

Shen Mingjue: "..."

Gu Changfeng also felt that something was wrong and scratched his head: "General Shen sent you here, right? Did something happen?"

Shen Mingjue then spoke: "It's nothing, the battle is over anyway. The general asked us to go clean up the battlefield. Bring 30 people with usable weapons, armor and other things. Send someone else to clean up the streets."

Gu Changfeng thought, what are we waiting for, let's go now. He immediately stood up and was about to go out, but was stopped by Shen Mingjue.

Gu Changfeng: "?"

"Are you going like this?" Shen Mingjue glanced at him, "You are going to lead the troops anyway, so you should at least wear some decent clothes."

"Oh, okay, wait for me, I'll be there soon." Gu Changfeng had been in the logistics department and had no chance to go to the battlefield, so he was still wearing his regular clothes. On the other hand, Shen Mingjue had put on his armor, looking like a young hero.

"Well, go ahead. I'll go and bring the soldiers over."

The action just now was really embarrassing, and Gu Changfeng's face turned red with shame. When did he become so unreliable, reckless and stupid in front of the other party?

He did not delay any longer and returned to his tent, where he hurriedly changed his clothes, put on his armor, combed his hair, washed his face with cold water, and pushed the door open after he was much more sober.

Shen Mingjue had already brought thirty soldiers with him, three in a row and ten in a column, and stood at the door of his tent.

"Greetings, Prince!" all the soldiers said in unison.

"Everyone, get up." Gu Changfeng walked up to Shen Mingjue, explained today's events, and then led the troops into the city with Shen Mingjue.

Because of the heavy rain, the roads in the city were slippery and difficult to walk on. After a fierce battle, the Hu people suffered heavy casualties. The corpses on the ground piled up and were drenched by the rain, making the entire ground look red.

The thirty soldiers each went to pick up intact weapons and armor, and Gu Changfeng and Shen Mingjue were no exception.

In order to give the other party a better impression, Gu Changfeng no longer had the intention to tease him and worked honestly. But he didn't want to be too far away from the other party. There were about two or three people between him and Shen Mingjue, and they all lowered their heads to pick up the things.

This post-disaster work was simple and hard at the same time, but fortunately the Hu army did not have tens of thousands of people this time, and the things left in the city were quickly picked up.

Gu Changfeng took the initiative to say to Shen Mingjue: "I will ask them to move the bodies away, and you organize the cleanup of the streets." He took the initiative to take on the dirtiest job.

Shen Mingjue nodded and said, "Today's weather is really bad. Let's wait until tomorrow when it's clear and burn them all together."

Gu Changfeng knew he was talking about the corpses, "Don't worry."

However, things did not go as planned. There was actually one person who was unconscious among the corpses. He woke up in a trance when his weapons were first picked up, but he kept it to himself until Gu Changfeng and the others transported the corpses to a place. Then, he unexpectedly stabbed the nearest soldier's neck with the poisoned dagger hidden in the scales on his clothes.

For a moment, blood gushed out. Gu Changfeng reacted the fastest and stabbed the man to death with the sword he carried with him.

But unfortunately, the poison on the dagger was very strong. The moment the Hu man fell to the ground, the soldier vomited black blood and died.

Gu Changfeng was very close to the soldiers. If the Hu people had been a little biased when assassinating him, he might have been the one to die.
