The camp is not big. It’s a small stronghold here.
Edgar the Great Tiger just brought more than 300 fleeing townspeople here. Unexpectedly, he was touched by a cavalry regiment. The main force of the rebels is not here, and the infantry roots here are no match for those well-trained and well-equipped cavalry.
Here, the valley is the deepest part of the mountain, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the only exit is blocked by the Lord’s cavalry.
Everyone can’t escape and fight to the death.
Watching those young soldiers around him fall down one by one, Edgar will even die here. Although he was scratched by a knight’s rib, he wanted to kill more lords before he died, and he has been fighting on the battlefield.
He didn’t expect to meet Elvid here, and this enthusiastic magician actually sent his followers to save a large number of people on his side.
He was also a wounded man with a rib injury before lying in the tent for treatment by Surdak.
Surdak squatted beside him, wrapped him in blood-soaked sheets and cut him, while curiously asking Dahu, "You just hid your identity in Tacalai town to bring these children out?"
Edgar Hu was unusually pale, and there was too much blood, and a burst of dizziness hit him. He dared not sleep. It is said that many companions slept at this time and never woke up.
Edgar is not afraid of death, but there is still a chance to live …
"Our camp supplies are very scarce, and we can’t take advantage of the virtual strength of Tacalai town to almost kill and grab some supplies back." Dahu said weakly, "We seldom kill civilians when attacking the town, and we don’t want the nobles to resist. We have no grudges and we are willing to let them go, but we have to take away the property. After all, we have to live."
His voice is a little low.
"After this battle, the Lord’s army needs to appease the soldiers. They will search for all the main objects in the town. Of course, even if there is a Lord, they will not let go. If the owner dies, it will become the main object."
"The nobles are better, but this kind of thing is almost impossible for everyone in the town. It happens every time."
Dahu rubbed his bad hair, but it touched the wound, making him gasp in air.
"Bring them out in the hope that they can live?" Nonsense
Surdak felt that what he said was a bit grandiose, but he didn’t believe this rhetoric.
Dahu embarrassedly wanted to smile, but it was a pity that the pain in the wound caused him to be involved in a corner of his mouth. He honestly lay in a wooden box and paved a diagnosis and treatment bed. "Besides, we rebels also need fresh blood here. These children are our future …"
Surdak looked outside and saw many young soldiers outside through the gap in the curtain. He asked, "Won’t your soldiers raise more children?"
Edgar Hu shook his head and said with a wry smile, "If you can’t feed yourself, you can’t raise any children."
Then Dahu said, "We often have to fight with the Lord’s army. If we have to be careful to raise a child every time in rolled sheets or simply have children in the camp, how can these soldiers fight hard with the Lord’s army in the battlefield …?"
"What we pursue is freedom and faith …"
Surdak continued to ask, "What do you believe in?"
Edgar Hu looked forward to the future and said with some erratic eyes, "Of course, it is necessary to overthrow the Lord’s army in mcdonnell, so we can give all the poor people a piece of land …"
Surdak almost said Internacional. He paused for a moment before saying, "Well, that’s a good idea. Although it’s a good idea, your strength is really too average."
Edgar Hu used to smile and say, "It will get better slowly after it is gone."
Chapter 969 Mermaid
Probably this kind of fighting scene has been used by rebel fighters in Si Tong.
After cleaning the battlefield, they lit two huge fires at dusk.
The firewood soon burned and puffed with smoke. The fire and smoke swallowed up all the bodies in the firewood pile, and there was a disgusting smell in the air.
There is no wind in the valley, which makes the smell of this resin oil more intense.
Run out to investigate the rebel scouts ran back to report that the cavalry battalion chose to stay away from this mountain area overnight and did not stay nearby.
It’s completely dark, and the women and children in the camp are also responsible for making a fire to prepare dinner, even cooking horse meat. The wounded also need to drink some broth, and these dead battlefield horses belong to the Lord’s cavalry regiment
Rebel soldiers have no feelings for these horses, so they have no psychological burden to eat these horses.
They can quickly stabilize their emotions after a battle, and most rebel fighters are sitting in the camp to rest at the moment.
Several large tents were built in this camp, and more than forty simple wooden houses did not break out. Before this battle, there were almost 1,200 people in this camp, including 300 small town residents brought back from Tacalai town by Edgar Hu.
After a battle, the rebel barracks now include more than 300 wounded, leaving less than 700 people.
There was a group of rebels sitting next to the iron pot, and everyone was holding wooden bowls, and the blood was not dried up, so they fished horse meat from the soup to eat.
There was some silence in the atmosphere. A rebel soldier whispered to his companions around him
"Not today, Guy Herman Maslow. They’re all dead …"
"If it weren’t for the help of the magician’s entourage, we shouldn’t have stopped the cavalry!"
Companion took a big piece of horse meat from the wooden bowl and said vaguely
It’s quiet all around again
A young woman poured a pot of chopped horse meat into a tumbling soup pot and said, I don’t know who it was.
"Celia, sing us a song …"
The young woman sat in the crowd and said, "Then I’ll sing Scarborough …"
Immediately around to protest "don’t listen to such sad songs!" "
"That song is not as good as the red-haired girl …"
"Yes, just sing the redhead!" Everyone chimed in
Soon there were melodious songs in the camp.
Even Surdak in the tent can be clearly heard.
The wounded lying in the treatment bed also opened their eyes and closed their eyes, and their tension slowly eased.
Singing at night is probably one of the few spices in their lives.
……
Life in the rebel barracks is very hard and materials are quite scarce. Mushrooms almost grow on the old and decaying edges of the wooden houses in the camp.
This kind of log cabin forest area is very simple to build, and it needs to dig out square pits in the forest land to support a frame, and then lay some rough logs with arms, and the back of which is covered with thick moss to form a log cabin that can shelter from the wind and rain.
There are several large iron pots outside the wooden house, and the horse broth boiled inside smells faint.
Edgar Hu introduced to the magician Avid that the situation here would be even worse if the rebels had not just attacked Takalai town and obtained a lot of living materials.
Of course, most of the materials seized in Takalai town have been transported to the rear area. This camp is just a stronghold on the rebel side.
Surdak has been busy in the tent, and there are too many injured people. He almost never leaves the tent.
Just now, I had the help of Sia Surdak, and Samira joined in when she cleaned up the war.
Obviously Samira has more experience in this kind of thing. He not only keeps the wounded waiting for treatment outside the tent in line, but also makes a detailed screening of their injuries. The seriously injured number can be carried to the front.
