Chapter 152: 151. Reunion
Chapter 152 151. Reunion
The leather armor on He Boqiang's body was so damaged that even the leather makers felt a headache.
Behind him were seven evil ghost heads that made all the expeditionary soldiers drool with envy.
The heads of those evil spirits were packed in linen bags, each of them was round, and the long horns on the foreheads of some evil spirits' heads penetrated the linen bags and protruded from the inside, looking a little scary.
Although he washed briefly in the water when he crossed the Pasiedi River, there was still a strong smell of blood all over his body.
Evil ghosts often appear on the other side of the river, but the other side of the river has organized a force to resist the evil spirits. The evil spirits will often go to several ferries to carry out small-scale harassment. Once human cavalry appear, they will quickly evacuate, and they are absolutely unwilling to fight.
The evil spirits seemed to have no intention of crossing the river. Perhaps it was because the river was too wide. After a group of people crossed the Pasiedi River, they found that there were troops from the Bena Legion stationed on the other side of the river. Behind the soil **** on the bank, the swords are tense, and it seems that they are waiting for the evil spirits to chase to the other side of the river, but the evil spirits on the other side seem to have discovered these arrangements of the Bena Army. No matter how the battle on the other side is, the evil spirits The ghosts would just stop on the banks of the river.
After He Boqiang and his party crossed the river, a group of evil spirits appeared at the place where they crossed the river. The soldiers fleeing behind "thumped" and rushed into the river like ducks, but those evil spirits just stood on the bank of the river. A group of imperial warriors in the river threw large stones, smashing those warriors to death, and some of them simply lifted their corpses on the spot, and the corpses floated downstream along the river.
…
After crossing the river, it was a different scene. Obviously, there were still some corpses of imperial soldiers floating on the river, and there were still imperial soldiers struggling desperately in the river.
Seeing the heavy armored infantry regiment of the Bena Legion on the bank, He Boqiang had an illusion in his heart. The Pasiedi River is like a gate to the underworld. One side of the gate represents life, and the other side of the gate represents life. Death, those fleeing fighters hovering on the river bank can live as long as they step over.
I saw a group of warriors carrying a flat cart across the river, while the Trollope knight in front was riding on a horse, with a leg wrapped in thick gauze.
There was still an unconscious female swordsman lying on the flatbed, and there was still a bulging, round thing hanging from He Boqiang's back waist. The long cyan horns were protruding from the bag, and the soldiers stationed on the river bank would be awed and respectful Trollope knight salute.
Hathaway saw this scene in the team, and couldn't help turning her head to look at He Boqiang.
The team traveled east along the Pasiedi River Basin.
The road by the river is relatively smooth, and the flatbed truck is not so bumpy when driving.
Beatrice was in a coma for nearly a day, and in the evening, there were already signs of awakening.
Along the way, there will always be some teams of reorganized and fled expeditionary army soldiers. Many soldiers have been incorporated into these teams. There are many clerks at the gates of these resettlement camps. They will register the name tags of the soldiers on the spot, and then let them remove their armor and Weapons, and then sit quietly in the resettlement camp behind, waiting for the upcoming review and resettlement.
A slanting sun in the evening dyed half of the sky in Handanal County red.
When it was time for dinner, many resettlement camps along the way began to distribute wheat cakes and vegetable soup. Although they were many times worse than the marching rations, the soldiers of the expeditionary force who had been hungry for a day ate them hungrily. He Boqiang followed the flatbed truck and continued to Handana Go in the direction of Al County.
In the camp ahead, there are four unusually tall catapults parked, making this place look like a temporary camp for the catapult regiment.
However, it is not known exactly where these catapults were obtained from. It is definitely not the Moyunling Expeditionary Army camp. The catapults there are basically all damaged. At least hundreds of evil spirits were killed by the huge stones thrown by the catapult, and they hated the catapult even more than the bed crossbow.
John was sure that none of the catapults on the Moyunling battlefield could be completely withdrawn. He guessed that these catapults should be reinforcements from the expeditionary army camp, but they received a report of the fall of the expeditionary army camp after only walking halfway. News, probably stopped here to wait for orders from superiors.
Now that the catapult group has been found, John plans to wait in the resettlement camp for the investigation and assignment from above.
For a maintenance craftsman of a catapult, he should not be held accountable for the defeat of the war, at most he just fled the battle, but there are so many fleeing soldiers in front of him, and he is not one more, not to mention that he has a devil's head beside him , at least enough for him to make up for his mistakes.
So, he waved goodbye to Trollope Knight and He Boqiang, and then walked into the resettlement camp.
When crossing a rut, the flatbed truck bumped violently, and Beatrice, who was lying on the plank, was shaken awake. She reluctantly opened a pair of blank eyes, saw the dim yellow sky, and felt a little weak. He asked Hathaway who was beside him: "Hathaway, where is this? Is it the flame hell? The sky here is so red!"
"..." Hathaway didn't know how to answer Beatrice's question, she just smiled and shed tears, shook her head vigorously, and said to her: "Sorry, baby, I'm afraid you guessed wrong, we put you Rescued, now on the way to Handanal County."
Then she paused, looked up at the somewhat darkened sky, and then said to Beatrice: "The reason why the sky here is so red is because it is evening..."
"My God! Am I still alive?"
Beatrice wanted to struggle to sit up in disbelief, but only then did she feel severe pain all over her body, her face turned pale, and she lay down on the flatbed again.
At this time, Knight Trollope stopped Gu Bolai's horse, turned around and greeted Beatrice.
Seeing Knight Trollope, the round-faced Beatrice's eyes lit up, and she asked Hathaway quickly:
"Hathaway, tell me quickly, what have you experienced? Why do you have so many wounds on your body? Did you and Knight Trollope rescue me from the evil spirit?"
Hathaway pursed her lips, smiling beautifully in front of Beatrice, and said in a soft voice:
"Who else can I have?...Of course, there is this..."
She pointed to He Boqiang on the other side of the flatbed. Before Hathaway finished her introduction, Beatrice widened her eyes and asked He Boqiang in surprise:
"Little Duck, why are you here? Did Baron Sidney send you to protect Hathaway?"
"..."
To be honest, He Boqiang is going crazy.
Hathaway next to her coughed twice, and then re-introduced to Beatrice:
"Ahem, Beatrice, you can call him Knight of Suldak now..."
"...Sur...Little Dark Knight?"
Beatrice looked at He Boqiang with some doubts, but still greeted He Boqiang as Hathaway introduced.
The farther the flatbed car went towards Handanal County, many resettlement camps gathered along the way, perhaps due to the effect of the 'Blessed Body'. Although Beatrice was seriously injured, Hathaway was able to With the help of her, she sat up on the flatbed, and the two sat on the flatbed and whispered all the way.
At the beginning, Beatrice would keep looking at He Boqiang, but at the back, Beatrice was almost unwilling to raise her head...
At this moment, He Boqiang found a ten-meter-long magic caravan parked on the side of the road ahead. The inside of the caravan was brightly lit, and several tents were built outside the caravan. A group of young swordsmen gathered beside them. These swordsmen were both male and female. Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted excitedly:
"Hathaway, Beatrice, it's really you..."
