princess is everywhere

Chapter 24 War Horse

It was the first time for Xu Mu to lead the army alone, with a bit of excitement and a bit of apprehension, and his whole person became a lot more serious.

Unlike the previous battles with General Xia, there were five tribes on the way of the army this time.The largest of these five tribes is 3000 people, and the smallest is 500 people. More importantly, the tribes are not far apart. If one of them is attacked rashly, it will easily alarm the other tribes.In this way, it will not be easy to solve the matter as easily as before, so General Xu decided to divide his troops into five groups.

Xu Mu is just a young general, if not for her different status, she should be a soldier at the bottom at her age.Now that she was able to lead the army, she naturally led the fewest troops to attack the weakest tribe.

Weak tribes occupy the worst resources, and the tribe Xu Mu is going to attack is naturally the most remote.Therefore, after the troops were divided into five groups, the Fifth Route Army had to start attacking together according to the agreed time, so Xu Mu had to lead his people to set off ahead of time.

After another day and night of running, Xu Mu and his party finally arrived at their destination under the guidance of the scouts.

At that time, the sky was dark, and the twilight was close, and the people who went out to graze had already returned from driving their cattle and sheep.A bonfire was lit in the small tribe, some people were cooking and roasting cattle and sheep, some were talking and laughing loudly, and young girls and boys were singing and dancing... I don’t know if today is a special day, but this small tribe seems to be quite happy , I don't know that the danger is already approaching.

Faintly, a scent of barbecue floated far away along the wind, and got into the noses of the soldiers who were eating rough dry food behind the slope.The dry food in his hand suddenly became stale, and someone whispered: "If you kill them now, maybe you can still eat some meat."

As soon as these words came out, although no one answered, the sound of swallowing saliva still rang out for a while - now it's not a troubled time, the government is still fairly clear, and the life of the border soldiers can be regarded as good.But even so, it's just a matter of food and clothing, and eating meat is a luxury.Otherwise, Anyang would have turned into a rabbit and a carrier pigeon the first two times, and he wouldn't have been almost roasted.

Now smelling the smell of meat, many people are aroused by gluttons, almost forgetting their current situation.

What Xu Mu ate was dry food, which might be finer than that of ordinary soldiers, but it was as dry and hard as gnawing sand in his mouth.She had to drink a sip of water after eating a mouthful of dry food. Hearing this, she hurriedly dispelled everyone's thoughts: "After eating the dry food, go to rest early and recharge your batteries."

Xu Mu didn't say the extra words, but these are all veterans around her, so how could she not know what she meant - recharge your batteries

It means not fighting today. If someone dares to destroy the deployment for a piece of meat, it will be disrupting the military plane and disobeying the military order. I want to know the consequences.

Everyone shut their mouths in embarrassment, and finished eating dry food without taste.

At this time, Xu Mu said again: "This tribe raises a lot of cattle and sheep. Tomorrow, when the war is over, we can roast a few to celebrate."

As soon as these words came out, the originally sleepy people became energetic again.Because they were not far from the barbarian tribe, they naturally didn't dare to cheer loudly, but their eyes were shining brightly, and the desire in them was like hungry wolves.

Seeing Xu Mu's heart trembling, he silently moved his body and approached his two horses.

Mo Yu was still gnawing on the grass heartlessly, as if it had become a ruthless grass-eating machine since it set foot on the grassland.As long as Xu Mu is not riding on its back, you can see it grazing with its head down at any time, as if it will never be full.On the contrary, the white horse is always very picky when grazing, and has to choose a place that has not been stepped on.

Of course, Anyang is consciously not picky.Seeing Xu Mu approaching, she tilted her head and thought for a while, then suddenly opened her mouth and ate half of the dry food that Xu Mu had just handed to her in front of her.

The young horse's teeth are also very good, and Xu Mu can chew the dry food like sand with ease.

It was already too late when Xu Mu noticed the movement, and the rations she had when she was rescued had already been reduced by half. She took the remaining half of the dry rations and wanted to cry without tears: "Sixue, why are you grabbing everything to eat?!"

Of course the white horse didn't respond to her, chew it and swallow the dry food, the taste is not bad after all.So she turned her eyes around and landed on the remaining half of dry food.When Xu Mu saw it, he really didn't give it to her, and it didn't matter if he didn't.

****************************************************************************

This time the war started, the time had already been agreed before the division of troops, and it was set at Maochu the next day.

After the previous battle, Xu's army had learned from the experience, and when they attacked the tribe, they should do it all at once, otherwise it would be too troublesome to go back and pack up the people who went out to herd one by one.Maochu is a good time, just before dawn, most people are still asleep.Especially in such a peaceful small tribe, there is not even a night watchman, and it is easy to catch them.

A quarter of an hour earlier, the sergeant on duty behind the slope woke up his comrades.Those who woke up cleaned up in the dark, and ate something to fill their stomachs, until everyone got on their horses, and a fire finally lit up in the darkness.

It's a pity that the tribe not far away is still in a deep sleep, and no one has discovered this last chance.

Moments later, boom

The sound of rumbling horseshoes broke through the silence of the night, and then the screams and shouts of killing became one...

Xu Mu hesitated before giving the order.She still remembers the massacre of men, women, and children when she followed General Xia to attack the Hu tribe last time.She wasn't sure that she would be able to be ruthless after experiencing it once, but she knew that there was not much time left for her to grow.So the hesitation was only for a moment. When the order was given, she finally chose to lead the way.

Then the blood suddenly appeared, and the field was wailed, and the unsuspecting night attack was easier than the previous frontal attack.

It took almost a quarter of an hour before Xu Mu led people to kill each other in this small tribe... Fire flashed in her eyes, blood was stained on her body, but the hand that swung the knife was steady without trembling.

This was another outright killing, but the previous time Xu Mu stood by and watched, but this time she personally went into battle.

More and more barbarians fell, and gradually only his comrades were left beside him. Xu Muqiang finally let out the breath he was holding on to.She stopped and looked at the corpses of the old and the young on the ground, her complexion was not very good.

After a while, there were no more living people in this small tribe, and the soldiers began to make up their swords.

Xu Mu once again felt the unbearable smell of blood. She said to the left and right: "The battlefield can be cleaned up. After cleaning, let's kill a few cattle and sheep to celebrate. But we need to move quickly, we have to join the army."

Hearing that the little general kept his promise, the meat-hungry soldiers were so happy that their murderous aura faded a bit.

Everyone is very happy, and they can still eat meat after winning the battle.Only Xu Mu thought of those terrified and desperate eyes just now, and still felt uncomfortable in his heart, and didn't want to stay long in this place full of corpses.

She pinched the horse's belly and urged Mo Yu to leave.

The battle ended too quickly. The sneak attack started before dawn, but when it really ended, it was still dark.Only a faint whiteness could be seen in the sky, presumably it was not far from dawn.

Xu Mu left the camp on horseback, intending to clean up her mood—now that she is leading this army, it is not easy to show weakness in front of her soldiers—but she walked, taking advantage of the gradually brightening of the sky In the dim light, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a small figure running away in the darkness, and the speed of running away was not slow.

The little general's heart trembled immediately, her heart softened, but she knew what she should do, and immediately shouted: "Who is it?!"

The figure in the darkness froze for a moment

, When he reacts and wants to run again, how can his two legs run better than Mo Yu's four legs?

The sound of "da da" horse's hooves blocked the figure like a reminder, and Xu Mu could barely see it clearly when he got close. It really was a barbarian child.The child looked seven or eight years old, and was in a state of distress. He didn't know how he slipped out of the camp under the eyes of so many soldiers.But not only was he small and he didn't have a horse, but if he ran out like this, he was actually close to death.

Xu Mu still had dried and uncleaned blood on her hand. Seeing the child, she subconsciously put her hand on the handle of the knife, but didn't draw it out right away. In this situation, facing such a child, she was inexplicably embarrassed. Do not do it.

However, Xu Mu didn't move, but the found child spoke, but he was babbling in the barbarian's language, which Xu Mu couldn't understand.

The two confronted each other, seeing Xu Mu remained silent for a long time, the child said something again.However, chickens and ducks are always talking to chickens and ducks, but the child was eager to talk, and instead of taking the opportunity to run away, instead of talking, he moved a few steps closer.

Xu Mu didn't take those few steps to heart, she frowned and fixedly looked at the child who appeared unexpectedly.Although she didn't know what the other party was talking about, but listening to the other party's immature voice, she didn't really want to kill someone.

Enough people died at her hands tonight, maybe they should just find a reason to capture him alive?

It's just that just as she thought this way, she unexpectedly met the child's eyes—there was no fear in those eyes, nor the helplessness she thought, but full of deep-seated hatred!

Xu Muhuang was stunned for a moment, and immediately became alert.

But before she could draw the knife, the child who was already approaching showed the dagger first.

The scene was a little ridiculous, the dagger in the child's hand was not as long as an adult's palm, and when he stabbed over with the dagger, it seemed like a child playing.But it was not, the child who approached step by step and showed his fangs really wanted to kill someone!

This blow came very suddenly, but it was still very difficult to hurt someone.Not to mention that Xu Mu's skills are not comparable to children, but only to say that she is sitting on horseback, and she is not something that a seven or eight-year-old child can easily hurt.Taking a step back, there is Mo Yu as a war horse, and he cooperates with his master very tacitly. When he sees someone showing a knife, he subconsciously raises his hoof to kick.

It's just that neither Mo Yu nor Xu Mu expected that the child's reaction was so quick. Seeing the horse's hooves raised, he immediately rolled to hide.Then, without giving Mo Yu any time to react, he slashed Mo Yu's horse's leg with a backhand.

The child's strength is just ordinary, and the strength lies in

Quickly chopped Mo Yu with a knife, and the wound was not too deep.But the horse still neighed in pain, and the child turned around and ran away without hesitation.

Mo Yu saw it and wanted to chase him, but he was a little limping when he ran, so Xu Mu finally calmed down and threw the knife, which hit the child's back heart.

The author has something to say: Moyu (Tuogu): Ruxue, I can't do it anymore, the master will leave it to you, you have to take her to live a good life!

Anyang (...): You are a horse, there are so many dramas.
