Chapter 530: General, are we brave?
On the vast grassland, the grass has become a little dry, and some grass has even turned yellow.
The wind blowing around my ears is getting stronger and stronger!
Gu Nanxi and tens of thousands of troops rushed towards Yunzhou.
There was the sound of hooves and the dust was flying.
Gu Nanxi's eyes were blurry when she saw the familiar city in the distance.
Xiaobai seemed to recognize that that was home, and his hooves jumped very fast.
When she was half a kilometer away from Fuming Town, Gu Nanxi slowed down.
The land here is dyed crimson with blood.
The corpses of the Tatars were left exposed in the wilderness, with vultures circling in the sky.
There was an unpleasant rotten smell in the air.
Gu Nanxi tightened her grip on the reins, the battle was so fierce!
Gu Nanxi speeded up slightly.
The bluestone brick wall is full of holes and traces of gold juice.
Gu Nanxi's heart kept falling. She seemed to have seen traces of explosives on the city wall.
Most of Yunzhou's explosives were taken away by him, and the rest were substandard explosives.
Did the defenders even use explosives? How are they used?
The city gate is wide open, and Dingbei Road is in tatters, but it has been cleaned very well.
Gu Nanxi rode her horse and entered the city gate.
Su Yunyan and the people of Fuming Town knelt on both sides of the road and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Welcome to the general!"
Gu Nanxi, Boss Li, Old Man Geng, and all the cavalrymen behind him were silent.
All the people who came to greet them were girls and boys, not a single boy.
Gu Nanxi's eyes started from Su Yunyan and swept over one by one.
They were neatly dressed and their faces and hands had obviously been washed.
But everyone is hurt!
"Is everyone in the three towns here?" Gu Nanxi's voice was hoarse, and she looked at the sparse team, confused for a moment.
Su Yunyan's eyes were a little hollow: "General Qi, except for the seriously injured members, all are here."
Gu Nanxi's eyes darkened.
The last time I came back from a victory, it was so lively that the entire Fuming Town could hardly contain it.
Now, the town is almost four-fifths empty!
Gu Nanxi opened her mouth and took in big breaths, feeling heartbroken beyond measure!
Gu Nanxi endured her grief, got off her horse, walked to Su Yunyan, and helped her up: "Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen."
Wow!
All officers and soldiers dismounted.
Su Yunyan stood up and introduced the girls beside her to Gu Nanxi one by one.
"This is Mrs. Wu from Dongyang Street, Baoningfang, Fuming Town. There are five sisters in her family. In the street fighting, the five sisters killed seven enemies and four died in the battle."
Madam Wu held four bloody belts in her hands and was about to kneel down to salute Gu Nanxi.
Gu Nanxi stopped her, straightened her armor, and solemnly saluted Mrs. Wu!
The tears that Mrs. Wu was holding back burst instantly. She bit her lip, straightened her back, and accepted Gu Nanxi's gift on behalf of her sisters.
Su Yunyan introduced the second one.
"This is the granddaughter of Douhua Granny's family in Huaishuo Town. Her father was drafted into the army. When the west city gate was breached, Douhua Granny held a pack of explosives and died together with the Tatars who entered the city. Her mother was defending the city wall and fought with the attackers. The Tatars in the city fought to the death and died after being hit by five arrows.”
The little girl was only four or five years old, with two big eyes embedded in her palm-sized face, and her eyes were full of fear and uneasiness.
The little girl clutched her grandmother's sachet and her mother's handkerchief tightly, as if this was the only way to feel a little sense of security.
Hearing Su Yunyan's introduction, the little girl sobbed softly, like a little beast that had lost the protection of its mother, which made her heart ache.
Gu Nanxi knelt down and said softly: "Little lady, what's your name?" "I don't have a name, my grandmother and my mother-in-law call me dead girl Pianzi."
The little girl twitched and said in self-disgust: "Is it because I am not a son-in-law that my grandmother and mother-in-law let me hide in the tunnel and forbid me to come out?"
Gu Nanxi touched the little girl's head: "Of course not. Your grandmother and mother-in-law hope that you can live a good life for them."
The little girl raised her head and asked thoughtfully: "Then can I keep my father's surname from now on? Even if I get married, I don't want to change my surname. My grandmother always hopes that my mother will give me another brother, so that the Sun family will not be broken. Root. But I am the only one left in our family.”
Gu Nanxi agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I allow you to get married without changing your surname. When you grow up, you can set up your own female household and give birth to a husband. If you don't marry, you can also adopt orphans. You Think slowly, don’t rush.”
After comforting the little girl, Gu Nanxi stood at attention and saluted!
Su Yunyan continued to introduce.
"Wu Da Niu of the Detachment of Women, killed five enemies and thirteen enemies!"
"Mrs. Huaishuo Zhenxia, in order to protect the wounded, used herself as bait to lure away the Tatars."
"Hongfu Opera Troupe Gongsun Siniang rescued 103 wounded people."
"Medical School..."

The introduction continued until dark, when Mr. Li held up a torch to illuminate the scene for everyone.
Su Yunyan's introduction was unhurried. She kept everyone in mind and engraved everyone's efforts in her heart.
Gu Nanxi listened carefully and did not discount every salute.
A long fire dragon winds its way through Fuming Town.
Some of the cavalry returned to the city wall and began to defend the city.
Another group of people followed Gu Nanxi, measuring this familiar yet unfamiliar city with their footsteps.
Pass through the North City Gate, walk along Dingbei Road, and walk straight ahead, which is the center of Fuming Town.
There are many wounded soldiers lying densely here, and broken arms and legs are very common.
They howled and screamed in pain.
The nurses at the medical school stamped their feet anxiously: "There is no medicine at all, no anti-inflammatory drugs, no anesthetics in the hospital!"
"Be patient for a moment. This is the alcohol refined by Fang Langjun. The amount is not large. Use it first to treat the injured!"
Some of the wounded had their intestines and stomachs flowing all over the floor, but they kept looking in the direction of the city gate. Their voices were so low that no one could hear them: "Is the general back? Are we victorious?"
The fire dragon's head stopped in front of the wounded.
Under everyone's gaze, Gu Nanxi held the wounded man's hand and shouted loudly: "We are back! We won! We took back the Sixteenth State of Youyun! We drove the Tatars out of the grassland!"
Thunderous applause suddenly broke out from all around.
The wounded who were groaning began to cry and laugh.
The nurses were exhausted, hugging their heads and crying.
The wounded man Gu Nanxi was holding tilted his head and smiled, completely lifeless.
In front of everyone, Su Yunyan stood up and asked loudly: "General, are we brave?"
In the darkness, those eyes reflected the moonlight and firelight, as well as Gu Nanxi's figure.
Gu Nanxi held back her tears and replied loudly: "Very brave!"
"Very brave!"
"Very brave!"
Tens of thousands of troops shouted together, and even the defenders on the city wall shouted at the top of their lungs.
The word "very brave" resounded throughout Fuming Town, throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty, and throughout heaven and earth!
