Chapter 615: What I See

The next day, as soon as the belly turned white, Shen Hao and his party set off again to the east.

An obvious change is that the speed of the entire cavalry has become a bit slower, and the number of cavalry protruding forward has doubled compared to before, and the formation of the guard center has become more compact.

"Entering Jianchuan is a war zone. Maybe we will encounter barbarians. Just now Captain Xu came over and said, let us not leave the brigade and go out, but stay in the formation."

Chen Zifang was much more familiar with Shen Hao than Shen Hao, and he had stayed in the army longer. Seeing some changes in Shen Hao's face, he took the initiative to explain.

"Is this the only way to enter Jianchuan? Do you need to be so careful?"

"Of course. There is nothing wrong with being careful. You and I are both laymen in military matters, just follow along." Chen Zifang smiled, but he spoke very directly. Compared with others, he didn't think Shen Hao was so difficult to get along with. It's more casual.

"What Pill Master Chen said is true. I was nervous when I first went to the front line."

"Hahaha, Mr. Shen was joking. Mr. Shen is only a mere barbarian. What is there to be nervous about? It's just that there are many rules in the army, and we don't care about marching and fighting. Taboo, when the time comes, the gain will outweigh the loss, Mr. Shen, are you right?"

"Yes, what Chen Pill Master said is to the point, we should be more cautious." Shen Hao also smiled. If people talk to him well, he will naturally listen well, and what Chen Zifang said is indeed reasonable, just like what Jiang Cheng and others reminded him before, the rules in the army are very good, it is better to talk less and watch more.

Next, Chen Zifang chirped again, wanting to use fatigue tactics to trick Shen Hao, hoping to get some new ideas. However, Shen Hao has also learned to be good, and he will hum twice from time to time, but he just doesn't say it is useful. Not all things from another world can be copied over, and what if there are too many things to be collected and asked him to explain? Do you really think you can get away with just relying on a "dead enlightenment teacher"?

But even if Shen Hao didn't say anything, he still couldn't stop Chen Zifang's talkative nature. After that, Shen Hao seemed to feel that the background sound of riding a horse should be Chen Zifang's broken words, which made him numb.

"What are those? Dead people?"

Not long after entering Jianchuan, Shen Hao saw the corpses of several barbarians on the side of the road. The death was strange, the limbs were cut off, lying on the ground, there was a big stone on the back, and there was a pool of blood splattered in the front, and fragmentary pieces of meat could be seen in the blood, which seemed to be internal organs.

"It's a homeless man from the surrounding tribes. It must have been hit by a cavalry patrol. Hehe, these barbarians are so unlucky."

"Vagabonds? Barbarians also have vagabonds?"

"Hehe, of course there are. These guys are in groups of three or five. They are all bad species driven out of various tribes, or the remnants of the tribes that were wiped out. The same clan strikes, is a guy that no one wants to see in the barbarian land.

When the military incident started before, the barbarian tribes from Jianchuan to Huzhuyuan were swept away and cleaned up very cleanly. Although there are barbarians invading here in Jianchuan, we have just entered the war zone at our current location, and all we encounter here are such homeless people. You see, they are not of the same clan, only homeless people can mix together like this. "

"Why do you want to kill like this? It seems to be a bit particular." Out of professional habits, Shen Hao was very curious about the death methods of these barbarians. It was the first time he had seen this method of chopping off limbs and crushing them to death with boulders. I feel that it doesn't take so much effort to simply kill someone.

"Oh! This seems to be called "Stone Turtle", not our method. It used to be used by the barbarians, and it was a method they used to kill the enemy. It was the most insulting. Later, it was used by the frontier army on them. Yes. These unlucky ones should have been dead for a long time, otherwise the corpses here should have been dragged away by wild beasts.

let's go. "

Shen Hao nodded, followed Chen Zifang and rode his horse forward.

With just a few corpses, Shen Hao could directly feel the hostility from the front line. This is completely different from his previous handling of cases or attacking and killing evil spirits. It is a relationship where there is no "right or wrong", only direct ethnic confrontation, life or death, and it has reached the point of killing as much as possible.

Of course, Shen Hao does not believe that all soldiers will like this so-called "stone turtle", but judging from the reaction of people like Chen Zifang, at least most people in the frontier army do not think that using "stone turtle" There's nothing wrong with killing barbarians.

Shen Hao didn't have much to do, the cruel scenes he had seen were much more tragic than this "Stone Turtle", but it was the first time he had an intuitive feeling of war in his heart.

The sense of urgency of the war is not limited only to the few unlucky corpses on the road, but also to the frequent patrols along the road and the seriously injured soldiers who were dragged back by horses and horses.

The situation at the first military depot was much worse than what Shen Hao and Chen Zifang expected before they came.

"My lord, I can't help it! There is not enough water to drink here, so there is no extra to clean the wound every day. This, this is wronged, my lord!"

Seeing that he was about to be dragged down by Chen Zifang for twenty sticks, the doctor at the military station cried and begged, feeling extremely wronged.

"I gave you an order. After the water in the river is boiled, it can be used not only for drinking but also for cleaning wounds. Why do you still lack water?"

"But my lord, there are often floating corpses in the river, which is a means of the barbarians. If you drink it, you will get sick, and if you are unlucky, you will get plague. What's the use of boiling it?"

Chen Zifang took a deep breath, he finally understood. The front line here sees dead bodies floating in the river every day, who dares to drink the water in the river? Even if a note was given later telling them to avoid water quality problems after boiling the water, who would dare?

In fact, Shen Hao can't guarantee that the water with dead bodies floating in it can be boiled to drink, and he has never said such a thing to others. But the water here is running water, flowing, and even if the dead body is floating, it will not breed too many bacteria to stay in one water area, right? After all, it is just "floating" rather than "covered".

"Army Chinese documents are orders from top to bottom. Orders have no price to talk about, and they are not allowed to be obeyed. Come here, hit ten more sticks!"

"My lord, have mercy! My lord, have mercy!"

It shouldn't be a problem for a doctor at the third level of Qi refining to receive thirty army sticks, right? It's really ugly to be called so fierce. Shen Hao thought so at first, but after a second thought, it suddenly dawned on him that perhaps he was not afraid of being beaten, but was expressing an "effect of being punished". What would happen if you didn't say a word or even showed disdain when you were dragged down?

Then a large pot was set up in this military depot and started to boil water, and the first pot was still hot, Chen Zifang blew it a little in front of the wounded and doctors in the military depot, and then took a sip Swallowed it down, and drank three bowls in a row.

"Water that has been boiled can be drunk!"
