Chapter 399: Northern Frontier

Chongming Island, east coast.

The commander of the Fuso army was already in a dilemma at this time.

Surrounded on three sides, and impossible to walk on the remaining side, in this case, they can only either rush forward or backward. There are two possibilities for rushing forward: first, successfully break through the barrier of the thousand people, occupy the center of Chongming Island, hide in the island, and use the power of the terrain to maneuver around the enemy, find a way to pass the news out, and wait for Fusang to send an army over; Second, he failed to break through the blockade, plunged into the pit himself, and the whole army was annihilated.

But there are also two possibilities to go back: either return to the ship and escape, or be stopped and then fall into the same fate.

Faced with this situation, the commander of the Fuso army finally made a very difficult decision - to continue to attack the island and attack with all his might. He would rather die than get out of his way like a lost dog with his tail between his legs.

……

On the other side, Northern Xinjiang, the battlefield between the Central Plains and Dayuan, and the camp of the Central Plains garrison.

"Xiao Daxia, this morning is really thanks to you." A general came to Xiao Feng's side, with a happy face: "If you hadn't forcibly broken through the army's obstruction and taken down the head of the enemy general, I'm afraid that today will be another hard battle." ”

Xiao Feng shook his head slightly, "It's a trivial matter, it's not enough to worry about, and I don't want to see the senseless sacrifice of the brothers who have been drinking together every day these days." ”

The general seemed to be about to say something, and suddenly a disciple of the Beggar Gang Cleaning Clothes Gang came over next to him, and said to Xiao Feng: "Xiao ...... Xiao Daxia, a young man came outside, saying that it was an old friend of yours and came to look for you. ”

Xiao Feng was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, I know, I'll go over." ”

With that, Xiao Feng stood up, picked up the bearskin robe next to him, and casually draped it on his body and walked out.

This month, there have been many heavy snowfalls in northern Xinjiang, and thick silver-white snowflakes are piled up on the ground, leaving a string of footprints when pedestrians occasionally pass by. But it won't be long before it's covered up again. From time to time, the north wind whistled by, making a "whooshing" sound, and the people who blew trembled for a while.

Xiao Feng walked out of the camp tent and arrived at the gate of the camp, but he was stunned when he saw the person in front of him. It's not that this person is his long-time acquaintance, on the contrary, he doesn't know this person at all.

"Uh, please forgive me for being clumsy, this brother, do we know each other?" Xiao Feng frowned, his face was puzzled, he really didn't expect who this person was, and he didn't even have a little impression.

The young man smiled slightly, and there was a coquettishness in his smile, but it was a little cunning.

Then, Xiao Feng heard the young man speak: "Uncle Xiao, Xiaosheng has admired you for a long time, and only learned about your traces after many inquiries, no, I hurried to-"

Before the young man finished speaking, Xiao Feng had already rushed up and hugged him, or, her.

"Azhu, why did you come here?"

That's right, although the appearance of the person who came was unfamiliar, but the voice was extremely familiar to Xiao Feng. Therefore, how could he not know that it was Azhu who had changed his appearance with the disguise technique?

Xiao Feng raised his head and looked into Ah Zhu's eyes.

Ah Zhu didn't answer Xiao Feng immediately, but gently dusted the snowflakes on Xiao Feng's bearskin robe with his hand, and then said softly: "Brother Xiao, let's just stand here and talk?" ”

Xiao Feng patted his head like a dream when he first woke up, "Look at me, how did you forget about this." Let's go, let's go in quickly, this way will freeze you all the way, let's go quickly. ”

After speaking, Xiao Feng grabbed Ah Zhu's hand, turned around and walked towards the camp. Ah Zhu chuckled and shook his head behind him, let go of Xiao Feng's hand, and whispered: "Brother Xiao, I am now a man, so that outsiders can see it, and I think you are as good as Longyang." ”

Xiao Feng looked at Ah Zhu's current appearance as a handsome boy, and couldn't help but laugh a little, and then continued to walk towards his camp with Ah Zhu. Encountering a soldier on the way, Xiao Feng suddenly remembered something, turned his head and called a soldier over, "Little brother, please go get a brazier and help me take it to the camp tent, I'm tired." ”

The soldier was a little puzzled at first, this Xiao Daxia's martial arts are obvious to everyone, and it is said that his martial arts should not need a brazier at all. It wasn't until he saw the young man following behind Xiao Feng that the soldier reacted, it is estimated that this friend of Xiao Daxia does not know any martial arts, and he is a little cold.

"Okay Xiao Daxia, I'll go get you a brazier." The soldier answered, and then hurried to the side.

"Azhu, you sit down first, I'll bring some water and boil it for you." After entering the camp tent, Xiao Feng immediately began to get busy, and as soon as the soldier brought in the brazier, he began to boil hot water for Azhu.

After all, after entering the camp tent, he could still see the relieved expression on Azhu's face. The reason why he showed such an expression was that Azhu was not lightly frozen outside.

"By the way, Azhu, you haven't told me yet, why are you here?" After driving the water to the brazier, Xiao Feng sat next to Ah Zhu and asked.

Azhu pouted, "Isn't it because you said that you wouldn't bring me over?" As he spoke, Ah Zhu suddenly raised his hand and hugged Xiao Feng's arm, "Brother Xiao, didn't we say that no matter where you go in the future, I will accompany you?" How can you not do what you have said? You can't just stay in the capital because of the dangers of the battlefield. ”

Feeling the strength from Ah Zhu's arm, Xiao Feng suddenly stretched out his hand and held Ah Zhu's slender palm, "Okay, I know, no matter where I go in the future, I will definitely take Ah Zhu with me." ”

I have to say that Azhu is indeed a strange woman, not only the grace and gentleness of a woman in the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, but also strong and brave.

Ah Zhu smiled silently, and gently leaned his head on Xiao Feng's shoulder, but heard Xiao Feng suddenly "hiss" softly, and his shoulder shook a little unnaturally.

"Brother Xiao, you ...... Injured? Ah Zhu was keenly aware of Xiao Feng's abnormality, raised his head and asked with some concern.

Xiao Feng smiled heartily, "A little injury, it's okay." ”

Ah Zhu couldn't help but stretched out his white fingers and nodded Xiao Feng's brows, and said with some disgust: "Then how can it be done?" Let me see. ”

Xiao Feng actually didn't really want Ah Zhu to see his wounds, and he didn't want her to worry, but he knew that he would definitely not be able to help Ah Zhu in this kind of thing. So he hesitated, and finally took off the bearskin robe on his body.

Inside the bearskin robe, Xiao Feng was only wearing a sleeveless coarse cloth shirt, and his arms were completely exposed.

"There's still one under the clothes." Azhu said with some dissatisfaction.

Xiao Feng nodded with a wry smile, and took off the coarse cloth clothes on his upper body, and sure enough, he still had two or three additional knife wounds on his body.

"This wound is too ...... A little sloppy. Ah Zhu looked at the bandaging method that was simply wrapped twice with a strip of cloth, and couldn't help but spit out. Then I saw her take out some sun-dried herbs and a few white cloths from the burden beside her.

"Because of the long distance, I was afraid that the fresh herbs would spoil, so I went to the pharmacy and bought some sun-dried herbs and brought them with me. Luckily, I thought about bringing these things, otherwise I don't think your wound would have healed for a while. With that, Ah Zhu put the herbs in his mouth and chewed them, chewing the herbs while untying off all the pieces of cloth that Xiao Feng was wrapping.

"Huh? Are herbs so scarce here? Ah Zhu looked at the next few pieces of cloth and found that there were no herbs on them except for Xiao Feng's bloodstains.

Xiao Feng nodded slightly, "Well, there are not many herbs here now, I have internal strength, and my physique is better than that of the soldiers, and a little injury can't have any effect, so I didn't use medicinal herbs to bandage." ”

Ah Zhu didn't talk about Xiao Feng because of this, after all, she knew that Xiao Feng was this character.

"But there are a lot of drinks here, after all, the weather is too cold, and you need to drink to keep out the cold, so a lot of drinks are prepared in the barracks, I have heard people say it, so I rinsed the wound with wine before bandaging." Xiao Feng thought for a moment and continued.

Ah Zhu nodded, spit the chewed herb on the cloth, and then began to bandage Xiao Feng.

"Thank you, Azhu." After the bandaging was completed, Xiao Feng smiled and held Ah Zhu's hand.

Ah Zhu shook his head slightly, and then looked at the coarse cloth clothes that Xiao Feng put on again, "Didn't we go to cut two pieces of cloth for you and make two clothes in the capital before?" Brother Xiao, you are not the leader of the beggar gang now, why are you still dressed like this? ”

Xiao Feng smiled and pointed to the box on the side, "What about the clothes, fighting and killing on the battlefield, you see these wounds on my body, if I wear those two sets of clothes, shouldn't I have broken them?" Besides, my coarse cloth clothes are shabby, but it's convenient to fight. ”

Ah Zhu was stunned for a moment, and then nodded slightly, "I didn't think about this at the time, Brother Xiao, you are a person in the rivers and lakes after all, and it is inevitable that you will often take action." If you are used to wearing this kind of clothes and then wear that kind of clothes, it is inevitable that you will be a little constrained and can't let go. ”

Xiao Feng was just about to speak again, when a horn suddenly sounded outside, and then, a voice sounded outside the tent, "Xiao Daxia!" Xiao Daxia! Dayuan's army is fighting again! ”

Xiao Feng got up suddenly, looked at Ah Zhu, and when Ah Zhu nodded, he handed over his bearskin robe, and then he put on the robe and walked out.

Before he could get out of the tent, he heard Azhu's voice behind him again.

"Brother Xiao...... Stay safe, I'm waiting for you here. ”
