With their commander killed, the Turkic soldiers who had been killed by Xue Chuyu were utterly defeated!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The Thousand Bull Guards roared like wild beasts, their eyes red with slaughter. They chased after the fleeing Turks with no regard for their own lives, slashing at anyone they saw. The originally defeated Turkic soldiers were unable to resist and were all cut into pools of blood.
The Turkic soldiers had all been annihilated!
"Retreat!" Xue Shao ordered," Everyone, clean up the battlefield immediately and treat the wounded. Cheng Qizhi, count the wounded and let everyone recover as soon as possible. Xue Chuyu, you are in charge of appeasing the people. Remember not to scare them."”
"Yes, sir!"
The Thousand Bull Guard roared in excitement. After winning this battle, the Thousand Bull Guard was even more convinced of Xue Shao! This general was worth following.
Even Xue Chuyu, who usually had a serious expression, was ecstatic and excited! Because they were his soldiers.
After seeing blood and experiencing a real battle, every single one of the Thousand Bull Guards had undergone a drastic change. They were all filled with killing intent, no different from veterans who had been through many battles.
This battle was a very good start!
At the same time as Xue Shao's excitement, he was even more worried. The Turks had already entered the Summer Province without any scruples, killing and looting. This meant that the Summer Province had fallen. As one of the important strongholds of the northern border, the Spiritual Province had fallen first, and now the Summer Province had fallen. What about the other four provinces? This was not good news for the Great Tang.
An hour later, Cheng Qizhi came to report to Xue Shao.
"General Xue!"
Cheng Qizhi excitedly cupped his fists and reported," The scene has been cleared. The Thousand Bull Troop killed a total of 680 people, while the Thousand Bull Troop killed more than 100 people with light injuries, 22 people with severe injuries, and 10 people died in battle. It was a great victory!”
Xue Shao: " En, got it!"
"The general doesn't look very happy!”Cheng Qizhi asked.
"Ten people died in battle. They were all our comrades! To be honest, I don't know if it's right to let you participate in the battle. If they were still in Chang 'an, they would at least be alive!”
Cheng Qizhi was silent.
"General Xue, people will die in war. It's just that cruel. It's either you die or I live. However, there's value in dying. I believe that our fallen comrades will be smiling when they pass away. Because of you, they became true soldiers. And because of you, they realized their dream of protecting their country. As men, no one is willing to be unknown for the rest of their lives. To them, dying for the people is the ultimate belonging of all soldiers!”
Unexpectedly, the person who could not understand the cruelty of war was Xue Shao.
Xue Shao sighed," Bury these ten people well. When we return victorious, let their souls return to their hometown!"”
"Yes, sir!" Cheng Qizhi replied.
Xue Chuyu came in." General, those women and children are all villagers from the Summer Province. The Summer Province has already fallen, and many small groups of Turks have entered the province to burn, kill, and plunder. All the men in the village have been killed by those damn Turks!”
"I know!" Xue Shao said.
"General, where should we go now that the Summer State has fallen?”Xue Chuyu asked.
"Shuozhou, Shuozhou is the last line of defense on the Great Tang's border. The Great Tang will never give up!”
"But before that, as soldiers of the Great Tang, we cannot watch our people suffer, so we need to kill all the Turks who are massacring the people of the Great Tang!”Xue Shao was filled with killing intent.
"Yes, sir!" Xue Chuyu said.
"Give some of our food to these women and children. Let them follow the path we came from and escape as soon as possible!”
"Understood!"
"Ding! [System Notification: The host has successfully protected the people and protected the family. The host is rewarded with 1000 Emperor Points. Special reward: The Army Continuous Battle Card could raise the morale and combat power of the army to the highest level. It could last for three days!”
This was perhaps the best consolation. They might have to keep fighting.
……
"Everyone, salute!"
The Thousand Bull Guards stood silently on the grave of the ten dead soldiers.
"Brothers, please rest in peace! We'll take on your future missions!”Xue Shao said loudly.
"Brothers, please rest in peace!" The soldiers shouted in unison.
Many of the Thousand Bull Guards cried, but no one cried out.
"When we return triumphantly, we will come back to pay our respects!”Xue Shao shouted," Let's go!"
The Thousand Bull Guards once again set out to slaughter the small group of Turkic soldiers who had harmed the people of the Summer Province. How could the people of the Great Tang be allowed to be slaughtered by outsiders?
As the Thousand Bull Guards groped their way over, what Xue Shao and the others saw the most were fleeing commoners, defeated soldiers, and corpses that no one had collected. Everyone was fleeing, only the Thousand Bull Guards were advancing.
In the vicinity of Summer State City, Xue Shao suspected that he had already become a reapers of the netherworld. Otherwise, why would he be walking in hell with corpses everywhere?
They saw many Tang soldiers lying in piles of corpses, emitting a foul stench. They also saw human hands and feet rolling up and down in boiling iron pots, surrounded by a group of skinny refugees who looked like humans and ghosts.
Both sides of the road were now piled up with corpses. Towns, markets, shops, and streets were left in ashes, and the countryside was deserted. Occasionally, he saw one or two living creatures, which were wild dogs or jackals with rotten human heads in their mouths.
When the Thousand Bull Guards saw this scene, they were filled with killing intent and resentment.
The Thousand Bull Guards vented all their anger on the Turkic soldiers. In these two days, the Thousand Bull Guards did not sleep or rest, and they encountered eight small groups of Turkic soldiers slaughtering and pillaging villages. The Thousand Bull Guards had wiped out nearly five thousand of them! Saber 1 was already blunt, and his clothes were covered in blood from the Turks!
If it wasn't for the Military Battle Duration Card, the Thousand Bull Guards would have been exhausted!
