The gunfire in the North has never stopped, and the originally quiet paradise on earth has turned into a hell on earth full of the smell of blood.
The corpse that had no time to restrain was lying on the ground. In a hurry, it was simply covered with a white cloth to restrain it. The ground was wet with blood and became muddy with people stepping on it one after another.
Blood and water gathered along the gullies of the soil, dyeing the pieces of white cloth covering the body red, making it eye-catching to look at.
Lu Zhizhou stood there and looked around. The smell of blood and the frightening smell of death was everywhere.
The casualty rate here is far higher than that of S Continent, with corpses everywhere and a bloody atmosphere everywhere.
Although he had been mentally prepared before setting off, he still couldn't help but sigh.
How many more sins will Hebrews commit? This war that should not have broken out in the first place has allowed it to continue across the entire continent.
Lu Zhizhou was filled with regret when he thought about it this way. If he could have discovered Wen Li's life experience earlier and learned about Hebrew's ambition earlier, there would still be room for redemption.
Remembering what Yin Sa said to him when they set out, Lu Zhizhou conveniently covered the face of the person on the ground with the handkerchief he brought.
Both of his arms were forcefully pulled out, leaving only a vein on his shoulder exposed to the air.
Before a person dies, he must have suffered a lot.
After resting on the spot, Hongyun led the people to the snowy field. There were not many enemies still in the jungle.
Most of the main force has gone to chase Fu Yuxiu. As many people as there are left in the jungle, it's time for him to take people over to find the leader.
"Do you want to act with me?" Hongyun looked at the person opposite.
Lu Zhizhou turned around with a firm look in his eyes, "When I came out, I received an order to capture Hebrews with my own hands and bring him back for trial."
In today's situation, where Fu Yuxiu is, Hebrew will be there.
After hearing this, Hongyun smiled slightly, seemingly with a bit of contempt, "Are you sure you won't be afraid?"
He remembered that this man had another level of identity, he was the son of the Prince of Kingdom K. A person of this background was used to the peaceful and prosperous age brought down by his father's generation.
Of course you will be a little scared when you see such a scene, and it is understandable.
Lu Zhizhou could tell what he meant. People like Hongyun who were used to seeing bloodshed would more or less look down upon him.
Even his father disliked his indecisiveness. The first time Wen Li met him was when he was defrauded of money.
Even Wen Li could see what his character was like, let alone Hong Yun who had been fighting for a long time.
"My people are following you. These are people who have been in the army all year round. You don't have to worry about speed. We can keep up."
Hong Yun nodded. Since Lu Zhizhou had said so, he didn't have to worry about anything and could just move forward.
It was still twenty kilometers away from where they were to the snowfield where Fu Yuxiu was, and it was getting dark.
The sky got dark early this winter, and now they couldn't care less about resting.
"Let's go immediately!"
The group of people walked along the path towards the snowfield, and the outline of the moon gradually appeared in the sky.
Now they couldn't afford to delay, and the time was slowly approaching. After about five or six kilometers, Hongyun stopped and ordered the troops to reorganize on the spot.
He turned around and looked at the still lush forest behind him. They had already left the forest and reached the river, planning to rest for half an hour before continuing.
Although the distance is not long, the terrain along this journey is complex. In addition to lush forests, there are also fast-flowing rivers and even hidden underground swamps.
Hongyun handed the kettle he carried with him to Lu Zhizhou.
"Thanks."
Lu Zhizhou opened the lid and took a sip. The sky had completely darkened. The stars are the most beautiful in places like this, and the sky is also the clearest.
"We need to go around that swamp, which is an extra two hours."
Contact with the host has been completely cut off, but no gunshots were heard, indicating that it is still safe there.
"Can you still hold on?" Hongyun glanced at the people around him.
Lu Zhizhou handed over the kettle with the lid closed, "No problem, you don't have to worry about me."
Hongyun stood up and threw the things in her hands on him condescendingly, "Then I'm leaving. I'll set off in half an hour."
Lu Zhizhou looked at the thing that fell on him. It was a bottle of trauma medicine, and looking at the bottle, it should be the powder made by Wen Li.
Her stuff is of course very good. Whether it is for stopping bleeding or healing wounds, it cannot be compared with ordinary medicinal powder.
Lu Zhizhou opened the sleeve on his left hand, and the bandaged wound on it was still bleeding out.
"How did you find it?" He muttered.
This was an injury he suffered when he was attacked just now. The wound was not big, but it was very deep. He did simple emergency treatment, but the movement of raising his hand was still inconvenient.
When he was about to apply the medicine, there was a noise over there. Lu Zhizhou looked up and saw someone coming over to report.
"General, they said they caught a spy over there."
It was Hong Yun's men who caught them. The three of them were trying to sneak into the team, but how could these people be so easy to fool
The moment the other person opens his mouth, he will see through and control him.
"Really?" Lu Zhizhou was not so interested.
Since the person has been caught by Hongyun, he must have the ability to find out.
"You'd better go and take a look. Those three people are speaking K nationality."
After hearing the deputy general's words, Lu Zhizhou looked up and asked, "K country language?"
"And she's a woman."
That's the point.
When Lu Zhizhou hurried over, he saw three people standing together with their wrists tied.
The three of them were wearing dark brown clothes like them, and the clothes were loose. Their height and frame made it immediately obvious that they were women.
"Is this your person?" Hongyun glanced at Lu Zhizhou.
These three people approached him sneakily, able to get past the people around him, and they were also wearing clothes of the same color as the K country military uniforms. It was easy to mistake them at first glance.
Lu Zhizhou didn't answer him. He walked in front of the tied man in two steps. Just as he was about to raise his hand, he heard the man in the middle calling him.
"Sia."
In a familiar female voice.
Lu Zhizhou pushed the hair that covered her face to both sides. Looking at that face, he was also surprised.
"Why are you here?!"
Yingran's side face still had scars scratched by sawgrass, and she looked a little embarrassed. This look is very different from the noble princess sitting in a magnificent palace.
"We really know each other." Hongyun stared at the two of them strangely.
Yingran took a breath and motioned for him to untie the rope tied to her body.
Lu Zhizhou was unmoved, "Why do you appear here? Aren't you supposed to be in the palace?"
When he set out, he met her in the palace. Ever since Hebrew disappeared and Jia Tong passed away, Ying Ran's mental state was not very good.
Yin Sa asked people to take good care of her, but why did she come here all of a sudden
"I followed you. I knew you were coming here." Ying Ran said without hesitation.
She had no intention of hiding this from anyone. If she hadn't been caught by these people, she would have followed him until the end.
"Nonsense, what are you doing here!"
Lu Zhizhou grew up with her and felt sorry for her sudden change, but he couldn't follow her like this.
"This is a battlefield, not a fashion show you can just go to. Do you know how dangerous it is here?"
Listening to Lu Zhizhou's roar, Yingran only said one sentence.
"I know you are here to see my father. I want to see my father."
After hearing this, Lu Zhizhou was stunned. Yin Sa must have told Yingran what happened on the day Hatas and Jiatong passed away.
She still insisted on coming here, probably because she wanted to hear the truth from her father's mouth.
"No, I'll have someone escort you back right away. This is no joke." Lu Zhizhou refused.
This is a battlefield, and every minute is full of dangers. He will definitely not allow Yingran to appear here like this.
"If you don't let me follow you, I won't be able to return to K country safely. If I can't see my father, I might as well die here."
When Yingran said this, her face was calm and resolute.
Lu Zhizhou was also shocked by such words. When could Ying Ran be so determined to say such words
In the past, when I was wronged, I would shrink into the arms of His Majesty the King. Even if I fell down, I would cry out in pain.
It was beyond his expectation that such a girl could say the word death to him with a calm face.
"After all, you are also the princess of K country. General knowledge is the most basic. The current situation is not the time for you to fool around. Don't be willful. I will arrange for someone to send you back immediately." Lu Zhizhou responded somewhat loosely.
Ying Ran raised her head and looked as if she was dead, "You can give it a try to see if only my body will be left in the end."
Hongyun on the side could tell that this woman was the princess of K country.
"Captain, we are ready to go." The subordinate on the side reminded.
Hongyun stood up and looked down at the people over there, "We should keep going. General Lu should be able to catch up soon."
Seeing this situation, Lu Zhizhou could only relent and agreed to take her with him.
No matter what angle he looked at, he didn't want to take Yingran with him. Firstly, she was a princess after all, and Yu Guo was not suitable to come to such a dangerous place. Secondly, as a friend, he didn't want Yingran to watch. He was an enemy of the Hebrews.
But after she said this, she could only take people there.
Going up the river and over the mountains in front of you, you can reach the snowfield where Fu Yuxiu is.
But the further up the mountainside, the lower the temperature around them became.
Hearing the person next to her sneezing, Lu Zhizhou put on the extra cotton clothes he brought with him.
"I heard that Wen Li's husband is Fu Yuxiu. She also set out for the battlefield before you, so she is by her husband's side now." Yingran suddenly said something so carelessly.
"Don't you like Wen Li very much? She is with her husband now. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if you went there?" Yingran said this with sarcasm.
Such harsh words, he had never heard Ying Ran say such words with such an attitude in the past few years.
This is the first time.
"A married woman still doesn't know how to restrain herself from seducing you. If she can keep her distance from you, you won't like such a person."
These words became more and more outrageous. Lu Zhizhou looked back at her with dissatisfaction in his words, "You'd better stop talking nonsense to discredit Wen Li. Otherwise, you can walk the rest of the way by yourself."
Yingran sneered and looked at him sarcastically.
"What? Don't you like hearing such words? That's right, the truth is always the hardest to hear. Don't you like what I say about you, Wen Li?" Yingran shrugged, "You still care so much about a shamelessly cheating woman. Wait, I don’t know how you fell in love with her.”
Lu Zhizhou stopped. He never thought that Yingran would say such harsh words.
Even if she was a little willful in the past, she would never say such vicious words.
How could she become like this
"You'd better shut up or leave alone."
Yingran smiled disdainfully when she heard this, "You are bringing soldiers from K country. Don't forget that I am the princess of K country. I am the one you must protect. You must believe in me and protect me, otherwise you will suffer." Damn it."
Hongyun, who was walking aside, sneered, "If there is really a divine punishment in this world, your father should be the first to be struck by lightning."
He seduced foreigners to start a war for his own selfish interests and killed so many people. Now his daughter still dares to say such high-sounding words here. It is really ridiculous.
"You!!" Yingran raised her finger and pointed at him angrily at these words, "How dare you talk to me like that."
Hongyun glanced at the woman lightly, with an expression that said she didn't take her seriously, "I don't care what kind of bullshit princess you are, if you dare to hear you say anything bad about our mistress again, I will take you out of here." Throw it down, the beasts in this mountain will be almost attracted by the smell of blood. If they eat enough corpses and run into someone who is still alive, do you think they will chew up all your bones?"
These words successfully made Yingran stop.
Seeing that she dared not speak out in anger, Hongyun didn't bother to talk to her anymore.
This woman, who could kill with one hand, dared to speak ill of their mistress. She was such a ignorant woman.
Lu Zhizhou continued walking with her. There was still a long way to go in the second half of the night, and he really had no interest in talking to her anymore.
However, Lu Zhizhou glanced at Ying Ran who was being supported by four or five guards and continued walking behind him.
He whispered a few words into the ear of the lieutenant beside him.
The closer she got to the snowy field, the cold wind that hit her body became more and more biting. Yingran's nose was red from the cold, but she still continued to move forward with determination in her eyes.
Hongyun glanced at the map. He was almost there, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
If there is no movement during the day, then the probability of launching an attack at night is highest.
Soon there was a sound in the valley opposite. Looking up, it seemed like fire exploded in the air...
Today is the first day of 2022. I wish everyone a happy New Year and a happy New Year. Be a beautiful and cute little fairy! ! Refill! !
