Mulan Has No Elder Brother

Chapter 119: The sound of hoofs

Views:

He Mulan crossed for the second time, but the fear in her heart couldn't be described in words.

She was afraid that she would not be able to go back.

In addition to Hua Mulan's force, what He Mulan could rely on most in the army was her memory. However, if he followed Hua Mulan's experience step by step, He Mulan would not know in which year he would find the "answer" that Kou Qianzhi wanted and go out smoothly from here.

Her intuition told her that when she saw Tuoba Tao here, she should know why Kou Qianzhi wanted to throw her here.

So she impatiently wanted to get out early.

When Hua Mulan first marched north to Rouran, she was just a miscellaneous general of the right army. Later, she got the blue eyes of Tuoba Tao. It was already the seven generals in Rouran's territory to rescue Tuoba Tao, and the battle was close. The end of things.

He Mulan doubted whether she could last until that time.

When facing a sea of corpses.

If she wants to hide her strength, she will wait for more than a year, she is afraid that she will collapse first. Not everyone is strong enough to always be at ease in the face of totally unfamiliar cheers.

A person who has already reached the full level is suddenly reloaded and replayed the plots you have played, the mazes you have practiced, and the bosses you have cleared. You can imagine the irritability in your heart. When ordinary people encounter this kind of thing, they just want to use their memory to find a way to clear the customs earlier, and stop reading those dialogues that are familiar enough to vomit.

At least this time it's different, a fresh, non-tiring experience.

It is with this mentality that she will do it all over again.

But some things can't be done quickly, for example, "feelings".

He Mulan and Adan Zhiqi were strangers to each other, but because of Mulan's emotion as a "bond", He Mulan looked at Adan Zhiqi differently, like a life-saving straw. Someone who at least proves that her memory is not delusional.

To a certain extent, it was not that Adan Zhiqi had relied on He Mulan at all, but He Mulan had relied on Adan Zhiqi and used him as the "spiritual pillar" at this stage.

But when she discovered that this "pillar" was not very reliable, and this "fire chief" was not as strong and generous as Mulan remembered, He Mulan began to be afraid.

But fortunately, A Shan Zhiqi didn't seem to "blacken" Mulan because he was an "additional leader", and still left porridge and rice for her, just like before.

With an uneasy heart, He Mulan followed Adan Zhiqi into the tent, but found that there was no one inside.

She didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or to feel the depression of being left out.

"Why is there no one..."

He Mulan said blankly.

"The fire chief said that they would go out to practice martial arts for a while at night, and would not come back until they were completely unable to move." A Shan Zhiqi scooped up a bowl of corn porridge from the warm earthenware pot on the fire pond. "This is different from Heishan City, and you can't relax at night. You can also be idle when you are idle at night. When you practice, you sleep with sweat, but it is warm."

Huh? is that so

He Mulan remembered Hua Mulan's initial memory...

Obviously, they all practiced during the day and returned to the camp like a dog, slumped on the ground and didn't want to wake up. A'Dan Zhiqi struggled to get up and went to cook at the kitchen camp. After they finished eating, they bragged to each other and chatted. When everyone fell asleep, Hua Mulan got up and went to the unmanned school to practice arrows and practice others. Martial arts…

Did you work so hard

Or is the Chinese army really different

"A'Dan Zhiqi, why are you cooking? Isn't it supposed to be the chief executive who eats?" He Mulan took the corn porridge, covered her hands, and asked him strangely.

In the right army, except for the fire chief, whoever moves the cooking and food, that is a matter of public anger.

"Huh? But the fire chief asked me if I would cook, and I said yes, and the fire chief said I would come later..." A Dan Zhiqi glanced at He Mulan in confusion.

And everyone has an "Ah that's great" expression.

In the end, why are the people in the right army scrambling to cook, and no one in the central army is willing

Why so much difference

In order to prevent the topic to be discussed later, He Mulan drank all the large bowl of dry porridge in three or two mouthfuls, put down the bowl and asked:

"I thought you would hate me."

"Um?"

"I hate that I just decide where you want to go without your consent."

"Mulan, is your backstage big enough to put anyone into the Central Army? Have you asked someone to send me to the Central Army?" A'Dan Zhiqi was actually very concerned about this, so he asked straight to the point. came out.

"I thought I was expected to have some great talent, so that's why..."

"It's not that I have a big backstage, it's like this..." He Mulan explained the reason why the Central Army recruited him into the Central Army, and then looked at A Shan Zhiqi who was a little startled and explained:

"I originally wanted to come to the Central Army, but he said that I could add you. I think I have a good relationship with you. If I have an acquaintance in the Central Army to take care of each other, I agreed to his request. It is not that I begged him to let you come to China. Jun, but he said he could let you come, and I agreed."

In fact, what He Mulan originally thought was to quickly climb to a higher position first, and then be able to get Adan Zhiqi over, or save him when he was in danger.

But when there is a better way to appear in front of her, she will not miss it.

"So that's how it is..." A Shan Zhiqi sighed softly, "It really is a head start..."

He smiled wryly, added a bowl of water to the remaining porridge, and continued to boil it.

"I shouldn't blame you. I'm sad, not because I'm angry with you, but because I have too many expectations for myself, and I'm disappointed and unwilling after all of a sudden. Yes, but only when I got to the place did I find out that I was Teng's concubine, do you understand what I mean?"

"… Feel sorry."

"You don't have to say sorry, I was just an ordinary person."

A Shan Zhiqi shook his head.

"Because I'm an ordinary person, I can't live as recklessly and easily as you do. But even so, since I've come to the Central Army, this is the chance God gave me. I have to work hard and redouble my efforts to be able to Just don't let this opportunity slip up."

"Are you going to work hard with this group of people? They can't wait to take all your things into their arms!"

He Mulan was secretly annoyed at the thought of this flaming man's behavior.

"You actually still obey!"

A Shan Zhiqi should not be such a person!

He would say "Mulan, shoot me first" kind of warrior!

"Mulan, have you always been like this?" A'Dan Zhiqi tilted his head to look at her very strangely, "I've always been like this... not gregarious?"

"what?"

"For them, we are strangers. For the latecomers, temptation and suppression are normal. Even if you are not in the military, anywhere, there are very few people like you who are so enthusiastic about newcomers for no reason. They don't know what we can do, do what they can do first, and then slowly adapt to each other, which is normal."

Seeing He Mulan's duck listening to thunder, A'Dan Zhiqi blinked in distress.

"You don't seem to understand?"

Isn't this normal between men

Why is she troubled like a little daughter-in-law who is ostracized by handkerchiefs

"I just think they've gone too far."

He Mulan said honestly.

"I have a three-year-old son at home."

A'Dan Zhiqi suddenly mentioned his son, which shocked He Mulan.

After all, he is a familiar person.

"His name is Adanzhuo. He is a very strong boy. He likes to run behind children who are older than him very much. I hope others can take him to play with him." A nostalgic expression appeared on his face. "Actually, children are like this. The younger ones like to run after the older ones, and the older ones chase after the older ones. You see, even children don't play with people who are weaker than themselves..."

He Mulan's mind was already mushy, and when he looked up, there was an image of A Danzhuo running after others with a runny nose and bare butt.

"In fact, he is already taller than children of those ages, but because he is young, everyone just doesn't take him to play."

"They would push him, beat him, and sometimes my son would fight with them when he was angry. But after a while, they soon forgot their previous conflicts and started messing around together..."

A Shan Zhiqi always thought clearly.

"Hua Mulan, we are now 'Adanzhuo', and the same fire in the middle army is the group of big kids who don't take us to play. Although we are on the same fire now, but we are not familiar with each other, and our starting point is different. Equality from the start, that's impossible."

"You are a 'champion' with amazing martial arts skills. You may have your own way of dealing with people. But I'm just an ordinary person mixed into the Chinese army. I can only get along with them in the way of ordinary people."

"The way of ordinary people?"

He Mulan blinked.

"En." A Shan Zhiqi laughed, took the boiled porridge from the fire, and wrapped it in a thick blanket. In this way, the gruel will not be dried and scorched by the fire in the fire pond, and the temperature can be maintained.

"The way ordinary people do is to think about what they can do for their companions before they don't know how their companions treat you. People's hearts will be warm, but if they are not warm, they will be cold. Let's talk about it then.

His face became very warm in the light of the fire.

He was obviously mediocre in appearance, but He Mulan couldn't help but want to cry when she saw it.

Adan Zhiqi picked up the jar wrapped in the blanket and put it away in the leeward.

As soon as the fire came back, they could take a sip of hot water.

He Mulan knew why she wanted to cry.

—Because a long time ago, Hua Mulan came back from training with arrows and drank this kind of warm hot porridge.

Whether it was Mulan or He Mulan, Adan Zhiqi taught them a very good and important lesson.

He is like a beacon destined to stand there, guiding them not to deviate from the path of life.

It didn't take long for He Mulan and Adan Zhiqi to return to the camp with the same fire. A-Dan Zhiqi stood up very naturally and went to the door to greet him.

He Mulan fought for a while in her heart, but she also stood up and followed A'Dan Zhiqi.

At this moment, He Mulan really realized that he was actually relying on A'Dan Zhiqi.

She is following him to learn how to be an ordinary person in this era.

This Xianbei native, who was born and raised 1,500 years ago, is the real master of this world.

And she is just an "other person" who has strayed into this place, and doesn't even know how to start from the bottom.

After this hot person came in, he was obviously a lot more affectionate with A Shan Zhiqi than in the afternoon. Probably people who can cook are welcome everywhere. When A Shan Zhiqi brings out the hot porridge to keep them warm , they laughed even more cheerfully.

"Oh, it's amazing, I thought a weak chicken came, but it turned out to be a good one! You must have a family, right?" Huo Chang took a mouthful of porridge and narrowed his eyes comfortably.

"Well, the child is three years old." Adan Zhiqi nodded.

"Having a wife and children is really enviable. We are still old bachelors." Tonghuo took the jar with a smile. "However, you are still a recruit. It is too dangerous on the battlefield. You are a family, and you can't be lazy."

"It's best to practice martial arts with us at night. Swords and swords have no eyes on the battlefield. You can't survive because of your martial arts skills. Sometimes you have to rely on your body's reaction..."

His words clearly meant something, and he kept looking at He Mulan.

If it was in the afternoon, He Mulan, who was angry because others wanted to take away all the weapons purchased by the Hua family's savings, would probably feel that what they said was a mockery at this moment, and they were raising A'Dan Zhiqi and snubbing him.

To be honest, He Mulan didn't even know that she had such a narrow side.

Probably because it was held in Hua Mulan's body for so long that she forgot the days when others didn't take her seriously.

but now…

Seeing him looking at her, He Mulan nodded friendly.

"I understand what you mean. I just came back from training with arrows."

This attitude surprised everyone.

"I have 150 steps to bow, and riding and archery are my strengths. I'm a new recruit, so maybe I'm inexperienced, but at least when I'm out in battle, I can shoot arrows for you from behind." He Mulan looked at it and laughed suddenly. A Shan Zhiqi, who is still in the dark, continued to endure the possible ridicule and said:

"So this bow is very important to me and you can't take it away. The other stuff..."

Because of her nervousness and the shame of showing weakness, although He Mulan said she was a bachelor, her body was actually tense and trembling slightly.

"Oh, this kid really takes us as people who can't take our eyes off of anything. Do you think we are the right soldiers who are all over the floor and want to kill with broken helmets?" laughed.

This is probably some kind of joke made by the right army back then, because in Hua Mulan's memory, the central army often used this topic to laugh at the right army.

"One hundred and fifty steps? I have been in the army for so many years, and I have never seen such a strong bow. You can't see that your wooden bow has such a strong bow. When it is so full, it will break all of a sudden?"

"… probably."

I used iron tire bows in my last life.

He Mulan whispered in her heart.

"Since you're good at using bows and arrows, it's not useless." Huo Chang smacked his lips and glanced at A Shan Zhiqi. "Although you are a head, you can cook, which is not bad. A few fellows under Lao Tzu were poisoned to death by Lao Tzu, and they have diarrhea before every war."

"That's right, I seriously suspect that Gui Sheng and Qi Zi were cut off by the squirrel man because of diarrhea and weak legs!"

One of the companions laughed loudly.

For a while, the atmosphere in the camp was not so tense.

When they came back from martial arts training, they were already exhausted, but after drinking the porridge, they felt sleepy.

He Mulan was still moved and the atmosphere finally eased. At this time, when he saw that almost four or five people were sharing the water in a wooden basin, his expression became extremely dignified.

"Mulan, do you want to wipe it?" Adan Zhiqi put on his shoes and handed the towel he had just wiped to Mulan.

"My water is still hot, you can wash mine."

"I-me-me, I'm not sweating, forget it."

"Oh." A Shan Zhiqi picked up the basin and poured it out, "I can't see it, you look clean, but you're actually quite informal. I thought you must be someone who has to scrub every day. "

Casual = you're so dirty.

Heaven and earth can learn... I am really the person who needs to scrub every day...

broken!

He Mulan suddenly found that a more serious problem appeared in front of her.

In this middle army where almost everyone is trying their best to practice martial arts, there is nowhere to meet people at night.

If that's the case, then sneaking out to take care of yourself becomes an illusion.

Oh my god!

It's okay not to wash your feet, if you don't wash the words below

He Mulan anxiously crawled back into the mattress, feeling extremely dirty.

***

It is more comfortable to be acceptable than to be feared.

At least He Mulan thinks so now.

Although she is not gregarious, arrogant, and rude to her seniors, she is, after all, a "champion" among the recruits, and some of her tempers are normal. People in the same fire think so, so she is tolerant of her.

Especially after the news that He Mulan hit the target while practicing arrows a few nights ago and didn't take a break in between, the people in the same fire had a better attitude towards her.

Originally, what He Mulan was most dissatisfied with was their contempt and disdain for A Shan Zhiqi, as well as their arrogance in asking for their belongings. But this most important point of contradiction was also shown by A Shan Zhiqi. His one-handedly turned corruption into magical cooking skills, and his martial arts skills, which are actually not weak, have been improved.

As for why they don't want things from two people anymore, when they were training each other's horses one night, a Tonghuo said the answer:

"It's just you two poor bastards! I have been in the Central Army for so many years, and I have never seen anyone with equipment worse than Crawly!

He Mulan's force was truly amazing, and A'Dan Zhiqi also had a cooperative spirit that was rare among Xianbei people. In general, Tonghuo was quite satisfied with them after getting along with them for a while. He Mulan also began to learn some military rules from the familiarity with Tonghuo, and thought hard about how to solve personal problems every day.

"Are you in a hurry? Go to pee together?"

"No, I don't want to pee."

"It's a ghost, the water you drank with us just now, your bladder is made of iron?"

"Hehe, hehe...".

in the big account.

"Report, Crawly descended from Heishankou to Woye Town in the west!"

"How many people?"

"About four thousand."

Marshal Tuoba nodded and ordered the Zuo Army and the Zhong Army to attack quickly to intercept these crawly people.

Yuchi Kualu got the order, and immediately returned to the camp to send troops to fight. When he remembered Hua Mulan, he gave an order to the following.

"Which battalion was the champion of the recruit last time?"

"In the Centuries of the Golden Twelve."

"Let's go to 'Golden Camp' to fight. If Mulan is still alive and his record is good, let him make up for the missing centurion this time. Remember, I ordered it to be mentioned."

Every time you are right, there will be fewer soldiers, and this is the best opportunity for promotion.

It is also the best chance for grace.

"Yes!"

He Mulan never thought that in the middle of the army so quickly, he would really face the creepy man.

Hua Mulan was in the black camp in her previous life, and it took four months from training to being able to play. The battles are just sweeping the tail, and the real battles are only after they have entered the main army.

This is probably the risk of choosing the Chinese army.

He Mulan held the weapon nervously and expectantly.

"Are we going to fight?" The fire chief looked at the drum-beating thousands and centurions, and began to prepare. Seeing that He Mulan and A'Dan Zhiqi were still stunned, they immediately shouted, "Why are you standing there stupidly? Do you think you really came to the army to cook?"

He was more worried about the simple and honest A'Dan Zhiqi, that's why he roared like this.

A Shan Zhiqi blushed, ran to put on the leather armor, put on the goggles, and hurriedly stuffed the short melee blade into the boot.

He Mulan still felt a little unreal. He hurriedly put on his armor, put a bow and arrow on his back, mounted the horse, and followed the fire chief and set off with the same army.

A total of 3,500 people attacked, the front is the Chinese army, and at the forefront is the elite Yingyang army of the Chinese army. Each of them rode the good horses issued by the army, and there were substitute horses behind them. They wore iron helmets without tassels, and they wore bright light armor.

He Mulan felt dazzled.

Three thousand five hundred people, enough to fill their former school playground with as many as two cavalry, galloped forward without any commotion except for the sound of hoofs.

Their left and right flanks are the left army guarding the safety of the central army. Compared with the central army, their formation is not so neat and calm.

At this moment, He Mulan truly understood what kind of existence the Chinese Army was, and why most people went out at night to practice horsemanship.

The eagle flag of the Central Army fluttered in the wind, and each centenary formed a column, acting in unison, like one person, exactly like the kind of indestructible sword. They rushed straight down from the hillside, led by Ying Yangjun, took a shortcut and arrived in front of the Creeping Man's team early.

He Mulan used to think that the two cavalrymen in the western world would meet on the grass. It would be ridiculous if you rushed at me once, and I rushed at you once, but when I really got to this place in Montenegro, I realized that the world is infinite, and you can do whatever you want. No matter how subtle it is, it cannot match the convenience of this grassland in Mapingchuan.

Here, what is required is the indomitable momentum and the composure of fighting hand to hand. At the moment when the Chinese army finally pursued the Crawling man, He Mulan heard the sound of the crawling army stepping on the ground.

They were much more scattered than Da Wei's armor, but because of this, a kind of rough and terrifying ferocity rushed towards them. The two teams crawled towards the same place like two reinforced pythons:

- Woye.

Like a mythical beast passing through the clouds of war, the Chinese army quickly interspersed with the howling of Huochang around him.

The battle begins.

In He Mulan's memory, the Rouran that Hua Mulan faced seemed to be a soft egg who could only run away. In a few real battles, the Rouran people only dared to fight once with more wins than less.

But here, that's not the case.

The Rouran people facing the Chinese army were the elites who would really do harm to the Great Wei. In He Mulan's eyes, the large group of men and horses seemed to have turned into a monster. The rush in the voice made He Mulan stunned.

If it is said that Mulan was never afraid when she first entered the battlefield, with the trembling brought by the bloodline passed down from her ancestors, Hua Mulan showed a desire to kill, then living in a peaceful age will always only be with "stillness" He Mulan, who was dealing with corpses, showed a kind of fear.

He Mulan's fire chief had always thought it was a real fight. What he should be worried about was that A'Dan Zhiqi, who was not very skilled in martial arts and was familiar with Rouran people, had been paying attention to him so that he would not become a Rouran person. 's exploits.

But when it was time for the short battle, they realized that what they really needed to worry about was not A Dan Zhiqi, who was dealing with it very calmly, but He Mulan, who was dazed with his knife.

"I'm afraid this kid has never seen human life, so he's starting to be afraid." Tonghuo said that he was worried, rushed to He Mulan's side, and shouted into her ear: "If you don't dare to cut with a knife, use a bow and arrow. Aren't you strong? Where's your bow!"

Yes, yes, yes, I still have bows and arrows!

I can cut it without this!

Like a frightened beast, He Mulan grabbed the bow from behind and raised the longbow behind him.

She heard the sound of Rouran's horses' hooves getting louder and louder, and heard the alternating and neat sound of the hoofs treading the ground, the rubbing of armor, and a rough and strong gasp.

She saw countless soldiers of the central army fighting with them, and a copper hammer appeared in front of her fellow fire...

"Anti-God Evil God"

He Mulan made up his mind, wondering if he shot an arrow like sleepwalking.

The speed of the arrow was extremely fast, and Tonghuo was surprised to find that the arrow hit the enemy in front of him, causing him to lie down.

Tonghuo turned his head and praised:

"Mulan, your archery skills are good! Sure enough, you have one hundred and fifty steps... Ah!"

The Crawly Man who was hit with an arrow was not shot in the heart, but in the left shoulder. After suffering severe pain, he straightened up, and directly smashed the Xianbei man in front of him with a copper hammer.

"Ahhh!"

He Mulan screamed in horror.

The self, who has never been able to shoot without a vacancy, actually missed it!

She missed it! She dare not shoot the heart!

She was the one who killed Tong Huo!

The crawly man with a face full of brains and fragments found the culprit who let him still shoot an arrow, and rushed towards He Mulan on a horse with a grinning smile!

When He Mulan's Huo Chang saw his companions die in battle, he roared and rushed towards the enemy, wanting to avenge his companions. Seeing that He Mulan was in danger, A'Dan Zhiqi, who was already jealous, picked up his spear and slammed it hard, and rushed to her side desperately.

"Mulan! You face it! Throw away the bow, pick up the knife! Pick up the knife!"

He shouted hysterically, but a louder shout of killing overwhelmed his voice.

Knife

take what!

By the way, there are knives!

He Mulan almost let go of the bow in a terrible state, took out the knife that he had just withdrawn, and waited tremblingly for the arrival of the Rouran man.

It's just that the one who came before that Rouran was the halberd of another Rouran.

He Mulan dazedly relied on the natural reaction of his body to lift the knife and hold his halberd. The fire chief arrived quickly, intercepted the Rouran man with the copper hammer, and began to fight with him.

Others of the same fire arrived one after another. Although He Mulan seemed to be in a sleepwalking state, her survival instinct allowed her to use Hua Mulan's powerful fighting instinct with ease.

This made the other fellows grit their teeth.

If the arrow just shot was the heart, it was the head...

Yes…

Oh shit!

A Shan Zhiqi sent out a shot, piercing the Rouran person in front of He Mulan with a chill. All she felt was the hot, bloody liquid splattering on her horse's head, making her feel sick.

But at least she was saved.

She survived.

Holding the knife, He Mulan watched the Rouran person in front of her grit her teeth and screamed after being shot. Suddenly, all the Rouran people around her ran towards here. Her ease had not been maintained for a moment, and the ground moved the mountain. The rattling of hooves came from behind.

Where did the Rouran come from

Didn't Ying Yang Jun intercept all of them

She was swept off the horse and fell to the ground while watching Ah Shan Zhiqi count arrows. Her new fire chief was also smashed to the head by the abominable copper hammer, and was trampled away like a broken sack.

She fell to the ground amid the sound of a horn, falling, rolling, pressing, being pressed, watching the broken corpse, the severed head, and the withered grass constantly flipping in front of her. After a while, her horse fell too, pinning her down firmly. A group of creepy people laughed cruelly, and let their horses start galloping.

Horses, hooves, dead people, everything pressed against her. Her eyes were black, under the trampling of horses' hooves, her bones were broken, her eyes were protruding, her breath was getting weaker and weaker, she howled and wanted to throw away the horse's corpse on her body. .

"I was saved just now!"

Death is getting closer.

She widened her eyes, thinking frantically in her heart.

"I was still alive just now!"

***

"How about Jin Twelve?"

The Chinese army came back victorious. Although it was a little messed up by the Rouran Walk who suddenly appeared from the side, it was fortunate that the left army rescued in time and did not move the bones of the Yingyang army.

Of course, some casualties are normal.

"The fire where recruits Hua Mulan and that A Shan Zhiqi were all annihilated. There are only seventeen people left in Jin Twelve's centenary."

The confidant was also a little embarrassed.

"It was their flank that was attacked. Hardly anyone survived."

"Pity."

Yuchi Kualu remembered Hua Mulan's amazing martial arts.

"Yeah, it's a pity."

As for the three centenarians, to replenish such skilled elites, I don't know how long it will take.

The author has something to say: The mood to write is very uncomfortable. But this was what He Mulan had to experience.

Well, whoever is in the mood to write a small theater can write it, I'm going to dinner...
