Chapter 1672 Magic medicine!
Although this confrontation ended with the victory of Nanling Kingdom, there was not much joy in the military formation of Nanling Kingdom at this moment.
The huge gap in numbers is like a mountain pressing against everyone's hearts.
"Has the number of casualties been counted?"
In the tent of the commander, the prince sat at the top, looked at the generals on standby below, and said in a deep voice.
"It has been counted." Bing Wuji stepped forward, his face a little ugly: "Because of our battle formation, if our people are seriously injured, they will be dragged to the back by the soldiers behind and be pushed by the people behind. Therefore, this time, less than 12,000 people were killed, but more than 100,000 people were injured, of which nearly 60,000 were seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness."
Hearing this number, the faces of the generals present suddenly became ugly.
The total number of people killed and injured is over 100,000, more than one-fifth of the army. And this is just the first battle. Although the number of people killed by the enemy is more than 200,000, it is not injured compared to the enemy. As the number of people fighting on the Nanling Kingdom decreases, the power of the battle formation is also constantly weakening. In this way, how many casualties will be killed or injured in the next battle?
What's more, the reason why this battle was won was entirely due to the surprise attack of the army of spirit beasts. By the next moment, the opponent would inevitably be guarding against the army of spirit beasts and would definitely not give Nanling Kingdom a chance.
"If there is a natural barrier to defend, even if the enemy is twice as many, we are not afraid!" A general said a little hatefully: "It's just that there is a flat horse here, and once the battle is in close combat, our army has too few people, and it's really passive to fight."
After this person's words fell, everyone fell silent again. Haven't they thought about this person's thoughts?
"Or, let's see if we have a chance to retreat to Snow White City? Snow White City has a city wall and a formation, so we can definitely hold the other party for seven days. As long as reinforcements arrive, we naturally don't have to worry about anything." After a long silence, someone suggested.
However, before this person's words could be finished, it aroused opposition from everyone.
"No, if we retreat, the enemy will definitely not miss this opportunity. We will definitely attack us when our battle formation is in chaos. What will we fight against them at that time?"
"Yes, then Sun Sheng is a famous general. How could he miss such an opportunity? At that time, we will inevitably be eroded until we are completely destroyed."
"Even if we can retreat to Snow White against the enemy's attack, how much can we have left at that time? Can we still defend Snow White?"
Asked questions one by one, the general who spoke turned red and stomped his feet hard and said, "Since we can't retreat, then we will fight with them!"
Everyone smiled bitterly.
"At present, we can only persevere. As long as the reinforcements arrive, everything will naturally not be a problem." The prince suddenly said, "The father has sent me a message, and a million troops have gathered. At this moment, we have set out. In a hurry, it may not take seven days to reach this place. Moreover, there are reports that sects and casual cultivators from all over the country have spontaneously sent people here to help us guard the border."
"Sect and casual cultivators?" When everyone heard the prince's words, their eyes suddenly became strange.
"Hasn't the sects and casual cultivators always confronted the imperial court? How could they come to help us?" asked a general.
Bing Wuji pondered and said, "If the Nanling Kingdom does not exist, the next one for Beiliang Kingdom and Liuli Kingdom to take action will be these sects and cultivation forces, so that there will be no more forces in Nanling Kingdom that can threaten their rule. Therefore, those sects and cultivation forces will inevitably be anxious. Moreover, among the sects and casual cultivators, there are also people who are loyal to the country."
"Well, with the help of the sects and many casual cultivators, our strength can be increased a little. Moreover, among those sects and casual cultivators, there must be those who are close to here. In addition, they are scattered and can come with swords. I believe it doesn't take much longer than when we can last for the first few days and with their supplements, we will probably be able to last longer."
As this person said, everyone's faces gradually relaxed. It seemed that things were not to the point of complete despair.
"It's hard, then Sun Sheng probably won't have thought of these things. Will he give us a chance?" However, soon another question appeared in front of everyone.
"Yes, Sun Sheng is definitely not a good person and will never give us a chance. He is very likely to fight us continuously at an extremely fast speed and directly crush us."
"For the sake of the present, we can only help the injured soldiers recover quickly and get into the battle as soon as possible. Otherwise, without two confrontations, the number of people we can participate in the battle will be greatly reduced and we will no longer be able to stop the enemy's attack."
Everyone thought of this and became silent again. Everyone realized that the biggest problem at the moment was to allow the injured soldiers to re-enter the battle as soon as possible, so that the number of troops could be controlled. However, this was impossible. Those who were slightly injured were seen, but those seriously injured soldiers could not re-enter the battle so quickly without a period of cultivation.
"Huh, what's the smell?"
At this moment, a confused voice suddenly rang out.
Immediately afterwards, everyone's expressions suddenly became alert. At this moment, they all smelled a strange smell that filled the air. The smell smelled a little sweet, and people wanted to smell it again after smelling it.
However, it is too strange to suddenly appear such a smell at this time, and people have to think about whether this will be the enemy's conspiracy.
"Come!"
Bing Wuji shouted violently, and two soldiers rushed in from outside.
"What does this smell come from??" Bing Wuji asked seriously.
"General, this is emitted from the National Guarding Army camp." The soldier hurriedly reported.
"National Protection Army?" Everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on the eight national protection generals present.
"We don't know what's going on?" The extremely general of the National Guardian Army said in a confused look: "No, General Huang Hao is still in the National Guardian Army's barracks. Will something happen?"
"Yes, we originally invited General Huang Hao to discuss matters, but he said he had something else to do, so he didn't come. Will this fragrance be related to General Huang Hao?"
"Can Sun Sheng be so despicable that he knows that the spirit beast army is controlled by General Huang Hao, so he secretly poisons and wants to kill General Huang Hao?"
The extremely protective generals' faces were very ugly, with some concerns.
"Let's go and have a look!" The prince suddenly stood up from his seat, and when he brushed his sleeves, he walked out. The prince had seen Huang Hao's strength and knew that Huang Hao could even kill even an immortal, so he naturally attached great importance to it. In a vague way, a sudden burst of hope suddenly rose in his heart.
When everyone saw the prince walking out of the military tent, they hurriedly followed and followed the prince through the military camp. After a while, they arrived at the military camp of the National Guardian Army. Leading several generals of the National Guardian Army, the group soon came outside Huang Hao's military tent.
It was very lively outside Huang Hao's military tent at this moment. Many soldiers carried buckets of clear water to the military tent, which looked very lively.
"What's going on?" Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes were even more confused, and then they entered the military tent.
The next moment, their eyes suddenly widened, and they saw that steam was rising in Huang Hao's military tent. At the center of the tent, there was a huge stone pot. The stone pot was set up by several thick huge rocks, and there were blazing flames burning below, making the stone pot hot, and people kept throwing firewood into the flames, drying hot.
Huang Hao stood on the stone pot, holding a thick wooden stick in his hands and stirring it constantly in the stone pot. Every time he stirred, a scent of fragrance would rise.
"General Huang Hao, what are you doing?" a general couldn't help but shout.
Seeing the prince and others, a smile appeared on Huang Hao's face: "Your Highness, Generals, you are here just in time. I have made a pot of soup medicine to speed up the healing of the wound. It will be boiled at this moment. You should send someone to distribute these medicines to the injured soldiers."
"Can this work?" Hearing Huang Hao's words, all the generals showed a disbelief. They had seen the medicine boiling, but they had never seen the way to boil the medicine like this. It was not that they did not believe in Huang Hao, but that everything in front of them looked too bold and rough. How useful can the medicine boiled in this way be?
However, not everyone is like this. For example, General Meng and Bing Wuji knew the background of Huang Hao's alchemist, and immediately showed a look of ecstasy on their faces. They were still worried about the casualties of the soldiers just now, but now Huang Hao has boiled such a big pot of medicine. He is really sleepy and sent a pillow.
"Why don't you ask someone to send the medicine?" the prince made even more decision and spoke directly.
With the prince's statement, the other generals naturally would not violate it. They immediately came out one after another, and soon brought a large group of soldiers, and no one was holding a large wooden barrel in their hands.
Soon, the medicine was distributed to every soldier, and then the entire military camp was boiling. After drinking the medicine, the wounds on the injured people began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a few minutes, the slightly injured people had completely recovered, and the bodies of those seriously injured people also quickly improved, even those who were dying. In less than half an hour, all the wounded soldiers who had drunk the medicine, except for those who had lost their legs, stood up again, looking lively. If it weren't for their bodies still wearing the clothes they had been injured before, no one would believe that these wounded soldiers who had just lost their combat power.
"This medicine is amazing!"
"It's simply a magic pill!"
This matter was being discussed in every corner of the military camp. The morale that had previously lost due to the strength of the enemy was also rising unprecedentedly.
With such a magical medicine, what else are they afraid of? As long as they don’t die on the spot, they will be able to stand up again in a while.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the enemy is in full swing, and I'm afraid it's going to attack again!" The soldiers who were in charge of waiting and watching suddenly shouted loudly on the high platform in the distance.
The prince fisted hard for a while, stared at the wounded soldiers who had become energetic again, and shouted loudly with excitement: "Prepare to meet the enemy!"
The fighting spirit soared into the sky at this moment!
