Zhao Ziliang was covered in blood and stood on the grass holding a horizontal knife.
The arrow shaft stuck in his back shook as he panted.
He stuck the horizontal knife on the ground, gritted his teeth, grabbed the arrow shaft behind his back and pulled it out hard.
Severe pain hit him, his vision went dark, and he almost fell to the ground.
After the pain for a while, he finally recovered.
He took off the tattered Mingguang Armor, took off his linen underwear and wrapped it around the wound on his back.
At this time, another stream of blood flowed from the finger on the thumb of his right hand.
The cool air traveled along the arm through the shoulder armor and reached the arrow wound.
The wound felt numb and itchy again, and the pain soon disappeared.
Zhao Ziliang was shocked for a while, and when he touched it with his hand, he found a naked piece of flesh, and the wound was gone.
This shocked him even more.
He also remembered that when he fought with the Tuqishi cavalry before, after the opponent was killed, there would be green on the body.
The light was inhaled by the finger.
When he was injured, the cool air flowed out from the finger and reached the wound.
The wound soon stopped hurting.
Why?
He remembered that his right rib and chest had been severely injured one after another.
He looked down and saw that there were no traces of injury on his chest or ribs.
Could it be that the cool air flowing out of the finger had a special effect on healing injuries quickly?
In order to test his idea, Zhao Ziliang pulled out a short knife from the outside of his calf, gritted his teeth and used the knife to make a cut on the palm of his left hand.
Sure enough, I felt another stream of cool air flowing out of the wrench along the arm, passing through the shoulder and reaching the wound on my left arm.
I felt that the wound was also numb and itchy, and the wound was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"This, this, this" Zhao Ziliang looked at this scene and felt horrified.
But he soon became ecstatic.
If the thumb ring always had this effect, wouldn't he not have to worry about being injured every time he fought in the future?
As long as he ensured that he would not be killed at once, it would be fine.
But when he saw the corpses on the ground, whether they were the corpses of his own men or the corpses of the cavalry, his excitement suddenly stopped, and instead he just sighed deeply: "This battle was miserable."
After sighing, he calmed down and collected all the leather armor, leather helmets, weapons, bows and arrows of the Tuoqishi cavalry.
These were all trophies and could be sold for money.
Then he rode on his war horse and gathered up all the scattered war horses, together with the sudden cavalry, a total of thirty-nine.
In order to prevent others from discovering his secrets, he did not put all the trophies into the thumb space, but only put some valuable jewelry into the thumb space, and let the other trophies be carried by the war horses.
Finally, he collected the bodies of his comrades.
When he went to move Tie Er's body, he found that Tie Er was still alive.
This made him excited.
He quickly bandaged Tie Er's wound and then went to check the bodies of other comrades.
It was also discovered that Lu Shitou was not dead yet, this guy was only seriously injured and passed out.
After some inspection, except for Lu Shitou and Tie Er, who were seriously injured and unconscious, the other seven people were all killed in the battle.
He carried all the corpses of Tie Er, Lu Shitou, other soldiers and all the Tuo Shi cavalrymen on horseback.
Get on, then mount the war horse and drive the horses towards Tuoyun Castle.
On his way back to the fort, Zhao Ziliang encountered a group of cavalry sent by Yuan Qing, the chairman of Tuoyunbao, to meet them.
Sangouzi, who had previously escorted the envoy to Tuoyunbao, was also among them.
Sangouzi saw that the armor on Zhao Ziliang's chest had been cut open, and he quickly rode forward and asked with concern: "Chief, are you okay?"
Zhao Ziliang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I'm fine.
Tie Er and Lu Shitou were seriously injured, and the other brothers were all killed."
Looking at the cold corpses on the horse, Sangouzi did not cry, but remained silent.

Zhao Ziliang cupped his fists at the team leader Huo Kan who came to greet him and said, "Thank you very much, Mr.
Huo, for bringing someone to meet you."
The military system of the Tang Dynasty was that a captain led ten soldiers, a group leader led five soldiers, a team led three groups, and a battalion or regiment had five teams, led by a school lieutenant.
However, in the case of Tuoyunbao, it was directly under the command of a commander.
Under the jurisdiction of Lezhen.
Yuan Qing, the chairman of Toyunbao Bao, is a team leader, and Huo Kan, the team leader, is a short and sturdy man with a face full of flesh.
Huo Kan cupped his fists and replied: "We are all brothers, why are you so polite?"
He looked at the corpses of the Tuqi Shi cavalry carried on the dozens of horses in front of him, and said with some surprise and envy: "The ten of you killed thirty Tuqi Shi cavalry head-on, and seven of them were killed.
This achievement is unprecedented.
I'm afraid we are rare in the four towns of Anxi, and you also protected Mohedagan's messenger.
This time you have made a great contribution.
I'm afraid you will be on an equal footing with me when you go back."
Zhao Ziliang couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I, the commander, only have one soldier left, and I don't know if the other two will survive.
The price is too high for the others."
"Guarding at the border is like wearing your head in your belt.
Promotion depends on your true ability, and your fame and honors are earned with your life and death.
Besides, no immortal general will inevitably die in battle. , not to mention us little soldiers."
Huo Kan said, riding his horse over and patting Zhao Ziliang on the shoulder, understanding Zhao Ziliang's mood.
Although he was somewhat envious of Zhao Ziliang's achievements this time, he was not jealous.
Toyun Castle.
Toyun Castle is built on the Tuoyun Mountain Pass, next to the flowing Irkeshtan River.
Toyun Castle is a checkpoint and a fortress with two gates in the northwest and southeast, and the road to the east and west passes through it.
Inside Toyun Castle.
The chairman of the fort, Yun Qing, had already received the news and personally led his people to greet him in front of the fort gate.
Both sides of the fort gate were filled with soldiers with swords and guns.
Ten cavalry faced off against the sudden cavalry, and thirty cavalry were killed, killing seven and seriously injuring two.
It is very rare to achieve such a result in such a small-scale battle, especially when there is a huge disparity in strength. , this is the reason why Xi Yunqing came out of the city gate to greet him.
Approaching the gate of the fort, Zhao Ziliang dismounted and walked to Xi Yunqing's promotion, clasped his fists, bowed and said solemnly: "Reporting to the Lord of the fort, Chief Zhao Ziliang encountered thirty cavalrymen while leading his troops on patrol, and the other party was chasing the messenger of Mohe Dagan.
Invaded our territory, we failed to persuade them to retreat, and a battle broke out between the two sides.
Seven of our people were killed and two were seriously injured.
The other party's entire army was wiped out.
We are now returning to report to the Lord of the fort."
Xi Yunqing is also wearing bright light armor.
He is seven feet tall and as strong as an ox.
Although he is not as tall as Zhao Ziliang, he is still extremely burly.
After hearing what Zhao Ziliang said, he nodded with great satisfaction and said: "Okay, okay, I've heard everything.
It didn't embarrass me, Xi Yunqing.
When faced with the same situation next time, you don't need to be polite to them.
You will take action when it's time to take action." , Let Tuqishi’s bunch of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves have a long memory.”
Zhao Ziliang said quickly: "Yes, Bishop Bao's teachings, Ziliang will bear them in mind."
Xi Yunqing took great advantage of Zhao Ziliang's words and said: "Your contribution is not small this time.
I will truthfully report it to the guarding envoy General Meng."
Zhao Ziliang was born in the 21st century, and he has long known that whether in official circles or the military, promotion is not based on ability, but whether he can be appreciated by the superior.
If the superior appreciates it, the chance of promotion will be greater. many.
He immediately flattered him and said: "The reason why my subordinates achieved such a record this time has something to do with the appreciation and teachings of the castle master and Huo Tou'er.

Thank you to the castle master and Huo Tou'er."
Xi Yunqing and Huo Kan felt quite comfortable after listening to Zhao Ziliang's words.
They were not inexperienced people, and they were very useful to Zhao Ziliang's words.
Both of them had smiles on their faces, thinking about this guy Zhao Ziliang.
He is so good at talking, this kind of person can be promoted.
Xi Yunqing said: "I can't give you any rewards, but Jin Daya, the leader of the third group, told me a few days ago that he is old, homesick, and wants to retire and return to his hometown.
I have already agreed.
After he leaves, I I will recommend you to General Fumeng to take over the position of captain of the third group.
From now on, you will temporarily act as captain of the third group.
You will officially take up the post after the appointment from above."
Zhao Zi was secretly overjoyed and immediately said: "Thank you for the promotion, Lord of the fort.
I will never forget that I will fulfill my duties, share the worries of the fort, and guard this border for the Tang Dynasty."
At this point, Zhao Ziliang changed the topic and said: "Fortress Master, my brothers all died in battle to defend the borders of the Tang Dynasty.
They died well, and I want to bury their bodies next to them."
On the top of the mountain, we will erect monuments and legends for them, so that their heroic spirits can protect us and stay here forever to frighten the unscrupulous people who peek into our land of the Tang Dynasty."
Everyone was in awe after hearing this, and Xi Yunqing even said solemnly: "Okay, the Lord of this castle has agreed.
From now on, all the soldiers who guard here will be buried on the nearby hillside after they die in battle, and they will continue to fight against the barbarians with us."
Zhao Ziliang said loudly: "Thank you to the Lord of the fort for the success, the Lord of the fort is wise":
