"Liu Tou, the food is ready, but most people can't eat it. They feel sick when they see the food." The bandit said nervously.
"Can't eat it?"
Liu Heng suddenly remembered that the first time he committed a murder and saw blood, the mental and spiritual shock suffered by many people made it difficult for many people to adapt for a while. They would lose their appetite and be unable to eat.
This situation can return to normal as long as it takes more time to recover.
However, he didn't have much time for them to recover. If Shi Yunhu didn't give up on intercepting him and the food transport team, it would be another tough battle. If you don't eat, you won't have the strength to fight.
At this time, Li Shuheng said: "This is a normal reaction to killing someone for the first time. If you don't want to eat it, don't eat it. Just recover."
"No, I can give them time to recover. Shi Yunhu may not give us this time." Liu Heng looked at the bandits aside and said, "Except for those guarding the convoy, the rest were taken to the place outside the cart where the smell of blood is the heaviest. No one should be missing.”
"Yes!" The bandit responded, turned around and left.
Liu Heng took the lead to walk out of the cart. Li Shuheng and Chen Xunping behind him looked at each other and hurriedly followed.
Groups of refugee recruits, led by their respective captains, arrived at the place outside the cart where the most dead people were and where the smell of blood was the thickest.
By the light of the fire, Liu Heng saw that each of the refugee recruits in front of him had pale and haggard faces. Some of them had a pungent smell and had obviously just vomited.
These refugee recruits didn't feel anything bad when they were killing people. When the battlefield was being cleaned, many of them spontaneously vomited.
Although this group of refugee recruits looked haggard, and some even stabbed the ground with wooden spears to stand still, these refugee recruits still formed neat teams according to their respective teams.
After seeing them, Liu Heng was very satisfied, which showed that these refugees had accepted and got used to maintaining the formation, which also represented the success of his training of these refugees.
"Sit!" Liu Heng shouted, and then sat down cross-legged.
There was blood mixed with soil on the ground, making it soft and sticky when sitting on it, which made people very uncomfortable.
No one among the refugee recruits hesitated, and they all sat down under Liu Heng's order. Even though they felt sick at the smell of the pungent blood, they still suppressed that no one made a sound.
"Have someone bring the food here." Liu Heng shouted in the direction of the grain truck.
Soon, people from the Archer Battalion brought prepared meals to Liu Heng and the refugee recruits.
Liu Heng raised his hand and grabbed a piece of pancake, put it to his mouth and took a big bite.
The surroundings were filled with the smell of blood that had no time to dissipate. As he ate the pancake, he was surprised that his mouth was filled with the smell of blood and there was no trace of the taste that pancakes should have.
Not to mention the refugee recruits, even he himself felt so sick that he wanted to vomit when he ate the pancakes.
But he knew he couldn't vomit. As the leader of this team, he had to let everyone watch him finish the piece of cake completely.
When Liu Heng swallowed the last bite of pancake, he suppressed the urge to spit it out.
After getting rid of the urge to vomit, he stood up from the ground, suppressed the discomfort in his stomach, and said loudly: "If you don't eat, you will have no strength, and you will have no ability to resist when you are in danger. Don't think that the previous battle has ended." The end, let me tell you, that is just the beginning. There will be more and more fierce battles waiting for you later. If you don’t have enough food and strength, then you will wait to be killed by others. Anyone who doesn’t want to die, pick it up for me. I ate the pancakes in big mouthfuls, and then I continued to lie down on the ground and vomited like the people you killed. I don’t want useless trash here.”
Some refugee recruits began to reach out and grab the pancakes in front of them, put them in their mouths and ate them. Then more and more people grabbed the pancakes and stuffed them into their mouths. Some people wanted to spit them out after taking one bite, and hurriedly blocked them with their hands. Mouth, forcefully swallowed it back.
In this way, all the refugee recruits stopped after eating a piece of cake each.
"I made some wild vegetable soup. Let each of them drink a little and it might make them feel better."
Li Shuheng asked people to carry wooden buckets over, but there were no bowls, only spoons for making soup. One by one, everyone drank a spoonful of wild vegetable soup with a spoon.
When Liu Heng saw that the refugee recruits looked better, he said, "Except for those who need to change their posts, the rest will stay here to rest."
A few refugee recruits got up and left the blood-smelling place because they needed to go on patrol. Most of the people were still sitting here without moving.
As time passed, some of the refugee recruits began to adapt to the smell of blood. They were no longer as disgusting as before, and began to be able to rest peacefully in this bloody place.
Liu Heng felt a lot more relaxed when he saw more and more refugee recruits beginning to adapt. Even if he encountered any danger later, he would have the strength to resist with these refugee recruits.
"Liu Tou, the people sent back by Leader Yang are here." The bandit who spoke was followed by a person.
As soon as this man saw Liu Heng, he stepped out from behind the bandit, faced Liu Heng and said respectfully: "Liu Tou, the archer camp is safe, and there are no ambushes around. Leader Yang asked me to come back and report."
Liu Heng said to the man who came to deliver the letter: "You go down and have something to eat first, and then follow the team back to the camp."
The man who delivered the letter responded and stepped back.
"Notify everyone and prepare to return to the camp." Liu Heng ordered.
The refugee recruits who were resting on the ground all stood up and moved into a team of thirty people. Each team got busy under the leadership of their respective corps commanders.
Since the team that drove the cart before was taken away by Yang Yuan, a new team of refugee recruits replaced them, yoking the animals to the cart and driving the animals on the road.
Along the way, the convoy would receive news from the Archer Camp every mile or so. At the same time, Liu Heng also kept arranging people to explore the road ahead.
At midnight, Liu Heng and the cart carrying grain finally returned to the Archer Camp, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, before the food could be unloaded from the car, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded outside the camp.
"alert!"
A sergeant guarding the camp outside shouted a warning to the others.
A small team of tributary recruits ran out of the Archer Camp one after another, holding wooden spears and confronting the horse team outside the camp.
In the night, sharp spear points were pointed at the cavalry. These refugee recruits armed with wooden spears did not even take a step back because of the threat posed by the cavalry.
Seeing this scene, Ma Yunjiu, who was riding on horseback, frowned and said softly: "I didn't expect that it took him ten days to train such an elite soldier."
He dared to confront his cavalry without falling behind in terms of momentum. The reason for this was that he knew that it had something to do with the fact that these refugees had killed people and seen blood tonight, but more importantly, these refugees had learned to line up and not Another dish of loose sand.
"What has been accomplished?" the deputy next to Ma Yunjiu asked in confusion.
"It's nothing." Ma Yunjiu said, "There is no need to go in the Archer Camp. Let's wait here for the leader of the Archer Camp to come out."
Not long after, Liu Heng, Li Shuheng and others walked out of the camp, and the refugee recruits appeared behind them.
"Captain Ma," Li Shuheng said, "I wonder why Leader Ma came to our archer camp so late with his troops?"
