Blood Lord of War

Chapter 55 Return to Raging Waves City

The horse bandits left nothing for Janna, they took all the goods and ransacked the caravan's belongings.

After they left, Janna and her party stood alone on the grass, the wounded were still moaning in pain, and the survivors didn't feel the joy of the rest of their lives, and fear still surrounded their hearts.

There are traces of the fierce battle all around, countless arrows stuck in the ground, several poor horses fell on the grass not far away, and were hit by several arrows, one of them was still alive, wheezing and panting in pain. gas.

No one spoke, only someone crying could be heard.

The caravan members who were still able to move gathered around Janna, and they were bewildered. Someone asked, "Captain, what should we do now?"

The whip thrown by the saber cut Janna's face like a knife, and half of her face was stained red with blood.

Janna knew that she must not fall down at this time, the rest of the people were still counting on her, and she would bring everyone out of this barren grassland.

"Treat the wounded first, the distance to Raging City is closer from here, let's go back to Raging City." Janna said to the other members with firm eyes.

Janna's composure was like a shot in the arm, and the other caravan members also regained a bit of fighting spirit, and they immediately started to act.

At this time, Wu Li was lying on the grass, his face was pale, and he asked Janna in pain: "Captain, am I... dying?"

"No, you won't die, I won't let you die." Janna's tone was very affirmative, she took out gauze from her pocket, and immediately began to bandage Woolley's wound.

While bandaging, she comforted Woolley:
"Be patient, when we arrive at Raging Waves City, the baron will rescue you. Then lie on the bed for a week, and you will be able to go back to see your wife alive and well."

Janna's movements were very fast. It was not the first time for her to bandage someone's wound, so she was very skilled in bandaging.

After wrapping up, she raised her head and shouted to the other two caravan members, "Kabsi, Jaroda, come and carry Woolley."

The two young men heard this, and immediately rushed over with a stretcher.

Then, Janna counted the casualties. In the caravan of 50 people, six were killed, eight were seriously injured, and 16 were slightly injured, more than half of the casualties.

The comrades who died in battle were carried together and arranged in a row on the grass.

Janna looked at them, and the familiar voice and smile seemed to be still in front of her eyes. She felt a great sadness, as if her heart had been pierced by a sword, and the pain made her unable to breathe.

"Leave them here first, we'll take them back later."

Janna made this decision in pain. She had no choice but to give priority to ensuring that the living could continue to live, and the dead could only temporarily wrong them.

……

At sunset, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed Raging Waves City in a lazy orange color. The villagers who went out to work rushed back to the city one after another. Smoke curled up from the chimneys of houses, and the entire Raging Waves City was peaceful and peaceful.

Two sentry towers were newly built on both sides behind the city gate, and a half-elf stood in each of them to guard them.

Because half-elves have better eyesight than ordinary people, especially at night, half-elves are generally responsible for guarding at night.The two half-elves had just taken over from the iron guards who were in charge of the day.

Standing guard is not an interesting thing, a half-elf let out a big yawn out of boredom.

Suddenly, he saw a group of people appearing on the road in the distance directly in front of the city gate.

"Hey, look over there!" the half-elf shouted over his shoulder to his companion.

His companion also spotted this group of people. He narrowed his eyes and took a closer look.At the head of the gang was a young woman wearing a red turban.

He immediately said in surprise: "It seems to be...Miss Janna!"

……

After receiving the half-elf's report, Robin rushed to the city gate with Simon and Aisha. Seeing that Janna's caravan suffered heavy casualties, his expression darkened instantly.

Seeing Robin coming, Janna seemed to have finally found her backbone. She hurried to Robin and said anxiously, "Lord Baron, we need help."

"What's going on?" Robin asked, frowning.

Janna's eyes were red, and her voice was crying: "We have encountered a horse bandit."

Robin didn't ask any more questions: "Save people first."

He asked Simon to lead people to place the wounded in the open space in front of the lord's mansion first, and ordered Aisha to fetch moon water, and the seriously wounded must be rescued.

Under the command of the lord, everyone immediately got busy.

Aisha ran back with her skirt in hand, and quickly brought back a bottle of moon water. She distributed some to each wounded according to the severity of the injury. The severely wounded could get half a cup, and the lightly wounded could only get one cup. .

Because Jana and the others did not engage in close combat with the horse bandits at all, the two sides only had a bow and arrow exchange, so all the wounded were arrow wounds, and the difference in severity of the injuries was only in which part of the arrow was hit, or how many arrows were hit.

Fearing that pulling out the arrow would worsen the wound or bleed profusely, many of the wounded did not even pull out the arrowhead that had penetrated their body, but simply broke the shaft.

When the half-elf treated the wounded, they would first feed the wounded moon water, and then quickly pull out the arrow.

Some arrowheads penetrated too deep into the flesh, and after the arrow shaft was broken, only a short section was left exposed, which could not be grasped by hand and could only be pulled out forcefully with tweezers.

The process of pulling out the arrows was quite painful. There were screams of pain at the scene of the treatment, and the screams of the wounded were piercing. Pulling out the arrows meant gouging out their flesh.

Because the horse bandits plundered caravans, caravans are generally not equipped with heavy armor, so the arrows they use are big and thick. Although the armor-piercing ability is average, the wounds caused to the human body are even greater after being shot. Forcibly pulling it out from the body will take away a large piece of flesh and blood, and blood will spurt out of the wound immediately.

Such a large wound is more difficult to heal, and it is more difficult to treat it. If there is no good medical condition, even if the arrow is pulled out, it will be difficult to survive. The wounded will either die of bleeding or wound infection.

At this time, we can see that the moon water is powerful, and its effect can be called a miracle.

After taking it, the injuries of all the wounded stabilized immediately, the arrow wounds of the slightly wounded quickly healed, and several seriously wounded also recovered their lives.

Especially Woolley, who was obviously dying due to excessive blood loss, and was rescued by the moon water again, and Janna hugged Aisha happily.

It was the first time for Janna to see moon water, and she was dumbfounded by the powerful effect of this mysterious potion.

She asked Robin in disbelief: "What is this? Advanced healing potion? Blessed holy water? Dragon's blood potion?"

Robin smiled: "No, it's called moon water."

Then, the half-elves brought tents, and they built a temporary camp in the open space. Several tents were quickly erected, allowing the caravan members to have a shelter tonight.

Then, the iron guard women brought warm noodles and hot soup.

The members of the caravan were already hungry, and each of them had bread in one hand and hot soup in the other, and the warm food was fed into their stomachs, which finally made them feel alive again.

After all the work is done, everyone can finally rest.

Robin and Janna walked out of the caravan's temporary camp.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, the night sky was dotted with stars, and the cool evening wind blew across the distant grassland, making a "rustling" sound.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Robin asked with a gloomy face.

Janna looked up at Robin's face, she finally couldn't hold back anymore, tears welled up in her eyes and fell down patter.

She completed her task and brought the remaining people to Rage City, so that they all survived.

On the way to escape, she has been suppressing the grief in her heart. In order to give others confidence, she must try to put on a steady appearance.

Now, she can finally cry.

Janna threw herself into Robin's arms, this broad and hard chest was her only support.

Tears soon soaked Robin's chest. He was a stupid person. He didn't know what to say to comfort him at this moment. He could only touch Janna's head as gently as possible and tell her: "Don't be afraid, I am here."

After crying for a long time, Janna finally recovered her emotions slowly.

She left Robin's chest with some reluctance, wiped her red eyes from crying, and said to Robin, "It's the Earl of the Saber."
