Dingbei Hou's doctor brother

"Where have you been for the past half hour? It took me so long to find you." Su Chengfeng said as his eyes fell on Lu Ziqing's somewhat pale face.

The sudden interruption caused the needle to prick his body again. Lu Ziqing covered his chest, frowned and hissed.

"You, you're so jumpy and rude."

"What's wrong with you?"

Su Chengfeng subconsciously supported him, looked up and down, front and back, but didn't notice anything wrong.

It was not until Lu Ziqing took off his coat that he saw two needles firmly inserted into his chest, with only the tip of one of them sticking out.

"Are you injured?" Su Chengfeng's eyebrows immediately raised, "Who did it?"

"I don't know who they are either."

"you do not……"

"They're all covered up, so I can't see their faces." Lu Ziqing rested his elbows on the small table on the bed. "From what he was saying, they should be local residents."

As he spoke, Su Chengfeng had already taken out the anesthetic powder from the medicine box, sprinkled it on the wound, and quickly pulled out the first needle. The other one was more troublesome.

"This needle has penetrated deep into the lungs. To remove it, the skin must be expanded."

"Do as you say."

Su Chengfeng changed a small knife, gently cut the skin a little, and blood began to seep out.

He inserted the small forceps into the incision, carefully grasped the needle tip, and slowly pulled it out.

The wound looked small, but the needle that was taken out was three inches long.

"Luckily, this needle isn't poisonous." Su Chengfeng glanced at him, "Otherwise, I'd have to offer my condolences to you. Where have you been?"

This man always spoke without restraint and acted rudely. Lu Ziqing was used to it. He glanced at him helplessly.

"I was just out for a walk and encountered soldiers bullying civilians. I was injured by a few masked men."

"Let's go for a walk?" Su Chengfeng raised his voice a few degrees.

"How dare you say that? Where do you think we are? This is grassland, patrolled by soldiers everywhere. We just fought a battle. Aren't you afraid of retaliation? You dare to run around alone?"

Lu Ziqing did not respond, but just listened quietly to the concerned complaints.

A moment.

He finally spoke, "Thank you."

Su Chengfeng didn't even look up and said directly, "Stop it, it's so corny."

Because of the death of more than a dozen soldiers, the people in the village to the east were massacred. The crowd was in chaos and ran in all directions screaming.

There were dead bodies, broken limbs and bloodstains everywhere in front and behind the tent. A leading general sat high on his horse, holding a sword and shouting.

"Everything here today depends on your ability. Take what you need. Kill them!"

"Yes!" the soldiers answered in unison.

Exhausted by months of life and death experiences, the soldiers seemed to have found an outlet for their anger, and they killed the fleeing crowd with increasing enthusiasm.

Regardless of gender, age or status, they were all hacked to death and screamed in agony.

In just half an hour, the relatively safe lives of the civilians of the Chishuo tribe were instantly disrupted.

However, in this chaos and panic, there was a woman and a group of men who were fighting hard.

It was Ana and her subordinates.

"Kill! Fight them!"

They concentrated all their anger on their scimitars and fought to the death.

The grassland was filled with people fleeing in panic.

Inside the big tent.

As soon as Xiao Yangang finished discussing matters with the generals of various armies, a soldier came to report.

"General, a large group of people were spotted fleeing a mile away."

"Can you see who it is?" Xiao Yan asked.

"Judging from their attire, they should be ordinary people."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present looked at each other and understood what he meant.

Yang Zhounan looked at Xiao Yan from the side, his expression gloomy, "I'm afraid..."

Xiao Yan stood up, walked out of the military camp with a cold face, and rode his horse eastward.

The big tent in the village was burned down, the whole place was in ruins, and there were dead bodies everywhere.

Each soldier was holding a pile of jade and agate in his arms, laughing as he went in and out of the tents.

Two rows of cavalry were the first to disperse and surround the two sides. Xiao Yan reined in his horse, raised his horse's hooves and neighed a few times, and asked in a cold voice.

"Who ordered the massacre of the city?"

Before the soldiers woke up from their excitement, they found themselves surrounded by heavy troops, and they were confused and murmured to each other.

"Who is this person? Do you know him?"

"do not know."

"I guess the Zhongzhou Army also wants to make a killing."

"Who cares who it is? Don't let them interfere with my fortune-making. The higher-ups have already agreed. Who dares to control us?"

"........."

The soldiers all talked at once, looked down upon the newcomers, and went back into the tent.

This posture made Yang Zhounan's temper flare up, and he drew his sword and shouted.

"Are you all deaf? If you don't answer, I'll kill you on the spot."

When the soldiers on both sides saw the deputy general draw his sword, they also drew their swords and attacked.

The soldiers then sensed the danger and surrounded the man who was looking for trouble.

"who are you?"

A middle-aged lieutenant general walked out of the crowd with a somewhat unfriendly expression.

Xiao Yan did not respond, nor did he look at the lieutenant general. His eyes swept over the crowd.

They all look frivolous and behave like bandits.

How can these be called disciplined and well-trained soldiers?

They looked like a group of brutal bandits.

A moment.

He spoke calmly and calmly, "I am Xiao Yan, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition appointed by the Emperor."

Xiao Yan? General?

Upon hearing the identity of the visitor, the soldiers looked at each other and whispered, then hesitated and took a few steps back.

The lieutenant general frowned and looked him up and down.

"You said you were a general, what's your proof?"

Yang Zhounan was about to say something when he was stopped by the person next to him.

Xiao Yan dismounted from his horse, walked forward slowly, took out the token from his bosom and showed it to the lieutenant general.

"Can you see clearly?"

The big words "Daning General's Order" flashed through the lieutenant general's mind quickly.

However, he only narrowed his eyes slightly, without showing much surprise. It was unclear whether he really didn't know her or was pretending.

The lieutenant general looked at Xiao Yan calmly and said, "Even if you are the commander-in-chief, you can't erase the hard work of our brothers and stop us from getting some money for our lives, right?"

Xiao Yan looked down at him, "So, you want to disobey military orders?"

"Disobeying military orders?" The lieutenant general curled his lips.

"I dare not. I just think that those of us who are fighting so hard on the front lines should be rewarded by the general. Don't let our brothers feel disappointed."

"If you want a reward, petition the Emperor based on your military achievements. If you try to use rewards as an excuse to cause unwarranted killing, I've already said that those who disobey my orders will be executed!"

Xiao Yan's eyes were cold and sharp as he walked in the middle of the crowd, holding a sword.

"I don't care what kind of general you are. Since the emperor has appointed me as the general, I have the final say. I will not kill those who surrender when a city is broken, and I will not take lives when seizing property. This is my rule."

"If you break the rules, you have to follow the rules. This is my rule, take everything away."

Are you serious?

The soldiers were so frightened by this general whom they met for the first time that they dropped all the pearls and agates in their hands. They immediately knelt on the ground, clasped their hands together and begged for mercy.

The lieutenant general seemed to have just woken up from a dream, and his previous arrogance had faded. He stood there, still trying to maintain some presence.

"I am General Guo's man, you can't kill me."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan slowly stood behind him, put his hand on one of his shoulders, leaned closer, and whispered.

"I will definitely take your head today. As for General Guo, you can let him come to me."

After he finished speaking, he curled the corners of his mouth slightly, patted the lieutenant general's shoulder lightly and left.

"Tied!"

The lieutenant general swallowed hard, and before he could react, Yang Zhounan's knife was already on his neck.

Several soldiers surrounded the man and detained him, and the lieutenant general's psychological defenses finally collapsed.

He glared at me, his neck veins popped out, and he shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Xiao Yan, you dare to kill me? Killing me would mean you are openly opposing General Guo. Let me go... Xiao Yan..."

Strike while the iron is hot, Yang Zhounan captured nearly 80 generals and soldiers present and took them into custody.

After Xiao Yan came back, he went straight to the shooting range. Yang Zhounan followed him and took out a bow, pulled it and threw it to him.

"What are you going to do with those people?"

Xiao Yan took the bow swiftly, put the arrow on the string, inserted the bowstring into the halberd, pulled it apart suddenly, and aimed at the target in the distance.

"Just do it as usual. The tiger will only behave itself if its sharp teeth and claws are plucked out."

As soon as he let go, the arrow flew out and hit the center of the bull's eye.

Just as he was about to take the second arrow, he saw Lu Ziqing coming towards him with a medicine box.
