The general arrived on the scene together with a group of soldiers. Braking their horses suddenly
they observed the scene.
"What has happened?"
Qing Yu and Xue saluted from their place.
"General reporting, I arrived and it became suspicious that the road was blocked when he redirected the horse, Sub General Yu had already arrived, I commented on my supposition and my feeling that someone was watching us when some masked men came out from our sides encircling us "
"Very well done, are you alright?"
Qing Yu was the first to speak "No sir"
Xue examined herself for injuries and realized that an enemy had cut her arm, she parted the cloth a bit from his arm to see how bad it was. "Reporting to the general only a not very serious cut on the arm, I just reported"
"How are you hurt?"
General Huo dismounted from his horse, and hurriedly approached taking Xue's arm and examining it carefully for a few moments "how can you not take care of yourself, you left the battlefield unscathed and a surprise attack wounds you"
Xue tried to contain his laughter in a failed attempt, he began to laugh, General Huo raised his face and looked directly into her eyes, in them there was a flash that could only be seen in Xue after a battles and a sudden attack, a flash of innocence, of hope and happiness.
"what is funny?"
Xue, laughing, replied "IT'S funny, the fact that they didn't hurt me on the battlefield but when I was out of it"
The General turned to see Qing Yu as if looking for meaning or an answer in his gaze but he was just as shocked and his confusion could be seen on his face.
Xue took the captain's hands and calmed him down with a sweet look "General, I'm fine, we have to find another way to go back and tend to the wounded."
"you're right we've already lost a lot of time, let´s get going"
"DA FENG!" The black horse that he had taken from the General of the enemy army approached quickly and with a jump Xue mounted it
"I've already grasped how to do it" he smiled once more showing his pearly white teeth.
"Da Feng?"
"What? He he said he wanted to be called that, it was a very serious discussion on the way"
"But why Da Feng?"
"Simple because it runs so fast that I feel a lot of wind"
The general Huo shook his head "well let's head towards the second main road so we will arrive before dark, we just hope they don't forestall us a second time"
The road to the camp loomed before them after a day and a half's journey had reached the camp.
Xue went to the medioc's tent to ask for some bandages and akgo of medicine for the cut of his arm.
"Hey doc, like this one, would you mind giving me some medicine and some bandages for my arm?"
"Take them they are in the box on the right"
Xue took some medicine and a bandage and applied the medicine and then with a little pressure tied the bandage to her arm
"Doctor do you need help to tend to the injured?"
"The truth is that if there are many injured but not someone else who knows about medicine, who?"
"If he explains to me how I can help him even a little bit"
a "It would not be bad but at the moment the only thing you know how to treat are wounds, so help me clean and bandage the less serious wounds and those that bleed a lot with a bandage apply pressure on it and then bandage it as tightly as possible"
"Understood doctor"
Xue and the doctor were checking the wounded one after the other without stopping, tired and hungry, it was time for dinner, when Sub General Yu entered and gave them their corresponding food ration and then left, Xue and the doctor did not eat. not a mouthful of cry for continuing to care for the wounded.
The most worrying case had just arrived the soldiers who were in charge of burying the bodies of the fallen and collecting the weapons from the field that could still be used, they arrived in a hurry with a soldier who was miraculously breathing and semi-conscious.
"Doctor is alive we found him under some bodies of enemy soldiers, he still has a pulse"
"Fast, Bring him inside"
