The Female Supporting Role Shows Out

Chapter 73: The God of War (19)

No matter how the chaos was in the capital and the frontier, Lin Dan would never be there to help anymore. After she fell into the mountain ravine and was caught in the torrent stream, she was consecutively hit by the huge rocks in the riverbed. She had bone fractures all over her body, and she had lost the ability to move. Fortunately, she was lucky enough to be washed to shoal by the current and rescued by several kind-hearted people, which saved her life.

These people were the villagers at the border. They found that although Lin Dan was a woman, she was wearing a military uniform. Her sleeves and collar were embroidered with the totem of the Western army. They definitely didn't dare to refuse to help her. If it weren't for the Western army, they would have died and could even return to their homeland.

They immediately carried her back to their village. Since she was a woman and it was inconvenient to take care of her, they settled her in a widow's house. Each household sent a few bowls of corn to the widow as the cost of curing her. The widow had a son. He had just turned eight years old and was able to guard in front of the bed.

"Sister, you recovered so fast! The doctor said that if an ordinary person injured like you, he can't get out of bed within ten to fifteen days." A three-foot-tall kid ran into the room with a bowl of remedy. He looked cute.

After Lin Dan took the bowl and drank it up, she said in a soft voice, "I'm fine now. Don't need to decoct the medicine anymore, so as not to waste the money."

The kid shook her head and said, "These herbs were picked by Doctor Meng himself. Just need to boil them with water after drying. It doesn't cost much. Sister, are you leaving? "

Lin Dan rubbed his head and said gently, "I will leave once I recover. I can't be a freeloader."

The kid's face turned red, and he waved his hand, "You're not a freeloader. Mom said, you are a soldier. It's our duty to help you so that you can protect us. Sister, can we go with you? "

"Y'all live well here. Why want to leave?" These days, Lin Dan often wandered around the village and found that the winter wheat was sown in the field. It was the earing season. By looking at the green piece of land, the scene was breathtaking. One or two months later, the villagers would have a good harvest. If they left at this time, this season's food would be gone, and they would starve to death.

The kid frowned and said bitterly, "General Lin Dan is gone. The Huns, driven away by General Lin Dan, allied with the other four Hu tribes and attacked Hetao. They came back to plunder us. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave when it's the harvest season."

The Huns had no production, and their rations were all dependent on looting. After all the trouble they had been through, the village was finally rebuilt. They thought that they could live a peaceful life under the protection of General Lin Dan, but they didn't expect that she would be assassinated by the assassins, and her body was nowhere to be found. Now the emperor was investigating the origin of those assassins. Some said that they were the daredevils of the several princes in the court; some said that they were the spies of the Huns. But no matter who they were, they were far away from the people at the border, where they only knew that their God of War was dead. Their good days were destroyed, and they had no home to return.

"Sister, you better leave as soon as possible. You are from the Western army. If the Huns know that, they will definitely come to kill you. Yesterday, the village head warned us not to reveal the news that you were recuperating in the village. When nightfall, you should leave quietly, and no one would know. My mother and I won't follow you. We don't want to be a burden to you." The kid climbed onto the bed and took out Lin Dan's belongings.

Looking at the clean black military uniform, a dark light flashed across Lin Dan's eyes. She rubbed the kid's head and said firmly, "Don't worry. I won't let the Huns cause trouble to y'all again."

The kid's eyes turned red; he was reluctant to let her leave. When Lin Dan was lying on the bed and unable to move, she told him the war story at the frontier every day. It was delightful to hear!

While they were talking, the horse's hooves and villagers' screams came from outside, "Oh no! The Huns are here. Everyone, quickly hide!"

Before the kid could react, his mother had already rushed in and carried him. Then she went to help Lin Dan up and said hurriedly, "Hurry up, hurry up, quickly hide in the cellar. The Huns are here!"

"Why hide when the Huns are here? Lin Dan quickly put on her military uniform and strode out. When she passed the yard's gate, she picked up a stick as thick as an arm. All the villagers hid; only a few young men were left standing on a tower. They were holding the self-made bows and arrows in their hands and staring at the dozen black dots that were approaching.

The Huns were skilled at riding horses. They rode over in a group. It was difficult for ordinary people to fight against them as they were like evil spirits in the border area. They didn't even dismount from their horses. They would just chop and shoot at anyone they saw. They could basically kill all the villagers by running back and forth in the village for a few rounds. Then, they would dismount from their horses and plunder the spoils. If they run into any women or children, they would just take them back as slaves or kill them. In their eyes, the people from the central region were like animals.

How could the people at the border not hate being slaughtered in such a way? Today, even if they were to fight to the death, they had to drag a few Huns to die with them.

"Eh? Is she the soldier who stayed at the widow Zhao house? Why did she come out?" A strong man immediately ran to the window and called anxiously, "Hey, the Huns is approaching. Come back quickly!"

Lin Dan looked back at them and waved her hand calmly. Then, when she passed by one of the houses, she took a wooden pot lid and used it as a shield.

Seeing her holding a wooden stick in one hand and a wooden plank in the other, as if she was going to fight with the Huns, the villagers could not help but feel anxious. The Huns were riding on their horses and holding a double-edged machete, where was not something that an ordinary stick could deal with. This military woman was too reckless! Several men ran down from the tower and wanted to pull her back, but they saw a few arrows flying across the sky, right in front of them; They quickly hid behind the gate.

Several arrows pierced at the side of Lin Dan's feet, but she didn't even frown. It seemed that these Huns had discovered that she was a woman, so they did not intend to kill her but was left her to be tortured later.

With these thoughts in their mind, the Huns came close to her and said in broken Han language, "Ah Da, you have good eyesight. This person is indeed a woman, and she is pretty. You can bring her back to your service. Let her shepherd the cattle and sheep in the day and ride her as a horse at night. How wonderful is it!"

"Ha ha ha, she is mine. No one is allowed to snatch from me!" The most masculine man laughed wildly.

Those men whipped their horses as they approached; the villagers were so terrified. They shouted through the gate, "Hey, quickly run. Why are you still standing there?" If possible, they wanted to dissect the woman's brain to see what she was thinking. But, no matter how skillful you are, you are only a human and unarmed. Can you fight against this group of Huns who ride on horses with swords?

In order to save that military woman, they kept shooting arrows at the Huns. But their bows were very shoddy, and their accuracy and range were minimal. They couldn't pierce through the armor suit of the Huns at all. Some of the arrows that fell to the ground couldn't even penetrate through the soil.

All of a sudden, the villagers were a little desperate. Seeing that the Huns bent down and were about to get the military woman on horseback. They had no time to care about anything; They quickly opened the door and barged out, trying to save her. At this moment, the military woman, who was standing there, raised the stick in her hand. She hit hard on the man's arm, who was trying to catch her.

The faint sound of bone cracks was masked by the screams of the man. He tumbled down from the horse with a wail, and the military woman jumped on the back of the horse at speed and replaced him. Before the other men could react, she hit their heads with the stick one after another and fell to the ground.

The light wooden sticks used to be used as firewood seemed to weigh a thousand pounds in her hand. She smashed the brains of these men into pieces, and blood spurted out. Then, after falling off the horse, their legs twitched and died.

It was not until then that the several Huns who were far away realized that they had encountered a formidable opponent. They quickly gather together. The military woman threw away the stick and wooden plank, took a machete from one of the corpses, and charged forward. She bent down, leaned over, moved, and jumped on the horseback as nimbly as on the flat ground.

Those Huns waved their swords violently, but they couldn't even hit her once. On the contrary, she chopped off a head as soon as she made a move. After half an hour, the ground was scattered with heads everywhere; A few headless corpses were still on the back of the moving horses. The blood spurted out from the broken part of their necks. The woman was sitting in the center of several bloody pillars. Her face was as cold as ice, and her eyes were as dark as pools. The machete in her hand had already been soaked in blood, emitting a strange red glow.

To be honest, the scene was really terrifying. The villagers hiding in the tower ran down after a long time and looked at her in awe.

"Who, who are you?" The leading villager gulped secretly. They wandered on the edge of life and death all year round and used to the cruel means of the Huns. How could they fail to see Lin Dan's strength? In the blink of an eye, she had killed more than a dozen Huns' men without a sweat, and her hair was still tidy. In addition, her delicate features and cold and compelling aura made it clear that she was that legendary General Lin Dan!

No, she was far more heroic and braver than in the legend, making the villagers tremble with excitement.

"Pile up the corpses and put them at the entrance of the village. Is there any iron wire? Give me a roll." Lin Dan said calmly, "Each time the Huns come out to plunder, they will be divided into several groups. These people are in the lead, and the army is still behind."

Seeing the fear on the villagers' faces, she added, "There's no need to be afraid. The Huns are not good enough. I will just kill them once they're here. So there's nothing to be worried about."

Seeing her speak so lightly, everyone calmed down. They moved the corpses and found iron wire. Half an hour later, there were piles of corpses in front of Lin Dan's horse. The iron wire was tied between the two big trees at the village entrance by her, and she adjusted the height of it several times.

After that, she sat on the horse and waited for the Huns. The rest of the villagers hid in nearby houses.

The hooves' sound of the Huns was getting closer. Soon, they galloped over the slope and reached the entrance of the village. Seeing piles of corpses on the ground, they raised their broadswords and charged up to Lin Dan, who was waiting calmly. They looked ferocious. However, in the next moment, the iron wire hanging in mid-air had cut through their necks and bodies, splitting them in half. The blood burst out like a waterfall; the scene was spectacular. Even if the last few Huns found something strange, it was too late to dodge.

They could only watch helplessly as they hit the iron wire and were beheaded.
