The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 1011

[Chapter 1011: A River of Blood]

“Thank you for taking care of me for so long, but my body has indeed been eroded by typhoid fever.”

“My body is useless, so I troubled you for so long.”

The fast horse censor was also expressing his apologies to Zhang Yang. He felt a little sorry for letting Zhang Yang serve him for so long.

“What’s this? I don’t care at all. I just want you to go back with me safely and announce the success of the mission to the emperor.”

“I won’t care about anything else. You have to get better soon.”

Zhang Yang also cheered for the fast horse censor. He also hoped that the fast horse censor could be independent.

He never thought from the bottom of his heart that he owed the fast horse censor a favor.

If the fast horse censor could get better soon, the entire military uniform production could be circulated more quickly.

For their mission, it was also very smooth.

“Has the batch of cotton shipped from the palace arrived?”

The fast horse censor was still concerned about the affairs and was a little tired.

Seeing the fast horse censor like this, Zhang Yang couldn’t help but feel heartbroken.

“Leave this matter to me. You can rest assured to recover now. I can stand out from the crowd now.”

“Besides, this is also an opportunity for me to train myself. I hope that the fast horse censor can rest assured to leave it to me.”

After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he also helped the fast horse censor to lie down.

“You inland people have no obvious resistance to typhoid fever. Take good care of your injuries here. My mother knows all kinds of medical skills. I believe you will get better soon.”

While the two were talking, Zhang Yang’s mother had come back from outside.

He held several kinds of herbs and a few small yellow croakers in his hands.

Seeing that the fast horse censor had woken up, Zhang Yang’s mother was also very happy.

“Oh, why are you awake? Go to sleep for a while and take good care of the typhoid fever in your body.”

“Zhang Yang, help him to sleep quickly. I will give him Chinese medicine and fish soup to recuperate your brother’s body. Don’t catch a cold again.”

The fast horse censor was also very moved. He had never imagined that he could get so much care from so many people when he was injured.

From childhood to adulthood, the fast horse censor had experienced countless life and death separations, and no one cared about him no matter what happened.

His grandparents were too old, so their concern for him was insignificant.

And he also drowned any pain in his heart, and was very dissatisfied with this.

“I am very grateful that your family can bring me so much warmth. I have never been treated like this since I was a child.”

After the fast horse censor finished speaking, he also coughed heavily a few times, which made Zhang Yang and his mother more worried about his health.

“What are you talking about, silly child, now you are a member of our Zhang family, from now on don’t be so polite to us.”

“Family members don’t talk about two things, I will be unhappy if you do this again.”

Zhang Yang’s mother also comforted the fast horse censor, after all, he deeply knew the helplessness and loneliness of a child.

The fast horse censor stopped talking, and lay quietly on the bed and closed his eyes.

After the other two saw that he had fallen asleep, Zhang Yang went out.

Because the cotton from the palace had been delivered, he now had to distribute cotton to every household to make military uniforms.

For this reason, he was busy all day, running from one home to another, but such a life made Zhang Yang feel very satisfied.

“Child, go to sleep. I will make you Chinese medicine and fish soup now. This Chinese medicine is made of black snake seeds, asphalt, and Baohe, which are the best Chinese herbs.”

“As long as you can drink this bowl of soup, your typhoid fever will be cured in the future.”

Zhang Yang’s mother also took these medicinal materials and walked into the kitchen with a staggering step.

He skillfully cut these herbs and dissected these small yellow croakers.

Every move was so skillful that it made people feel distressed. A generation of skilled craftsmen is coming out of this Yujia Village.

This Yujia Village used to be a textile factory, and Zhang Yang’s mother received such training since she was a child. She

was already a well-known skilled craftsman in the village, but now she has fallen into the status of an ordinary peasant.

“Hurry up and raise the sail. This wave is about to rush over. Everyone, hold the edge of the boat.”

It was Zhang Yang’s father who spoke. As a coastal country, Yan State must have its own national defense force, so the navy is indispensable.

Zhang Yang’s father was also honored to join the army as the first batch of navy.

However, because no country had such a team, the navy was disbanded.

Therefore, he had to leave his hometown and fight in the army.

That year happened to be the war between Yan and Qi. In order to protect his territory and to maintain the dignity of the Yan people, he

bravely clashed with these Qi soldiers.

“We can’t give up any of our Yan land. You Qi people have a vast seashore, why do you have to nibble at our Yan?”

Zhang Yang’s father, a young and promising man, once had a title on the battlefield, that is, Zhang the Butcher.

As long as Zhang Yang’s father was angry, he didn’t care about anything.

“You, the Yan State, dared to fight against our Qi State. You who don’t know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is, let you taste my power.”

The people who spoke were the invading soldiers of Qi State. For Yan State, they were no different from the Huns in the north.

Every year when the Yellow River flows into the sea, in late spring and early summer, this season is the time for sowing, and the struggle between the people of the two countries will never stop.

“Looking for death, it seems that you really don’t know how stubborn our Yan State video is.”

After saying these words, Zhang Yang’s young and promising father rushed up with a machete.

His machete chopped straight on the head of the Qi soldier, and the whole head was separated from his body in an instant.

A column of blood rushed out of his neck, and his blood was scattered on the ground.

And these Yellow Rivers that flowed to the Bohai Sea together flowed away together.

Everyone was horrified, and they couldn’t believe that Zhang Yang’s father dared to do this. This was obviously a violation of the order.

The war between the two sides broke out instantly.

“Disrupt their formation, and the people of Yan will not be spared.”

The leader of Qi State also took the lead in launching the charge, and the soldiers of Qi State followed.

However, for Qi State, their soldiers were mainly infantry, and most of them were new recruits, just for border deployment.

On the contrary, the north of Yan State was the Xiongnu, and they had to train a large number of cavalry to fight against foreign invasions.

Therefore, the cavalry of Yan State and the infantry of Qi State fought here.

The two armies fought for a whole morning, and finally ended with the tragic defeat of the people of Qi State.
