Chapter 167 How long have you not eaten?
It is normal for enemy and friendly soldiers to mix together in battle.

For Yunzhen, it was a bit of a test of his eyesight.

Although both parties have different clothing, hairstyles, and facial features.

But after rolling around in this yellow sandy environment for a while, everyone was covered in mud and stains, looking like little clay figures. Their originally distinct appearances also became somewhat similar.

Not to mention that they would run around while fighting, which was really dazzling to look at.

Trying to pick out the enemy soldiers from among them is like picking red beans from a pile of mung beans, which is a torturous task.

Yunzhen couldn't help but mutter a few words.

Then I found myself opening a group call.

The sound wasn't loud, but the little humans on the ground probably heard it.

How would people of this era react?
Yun Zhen lowered his eyes curiously and observed them closely.

Yun Zhan, who was protected by an unknown force, was stunned.

I just watched the enemies fly up into the sky and fly out again, completely unable to understand what was happening.

The soldiers around saw this and began to talk:

"This, this, this, I have never seen a martial art so magical!"

"What's going on? Is anyone helping us?"

"Who knows if they are friends or enemies? What if they start attacking us after they've thrown away the Tartars? It's better to be careful."

Yun Zhan thought so too.

His muscles were tense and ready to attack, and his eyes were filled with surprise and vigilance.

Even though the current situation seemed to be in their favor, they did not relax at all. Instead, they paid more careful attention to everything happening around them.

In the rear, scouts had reported the unusual situation on the front line to Marshal Yun Jin.

Yun Jin frowned, and the first thing he thought of was martial arts.

But then he denied it.

He knew all the famous martial arts masters, whether in the martial arts world or in the imperial court.

No one can do such a miraculous thing remotely.

According to the scouts, the person who "helped" was probably a young woman.

The sound came down from the sky and echoed in all directions.

What kind of person can have such great inner strength?

Yun Jin has been on the battlefield for decades, but has never met or heard of such a genius.

The description sounded like a fairy tale. What was the purpose of the other party appearing here?
Deputy General Cui Xiangchuan patted his thigh and exclaimed optimistically:
"It's a miracle! This must be God blessing us!"

"This kind of power is beyond the reach of ordinary people. It must be the mercy of the gods who have appeared to help us!"

"Seeing is believing, Marshal, shall we go over and take a look?"

Yun Jin thought about it, nodded in agreement, and rode his horse to the front line.

Deputy General Cui Xiangchuan hurried to catch up, fearing that he would miss anything exciting.

All the enemy soldiers within a hundred meters around Yun Zhan were cleared out.

But no more sound came from the sky.

The enemy general Ahama had retreated a hundred meters away. He wanted to give chase, but was afraid that any rash action would cause trouble.

I endured it for a long time, thinking that it would be okay to just say hello.

He then summoned his inner strength and asked loudly, "Who is the master who is here to help? Can you show yourself?"

"I am Yun Zhan, the border garrison commander. Thank you for saving my life just now!"

"If possible, please give me a chance to repay you."

Yun Zhen, who was standing in front of the bookcase, raised his eyebrows and said in a pretentious manner, "I am in heaven and cannot show up to meet you."

"Because I heard people quarreling and fighting, I tried to stop it."

"Why did you start a war here, causing the people to suffer and their lives to be destroyed?"

A shocking celestial sound was heard, and every word and sentence revealed the mysteriousness of its identity.

The little humans on the ground were frightened and froze for a moment, and the entire battlefield seemed to be frozen.

After a long while, Yun Zhan raised his head and explained doubtfully:

"The Tatars have repeatedly invaded the borders of our Great Zhou, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of atrocities in places like Yuzhou."

"We are here to defend the border and repel the enemy under orders. If we have disturbed anyone, I hope... you will forgive me, Immortal."

Yun Zhan uses his internal energy to make sounds, which are loud and can be heard over a wide range.

The Tatar commander Ahama heard this from a distance and immediately jumped out to refute:

"This pretty boy is full of nonsense! He actually described us as the most heinous people!"

"The one in the sky, since you are here, you must be the god of our grassland. You should help us conquer Yuzhou! How come you have become an assistant to the weaklings of the Great Zhou Dynasty and harmed our own people?"

His words angered all the soldiers of the Great Zhou.

Yun Jin happened to be at the front line. Hearing this, he raised his sword and scolded him:
"Bullshit! How dare you, a foolish and uncivilized barbarian, speak nonsense and confuse right and wrong on the territory of the Great Zhou!"

"If you want to fight, then fight. Do you really think that I, a man from the Great Zhou, am afraid of you?"

Seeing that the two sides were about to start fighting again, Yun Zhen grabbed Ahama and threw him away with force.

The burly figure wailed as he flew toward the horizon, then fell from a great height, raising a cloud of yellow sand with a bang. He was deader than dead.

The main general was defeated with one move, and the remaining Tatar soldiers inevitably cowered in fear.

They looked hesitantly at the soldiers of the Great Zhou in front of them, and then looked up at the sky in fear.

Afterwards, their morale collapsed and they had no intention of fighting anymore, so they had to retreat in the direction they came from.

"This... should we pursue the victory?"

One of the lieutenants asked uncertainly.

Yun Jin raised his hand to signal to stop, and announced in a loud voice: "No need! Everyone stay on the spot and rest!"

"It's still early, the Tartars may come back, so don't be too lax when you rest."

"If there is still no movement by the evening hour, we will all return to the camp."

Upon hearing this, all the soldiers sat down to rest.

I was so focused in the battle just now that my five senses were numb and I couldn't pay attention to the discomfort in my body.

When I relaxed now, I felt pain and fatigue all over my body, my mouth was dry and my stomach was rumbling with hunger. I wished I could treat the yellow sand on the ground as a meal and fill my stomach regardless of my life.

Yun Zhen saw that they were all pale and thin, with listless expressions, and their faces were full of vicissitudes and fatigue.

Even the commander-in-chief and the generals had green faces and sunken cheeks, and it was obvious that they had been hungry for a long time.

"How long has it been since you last had dinner?"

Yun Jin originally wanted to speak first, but he didn't expect that the person in the sky would speak first.

The gentleness and concern in his tone were so sincere that even the nearly fifty-year-old veteran was startled.

He stroked his beard with a faint smile, and replied calmly:
"I just ate before I set out this morning. Even though it was just watery porridge, it at least filled me up a bit."

"It was a year of famine. There was severe drought in the north and floods in the south. Even the land of fish and rice suffered from a poor harvest."

"Everyone is tightening their belts to make ends meet. The imperial court can't collect food, so naturally it can't send much food and fodder."

"We can make do with what we have, but the old ones at home are a bit worrying..."

"Speaking of which, we have to thank the Lord God for his help today! Ahama is dead, and the Tartars will probably be in chaos for a while. It's a good opportunity for us to take a break and catch our breath."

"I wonder what the name of the great god is? Where are the temples and statues? Although I cannot afford the three animals for sacrifice, I can still offer a little incense and burn some paper money to show my sincere gratitude."
