I, the prince in distress, send money

Chapter 54 Post-War Interlude

The Restoration Army still successfully retreated, although Chris was reluctant to let the enemy leave with its entire organization and wanted to fight a war of annihilation rather than a war of crushing defeat.

But he couldn't do it. The enemy's spearmen had come to support the fleeing soldiers. Chris had to stop everyone, blow the whistle, and order everyone to stop chasing.

The mercenaries and caravan servants obeyed the order, and although the players were unwilling, they were powerless to continue charging.

The body Chris gives to the player is just a mortal body, not an extraordinary body.

No matter how skilled players are, the existence of the stamina bar will limit their combat duration.

"What a pity..."

Xiaodaozhabuti looked at the enemy going away with regret. He wanted to continue chasing him, but after taking two steps, his legs softened uncontrollably and he sat down on a headless corpse. He subconsciously looked down.

It was not until now that Xiaodao stabbed his butt and realized that there was a big gash on his chest, deep enough to see the bone, without knowing when.

The experienced Xiaodao Zhazi only took one look and knew that he was about to lose his virginity. Subconsciously, he gathered up his last bit of strength and shouted loudly.

"Medical potion..."

After shouting, Xiaodao suddenly realized that he had changed the game, so he quickly changed his words.

"Medic, medical... cough cough cough... never mind."

Looking at the pink fragments flying out of his mouth as he coughed, Xiaodao Zha's Butt stopped calling out, and his weak body fell back, falling into the arms of the headless corpse.

The lingering warmth and soft embrace, as well as the strong, nauseating stench that hit his nose, made Xiaodao Zha's buttocks miss it so much.

It's a familiar feeling. It turns out that only in the works of Baihu Game Studio can you have such a gaming experience.

"Are you ok?"

Carrot, who was holding a spear and finishing off the enemy's corpse, walked nearby and found the knife lying in the corpse's arms. Looking at the ID faintly visible above the latter's head, he couldn't help but ask with concern.

"..."

Xiaodao didn't say anything. The extremely real feeling of tiredness made him not want to talk, and he was even too lazy to look at others.

Carrot waited for a while, then walked over, grabbed the hands of the man who had stabbed his buttocks with a knife, put him on his back, and walked towards the hillside.

This player just died, and Carrot wanted to revive the body now while it was still warm, so as to minimize the weakness period after resurrection.

Not many people died in this battle. After the battle, only half of the sixty players died, and more than half were still alive and well.

This was really unexpected. Chris thought that the players who took the lead would be wiped out.

Since there was still some strength left, when the enemy retreated, Chris selected ten players who looked still energetic from among the surviving players to follow the retreating Restoration Army to prevent the enemy from making a surprise attack.

"Hurry up and clean up the battlefield. Take our wounded away. Check the enemy's wounded. Bring those who can be saved here so I can rescue them. If they can't be saved, kill them."

Chris said this to Isaac, but the latter was not happy. He expressed his opinion to Chris as tactfully as possible.

"Your Highness, our medicine is very precious. It would be a waste to use it on the enemy."

"No problem, I know what to do."

Chris knew what Axe was thinking, but there was really no need to save on some things.

Seeing this, Isaac could only nod in greeting and turn away.

The scale of this battle was not large, and the casualties were not many. The total number of casualties on both sides was just over a hundred, and the number of wounded was even smaller.

On the defense side, besides the player, five mercenaries were killed, all unlucky enough to be caught in the crossfire. Aside from one lucky individual with a broken leg, the other four died instantly. In addition, there were several wounded, injured by the enemy counterattack while chasing the musketeers down the hillside. Their injuries were minor, just minor skin bruises.

It only took Chris half an hour to treat all of his own wounded in the open space. As for the mercenaries, they were carried over and placed with the wounded of the Restoration Army next door.

When Chris walked over, he found that two players were already handling it, so he turned around and walked away, leaving the scene to them and walked away himself, as he had other things to deal with.

Chris needed to deal with the spoils at the scene and the Beach Town militiamen in the distance. After the battle, the latter did not leave, but gathered in the distance and watched, neither approaching the defense forces nor leaving.

They were obviously a little scared. The Restoration Army had run away, but the Defense Army was still here.

Chris had no intention of explaining anything. The actions of these militiamen on the battlefield had already made their attitude clear.

Chris looked up at Isaac, who was busy at the pile of corpses, arranging people to burn the remains of the battlefield. He felt that he should not put all the blame on the latter, as he was already busy enough.

"Connie!"

"Your Highness."

"You, or send someone over to ask who the leaders of those militias are. I need to talk to them."

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Connie personally led more than ten of her men to the town militia. Not long after, she came back. The young man behind her was carrying a man on a stretcher, and four injured locals followed timidly behind.

"Connie, what's going on?"

"Your Highness, this is the captain of the militia of Biqi Town, their leader."

Connie walked up to Chris and turned around to point at the man on the stretcher. Even though he was lying there, one could tell he had a broad frame and was of an extraordinary height.

"he died?"

"It should be soon."

Chris walked over and, under the nervous gazes of the townspeople, lifted the bloody cloth covering him and used the copper scissors that had just been cleaned with disinfectant to cut open the linen clothes on the man's chest, revealing his bony chest.

Chris just took a look, then pressed the injured man's stomach twice with his hands, and he made a judgment.

"Bring me my medical kit with bandages and sutures. He only has two puncture wounds. His heart isn't injured, and his lungs aren't punctured. If he stops bleeding now, he can still be saved."

"Really?"

"Go quickly."

As he spoke, Chris looked up at the four people beside the stretcher, then turned around and raised his hand to greet Connie.

"For you, ask someone to call the kitchen staff over and cook the porridge here."

"why?"

"Go quickly."

Chris was too lazy to explain, he just pointed at the four militiamen who couldn't even stand up straight.

"They are very hungry. The militia captain lying on the stretcher is not seriously injured and unconscious. He fainted from hunger."
