When the bonfire was burning, Huo Qiyuan asked Gu Yuzhi to take off his socks and boots and put them next to the fire to bake. He took out a particularly small earthen jar from his luggage, scooped out some clean snow water, and put it in. Cook over the fire.

The earthen pot is placed on a tree branch, and the rice cakes that have been frozen into ice lumps are placed on top, and they are heated little by little with hot air.

As soon as Shu Xiaohan saw the rice cake, she remembered how Gu Yuzhi had difficulty swallowing it a few times before, and sighed softly: "It would be great if the young prince found wheat earlier."

The cool soil is very suitable for growing wheat. Even though the varieties are not as good as those of later generations, it is still no problem to ensure that the young prince does not have to eat rice cakes that make his throat go out.

Gu Yuzhi, who was forced to survive in the wild and had another task of finding wheat seeds, said that he was still a child and the burden on him was too heavy...

He sat cross-legged on the tree stump, looked at Marshal Huo with his chin on his hands, and suddenly let out a long sigh: "Mr. Huo, during a war, is it really possible to stay in the wild for a long time without anything?"

It had only been a morning, and he felt so tired and wanted to give up...

But before he set off, Xie Changshi told him sincerely that although he was a child, he was also a prince and the god of the people in Mobei. He could not do things that would disappoint the people just because he was young. .

Gu Yuzhi thought that if he said he wanted to return to Changzhou, Marshal Huo would definitely agree, but he would definitely be disappointed in himself.

He puffed up his face and sighed like a grown-up. When he thought that there was still a month left, he felt even sadder than waiting in the palace for the day before leaving for Mobei!
Huo Qiyuan added two matches and sighed softly while guarding the small earthen jar.

Those years of fighting and fighting on the battlefield seemed like a lifetime ago.

He whispered: "I grew up in the army. When I was ten years old, Beidi invaded, so I volunteered to go into battle to kill the enemy. I thought I was fully prepared for the cruelty of the battlefield, but I didn't want to wait for me When I went out to kill the enemy, I was still too frightened by the bloody and cruel scenes to move."

That was probably the most useless time in Huo Qiyuan's life.

There were deafening screams in his ears, and broken limbs and arms could be seen everywhere. He was so frightened by the real fighting scene that he stayed in place, his whole body was shaking uncontrollably, and he subconsciously wanted to run away.

Four words filled his mind - how terrible!

The real battlefield is not boiling with blood, but bloody, and people can die at any time!
It wasn't until the hot blood splashed onto his face that he truly realized that he was on the battlefield, not on the city wall.

But now he has rushed to the forefront of the battlefield.

The enemy general had already discovered him, shouting that he was the son of the general, and led the generals to use him as a breakthrough point to advance into the whole state.

In that battle, almost all the generals in Mobei gathered around him, and he was forced to raise his sword and slash at the enemy with a scream. From fear at the beginning, to numbness later, the blade of the sword was curled. When they got up, the tiger's mouth was broken and they couldn't lift their arms, so they finally broke through the siege and returned to the city.

Huo Qiyuan's eyes were red, his tone was choked, and his voice seemed to be far away: "After returning to the city, I learned that my father's closest and trusted lieutenant died on the battlefield to protect me, and was stabbed with a spear by General Beidi. , just standing outside the city."

"The lieutenant general also watched me grow up. He also urged my father to agree to my going out to the city to kill the enemy. He said that I am a descendant of a general and I will go to the battlefield sooner or later. Being young is not an excuse, because Beidi people will not let anyone go just because they are young." Gu Yuzhi watched Marshal Huo bury his face in his hands, his shoulders trembled slightly, and his face gradually darkened.

The Marshal Huo he knew was the pinnacle of the whole state, the god of war in the hearts of the people of Sang Dynasty, an invincible and indomitable man.

But now, the living Marshal Huo was sitting in front of him, his shoulders slumped, his whole body exuding frustration and regret...

Gu Yu felt a tightness in his chest, but he couldn't explain why. He clenched his fists and said, "What happened next?"

"Later?" Huo Qiyuan laughed at himself, "I was escorted by my father to the city wall to look at the deputy general's body. I heard the roaring and mocking voices of the Beidi people, and saw the disappointed eyes of my father and the generals, and I finally passed out. "

"That night, I developed a high fever. My dream was full of blood, and the deputy general's body was lifted high..."

Later, Huo Qiyuan experienced many wars, killed countless enemies, and many people around him died on the battlefield, but he always remembered the feeling of going to the battlefield for the first time.

"Your Highness..." Huo Qiyuan slowly exhaled and said earnestly, "You may also think that I am a prince and I don't have to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy myself. I won't encounter such a thing, or I have already made preparations to be able to face it. Be prepared for any difficulty, but no matter how well prepared you are, you will still feel at a loss when you get to the battlefield.”

Gu Yuzhi only felt a chill spreading from the bottom of his heart. He subconsciously wrapped his cloak tightly and murmured, "Then will you also feel scared when you go to the battlefield?"

Huo Qiyuan hummed softly: "Yes, why not? We can formulate strategies to kill the enemy, but not everything will develop in the direction we expected. After all, we are facing people."

"Everyone has variables." Huo Qiyuan looked at Gu Yuzhi, "Just like Guard Zhang and the others when they went to Qizhou this time, even though they made all the preparations, they were still almost surrounded and suppressed by the people from Li Ji Escort Agency."

Gu Yuzhi had been listening in confusion. After all, he had never experienced the cruelty on the battlefield.

But when he talked about Qizhou, Gu Yuzhi immediately sat up straight, waved his fist and said angrily: "Wei Zhang said that the chief escort is dead, and the remaining people have no idea who tipped them off. Of!"

Fortunately, the Li Ji Escort Bureau caught fire, allowing Zhang Guards and others to find a breakthrough.

Gu Yuzhi's voice was low: "Mr. Huo, is this what the battlefield is changing rapidly?"

Huo Qiyuan laughed loudly, poured the hot water into the water bag and handed it over: "It's a bit hot. Your Highness, drink it in small sips, and drink less. Later, I will go to the mountain to see if there is any game."

Although he brought his Highness to train his wilderness survival ability, he had to do it step by step. He immediately entered the most intense training. I was afraid that His Highness would be sent back to Changzhou to be sentenced by Qin Yuan before he had time to train.

As soon as he heard that he was going hunting, Gu Yuzhi immediately became interested and raised his little hand and said: "I want to go too, I want to go too! Spring hunting is held every year in the palace, but because I am too young, I have never participated in it. !”

Every year he could only listen to the Fifth Emperor Brother show off, and he was really envious.
