Chapter 225
It is the tradition of Xingluo people to do what they say.

Ren Ning learned the tea ceremony from Wei Junqian again, and then he got up and went back to Qianfeng camp.

He discussed with the chief general Chu Jinding for a while, and then recruited all the commanders to assign the task.

"Be careful." Chu Jinding urged.

"Yes, General!" Ren Ning understood what he meant.

Both Yingshan Camp and Zhennanguan have supervisors sent by the Imperial Army.But except for a few dead-headed people, others have already become their own people.

Xingluo was not worried about these supervisors.

Just because the rubber business is getting more and more prosperous, and the Ministry of Household Affairs is trying to collect resources from Nanfeng to supplement Yunchui's empty treasury, many caravans have come from the four southern counties including Guangxin.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, it is not good for the Yingshan camp to blatantly send out all the tens of thousands of people in the tenth battalion of forwards.

Therefore, Xiao Gang's forward fifth battalion and Liang Rushi's second battalion were given the task.The reason for dispatching is training.

The reason why the Starfall Legion is famous and invincible in the world is that apart from the strict military discipline, it is because there are many kinds of training at ordinary times, so no one has any objections.

The 2000 people in the two battalions, plus the support personnel sent by Guan Luping from Xingluo's hometown, are enough to find dozens of high points among the steep mountains in the southwest and build a communication line.

As a lieutenant general, Ren Ning could be the shopkeeper from time to time, so he also went up the mountain with his personal guards.

The maps of this era are quite tricky.

Many inaccessible places are blank, only the outline of a mountain or river is roughly drawn.What's inside is mostly unknown.

A few days later, Ren Ning and his party managed to climb up a mountain named Lilong with tools, only to find that there was a bottomless canyon in front of them.

Lei Er sighed while gnawing on something: "Now I finally know why the empire didn't build a road directly from Xingluo's hometown to Guangxin in the south."

Even if the emperors wanted to repair it, with such a moat in front of them, they might not be able to repair it.

Ren Ning smiled, not surprised at all, "Let's separate and look around to find a way down the mountain."

After finishing the order, he climbed up a big tree, held up the binoculars to check the surrounding terrain, and then drew the map again.

As for how to go down the mountain, after training for so long before, many Xingluo's soldiers are already comparable to top scouts in trekking ability, so he doesn't need to worry about it.

In this way, more than two thousand people are slowly groping forward in the barren mountains and mountains day by day.

They carefully searched the mountains and mountains in the southwest, and then compared them to choose a place suitable for building a communication station.

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and the days pass by.When Ren Ning and his party stood on the top of the mountain and could see the hazy Xingluo Basin in front of them, the time had come to Qingming.

"Time flies, and it will be Qingming again in a blink of an eye." Lei Er seldom had a free mouth, and murmured to the west, "It won't be long before the fortress will send the spirit back to his hometown again."

"I don't know what happened to Yanfeng Fortress!" He said.

Ren Ning turned to look at Lei Er.

It is only 30 years since Changxing, and it has been two years since the last time they sent their souls back to their hometowns, and there are still two years left before the next time they send their souls back to their hometowns. How could it be said that "it won't take long"?
But Ren Ning understands Lei Er's worries.

It's just that they didn't rest even during Chinese New Year and Lantern Festival, and they were still groping for the way to Xingluo Basin in the vast mountains.

Therefore, the news is blocked, and almost nothing is known about the outside world.Even Ren Ning doesn't know what's going on in the west.

He smiled and comforted: "Don't worry. No news is good news."

"I hope so." Lei Er nodded.

To the west, deep in the Xiliang prairie, there is Angel Grassland.

Angel means flower in Xiliang language, but now there are more than two hundred dirty cavalry in this flower.

"Old Lu, where is this place?" Gu Datou looked around.

He stretched out his hands and rubbed a thick layer of mud from his face.

Lu Youtian laughed.He hissed and bit off a piece of dried mutton, chewing vigorously: "Ask me, who should I ask? Anyway, it's far away from the royal court of the grassland or the desert of no return."

Gu Datou nodded, touched the map in his arms, and didn't intend to take it out.

None of the two hundred or so little soldiers could read.Except for some big tribes in Xiliang, they also know the two places of Grassland King's Court and Bugui Desert, so it's meaningless to ask or look again.

"There should be a big tribe nearby." Gu Datou turned around the grass on the ground, looking thoughtfully at the neatly gnawed heads of grass.

"Yes." Lu Youtian nodded, "So everyone should be careful."

These days, they clearly felt that there were more and more Xiliang people besieging them, and it was really not easy to get out without a lot of trouble.

The only good thing is that the Xiliang people have nothing to do with them, but they have destroyed a lot of food and grass for the Xiliang army.

The Prairie King was so angry that he killed several logistics generals in a row, and even forced them to find out and kill them as soon as possible.

It's a pity that it always returns without success.

However, as time went by, the logistics generals of the Xiliang people also reacted, and gradually they gathered into a huge team before heading east collectively.

Anyway, there are roads everywhere in the prairie, so you don’t have to worry about not being able to walk even if you are huddled together.

In this way, it will not be easy for Gu Datou and the others to sneak attack on the Liangcao team again.

"Lao Lu, what are we going to do when we come down?" Gu Datou asked while patting the shivering lamb beside him, "How about sneak attacking the nearby tribes?"

He didn't fight or sneak attack for several days, just blindly hiding around, his hands and feet were itchy.

"No rush. We'll talk when we have a chance." Lu Youtian threw away the leftover bones and wiped the grease from his hands on the grass.

"Brothers' lives are important. Only by surviving well can we cause more trouble for these wicked Xiliang people and buy more time for the fortress."

"Ugh!" Gu Datou agreed.

It's just that his mouth is clumsy, he can't say such words, he can only nod his head.

Lu Youtian stood up and looked around, "Now there are people from Xiliang, hounds and even hawks chasing them all around. Let's get out of the encirclement first."

Fuck!
Gu Datou cursed angrily, "I should have asked for Lao Ren's long-range bow and arrow back then."

With the binoculars in hand, the Xiliang people and hunting dogs on the ground don't have to worry too much, but the eagles circling in the sky are the most troublesome.

And with Ren Ning's bow and arrow in hand, even if he misses the shot, at least he can scare the broken birds so that they don't follow behind unscrupulously.

"No need to talk." Lu Youtian rolled his eyes.

He came over and stabbed the lamb that Gu Datou was holding up without hesitation, and then carried the screaming and struggling lamb around the temporary camp in front of him.

The strong smell of blood soon permeated.

"Everyone check if the mount is full? If it is full, prepare to leave!"

"I'm full, I'm full." The soldiers took no surprise and climbed on their mounts one after another.

Lu Youtian nodded, and casually threw the lamb on the ground with more air and less air, and took the lead and galloped northward.
