Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 74 The Yellow Sand Walks Slowly

Chapter 74

By the Ruoqiang River, the sun has not yet risen, and there is a hazy moon hanging in the sky. On such an early morning, a team of six to seventy people is ready to go.

Fan Running, the envoy of the Guiyi Army who came slowly behind, and others have also arrived. This black and thin man who has temporarily taken the post of secretary of Zhang Zhao's team is writing his name on one urn after another before putting it away.

Among these urns, except for Huo Sheng'er Zhang Zhao who died in the ancient city of Loulan, the remaining seven were all killed in the bloody battle in Mud City.

In addition to the seven people who died in the battle, there are more than a dozen people whose injuries must be recuperated.

In the battle of Muni City, Zhang Zhao's losses were not insignificant. Seven people were killed and more than a dozen people were seriously injured. As for the minor injuries, almost everyone was injured.

However, the loot was quite generous. Zhang Zhao took gold and silver treasures worth more than [-] guan from the treasure house of King Zhongyun Sanpoba.

There were countless other grains, cloth, etc., and he couldn't take them away at all, so he could only sell half of them to the merchants, leaving the rest to Li Ruoliu.

"Mr. Erlang, wait for a certain one! Wait for a certain horse kite!" There was a sound of hooves, and the horse kite rode a green horse and ran over from the tent of the Zhongyun Palace built in the middle of the mountain.

Since more than a dozen people had to stay in Muni City for recuperation, Zhang Zhao simply asked Yan Jin to lead 20 people to stay behind.

One is to support Li Ruoliu, and the other is to protect the wounded. After the Khotan warriors arrive, they will go to Khotan to chase Zhang Zhao.

And considering that Ma Yaozi just got a beauty, Zhang Zhao decided to let him enjoy a period of tenderness in Muni City, but he didn't expect this kid to come here in the end.

"What's the matter? Ma Yaozi, are you reluctant to part with me? Are you afraid that Yeye will snatch your little girl?"

Man Xiong, who was loading the car, said in a low voice, this guy still remembered what Ma Yaozi scolded him that night.

"Let's go! Who can't bear to part with you, a thieves, you must follow Mr. Erlang to make another great contribution!"

Ma Yaozi gave Man Xiong an angry look, and automatically ran to Zhang Zhao's side, and began to put the armor on the horse's back onto the cart.

Zhang Zhao didn't speak, but looked at Ma Yaozi with a half-smile.

After 2 minutes, Ma Yaozi couldn't bear it anymore, he scratched his cheek in embarrassment, and said with some embarrassment.

"It's boring, that Miss Hu Ji has been crying all the time, if you say a few words to her, she will hide and cry, it's meaningless at all!

I gave her to Blind Luo, who lost a hand and needs personal care in the future!I'd better save some money and go back to Yuniang!Only Yu Niang knows how to hurt me, this thief leader! "

Luo Xiazi is one of Zhang Zhao's soldiers in Shandu. He was born in the Shouchang Town Army. His left hand was cut off at the wrist during the final battle, and Zhang Zhao left him for Li Ruoliu to be his personal guard. It's so neat, and it's unlikely that he will continue to follow one of Zhang Zhao's people.

"You are right! Blind Luo died for all of us, it would be much better to have a woman take care of him.

Your idea is also right. When you have no money, Yu Niang not only does not dislike you, but also subsidizes you. If you become prosperous in the future, you should marry Yuniang.

I didn't do it right last time, so I will give you money in the future, not women! "Zhang Zhao said in a deep voice.

Ma Yaozi nodded habitually, but he seemed to feel that something was wrong. Seeing Zhang Zhao's narrow expression, he decisively decided to step aside.

Zhang Zhao looked up at the tents of the Zhongyun Palace in the middle of the mountain, but Li Ruoliu didn't come out to see him off.

Because after all, Zhang Zhao and the others killed Sanpoba, and Li Ruoliu was forced to do so a few days ago. If he dared to come out to see him off, wouldn't the Zhongyun people regard him as Zhang Zhao's accomplice?

Before the arrival of Khotan warriors, it can be said that the situation here is not completely under Li Ruoliu's full control, so we must be more cautious.

I don't know if Li Ruoliu and Mei Niang are pregnant, and I don't know what will happen here when he comes back after a few years?

He didn't know how much a child could affect his relationship with Li Ruoliu?

"Mr. Erlang, let's go! We will come back!" Old Zhang Zhong glanced at Zhang Zhao worriedly. This loyal old servant was afraid that Zhang Zhao would fall in love with Li Ruoliu's gentle hometown, so he didn't want to leave.

"Yes! We will be back!" Zhang Zhao nodded, then took his big yellow horse and waved the hand. Amidst the sound of tinkling bells, the team slowly moved towards the west and continued to move forward.

. . . .

The sky is full of yellow sand, thousands of miles of people are uninhabited, the wind and sand block out the sun, and a black storm wrapped in dust sweeps around.

A camel suddenly knelt down on one knee and screamed loudly, and the Guiyi soldiers and civilians who accompanied the army rushed over. This is a shady place on the leeward sand dunes, and it doesn't look different.

But everyone began to dig in a hurry. After a while, after digging down to a depth of two or three meters, the dry yellow in the sand turned into the brown of wet sand. Ma Yaozi wrapped a large ball of wet sand in sackcloth and handed it to Zhang Zhao.

Zhang Zhao quickly took it and applied the cold wet sand to his chest.

They are still not short of water. There are a lot of camels on their backs, but drinking water alone cannot make up for the rapid loss of water in the whole body.

The only way is to use the camel to find a place where the wet sand can be dug out, and then apply the wet sand to the chest.

And it’s not enough to do it once, it has to be done every eight to ten kilometers, otherwise it’s just waiting to be dried by this horrible desert and turned into a mummified corpse!

In fact, November of the lunar calendar is not a good time to go to Khotan. According to Fan Running, generally going to Khotan should be from May to August, because at this time you can go directly to Yuechang along the Daqiemo River (and the end) city.

Zhang Zhao guessed that the Daqiemo River that Fanrunning said did not exist in winter should be the Cheerchen River in later generations.

Because whether it is Cheerchen or Qierqiang, they are all Uighur-style pronunciation of Qiemo, and the Cheerchen River has been a seasonal river in history.

I don't know how long I walked, and I don't know how many times I changed the wet sand. When even people with super strength like Zhang Zhao, Man Xiong, and Dunzhu felt extremely tired, a touch of bright green appeared in everyone's eyes.

Zhang Zhao rubbed his dry eyes, without any expression on his face, and he didn't rush forward, because he had already been fooled once!
A day ago, he also saw such an oasis, only to realize that it was a mirage!

Uncle!For so long, I, Zhang Da, have set up brave, witty, and far-sighted characters for my soldiers. I almost didn't overturn because of this embarrassment.

"Yahhahaha!"

Zhang Zhao is still complaining fiercely in his heart!Fan Running next to him screamed and ran over.

"Mr. Erlang, here we are. The oasis in front of us is Luye Township in Yuechang City!"

Wu Yuan'er excitedly came to Zhang Zhao's side. This guy had a fatal life, and he lost a lot of blood. As a result, Zhang Zhao only used a burst of cardiopulmonary resuscitation to save him.

Hearing the confirmation from Wu Yuan'er, who was familiar with the road, the whole team became completely wild. The people, horses and camels all howled and ran towards the oasis opposite!
Khotan, finally arrived.
