Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 793 The Road

Although it was said that he declined for five days, he still had to go on his way in the end. Pang Xi's tens of thousands of troops were waiting, and Mu Jing's Eight Hundred Mo Knife was useless. Even if he wanted to delay, he couldn't. Follow along.

Mu Jing himself didn't care about it, he could endure the hardships of marching and fighting, so the rush was nothing.

But Xi Zhicai was about to toss, he had undergone a major abdominal surgery, and about [-]% to [-]% of his life was lost, and at least he could recover after a few months of training.

It's only been a few days of cultivation, and the wound has not even begun to heal, so he is forced to travel thousands of miles, and the wound is prone to rupture.

Fortunately, Zhang Ning and Luo military doctor were watching the whole process, so they barely survived.

The speed of the army is not fast at all, but it is still the road of Bashu, so it is even slower.

Moreover, they were the rear army, and they escorted the most things, horse-drawn carts, mule carts, bumpy, stop-and-go, and marched for more than ten days. It was not until the beginning of November that their army crossed Wuling County. , into the Berkshire area.

After entering Berkshire, the weather has become much colder.

It has even started to snow in some places. Although the snowflakes are not big, it delays the journey time and makes the journey even harder.

"General Pang, let's rest for two days!"

One day, when the army came out of the hillside, Mu Jing rode his horse to the army, and said to the general Pang Xi in a low voice.

Xi Zhicai's body has been running around for these days, the serious injury has not healed, and the pain has spread. From the moment he entered Berkshire, he had a fever and was unconscious. The wound ruptured twice.

Coupled with the colder weather and frostbite on the wound, his body became weaker.

"Minghou, it's not that I want to refuse, it's just that the lord has ordered us to return to Chengdu as soon as possible. If we stay here, I'm afraid it will be difficult to return to Chengdu on time!" Pang Xi was a little embarrassed when he heard this.

These words are sincere, not evasive, the vanguard soldiers and horses returned quickly, and their hands have already begun to enter Shu County, and they are still staying here, and there is at least a month before they want to go back.

If it continues to drag on, if Liu Yan is punished, Pang Xi will naturally be unable to let go of the relationship.

"If the lord is to blame, I will bear it all!"

Mu Jing pleaded and said: "My military advisor, Xi Zhicai, is sick all over his body now, and his illness is unsuitable. I'm afraid that if he continues on his way here, he will die halfway. Xi Zhicai's ability, even the lord, praises him three points. General Pang, please save face!"

"Then temporarily set up camp and rest for a day!"

Pang Xi pondered for a while, and still gave this face, but the time was cut in half.

Mujing was helpless, and no longer fought for it.

As soon as the military order was issued, the battalions of the army immediately started to move, began to choose places, set up camp temporarily, and then one by one, in the freezing weather, lingered around the campfires and began to bury pots and make meals.

"Zhicai, drink this bowl of medicine!" Mu Jing personally handed Xi Zhicai a bowl of medicine brewed by Zhang Ning.

"Please trouble the lord to do it yourself, damn it!"

Although Xi Zhicai's health was indeed in poor health, it was not as miserable as Mu Jing said. The wound did burst, but the bleeding stopped quickly, and there was not much bleeding. In the carriage, covered with a quilt, holding the medicine bowl that Mujing handed over, with his eyes closed, he drank the bitter medicine in one gulp.

"How are you feeling today?"

Mu Jing asked.

"It's much better!" Xi Zhicai smiled lightly: "Except for the wound still hurting, everything else is pretty good. Although the weather is a lot colder, but getting used to it will not help me to raise soldiers. As for the carriage, this There are so many quilts on the carriage, even if it is bumped, it will not go anywhere, the wound has not continued to open, it should be closed, give me a little more time, and it will heal!"

"At first I wanted to stay and rest for a few more days, but Pang Xi, it seems that he didn't dare to take the risk, that is, he didn't want to!" Mu Jing said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid to continue on this journey, you The body can't hold it!"

As he said that, he sighed: "It is said that the road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky. The road to Bashu is really too difficult. I am a little bit scattered on horseback. Don't say that you still ride a carriage, I am afraid it will be even worse." Bump!"

The official way of Bashu is too bad.

It is said that Bashu is the land of abundance, there are countless treasures here, but few people are willing to enter Bashu for business, not because they don’t see business opportunities, but because they dare not take this kind of road to transport goods, if they go back and forth like this, Let alone making money, your wealth and life will be lost.

"The roads in Bashu have been like this since ancient times!"

Xi Zhicai said in a weak and soft voice: "We can take the official road, which is pretty good. If we take the small road, the fast road, I am afraid it will be more difficult. Please bear with it. Since Bashu is like this, it is estimated that it is not far from Chengdu. Far!"

"I can hold on, but I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on!" Mu Jing said, "I should have left you in Jingzhou City to heal your wounds before running around!"

"I'm not that weak!"

Xi Zhicai smiled slightly.

After taking the medicine, he felt a little tired and fell asleep.

"Zhuge, where have we been?" Mu Jing got out of the carriage, walked to the side of the campfire, saw the soldiers eating, and suddenly asked Zhuge Xuan to his side.

Zhugexuan spread out the map, gestured carefully, and said: "My lord, according to our current marching speed and the surrounding terrain, we should be here, Chestnut Mountain, only [-] miles away from Jiangzhou City! "

"Jiangzhou City?"

Hearing this, Mu Jing narrowed his eyes slightly.

He knew where Jiangzhou City was naturally, it was a mountain city for later generations, and it was an important city in Bashu.

"Yan Yan is now leading an army to guard Wuling County, so who is the current prefect of Ba County?" Mu Jing asked again.

Yan Yan was the prefect of Berkshire before, and the Berkshire soldiers he commanded were considered the main force in Yizhou. They performed well on the battlefield. Now that Zhang Renzhen is on the front line, he must guard Wuling. Both of them were placed by Liu Yan. Jingzhou.

“Appears to be vacant for now!”

Zhugexuan replied: "I have inquired before, but there is no news. I heard that after Yan Yan left, Ba County did not set up a prefect for the time being. It may be because Liu Yizhou was afraid of Yan Yan's heart. After all, Yan Yan also took the initiative to surrender to him. !"

"It's vacant!"

The corners of Mujing's mouth raised slightly, revealing a bright smile: "This means that the Berkshire dragons have no leader!"

In a place, if there is no dignified and righteous principal, sooner or later something will go wrong. Liu Yan worried too much, but he failed to figure it out.

This is good news for him.

There are not many opportunities for him to penetrate now.

Berkshire is a good place.

However, he will not act in such a hurry, because he has no roots, and he doesn't even have any roots in Bashu. What's more, this is a place connected to Jingzhou after all. Can't hide it from Liu Yan.

........................

Pang Xi said that a day is a day.

A day later, they continued on their way.

The march of the army is basically along the official road, so many cities do not enter. Covered with the fiercest first snow since winter, they arrived.
