New Wagang

Chapter 580 Black Stone

As the deputy general of the scout battalion, Linghu Kuan definitely got Huang Tianhu's true biography, and he did everything almost perfectly. This is indeed a very reassuring existence for those engaged in intelligence work.

Yu Wenba told Linghu Kuan about the idea of ​​bypassing Ningxia Wang Ma Dehai's territory, and Linghu Kuan immediately led his scouts to explore the way without asking why.

Wang Bodang asked Yuwenba what he was going to do in Huyou County, because what he learned from now is that Huyou County is a wilderness, and it has to go deep into the scope of Western Turks, and now although Hosara Khan Already in charge of the local situation, but the Turks have always been chaotic, so 500 people are really risky.

Wang Bodang wasn't afraid of death, but he didn't want Yuwenba to have any accidents. The reason why Daxin Kingdom is so powerful that everyone in the world fears it is because of Yuwenba's existence.

Wang Bodang can even imagine that if Yuwenba is gone one day, Daxin Kingdom may not be able to maintain such a momentum of development, and it is very likely that it will fall apart soon.

However, Uncle Wang is clear about Yuwenba's character, especially when he sees that Yuwenba is still looking forward to it, Wang Bodang also knows that Yuwenba's determined trip may be very important to the future development of Daxin Kingdom One step, so there was no dissuasion, but I did my best to arrange the protection of Yuwenba.

Winding around and walking in secret, after more than a month, they finally entered Huyou County. When this was a desolate place with overgrown weeds and wolves howling and wild animals howling everywhere, everyone couldn't help but A little dumbfounded.

This is where my brother insisted on coming?
Except for Yu Wenba, everyone else looked at Linghu Kuan, meaning you sure you didn't lead us astray?
Linghu Kuan was also very puzzled by this, but when everyone saw the eager gaze in Yuwenba's eyes, they became indifferent, no need to ask, it must be right.

Yuwenba inquired about Linghukuan's surroundings in detail, and finally felt relieved, and then led the guard camp to the depths of this desolate land.

If it is a small group of soldiers and horses, they are naturally afraid of wolves or those wild animals, but such a general situation of 500 people is only afraid of wolves. In addition to the various things that have been prepared, the wolves are almost unstoppable during the day. Dare to attack and disturb, but at night when pine oil torches were lit and arrows were shot, the wolves did not dare to get too close, and could only howl around the camp from a distance.

In the first few days, everyone couldn't sleep peacefully, but after a few days of getting used to it, everyone knew that the wolves didn't seem to be a threat to everyone, so everyone except the sergeant who changed defense could sleep soundly every day.

In this way, slowly continue to advance towards the uninhabited place.

A county in places like Western Turks is many times larger than some counties in the Sui Dynasty. Let alone 1 people, it is [-] people. As long as you hide properly, it is relatively easy to hide without being discovered. Easy.

After going deep into the hinterland of Huyou County, the pace of progress slowed down. Yuwenba decided to burn an open area to see the situation first, so he drew a large area to dig out the isolation around it, and then lit the weeds in the middle. In a blink of an eye, an empty ground was exposed.

the next day.
The people entered the burnt ground and began to clear away the debris. They also found the corpses of many wild animals, and they took the soldiers to have a barbecue.

Yuwenba carefully surveyed the ground with some experience of later generations, and everyone didn't know what Yuwenba was going to do, and Yuwenba only told himself that he was looking for something called coal, and his eyes were black.

Everyone heard of coal for the first time, let alone know what it is, just imitating Yuwenba's appearance and digging everywhere in the open space.

Finally, on the third day, when the burned out space was about to be dug up by everyone, a sergeant reported that there were black stones in the dug.

When Yuwenba saw the black stone delivered to him, he was overjoyed.

"This is the coal. Whoever dug it out, Brother Bodang, deserve a great credit!" Yuwenba was so excited that he hurriedly went to the place where the coal was dug out. layer of coal.

"All the sergeants except the guards are called to expand along this pit, hurry up!" Yuwenba didn't immediately order people to dig deep, after all, only one corner was exposed. Who knows in which direction the charcoal layer extends, etc. After the expansion, the general situation is clear, and then a range is set, and only within this range can we start digging deeper.

But because you can’t dig too deep, not to mention now, even later generations often hear about coal mines collapsing, not to mention that there are no protection measures in this era, but before this, you just need to confirm the location first. It's much easier to wait until the right time comes to develop it yourself.

The coal seam seemed to extend in another direction, so Yuwenba roughly calculated a range and burned up the weeds and sundries again, and excavated along this area, which finally made Yuwenba very happy.

In addition to the extremely wide distribution of the carbon layer, judging from the structure of the carbon layer, it may be buried deep underground. This is definitely a large coal layer!
Immediately, Yuwenba ordered people to dig out a certain amount of coal and load it into the prepared carriage, and then covered the coal layer with soil, and continued to search for the sources of sulfur ore, Glauber's salt, and trona.

Although everyone doesn't know what is the use of looking for those things, but everyone knows that as long as they find them, there will be great rewards. Help your brother find it and you will get a shocking baby.

At that time, the power of Daxin Kingdom will become even stronger!
The matter of Yuwenba's entry into the Western Turks was hidden from Ma Delai, king of Ningxia, but not from Xue Huaming.

However, when Xue Huaming heard that Yuwenba had only brought a few hundred people into the Western Turks, he was relieved a lot. Although the two companies have a covenant and cooperative relationship, the situation in the world today is too complicated, and some things have to be guarded against.

However, the sudden disappearance of Yuwenba after entering the Western Turks made Xue Huaming quite annoyed. Daxin Kingdom is now expanding its territory everywhere, but it is almost as smooth as a bamboo, whether it is a land battle or a water battle, it is almost at his fingertips.

But why did Yuwenba suddenly enter the Western Turks?

And playing with disappearance, where did he go?

Could it be related to the remnants of Sabolo Khan?

Just when Xue Huaming was worried, some soldiers came to say that Khan wanted to see him, so Xue Huaming immediately packed his clothes and went to Khan's big tent.
