Mohist Tang

Chapter 566

When the sunset fell again, the Tang Army scouts who were investigating in the distance returned one after another, but unfortunately this time Tang Army still came back empty-handed and found no news about the oasis at all.

“General Cheng! Another 600 horses will be exhausted today!” After the army camped, Commander Ma came in with a painful expression to report.

As the army gets deeper and deeper into the desert, the consumption of the materials it carries increases sharply, and the number of horses that the Tang Army needs to slaughter is increasing. According to the previous practice, once the materials on the horseback are exhausted, Killed it, but this time it was going to kill six hundred horses at once.

Six hundred horses!

Rao is Cheng Yaojin who has been prepared for a long time, and can’t help but eyelids twitched. This is not a small number!

“Kill!” Cheng Yaojin clenching one’s teeth and said, it is not difficult for him to choose between the safety of horses and soldiers.

Commander Ma sighed helplessly, turned his head and was about to leave. Mo Dun’s voice suddenly stopped him.

“Master Sima wait a minute, these six hundred horses may not need to be slaughtered!” Mo Dun said.

“Really?”

Commander Ma turned around and asked with a surprised look. Even Cheng Yaojin couldn’t believe it and looked at Mo Dun, knowing that he is the most insistent on killing horses. It’s Mo Dun.

Mo Dun solemnly nodded: “Yes, according to our armys itinerary, Tulunchuan is not far away, and our army has a surplus of drinking water. The consumption of these six hundred war horses is halved. After finding the Tulunchuan, the supply will naturally not be a problem.”

What the army lacks is drinking water. As long as the Tulunchuan is found, some of the water is the source of water. In this way, these six hundred war horses can still become a return. The help of the army.

Commander Ma could not help looking towards Cheng Yaojin with hopeful gaze, Cheng Yaojin without the slightest hesitation’s nodded saying: “Do as Mo Dun said.”

The army has already It has been five days since I entered the desert, and Compass guided the direction along the way. There was no deviation at all. Tulunchuan must be not far away. Naturally, Cheng Yaojin also pushed the boat along the way to save the horses.

“The order continues, today’s food is doubled, and I have enough energy to prepare for the battle. After the battle, I can go home later.” Cheng Yaojin shouted.

Soon there was a burst of cheers from the army, and victory was in sight, and the Tang Army officers were naturally excited.

The excitement of the army continued until the early morning of the 2nd day, and the army was ready to go as soon as it broke.

“__oungster!” Cheng Yaojin took a deep breath, looking at Mo Dun with inquiry.

Mo Dun lowered his head and looked towards the already adjacent point on the map. With a wave of his arm pointing to the south-west direction, Cheng Yaojin ordered directly without any doubt: “The whole army advances, and the scouts expand to 50 li “

The army started again. This time all the soldiers were full of dignity. The desert was silent and only the horses rustled on the yellow sand.

Dead silence, a dead silence! Even the hot air seemed to stagnate.

Suddenly, a scout on horseback came from Northwest to Juechen. The scout on horseback looked terrified and waved to warn the army.

But without waiting for him to approach, everyone had already seen the horrible scene behind him, and saw a neat row of sand waves, rushing straight toward the army.

“Sandstorm!”

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. No one thought they would encounter a severe test in the desert.

“Mo youngster, what should I do?” Cheng Yaojin roared.

Mo Dun said without hesitation: “Cover your mouth and nose, tie your horse, and immediately get down, wait for the sandstorm to pass, and then set off.”

Now Cheng Yaojin takes the lead. , Lying on the sand dunes without hesitation, the soldiers of the whole army immediately followed suit, lying there one after another.

“Woo!”

The strong wind whizzed, the rice-sized sand grains were picked up by the strong wind, and slammed on Mo Dun’s back crazily, making a dull pain and even more unbearable Yes, those windy sands are just like with no opportunity, only to the ears and noses.

In front of Heavenly Might, everyone must be in awe. The visibility in the sandstorm can be said to be invisible. The horses on the side are restless and restless. The Tang Army soldiers endure the wind and sand, and they have to calm the horses. But it is very difficult.

This sandstorm has been completely wiped out one day, one night, 2nd day, and the entire sky is blue and refreshed. Only those sand dunes that have moved several feet away can prove the existence of the sandstorm yesterday.

Mo Dun lifted the head from the sand dunes, shook the sand on his body, and looked at the covered in dirt of the soldiers around him, could not help laughing heartily, and soon the laughter spread quickly. This is the case for the entire army, because almost everyone is like this, but even so, no one is willing to wash their faces with precious water.

“How is the army attrition?” Cheng Yaojin didn’t have this hesitation, but immediately checked the situation of the Tang Army.

“Reporting to the general, apart from dozens of horses fleeing, the army has not been injured, but there is still a team of scouts who went to investigate but did not return in time.” Commander Ma’s face was heavy. Tao, in the vast desert, once you lose your way, the consequences will be very serious.

Mo Dun comforted: “Don’t worry too much. All the scouts carry enough food and water for five days. Not at all in a short time. What’s dangerous.”

Cheng Yaojin is heavy. Nodded, a sandstorm delayed the Tang Army for another day, and the whole situation instantly became serious.

Mo Dun was trying to comfort him. Suddenly he swept away and saw the familiar silhouette appearing on the sand dunes facing Southwest. A team of scouts have endured the hardships of a long journey appeared in the sight of everyone.

“Reporting to General! Southwest 50 li, found the trail of the Tuyuhun cavalry!” The scouts rushed straight to Cheng Yaojin, crying with joy, and the mud and sand mixed with tears flowed out of a ravine on their face, very funny.

However, no one laughed at this moment. Instead, all of them couldn’t help but shed tears, weeping with joy, and soon the same two trenches hung on the faces of many soldiers.

“Okay, stop peeing, that’s also water.” Cheng Yaojin scolded, but a smile couldn’t hide on his face.

“Tulunchuan is here!”

All the soldiers are suddenly enlightened. At this moment, all their hardships are gone, only full of pride and pride.

Mo Dun is also heavily sighed in relief. Along the way, they have experienced extreme heat, quicksand traps, mirages, and sandstorms. It can be said that after suffering all the way, all the hard work finally paid off.

Tulunchuan arrived, and found the Tuyuhun cavalry, Na Fu Yun must be there.

The wind gusted up below Tang Army’s feet. After flipping through several hills, the terrain gradually became low-lying, and some sparse vegetation gradually appeared.

Farther away, the vegetation gradually became denser. A small river meanders and circulates, and thousands of tents are scattered on both banks.

This is Tulunchuan!

Fu Yun’s last hiding place.
