Ye Zhiqiu smiled bitterly: "Now Chen Ying is the king of the Western Regions, what is he afraid to do?"
Changsun Wuji was so angry that his face was livid, but there was nothing he could do.
The defenders who stayed in front of Changsun Wuji's mansion, except for the leading lieutenant, were all soldiers of the barbarian army. They couldn't understand the language, so there was no way to bribe them.
Ye Zhiqiu looked at the helpless eldest grandson Wuji, and said in a low voice, "Why don't you try again at night when you are humbled?"
Changsun Wuji sighed and said, "It's useless!"
"Useless?" Ye Zhiqiu asked in amazement: "How can it be useless?"
Changsun Wuji said: "We didn't have faith, so we couldn't pass through the cities along the way. Now the snow and ice all over the sky are enough to seal everything out of the Western Regions!"
PS: It’s finally getting better, let’s continue to code words first, thank you very much for your concern!

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Nature is cruel and unforgiving.Now Chen Ying finally had a clear understanding.A strong cold current from Siberia came suddenly, and the whole small Milan oasis suddenly became a world covered with ice and snow.
Although the soldiers had cotton-padded coats and hats, 31 soldiers were frozen to death overnight. These soldiers were all standing. Freeze.
When Chen Ying saw them again, they were still on duty, but they were not breathing.Chen Ying is not a hard-hearted person. He has heard about the volunteer army in North Korea, and the soldiers were frozen into ice sculptures. However, he did not have an intuitive understanding of that. Chen Ying did not expect that his own army would encounter such a situation.
Continuing to march at this time is irresponsible for the lives of soldiers, and camping on the spot is not a good idea.The soil was so hard that it was frozen by the cold wave, and it was almost as hard as steel. It was impossible to dig a nest to temporarily avoid the cold wave.
In the small Milan oasis, there are still some Populus euphratica, but this little fuel cannot supply Chen Ying's entire army for more than three days.Zhou Qing sent a sentry to search for the tribes on the oasis, but what he saw was a tribe of more than [-] people, tens of thousands of sheep, thousands of horses, including all the people, men, women and children, all frozen into ice sculptures.
This is a punishment from nature. When Chen Ying saw this scene, he smiled wryly and said: "It seems that this is God's punishment for my willful guard. The death of these people is a warning from heaven to my guard! "
Even Chen Ying, who is an atheist, has serious doubts about his belief at this moment.Even if there is only one mountain range, the Altun Mountain, to the west of Hexi, it is far away from thousands of mountains and rivers, and there is no way.
Chen Ying told Zhou Qing: "Bury all these soldiers!"
Although the ground is as hard as iron, there is really no way.As long as the dry Populus euphratica is burned on the ground, the flame will melt the frozen ground. As long as the flame is extinguished, a deep pit can be dug in at least a quarter of an hour.
In this way, the soldiers worked hard to bury these soldiers who died of freezing, so as to prevent them from dying in the wilderness.
The soldiers under Chen Ying silently collected the frozen cattle, sheep and horses of this tribe. Now that their fuel is scarce, these frozen corpses of cattle, sheep and horses can be skinned to keep out the cold, and they can also increase the source of meat. No matter how bad it is, the fat of cattle and sheep can also be used as fuel to burn fire to keep warm.
Ashina Simo could only order the soldiers to collect all the things in the tribe that could be worn and kept out of the cold.Chen Ying occupied this unknown tribe on the spot, but also found that the whole tribe was frozen to death because of the fuel shortage.
This is the tragedy of this era. People can avoid war disasters, but they cannot escape the punishment from nature. This is a helpless thing.
These corpses stripped naked by the soldiers looked extremely dazzling in Chen Ying's eyes, as if they were like a thorn, making Chen Ying feel uncomfortable.
Chen Ying sighed and said, "Bury them too!"
Ashina Simo shook his head and said: "General Protector, we have no objection to burying our own brother, but they, forget it!"
Chen Ying's body was shaking to increase his body temperature. He stomped his feet and said, "As a human being, you have to be conscientious. Although they died, their death has nothing to do with us, but we took away their property. Even if all the cattle, sheep and horses are frozen to death, they are their property, people cannot be brought back to life, and we cannot watch them go wild.”
Ashina Simo is not afraid of hard work, but afraid of insufficient fuel. You must know that 31 people were buried just now, and more than 300 dry Populus euphratica trees were burned. In fact, there are thousands of Populus euphratica trees in the entire Milan Oasis. Burying more than 200 more people means burning more than [-] trees in vain, which is too wasteful.
Seeing Ashina Simo hesitate, Chen Ying said with a straight face: "Follow the order!"
Ashina Simo had no choice but to turn around and leave to carry out the order.
Using the original method, he piled dry Populus euphratica on the ground, then poured oil on it and ignited it, and quickly formed a big fire. However, when he was warming in the wild, one side of the body was almost cooked, but the back was still cold.
This group of personal guards of the Great Guardian Mansion turned their backs to the fire, and then faced the fire for a while.
However, a moment later, a spectacle appeared, and snow formed above the fire and began to fall.
Zhou Qing's snot flowed to his mouth, and when he touched it with his sleeve, the snot turned into icicles and fell to the ground. Zhou Qing cursed from time to time: "Oh my God, this is so weird!"
"This is so rare for you!" Chen Ying explained: "The cold wave usually lasts for three or two days at most, and it does not exceed five days at most. This is a unique climate in the Gobi wasteland. The water vapor cannot turn into clouds and can only stay in the low altitude. They are pervasive, and because of them, at the same low temperature, you will feel even colder. After the bonfire heats the damp and cold air, the moisture contained in the air turns into fine snowflakes and falls. This is natural The phenomenon is not surprising!"
After the frozen layer is melted by the burning fire sink, it is easy to dig.
In order to save trouble, the soldiers of the Zhechong Mansion dug a huge pit and planned to bury all the more than 300 corpses in it. When the soldiers dug four or five feet deep into the ground, a soldier suddenly became excited. roared: "Look, what is this?"
All the soldiers hurriedly gathered around: "Did you find gold? Or gems?"
The soldier continued to dig down vigorously, revealing the dark and shiny black soil underground. These soldiers were not ignorant, they already knew clearly that this kind of thing was coal.With coal, especially inexhaustible coal, they would have no problem surviving this cold snap.
All the soldiers shouted excitedly while digging.
Soon Chen Ying discovered this amazing discovery.
Chen Ying heaved a sigh of relief, this was simply a gift from heaven to him.
The formation of the Western Regions is a magical creation of nature. In ancient times, the Western Regions were oceans. Later, the crust slowly moved and the mantle rose, forming the mountains of the Western Regions. However, the Western Regions have gone through a long history of oceans, grasslands, The evolution of the forest to the wilderness today.
The abundance of resources in the Western Regions in later generations is astounding, among which coal accounts for 40.00% of my rabbit, and oil exceeds one-third. Milan is a billion-level coal mine in later generations, and it is a semi-open-pit coal mine.The key is that because of the burning problem here, there is no way to survive the winter, so generally speaking, this oasis with an area of less than 600 square kilometers has only a few hundred habitats.
With coal, everything is much easier.Keep the fire burning, and pour boiled snow water on the tents, which will soon be frozen into ice cubes. Slowly, the tents will form igloos, and all the tents will be opened to form a small igloo. In a small ice city, there are enough cattle, sheep and horses here, and there is no shortage of meat. It is definitely not a problem to persist until the cold wave recedes.
Ashina Simo, who had always been resistant to Chen Ying's orders, was also dumbfounded looking at this scene. He thought that Chen Ying must know that there is a wealth of coal underground in Milan, and he asked him to bury these corpses just to give the coal The discovery creates a favorable excuse.
Chen Ying may be sure that he has never been to the Milan Oasis before. As for why Chen Ying is so unpredictable, Ashina Simo attributed it to Chen Ying's instinct of a super famous coach.
Follow Chen Ying and you will never get into trouble.
All the soldiers entered the warm tent, happily sat around the stove, grilling mutton, beef, and even horse meat, and the morale that had been sluggish began to soar.
……
Outside Dasan Pass, several Baiqisi spies were looking around in a tea shed near the official road.Although the winter in Guanzhong is not as cold as in the Western Regions, this is only a tea shed surrounded by thatch, and it is also ventilated from all sides. A dozen or so sentries of Baiqisi stared at the pedestrians on the official road here.
Since Baiqisi did not have the blessing of Li Shimin's halo at this time, the personnel recruited were extremely diverse, including rangers and gangsters who had a hard time living.
A bearded man holding a waist knife approached a man who looked like a leader next to him and said, "Head Zheng, we men are drinking the northwest wind here, what are you trying to do! It's been three days, and there are no ghosts on the official road. No!"
Zheng Tou is actually Zheng Rentai's distant nephew, named Zheng Wencai.Zheng Wencai injured someone's life in Luoyang, was wanted by the government, followed Zheng Rentai's path, took refuge in Baiqisi, and became a small boss.
Zheng Wencai glanced at the bearded man and said: "Your mother is talking too much nonsense, the superior ordered us to watch here, and we will just watch here. There is wine and meat here, and you don't have to worry about eating and drinking. What do you care about so much?"
The bearded man said: "There is a shortage of wine and meat, but brothers, aren't they afraid of being choked up?"
Zheng Wencai scolded with a smile: "Sooner or later your motherfucker will die on a woman's belly!"
"Isn't there a poem saying it? When peony flowers die, ghosts are also romantic!" At this moment, the bearded woman said to a woman in a red cloak on the official road: "Zhengtou, look, that mother Are they good?"
Zheng Wencai turned his head to look, and saw a woman in red dress passing by like a cloud of fire in the distance, disappeared at the end of the horizon in a flash, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, licking his lips and said: "Who is that woman from? It still looks pretty!"
Zheng Wencai's spirit lifted. It's really rare to see a woman who can ride a strong horse and draw a strong bow these days. Although she can't see the woman's appearance clearly from such a distance, the heroic figure still makes him excited. , this woman is probably the Yuwen Zhaoyi whom the superior asked them to find, he immediately shouted: "Follow me! There will be a reward for catching that woman!"
