Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Compared with the era Ning Fan lived in, the most uncomfortable thing about this era is that information is underdeveloped. Information transmission is too slow. Everything needs to be measured by foot. There is no radio or network.

Unlike the era before Ning Fan traveled through time, news from thousands of miles away could be known in an instant, but now he had to wait for more than ten days.

Ning Fan reacted quickly. He immediately sent a courier, Babaili, to tell the mission's Ergou and Lolis to stay calm, stick to principles and negotiate with the Miluo people, and not to be affected by this attack. .

"Your Majesty, don't worry. What should come will come, and what shouldn't come will come. In short, let things happen."

Xiao Lingxi gently held Ning Fan's hand. She could feel Ning Fan's anxiety these days.

Ning Fan raised his head and looked into the distance, as if his eyes could penetrate time and space, see Ergou and Lolis far away in the desert outside the Great Wall.

At this time, in the midst of wind and sand, the hot smell of the desert made everyone in the mission extremely uncomfortable.

The corpses that had been left for a few days began to rot quickly, and Ergou was also worried at this time. Logically speaking, the bodies of these soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country should be brought back to the country for burial, but in this vast desert, it is difficult to find the bodies. It is really difficult to bring these corpses back.

Lolis is a little girl who loves cleanliness the most. When she smelled the stench coming from the tent in the distance, she couldn't help but frown. However, out of respect for these fallen soldiers from the bottom of her heart, Lolis did not Say anything, and suffer in silence like the other members of the mission.

"This can't continue like this. If the weather is too hot, it might cause a plague. Let's put these soldiers on the border between Dakang and Miluo, and let the heroic spirits of these soldiers guard our border in Dakang forever. "

There was really no other way, Ergou could only bear the pain and made this decision.

More than 500 corpses were piled up like a hill. In the evening, under the leadership of Ergou, the Jinyi guards found some dry poplar trees on the surrounding Gobi beaches, and then used horses to pull these poplar trees to where the corpses were piled. Around the tent, wood was piled up into a hill.

Ergou, whose nose was covered with white gauze, looked sad. He held a torch and solemnly came to the pyre and lit the fire under the witness of everyone.

The melodious sound of the morin fiddle and the clear singing voice of Princess Lolis are like the breeze in the dark night.

In the blazing bonfire, the heroic spirits of these soldiers turned into a ball of fire, lighting up the dark night.

After sending away the bodies of these fallen soldiers, Ergou put on his mask again, took a dozen guards with him, and came to the Gobi Desert.

On the Gobi Desert at night, the temperature was extremely low, and Ergou had to put on a thick coat at this time.

"Sir, why are we looking at these corpses?"

A Jinyiwei finally couldn't help but complain.

This time, more than 500 Jin Yiwei were killed, but they also caused unimaginable trauma to the enemy. The enemy suffered heavy casualties under the Jin Yiwei's modern guns, and suffered more than a thousand casualties, nearly twice as many as Jin Yiwei.

"I suspect that the identity of this group of people is not simple. Judging from their appearance, they are not Miluo people. Miluo people have dark skin and short stature, but these people are tall and fair-skinned."

Ergou came to investigate a few days ago, but did not find any useful clues, but now he is still unwilling to give in. He is ready to give one last try before leaving to see if he can find any useful clues.

Finding out the true identity of this group of attackers will be of great significance to the subsequent negotiations between the two parties. If it is not clear who the attackers are, then the negotiations between Dakang and Miluo will be cast in a shadow. .

I could smell a putrid smell from a distance. This was the scene of the attack a few days ago. There were more than a thousand corpses left at the scene. A large number of vultures were still eating again at night. They sensed that someone was coming. All the vultures Flying into the sky.

Less than five days had passed, and many corpses had turned into bones. The air was filled with a foul smell. Ergou finally found several complete corpses in the Shura field and cut them with a knife. After taking off the coat of the corpse, he saw that the corpse had become severely swollen and decayed.

"Sir, let's leave quickly."

Even the accompanying Jinyi Guard Qianhu Panglong felt a little unable to hold on.

This Pang Long was born in the army and had been in the army for more than ten years. He was naturally used to seeing dead people. However, even such a veteran of many battles could still stand unsteadily in this Shura field and was suffocated by the stench. It was so smokey that I couldn't open my eyes.

"You guys retreat first and go to the outside. I'll investigate here alone."

Ergou said while suppressing his nausea.

It's not that Ergou didn't have fear or nausea when facing corpses, but he had a strong sense of mission. This time Ning Fan asked him, a eunuch, to be the leader of the mission. Ergou felt that it was a heavy responsibility and was afraid that If there is anything I cannot do properly, I will be in disgrace to the Emperor.

In the distance, hundreds of Jin Yiwei gathered together. Looking at the two dogs rummaging among the corpses with lanterns on, these Jin Yiwei couldn't help but raise their thumbs.

"It seems that it is not completely unreasonable for Lord Dog, a mere eunuch, to win the trust of the Holy One. This Lord Dog is firstly careful in doing things, secondly responsible, and thirdly open-minded. He is not the rough-and-tumble like us at all. People can compare.”

"Speaking of which, although we people have the skills, but compared with others who don't have the skills, what does that mean?"

The Jinyi guards were talking a lot, and they were full of admiration for Ergou who was alone in the pile of corpses looking for clues.

Speaking of Pang Long, Qianhu Panglong, the Jinyi Guard who escorted the mission this time, he actually looked down upon Ergou at first. He felt that Ergou, a eunuch, was not qualified to be the leader of Dakang's mission, let alone represent Dakang.

So along the way, Pang Long did not obey Ergou's advice, but had many constraints.

However, Ergou was very kind in doing things and never punished Pang Long. Instead, he took good care of Pang Qianhu.

In fact, what remains fresh in Pang Long's memory, and can even be said to have changed Ergou's image, is an attack a few days ago. During the attack, Ergou remained calm in the face of danger. Not only did he refuse the request to retreat, he also He also took the lead and rushed to the front.

Since then, Pang Long has been admiring Ergou. He felt that this thin little eunuch was really unusual and his future achievements would definitely not be too low.
