General, your bun is here!
Chapter 16. Into the Desert
A few days later, the guard post on the city wall saw the smoke of the wolf coming from a distance, which was the news of the Hu people's attack.The cavalry, infantry, and archers lined up outside the city, and guards were deployed inside the city and on the city walls, but it was the wind and sand that came first than the Hu cavalry.
Although the sandstorm is not as raging as the black sandstorm, it is still big enough. The archery team will never be able to find their aim in such weather, especially if it is against the wind; the weaker soldiers are a little unstable and their visibility is not high. It was very unfavorable to the soldiers of the Cangxuan Dynasty who were not used to such weather.
The cavalry lined up on both sides, the infantry lined up in the middle, and the archers lined up behind. Standing still in the wind and sand, it was really like a solid defense line built by iron-blooded men. It was very powerful. Zhang Xiaoqiu, who saw it for the first time, was shocked.
The third prince was not there, and the Lord Duan that Chen Yu was talking about acted as the commander-in-chief. As the third prince's confidant, Chen Yu guarded the city wall with him.
The wind and sand greatly affected the visibility of the Cangxuan army. When the outpost reported the news of the barbarian cavalry, the barbarian cavalry was close enough to them.
The barbarian cavalry rushed towards the army of the Cangxuan Dynasty along with the wind and sand, just like devils pouring out of hell, with horses and scimitars, menacing.Because the outpost was discovered too late, the cavalry of the Cangxuan Dynasty were dispersed before they could withstand a long time. The infantry who were vulnerable to a single blow in front of the cavalry was immediately exposed, and the archers as a cover were extremely powerful in the wind and sand. limited.
At this time, the infantry were like fish under the knife of barbarians, ready to be slaughtered. Zhang Xiaoqiu was in the infantry team, and saw a group of heads being harvested around him. Many of them were brothers who knew each other these days, and what they talked about on weekdays were the old parents at home. The hot-blooded men who could pierce a single intestine to the bottom had their heads harvested one by one like they were harvesting crops. The hot blood sprayed from the neck splashed all over Zhang Xiaoqiu, making him almost shattered.
Zhang Xiaoqiu felt that his heart was seized by a huge and invisible anger and sadness, his eyes were red, and he rushed forward to fight the barbarian cavalry without hesitation.
This is the first time he killed someone with a weapon. The feeling of the sharp weapon cutting into the flesh, the clamor of harvesting life, all the sounds of horses, swords, flesh and the smell of wind and sand swept together in a wind and sand, making this place like an endless hell generally.
Zhang Xiaoqiu couldn't feel the passage of time, but the wind and sand swept more and more violently, almost to the point where he couldn't see his fingers. Even so, the soldiers of the Cangxuan Dynasty were still fighting fiercely with the barbarian cavalry.Suddenly, the sound of drumming and drumming came from above the city wall. The sound seemed hurried and flustered. Zhang Xiaoqiu couldn't help but look into the distance. There is no ground or armor left, as long as the things involved in it are torn into pieces.
The soldiers who heard the sound of the horn rushed back into the city quickly, but the speed of Heifengsha far exceeded everyone's expectations, and it was too late to retreat to the place where the storm passed, whether it was from the Cangxuan Dynasty or from the barbarians, They were all involved in it, and disappeared in an instant.
Zhang Xiaoqiu took advantage of the chaos and left the battlefield. He wanted to follow the instructions on the map to find the third prince.What happened on the battlefield just now made him unable to recover for a long time, it was all like a big dream.The fear brought about by war, death, blood, and madness, makes one's soul tremble.
Zhang Xiaoqiu has been studying this map since he got it, and found that the place marked by Chen Yu is not too far from the camp where he is stationed. In his guess, it may be very similar to today's situation.After Cangxuan's army fought with the barbarian cavalry, it was very likely that the barbarian cavalry was at a disadvantage, so the third prince led his troops to chase after him, but he was caught in a black sandstorm just like today.
The other place Chen Yu marked, even though it was a little far away from the missing place, but the Lord Duan who was against the third prince should be able to search and rescue him if he pretended to search, and there might be some other accidents in it.
But the terrain and direction in the desert are really hard to judge for non-locals. Zhang Xiaoqiu was a little dumbfounded after he came out. Even though he had a map in his hand, he could see the desert wherever he looked, and the desert had no fixed shape. It can be judged that it is really difficult to find the place marked by Chen Yu. He can only walk there in a fixed straight line according to the marked direction and the distance from the camp using the method of class.
There were streaks of blood and mud on his face, and the mole that had been put on by make-up also fell off. The wind and sand dried it very much, and the sticky eyelids also fell off, and there were many blood and mud marks on his face. Not clean, Mao Ji disliked him so much that he stayed away from him and led the way, not standing on his shoulders anymore.
The desert is very dry, especially now that it is summer, when the sun shines, everywhere is like a steam oven, with waves of heat.After walking for some time, Zhang Xiaoqiu said speechlessly, "Maoji, are you leading the way right?! Look at that pile of sand over there, have we been here before?"
Maoji said unhappily, "Which pile of sand here doesn't look like it?! I have my own navigation." Looking back at Zhang Xiaoqiu's appearance, his mouth turned white, thinking that he still had a ball in his stomach, and then Unable to bear it, he scratched his chubby hairy stomach, and took out a small kettle from nowhere, "Sit down and take a breath, come, drink some water."
Zhang Xiaoqiu said in surprise, "Hey, when did your furball become so capable!"
Maoji was quite proud, and his round and fluffy body twisted there, as if he was a little embarrassed and said, "Since you and the third prince had a good time last time, and that piece of jade was purified by me, it seems to be upgraded!"
Zhang Xiaoqiu slapped him with a slap, "Chunfeng once you are a ball! Tell me what skills you have grown?!"
Mao Ji scratched his stomach with his wings, and said mysteriously, "I feel like I have become a universal treasure chest, just like Big Bear's doraemon! I can conjure anything you want!"
Zhang Xiaoqiu jokingly said, "Hey, you are so powerful, why don't you just take me directly to the Third Prince!"
Maoji spread his wings helplessly, "That won't work, and I don't know why."
As if sensing something, he lay his chubby body on the ground and felt it for a while, then jumped up and said anxiously to Zhang Xiaoqiu, "Little ball! I heard the sound of horseshoes! The number is not many, about five About six people."
Zhang Xiaoqiu's complexion changed, and he looked at Maoji's chest covered in sand and said, "Do you think it might be someone brought by Zhao Neng?!"
Maoji nodded with difficulty, "Like."
"But they ride horses, why are they slower than us?!"
"I'm a living map! And we're walking in a straight line, they're not familiar with the place, they're likely to get lost."
Zhang Xiaoqiu nodded seriously, then turned his eyes and said, "I have an idea." As he spoke, he whispered in Maoji's ear, Maoji nodded again and again, and after a while, he searched in his Maoji's stomach and took out a whole body Here comes a clean worn-out jacket.
Zhang Xiaoqiu took off his clothes, wiped off the blood all over his body, and wiped some sand on his face and body to get rid of some bloody smell, and buried the blood-stained military uniform in the sand.One person and one chicken leaned on the sand and sat down to rest, and they would block the sun on the spot.
After a while, Zhao Neng and others rode over from a distance. The horses were not easy to walk in the desert, and they couldn't run fast. When they saw Zhang Xiaoqiu and Maoji leaning on the sand, they got suspicious and got off their horses and walked to Zhang Xiaoqiu. .Zhang Xiaoqiu's face is black and muddy now, covered with a lot of sand, and his body is also in an unremarkable brown short jacket. Zhao Neng has never seen Zhang Xiaoqiu a few times, and he really can't recognize him for a while. On the contrary, the chicken beside him is him. It seemed so familiar, and he murmured in his heart that it was very similar to the fat chicken pet that his prince loved in Tianqing Pavilion, but this chicken was obviously much bigger, and it didn't seem to look very similar. Got a pet? !I don't know what species it is, but they all look so round and fat.
Zhang Xiaoqiu saw that Zhao Neng and the others looked cowering, and said timidly, "Hey, where are the military masters going? It's not easy to walk in the desert in this hot weather! A sandstorm is not enough." Take it!"
A little soldier beside Zhao Neng pulled out his scabbard and poked Zhang Xiaoqiu's body a few times, shouting, "Who are you! Why are you here!"
"Master Jun, I am from Gaowang City! I saw a notice posted in the city saying that the third prince has disappeared in this desert. Whoever can find the third prince will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold!" Said He compared a finger, showing a look of money fanatics, and added a few words at the end, "Oh, this third prince also disappeared to protect the people of Cangxuan and fight against the barbarians. As the people of Cangxuan, why don't you Do you have to work hard for that money?! This desert looks endless and open, let me tell you, there are a lot of twists and turns, not us locals, it’s really not easy to find !"
Zhang Xiaoqiu looked very sincere, and the emphasis in the Gaowangcheng dialect was so strangely learned, he looked at a few people from the corner of his eye, and saw some loose expressions on their faces.Zhao Neng asked a soldier beside him strangely, "Did Gaowang City really post a notice to find the third prince?!"
The soldier also looked confused, scratched his head and said, "The news of the third prince's disappearance has been spread, and Gaowang City is close to the camp, so the county magistrate and squire probably spontaneously posted the search for the third prince." Notice. This fucking desert, non-native, is fucking hard to find."
Zhao Neng nodded, thinking it made sense, and said in a serious manner, "It counts as they have intentions!"
Pointing to Zhang Xiaoqiu again, "Well, what's your name?!"
Zhang Xiaoqiu rolled his eyes, stepped forward and said, "Master Hui Jun, the villain's name is Zhang Erwa."
"Yeah, Zhang Erwa. We are under the Third Prince, and we are here to find the Third Prince. This desert is so fucking hard to find the way! You can lead us! It will be of your benefit to find the Third Prince!"
Zhang Xiaoqiu nodded and bowed there, seeming very happy to agree.

The archery team will never be able to find their aim in such weather, especially if it is against the wind; the weaker soldiers are a little unstable and their visibility is not high.
