Efforts to kill the enemy is not as good as the full level of tea art

Later that day, Zhuo Yue wanted to ask Li Changxing to return the things he had accepted to Miss Zheng's family several times, but he avoided them cleverly.It was about to start, and he was busy with business, Zhuo Yue couldn't keep staring at him, so the matter was delayed.

In the early morning of the next day, 2000 members of the Zuo Army set off first, heading north in the dim blue light of the morning, heading for the mountains and forests not far away.

The terrain is rugged and complex, and it is extremely easy to get lost among the undulating mountains without a guide.At first, the team marched on the open plain, blowing the cool breeze in the morning, and still in the mood to admire the mountains in the distance.

At this time, the dawn has not yet broken, the sun is faint, and the majestic and continuous mountains are still silent in a darkness that is indistinguishable from dawn.Only the outlines of the mountains reaching to the sky are clearly discernible, against the gray sky, they seem to be hollows that have been chiseled on the sky wall.The dark mountain shadow weighs on the plain, and it also weighs on people's hearts.

But after walking for a while, the soldiers did not wait for the sun to break through the clouds.The sky above the head was getting darker, and the thick clouds almost fell to the top of the mountain.A long wind suddenly picked up, blowing the sand and gravel in disorder, making the chain armor of the soldiers jingle, and making people feel panic.

Zhuo Yue is not a superstitious person.But the weather on the day of the expedition was indeed not auspicious.

Sure enough, not long after they entered the mountain, it started to rain lightly.At first they didn't take it seriously, thinking that the dark cloud would stop after the rain.

But who would have thought that once it rained, it would last for seven days.

In the first few days, it went down and down, and occasionally I could see some sunshine.But on the seventh day, the dragon king who sprinkled water in the sky seemed to give up, and the torrential rain poured down.With that violent force, it seemed as if someone opened a hole in the sky and poured water directly down.

At first, the soldiers could barely march in the rain, but gradually as the rain intensified, the mountain rose and the ground was wet and slippery, the marching speed gradually slowed down.The jackets that the soldiers wore inside were filled with water, and they were so heavy that every step was a puddle. What's more, there was heavy wind and rain at this time, and the drenched people would be shivering with cold when the cold wind blew.

Gritting his teeth and walking for two hours, the leader of the army called to rest on the spot.The soldiers collapsed to the ground one after another, hiding under the trees and beside the rocks in twos and threes, their pale faces were full of exhaustion.

Zhuo Yue also wanted to lie down and rest, but he was the commander in chief, so he had to agree on a marching plan.

The name of the deputy commander who led the 2000 men this time was Chang Lan, who was once a mighty general in Lou's army.At this time, his brows were tightly frowned, his face was serious but not flustered, and he was listening to the report of the local guide.

"...This sky phenomenon is really rare!" The guide said hoarsely, "It is reasonable to say that the early spring in the north of us is dry and rainless, so the weather should be sunny and cold."

"When will the rain stop?" Chang Lan asked.

"Oh, the small ones don't count, so I don't know. But as the old saying goes, 'There is a thunder in the beginning of spring, and the sky will not be seen in January', 'The day of the beginning of spring is rainy, and it is cloudy and damp until Qingming'. Since it rains I guess it won't stop for a while."

Chang Lan frowned and remained silent, as if meditating.

Zhuo Yue knew what he was hesitating about.Marching in heavy rain and deep mountains is extremely dangerous, not to mention the slippery and steep roads, and there is a high possibility of getting sick while driving in the rain.But they have already stepped into the mountains with one foot, and the task of chasing down the deserters of Zhagan is even more urgent. If they miss the military plane because they don't arrive at Yingluojian on time in a few days, Chang Lan will probably lose his head.

After hesitating for a moment, Chang Lan still ordered to march as usual.

After this order was issued, they had no way of turning back. After all, the mountains were rugged and they only had ten days' rations.

Either hungry and thirsty, trapped in the mountain, or the Jedi reversed and broke out of the mountain.

Zhuo Yue returned to his team with a heavy heart.He ordered all the soldiers to check whether their guns and rations were properly wrapped in waterproof oil paper. After checking, it turned out that some people forgot to wrap the oil paper.

The ration they often ate when marching in a hurry was fried yellow rice, which was easy to carry and very filling, but it turned into water soup when poured with water.At this time, Zhuo Yue heard the captain report that the fried yellow rice of the soldiers had been drenched by the rain, and he immediately became angry: "Damn you don't have a brain! How many times have you explained that the firearm rations must be wrapped in oil paper regardless of whether it rains or not! If there is no food You guys plan to drink the northwest wind?!"

All the soldiers fell silent.The rain was pouring on their heads, and the terrified and bewildered faces were reflected in the hazy sky, like fat lumps soaked in water.

"Old Zhuo..." Zhang Laohei frowned.He also didn't quite understand why Zhuo Yue suddenly became so angry.

Only Guan Ximing was looking at him worriedly.

Zhuo Yue irritatedly wiped the water off his face.Different from the wet and cold condition on his body, there seemed to be a burning pain in his stomach suddenly, as if all the internal organs were pressing against the empty stomach pouch, making his throat feel like vomiting.

"The whole army is starting." He casually dropped the words and strode towards the front of the team.

Guan Ximing trotted behind him, hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't help shouting: "Brother Zhuo, it's okay, everyone's rations are still enough."

Zhuo Yue stopped abruptly, turned his head and stared at him coldly: "Guan Ximing, where is your position in the team?"

Guan Ximing was dumbfounded.

Zhuo Yue shouted sharply: "Return to the team!"

Guan Ximing blinked silently, said nothing, turned his head and left sadly.

The team continued to march in the deep mountains.The road is also becoming more and more difficult to walk. The gravel mixed with sand and sand on the ground with a lot of rainwater makes people feel like they are walking on ice.Later, the soldiers had no choice but to tie a hemp rope around their waists, one by one, one by one, and one by one, and they staggered and supported each other.

The pouring rain finally stopped slowly in the evening, but the sky did not clear up. The dark clouds above the head stirred and circled, and the next rain seemed to come at any time.Affected by the weather, they only completed half of the journey they were going to catch today, but the soldiers were exhausted, so the master had no choice but to order everyone to rest where they were and start their journey tomorrow.

In this wilderness, they couldn't set up a camp, so they had to spread the few oilcloths on the ground and lie on the ground.What's worse, they can't bury the pot to make food in order not to reveal their whereabouts, lest the Zhagan people see the rising smoke from the kitchen in the distance.The soldiers who were forced to take a cold shower for a day could only sit in the cold and muddy rainwater, barely eating with dry fried yellow rice and a small amount of water.

While everyone was eating in silence, Zhuo Yue sat cross-legged at the side, closing his eyes and resting his mind.He didn't seem hungry, and he didn't even intend to take out his rations.

There were footsteps beside him, and Li Changxing sat down beside him: "Brother Zhuo, why don't you eat?"

Zhuo Yue's lips twitched: "...not hungry."

"I've been walking for a day, and I haven't gritted my teeth. How can I not be hungry?" Li Changxing handed him his ration, "Do you want to have a bite of mine?"

Zhuo Yue slowly opened his eyes and looked at him coldly: "Pack up your own rations. When you run out of ammunition and food, every bite can save your life. This is no joke."

Li Changxing looked at him thoughtfully, then obediently stood up and left after a while.

He returned to the soldiers and sat down next to Guan Ximing, who was absent-mindedly eating his own food.He patted Guan Ximing's shoulder lightly: "Brother Guan."

"……what?"

"You see Brother Zhuo hasn't eaten all the time." Li Changxing whispered, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Guan Ximing sighed, and replied softly: "It's nothing, he should just worry about not having enough food."

"But each of us has brought water for ten days, and we still have a lot of wealth. How can we not have enough food?"

Guan Ximing said helplessly: "He... hey, he has always been like this. He is more nervous about being hungry."

Li Changxing tilted his head slightly, and asked softly, "Is it because someone forgot to wrap the oil paper just now?"

Guan Ximing hesitated to speak, hesitating whether to speak or not.At this time, Xiao Ga, who was sitting behind them, suddenly said coldly: "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. Your ration is not wet, right?"

Guan Ximing swallowed the words that came to his lips, and shook his head apologetically at Li Changxing. Li Changxing pursed his lips and smiled without asking further questions.

The sky is gloomy, and there is no difference between day and night in the mountains, but the cold wind circling the valley is a bit more bleak, as if there is a restless beast wandering in the darkness, and from time to time it makes a long growl. The sound is chilling.

Except for the night watchmen, the soldiers took the time to fall asleep, because they had to set off at dawn.Although Zhuo Yue sat cross-legged against the rock with his eyes closed, he never fell asleep, his ears listening to the sounds around him.There were bursts of pain in the empty stomach, like a hammer beating his nerves all the time.

In the darkness with closed eyes, the fragments of the previous dream reappeared involuntarily in his mind.

The dream he saw after he was seriously injured and unconscious in Danji City.

The cries and struggles of the past came to him through the corridors of dreams and memories, and accompanied by the burning pain in his stomach at this time, it seemed that even his body had returned to decades ago.The Gobi is thousands of miles away, the desert is dead and silent, and the cold sun of Chiqing shoots at him like an arrow.But when he suddenly opened his eyes and returned to the cold and rainy mountains, the fragments of memory gradually dissipated.

Zhuo Yue took a long breath, and slowly closed his eyes again.

This time, he finally fell asleep in a daze.

But within two or three hours, he woke up again, this time he was woken up by the heavy rain.Sure enough, God was not forgiving, and it rained again in the middle of the night, and this time the rain was even more violent.Many of the sleeping soldiers were awakened by the shower, and they all muttered and complained.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed the corner of Zhuo Yue's clothes, and when he turned his head, he saw Li Changxing, and this kid slid up to him at some point.Now he looked like he had just woken up, but he frowned and showed worry: "...Brother Zhuo, I seem to have heard something."

"What sound?" Zhuo Yue was taken aback.

"It's rumbling, I can't tell." Li Changxing hesitated, "It's like thunder, but it's boring if it lasts... It's not like a wild beast, the sound is very far away."

Zhuo Yue was stunned.His ears were not as good as Li Changxing's, and now he could only hear the sound of rain, but behind the sound of rain, there seemed to be a broad and dull voice, which was loud and ready to move.

A cold premonition rose from my heart.

Zhuo Yue jumped up suddenly, and strode towards the direction of the Zhongjun.

At this time, everyone had already woken up one after another, and Chang Lan was discussing with the generals beside him with a tired face, as if discussing whether to leave early.Zhuo Yue rushed over and saluted hastily, and said anxiously: "General, the rain is too heavy at this time. I am worried that there will be a drastic change in the mountain and the danger of mud and rocks rolling down."

Chang Lan was a little surprised, and turned to look at the guide beside him: "Is Mr. Zhuo telling the truth?"

The guide turned pale when he heard this, and said hesitantly: "Yes, there is such a thing. But I have been walking in the mountains for decades, but I have never encountered it. I only heard people from the previous generation mention mud and rocks after heavy rain Kuangyong, everyone calls this the 'Dry Land Dragon King'."

Zhuo Yue said anxiously: "Listen carefully. Are there other sounds after the sound of rain?"

Everyone shut up one after another, pale and frightened faces, accompanied by the pouring rain, made the atmosphere even more mysterious and frightening.The guide knelt down, leaned on the ground with one hand and listened attentively, and gradually his face became frightened.

"Okay, it seems to be..." He pursed his lips, almost unable to speak, "The earth—the earth seems to be shaking!"

Chang Lan stood up abruptly, and shouted sharply: "The whole army! Let the whole army go!"

All of a sudden there was chaos.Everyone rushed to their bags in a hurry, and the order was passed down one after another. The noise and the sound of armor colliding woke up in this rainy night in an instant.The rumbling heavy rain and the hasty human voice intertwined with each other, composing the most frantic prelude in this wild mountain.

In the midst of all the chaos, the guide hissed and shouted: "Go forward—go back—don't run up and down!"

Zhuo Yue turned his head and ran towards his team.His heart was beating like a beating, and the blood in his body was rushing, hitting his whole body like a stormy wave.

The people at the end of the team hadn't fully heard the order, and some soldiers were still sitting on the ground in a daze, not knowing why.Zhuo Yue yelled the order to march out, and went over to pull several people up in person.

"Brother Zhuo!" Li Changxing ran over calling his name, "Your axe!"

Zhuo Yue raised his hand to take the Xuanhua axe, and yelled against the sound of the rain: "The whole team! Return to the team!"

In fact, their actions were already very fast. It was only a cup of tea time, and more than two thousand people had already woken up and were ready to go.

But no matter how fast a person is, it can't compare to the speed of Hades' writing.

"Look-look!" A soldier who raised his eyes suddenly pointed in the direction of the top of the mountain and shouted in horror.

Zhuo Yue suddenly turned around.

He could hardly describe what he saw.

Landslides and rocks cracked, shaking the ground and destroying forests.The overwhelming black tide was like a monster with its mouth open, overwhelming the sky and covering the earth with a mighty momentum, swallowing most of the mountain top in one gulp.The hundred-foot old tree fell instantly, the rocks shattered and fell, mixed with the rumbling rain that never stopped for a moment, it was like returning to the flood!

The loud noise drowned out all voices, and Zhuo Yue almost suspected that he was deaf in both ears.He turned his head and roared to warn everyone, but he couldn't hear his own voice.His eyes caught a glimpse of Xiao Ga running towards him desperately, his mouth shape seemed to be shouting his name, but the black shadow that could devour everything could barely press on top of his head, so he had no choice but to push Xiao Ga hard. Push away.

In the next moment, a strong momentum hit his waist, and he almost rolled down the mountain like a kite with a broken string.

The author has something to say: Lao Zhuo is too miserable, his injury is still not healed, and he encountered a mudslide again hahahaha (I am my own mother who escaped)

As for what the girl from the Zheng family gave to little Li...it will be revealed later!Rubbing hands excitedly.

ps. I didn’t check carefully in the chapter of rushing to the airport, so I’ll catch bugs later~
