Chapter 910: Into the Desert
After reading it, Lan Xiang carefully put away the two maps, and casually waved a small fireball to burn the letter, and then said to the man, "I won't ask you about your identity or your origin, but I trust you." ”
The man nodded and praised, "The princess really understands the righteousness!"
Lan Xiang said again: "Is there any other information?"
"Yes!" said the man, "if the princess did not believe what I had sent, then there would be no other information. Since the princess believes it, then I will continue. ”
Lan Xiang nodded and waited for the next step.
The man said: "There are demonic beasts domesticated by the Demon Dao in the Hanhai Desert, and the so-called demonic beasts are soul beasts that have the attributes of the Demon Dao exercises, which are extremely strong, and they are by no means comparable to ordinary soul beasts. ”
"Where exactly will the demonic beasts appear in the desert?" Lan Xiang asked with a slight frown.
The man said: "The whereabouts of the demonic beast are uncertain, and the entire desert may appear anywhere. ”
Lanxiang nodded in thought and did not speak.
The man added: "It has been ascertained that the Demon Dao has a heavy army in the westernmost part of the desert, and it is a westward expedition army specifically aimed at this imperial court. ”
Hearing this news, Lan Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, which showed that the four generals and military advisors might not be the so-called spies, because they all advocated going directly through the desert, and they all suspected that the Demon Dao would be spread in the westernmost part of the desert, so, at least from the current point of view, they had no possibility of harming the army.
"Anything else?"
"No more. ”
Lan Xiang nodded: "I have lifted the ban around the military tent, you can leave, since you can enter our army silently, you can naturally leave silently." ”
The man got up, bowed and said, "There will be a period later." After saying that, he flashed out of the military tent, silently.
Subsequently, Lan Xiang immediately summoned several military leaders to a meeting and announced two news, one is that there are vicious demonic beasts in the desert, and the second is that the demon road has a heavy army in the westernmost part of the desert, and the army only needs to beware of demonic beasts when passing through the desert.
After announcing the news, Lan Xiang carefully observed the expressions of everyone present, she was naturally observing who would have a different color on their face, if there was a trace of a different color, it was very likely that it was the spy.
However, Lan Xiang didn't see anyone with different colors, and she naturally hoped that there were no spies in the army, so she was a little more at ease.
The next day, the army continued its march into the Hanhai Desert.
The easternmost part of the desert, that is, the area where it meets the Central Plains, has good climatic conditions, after all, it is close to the Central Plains, and it has received a lot of influence from the climate of the Central Plains.
However, the farther west you go, the more you walk towards the center of the desert, the drier and hotter the air becomes, and besides, the Hanhai Desert is no ordinary desert, it is a veritable sea of death, and it is even hotter than ordinary deserts.
The soldiers were so thirsty that they kept drinking water, and if this was the case, the water in the water bladders that the soldiers carried with them would soon be depleted, and after they had consumed the water they carried with them, they would have to consume only the reserve water of the army.
And if the water used by the army for the whole journey to the west starts to be consumed at this time, it will not be enough to support it until the end.
Faced with such a situation, Lan Xiang thought quickly in her mind, according to the Demon Dao information she had collected before, the Hanhai Desert was indeed hotter and drier than ordinary deserts, but it was not as dry and hot as it was at this moment, someone must have arranged a special formation in the desert.
However, although Lan Xiang has studied the various formation prohibitions in the world, he can't see that there are formations around him at the moment, let alone breaking the formation.
And at this moment, the water that the soldiers carry with them is still being consumed rapidly, and if this continues, I am afraid that even the reserve water of the army will not be enough, and the army may be wiped out here.
In this regard, the military advisor Liang Shanwen could not give an effective solution, and the four generals and the supervising army were also helpless.
The imperial army is facing unprecedented difficulties, and it is very likely that it has not seen the shadow of the Demon Dao before it has ended this magnificent westward expedition.
If this is the case, then this western expedition will become the worst record of the Western Expedition of the Central Plains forces in the past dynasties, and it will end before it begins, and I am afraid that it will become a laughing stock in the whole world.
Then, all the heads of the army, even Princess Lanxiang, don't need to go back, even if they go back cheekily, the emperor will definitely not forgive.
At this moment of life and death, a person appeared in front of Lan Xiang, this person was none other than the person from the Demon Dao who sent the information last night.
"Princess, you're in trouble. The man didn't have any politeness, and said directly.
Although she was in a hurry, Arashika still maintained a rare calmness, because she was already cold, and her deep personality would not make her panic.
"It's been difficult. Lan Xiang was also polite and said directly. "Do you have a solution?"
The man laughed and said, "Since I have come, I must have brought a solution." ”
Lan Xiang immediately dismounted, and then knelt down on one knee in front of the man, arched his hand and said, "Please advise the master!"
The man was immediately terrified, hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Lan Xiang, and said, "The princess is like this, it really torments me." With that, he took out a storage bag and handed it to Lan Xiang.
This storage bag looks ordinary, that is, what a general storage bag looks like, and you can buy it for a few dozen taels of silver in the market.
The man also did not sell it, and explained: "This is not an ordinary storage bag, but a storage bag that has been refined by the furnace of creation, and the water stored in it can be replenished indefinitely, that is, there is water in it that can never be used up, enough for the army to pass through the desert smoothly." ”
Lan Xiang did not suspect it at all, and immediately ordered the guards around her to distribute the stock of water to the soldiers, and the guards immediately took the order and left. Then, Lan Xiang carefully put away the storage bag, which was the reserve water for the army from then on.
However, a moment later, the guards hurriedly reported that the army's reserve water had been lost!
Lan Xiang's heart suddenly twitched, although she was very reluctant to admit this fact, she also had to face it: among the imperial army, there were indeed spies! Moreover, the power of this spy was not small, and he could steal the reserve water of the army!
Who is it?
There was a hint of anger on Lan Xiang's beautiful face, but she quickly calmed down and said to the guards: "Distribute the water in this storage bag to everyone, according to the ration of each person, and be sure to return the storage bag to me after the distribution!"
"During the distribution, the march must not be stopped, and the advance must be accelerated!" Lan Xiang said sharply, "Be sure to cross the Hanhai Desert as soon as possible!"
