Chapter 46: Struggle

In the middle of the desert. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

A camouflage-painted military vehicle drove all over the ground under the dunes.

It was already the third day, and Li Xiuyuan found himself lost.

Whether it's on-board radar or satellite positioning systems, all of them have failed.

Fortunately, dry food and fresh water are relatively sufficient, and spare dyeing oil can also ensure a journey of 2,000 kilometers.

"Chief, leave us alone, let's go back to the camp first" The guard poured a jug of water into his mouth, and finally couldn't help but speak.

"Xiao Zhang, I'm afraid things are not as simple as you think" Li Xiuyuan shook his head and refused.

As a martial arts master, a thousand miles away is only a few hours' journey (thousands of miles a day).

Last night, Li Xiuyuan had tried to find a way out, but found that he was being followed.

In order to protect the lives of these little cubs, he had to choose to remain silent and return to the convoy to deal with the changes unchanged.

"What do you mean, chief?" Zhang Kun is also an old subordinate who has followed him for more than ten years, and when he saw Li Xiuyuan's expression, he muttered in his heart.

"Let's save some of our dry food and water." Li Xiuyuan pointed out.

"Water and dry food...... Well, it's only enough for two days. Zhang Kun reacted immediately.

"Lao Wang, if you are tired of driving, we will change shifts"

"Don't be tired, you and the chief have a good rest, I seem to have been on this road" Wang Yi, who was driving, wiped the sweat from his forehead, picked up the kettle from the side and poured it hard, with a happy expression.

"Rest early tonight and continue on the road tomorrow" Li Xiuyuan looked up at the sun in front of him, his eyes squinted, like a male lion that had just woken up.

"Yes," Zhang Kun and Wang Yi immediately responded.

About half an hour later, they parked their military cart on a sand dune and began to set up two large tents.

Zhang Kun was in charge of boiling military rations for dinner, while Wang Yi tried to repair radio equipment.

Unfortunately, electromagnetic interference has always existed, and radio equipment has not been able to send any messages at all.

They probably had to rely on luck to get out of this desert.

……

The night in the desert is exceptionally silent.

The evening breeze was blowing, and the temperature dropped to nearly ten degrees Celsius, and the temperature difference between day and night was extremely large, so Zhang Kun took out a thick blanket early.

"Chief, you haven't slept yet" Zhang Kun found that Li Xiuyuan's tent was brightly lit, so he couldn't help but walk to the door.

"Come in," Li Xiuyuan responded.

Zhang Kun lifted the curtain and walked into the big tent.

I saw Li Xiuyuan reading at night, holding a thread-bound book in his hand.

From a distance, he found that the cover was a few gilded characters "Hai Yunfan Anthology", but it was an anthology published by the former chairman of the National People's Congress.

"Xiao Zhang, you go pour a cup of tea" Li Xiuyuan put down the book in his hand and looked at him deeply.

"Okay" Zhang Kun immediately walked to the corner of the tent, took the teapot and tea leaves from a wooden table, and began to make tea with the hot water in the thermos cup.

Perhaps because of the many days of running in the desert, he felt that the aroma of this pot of tea was particularly attractive.

"Sit," Li Xiuyuan instructed him to sit down on the sand beside him.

Zhang Kun didn't pay attention to it, he straightened his military uniform, and landed on the sand dune, and the whole person fell into the sand a few inches.

"What do you think about this?"

"What are you referring to, chief?"

"Don't worry, Wang Yi can't hear you."

"Chief, are you suspicious of him too?" Zhang Kun looked at Li Xiuyuan with some astonishment.

"Do you think he's still Wang Yi?" Li Xiuyuan asked rhetorically.

Zhang Kun was a little speechless, he and Wang Yi have worked together for many years, and it can be said that they know each other well.

But since a few days ago, when they rushed to a border station, they accidentally lost their way and even the on-board electronic equipment failed, Zhang Kun became suspicious.

Wang Yi is a very careful person, he will check and maintain all the equipment every time he travels, so there are no mistakes over the years.

This time it was accidental, no matter how you look at it, it seems to be deliberate.

"So you asked me to dispose of some of the dry food and water......"

"Well, I've been thankful for you these past few days."

"Chief, what if they plan to sacrifice Wang Yi?" Zhang Kun couldn't help but worry.

After all, Li Xiuyuan is the most important weapon in Huaxia, as long as he can be pulled off the altar, no matter what the price is, it is worth it.

"We are just lost, there is no danger of our lives for the time being, I am afraid that the capital has undergone a big change at this time, and their purpose should only be to temporarily drag us down" Li Xiuyuan looked farther than him.

"Then please rush back to the capital as soon as possible, don't worry about me" Zhang Kun was taken aback.

If these people were dragging Li Xiuyuan in a premeditated manner, they must have a lot of plans.

"Don't worry, only with Fang Cheng here, these bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods can't do anything" Li Xiuyuan was full of confidence in this big killer in the Spring and Autumn Period.

If the world still uses the previous eyes to judge the combat strength of the Spring and Autumn Period, and takes the opportunity of the disappearance of Wang Jingyu and the others to do something big, I am afraid that they will be disappointed after all.

"Minister Fang, I'm afraid it's not a good choice," Zhang Kun still has a lot of prejudices about the big guy who came from the airborne.

Luring the wolf into the house, that's nothing more than that.

"Be careful! The critics are definitely not the actions of a gentleman," Li Xiuyuan immediately opened his mouth and scolded.

He has always regarded Zhang Kun as his own junior, so he doesn't want him to have prejudices against other members of the Spring and Autumn Commission.

"The chief's lesson is" Zhang Kun lowered his head, quite guilty.

However, when it comes to official affairs, it must not be mixed with any personal feelings and subjective judgments in order to ensure fairness and strictness, and this is the basic principle that Li Xiuyuan has always flaunted.

Everything is for the rise of China.

"Okay, you go back and rest first, and act when the opportunity comes."

"Yes, chief" Zhang Kun stood up from the sand neatly, shook off a lot of sand grains, and landed in Li Xiuyuan's teacup, making him frown.

"Chief, I'll help you make a pot of tea," Zhang Kun whispered a little embarrassed.

"It's okay" Li Xiuyuan didn't mind these side points, poured the teacup slightly, and splashed the hot tea on the sand casually.

Snort

The tea that has been attached to the true qi falls on the sand, and suddenly bursts of white smoke rise from the vines, like a fairyland on earth.

Zhang Kun saw that the hole was shrinking, and secretly said in his heart: The chief's kung fu has gone further.

The miracle of burning the mountains and boiling the sea is nothing more than that.

Nothing happened overnight.

Early the next morning, they packed up their tents and set out on the road again.

Fortunately, the weather is sunny and the sun is scorching, so it is no longer a problem to distinguish the direction.

They headed east, over countless sand dunes to the next frontier station.

"Chief, you see there's an oasis to the north, should we take a detour to restock some fresh water?"

At noon on this day, they finally found an oasis.

"It's just a mirage" Li Xiuyuan glanced at it and said indifferently.

"Mirage?" Zhang Kun was suddenly a little disappointed.

Woooooooo

At this moment, there was a whimper in the wind, like a ghost crying.
