Chapter 10 Return to the East

At four o'clock in the morning, Zhang Wuji said goodbye to Yang Xiao, Peng Yingyu and others, and led the team to embark on the road back to the east. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yang Xiao led the four gates of heaven and earth, wind and thunder, to stay at the main altar and implement the strategy of the Holy Sect in the Western Regions. Peng Yingyu and Zhou Dian temporarily stayed at the general altar, and returned to the Central Plains after breaking through the realm to lead the development of the uprising. The Giant Wood Banner and the Flame Banner are temporarily at the Guangmingding headquarters, ready to implement reforms, and the main thing for the Giant Wood Banner is to find new ways to attack, in order to be able to promote it on a large scale or as a squad elite combat mode. The Flame Banner was stranded at the headquarters because Zhang Wuji had instructed them to dive into a new attack method, and Zhang Wuji had already given them a direction of development: further refining the cooking and spraying methods of fire oil and incendiary bombs.

Zhang Wuji did not arrange for everyone to disperse and walk to cover up his hiding as in the original book, but everyone was armed to the teeth, riding a war horse, and carrying a baggage horse. It was a team of 5,500 horses, and it was arrogant to anyone.

On the barren and populated Gobi Desert, such a horse team rushed at a uniform speed, and the shaking of the earth could be felt from afar, and the wolves, wild sheep, and wild horses on the Gobi Desert avoided early.

Since it was not a mission-based march, Zhang Wuji and the others cherished horsepower, so the speed of the march was not fast, and the riding skills of many Ming people were not good.

Especially the brothers of the Flood Banner and the Houtu Banner, this was originally a two-foot combat team, and the ordinary bannermen had never ridden horses at all, and captured a large number of war horses in a battle with the Mongols, and hurriedly trained for more than 20 days, and then they went on the road.

On that day, the march was only about 150 miles. In the evening, I found a random place to camp on the Gobi Desert.

Zhuang Zheng has the final say on all the matters of the camp, Zhang Wuji does not know how to pretend to understand the blind command, and others are also very convinced of Zhuang Zheng, in fact, Zhuang Zheng's military talent is the most significant among the five major flags of the Five Elements Banner.

Zhang Wuji stood on the edge of the area, watching his men set up camp. I can't wait for anyone to stand aside.

5,500 horses, more than 2,500 fully armed and sturdy men, how many years, how can Mingjiao have been so brilliant. But that's it, the unspeakable face is full of melancholy, and the Iron Crown Dao people and Leng Qian are all the same.

Zhang Wuji sensed the worries of the can't wait for others, and said: "Don't worry, tomorrow morning, you will leave by yourself, and on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, we will meet in Butterfly Valley." ”

I couldn't say anything: "Sect Master, your journey is too dangerous, this move is too dangerous, and your subordinates really can't let go of it." ”

Tie Guandao said: "Sect Master, whether to change the plan again, it's still too late, the Tartars can't be driven away in a day or two, and it's okay to plan slowly." ”

Leng Qian said: "Sect Master, danger, be careful." ”

Zhang Wuji laughed and said: "The sect leader's order has been issued, how can it be easily changed, don't worry, from now on, I, Zhang Wuji, am the target standing in the bright place, attracting the firepower of the Tartar court, you must hurry up to organize an uprising in Anhui and Jiangxi, the more ostentatious I am, the more the pressure on you can be lightened, this account can still be calculated, besides, I Zhang Wuji is not a person with a thin life, three rest assured." ”

He couldn't say anything: "In this case, the subordinates obey the order, and they will not say goodbye to the sect leader tomorrow." ”

Tie Guan Daodao: "Take care of the sect master, the great cause of the Holy Sect is inseparable from you." ”

Leng Qian said: "Sect Master, take care. ”

The sky is getting dark, Zhang Wuji looks at the sunset in the west, his pride and ambition are full of his heart, how many magnificent stories are waiting for him to interpret on the five thousand miles of east return, thinking about it, he feels that his blood is surging, and he must be filled with countless wonderful.

As the sun set, the golden-red light shone a layer of visible brilliance on Zhang Wuji's body, like a miracle, and everyone around looked at the sect leader who was caught in a ball of light, and the worry in his heart disappeared cleanly.

The tent has been set up, the camp has been built, Zhang Wuji walked towards the camp, the brothers set up a stove to make a fire to make food, and the resting soldiers did not go into the tent to rest, but took care of their horses. Everything is in good order.

Xiao Zhao and Zhou Zhiruo lived in a tent independently, and Zhang Wuji had set this rule before leaving.

The night passed in a hurry, and the next morning it was just dawn, and the Iron Crown Daoist and Leng Qian left the camp with their disciples.

Zhuang Zheng commanded the brigade to rise and continue to advance towards the east.

The time has entered May, every day on the Gobi Desert is almost the same, except that the barren is still barren, the sky is always blue, the sun is like a fireball spinning above everyone's heads, during the day, the temperature is already quite high, not much different from summer, but at night, it is back to the feeling of winter, the cold is pressing, the breath of exhalation is clearly visible, fortunately, the worst skills of this team can also be ranked in the second third rate on the rivers and lakes, and the preparation is sufficient, no harm.

After two more days, he had walked four hundred and fifty miles to the east, and he was very safe on the way, and he did not see a single figure of a man from the rivers and lakes, nor did he encounter a shadow of a Mongol.

Zhang Wuji didn't believe that his armed horse team of more than 2,000 people was swaggering on the Gobi Desert and couldn't attract the attention of the Mongols, Zhuang Zheng didn't believe it, and Ouyang Zhi didn't believe it. With such a huge target, it was difficult not to attract the attention of the Tartars, who were patiently preparing for the upcoming war, but three days passed, and nothing was seen on the way.

Zhuang Zheng consulted Zhang Wuji, and Zhang Wuji instructed him to continue to advance, even if the Mongols were waiting for them with big pockets in front, he would break through, which was originally the purpose of his march.

Moreover, most of the troops of the Tartar court are now transferred to the Central Plains to quell the rebellion, the troops in the Western Regions are not many, and the military commander of the Western Regions has been killed.

He didn't know that for the Mingjiao, a gang in the rivers and lakes, the Mongolian court was now in a mess, and the death of Mandu Latu and the annihilation of an elite army of 10,000 people gave the Mongolian court a great shock, which was the biggest loss since the Tatars conquered the Central Plains.

For the rivers and lakes, for the Ming Sect, and for this young sect, the Tartar court paid unprecedented attention to it.

After arguing for seven or eight days, there was finally a result, and this result fell on the king of Ruyang, Chahan Temur, who had already dispatched troops in the Central Plains, busy with counterinsurgency and firefighting, and handed over everything on the rivers and lakes to his son, and later handed over to his daughter.
