Chapter Eighty-Four: Found It!

Murong Qing's departure didn't bring much sadness to the people here, I'm afraid that Lan Xue was just a little sentimental. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After all, there was still a lot of work to be done, first to break all the stone walls of the cave, and then to their surprise, this underground water was actually drinkable water, which was simply a good thing for them.

Secondly, the effect of pushing snow on the dark snow is not small in Lan Xue, although the progress is very slow every day, after all, it is dark and cold there, and it is difficult for ordinary people to reduce their holdings of more than one stick of incense in that situation, so every day is busy with a stick of incense, and it is necessary to rest for half an hour below to ease up.

In this way, more than sixty people took turns, and it took half a day to launch a range of a few zhang in size, and it was strange to say that those snows were really not ordinary weird. If they just push the snow by brute force, the snow will only get bigger and bigger, and it will be even more difficult to push when it gets bigger, because the snow is sticky, and it seems to stick together piece by piece, so they have to pile the snow into a fixed position one at a time.

In this way, it is time-consuming and laborious, and the work is naturally slow. Of course, even so, they still push snow all the time.

And after two days, there was still a good effect, at least within a dozen feet of snow they had made, a torch could burn nearly a stick of incense. That's already good for them.

Because at the beginning, not to mention a stick of incense, as long as the torch is lit, it will be extinguished in a few moments.

Then I tried again after having a range, but it still couldn't, and the longest one after lighting it was only extinguished in less than a cup of tea.

Therefore, Lan Xue also knew that the larger the scope of the clearing, the greater the burning time of the flames, because the surrounding snow was too strong for heat absorption.

And when Lan Xue was pushing the snow every day, the three guard generals in the camp also took their own soldiers to train in a hurry to prevent the barbarians from attacking at any time.

Time passed in a hurry, and half a month had passed in a blink of an eye.

In the past half a month, the barbarians did not have any intention of attacking, and the soldiers who came to report also said that the barbarians did not seem to want to attack yet, which made several generals very puzzled.

Obviously they have already gathered so many barbarians, why don't they attack yet? Are there still barbarians coming? Thinking of this, they were also very uneasy, after all, now that the number of people on both sides is equal, if the other party has another person, then this battle will be really dangerous for them!

"How's the tension over there, Brother Lan?" Zheng Chengsheng looked at Han Shengshu and asked.

Han Shengshu said: "I went there yesterday, Brother Lan has made great progress, dozens of miles of roads are already open land, now you can stick the torch on the ground and hold on for half an hour without extinguishing it." ”

"That..."Zheng Chengsheng frowned and said, "Can you see the barbarian camp?" "No matter how much progress there is, even if the torches can hold on for an hour, if you can't see the camp of the barbarians, it will be in vain.

Hearing this, Han Shengshu was silent for a moment before saying, "I think it should be soon." ”

"Hey!" Zheng Chengchang let out a long sigh and said, "It's almost over, I've heard General Han say this more than ten times, but... Ay! Maybe Brother Lan shouldn't have insisted so much in the first place, but now it's been half a month, but there is still no movement at all! I don't know what the situation is on the barbarian's side. And so on..."

Zheng Chengsheng didn't say the latter words, but Han Shengshu also knew that if it went on like this, the situation would not be good! There's a good chance they'll lose this battle! But even so, he still preferred to choose to believe in Lan Xue, so he listened to him: "General Zheng, I believe in Brother Lan, I believe that he will definitely be able to do it, let's be patient and wait!" ”

Zheng Chengsheng looked at him for a moment, then slapped his thigh, and said abruptly: "That's it!" That's it! Now that things have come to this point, we can only wait for the good news from Brother Blue! ”

……

It should have been dark as far as the eye could see, but now, a dozen torches were planted in a wide open space, which illuminated the place much brighter.

Snow was piled up half a man's height on all sides of the clearing, and the clearing spread for dozens of miles.

And at this moment, a torch was lit, and suddenly, as the torch was lit, there was gradually a light around the body, and suddenly, a person suddenly pointed to the left side of the crowd and shouted: "General Blue, General Blue!" Look! There... There seems to be a light there! ”

Lan Xue was pushing the snow, and when she heard this, she suddenly straightened up, hurriedly walked in front of the man, and then looked in the direction of his finger.

Really! Just a few miles away from everyone, there were patches of firelight, what was it that wasn't the barbarian's camp?

"But, General, how did you come so far? And so biased? Sun Peng also looked in that direction, and then said with a puzzled expression.

Lan Xue also shook her head with a wry smile and said, "I don't know why this is happening, but haven't we found it now?" Good over there! As long as we continue to push the snow all the way in this direction, I believe it will be in a few days! Let's do it, everyone! ”

"Good!" Everyone shouted excitedly, and they would be more motivated when they saw the goal.

Seeing that all the brothers were very excited, Lan Xue also laughed, so many days of hard work were finally not in vain, otherwise when the barbarians and soldiers started the war, they hadn't found the barbarians' camp yet, then they really wanted to cry without tears!

Thinking of this, Lan Xue pulled Sun Peng aside and said, "It's up to you to inform General Han and General Zheng of this news!" And you tell them that if you give us another three days, they can push them to the barbarians' territory! ”

"Yes!" Sun Peng responded excitedly, then turned around and ran away!

Lan Xue looked at Sun Peng's excited appearance, and couldn't help but be secretly happy in her heart, it seems that this battle is finally about to start!

……

In General Zheng's big tent, General Sanwei was discussing something, when suddenly a soldier ran in and said loudly: "Report to General Sanwei, General Lan's soldiers have come to report the news!" ”

"What?" The three guard generals stood up in unison, glanced at each other, and seemed to have thought of something, so they heard Zheng Chengsheng say excitedly: "Quick! Let him in! ”

Sun Peng walked into the big tent, and before he could salute, he heard Han Shengshu say: "Say it directly!" ”

"Yes!" Sun Peng nodded, and then said, "Report to General Sanwei, we have found the territory of the barbarians!" ”

"Found it? Good! That's great! So you guys... How long will it take? Five days is enough? Zheng Chengsheng said hurriedly.

Sun Peng shook his head and said, "My general said that it will only take three days!" ”
