Chapter 268: Soldiers are bound to Wu

The camel's stomach is divided into three chambers (lacking a valve stomach), the first stomach can store water, and the second stomach can store food and can ruminate; Docile temperament, feeds on rough grass and shrubs. The lifespan is about 30~50 years.

The fur of camels is very thick, and in winter it is very cold in desert areas, and the fur of camels is extremely beneficial for maintaining body temperature. The camel's thick fur reflects sunlight. Shaved camels sweat 50% more to avoid overheating, while their fur also helps to insulate them, and their long legs keep them away from hot ground.

There are two types of camels, those with 1 hump are called dromedary, and those with 2 humps are called Bactrian camels, with a body length of about 3 meters and a height of more than 2 meters, and the front and rear peaks are about 0.5 meters apart. The fluff is well developed, and there are also long hairs under the neck. The upper lip splits for easy feeding.

Camels have hair in their ears that block the entry of wind and sand; Camels have double eyelids and thick, long eyelashes that prevent wind and sand from getting into the eyes; The camel's nose is also free to close.

These "equipment" made the camel not at all afraid of wind and sand. The sand is soft and easy for people to fall into when they step on it, while the camel's feet are flat and have thick and soft meat pads under their feet, so that the camels can walk freely on the sand and will not fall into the sand. The camel is familiar with the desert climate, and when a strong wind blows, it will kneel, so travelers can prepare in advance.

Camels walk slowly, but can carry a lot of things. He is an important means of transportation in the desert, and people regard it as a ship to cross the desert sea, and has the reputation of "the ship of the desert".

Camels have traditionally been used as important camel animals. Although the Bactrian camel travels at a speed of only 3~5 kilometers per hour, it can carry heavy loads for a long time and can travel up to 50 kilometers per day. The dromedary has longer legs and can maintain a speed of 13 to 16 kilometers per hour for up to 18 hours when riding.

Camel riding is the main riding tool in desert and semi-desert areas, especially desert areas, and has also been widely used in desert surveys and other work. Although the camel is not good at running, its long legs, large and light stride, strong endurance, and the special structure of its hooves make it suitable for use as an important means of transportation in the desert.

Bactrian camels can reach speeds of up to 10~15 km/h when riding short distances, and 30~35 kilometers per day when riding long distances.

When transporting supplies in deserts, Gobi, hydrochloric acid lands, mountains and grasslands with deep snow, other means of transportation are often difficult to function, and camels are the most important pack animals in these areas, playing a role that is difficult to replace by other domestic animals and means of transportation. Therefore, it is also widely used for exploration, scientific investigation, transportation and other work in desert areas. Camels can still be transported despite the harsh climate and insufficient supply of water and grass.

When he was about to enter the desert, the eldest grandson Yuanhong replaced all the good horses around him with camels, and the speed of thousands of miles of good horses was unmatched, but the camel was the emperor in the desert.

Putting food and water on the camel's back, Angel handed over the water bladder and looked at her husband with some surprise, "You really surprised me!" ”

The eldest grandson Yuanhong was a little amused, and hung up the water bladder, "I am your husband, what has not been told to you, and what happened to surprise you?" ”

"For example, you will prepare your own luggage, or for example, you will harness your own horse...... Oh no, it's supposed to be a camel! Angel smiled differently, with a little ambiguity and flattery.

Wiping his hands and turning over the fence, Changsun Yuanhong made a beautiful and neat reversal, "You seem to be surprised!" ”

Angel nodded, "Very surprised, I always thought that you were a person who couldn't take care of yourself, although along the way, I saw you countless times, and wanted to control your temper and cultivation as an emperor, but in the end, I found that you really can't leave people by your side, otherwise what should you do?" ”

Lovingly attached the pale cheeks of the eldest grandson Yuanhong, this is not good in the north, the weather is always cloudy and sunny, the outside is a desert drought for days, and it is still sunny in the early morning in the city, and the temperature begins to drop sharply at night, and even carries a cold breath.

"I'm not as fragile as you think, it's just that these years ......" Changsun Yuanhong wanted to speak and stopped, some things didn't need to be said "A long time ago, when I was just a child, I once watched the lonely goose fly over the high wall, fleeting, I used to wonder, where are those things going?" And why go there? My childhood was behind that wall, and there were many things I couldn't do, even if I was the most honorable person in that wall. The queen mother's protection of me has exceeded that of a normal person, and I have hated her more than once for this, and it is ridiculous to think about it now. ”

"In order to satisfy your own desires, in order to make your life no longer depressing, you start studying desperately, learning some normal people would do, right?" Angel walks along a waterlogged road with her beloved.

"Yes, that was a beginning, I began to keep learning, longing for things beyond the walls, the library was my best friend, and then things slowly changed, I began to be confused and powerful, but the book is still my partner, I met the gentle Xiao Xiao for this, and you who are vital in my life."

A qiē suddenly went back to many years ago, when Angel had just entered the palace, at that time, everyone was careful not to let themselves make any mistakes.

"Do you know why I'm going to continue to talk to you?" Angel stood in front of the eldest grandson Yuanhong, dressed in a riding outfit, standing with the unprecedented heroism and pride of the queen of a country.

"I think you're worried." Eldest Sun Yuanhong turned his head and glanced behind him, "We will enter the desert in a short time, and the older generation has said that there are many countries on the other side of the desert. Our identity is only clan relatives, and there is no army by our side, and once our identity is recognized, there may be all kinds of trouble. Actually, you don't need to worry, we won't go too far, and before coming here, I promised you that there will be someone to protect us on the way. ”

"I don't doubt that, but ...... Our first stop in the desert was Wu Tie, and I ...... I...... No matter what you think, I don't really like it there! Angel was a little overwhelmed, with a little sparkle in her eyes, "Maybe it's because I'm too sensitive, but after many years, I still can't forget Jì, forget Jì, those two princesses." ”

The grievances between Haihona and Shu Shu disappeared in the City of Glass, and when they died, Angel didn't dare to marry the last face, but the pain increased day by day, and Angel knew very well that there was definitely more than one tragedy in Wu's bondage.
