Chapter 21: A Lifeless Blizzard
Another breath of hot air exhaled from his mouth, Jiang Bei looked up at the sky, this day was even more vast than he imagined, and he couldn't find a trace of life in this snow-white sky.
But he still had to move forward, go to a place where he could see life, to find an opportunity.
Jiang Bei crawled in the snow on his knees for a while, he felt that his legs were already a little unconscious, and the traces he left on the snow did not take long to be covered by this snow, as if he had never been here, had never been to this world.
Is your path about to end here?
The breathing in Jiang Bei's mouth became heavier and heavier, and he seemed to feel that his vitality was slowly diffusing into this world with his breathing.
But he still has something to do, even if he falls completely, he needs to do it!
"Wow!"
Jiang Bei used his head to hold the cold snow, the fluffy snow was pressed hard by his head, and he used the strength of his spine to push his person to a high place.
He can't continue to climb like this, he can't climb to his destination, he has to get up.
He was like a twisted puppet, trying to make himself upright.
But he could only use his knees and head as fulcrums, supporting his back up, like a wild cat with an arched back.
"Bump!"
Jiangbei's skin has been frozen by the ice and snow and lost consciousness, and he has also lost his torso, he is now just following his subconscious to move, his attempt to get up again failed, and the whole person's body fell hard into the snow, making a muffled sound, but fortunately, there were no stones hidden in the surrounding snow, so he was not injured more.
"Whew!"
An inhuman howl began to come out of his throat, it was a completely subconscious vent, and he seemed to want to use this strength to prop himself up again, but what he did was to let his whole body roll in the snow like a stick.
He repeatedly crawled, arched, and fell in the snow.
Failed again and again, but did not give up, maybe he has become a machine, and will only repeat this action.
But maybe it was the protection of the heavens, I don't know where, he seemed to have found a stone on his side that could be supported by it, and he slowly stood up, step by step in the direction of his memory.
But even though his vision had become extremely blurry, he still didn't see anything other than white.
"Gangchon, Gangchon."
He muttered vaguely about his hometown, and muttered about taking out the small villages covered by this merciless wind and snow.
Like the walking dead, Jiangbei is moving forward on the empty snowfield, he doesn't know everything in this place, as if he has never been here, but his intuition tells him that for so many years, he has traveled countless times back and forth between the village and the county seat, and the breath of this road, he can deeply remember every part of his body, even if everything is not as good as memory, but his intuition will not deceive him, right?
Jiangbei walked alone, leaving a string of footprints on the snow.
Suddenly, he felt his unconscious ears and seemed to hear some sounds, something new that was different from all the sounds he had heard along the way.
It wasn't the sound of the wind, the sound of falling snow, the sound of one's own footsteps.
It's a voice full of life force.
He closed his eyes, and he found that his vision was only white anyway, and he searched for the voice by his already numb hearing, his limbs seemed to regain some vitality, and he swayed madly, his throat let out a hoarse roar, and he would surely seize this opportunity.
He felt a pair of warm arms suddenly support him, and he seemed to lose weight, and it seemed that his whole body was relaxed at this moment.
"Jiang... Village..."
Jiangbei's frozen lips opened and closed, and the thin ice formed on his mouth tore his lips and broke them together when he opened his mouth, but those lips had already been freeze-dried, and he didn't feel pain.
"What did you say?"
Vaguely, Jiang Bei clearly heard that this person who had saved his life was asking himself.
"Gangchon! Gangchon! Snow! Covered! There are still people in the village! ”
I don't know where the vitality came from, although Jiang Bei's voice was hoarse and weak, but he still coherently said the information that he had been engraved in his mind, this was his mission to get out of the snow-flooded village, and it was also his way to salvation.
"Okay, I'll go tell ......."
roughly knew that he had successfully found the rescuer, and in an instant, the belief that he had been stubborn in his mind was unraveled.
He can rest for a while.
Jiangbei lost consciousness, he didn't know if he could still open his eyes, but he had a knot in his heart, even if he just let go of the world, he would not regret it.
He didn't know that he was going to Jiangcun to inform the villagers to evacuate to the cavalry captain in the county.
Because Jiangcun is one of the villages farthest away from the county seat in the county, although it has not yet waited for the news from Jizhou, but after thinking about it again, the county commander personally went to the outside of the county seat to estimate the degree of the aggravation of the wind and snow, and immediately decided that the army went to the surrounding area of the county seat to bring all the people back to the county seat, the county seat of Youzhou is not as saturated as the Central Plains Continent, especially after so many years of war, there are many deserted places in the entire county, and it is still enough to accommodate all the people in the territory.
The villagers around the county town were successfully transferred, and for those villages that were far away, the cavalry captain set off with the cavalry lieutenants in the county town after confirming the situation and address on the roster with the county commander.
This county seat is not big, even just in a small corner in the north of Youzhou, the county commander itself is part-time the task of the county lieutenant, in addition to the county lieutenant, he is the only cavalry captain in this city, and in fact, in addition to the soldiers who want to appease the people, the cavalry that can be used is only a hundred, and they must hurry up to inform the villages.
But when they arrived in the northwest of the county, they already felt that some villages would not be able to survive the snowstorm this time.
Especially this time, he also brought a few guides who are familiar with the terrain of the county, this captain knows that among these remote villages, Jiangcun is the most dangerous, because Jiangcun is surrounded by mountains and rivers, if it is usually a feng shui treasure, but in this kind of snowy situation, it is not a good thing.
The river is frozen, and the top of the mountain is covered with snow, and if the snow falls more than the mountain can bear, the village is very likely to be submerged.
Now that he met a helper from Jiangbei, a Jiangcun on the road, he knew that his prediction had come true, which was not good news.
Big Snow Burial Village.
Great ominous.
"You two, take him back to the county, seek medical treatment immediately, if there is no way, send him to the county and Jizhou, and he must be saved."
The lieutenant calmed down and quickly made arrangements.
"The other two teams, you go to Baicun and Fuyuan to inform the news, and assist them in moving, everyone else, continue to move forward with me, target Jiangcun, and prepare for rescue."
He took a deep breath, looking at the vast sea of white snow in front of him, and it was not an easy task to enter the mountain range to find traces of Jiangcun.
The stakes are high.
However, he was a man who came out of the brave army.
Killed Xianbei, slaughtered the Huns, went to Taihang Academy to study, fought with the princes of the world, participated in the extermination of Yuan Shao, and when he was promoted by military merit, he chose to release the border as a captain, he was the pride of his family and an example for his brothers.
He fought with the glory of the lord's lineage, how could he lose to this little wind and snow?
Although he didn't understand government affairs, he didn't know what to do when the people arrived in the county, and he didn't know how many people he could save in this way.
But he knew that the lord had said that in his own land, every person, every people, was his own people, his own brothers and sisters, and with their support, he and the other warriors could gallop forward and fight with confidence.
"Let's go!"
At the sound of the order, he knew that he had a lot to do, and he tried his best to recall all the knowledge he had received in the army and in the academy, looking for any knowledge that could come in handy in the next rescue.
He will definitely not let his partner down, nor will he do worse than him, everyone has studied from Taihang Academy, although he is a county commander and his boss, but he may not lose to him.
In the wind and snow, dozens of figures galloped on the snowfield, leaving messy hoof prints on the snow, which were submerged by the wind and snow and returned to leveling.
