At this time, the four Holy Hand Butchers were nervously busy in the tent.

They know that they are now stuck in the neck, and only by agreeing to the exchange conditions can they get the precious map information and finally realize their wishes.

Besides, they also knew what they wanted, and they were originally worried that they would be taken to Bansheng City by Zhang Whale, but later found out that there was a topographic map sandwiched between the two Song edition books, and the vermilion fork was the location of the tomb.

Touching Jin Xiaowei and others already know the approximate location of the tomb, what is missing is this positioning, if there is no positioning, digging in the endless desert, they are digging for two lifetimes, I am afraid they will not see the shadow of the tomb.

Besides, when I saw that map, I couldn't help but feel a little guilty about the Jade Princess, this is the ancestor of the Jade Princess, the Jade Princess has feelings for herself, and now she is also her most determined ally, but she wants to join forces with others to dig the tomb of his ancestor, which is indeed a bit unauthentic.

However, thinking of Emperor Yingzong, he was justified again, thinking about the sins committed by the Warat tribe against the Han people back then, even if he even dug the tombs of his eighteenth generation ancestors.

Besides, this is also self-comforting, but I have finally found a balance in my heart. People are like this sometimes, when their hearts are balanced, they don't think about the past.

Besides, a tent was set up for these four people, and then they were asked to prepare all the work that should be prepared, especially the things necessary to dig the tunnel, which had to be prepared and stopped along the way.

For those who are good at tomb robbing, digging a tunnel is too easy, but Captain Jin doesn't dare to be careless, after all, they are digging a tunnel that leads directly to the big tent of the king of Altan, and the difficulty and danger factor have increased more than 10,000 times.

The four of them sat at a table, Du San and Du Si were just squandering the good wine that had been supplied, eating a large plate of dried meat, and neither of them asked what to do, just waiting for the Holy Hand Butcher and the Captain of the Golden Touch to give an order.

The planning of this mission is basically the work of Captain Jin, the Holy Hand Butcher helps the staff officer, and at the same time checks whether there are any omissions or negligence in Captain Jin, and the two have cooperated for many years and have a very tacit understanding. If Captain Touching Gold is absent, the Holy Hand Butcher can completely plan and complete the tomb robbery task alone.

Moreover, the rule set for them is that from now on, they cannot appear in public view, they can only live in this tent, there is enough wine, enough meat, whatever they need, just talk to the guards outside the door. Their outfits have been changed into the costumes of the guards, and they have completely changed their appearance.

Besides, there are still dozens of Jianghu characters in the camp who are not leaving, and they don't know what these people want to do, they have asked the Holy Hand Butcher, and they don't know, most of these Jianghu characters are lone rangers, and they obviously lack communication with each other, probably because they don't think it's necessary.

Of course, there may also be a lot of shadows set up by King Qin, mixed in to protect it, but I don't know which one is and which one is not, and I don't bother to ask.

There is also a possibility that I have also thought about it, is there any spy of Jinyiwei in this?

He knew that Jinyiwei had some spies outside the fortress, but he couldn't get this list, and Liu Shouyou from Jinyiwei's headquarters told him that when he needed these people, these people would automatically appear and accept his orders.

Besides, as soon as he thought of Liu Shou's words, he scolded in private: When does he need these people? What kind of human words are this, he needs it all the time, but where are these bastards?

He originally wanted to get the top-secret documents of King Alta's attack on the autumn offensive of the Ming Dynasty through the idea of the Jinyiwei system outside the Saiwai, but unfortunately he didn't know where the Jinyiwei system outside the Saiwai was, how to find them, and no one knew.

Later, he pinned his hopes on Jun, hoping to steal King Alta's documents with his empty hands, but Jun also disappeared, and he didn't know what happened to him or where he was now.

Whether it is the will of the imperial court or Zhang Juzheng's many letters, he has been instructed to ask him to get this information, but how to do it, it is impossible to get it as an ambassador with full powers, no matter where he appears, there will be a bunch of people surrounding him, and he can't walk into the Chinese army tent of the king of Alta in a grand manner, and then ask to see the arrangements he has made for the offensive of the Ming Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, there was no endless road, and just when there was no crack in his worried mind, the Holy Hand Butcher and the Captain of the Touching Gold took the initiative to send them to the door. Perhaps this is the way of heaven and earth, and besides, it is decided to steal the top-secret documents of the king of Altan through these four people.

For the tomb of the Great Khan of Warat, and he is not very interested in the heavenly treasures that may be inside, he is most tempted by the location of the tomb and the space inside, he is ready to do a big job on this tomb, this plan is only a prototype in his mind at present, and it has not yet been completely matured, mainly because whether this tomb exists or not, it is impossible to determine for a while.

Besides, although I believe that with the level of Captain Jin, there will not be a big joke in the end, but who can say for sure this kind of thing, the tomb of the Great Khan outside the fortress is definitely a secret among secrets, even if their descendants may not know, how can outsiders be accurate.

This matter has to be done secretly, and it must not be known to any outsider, if it is known, a Ming brocade guard commands a group of brocade guards to lead a group of brocade guards to rob the tomb, and the face of the court will have to be lost, and the emperor must kill him.

I don't know what equipment is needed to rob the tomb, although he wants to cross the border, he doesn't want to go too far. But pickaxes and shovels must be indispensable, and the legendary Luoyang shovel has not yet been made, so they can only use the shovels they carry. In addition, there is a large number of planks and wood, and the excavated pit must be supported with planks and wood, otherwise it will not be fun to dig halfway to a collapse.

Wood planks are very common in the mainland, but they are not easy to find in the desert, mainly because there are relatively few large mountain forests outside the Saiwai, pastures are everywhere, and mountain forests are relatively rare.

According to the research of later generations, the reason why the smelting technology outside the Saiwai has regressed greatly is that the mountain and forest resources are insufficient, and there is not enough high-quality charcoal, and as a result, the temperature cannot meet the standard when smelting iron, and it is impossible to turn scrap iron into molten iron and recast it into weapons.

Of course, this is just a statement, and according to the research, it should be the loss of a large number of skilled workers in smelting technology and the loss of smelting technology, which has caused the decline of foreign weapon manufacturing technology.

In the era of Genghis Khan and Kublai Khan, the smelting technology outside the Saiwai was much higher than that of the mainland, and the Huihui cannon, that is, the red-coated cannon, was the weapon first created by Genghis Khan, and it was also an invincible artifact when he led the Mongols to the west.

Genghis Khan's conquest of all countries did not only rely on the skilled horsemanship and excellent archery skills of the Mongol soldiers, nor only on the courage and skill of the Mongol iron cavalry, but also the use of a large number of firearms. At that time, there was a man who was good at making artillery, and he made an exception and was named a prince. Genghis Khan was the best at using the talents of technical talents, which was much more clever than the mainland regime at the time.

Besides, when they walked in, they watched the four of them doing their own thing, not interfering with each other, the Du brothers drank wine and ate meat, and the Holy Hand Butcher and the Captain Touching Jin were sitting at the desk drawing drawings.

"I've seen adults." When the four men saw him come in, they all stood up and saluted.

Now that they are wearing the uniforms of the Jinyiwei, they naturally have to follow the rules of the Jinyiwei, and they can no longer call themselves idlers in the mountains, not to mention that they are not hermit idlers at all, but notorious butchers and tomb robbers.

"How's the preparation?" Besides, after sitting down, he asked, Murong Yanran and Jiu Niang were standing on his left and right, for these four people, it was impossible to be completely at ease, and it was still necessary to guard against it.

"It's all kinds of materials and tools that are needed." Captain Jin handed over a slip.

Besides, he glanced at the dense list listed on it and had a little headache, and threw it to Ji Chang who was following him, and said, "You send someone to prepare these things along the way, just say that they are necessities in the army, and you must prepare all the things on it before you arrive at Bansheng City." ”

Ji Chang agreed, took it and stuffed it into the boot shaft.

"What is the longest pit you can dig?" Besides, he asked.

"It's hard to say, we usually dig tombs from a few miles away, and the longest is only twenty miles." Touching the golden lieutenant said.

"Twenty miles."

Besides, he groaned, it is said that this distance is enough, and he doesn't know how far away he can set up camp from the Chinese army tent of the king of Altan after arriving at Bansheng City, but he estimates that the king of Altan will not rest assured that his men and horses will camp far away, and will definitely arrange it in a very close place for easy monitoring.

He had 10,000 men with him, and the king of Alta would not be careless enough to let these men out of his surveillance and move freely everywhere.

However, there was still a certain distance between the military camp of the king of Altan and his Chinese tent, and the most difficult thing to determine now was how far this distance would be.

But he also knew that if the distance was too far, he could only give up this plan, not because he couldn't trust Captain Jin's ability to dig tunnels, but because he didn't have time to do it. Digging a tunnel is a time-consuming and laborious task, and it is not a matter of running horses on flat ground, but a distance of dozens of miles.

"If it's twenty miles of land, how many days will it take you to dig through?" And then he asked.

"If the time given by the adults is short, it is not enough to rely on the four of us alone, and we need to be given a certain amount of manpower." Touching the golden lieutenant said.

"It's no problem with manpower, you need as much as you need. But I need to dig it in three days. ”

"In three days?" Captain Touching Jin smiled bitterly.

The time is too short, it's not a matter of how many people there are, in the narrow tunnel, no matter how many people there are, it's actually useless, changing shifts to dig is a matter of a dozen people, and more is in the way.

But three days to dig 20 miles of tunnels is really a bit embarrassing.

"It may be the shortest amount of time, and it may give you more time then, but you can't count on that." Besides.
