Under the strong midday sun, there was no wind on the desolate Gobi Desert, except for the occasional tufts of wild grass hanging lazily on the ground, and there was no living creature to be seen everywhere.

Lin Yuan was riding a black rabbit horse and was walking on this steaming land, and the black rabbit horse's hard hooves stepped on the cracked earth, making a gurgling sound.

"Goo~~"

A strange voice came from behind Lin Yuan, he turned his head to look, it was Hou Yi, Hou Yi was riding a brown and chestnut wild horse under his crotch, he said with an embarrassed face:

"King Yan...... Oops, I've been sick to my stomach for the past few days......"

Lin Yuan nodded and said with a smile:

"It's okay, everyone is the same, after eating stinky jerky for several days in a row, everyone's stomach is not very comfortable......" After speaking, Lin Yuan took out a small piece of black branch from his arms, threw it to Hou Yi, and said:

"Here you go! This is what Fu Xi taught me before, the root of Coptis chinensis, I found it in the mountains of Jiu Yao's hometown before, and I have always carried it with me, you chew it in your mouth and then swallow it, it should be able to help somewhat, oh yes, it may be a little bitter. ”

Hou Yi nodded gratefully, crying that he was not afraid, afraid that his diarrhea would ruin the important task of the migration of the entire cavalry regiment.

Since the whole Sabah clan has been going south for more than half a month under the leadership of the soul messenger, in these ten days, Lin Yuan has been leading the more than 40 elites of the Sabah tribe he selected, at the bottom of the empty Sabah Cave Valley, eating and living with the group of wild horses, they each chose a wild horse, and then were responsible for feeding, walking, and bathing the wild horses every day, and gradually, they finally won the acceptance of the wild horses and could ride on the back of the horse without hindrance.

Then Lin Yuan taught everyone step by step, how to use the rope to control the direction of the horse's head, how to use the strength of the legs to control the speed of the horse's running, after everyone was basically proficient in riding, he arranged for someone to specially make a long and large giant stone spear, the length of which was almost more than double the length of the stone spear they used when fighting on foot.

In the end, Lin Yuan learned about the charging attack and grappling skills of their cavalry, and by the way, he also handed them some preliminary knowledge of formations, although his King Yan said that this was just the surface of the real war, but it was enough for him and those Sabah people to be stunned, and it took a lot of time to finally learn.

When everything was ready, Lin Yuan gave the order, and took the last remaining 40 or so riders of the Saba tribe, riding all the wild horses, to quickly evacuate the Sabah Cave and evacuate the Loess Plateau, and they followed the traces left by the soul messenger all the way south to chase the migration troops of their own tribe.

"God, yesterday Oza said that we will soon catch up with the tribe, and he seems to have determined it by looking at the placement of the pile of stones left by the soul messenger...... So, does that mean we finally don't have to rush anymore? Ah...... I'm going to die of exhaustion. Jiu Yao said lazily while stretching her waist.

Lin Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said:

"It's hard to say...... The stones left by the soul messenger can only indicate that they left here a few days ago, but it does not mean that they have found a suitable place to live, you know, this Gobi Desert, God knows when it will come to an end, maybe, their situation may not be as good as ours......"

"My lord, I don't think that's necessarily ......," he gasped, and came up from behind, riding a wild horse that had always been dark brown, with a wisp of white hair on his head, and a flag on his broad back, on which was a piece of linen dyed with red wolfberry juice.

That was Lin Yuan's own flag, he got inspiration from the Huang flag, although in this primitive period, there was no concept of flag marks among tribes, but he should also try to use some kind of symbol, as a morale boost when fighting, he even believed that he and the Huang tribe may be the first tribal leader in Chinese history to use a flag.

In order to take care of the primitive people's ability to understand complex figures, and at the same time limited by the conditions at the time, Lin Yuan had to use local materials, he did not involve any complex figures, but only referred to the yellow flag of the Huang people, he ate the fruit of the common wolfberry tree near the Sabah tribe as a pigment, and then mashed the fruit, and then took its juice and applied it to Jiu Yao's linen coat.

In the end, Lin Yuan carefully cut it into a square shape with a bone blade, and then tied it to a wooden pole, so that a brand new flag was ready.

"The red flag represents strength, this is the flag of the Sabah people who advocate force! At the same time, red is also the eye of flame, he represents the belief of the god of fire, which is also the banner of the Yan clan! ”

Lin Yuan said this to his subordinates, he still remembered that when the banner was just ready, the sacred expression when the banner was just completed, perhaps, for him, the glory and responsibility that this banner brought him were far higher than some ethereal oaths.

After that, he tied the flag behind his back and took it wherever he went, and then he often explained to his subordinates:

"The king said, the clan flag is the soul of our Sabah clan, and the clan flag must not fall! As long as the clan flag is there, our victory is there! ”

Lin Yuan was very satisfied with the effect of this flag, and now, he looked at the flag behind the canature, showed a satisfied smile again, and said:

"How's the situation in the rear of the troops?"

"Back to the king! I just finished the inspection, 46, all of our cavalry regiment members are quite a few, except for two diarrheal bodies are a little weak, everyone is in good shape, oh yes! Previously, our spies reported that in the place where we camped last night, they found the shadow of the Huang clan, but it seems that it is not their main force, but the surrounding feudal barbarians. You can rest assured that they will never be able to catch up with their two legs......"

"Hmph, even if they catch up, we're not afraid!" Lin Yuan replied in a loud voice, "Oh yes, Worm, what did you just say?" What do you think is not necessarily? ”

He tapped his head with his hand and hurriedly replied:

"Oh! Yes, yes, yes, look at my brain, what I just meant was that the soul messengers may not be worse than us, haha, that old man, let me tell you, he was a thief, although there were many of them, but they also took almost all the supplies, dried meat, dried cakes, dried wild fruits, animal skins, everything, definitely more than we brought, we are just in a hurry, so there are definitely not as many things as they bring......"

Lin Yuan smiled, then looked at the canaper and said:

"Haha, that's it, I understand, it's okay, after we catch up with them in a few days, we will definitely let you eat enough! Ha ha...... By the way, how many days do you think we'll be able to catch up? ”

"Well, my lord, 3 days at most...... Estimate...... Hey?? What do you think is that, my lord? ”

Suddenly, he lifted himself from his mount, and he reached out and pointed to the haze in the distance......

Lin Yuan hurriedly pulled the reins and stopped with everyone, Lin Yuan followed the fingers of the worm and looked over, indeed in the southwest, after a haze, a touch of green appeared in the appointment.

Green? Oasis? Or a mirage?

Lin Yuan frowned, it is said that on this arid Gobi Desert, it is impossible to have such a green scenery, if it is not an oasis, then it is very likely to be a legendary mirage......

"Wow!! Wow! Look, everyone! ”

Hou Yi also shouted, he had already carefully stood on the back of the wild horse, frowning and looking in that direction, Lin Yuan also stretched his neck, frowned, and looked at it for a long time, and suddenly he knew what Hou Yi was shouting......

It was an eerie sight......

In the middle of a green oasis, surrounded by a field of plants, a silvery lake appeared in the middle of the oasis, and around the lake, there was a circle of white traces......

On the Gobi Desert, the presence of water means that there is life! There is life! It means that there is fresh prey!

"King! Let's get over there! I can't wait......" asked Raza anxiously.

"Hmm......" Lin Yuan looked at the deflated animal skin water bag on his waist and said:

"Okay, be careful, everyone, follow me! Let's go see that oasis! (To be continued.) )
