Chapter 641: The Problem *4 (22:38)

"In this way, Mr. Shi agreed to hand these two letters to Lord Xiao?"

Zhang Xiaojie happily asked Shi Shikai.

Shi Shikai nodded, and said to Zhang Xiaojie and Xiao Tianzuo: "I really don't know the whereabouts of my family, but these two letters can be sent to my family's hands, you two can rest assured!" ”

After getting Shi Shikai's assurance, Zhang Xiaojie and Xiao Tianzuo left the inn satisfied.

On the way back, Xiao Tianzuo and Zhang Xiaojie discussed the details of the future preparations, and then Xiao Tianzuo returned to his home and sent people to Liaodong.

In mid-August, Zhang Yuanzhi's 600,000-strong army came directly to Yanmen Pass to call for battle, Li Zhun could not hold out, and the Liao army did not rush to attack the city, but set up camp 30 miles outside Yanmen Pass.

Xiao Mo has been missing, which is what Zhang Yuanzhi is very worried about, so he has to wait.

He had to wait for Xiao Mo to appear again, of course...... The Liao army also has to make some offensive postures, otherwise the Western Xia side will definitely be dissatisfied with the Liao State!

Where is Xiao Mo now?

No one knows, but Zhao Guanying does.

Zhao Guanying's subordinates have always been in contact with Xiao Mo, and when the Liao army invaded Yanmen Pass, Zhao Guanying received news from the Liao State.

Of course, the news was brought to Zhao Guanying by Shi Shikai, and after receiving the news, Zhao Guanying, Ma Yidao and Gao Yuanyi discussed it, and then Zhao Guanying decided to personally send these two very important letters to Xiao Mo's hands.

So Zhao Guanying packed up and brought a few people with good skills to ask Li Zhun for his resignation.

Li Zhun naturally agreed, and Zhao Guanying took people out of the Xinzhou camp, but was stopped halfway.

Zhao Guanying fixed his eyes and saw that the person was Liang Zheng, so he asked with a smile: "What is Grandpa Guo doing when he stops him?" ”

Liang Zheng said dissatisfiedly: "How can there be such a master? Half of the apprentices were gone, so I'm going to follow you too! ”

Zhao Guanying said: "I'm not your master, it's useless for Grandpa Guo to follow him!" ”

Liang Zheng smiled and said, "Hugh wants to tell me, I have heard what you and Master Li said, if you want to find my master, you must take me!" ”

Zhao Guanying was helpless, so she had to ask someone to repay Li Zhun.

Li Zhun said: "Grandpa Guo went to find Ziheng again, so he could go!" ”

In fact, Li Zhun wished that Liang Zheng would go to Xiao Mo, because Liang Zheng is still young, but his identity is very special to An Chao, first of all, he is the identity of the grandfather of the country, and secondly, he is one of the only two descendants of An Chao's generals.

The generals of the An Dynasty, now there are Liang Zheng and Yang Zongbao of Tianbo Mansion left, Yang Zongbao is still a baby, and his future will take a long, long time to grow!

Therefore, Liang Zheng can be said to be the only hope for An Chao Jiangmen now, and to bring such a hope for the future with him, to be honest, Li Zhun is a little worried.

Because Li Zhun himself knows that his own understanding of military affairs is limited, he can't teach Liang Zheng anything! The Liao army attacked, Li Zhun could only defend to the death, the tactics were the same, Liang Zheng followed Li Zhun's side, not only could not learn good things, but it may hit Liang Zheng's confidence, so that the future hope of this Jiangmen will be chilled by the war.

So Li Zhuncai said that Liang Zheng would go.

Zhao Guanying had no choice but to take Liang Zheng on the road, and they kept exchanging mounts at the post station all the way, in order to keep catching up with Xiao Mo's army.

Xiao Mo's army had now left Xining and had arrived on the southern shore of Qinghai, where they were resting in the deserted Gobi.

Xiao Mo looked at the map and was stunned, because the army had marched for more than ten days, and after leaving Xining, many problems had gradually emerged.

First of all, the consumption of supplies, dry food, and fresh water greatly surprised Xiao Mo.

"Summer March, how did I neglect this?"

Xiao Mo blamed himself, because it was summer, and the weather was very hot, even though the army was lightly armed, everyone had prepared enough dry food for a month, and the grain bags and water bags were full and hung on the horses' buttocks, but ......

The consumption of fresh water is too serious, even if Xiao Mo strictly stipulates it, but the soldiers still can't withstand the scorching sun and have to drink a few more sips of water!

There was no way, Xiao Mo had to march at night instead, taking advantage of the cool weather at night to go as far as he could, and camped in the mountains or shades during the day to rest.

At the same time, Xiao Mo did not forget to send spies to look for water sources around, there was water in Qinghai Lake, but it was salt water and could not be drunk.

Xiao Mo reluctantly adopted the method of marching at night, although this solved the problem of heat, it was not a long-term solution.

Because the itinerary of the army has been messed up by the night march, although Xiao Mo brought a magnetic rod so that he would not get lost at night, but ......

Be careful when marching at night, so that the speed of the march is not guaranteed.

Xiao Mo and Chong Shiheng agreed to attack Xingqing Mansion in mid-September, and there are still more than 20 days before now, and in these 20 days, Xiao Mo's army will pass through the Gobi and enter the Kunlun Mountains under extremely difficult circumstances, and then bypass Li Yuan's eyes and ears in Xuanhua Mansion and enter Suzhou from the Huangtou Uighurs!

The envoy of the yellow-headed Uighurs was also in Xiao Mo's army, and he was very familiar with both the Gobi and Kunlun Mountains, so he was also a guide to the army.

The spies returned, but they did not find a water source, and then Xiao Mo had no choice but to find the envoy of the yellow-headed Uighurs and asked, "Is there a way to get water from the Gobi?" ”

"Take water from above the Gobi?" The yellow-headed Uighur envoy shook his head and said, "The foreign minister has never heard of water that can be conjured out of thin air on the Gobi......

The yellow-headed Uighur envoy had no choice, so Xiao Mo pondered.

The army continued to advance, and seeing that there were fewer and fewer people in the bag, the army became a little restless.

He found Xiao Mo and said, "General, everyone is bringing less and less water, I don't know how long it will take for this Gobi to go out, how can this be good?" ”

Xiao Mo said: "There must be a road in front of the road mountain, we continue to send people to find a water source, and at the same time go all the way to the west, there must be a water source in Kunlun Mountain!" ”

He was worried, but according to Xiao Mo's order, he first stabilized the soldiers' morale, and then sent people to continue to search for water.

This situation lasted for three or four days, and the water source was not found, and gradually the soldiers began to turn from disappointment to despair, because the water they were carrying was almost exhausted, and now everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Mo's body.

They only have hope now that this young man who brought them into the Gobi, this world-famous handsome, can find them a way out where they can live!
