In March of the 11th year of Jian'an, Cao Chang and Tian Yu led the troops to leave the mound and go to Liaoxi County, and Yan Rou's cavalry was also assembled, and only waited for Cao Pi to give an order to leave the mound and go north out of the Beiwang Court of the Joseon Dynasty.

Because this was the first year that Jia Ji had planted hybrid wheat, Cao Pi was not at ease, and he still had to give instructions from the side, so he had to wait until the sowing was completed before setting off, which caused Cao Pi to not be able to set off in March. However, it is not without benefits to set off later, the climate in Youzhou is relatively cold, and the later you set off into the desert will not face too bad weather, although Cao Pi has been prepared enough, but it is always good to be able to relax.

This time to the Xianbei Royal Court, in addition to Yan Rou, Cao Pi also brought Cao Zhen, Su Qi, and Lu Lingqi. Lu Lingqi didn't say anything about going out this time, but just made a request, let Xin Xianying live in Cao Pi's state pastor's mansion, Cao Pi was still a little embarrassed, after all, Xin Xianying was also fourteen or fifteen years old, so it was a bit awkward to live in her own mansion rashly, but Lu Lingqi didn't give up on this matter, and personally visited Zhen's and asked Zhen to help, I don't know what the two said, after Lu Lingqi's visit, Zhen said that she could take care of Xin Xianying, and he was alone in the house, and Shu'er didn't like to talk much, She is also relatively lonely, speaking of which, Xin Bi and his father are also old friends, Xin Xianying, a little girl he has seen, is an acquaintance, just to accompany her to pass the time.

Zhen said this, Cao Pi naturally agreed, as for the affairs of Youzhou, Cao Pi handed over to Tian Chou and Gao Shun to jointly manage, Tian Chou was in charge of political affairs, and Gao Shun was in charge of the military. As for Sima Yi and Cao Pi who also built him before leaving, it was not that he had anything to say, but he just feasted with him and invited the trusted classics to engage in it, Guan Ning. This Guan Ning also has a great reputation in Youzhou, originally a native of Beihai, Qingzhou, who took refuge in Liaodong County because of the war, and only talked about scriptures and did not ask about world affairs.

Speaking of which, this person is still an old acquaintance with the current Shangshutai Shangshu Huaxin. I don't know how Sima Yi invited this person, but Cao Pi has always only looked at the results and didn't ask about the process, so he didn't ask Sima Yi for details, after all, the current Cao Pi is also a daily manager, and he can't be busy if he asks everything.

After all, Guan Ning is famous, and Cao Pi still has to give this person a banquet after all, firstly, to show his love for talent, and secondly, to give Sima Yi a face. The three of them didn't say much after the banquet, more polite, Guan Ning is good at talking about the "Book of Songs" and "Book of Books". He is very good at the education work such as rituals, rectification of prestige, and Chen Ming etiquette, and he is the best candidate for classics.

After seeing Sima Yi, Cao Pi led his troops out of the mound and went out of the pass. This time out of the customs with 700 cavalry and 2,100 war horses, not only need to transfer, but also need these war horses to carry food and water, although Yan Rou repeatedly stressed that he knows where there is a water source outside the pass, but Cao Pi believes that the dark river and river diversion in the desert are more serious, and it is always good to bring more water.

The first stop out of the customs is the city outside the Guanchi Junmi, which was abandoned by Youbeiping, this city was looted by Zhang Nan and Cao Xiu after being uninhabited, only the dilapidated city walls and leaky houses remained, everyone stayed here for a night and then continued to set off, heading to the Xianbei royal court.

According to Yan Rou, the Xianbei royal court is deep in the Hunshandak sand, on the ancient Xilin Gol grassland. Cao Pi knew that it should be the west of the Great Khing'an Mountains, separated from the Songnen Plain by a Great Khing'an Mountains. Now the Hunshandak sandy land is more than the pasture of later generations, but the weather is still very bad, since entering the desert, Cao Pi has felt the wind and sand like a knife and a very exaggerated temperature difference between day and night, and now he finally understands why Guo Jia died in the north, maybe it is that he can't stand this bad weather when he goes out in the army, after all, Guo Jia's small body, not only has he not practiced martial arts, but he is also so weak, if it is bumpy for a long time, he will naturally die.

Originally, Cao Pi has always been wondering, although Guo Jia loves to drink, but there is no big problem with his body, why did he die at a young age, now that he thinks about it, it must be because of the harsh climate here. This kind of weather can kill Guo Jia, but it can't kill Cao Pi, Cao Zhen, Su Yu, Lu Lingqi, people who practice martial arts, and Yan Rou and 700 cavalry, who are used to the climate here, and this team is just like this in the desert.

The oases near Yanshan Mountain and the Great Wall in the Hunshandak Sands are Wuhuan people, these oases have been destroyed by Ji Yong, all kinds of corpses have turned into carrion at this time, and the bacteria produced by carrion have ravaged the oasis into a plague land, Yan Rou led these troops to bypass such an oasis and go directly to the depths of the desert.

There are no roads in the desert, so it is difficult to walk, Cao Pi's army has been walking for five days to reach an oasis that has not been harmed by Ji Yong, this is a place where small Xianbei tribes live, seeing a large number of troops, the Xianbei people's instinctive reaction is to take up arms, but after Yan Rou communicated with them in Xianbei dialect, these Xianbei people enthusiastically welcomed Cao Pi and them into the oasis.

After five days of marching around the desert, he did not stop at any oasis with water, Cao Pi was now covered in something, and slimy, very uncomfortable, after arriving at the place, Cao Pi immediately asked the sergeant to fetch water for him to bathe, and after taking a bath and changing clothes, he went to the banquet of the local tribal leader to drink and feast.

The leader of this clan knew that this army was from the Han Dynasty, and showed due awe, not only dedicating mare's milk wine and mutton, but also the most beautiful maiden of the tribe.

Yan Rou turned a blind eye to the girl dancing in the tent, approached Cao Pi and whispered: "Zhou Mu, our whereabouts can't be revealed, the Xianbei people who came out of the village today have sent people to follow them out, and kill them in the desert, so as not to leak our whereabouts to Kebineng, if Kebineng knows our whereabouts now, I'm afraid they will gather a large army, and we won't have a surprise effect." ”

When it comes to his own life, Cao Pi naturally won't be sloppy, and then asked: "Do you want to slaughter this tribe?" It's safer this way, after all, when we leave tomorrow, maybe they'll report back. ”

Yan Rou smiled dryly: "This is naturally the best way, but 。。。。。。 After speaking, he glanced at Lu Lingqi, who was sitting on the other side, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that Wenhou's son-in-law won't agree with this move, and I'm afraid that we will have a conflict with her when we slaughter." ”

Cao Pi smiled and said: "It's my life, naturally I can't let her mess up, tonight you will act, I will let her go." (To be continued.) )
