Salah's face was overjoyed, and he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, expressing his submission to Ma Lu.

Ma Lan smiled, and got a fleet without much effort, and there would be no need for too many Anxi athletes to get on board in the future.

In the future, in his fleet, the sea ships controlled by Anxi Jian'er will provide long-range firepower, and the sea ships controlled by the big cannibals will concentrate on transporting black slaves.

The most lacking thing in the Anxi Army is manpower, and there is no possibility of solving this problem in a short period of time. It would be unrealistic for a large fleet of ships with all the sailors to be drawn from the Ancy army. In this way, the problem can be solved as quickly as possible.

Since Salah knew the route, he could lead the fleet to catch the black slaves, and his value to the Anxi army was this. If he didn't know the route, he wouldn't be alive today.

……

The Fufeng and the Anthy sailed against the current, approaching the eight ships with their masts down, Salah stood on the bow and gave orders to the ships, and the sailors of the House of Nekonan put up their masts again, hoisted their triangular sails high, and followed the Fufu and Anzai towards the middle of the channel.

The eight ships all kept a distance of more than 1,000 paces from the Fufeng Anzai, which was Ma Lan's special request. If you get too close, if one or two more guys come out and throw a few bottles of Greek fire, it will be unnecessary trouble.

Today's training was over for the time being, and the Fufeng and Anzai clumsily led the way in front, driving along the fixed channel in the direction of Wannian City, with the eight surrendered ships of the Nekonan family following behind.

After entering the port, the sailors of the eight ships disembarked and were immediately firmly controlled by the Anxi army on the shore.

Ma Ling got off the ship with Salah and directly ordered the scouts to go to Fars Province to see if Tian Mingyuan and Niu Xu had exterminated the Nekonan family.

If the Nekonan family has been wiped out, then not to mention, these sailors can only do something, and Salah must die to avoid future troubles. If not, then another plan will be implemented, and Salah will become the master of the Nekonan family, and the Anxi army will accept the allegiance of the Nekonan family.

After today's battle, Ma Lan also really felt the horror of Greek fire. The recipe for this thing had been lost in later generations, and no one could copy it, so he didn't know how to make it. With today's experience, Ma Lan knew that Greek fire could be a powerful supplement to cannons, so he decided to set up a workshop to produce Greek fire in Wannian City as well, so that it could be used by the fleet in the future.

As for the recipe, although it is still in a state of secrecy, it is in the hands of large families, such as the Holzman family and the Nekonan family. Salah is not the head of the family for the time being, and he does not have a formula in his hand, but this formula can be asked for from the Holzman family, and Holzman will definitely not dare not give it.

Later records of Greek fire are extremely chaotic, some say that it spontaneously combusts when it meets water, and some even say that it burns violently when it encounters air, and now Ma Lu has determined that it is spontaneously combusted when it meets water. If it spontaneously combustifies when it comes into contact with air, it can't be preserved at all in this era, and it won't just be a demon in naval warfare.

……

Mohe Yan moraine, eight hundred miles square, no water and grass on the ground, wind and sand like a knife.

This great desert is the so-called quicksand in Chinese classics. After Moheyan moraine, it is the boundary of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate.

During the Zhenguan period, Master Xuanzang traveled west to learn scriptures, and spent four days and five nights when crossing this desert, and almost died of lack of food and water, which is recorded in detail in the "Tang Western Regions". This area is called quicksand, also called Sand River, and later in "Journey to the West", it became the eight-hundred-mile quicksand river, and became the place where Master Xuanzang accepted his apprentices.

Although desolate, Moheyan was an extremely important trade route. Datang set up ten post stations in this desert, separated by nearly 100 miles from each other, to provide necessary assistance to passing merchants.

On the old desert trade route, a horse-drawn carriage was trudging with difficulty. The coachman, Zhao Da, shrunk and sat on the wheel, looking at the vast sea of sand around him, and kept cursing in his mouth.

These two dead women really hurt him! In this place where birds don't poop, I can't even see a ghost, and I don't know when it's a head.

Originally, when he arrived at Arai Station, he didn't want to go any further, this place couldn't see a little green, and from time to time he could see the bones of mules and horses, Zhao Da was really scared. However, the two women in the carriage took out a few large pieces of silver and gave him a few more dollars, saying that they would be able to cross this area in three or five days, and for the sake of money, Zhao Da had no choice but to drive the carriage on.

However, at this time, Zhao Da was already extremely regretful.

Originally, he only had to send them out of Guannei Road, he was just an ordinary coachman, and he was always in Chang'an City, where had he ever been to such a far place. However, seeing that the two people in the car did not look like ordinary people, the price was high enough, they were beautiful and polite, so he reluctantly agreed to send them to Guazhou. Now that Guazhou has arrived, they asked him to send them across the desert again!

According to the guards of Arai Station, entering the quicksand is like walking in the ghost gate. He really doesn't want to die here anymore, his wife and children are still waiting for him. But I have already collected the money, and no matter how scared I am, I have to continue to move forward.

Inside the carriage, Ye Feiyu leaned on the brocade quilt, listening to the coachman's incessant scolding, his face was extremely gloomy.

After leaving Chang'an for more than 20 days, her arm injury has basically healed, although she can no longer use the sword, she can stretch freely, not much different from ordinary people.

Kang Xiaoyu smiled, although the coachman scolded more and more fiercely, and when she pointed at their noses and scolded, she was not annoyed at all.

After this desert, it is the moraine. That place is the territory of Brother Pony.

Now that the knot is untied, she will go to Brother Pony's side and ask if he likes Xiaoyu. With each turn of the carriage, she got a little closer to the west of the moraine, and her heart became warmer.

Fourteen years, how many fourteen years can be wasted in life! If it weren't for Ye Scarlet's obstruction at the beginning, she and Brother Pony would have been together a long time ago.

Ye Feiyu suddenly lifted the curtain, looked at the coachman and smiled: "Hey! ”

"What are you doing!" The coachman turned around and shouted angrily, obviously he had too much resentment in his heart, and although the woman in front of him was dignified and beautiful, he refused to give her a good face.

"This little brother, there is a spring behind the sand mountain, let's go there and fill the water bag, rest for a while before leaving." Ye Scarlet Fish pointed to a large sand dune on the right and smiled.

"Done!" The coachman spoke loudly, his voice still full of anger, and he urged the carriage to drive towards the great sand dune.

Ye Scarlet Fish lowered the curtain and leaned back on the brocade quilt. Kang Xiaoyu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he glanced at Ye Feiyu, but he didn't speak.

The carriage went up to the sand dunes and stopped at the top of the dunes, and the coachman Zhao Da shouted angrily outside: "Come out and see!" Come out and see! ”

"What?" Ye Feiyu walked out of the carriage and smiled at the boundless sea of sand in front of him.

"Where is the spring? Yes? Where is the spring water? Zhao said angrily.

"Isn't that?" Ye Scarlet Fish smiled and pointed to the bottom of the sand dunes.

When Zhao Da looked down, he suddenly felt a sudden chill between his ribs, and then his strength was instantly emptied, and he fell to the ground involuntarily.

The sunlight was a little glaring, but I could still see the bloody short knife in the woman's hand. Zhao Da raised his finger and pointed at it, making a ho-ho sound in his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

"It's just a coachman, why kill him?" Kang Xiaoyu frowned and looked at Ye Feiyudao.

"He went out with us at Anyuanmen, and it was all doomed. You know very well in your heart, why bother now? Ye Scarlet Fish smiled.

Kang Xiaoyu said: "I didn't think about it that way. After the desert is the territory of the pony, and when we get there, we don't have to worry about any Lijingmen, after all, this is a human life. ”

"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if. Before we find your pony, there's still a chance we'll be overtaken by the people of Lijingmen. If this person is not eliminated, it is a hidden danger. Besides, he scolded us all the way, and he was looking for his own death. ”

Kang Xiaoyu glanced at Zhao Da, who was twitching on the ground, turned his head to look at Ye Feiyu and said, "This is the last time." When you reach the realm of the pony, I won't let you kill anyone. If you provoke him, I will not be able to save you. ”

"Don't worry, girl." Ye Feiyu nodded and smiled, "I've lived a life of fear for decades, and now I just want to live a stable life with my daughter and son-in-law for a few days." After meeting your pony, I'm just an ordinary old woman, just a casual eater, and I won't trouble you. ”

"It's for the best. If you kill again, we'll go our separate ways, and I'll go find the ponies myself. ”

"Good daughter, I see."

Kang Xiaoyu stopped talking, watching the coachman's blood drain, and opened his eyes in despair. Ye Scarlet Fish walked to the carriage, and the short knife in his hand flew up and down, and soon dismembered the carriage into a pile of broken wood.

Two horses pulled the cart, loaded with water bags and food, and the two rode out of the dunes and back to the desolate trail.

The coachman's body and carriage were behind the dunes, and it would not be long before they would be buried by the wind and sand. They need to get to Guangxian Post before dark, otherwise spending the night in the desert will be extremely dangerous.

Guangxian Station is the second post station in Moheyan Moraine, with dozens of soldiers. The caravanserai is a small fortress that functions as a beacon. In front of the post station is a lake, more than a mile long, nearly 100 steps wide, surrounded by reeds, which is extremely dazzling in the Gobi.

The ten post stations set up by Datang in Mohe Yanqi are all in places with water sources, and Guangxian Station is naturally no exception. However, such a lake is unique to Guangxianyi, and the water source of other post stations is not so large.

When Kang Xiaoyu and Ye Feiyu arrived at Guangxianyi, there were already a lot of caravans gathered here, all of which were stationed all over the lake. The appearance of two beautiful women here also aroused the curiosity of the merchants.

The two rode past the caravan and came straight to the hill by the lake, where a castle was the Guangxian Station. They didn't want to mix with the merchants, and the inn itself also provided accommodation, so it was naturally a better choice.

When he arrived at the edge of Guangxian Station, Kang Xiaoyu's face suddenly changed slightly, and he turned around the horse's head. Ye Scarlet Fish reacted very quickly, and he also turned around and followed Kang Xiaoyu down the hills.

"Daughter, what's wrong?" Ye Feiyu asked in a low voice.

"Met someone." Kang Xiaoyu snorted coldly and said, "I thought she had already arrived in Anxi, but I didn't expect to come here." (To be continued.) )
