Chapter 811: God Bless

The rippling waves of sand stretched from in front of him into the distance, and then they were blocked by an endless mound, and the golden sand filled the whole view, and there was not a trace of other colors in sight, and the sky was still so gloomy, and the lead clouds seemed to be about to collapse at any moment.

Li Qing and the people around him are already yellow people, a layer of yellow sand has fallen on the originally bright armor, condensed on it, and I don't know how much sand has been drilled into the clothes.

There were big bubbles on his lips, since yesterday, Li Qing has not touched a drop of water, not without water, as the supreme leader of this army, Li Qing's drinking water can still be guaranteed, but in order to show that he shares weal and woe with the soldiers, Li Qing stubbornly refused to touch a drop of water.

Stretching out his equally dry tongue and licking his cracked lips, Li Qing pointed to the sand dunes in the distance and said with a smile: "See, maybe when we cross that hill, there will be a river and an oasis in front of us!" ”

Li Qing's words lifted the spirits of the people around him, and a river like a silver ribbon flowed in front of him involuntarily in his mind, and the sound of gurgling water was more beautiful than any concert in front of him.

Li Wen's voice was a little hoarse, and he looked at Sun Zewu, "General Sun, let your flying eagle go to explore, the lord said that there is, then maybe there really is!" ”

Sun Zewu nodded, "I'll go personally." Seeing that Li Wen's eyes were very meaningful, he was slightly stunned, and he understood in an instant, the so-called Wangshan running a dead horse, here is close to the sand dunes, in fact, it is at least half a day's journey, Li Wen means that even if he doesn't, he might as well deceive everyone, so that everyone can muster up the courage to move forward.

Watching a team of flying eagles leave the brigade and run forward, Li Qing smiled and said: "I said yes, then there is, hahaha, I'm not a fairy, a few days ago, I said don't want a sandstorm, isn't the sandstorm still coming?" ”

The crowd burst into laughter. Li Qing shook his head, "Manpower is sometimes poor, and the power of nature is truly earth-shattering." Li Wen, the people of Flying Eagle are quite energetic, I think you are a little sluggish. ”

Li Wen said with a smile: "These guys, when it comes to martial arts, it's really not good, but this ability to survive, I sigh to myself, in this vast sea, they can also find food at any time, but I feel a little disgusting when I see it, and I really can't eat it." ”

Li Qing also smiled bitterly and nodded again and again, over the years, he has suffered there, watching Sun Zewu and they took out some scorpions, hibernating snakes, and some gerbils from under the sand, and happily ate them raw, almost making Li Qing vomit out, the first time Sun Zewu happily lifted a gerbil to himself, but Li Qinggan stared at it for a long time and didn't eat it.

"These people are specially trained, and these things are delicious in their eyes." Iron Leopard also smiled bitterly, "The special training of the Supervision Institute is really devilish and unbearable, I once saw Wang Yan grabbing an earthworm, just lifting it and swallowing it, and told me that this thing has high nutritional value." One can eat a meal, and that makes me vomit on the spot. ”

"Shut up, you!" Li Wen slammed a chestnut on the head of the iron leopard, "Are you trying to make us vomit?" ”

Everyone laughed, but the fatigue was a little lessened, and they stepped on the sand and walked forward. The long line behind him struggled forward.

"Now we can't hold on to this state for a few days, if we can't find a way out or find a water source, notify Wang Yan and kill the horse!" Li Qingdao.

"Kill the horse?" Li Wen was taken aback, "My lord, the cavalry of the Changsheng battalion regard horses as their comrades-in-arms, love horses as their lives, and if they kill horses, I am afraid that these soldiers will not be willing." ”

"If you don't want to, you have to be willing, compared to horses, that's more expensive, if the horses are gone, I can still match them again, if the people are gone, there will be nothing." Li Qingdao: "You tell Wang Yan what I mean first, let him inform the officers at all levels, and be mentally prepared, I don't want some unnecessary scenes to occur at that time." ”

Li Wen stood silent for a moment, "I know, lord." ”

This remark made everyone's mood rise again, and it seemed that the handsome man had already prepared for the worst.

Sun Zewu took dozens of flying eagles, rode straight to the hill in the distance, for what was behind the sand dune, Sun Zewu did not have any hope, now the plan, can only do everything possible to boost morale, so that the soldiers can hold on for a longer time, if there are only flying eagles and these people, Sun Zewu is confident that it is not impossible to take these people to survive in the Hanhai for a long time, but now, the large army of up to 20,000 people has become a big problem, Sun Zewu knows that the army is actually almost to the limit, Hold on to the top for another two or three days, and if you can't find a water source again, depending on the lord's intentions, you will kill the horse.

Gently stroking the huge head of the love horse, Sun Zewu sighed, and the war horse felt Sun Zewu's caressing, raised his head, and hissed very enjoyably.

The group rushed up to the sand dunes, Sun Zewu's eyes widened instantly, his body weakened, and he almost fell off his horse.

Behind the dunes, a silver-white jade ribbon was embedded in the yellow sand, it was so conspicuous, it was a river, a frozen river, although the vegetation on both sides of the river had withered yellow, but it was indeed some plants, and the leaves of the low bushes in the east and the west were all gone, and only the bare branches were swaying in the wind.

The joy came so suddenly, all the soldiers who came with Sun Zewu stared blankly at the silver band, their lips squirmed, but they couldn't say a word.

In the middle of the night, Sun Zewu shouted, turned the horse's head, galloped back, waved his arms vigorously from afar, and shouted: "Lord, water, I see water!" ”

Li Qing and the others were still struggling to move forward, no one spoke, so as not to waste the saliva that was particularly precious now, seeing Sun Zewu galloping towards him in the distance, waving his arms, and not knowing what he was shouting in his mouth, Iron Leopard asked strangely: "What is Sun Zewu talking about?" ”

"Isn't there water on the other side of the hill?"

Li Qing's eyes suddenly lit up.

When Sun Zewu was more than a dozen steps away, he had already turned over and dismounted, and rushed towards Li Qing with a rolling belt, kneeling down straight, "Lord, God bless Lord, God bless Dingzhou, I see water, a river, a frozen river!" It's on the other side of the hill. ”

As soon as Sun Zewu's voice fell, a thunderous cheer erupted around him, "God bless the lord, God bless Dingzhou!" ”

The cheers in front reached the team, and in an instant, the long line cheered in unison, and there was no need to rush, everyone was running forward with the wind under their feet.

Riding on the hill, looking at the winding jade belt not far away, Li Qing almost burst into tears, and then looked into the distance, and could already vaguely see the shadows of the undulating mountains.

"Let's go, let's drink water!" Li Qing pointed with his big hand, and the soldiers cheered and rushed down the hill and rushed towards the glacier.

Li Qing laughed, and rushed forward surrounded by Li Wen Tiebao and Sun Zewu.

Wang Yan's cavalry troops were fast, the first to reach the river, looking at the glacier, the meteor hammer in Wang Yan's hand flew out one after the other, two loud noises, the thick ice was suddenly broken, two clear spring porphyras spewed out, turned over and dismounted, Wang Yan stretched out his mouth, greedily swallowed the ice water, the war horse around him also stretched out his neck, and his tongue rolled up the water into the big mouth.

"Drink slowly, drink slowly, I won't be thirsty for you." Wang Yan hugged the horse's neck and lovingly combed the horse's mane.

The cavalry of the brigade waved the ice weapon in their hands, broke the ice, lay on the ice, drank water in a big gulp, drank their fill, took off their helmets, scooped up a full helmet head, and fed the war horses, on the other side, Wang Yan waved his meteor hammer, smashed the ice in front of him to pieces, revealing a puddle of more than ten meters square, peeled off the armor in three or two times, and jumped into the water naked, "Happy, happy!" Wang Yan fluttered in the water, shivering and screaming.

The iron leopard spread a blanket on the ground, then took out an iron kettle from his bag, and galloped upstream to get water for Li Qing.

Looking at the cheering soldiers, Li Qing smiled, took off his boots, poured a pile of sand out of them, and smashed his shoes on the ground hard, his feet hurt a little, needless to say, these damn sand had blistered his feet.

"Lord!" Li Wen walked over with a smile, "God bless the lord, God bless Dingzhou." The guide had already recognized the terrain, which was less than fifty miles away from our target. ”

"What a fluke!" Li Qing sighed, although he took into account the difficulties before sending the troops, he didn't expect that the difficulties would be the same, if he really walked in the Hanhai for more than ten days, it would be terrible, but as Li Wen said, God bless Dingzhou, as long as he walks out of the Hanhai, then the overall situation will be determined, and the southern army is afraid that it will never dream that from the uninhabited forbidden land, there will be a large team of people in Dingzhou.

"Immediately send out sentinels to find out the terrain around here, as well as the distance from this place to Yingcheng, the situation of the other party's garrison, the road situation, etc., and contact the spies of the Supervision Yuan, they should meet us in this area."

"Yes!"

"The whole army is repairing here for the time being, and when all the information is discovered, we will immediately send troops to attack Yingcheng."

Li Wen turned around to handle a business, and the iron leopard had already galloped back, and the kettle was full of a pot of water, "Lord, please drink!" ”

Taking the kettle, Li Qing drank half of the kettle in one go, feeling the coolness from his throat to his stomach.

"Wowhaha, I caught a fish!" Wang Yan, who was fluttering in the river, raised his hands high, and in his hands, a silver-white fish about a foot long was writhing desperately.
