Chapter 417: The Lingnan March

Hu Ye guessed correctly, Zhu Yunwen was really about to leave, presumably because his love for the people had been satisfied, and it was time to go on the next journey.

So the next day, the army began to assemble, but there were two roads in front of Zhu Yunwen, because he was going to Zhangzhou, Chaozhou, Huizhou, and Guangzhou next, so he could choose to take the sea route, and there were just nine big ships, and it would not be a problem to bring 3,000 men and horses.

But with the experience of the last tornado, Zhu Yunwen didn't dare to take the sea route lightly, so he had to take the land route.

But the land route is not easy to walk, because the plank road is just a small road, and it is impossible to pass this kind of army at all. What's even worse is that once they enter the territory of Zhangzhou, it is the boundary of Lingnan, and even Lou Ying and Xiao Jiuxian are a little afraid when they hear that they are going to enter the territory of Lingnan.

When they used to be traveling doctors, they often traveled everywhere, but the southernmost point was only at the junction of Jiangxi and Guangdong, and they did not dare to set foot in the boundary of Guangdong. They thought they knew very little about the climate of Lingnan, and they didn't know anything about the diseases there, so if they accidentally got sick, should they treat themselves themselves? But they couldn't even prescribe a prescription.

In the end, Zhu Yunwen still chose the land route, because there was no such terrible water dragon king on land, and the Yue people were able to live in Lingnan before, could his army not be able to march in Lingnan?

The nine ships were left in Quanzhou, and Zhu Yunwen instructed Lu Bing to take good care of them, because in the future, these big ships will still be of great use, as for what they are for, Lu Bing did not ask, and Zhu Yunwen did not say, but just asked Lu Bing to train the soldiers of Yongningwei well, and he will take these sons and daughters to make contributions in the future.

Lu Bing patted his chest and promised that during his tenure, there would never be a situation of empty salary, and he would train Yongningwei to be a good player on the water. Although Zhu Yunwen didn't say it, when it comes to making contributions, where else can you make contributions in Quanzhou? Of course, it is Penghu and Dongfan. As soon as he thought that Zhu Yunwen let go of those would-be robbers, Lu Bing had already realized that he would definitely become a star shining in the Ming Dynasty in the future!

When the army set off, they also brought dozens of widows, these are the people who have survived the torture of Lou Ying and Xiao Jiuxian these days, and they have watched Lou Ying and Xiao Jiuxian kill their compatriots every day, so now they are all numb, and there is nothing to fear of death, except for when they eat every day, there is no look in their eyes.

Anyway, they will die under the powder of Lou Ying and Xiao Jiuxian. I can only live one more day.

However, Hu Ye was a little criticized for the two old men, your speed is too slow, it has been more than half a year, and there is no leader in the research of blood coagulants, and with such a large dose of real yàn, I don't know how much bloodthirsty injections are left for them.

So after the army left Quanzhou, every few dozen miles, a stiff corpse would appear in a certain valley, which was killed by Lou Ying and Xiao Jiuxian.

"Zichen. What realm have we reached now? ”

Seeing that another corpse of a would-be coward fell off the cliff not far away, Zhu Yunwen asked Yun Zichen beside him unmoved.

Yun Zichen took out a marching map and searched for it again and again, trying to find some similarities with the nearby landforms. But they found nothing.

"Your Highness, yesterday we should still be in the territory of Zhangzhou, but now we ......"

Yun Zichen looked up at the unfamiliar environment around him and shook his head. He said he didn't know where he was.

Zhu Yunwen frowned, he wasn't so unlucky, he went to sea last time. If you get lost at sea, will you get lost this time by land?

"Go and call Hu Ye for me." Zhu Yunwen opened his clothes and said loudly.

Although it is now the middle of October, the weather in Lingnan is really unbearable, the sun is shining, although there are trees to shade, but it is always very hot, and it will be very cold at night.

Hu Ye is practicing with a bow and arrow at the moment, and when he sees something moving on any tree, he will shoot an arrow, this is not the sea, those Japanese robbers on the sea are big and live targets. But in this wood, everything on the trees is very flexible, otherwise how would they survive here?

So Hu Ye's crosshairs were very poor, and he shot several arrows, but he couldn't shoot down the monkey on the tree.

After that, he also seemed to be very angry, pouted his red ass, and looked at Hu Ye is contempt.

"Grandma, if I don't clean you up today, Lao Tzu won't be surnamed Hu!"

Hu Ye was also angry, Lao Tzu's hands were stained with the blood of a lot of widows, what are you dragging a monkey!

Just as Hu Ye was about to draw his bow and shoot arrows, Yun Zichen came over and said that Zhu Yunwen asked him to come over.

"Let you go today, if you dare to show up, see if I don't chop you!"

Hu Ye put down his bow and arrow viciously, and walked in the direction of Zhu Yunwen with the old money.

Hu Ye left, but the monkey didn't go, he continued to play, and Xiaoqiang didn't leave, just staring at the monkey below. How dare you tease my eldest brother? Be careful that Lao Tzu doesn't bite your throat off.

The monkey seemed to understand the meaning in Xiaoqiang's eyes, but he was not afraid at all, but twisted his ass at an accelerated pace, looking extremely arrogant.

Xiao Qiang was angry and only hated why he couldn't climb the tree, otherwise he would have to tear the monkey to pieces.

When the army had already crossed, Xiao Qiang left with a hoarse grin, but he couldn't lose his eldest brother.

At this moment, Hu Ye had already come to Zhu Yunwen's side and listened to Zhu Yunwen talk about the situation in front of him.

"Now the situation is unknown, and I don't even know the exact location, what can you do?" After Zhu Yunwen finished speaking, he asked Hu Ye worriedly.

Hu Ye shrugged his shoulders, this kind of question shouldn't be asked to him, if there is a global positioning device, he can tell Zhu Yunwen what kind of place this is. But now there is nothing, no satellites, no electricity, and it is useless to have that instrument.

"The most important thing is that two soldiers have fallen ill, according to Mr. Lou's meaning, those two soldiers have been isolated and taken care of, if you walk in this kind of mountain forest again, there will be more sick soldiers." Zhu Yunwen said helplessly.

"What's the way to do this, drinking water can still choke people to death, marching in this kind of place, some people don't get sick, as long as they don't get infected with some strange diseases." Hu Ye said indifferently, marching in the mountains and forests of Lingnan can indeed bypass the official road and save a lot of time, but the various strange diseases inside are invisible killers.

Originally, when he entered Zhangzhou, Hu Ye built a yì Zhu Yunwen to take the official road, so that although the road was far away, it was much safer, and there were post stations along the way to replenish.

But Zhu Yunwen insisted that the official road was winding and rugged, and where to go to the mountains and forests to save time, so he walked in with the army without hesitation.

So it became the current situation, lost in the jungle of Lingnan.

But fortunately, there are some military doctors in the army who are from Lingnan and know the natural environment here very well, squeezing strange herbs into juice and then applying them to their bodies and faces, so that mosquitoes and those strange little insects will not come to bite.

So after going into this jungle for several days, no one got sick or anything because they were bitten by mosquitoes, and the two who fell ill were just because they didn't adapt to this climate, which caused physical discomfort, and as long as they got out of this environment, they would soon recover.

Hu Ye also saw that Lou Ying and Xiao Jiuxian were covered in green juice all over their bodies, and if they changed into camouflage uniforms, they would be completely jungle warriors, but they were running to the back of the team with boxes, and it seemed that someone was sick again.

"How do you usually feel uncomfortable? What should you do in this situation? Zhu Yunwen saw that another soldier was sick, and he already had a trace of worry in his heart, not that he was afraid that those sick soldiers would die, after all, when marching and fighting, where are the immortals.

He was just worried that this would lead to a riot in the army, after all, a large team of 3,000 people, if there was a panic, his words would probably have little effect.

"The way now is to get out of this jungle as much as possible, and the best way to get out of this jungle is to find locals to lead the way. So all you have to do now is send a team of men to explore the road and check for signs of human activity in front of the jungle, as long as you find the locals, there is no problem getting out of this jungle. ”

"Looking for a local to lead the way? Do you still need to say this? I have sent people out to investigate a long time ago, but I have not found any signs of human activity in the past few days. Zhu Yunwen muttered.

Hu Ye rolled his eyes, then glanced at Zhu Yunwen with disdain, and then shrugged his shoulders, saying that he had no other way but to send more teams.

"Your Highness, I'll just say that Hu Ye has a false appearance, and there is nothing he can do when he encounters difficulties."

Looking at the back of Hu Ye leaving, Yun Zichen said to Zhu Yunwen.

"Okay, let's go here today, give the order, and set up camp. Immediately send someone out to search for traces of human activity, and if you find it, report it immediately. Zhu Yunwen looked at the sky and found that it was already dusk, it was time to rest, if it was night, without the warmth of the tent, I don't know what it would be frozen.

Yun Zichen was stunned for a moment, didn't he say that he had already sent someone out to investigate? Why are you letting me go out to investigate now?

Glancing at Zhu Yunwen's face, Yun Zichen guessed something, but he didn't dare to say more, so he hurriedly sent someone out to investigate.

Early the next morning, the jungle began to be noisy, with birds chirping, monkeys, and more often the snoring of soldiers, far drowning out the sounds of the animals.

Before Hu Ye fully woke up, he was pulled away by Yun Zichen, saying that Zhu Yunwen had something important to discuss.

Hu Ye wondered, didn't I tell you yesterday that we don't have a good way? Why are you calling us again?

When Hu Ye came to Zhu Yunwen's tent, he found that Zhu Yunwen's expression was very tangled, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or worried.

"Four teams were sent out last night, and only three teams came back." Zhu Yunwen said directly to Hu Ye.

Hu Ye was stunned, could it be that this thing was to cure his own crimes? (To be continued......)
