Chapter 508: Desert

As a result, the Minobu immediately divided into two groups, consisting of men with some fighting strength and some strong women, and followed by Harbara and Chaganbara across the desert.

The other group, made up of old people, children, sick women, and men who were too disabled to fight, had to find a habitat outside the desert.

There are also mothers and sons, husbands and wives, but the sturdy men and the women who are willing to carry the sword and soldier fight for the future of the tribe, even at the cost of their own lives.

For those who remain outside the desert, they are warriors, heroes, and the hope that the tribe can return to prosperity.

If only these old and sick people are left in the Mino, then the people of the Minobu will only be slaves in the future, and future generations will be bullied all the time.

After preparing water and dry food, and bringing the clansmen who are good at finding water sources in the desert, Qin Yining's team of about 1,000 people set off towards the desert.

Unlike the last time he entered the desert, Siqin did not make sufficient preparations at that time, but was chased into the desert by the pursuers, bringing a lot of people along the way, but water and dry food were limited, so Siqin abandoned the prisoners one by one along the way, and finally even the Qingtian Alliance who knew the whereabouts of the treasure were thrown into the desert to fend for themselves.

This time, Qin Yining had already planned to enter the desert, and the people of the Mino Department had already made sufficient preparations. Although the journey was tiring and hard, these 1,000 people were at least able to ensure their own lives, and no one would die due to lack of water.

By this time, Utkin Khan's pursuers had also caught up with the Mino's tribesmen.

However, everyone had already discussed it, and they insisted that they didn't know where the rest of the clansmen were, and Siqin really did as Lu Heng and Qin Yining had planned, for the sake of their benevolent reputation, the people who had just ascended the throne did not attack the people of the Mino tribe who stayed outside the desert, and only let them stay where they were to be self-sufficient, not to disturb other tribes, and not to allow them to enter the neighboring towns.

At this time, Siqin could already conclude that Qin Yining and his party had entered the desert.

"What guts. Ben Khan underestimated these two people. ”

I thought that the people who came to Da Zhou were all cowards with developed brains and cowardices, but I didn't expect these two people to dare to take a group of unfamiliar Mino people into the desert!

The accompanying generals looked at Siqin's face and couldn't help but be silent.

Although Siqin has always been tolerant of his subordinates and is a benevolent gentleman, everyone knows that Khan and Anari Khan are childhood sweethearts, and their relationship is the deepest.

The whereabouts of Anari Khan's assassin have been found, but they have not caught up, and I wonder how angry the Khan will be now.

In the end, they are accustomed to seeing Anari Khan's ruthless methods, even if Utkin Khan is not that kind of person, they are afraid in their hearts.

The military general led by him is an old man who followed Siqin when he was in the army, and he is more familiar with Siqin, and understands that Siqin is not a person who is angry, so only he dares to stand up and ask: "Khan, are we still chasing after him?" ”

Siqin pursed his lips and pondered for a moment, and said, "It's really hard to chase after entering the desert. One is too dangerous, the other is that the weather in the desert is too bad, and it is not easy to grasp the direction of defense, so don't let the soldiers lose their lives in vain. ”

"That's what Khan said."

Normally, when these people encounter such a bad situation when they are fighting, they will not continue to pursue, so as not to cause unnecessary casualties.

Siqin taught them these generals on weekdays, and often said that "good steel should be used on the blade", and it is not a wise practice to let the warriors die.

Siqin stood up, his tall head almost reaching the roof of the improvised tent.

He walked to the simple wooden table next to him and took a closer look at the map on it.

When they saw this, they followed. There were also people who were attentive and brought the lampstand to him.

On the map are the mountains and rivers of Tatar, and the grass grows in the desert.

The rough fingers that held the blade all the year round followed the direction of the desert, and finally pointed at several points in the direction of the border line of the Great Zhou.

"Send people to station outside the desert in the direction of Da Zhou, pay attention to these points, and once someone comes out of the desert, arrest them immediately."

"Yes!"

The subordinates were shocked, and the loud voice should be.

Seeing that Siqin did not care about the life or death of the soldiers because he was in a hurry to avenge Anari Khan, everyone admired this new khan even more in their hearts.

In the past, Siqin relied on his outstanding military exploits and excellent command to convince the soldiers under him.

Now his calmness, wisdom and benevolence make everyone's hearts feel at ease.

Although it is a bit disrespectful to say it, Siqin, as a khan, is indeed much better than Anari Khan.

In just a short period of time on the throne, the Tatars have taken on a new look in a short period of time, everyone does not have to worry about being arrested and killed for no reason, the new khan is not a tyrant, and will not take their lives seriously, they only need to do serious errands, and they can all get good treatment. With such a khan, they can also do things with peace of mind, even if they use their talents and abilities.

Everyone was in a high mood and were busy doing things according to Siqin's instructions.

And at this time, Qin Yining's team of nearly 1,000 people braved the cold to hide in the leeward behind a sand pile to rest.

There was silence in the gathering place, and no one had the strength to speak. At this time, you should try to save as much as possible if you can save your physical strength, and say more unnecessary words, as if you are wasting water and food.

Qin Yining looked at Lu Heng, who was lying beside her, shivering with cold wrapped in cotton clothes, his eyes closed, and his lips were white, and he couldn't help frowning worriedly.

They were all very cautious along the way, but the speed was even slower than before entering the desert, because Lu Heng was infected with the wind cold, the momentum was fierce, the treatment was not timely, and the medicinal materials were rare in the hands of everyone in the Mino Tribe, and it was difficult for Lu Heng's illness not to be delayed.

Thinking about it, Lu Heng was also pampered in the Lu family in the past, and he had never experienced such a big change, let alone suffered such a pain. This time, since escaping from Dadu, Lu Heng's tight string seems to have suddenly broken, and a breath of anger can't come out, coupled with the difficult conditions of their displacement, it is not surprising that they have such a big illness.

It's just that everyone expected that Qin Yining would get sick, but it was Lu Heng, who looked much healthier, who fell ill, but everyone guessed wrong.

Lu Heng's illness, taking care of him is all in the hands of Qin Yining, Harbala and Chaganbala.

Qin Yining was careful, and gave her horse to Lu Heng, and led the horse to follow, taking good care of Lu Heng, but it was only inconvenient for her to do some things, so she would ask for Halbala and Chaganbala.

They originally thought that Qin Yining was a delicate-looking and delicate woman, and it was already very surprising that she could let the horse out, but what they didn't expect was that Qin Yining could still insist on walking in the desert. And her physical strength is also limited, but she will never drag others down, let alone be willful, she will refrain from taking a sip of water, and will never let others drink less water because of her.

The beautiful woman is admirable.

And in the bold nation of Tatar, beautiful and strong women are even more fascinating.

Her strength is surprising and admirable, and her intelligence and calmness are also convincing. Even though they knew that she was already a married woman, there were still many young men in the clan who had a good impression of her and were willing to give her their own dry food and water. It's just that she never took it.

Qin Yining can appreciate everyone's kindness, but he will not snatch other people's things. In the desert, water and food are the most important things to sustain life, and if she eats and drinks other people's food, it will make others face the danger of death a little more, and she will never do such a thing.

Lu Heng's illness made Qin Yining very worried. After all, they are suffering together, Lu Heng is her savior, this friend can really be called dedicated, she tried her best to repay, naturally it is impossible to give up on him, but the conditions are limited, and they have to travel in the desert, such a situation is impossible to recuperate, making Lu Heng's situation look even more dangerous.

Another problem is that Qin Yining does not understand the language.

Qin Yining still only knows simple words such as eating, resting, and unraveling, and she can't understand or say them no matter how complicated they are. If Lu Heng is unconscious and can't speak, then communicating with others has become the biggest problem.

And Lu Heng's current situation is that he sometimes sleeps and sometimes wakes up, and often misses some important things, Qin Yining encounters an emergency command, and most people can't understand it.

Fortunately, there is also the Uncle Arhan with the broken arm, if Qin Yining doesn't use any complicated words and just says simple meanings, Uncle Arhan can understand it, and he can also help him explain it to the people around him. You can also translate the words of the clansmen to her in simple Da Zhou dialect, so that it is much more convenient for her to listen to the news and give orders.

"He's still having a fever." Al Khan said anxiously: "What can I do if this continues?" We don't have a doctor in the team, and he doesn't look very strong. ”

Qin Yining was also worried, and tightened the cotton robe tightly covering Lu Heng's body. At this time, it is best to cover Lu Heng with a cold cloth, or wipe his body with wine to cool Lu Heng, but now their conditions and drinking water have to be calculated, as long as they keep themselves from being thirsty to death, it is even more impossible to cover Lu Heng with a cloth.

At the moment of life and death, Qin Yining couldn't estimate the rest, and put his frozen and stiff hand on Lu Heng's forehead.

Lu Heng seemed to be a little more comfortable, rubbed it in her palm, and muttered to her pale and chapped lips: "It's so cold." ”

Qin Yining wrinkled his eyebrows, very helpless.

If Lu Heng lost his life, she would be too sorry for him.

If it weren't for Mu Jinghu and Lu Heng who saw that the situation was wrong and came out that day, and Lu Heng didn't care about the conditions that had been negotiated with Siqin, and did everything to help, she would probably have been insulted to death.

She will definitely repay Mu Jinghu's kindness.

And Lu Heng's kindness hasn't had time to repay it, how can he die in the desert like this?
