Chapter 664: The soldiers are divided into two ways

Wu Ze clearly knew how great the difficulties they faced this time, the content recorded in the text of the parchment scroll only described the general location of Gu Mi City, Zhang Qichen and they used the description of the words on the parchment scroll, and then delineated a general range in this area, and then they needed to search within this general range, which was a very large workload.

After the vicissitudes of life over the past thousands of years, what kind of Gumi City has become, whether it will be completely submerged by the yellow sand, everyone's hearts are uncertain, and now they can only take one step at a time.

The expedition team rested here for one night, and the next morning, everyone was busy, and from today onwards, their task was no longer simply to rush, they needed to find the legendary ruins of the ancient city within this pre-delineated range, which not only tested their eyesight, but also had to add some elements of luck.

"Okay, now that we are all ready, we only owe Dongfeng, in the next search process, please keep your eyes open, don't let go of any suspicious places, can you find the ancient city that has disappeared for thousands of years, success or failure is in this move, everyone come on!" Before leaving, Zhang Qichen made a final mobilization to the other members of the delegation.

After Zhang Qichen finished mobilizing, the team went straight out.

In this vast desert, it was undoubtedly very difficult to search for an unknown ruins of an ancient city, and they spent the whole day staring around with wide eyes for fear of missing a suspicious place.

It's a pity that in the process of searching, they almost stared out their eyeballs, but they still failed to find the ruins of the ancient Mi City in this desert.

This situation lasted for five days.

For five days in a row, they set out every morning full of hope, but every evening they reaped a full disappointment.

Everyone in the delegation is now feeling a little worried, because their current progress has completely fallen behind the plan.

According to the original plan, they planned to spend seven days to go to this area, and after arriving in this area, they would spend another three days to find the whereabouts of Gumicheng, and after they found the ruins of Gumicheng, they would need to spend two more days to do a preliminary investigation of the ruins of Gumicheng, so that even if they completed the investigation task, other specific archaeological research would be handed over to the follow-up army to complete.

Their plan looked perfect, but unfortunately, it was a different story.

If the itinerary was planned according to the original plan, they should have successfully completed the investigation mission and had embarked on the road home of victory.

It's a pity that the plan has not changed quickly, and the people of the expedition group have been in the desert for fourteen days, and they are still walking around this area until now, and they haven't even seen the shadow of Gu Mi City.

This situation made everyone feel a little upset, originally expected to find Gu Mi City in three days, but now they have been looking for five days, and where Gu Mi City is located is still unknown.

It turned out that when they planned before, they were still too optimistic, and originally thought that it would take three days to search for the whereabouts of Gu Mi City, but now it turns out that this time is too short, let alone only three days, in fact, they have now spent five days, but they still haven't been able to complete this area.

"Professor Zhang, it won't work like this, the efficiency of our search is too low, I propose that starting tomorrow, we will divide into two routes, and then go hand in hand to do a dragnet search for the remaining area." At the meeting in the evening, Wu Ze put forward his proposal.

"Well, I think this method is feasible, but we need to pay attention to the distance between the two teams should not be too far apart, otherwise, if something goes wrong, they will not be able to help each other." Li Jiahao agreed to Wu Ze's proposal.

In this place, the mobile phone has long been out of signal, and the walkie-talkie they carry, the power is not too big, the effective call distance, about a few kilometers, if they go too far, they will not be able to maintain communication between them, and they are likely to be separated if they are not careful.

In the position they are in now, most of the time, it is inaccessible, if they are separated, it is a very dangerous thing, and if they don't do it, they will give away their lives, Li Jiahao doesn't want to bring this danger to the team.

"Well, I know that, and I'll pay attention to that when the time comes." Wu Ze nodded and replied.

For him, the safety of personnel's lives must be put first, and Wu Ze doesn't want to leave himself or his teammates in this big desert forever.

In the end, they unanimously decided to divide the troops into two routes from tomorrow, one of which was led by Wu Ze, and the team included Luo Fatzi, Jiang Yan, Liu Rumei and Zeng Xuhui.

On the morning of the fifteenth day, after Wu Ze and the five men had prepared their things, they rode their camels in the northwest direction, intending to search the back of the sand dune.

"Brother Ze, if we can't find Gu Mi City in the past two days, will we have to retreat?" Luo Fatzi asked gracefully on the back of a camel.

During this period of time, although Gu Micheng has not been found, their camel riding skills have made great progress, and Luo Fatzi is now very leisurely riding on camels.

"Well, if we can't find the whereabouts of Gu Mi City in the past two days, then we can only retreat, and if we don't leave, our supplies will be insufficient." Wu Ze nodded and replied.

Although the amount of supplies they carried this time was quite sufficient, no matter how sufficient, it would always run out one day, and they had to consider that it would take several days to retreat, and they also had to consider whether there would be any accidents in the process of retreating, so it was impossible for them to think about retreating after all the supplies were exhausted.

"Alas, this time I wanted to come with me for a long time, but I didn't expect that I had only eaten sand in this big desert for more than ten days, and I knew that I wouldn't come." Liu Rumei sighed on the side.

"Eating sand is also a life experience, and when you go back, you can brag in your circle of friends that you have eaten sand for more than ten days in this sea of death, and this kind of experience is not something that can be encountered by any person." Luo Fatzi said with a smile.
