Seeing that everything is on the right track, the journey of the Heaven-Shaking Alliance and the Cheche People is about to open a new chapter, and this time the Metropolitan Governor has set his sights on the Kankun tribe. It is said that this Kankun people are good at trading, so the tribe must be full of gold and jade, and they are so rich, right? The Metropolitan Governor is happy to think about it, hey, how to spend when he is suddenly financially free? Is the villa by the sea or the luxury car swinging sideways?

However, a word from Samanda and Tuda punctured the Governor's dreams, and they suggested starting with the closer Kaman tribes. There are two reasons: first, the Kaman tribe produces craftsmen but is not good at fighting, and belongs to the soft persimmon in everyone's eyes; Second, there are natural dangers on the way to the Kankun tribe.

"Heaven? What antenna? Wired or wireless? "The Governor pretends not to understand, and some people are always pouring cold water on you while you're drawing blueprints and rolling up your sleeves.

"Governor Dadu, there are more than 300 miles of sand roads to Kankun, and it will take five or six days to travel under the stars. The most important thing is to cross Death Canyon on the way, on the way. This Death Canyon is a huge crack in the sea of sand, constantly spewing hot magma from the inside out, ordinary people will quickly suffocate as long as they get close, and after a long time, their clothes and hair will catch fire and cause spontaneous combustion and die. Tuda said in horror.

"Oh? So how did the Kankun people cross Death Canyon? The Governor was curious.

"It is said that the Kankun people are the masters of Death Canyon, and they have a unique way to cross the canyon that no one else has ever seen." Tuda replied to him.

"A strange way?" The Grand Governor turned and fell into deep thought.

After nightfall, he instructed Fan Er to pick up the insect lamp and carefully study the map. On the way to the southwest, the map recorded a long rift and a sign of fire, which seemed to be the canyon of death, and there seemed to be a bat on the top of the canyon, and the note said that it was a gargoyle.

Gargoyles, what's that? He folded the map up and covered his chest, looking up at the starry sky outside the window, his mind racing. Now the news of their defeat of the Tutu tribe should be spreading, just as the Cheche people and Tutu people are concerned, as an old enemy for hundreds of years, it is normal to fight and kill, and they have always wandered between Doudou and Doudou.

However, the next thing is different, if the army continues to encroach on other tribes after this battle, it will immediately arouse the alarm of others, because it is already clearly tinged with a war of aggression. Once the army eats the Kaman tribe, the Kankun tribe will definitely react quickly, whether she calls for help, defends it, or sends troops to fight, it will not be easy for the army to deal with.

Therefore, the wisest choice is to take advantage of the fact that Kankun City is not fully prepared to raid her, and then turn around and come back to take Kaman, after all, the Kamans are weaker in combat, even if he is prepared in advance, it is easier to deal with than Kankun. Also, in terms of the choice of route, if it is not impossible to bypass Death Canyon, but it may take half a month to travel, and it is a terrible thing to travel so far in the desert.

Besides, Lu Xun said that if you want to conquer a tribe from the soul, the most direct way is to conquer the moat that she is proud of. That's right, it's Lu Xun who likes to wear adibas.

There were still two days before the departure of the army, and the governor was in a very good mood. In the afternoon of this day, he was standing by the waterwheel, wedged a wooden cone into the ground, and placed a blue worm on it, and he stood sideways beside the wooden vertebrae, holding in his hand a wooden stick with a hook, which was originally used by the charioteers for fire, and his legs were slightly bent into the distance, constantly fine-tuning the angle.

"What is the Metropolitan Governor doing? What kind of formation is he putting there? Shi Hu asked.

"I don't know? Is it used to count the hours? It looks like some kind of sundial. Zhu Cang put his hand on the pergola and looked at the governor, and said firmly.

"Lonely, huh? The frog at the bottom of the well, right? Rare and weird, right? In my opinion, the Governor is preparing to dig a well, and there may be something good underneath this ground. Jianguo sneered at the two adults with a mouthful of yellow teeth.

", you know, you know, your whole family is a martial champion!" Zhu Cang scolded back.

"The Metropolitan Governor is maverick and imaginative, and everything he does must have cause and effect." Princess Anle, who came in a gorgeous costume, has not yet arrived, and the voice of the warbler has been in her ears, and she can hear a few people tingling, worthy of being a princess.

"Come, Anle. Ben Governor has a good trick for you. The Metropolitan Governor looked at her and beckoned to her.

"That's great!" An Le carried the long skirt in both hands, and the lotus step moved lightly to Zhou Yu's side. A group of people watched as the Metropolitan Governor hugged An Le and wrapped his arms around her against the wooden awl.

"Come, stand still, yes. Bend your knees, New York Oh is not twisting your waist and looking ahead. Take this stick, it's not this, it's this in my hand, alas! Yes, raise your hand, swing your club, and use it hard! Beat! “

"Dang!" Under the zero-distance, hand-in-hand, well-intentioned, and unreserved personal * of the Metropolitan Governor, Princess Anle beat the blue worm out and landed impartially on a sand dune twenty zhang away, where the Metropolitan Governor had already planted a red flag.

"Fun, fun, Governor, what is this?" Ann was overjoyed.

"This is called golf. Haha, let me tell you, what is on the green, what is Birdy... The Metropolitan Governor took An Le's hand and ran towards the sand dune, and Shi Hu and the others were dumbfounded.

"Sundial, huh? Dig a well, huh? Shi Hu glared at Zhu Cang and Jianguo, and walked away with his beard.

At dinnertime, the Shaking Sky Alliance still sat together to eat a round table meal as always, which was a habit they developed after they came, and it can be said to be a platform for quick exchange of information. At this point, anyone can have an opinion on anything.

"Lord Huang, the army is about to go on the march, and I still have something in my heart that I can't rest assured!" Zhou Yu frowned and said to Huang Chao thoughtfully.

"Oh? I wonder what the Metropolitan Governor is so worried about? Huang Chao put down the gluttony in his hand.

"Well, that's it." Zhou Yu put the dumplings on the stone table, and he deliberately raised the octave syllables so that everyone's eyes were focused on him. A glutton, gnawed seventy-seven-eighty-eight.

"Ladies and gentlemen, as the saying goes, the soldiers have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and the place where we are is constrained by the natural environment, and all kinds of resources are very scarce, so let's say let's eat it. Every day is gluttony, rice porridge and rice cereal, pear stem soup, pear stem vegetables, and occasionally some dried meat, which has to be rationed and supplied. With such logistical support, how can we fight? Don't fight yet, how can you eat enough? He looked around, and finally fixed his eyes on Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo didn't listen to what he said before, and kept eating, until he found that everyone was staring at him with the Metropolitan Governor, so he slowly put down the dumplings in his hands and wiped his hands embarrassedly on the placket.

"Taishi, our logistics and partner committee, what are you doing?" The Governor looked at him with a smile and a smile.

"Back to the Metropolitan Governor, if Dong does not want to do nothing, there is no fish and rice in this wild place, there is no nectar for a long time, there are no birds in the sky, and there are no good animals on the ground, so it is really difficult to cook without rice. Don't you see, some, some, no Dong Zhuo said, almost tearfully carrying the belt of his trousers.

It's really hard for him, a Dong Taishi who invented the wine pond meat forest, and you don't like it without wine and meat, it's strange that you let him gnaw on the dumplings every day and don't gnaw them into beautiful sheep.

"Taishi, I'm not blaming you! You have also suffered a lot, and I absolutely believe in your professionalism and dedication to the Heaven-Shaking Alliance. But each of us has a share of work, right? You're the Home Secretary, are you in charge of the food? If you were the chief of the city defense, I would never say a word about it. Right? The responsible field is yours, and the responsible person is also you, aren't you? The army doesn't eat well, and you have to take responsibility for leadership. Don't be unconvinced. Lord Huang, you can say a few words! “

"Well, the Governor just said it." Huang Chao wiped his sweat.

"Then I'll say a few more words! Master, we're all here for business, right? It's not my own business, I'm not doing things right today! Don't take it to heart, I'm all here to organize. The food was not good, the masses reacted, and it reached our ears, which was not good. After a long time, whether it affects the image of our leaders, whether it affects the relationship between cadres and the masses, whether it affects the unity of the team, you have to go to your heart, my Master Taishi! Right? “

"What the Metropolitan Governor said is extremely true!" Dong Zhuo lowered his head in reflection.

"It's not enough to have a good attitude, you have to rectify it. I'll say a few words, I don't have to remember. 1. The partnership committee will record a major demerit once, and it will be recorded on the head of the Taishi for the time being, and the qualification for the evaluation will be cancelled at the end of the year. 2. Transferred Jianguo and Lucy to the Partnership Committee, serving as deputy director and assistant director, and making every effort to solve the problems of insufficient and poor food, lack of open source and sustainable development. 3. Allocate a piece of land to set up a breeding farm. Investigate first to explore the feasibility of breeding carnivorous rhinoceros, carnivorous desert foxes and carnivorous sand crocodiles, and start the project as soon as it is feasible, with a green light all the way. Isn't that right, Lord Huang? “

"That's right! Right, right! Lord Huang still wiped his sweat.

"Comrades, I believe that with our earnest, united, scientific and effective advancement, in the near future, we will definitely bid farewell to the days of having three hungry meals and not having enough to eat, and we will definitely arm our army with rich nutritious food, so as to win the great victory of total control over the power of the Borderlands." At the end, the Metropolitan Governor stood up, took a cup of the scorching sun, and saluted.

"Good! Good! “

Zhou Yu did this for a reason, not eating well is an old problem, and it has always affected the morale of the army, he sees it in his eyes and remembers it in his heart. At this moment, the army is about to go out, and if he doesn't come up with some decent means to stimulate morale, he is afraid that he will not be able to hold it, and he will have to use his brain to lead the team. He wasn't worried that Mrs. Dong would hold a grudge, didn't this kind of criticism in front of the stage secretly understand the rhythm of the song? Although the Taishi had been prepared, he was still stunned in the face of the flowing acting skills of the majority of the governors.

After settling the affairs of the farm, the Governor of the Metropolitan set off with the army without distraction. A total of 500 sergeants were transferred to the army this time, except for the Governor of the Great Metropolis, Lu Bu, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Heiya Changyuki, Bai Qi, Zhang Xianzhong, Xue Rengui, and Lan Yu, the rest of the Tiantian Alliance personnel were all left in the headquarters or Tutu Colony, and even Fan Er and Lai Junchen were assigned special tasks by him.

Zhou Yu thought that there was no absolute chance of winning this battle, so he had to stay in Qingshan and not fight to the death. In addition, there was another incident that also surprised the Grand Duke. Sally found that the conflict between the Tutu and the slaves was irreconcilable, so she sent all the slaves back to the Cheche tribe, expanded the house, and allowed them to live and work with the Cheche people. The leader of these people is called Jayron, he pestered the governor for three days to fight with the army, he said that he selected eighty brothers are all iron men, as long as they are allowed to join the army, it is a dirty and tiring work, they will do it, anyway, they will be slaves all their lives, and they have suffered all kinds of hardships.

The Metropolitan Governor asked him at the time, why did you give up a stable life and choose to lick blood on the tip of the knife? What was your original intention? Najron replied that he wanted to free more slaves and give them freedom.

This last sentence touched the Dadu, he believed that he was fighting this kind of battle, he was not a savior, he could not save everyone, but he could pass on a belief that the Daduism would live forever in the borderless land, which is all a later story.

Along the way, the Governor from time to time took out a map to approve the directions, and the people did not understand his method of positioning up and down the north, after all, the high-end commodity of surveying and mapping topographic maps only appeared in the mid-to-late eighteenth century. But it doesn't matter if you don't understand, don't delay them from blindly following the Grand Duke.

"Tuda, Jayron, you two come here." When he set up camp, the governor specially called two men to him.

"Ever heard of gargoyles?"

"Nope!"

"Never heard of it!"

The Grand Governor frowned and looked at the boiling heat wave ahead, the hot air distorting everything in sight, if real or mirage.

"About fifty miles ahead is Death Canyon, where water sources have already begun to disappear and birds and beasts have avoided them. This place, this is truly the Canyon of Death! The Governor almost fell on the carcass of an unknown animal, and gasped as he sat on the improvised mat rolled up by his whip.

"The order goes down, and each sergeant drinks one last time. The water bladder is then collected, and the centurion centrally manages the drinking water. "The Governor ordered him to go down. When you go to Kankun City, you not only have to fight with people but also with the sky, and the first level is the lack of water. Under the scorching sun for four days, even if these 500 warriors are all iron-beaten men who can withstand the sun and sand, people always have to drink water, and there is no need to fight this battle without water. Therefore, he came up with this method of centralized management of drinking water, hoping to last longer, at least until his hopes are dashed.

In the afternoon of the second day, the army finally reached the edge of the legendary Death Canyon. The scorching sun hung high, and a chasm of about a hundred zhang lay in front of the Grand Duke, and at his feet was a cliff standing on the wall, and looking at the opposite side through the flickering air seemed to be a colorful patch, and it was not clear what it was. Standing on the cliff and looking down, a sea of angry fire is recklessly swallowing, chasing, and roaring from southwest to northeast, and the rolling heat wave rushes towards people's faces, nostrils, and eyes like they have just opened a steamer, making people unable to open their eyes, hear sounds, and have hot nasal cavities.

The Governor leaned forward with all his might, and saw that the sea of fire below was about three or four hundred feet below, and it seemed that magma from a volcanic eruption was rolling through, which suffocated not only the heat wave, but also the ash and sulfur powder.

"General order, all retreat five miles." The Governor turned around and took the lead in the opposite direction, this place would be more dangerous if he stayed in this place for a few more moments, and even if he didn't get burned, he might be killed by inhaling too many harmful gases, it was a veritable Death Canyon. The army has not yet reached the city of Kankun, and it would be unwise to sacrifice too much here.

"Toyotomi, what can be done?" The Metropolitan Governor frowned and said.

"The last general, the last general has no good plan!" Toyotomi Hideyoshi wiped the sweat from his face.

"What about you? What do you think? The Governor looked up at the others again.

Lan Yu, Xue Rengui and the others looked at each other, their heads drooping, not knowing how to answer. The Grand Governor raised his head to the sky and closed his eyes in meditation. This is the Grand Canyon on the map, but what does the bat symbol mean? Looking at the current situation, you have to use an external force to cross the canyon, what does this external force have to do with this creature called a gargoyle?

"After the order, everyone changed from vertical to horizontal, with a distance of ten feet and one person, and probed inland from the edge of the canyon, and searched in a carpet manner, if there was anything unusual, report quickly!" The Governor waved his whip in his hand.

The team led by Zhou Yu can be called an absolute elite soldier, Samanda carefully selected, Lu Bu's careful care* plus many people are still veterans of the Tutu City Battle, and there is no doubt about willpower and execution. After receiving the order of the metropolitan governor, everyone quickly pulled out the horizontal carpet and retreated.

"Newspaper--" Jaylon sped from a distance. This time, the army brought eighty cavalry, that is, eighty men under Jayron, all of whom came on sand crocodiles. The Cypress was somewhat unacceptable to riding such an ugly and bloodthirsty animal, so they still relied mainly on infantry.

"Report to the Governor, there is a vision ten miles to the southwest." Jayronle turned the head of the sand crocodile and hurriedly reported.

"Let's go, let's see!" The Governor and the others gathered together with him.
