Chapter 717: Poplar Forest
You got the order, hurriedly collected the troops, in fact, they didn't want to delay here at all, everything in front of them, people felt too frightened, if the pig Polong really attacked them, the consequences must be miserable, everyone immediately went forward.
It stands to reason that they can see Wang Du today, but the strange thing is that they haven't seen it at all, which makes them feel incredible, Wen Ziyu said one hundred and one times: "No, no, you can't go forward recklessly, since there is no problem with our direction, there is a problem with everything here." ”
"Lord Wang, please let me go with Shi Shenshu to take a look around."
"It's not the best place to set up camp, but you should go early and come back early." He said.
Wen Ziyu's dark eyes flickered, like stars in the sky—"Yes, yes." Wen Ziyu and Shi Shenshu rode out of here, and now, his eyes wandered around and took in everything.
"Report!"
The vanguard officer next to him hurriedly knelt in front of Emperor Yan.
"What?" At all times, under all circumstances, as if he had always been so calm, he looked at the pioneer officer on horseback, and the beads of sweat on the vanguard officer's forehead, like the size of soybeans, rolled down one by one.
"Report ...... Just now, the last general found that someone destroyed all the places that could be camped in front of them, and they cut off the poplar forest by the roots, according to the villain, that was last night's thing, Lord Wang, you and the last general went to see. ”
Sure enough, the scene he least wanted to see was happening and brewing.
His back stiffened, he took a deep breath and nodded—"Okay, let's take a look." When Emperor Yan sealed the front, he found that this was also a poplar forest, but the poplar tree had already been uprooted, and the dying poplar tree collapsed in the yellow sand, like a half-paralyzed patient.
In the Gobi Desert, the wind and sand are relatively strong, and the strong wind blows the exposed roots of the tree dry, loses its moisture, and the tree is already dying.
"Report ......" In the distance, Wen Ziyu and Shi Shenshu also came-"Report ...... Report ......"
It was rare to see Shi Shenshu have a face similar to panic, but now it was different, he obviously saw Shi Shenshu in front of him like this, and the fear on that face made people tremble.
"How!" Yan Difeng found that his voice was also very low and dry.
"All the poplar forests along the way have uprooted them, without the poplar forests, there will be no water source here, and there will be no life, they will die with us, if we win this battle, we will return, we will die in this Gobi desert."
"If we lose, they will expel us, and now the last general has found their royal capital, just ahead."
"The king knows." Now, everyone was shocked when they saw the death of the poplar wood, in fact, this is what Yan Difeng has always feared the most, they are small countries and widows, in order not to be a prisoner of defeat, they do everything, knowing that it is their own commanders who rely on the encirclement and suppression, and everyone has put them to death quickly.
"Lord Wang, without the big tree, the water here will soon evaporate, this is their gift to us."
"We'll take it all." Emperor Yan said while looking into the distance, it turned out that the poplar forest he saw before was just a little star, and gradually approached the royal capital, and the poplar forest he saw became luxuriant, and the crown of the tree became very huge.
Now, Emperor Yan finally understands why they will condescend here, because this king is not very bad, from here, you can see that in the distance in a piece of yellow sand, there are all kinds of strange buildings, that must be the royal capital.
The buildings are lined up one after another, just like mushrooms after a rain, lush stars are scattered in the distance, seeing this, Emperor Yan is a little relieved, after all, they are not going in the wrong direction, after all, everything in front of them is real and credible.
"Lord Wang, you ...... See ......"
Shi Shenshu looked at the poplar wood on the ground, before, there was no pity for the poplar wood, but this way, the poplar wood is very rare, as if the elders are standing in the distance to guide them, the so-called rare is expensive, although this is not their territory, but seeing someone so violent, Shi Shenshu's fist couldn't help but clench.
"They're going to cut us off, and they want us to get out of here now, or they'll die with us." Emperor Yan had already seen what they meant.
"So, what are we supposed to do?" Next to him, he sighed hard.
"This, we can only wait and see."
"What does the prince mean, we have to drive straight in?"
"Maybe, they didn't mean to let us go at all, now, we need to adjust ourselves, maybe this king doesn't want to fight at all."
"Lord, ...... you" Shi Shenshu suspected that he was having auditory hallucinations, "What do you say, if there is no war, what are we going to do here?"
"Now you'll know what to do, now, take off your armor, gather all our weapons, and we'll go to the city to have a look."
"Lord Wang, you ...... What nonsense are you talking about? Shi Shenshu raised his eyebrows in disbelief, looked at him dumbfounded, and couldn't imagine that Emperor Yan couldn't help but smile - "Shenshu, I can't understand this with you, just carry out the order, I'll talk to Wen Ziyu, and he will touch the bypass." ”
"Whatever you say, whatever you say." Shi Shenshu said as he looked at Emperor Yan, and Emperor Yan smiled.
Wen Ziyu really came to Yan Di Feng, and Yan Di Feng knew that Wen Ziyu and his hero saw the same thing, and he also expressed his own views and thoughts.
"Lord Wang, they are going to cut off our back road, if this is the case, what does it matter if we win the war and lose?"
"So, let's not fight this time, the right is to make friends, second, Ziyu, what do you think is the special meaning of taking this place for yourself?"
"Lord Wang, this is a barren land, I can't avoid it, if it weren't for the natives, ordinary outsiders, how could I make a mistake here."
"You see, you also know that if we capture this place, not only will it not be good for us, but we will also lose our troops, so let's just pass by now." Wen Ziyu was enlightened.
Everyone received an order from Shi Shenshu to ask the generals to put away their weapons and take off their armor, and everyone looked at each other, completely unaware of what Shi Shenshu meant.
But everyone had already done it, and after the joy of Ge Yi, the officers and soldiers looked disgraced, and everyone rode on horseback, walked on foot, walked all the way, and finally entered Yuezhi City before noon.
In this city, it is quiet, like a ruin, to go inside, except for some old and weak women and children, there are no elite people, in fact, Yan Difeng already knows, those elite and young people have already been ambushed in the surroundings, they threw themselves into the net, should have panicked, but he, but he was idle.
"Today, everyone is scattered here, there is no need to point out, but don't clash with the people here, don't take a stitch from them, otherwise, military law will deal with it."
"Yes." Everyone was even more confused than before, and they didn't know what Emperor Yan meant at all, but they could only follow Emperor Yan's orders, and everyone dispersed, you do your thing, I do my thing.
On weekdays, they perform their duties, but now everything is different, everyone went out in groups of three or five to play, Emperor Yan was like the son of a high-ranking official and nobleman, and Wen Ziyu and even Shi Shenshu were looking for an inn.
As if everyone was reluctant to receive them, Shi Shenshu stared at the copper bell with big eyes, his eyebrows were like a sharp sword, and he was about to reason with others, but Wen Ziyu and Emperor Yan Feng, but with a smile from the spring breeze, the silver in Emperor Yan's hand had already fallen on the table of the shopkeeper.
