Chapter 60 Proper Planning

Fang Huo said, "Brother, this matter is indeed caused by our Fang Zhu. If my father hadn't trapped you at that time, you wouldn't have been involved in this dispute, and you might not have been in such a situation even if you had passed through Murome Castle. I do think it's a shame not to go, so let's send someone with you. ”

"No, I don't. Ding Qin's expression at this time was less worried than before, and his tone obviously became resolutely affirmative. "I don't need you to go. I understand your intentions, but if you go, it will make the people of Muromei City think that I am with you all the way. Actually, I'm just doing something for my own team. We will go on our own, so we won't trouble you. ”

Fang Huo's expression was extremely embarrassed, "That's ...... That ......"

Ding Qin said, "Our wounded still need to be treated, and it will take a few days before I leave." During this time, I will think about it. You don't have to dwell on this matter, after all, there are still a lot of things you need to complete in Fangzhu City now. ”

Fang Huo nodded, "That's good." It's up to you. What is the need to just say. ”

...............................................................................................................

Three days later.

The wounded in Ding Qin's team have basically recovered from minor injuries, and those who are seriously injured have been able to get out of bed and walk out of the dangerous period. After calculating the days, Ding Qin discussed with Feng Lei and prepared to set off.

He didn't want to be here for too long. After all, there is still a long road ahead, and I don't know what kind of situation will come my way.

Before leaving, he deliberately said goodbye to Fang Huo. Fang Huo wanted to express some of Fang Zhucheng's intentions, but Ding Qin refused except for some necessary supplies.

Fat Dun has been with his son Xiaopang these days. Come to think of it, Fat Dun came to find his son, and now that he has found it, he probably won't go with him anymore. Ding Qin also went to look at it and told it the news that it was about to leave.

What I didn't expect was that Fat Dun actually followed Ding Qin step by step, obviously wanting to follow him.

Ding Qin was very surprised. He looked at Chubby and asked Chubby, "So, what about your child?"

Chubby turned around and made some noises in his throat at Chubby. Chubby kept shrinking back at this time, and he didn't have to follow his mother to leave.

Fat Dun walked over slowly, biting Chubby's ear with his teeth, as if trying to take it away. But Xiaopang resolutely refused, and slowly retreated behind Fang Huo.

Fat Dun was stunned for a moment, and then looked up at the house fire.

The house fire was also quite unexpected. He squatted down and touched Chubby's head, "If you want to go, just follow your mother." ”

Chubby shook his head and bit Fang Huo's trouser leg directly.

Fat Dun was stunned in place for a moment. Finally, she also turned around and walked to Ding Qin's feet.

This is the choice of two demon wolves.

Although they are not human, it can be seen that they have similar thoughts as humans.

And even for animals, the two of them decided to separate in order to choose two different owners, which is a bit sad.

Ding Qin closed his eyes slightly and gently pinched his nose with his hand. After that, he turned around and said, "Let's go." ”

Feng Lei didn't speak, and followed closely.

Fang Huo was behind them, watching them leave, without stepping to send.

When he was about to walk out of the dungeon, there was a slightly immature wolf howl from behind him.

Fat Dun was stunned for a moment, then stopped, turned around, and screamed. Then, the two wolves never made any sound again, as if they had never met.

Walking out of the dungeon, the line was already waiting in a neat line. The seriously injured were supported by a special person, and stretchers were prepared. Since they don't walk too fast in the desert, they don't cause much drag.

Ding Qin looked at the map and handed it to Feng Lei, "It's better for you to lead the way." I have no experience in marching in the desert. Under your command, I can rest assured. ”

Feng Lei nodded, "Okay." He looked at the map again, "I'll follow the map, making sure as I go." Although the Longyang Ancient Road has been marked on this, for the sake of insurance, I still have to check it at intervals. ”

Ding Qin said, "Okay, come according to your plan." Let's go. ”

As soon as Feng Lei stretched out his hand and pointed forward, the team began to walk towards the outside of Fangzhu City. When they walked out for a mile or so, at the highest point of the broken wall of Fangzhu City, they saw Fang Huo and Xiaopang come up, and they stood there and watched them go away until they disappeared from view.

The map provided by Fang Huo is indeed relatively accurate. With its help, the team was able to move much faster than originally expected.

However, as they walked deeper and deeper into the desert, the harsh environment was slowing them down. Ding Qin couldn't help but think that the people of Mumei City rushed over so far and had to go through a death test in the Great Desert every year, just to try to defeat the people of Fangzhucheng and obtain the King of Wuzhuguo, it has to be said that it was also a rare courage and persistence.

A month may seem like a short time in normal times, but walking all the way in the desert seems like a long time. The faces of all the people in the group were tanned, and if they accidentally exposed some of the places covered by their clothes, they immediately formed a stark contrast.

"About thirty miles ahead, you should enter the territory of Muromei City, which is marked by the house fire. When Feng Lei was resting in the team, he took the map and showed it to Ding Qin.

Ding Qin took it and put it on his lap. The map is not too clearly marked with Muromei City, including the surrounding quicksand area, which is only a general mark, and some places are marked with question marks. "It seems that they don't know much about Muromei City. ”

Feng Lei nodded, "I asked the people from Fang Zhucheng in private. They had only been here a long time ago, so the signs were unknown. It's not like Muromei City, he goes to attack Fangzhu City every year, and he knows the situation around Fangzhu City well. ”

Ding Qin exhaled slowly, "How is our supplies going now?"

Feng Lei said, "The supplies are sufficient. Ever since Fat Dun joined us, he's been helping us hunt. We are strictly rationed, so there is a surplus at every meal. Now, even if it is no longer replenished, it is enough for us to consume half a month. However, drinking water has been relatively scarce. ”

Ding Qin looked at his team, "If we enter Muromei City as a reinforcement from Fangzhu City, I'm afraid there will be no return." And with such a large team, it is estimated that it will not be able to get around. So I have an idea. Sort through our supplies and see what we can sell. When the time comes, dress up as a caravan. ”

"Caravan?" Feng Lei was a little surprised by Ding Qin's statement, "In the desert, such a large-scale caravan is also rare. ”

Ding Qin said, "Rare doesn't mean no, as long as we have a good reason." I took a look, and there was a city four or five hundred miles west of Murome City, and there were three post stations on the edge of the city. This is one of the main access roads to the imperial capital. Here, there should be frequent caravans. And if the caravan gets lost in this vicinity and goes in the opposite direction, it will come straight to Murome Castle. ”

Feng Lei looked at the map, and the expression on his face was a little unconvinced. "But can a caravan travel four or five hundred miles in the desert?"

"Ordinary teams can't, but caravans can. Ding Qin said, "The caravan looks at what is being sold." If we were originally a caravan selling food, it would be too possible. It just so happens that we don't lack provisions. And,"

Ding Qin pointed to the map and said, "If we go around Muromei City, it will be easier to attract their attention. Regardless of whether Muromei City is a ruin or an oasis, any team that doesn't know about its existence should naturally go and see it. Therefore, going to Muromei City is our safest choice. ”

After Ding Qin said this, Feng Lei had an epiphany. "Yes, yes, yes. This method is good. At that time, in the melee, I guess no one remembered what we looked like. And we're all tanned again. However, the two people who fought alone with us were an exception. ”

Ding Qin said, "We just need to go in and out quickly, and don't stay in the room." There we can sell some of our supply, mainly with more water. It's just that the part of the road out of Muromei is more troublesome because it is necessary to explore the Longyang Ancient Road. Walking too slowly can also raise suspicion. If only I could get a map with markers. ”

Feng Lei said, "Then when we arrive, let's see if we can find it." He got up and looked at the sun, and gestured with a simple marching ruler, "If we really want to enter the city, then we should go now." In this case, you will be able to get to Murome Castle before dark. ”

Ding Qin shook his head, "No hurry." We are now separated from Murome Castle by several large sand dunes. In other words, we can't see Murome City. In this case, it is impossible for a caravan to rush to the road. So, let's get a little more rest today and go into the city tomorrow. ”

Feng Lei listened, "It makes sense. I've been on the march for so many years, just studying the tactics of marching, but I've never thought about these things. This line of work has benefited me a lot. ”

Ding Qin smiled a little embarrassedly, "Vice General Feng's words make me a little ashamed. It should be that I have learned a lot of things from Vice General Feng. ”

Feng Lei laughed, "Brother, what are the two of us polite?" Okay, according to what you said, let's take a little rest!"

Ding Qin nodded, turned around and shouted, "Fat Dun!"

The fat mound was like a blue light, rushing from the back of the sand dunes not far away.

I don't know since when, Fat Dun took the initiative to take on the vigilance work. It can stand alone and save a lot of manpower and material resources.

Ding Qin touched its head, "Fat Dun, this place is close to Mumei City." The people of Fangzhu City said that the people of Muromei City were good at domesticating demonic beasts. You need to pay more attention to see if there are any monsters around us to detect our whereabouts. If you have one, you can kill it directly. If it's hard to deal with, report it to me in time. ”

Fat Dun snorted a few times in his throat and returned to his original position. Ding Qin took a deep breath and said, "Along the way, Fat Dun has also contributed a lot to us. If one day, life returns to peace, we can't treat it badly. ”

Feng Lei had been thinking about something just now, when he came back to his senses and said, "Ding Qin, I have an idea. ”
