Chapter 148: Desert Killing
Under Qiao Kong's crushing, the whole Mingzhutang had to be convinced, which laid the foundation for Zhao Xingchen to control this fast catching team with a strong reckless spirit.
"Breaking the three levels, Meng Zhen Xihou, his subordinates subdued the famous capture hall, and won the merit value of '10 points'. After finishing speaking, the 10 o'clock cold star fell on Zhao Xingchen's wrist.
"Ahead is the territory of Qilin Village, 36 villages are connected into a piece, a total of 36 hills are occupied, stretching to a land of 15 miles.
There are no less than 100,000 soldiers in Qilin Village, and the total number of villagers is estimated to reach one million.
In this area of more than 100 miles, they are the yamen, the sky, and the earth, and the great boss Ji Xiangdong is the emperor of the soil here.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a lot of masters.
However, the number of people is too small. So, you have to brace yourself and deal with any attacks that may occur. Shan Yang gave the order.
Suddenly, the catchers, including Zhao Xingchen's hundred-member personal guards, were all nervous and on high alert.
"After leaving the Qilin Village, there is a vast desert, so this is the last barrier of the desert.
Merchants will replenish grain, grass and fresh water near here, and merchants here have to pay taxes to Qilin Village.
Therefore, Qilin Village is not poor, they are like our Zhao Kingdom, they have an iron cavalry army, and they also have the experience of fighting in the primeval jungle.
And this is their territory, compared to them, although we are strong.
However, there are many of them, they are familiar with the territory here, and we do not have an advantage. Yu Hai said.
However, everyone was nervous and nervous, but the result was a smooth passage through the Qilin Village.
Zhao Xingchen's mood did not ease at all, but frowned.
"Shuwen, I offended the three of them, and they didn't find fault. You say, is Qilin Village scared?" Zhao Xingchen asked.
"Absolutely not!" Li Shuwen shook his head.
"Your Highness, there is a problem here. Shan Yang said.
"Well, you say come and hear it. Zhao Xingchen asked.
"Someone deliberately let us go smoothly, otherwise, we have more than 300 horses, no matter how we say it, the soldiers of Qilin Village have to come over and ask, right? Shan Yang said.
"To put it simply, they didn't come over to ask us for tolls, which is a bit unbelievable. Li Shuwen snorted.
"Hehe, maybe, it was the Hou Ye who opened the golden mouth, right?" Zhao Xingchen smiled.
Shan Yang glanced at the dark clouds and several famous people, and did not speak again.
After all, there's so much involved. They have also heard some of the remarks about Zhenxi Hou Zhao Tie.
It's just that this involves the affairs of the royal family, how dare they talk nonsense?
"Look, there's the desert ahead. Some catchers pointed ahead excitedly and screamed.
"Ah, that's what the desert looks like, huh?"
"It's great. ”
"It's so beautiful, how can anyone say that the desert is as fierce as a tiger? ”
......
"All stand!" At this moment, Shan raised his hand and waved, and suddenly, the team stopped.
"Don't look at them now, they're beautiful, but they're terrible.
Ladies and gentlemen, there are so many variables in the desert. For example, when the wind comes, the yellow sand is all over the sky, you can't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest.
Also, there are many insects, scorpions, snakes, and poisonous insects in the desert, and you will die if you bite it.
And there are many craters in the desert that you can't see with your eyes.
Once you step on your foot and sink it, it's certain death.
Even ......" Zhao Xingchen confessed with a serious face.
Of course, some of these trappers have also experienced the ferocity of the desert.
However, most of the catchers and guards had seen the desert for the first time, and Zhao Xingchen felt the need to teach them a lesson first.
"Your Highness must have been to the desert!" Shan Yang asked.
"Nope. Zhao Xingchen shook his head and said.
"But Your Highness knows a lot?" asked Dark Cloud Gaiyue.
"I read a lot of books, by the way, Shan Yang, you pick a few people who have been to the desert many times, and tell them about the experience of the desert and the things to pay attention to. Zhao Xingchen said nonsense.
In his previous life, he spent some time in the desert, and when he was a special soldier, he also went through the desert battle.
However, in the previous life, he had excellent equipment, and in this life, he was basically running naked in the desert, and the danger factor naturally increased a lot.
However, compared to his previous life, his martial arts in this life are much stronger.
And Zhao Xingchen had accumulated a lot of necessary items in the mustard seed space in advance, such as water, pills, steamed buns, etc.
Zhao Xingchen can now condense the mustard seed space to reach one zhang and five heights, most of the classroom space, of course, it can hold a lot of items.
However, there is a limitation to the mustard seed space.
That is, you can stuff a lot of things, but the weight is not reduced.
Therefore, your martial arts strength is not strong enough, that is, the mustard seed space can be accommodated, but you may not be able to carry it.
However, Zhao Xingchen was pleasantly surprised to find that the items in the mustard seed space would not rot ****** for example, if you put a piece of fresh tofu in it and move it out after a month, it will still be just out of the pot.
It's just that the mustard seed space can't hold living things, it's simply a super fresh-keeping warehouse.
Li Shuwen and Qiao Kong's are also one meter tall, and the two of them are also stuffed with necessary supplies.
These guards and catchers are not good, and they all carry a sack-sized animal skin bag on their backs.
All the horses were replaced by leopard camels, which are said to have been crossed between cheetahs and camels.
Not only does it inherit the advantages of a cheetah, but it also has the hard-working nature of a camel.
A day passed, and nothing happened, but it was calm.
On the second day, three or two of the guards were bitten and poisoned by poisonous scorpions, and on the third day, they were even more injured.
Zhao Xingchen suddenly waved his hand, and Shan Yang immediately stopped the team.
"Do you say that there are so many poisonous insects and scorpions in the desert?" Zhao Xingchen asked.
"I also think it's a little weird, as if I'm walking more and more, I've been to the desert many times before, but I've never encountered this situation, could someone have done it?" said Dark Cloud Gaiyue.
"Yu Hai, how many ways are there to get to Moon City?" Zhao Xingchen asked.
"Two roads, one will pass through the ghost river, although that road is two or three hundred miles closer, but it is very terrifying, so we won't take that road.
We are now taking a road that merchants often take, moving around the Peacock River.
One is that water is secure, and the other is relatively safe. ”
Yu Haide came forward, took out the map and pointed and said.
"The other party estimates that even if we are right, it is better for us to change the route and take the road of the Ghost River. Shan Yang said.
"What kind of bullshit ghost river, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that there are really ghosts in this world, master, just go to the ghost river. Qiao Kong said.
"It's possible that this is the other side's purpose. Zhao Xingchen said.
"Your Highness is right, the other party got some poisonous snakes and poisonous scorpions, so as to force us to go to the ghost river and set up an ambush. Li Shuwen followed.
"But both paths are possible, and this one clearly indicates that the opponent has already set up an ambush, and the ghost river road may be relatively dangerous. Of course, the horror of Ghost River is notoriously terrifying. Shan Yang said.
"Then take the Ghost River. Zhao Xingchen made a decision, so the team turned to the west.
In the evening, a black line came quickly in the distance.
"Everyone listen to the order, quickly find a sheltered place to lie down!" Zhao Xingchen saw it and hurriedly shouted.
"Your Highness, it's not windy yet, isn't it better to hurry more?" Shan Yang asked.
"Isn't that the wind? It's coming soon, find a place to take shelter from the wind immediately, and kill those who resist the order!" Zhao Xingchen pointed to the distance and nodded, and then said domineeringly.
