XIII. Lonely Smoke in the Desert (1)

The desert yellow sand is all over the sky, the dilapidated official road is rolling torrents are advancing rapidly, it is the morning, the sky is already mighty, the scorching sun shines down, everyone's face is red, but there is not a drop of sweat on the body, the gown is full of white salt, I didn't expect to march in a hurry from the early morning before dawn, only a few hours, the sun is still half oblique, it has been vicious like this.

Although the military discipline is strict, and the formation has not been scattered, if these people, especially those from the Jingzhong Banner, do not speak, it is really more difficult than killing them, and there is a person who walks fast under his feet, and his mouth is also fast: "My God, isn't this the Flame Mountain that Tang Seng and his apprentices have visited!" It's already August low, why is it still so hot," he shook the kettle in his hand vigorously, "If I hadn't reminded you, I wouldn't have half a drop of water left here!" ”

"Yes," the other accosting person had a red face and his lips were already cracked, "these rebels, since we left the Yumen Pass, they are not ready to fight us head-on, they think in their hearts, I am afraid that they will wait for us to march, exhausted by the sun, come out to fight the autumn wind, take advantage!" ”

"It's his big dream of spring and autumn!" The man said disdainfully, and suddenly, a burst of feathered arrows flew in front of him, and although one of them was shot at him, it was because of the great distance, and the strength was exhausted, and the man with the broken mouth was startled, and he drew his bow and arrows behind him, and bent his bow and arrows, ready to fight back.

"Enemy attack!" The team suddenly scattered a little, and the leader of the team drew his knife, stared at the left and right of the official road, and found that there were some alien-looking people wearing yellow robes and holding scimitars in their hands, riding horses, shouting and killing

There were also a few sporadic gunshots, "These garbage things, here again!" The banner soldier who bent the bow and arrows was furious, he was made fun of by his comrades in a hurry just now, the flag man cared most about his face, the flag man soldier aimed at a person who rushed to the front, let go of his hands, and the feather arrow flew into the air, and with a lightning thud, it hit the man's calf.

The blood stains suddenly spilled out, stained with yellow robes, these people didn't need the infantry to go out at all, bang bang, the musketeers of the firearms battalion came out of their horses, lined up in three columns, and in a few breaths, they had already let those people drop a few corpses and shout and retreat.

The army did not divide the troops to chase, but went to retrieve the corpse, and placed it on the edge of the official road, a cyan Haidongqing spread its wings and flew high in the air, looked at the battle at this end, faced the scorching hot wind, and flew towards the back of the long snake-like team, a roar of eagles, the body swooped, and fell into the hands of a middle-aged general riding a yellow horse.

Monk Greenqin took a piece of fresh meat out and threw it to Hai Dongqing on his elbow, Hai Dongqing immediately flew to the cage behind to rest after eating, at this time the soldier who reported the news also arrived, and told the small-scale encounter ahead, Monk Greenqin did not say a word, waved his hand to let the herald retreat, the army continued to move forward, after half an hour, to a stone forest, the army suspended and rested, lit a fire to cook, and waited until noon when the most poisonous time passed, and then opened.

Monk Greenqin sat in the tent and closed his eyes and was silent, Wu Yundi walked in, his head and face were full of yellow sand, wiped a handful, and said to Monk Greenqin, "Boss, the weather is still so hot, I am afraid that this daytime march is not very good, and there are more and more people suffering from heat stroke in the army." ”

Monk Greenqin nodded, "I also have this plan, when I set off early today, when I get to Shimen County, take a rest, march at night, rest during the day, and now I am out of Yumen Pass," Monk Greenqin let out a long breath, "I will arrive at Agubai's lair, and you must be cautious at all times." ”

"Yes, Dashuai, there have always been two ways to enter Xinjiang, the north and south Xinjiang are separated, Dashuai, now that we have arrived in Xinjiang, you see, how should we go?"

"Agubai's base is in Kashgar, and the north and south of Xinjiang can be passed, and now we are here again, just to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and leave no troubles, here, we are not familiar with the place, if we just go all the way into Xinjiang, we are afraid that Agubai will not be able to beat us head-on, and we will be broken into pieces and scattered elsewhere, will it be difficult for our army to stay in Xinjiang for a few years?" Monk Greenqin was a little helpless, this is all the tricks of the thieves, Lin Fengxiang and the Twist Army back then relied on running around like this for a long time, it was still in the mainland, in this place, they were like dragons into the sea. "If Aguba is a Muslim uprising, if he can't be destroyed at once, he will definitely be blown and reborn like a weed, and we can only rely on a large army to plow the fields."

"If Agubai escapes into Russia, it will not be possible, as long as he is still in Xinjiang and China, don't expect to be able to escape, beat the drum and raise the tent," Monk Lingqin said to the Chinese general, "I have passed the Yumen Pass, how to go next, plan carefully!" (To be continued.) )
