After there were no pursuers, Mu Qianmei and their marching pressure was much less, and the long line was marching in the prairie without hurry, and there were occasional bursts of hearty laughter in the ranks.

Especially the team brought by Lin Zhiqiu, many of them are still in the prairie for the first time, under the blue sky and white clouds, the endless prairie always makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Mu Qianmei followed Tana and the military advisor, listening to Tana slowly talk about the history of the prairie and the current situation all the way.

The wonderful stories were told by Tana, and Mu Qianmei was fascinated by it, flashing in her mind scene by scene like a movie screen, which also had a unique flavor.

After traveling day and night, he finally came to the foot of a large mountain on the morning of the third day, which was the Yunlong Mountain Range on the border between the Southern Tang Kingdom and the Yunyu Kingdom marked on the map.

The Yunlong Mountain Range is continuous and winding, like a flying dragon driving the clouds, circling around the edge of the grassland, the front can not see the head, the back can not see the tail, the people at the foot of the mountain are under endless pressure, standing at the foot of the mountain, even if the team of 20,000 horses and horses, it seems so insignificant, making people feel small.

At the foot of the mountain there is a clear and quiet river, and because of the gentle terrain, the water flows very slowly, and if you don't look closely, you can hardly see which way the water is flowing.

Mu Qianmei looked up at the mountain, and together with Tana, she carefully compared the map with the actual terrain, looking for the specific location of the treasure identified on the map.

"Although it has gone through 20 years of historical changes, I don't think the changes here are very big! I don't know how my father found this place and buried the treasure in secret. ”

Mu Qianmei said curiously.

"Yes, such a huge project, it is said that there will be a lot of movement, right, how did the secrecy work be done?"

Tana said puzzled.

The military advisor was on the side, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped, not knowing whether to tell them his speculation or not.

Tana just saw it, and said softly:

"Do you know, Strategist? There are no outsiders here, so you can talk about it, and let us solve the doubts in our hearts. ”

Only then did the military advisor boldly say:

"How exactly did it happen, I'm just guessing, with past experience and similar legends, there must be more than just treasures buried here, and there is also a group of burial laborers inside."

"Oh!"

"Huh?"

Tana and Mu Qianmei couldn't help but let out an exclamation one after another, the difference was that Tana was a sudden exclamation, while Mu Qianmei was a surprised exclamation.

"How can it be so cruel?"

Mu Qianmei asked bluntly.

"Actually, it is not cruel, and the people who are usually sent to carry out such a task are either the most vicious death row prisoners or prisoners of war. And when they were sent to dig such a treasure cave, they didn't know what it was for, and they didn't know that it was their grave. Most people just think that it's a special kind of labor, or something like a military facility to be built. ”

"Maybe they don't know what this place is for until they die, so no more people know about it except for the emperor and a few cronies."

"In the sudden change of the situation back then, your father's cronies are almost dead, and now the people who know this place are probably the only ones left with your father!"

The military advisor told his guess in detail, and with his experience and wisdom, such a guess is probably not far from ten.

"Well, what's the trouble?"

Mu Qianmei couldn't help but snort again

Sigh.

"Actually, some things seem to have their own certainty, if it weren't for this batch of treasures, your father might not have escaped back then, and without this batch of treasures, the current situation would definitely be even more difficult."

"So, how can we tell what is right and wrong?"

Tana said thoughtfully.

"Yes, it's come to this, it's over, it's useless to say more, now we can only deal with this matter according to the current situation. By the way, Aunt Tana, you see, the treasure marked on our map is near the top of the mountain, under that steep cliff, and now it looks like there is no different from the rest of the place, it is all woods! ”

Mu Qianmei pointed to a forest halfway up the mountain and said.

"Yes, it should be there, for twenty years, and no one can see any difference between it and other places. We put 15,000 men down there and take 5,000 people up the hill to dig, what do you think, Fluttershy? ”

Tana said her suggestion and asked Mu Qianmei for advice.

"Well, just do as Aunt Tana says!"

Mu Qianmei thought for a moment and immediately replied.

So, she called Liu Tingfeng, Chaolu and Agoura, and asked Chaolu and Agora to lead the troops at the bottom of the mountain, and asked Liu Tingfeng to take 5,000 people to go up the mountain with them.

Chaolu and Agula immediately ordered to rest on the spot and prepare to cook on the stove.

Only five thousand more trustworthy and strong soldiers were singled out, and Liu Tingfeng led them there.

The accompanying soldiers did not know the purpose of their trip, but although they were puzzled, they did not dare to ask more, and they just obeyed the orders.

On the other side, Zhang Xiaoting led 5,000 elite soldiers to march lightly, and they also happened to arrive at Snow City.

After listening to the detailed reports of his subordinates in all aspects, Zhang Xiaoting fell into deep thought.

Among the many pieces of news, the one he was most interested in was how the troops of the cranes in the clouds who came back from the grassland came back in batches, and what happened to the part of the detour?

Thinking of the crane in the clouds, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, isn't the reason why this person is still alive is because of a treasure?

Could it be that they are there to dig up treasure?

Zhang Xiaoting made a bold guess.

The more he thought about it, the more he thought it was very likely, but he didn't say what he thought.

A group of subordinates all stood quietly aside, looking at Zhang Xiaoting's unpredictable expression, and they didn't know what he was thinking, everyone didn't dare to speak, and their breathing was as slow and cautious as possible, for fear of disturbing his train of thought.

Zhang Xiaoting suddenly showed a relieved expression, and commanded in a deep voice:

"You guys are ready immediately, dispatch 100,000 troops, all of them must be able to fight well, prepare immediately, we will set off at noon, go to the Yunlong Mountain Range, and quickly eat their 20,000 troops."

"In addition, immediately inform Yun Tianxiao to send 100,000 troops and horses as soon as possible to come to meet and prevent Yun Zhonghe from sending troops to help, if there is a slight change on their side, you must intercept all their reinforcements, and you must not let them receive those 20,000 horses."

After giving the order, he made arrangements for other things one by one, and it was not until almost noon that he finished dealing with them.

Zhang Xiaoting hurriedly ate lunch, led an army of 100,000, and marched towards the grassland.

At this time, Mu Qianmei's more than 5,000 people had just climbed to the treasure halfway up the mountainside, a small number of martial arts practitioners were better, most of the soldiers were so tired that they were sweating profusely, and it was indeed not easy to climb such a high mountain at noon on such a hot summer day.

Hot and tired, sleepy and hungry.

When they heard that their destination had arrived, they immediately sat down in the shade of a tree to cool off, took out their water bags and dry food, and drank water and ate dry food.

Mu Qianmei saw that they were all very tired and sleepy, so she asked Liu Tingfeng to give an order to let everyone rest for an hour.

And Mu Qianmei, Tana, the military advisor and Liu Tingfeng walked a little farther away from the soldiers, so that they could see them without affecting their rest, Mu Qianmei said:

"Aunt Tana, it seems that the treasure is under our feet, according to the map, it is only more than ten feet away from the steep cliff behind, just where we are currently standing!"

Tana smiled softly and said:

"yes, it should be right here."

"Then let's hurry up and eat something too, take a rest, and when the soldiers are rested, we will start digging."

Liu Tingfeng said, handed the prepared food to the three of them, and the water bag was brought by each person, so several people also took cold water and ate dry food.

When the three of them spoke, the military advisor frowned slightly, looking thoughtful.

When they took the food handed over by Liu Tingfeng, drank water, and ate dry food at the same time, the military advisor hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls and said:

"Our team here is so fanfare, the news must have spread a long time ago, with Dong Qin's strength here, they will definitely not let us bring the treasure back smoothly, we should think about the next step as soon as possible."

A word wakes up the dreamer.

Mu Qianmei and Tana have been trying to find the specific location of the treasure, but they have ignored this aspect of things.

According to what Lin Zhiqiu said, the Eastern Qin State has already dispatched a large number of troops to Snow City, and now that their own army is digging for treasures, these 20,000 horses will definitely become the target of their attack, and the situation is indeed not optimistic.

"Our situation is very bad, with 20,000 horses, the other side will definitely mobilize several times our troops to besiege us, if they succeed, won't they have both men and money?"

Mu Qianmei said worriedly.

Liu Tingfeng looked at Mu Qianmei with an anxious look, and couldn't help but feel deeply distressed, thinking of what Mu Qianmei said that night, he felt that he had grown up and should be able to help her, instead of taking care of everything alone, so he immediately started his brain and thought quickly.

After a while, he tried to speak:

"Now, with our situation, on the one hand, we should quickly send someone to find out the news, and on the other hand, we should find a way to notify the emperor and ask for rescue, it should still be too late, right?"

Mu Qianmei heard Liu Tingfeng's suggestion for the first time, and knew in his heart that he remembered what he said to him that night, although this suggestion was something that everyone had already thought of, but Mu Qianmei still said in an encouraging tone:

"Well, Tingfeng makes a lot of sense, the most urgent thing at the moment is to find out the news and seek support, and this matter will be arranged and executed by you!"

"Senior sister, do you think what I said is right?"

Liu Tingfeng asked with some uncertainty.

"That's right, these are indeed the two most urgent things, you hurry up and arrange it!"

"Yes, Senior Sister."

Liu Tingfeng felt that he could also share some things for his senior sister, so he was secretly happy in his heart, and after answering, he immediately went to make arrangements.

Looking at his brisk pace as he left, the three of them glanced at each other, and there was a knowing smile in their eyes.

After getting along with them during this time, Tana and the military advisor also learned that Liu Tingfeng was actually a simple-minded child, and now seeing Mu Qianmei encouraging him and wanting him to grow up, they all understood in their hearts, but they didn't speak.
