At dawn, the soldiers of the entire barracks were awakened by their respective commanders, who were ordered to leave immediately. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the tent of the marching camp, Gray looked at the map in his hand, and his face looked extremely ugly.

"Report to the Commander, we have found out that the rebel is a member of the cavalry. About 300 of them fled the barracks, all of them rushing out of the night, and the ordinary patrol soldiers couldn't stop them, and by the time we found out, the guys had already fled. ”

At this moment, there were two people standing in front of Gray, one of them was an officer at the level of a battalion officer, and the other was a flag regiment commander under him. The one who just reported the situation was the commander of the flag regiment, he was the commander in charge of the night patrol soldiers, and he was naturally a little nervous in his heart in the face of Gray's gloomy face at this moment.

"What else?" Gray snorted coldly: "How could these guys suddenly rebel and not even receive any news before? Damn, we are now in the Tadam Desert, even if these guys have horses to travel, but at most they can only support a day or two, where can they run? You can't hide in Tadamu and be a desert bandit or a horse thief, right?!"

At this time, the battalion officer next to him glanced at Gray a little nervously, and then said cautiously: "My lord, I have already asked people to investigate the supplies, and these guys actually attacked the soldiers guarding the supplies before leaving, and killed several people, and then robbed a lot of dry food and fresh water. And, and ......"

"And what, don't give Lao Tzu a mouthful, is there something wrong with the supplies?" Gray asked hurriedly.

When the logistics officer said this, fine beads of sweat were already showing on his face, and when he heard Gray's urging, he gritted his teeth and reluctantly said: "Moreover, these damn cavalry teams have also destroyed the waterwheels that reserve fresh water, dozens of waterwheels are seriously damaged, and now there are less than ten truckloads of fresh water left in the entire barracks, and I am afraid that they can only barely support the water supply of the barracks for a day......"

"What do you logistics people do to eat? You don't even send heavy soldiers to take care of the water source? It's a fucking desert here, how can there be enough water for the return trip with only one day?!" Gray couldn't help but be furious, and shouted directly at the logistics officer: "Come on, tie up this dereliction of duty guy and cut it down!"

"Lord Gray, it's not that my subordinates are derelict in their duties, I really didn't expect the cavalry team to rebel, besides, they are all cavalry charges, and my soldiers can't stop them at all!" The logistics officer's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but shout loudly.

The commander of the flag regiment who was in charge of night duty on the side also hurriedly pleaded with Gray: "My lord, Mo Tai is right, this matter blames those damn cavalry for being too cunning, they attacked the camp and destroyed the waterwheel before dawn. At that time, most of the patrol soldiers were outside the camp, and they never thought that these guys would suddenly attack the camp, so they would naturally be at a loss, please forgive Commander Motai this time!"

Gray was so angry that he couldn't hear this, he just glared at the flag commander fiercely, and scolded angrily: "You guy is in charge of night duty, but you didn't stop these guys desperately, and you are also responsible for it! Now you are still pleading for others, and sooner or later Lao Tzu will have to settle accounts with you! Come on, drag Mo Tai out to Lao Tzu!"

When the flag commander heard Gray say this, he dared to say anything more, and could only watch as his own soldiers dragged out of the camp with a pale face.

After a while, a personal soldier came to report back, saying that Mo Tai had been punished. Gray was furious, and said directly to the soldier: "Cut off this guy's head for Lao Tzu, hang it on the marching carriage, and report it to the whole army, just say that the logistics officer Mo Tai has derelicted his duties, and if any sergeant in the army ignores the military order, he will be severely punished!"

The soldiers led the order to leave, but Gray glared at the flag commander with a cold snort, and then said coldly: "You guy is also derelict in his duties, but for the sake of you following me for many years, this human head will be temporarily stored on your head." Hurry up and give Lao Tzu an order, and all the soldiers will set off as soon as they are ready, and they must hurry to the river valley corridor!"

When the flag commander heard Gray say this, he hurriedly withdrew from the military tent. At this time, the captain of the personal soldiers outside the tent reported in, and then ran to Gray to stand still, and after a quick military salute, he said with a serious face: "My lord, all our cavalry have gone out to pursue, and the direction of those defectors is the valley corridor. But those guys grabbed a lot of horses before they fled, so we didn't catch up, so we had to come back and report back to the adults. ”

"The direction of the valley corridor?" Gray frowned, holding back the anger in his heart, and couldn't help but bow his head and ponder for a moment: "These guys destroyed the waterwheel, obviously trying to kill Lao Tzu, and now they are fleeing to the west of the desert, what do these guys want to do?"

Although Gray felt that the matter of the cavalry rebellion was strange, it was not the time to think about it now. Now I can only rush to the river valley corridor as soon as possible and get out of the Tadam Desert, otherwise I and the thousands of soldiers under my command will die of thirst if they don't starve to death. The key is that because of the pursuit of those horse thieves, the army has penetrated a lot into the Tadam Desert, if it is according to Gray's previous plan, he will not be willing to joke with these thousands of soldiers, so even if he retreats now, he can calmly retreat to the valley corridor within three days.

But now the situation is such that the damned cavalry turned out to openly sabotage Tamsui logistics, and then defected!

When Gray thought of this, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart: logistics, it was the guy who was in charge of logistics supply before, and now the cavalry team has defected and destroyed Freshwater...... Does this have anything to do with that guy in Sadland?

"Immediately ask the logistics officer sent by Viscount Sadland to come over, I have something to ask him!" Gray instructed the captain of his own soldiers with a gloomy face.

After a while, the captain of the personal army came back with a serious face and reported: the logistics officer sent by Viscount Sadland is gone!

"How could it be gone?" Gray was taken aback, and there was already a faint feeling of strangeness in his heart.

"I was ordered to look for him in the rear camp, only to learn that the soldier in charge of his guard had died in the rebellion last night, and the whereabouts of the logistics officer were unknown. But I checked his tent and the guy's armor and weapons were gone. ”

"Don't look for it!" Gray said with a gloomy face, "This guy must have escaped with the cavalry! Damn, Lao Tzu finally knows what's going on, all this is Sadland's guy calculating Lao Tzu!"

First of all, a logistics officer was installed to investigate Lao Tzu's reality, and those damn cavalry teams probably did not escape, but had already been subdued by Viscount Sadland, so they attacked the camp before Lao Tzu withdrew, destroying fresh water and supplies, they wanted to trap Lao Tzu alive in the Tadam Desert!"
