Volume 3 Desert Flying Sand Chapter 72 Go and stay
The shadow was getting closer and closer, Huan Quji's pupils were greatly dilated, and the scene in front of him was clearer, how could it be here?
He had seen the people in front of him, and he was the number one person in Xie Jie's team, but now he didn't see his horses, his lower body was almost buried, and his face was stained with a lot of yellow sand.
"Look at his dress, he is a member of the Tang Army. I'm afraid it's ......."
Mr. Bang on the side frowned, because his face was covered by clothes, and Huan Qujian didn't see his expression clearly, but from the tone of his voice, he was confused.
He crouched down lightly and leaned over to the man who was lying, "Still alive, save him first." β
The horse under Mr. Bang kept moving his hooves, causing him to sway on his back, looking at his own people lying in the desert, "If you encounter a sandstorm and get scattered halfway, we will save it, if it is a bait, go to the little brother, we will rush forward!"
"Xie Jie is not here!"
"It is precisely because we do not have Xie Jie's whereabouts that this move is risky!" Mr. Wan tightened the horse rope in his hand, "You and me, I'm afraid it's more than lucky!"
"Sir, if you come here, you have to save him!" Huan Qu glanced up, already determined.
"Go to the disease, go to the disease......"
The arm seems to have been pulled by something, and I just turned around and wanted to be him, what happened?
Mr. Bang in front of him glanced at his side and hurriedly looked around, guarding against something.
"Go to the ......", the voice behind him sounded again, Huan went to his senses, and the person lying down seemed to wake up!
"How are you?" Huan quickly helped him up, and wiped the sand under his leg by the way.
The man's tone was extremely weak, and he was supported to stand for a while before he spoke, "Ahem, I was separated by a sandstorm!"
"Separated?"
"Well, in order to avoid the sandstorm, everyone set off early, but I didn't expect to arrive at the heaviest place of the sandstorm, my horse was stuck in the sandpit, and when the wind and sand were extremely strong, I couldn't see anything at all!"
"So the line of defense that the advance force has set up for us is estimated to have all fallen. Mr. Bang said coldly.
Huan Qujian calmed him down first, and then took out the only wine bag he had, "Drink some bags." β
The man was also unceremonious, and when he saw something to quench his thirst, he drank all the half-full wine bags in one gulp.
Mr. Bang pulled Huan to the side, he pulled off his clothes, held back a glance at the young man, and took the lead in speaking, "You can't go, if you want to go, you have to go back the way you came!"
"Why? Didn't you finish the drawing?" Huan Quji looked at Mr. Bang suspiciously.
"It's one thing to draw a picture, you can't lose your life, the advance troops are scattered, our most stable shield is gone, it's too risky to go on!" Mr. Bang knocked on his forehead and said.
Huan went to glance at his comrades-in-arms who were drinking behind him, and looked solemn, "You don't have to be afraid, there is still me!"
Mr. Bang chuckled lightly, shook his head and said, "Go to the little brother, I'm not joking, I know that because I was delayed, we set off early today." β
"Mr. ......"
"Take a closer look now, it's not worth it, risk losing your life for the sake of a picture, do you think it's worth it?" Mr. Bang said every word Huan Quji heard clearly.
"But, let's go back now......" he gestured to his comrades behind him, signaling to take him back.
"He, how much ration do you have in hand, are you sure you want to bring it?" Mr. Bang stepped forward without hesitation.
Huan Qujian subconsciously took a few steps back, but the burden behind him was still snatched away.
Mr. Bang took out the water bag and shook it, "There is not a drop left in the water bag, why are you?"
"I ......."
"I know your hydration bag is almost used to save me, and I can give it to you, but he can't, and now he has nothing but people, and he is a burden!" Mr. Bang said, taking a deep breath.
"How can I leave him behind, sir, if I had taken you into the cave yesterday and had not saved you?"
"You, I'm ......" The little white scholar on the other side was like a red jade at the moment, and the whole person felt quite uncomfortable, "Speechless! Is the situation the same now as it was then?"
Huan Qu shook his head and left a sentence, "I don't care, I'll take him back when I retreat!"
At this moment, Mr. Bang's heart was boiling, and he didn't know how to open his mouth for a while, this person is not stupid but naΓ―ve!
He was so anxious that he almost stomped his feet, but he simply found that he was still holding his burden in his hand, grabbed it firmly, and smashed it on the young man's back, "Okay! Take him away, but you can't move forward, go back!"
Mr. Bang gritted his teeth and said the last two words to go back, this time it didn't hurt, but I didn't expect Mr. to do it!
"Thank you sir, thank you sir!"
"Hmph, you take care of him yourself, I won't care about him!"
"Understood, understood!"
"According to my identity, I am your boss, so you owe me a favor, do you know?" said and returned the burden to the young man.
"Whatever the gentleman says, he is. β
With a cold snort, Mr. Bang gave him a faint glance, and he didn't want to convince him of anything anymore.
The person in front of him has figured it out by himself, but it is difficult to control it.
Black and white are the easiest, while people are the hardest!
Because of the news of the separation of the advance troops, the three of them had an inexplicable fear of the sandstorm, Huan Quji and Mr. Wan still chose to return the same way after some consideration, but how easy is it to go back?
The two of them had already abandoned their plans to return before they set off, so they could move forward desperately, with the most stable shield in front of them, and it was always safe to follow behind!
Now in this embarrassing situation, the back road is buried, and I don't know what I am facing when I go back.
Huan Qujian and the two were naturally anxious, and the rescued veteran seemed to have recovered his face after quenching his thirst and filling his stomach, looking leisurely and wandering, ignoring the sandstorm that swept behind him.
"Don't be too nervous, you two! When this sandstorm is over, there will be a way, and in my opinion it is also the end of the crossbow, much smaller than the one that was dispersed. β
"Well said, we don't know where we are now, how do you sit still?" Mr. Bang snorted lightly and said with a contemptuous expression.
He doesn't have to give this idle person a little face, this veteran has nothing, and even living is an opportunity given by Huan Quji!
The old soldier took out a small piece of jade pendant from his clothes with a smile, and looked at it carefully, "It's useless to be in a hurry! It's better to sit down and wait!"
Huan went to pull the corner of Mr. Wan's clothes, "Listen to the eldest brother, I really don't know the direction at all now, we walked to the center of the sandstorm on time, right, big brother?"
"That's right, you unfortunately happened to be in the center of the sandstorm, and if you weren't in the center, at least you wouldn't be able to see anything!" The veteran grinned and shook his head helplessly.
"If you don't come to this center, you can live, thank Dade!" Mr. Bang said casually, and sat down under Huan's persuasion.
The veteran saw that the two of them were also sitting down, so he simply opened the conversation, "Hey, what are you going to do when you go back?"
"Confession?"
"That's right, let me tell you, now the three of us can be regarded as deserters, what about me, I didn't complete this reconnaissance mission, if Lao Xie goes back safely, I will definitely have no good fruit to eat, as for the two of you, ......"
The veteran's words attracted Mr. Bang on the side, "What's wrong with the two of us?"
"If you two don't take a map with some information back, I'm afraid it's a big crime! I have a good relationship with Lao Xie, and it's a big deal that I can keep my military status with a glass of wine, and if he doesn't intercede, I can only use the latter trick. β
Huan Qu said noly: "Yes, what punishment is there, us?"
"Expulsion, exile!"
Exile? Expulsion from the army is still acceptable, and there is no other way out if you can't join the army, but exile is different, it is a ruthless constraint on freedom, and most of the labor force of the Tang people building the frontier is exiled people.
Mr. Bang's face was silent, the veteran's sleekness was vividly reflected at this moment, after all, he had been in the mix for many years, and his means were somewhat bit.
"Your crime is not light, Tang Luzhong, for the fighters in the army who have left the team and disappeared for no reason, after being found again, they will be killed! You can save the head with a drink?" Mr. Bang was puzzled.
"Hmph, you two, you are young in the end, take a look, how much is this jade pendant in my hand worth?"
After speaking, the veteran shook the jade pendant in his hand, smiled proudly, and touched the jade pendant with his rough hand, "What Xie Jie can't solve, it can be solved! Direct benefits are simpler and more direct than human favors, aren't they?"
Huan Quji's eyes widened, he couldn't believe it, the words that the person in front of him said, since the moment he entered the barracks, the first thing that every senior handed over to him was to abide by military discipline, even Xie Jie once said this to himself.
He also once believed that as long as he followed the military discipline step by step, he would have a bright future, but the senior in front of him said the bribery in front of him indifferently.
How can it!
The young man's posture stood up suddenly, his fists clenched, and he looked at the veteran in front of him like a torch, "What you just said is a naked violation of military discipline, and the crime will be added to the crime!"
"What are you talking about?" The old soldier also got up, looking extremely lazy, he dragged Huan Qujian to his front and patted the young man's shoulder, "Quji, do you know why you can only be Xie Jie's follower and follow him all the time?"
βγγγγγγ β
The veteran shook his head with disdain, his body suddenly got up, and his arm pushed Huan Qu to the ground with a forceful push, "Because what you see is only one side, people are two-sided!"
