Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Second Coming
Because of Tian Kai's sobriety, the biggest doubts and uneasiness in Gongsun Yan's heart were solved, and some problems also followed.
"Does General Gongsun have any Tibetan military supplies in Youzhou?"
After waking up the first day, Tian Kai's state returned to his speed, and when he set off the next day, he was already able to sit in the rickety carriage and drink porridge with the help of him.
After he was completely sober, he had the energy to observe some problems.
The sergeants of the team are all dressed thick and solid without revealing their flesh, wearing a hood covering their heads and faces, a button of brown windproof goggles, and thick-soled boots with one step at a glance, you can see that this team is rich and oily, and the painting style is very different, and it is difficult not to pay attention to it.
Tian Kai was a little puzzled, but the statement that Gongsun Yan and Zhao Yun had bitten to death also made him have to believe it, otherwise no one would be able to explain where these things came from.
He touched the mummy sleeping bag under him with some emotion, "I think that General Gongsun has already planned to conquer the outside of the Saiwai, so he secretly made these preparations." ”
In 188 A.D., when Gongsun Zhan conquered Zhang Chun, he pursued the enemy too deeply, and was surrounded by Wuhuan Qiu Liju in Guanzi City in Liaoxi for 200 days.
Gongsun Chan was killed and wounded, and no one knew how he survived these two hundred days, and finally Qiu Liju retired from the army, and Gongsun Zhan, who had a mouthful of blood, walked out of Guanzi City alive.
After the battle of Guanzicheng, Gongsun Zhan's personality changed dramatically, and his attitude towards the Hu people went directly to the extreme - the dead Hu people are good Hu people.
Tian Kai guessed that these warm equipment with clear directions should be prepared by Gongsun Zhan in order to take the initiative to attack the outside of the plug and completely defeat the Hu people.
It's just that he didn't expect to die before he left the school, and in the end, he was trapped by Yuan Shao and killed Yi Jing.
Seeing that he had already made up the cause and effect in his own brain, Gongsun Yan and Zhao Yun naturally didn't talk much.
The team marched for two more days, and they had already entered the territory of Liaoxi.
Zhao Yun drew the gourd in the same way, and replenished the five-day horse feed and human rations.
Seeing that there were two more days to reach Lingzhi, Gongsun Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhang Zhu and Wang Wu took a group of people and horses to Lingzhi to report the letter first, so that Gongsun's family could respond.
Partially.
When everything was already good, it snowed again.
The team put back on the windbreakers they had almost laid off yesterday.
In just one morning, the temperature plummeted, and the snow that had melted was once again on the ground.
Gongsun Yan sat in the carriage and stuffed Gongsun Cheng into his sleeping bag, the weather outside changed abruptly, she couldn't let Gongsun Cheng go on horseback riding, he couldn't stand the weather outside.
The carriage staggered forward, with a small charcoal stove in the car, and the wind and snow poured in from the small crack left by Gongsun Yan to breathe.
Even if your feet are on the fire, they are still as cold as ice.
She looked out through the breathable slit.
Outside, it was snowing, and everyone dismounted, hunched over, and tightly tugged at the reins, borrowing their horses to escape the harsh cold wind.
As far as the eye could see, there was a vast expanse between heaven and earth, and the wind mixed with goose feathers and heavy snow swirled and danced, and she couldn't even see the figure a few steps away, nor could she hear the familiar sound of horses' hooves beside the carriage in the past.
Only the whistling wind and the creaking of the wooden axles of the carriage.
Gongsun Yan inexplicably panicked, and for the first time, she really faced the heavy snow that ate people during the Xiaoice River period in the late Han Dynasty.
The previous confident preparation did not seem so foolproof.
The small charcoal stove fixed to the carriage with a wooden support, and the kettle on top of it finally made a whining sound, and Gongsun Yan hurriedly lifted the boiling hot water down.
The carriage of the carriage was a little low, and she bent down inconveniently and lifted the thick windshield curtain in front of the carriage.
The moment the wind curtain opened, a cold wind like a scraper rushed up, mixed with large snowflakes, and Gongsun Yan instantly felt a pain on his face.
Xia Houlan drove a carriage, wearing a windproof hat and line gloves, and a military coat, and his body was covered with snow blocks.
In the past, Wang Wu was doing the work of driving like this, Zhang Zhi and Wang Wu went to Lingzhi to report the news, and Zhao Yun led people to lead the team in front of the team to open the way, and this errand fell on Xia Houlan.
Afraid that the oncoming wind would blow into the carriage, Gongsun suffered the cold, and Gongsun Yan hurriedly lowered the wind curtain behind him.
It was almost by shouting that Xia Houlan understood what she meant, took out the marching kettle hanging in her coat, and asked her to pour him a pot of hot water.
Xia Houlan seemed to say something again, and the wind was too strong for Gongsun Yan to hear clearly.
She stood on the carriage, holding the carriage, straightened up and looked ahead, her black hair dancing in the wind and snow, and she only saw a few people in black coats hunched over their waists, struggling to move forward against the wind and snow.
She didn't see Zhao Yun's figure, she was a little worried, and she didn't know what was going on in front of her.
Xia Houlan saw the little lady next to her stand up, and in an instant, she blew snow particles all over her head and face, and she simply admired her spirit of death, and dared to stand up and look at it without wearing a windproof hat.
Seeing that she shouted a few times, she didn't seem to understand, so she simply grabbed her wrist and stuffed her back into the carriage, leaving only the pot of boiling water.
Xia Houlan carried the kettle, jumped out of the carriage, walked a few steps quickly, and poured a pot of water on Xin Shi, who was driving in front of the car, and Tian Kai in the car, to warm them up.
The two horses pulling the cart were well-trained war horses, dragging heavy carriages, but they did not worry about them being frightened, they would follow the team themselves, and it would be okay to leave for a while.
"Zixiu, how are the little boy and the little lady?"
Tian Kai was half-lying in his sleeping bag, his broken arm was wrapped in bandages, and he was wearing a military coat, and he was in good spirits, he asked Xia Houlan, who was drilling the carriage.
"It's fine." Xia Houlan raised the kettle in her hand, "The little lady also boiled hot water." ”
Tian Kai's carriage did not have a charcoal stove, he was still in a coma before, if he lit the charcoal stove, he was afraid that the heating would not be obtained, and he would be poisoned by gas first.
Greeted Xin Shi, who was driving, and asked him to take care of the carriage behind, Xia Houlan moved to the front of the team against the wind and snow and found Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun was also covered in snow, and his black coat was about to be turned white by the snow, and he was a little surprised to see Xia Houlan coming over through the brown windshield.
"You're here?"
Unlike when talking to Gongsun Yan, it is not good to get too close, and it is all about roaring, Zhao Yunxia and Hou Lan did not have so many scruples, and the two of them put their heads together.
"Gongsun Niangzi boiled hot water." Xiahou Lan shouted loudly next to Zhao Yun's ear, asking Zhao Yun to take out the kettle and pour water.
"Go back." Although Zhao Yun also knew the temperament of the horses, he did not approve of Xiahou Lan leaving the carriage of Gongsun Yan and Gongsun Cheng
He didn't rebuke or grind out loud, he quickly took out the marching kettle, poured hot water, and asked Xiahoulan to hurry back.
"Got it!" Xiahou Lan didn't know his overly cautious temper, and when he turned his head, the afterglow at the end of his eyes seemed to see something.
He narrowed his eyes and lifted the brown goggles on his windshield to look more closely.
Zhao Yun made the same action as him, and the two glanced at each other in unison, making sure that the two of them saw the same thing.
