I don't know when the snowflakes in the sky have stopped.

All the supplies were tightly tied to the snowmobile with ropes by the soldiers.

The horses put on their shoes and made a crisp tap on the floor of the dock that had been swept away from the snow.

When the whole army lined up on the edge of the dock, Zhang Zheng shouted the two words that everyone wanted to hear the most.

"Go home!"

Then the soldiers methodically stepped onto the great river frozen by thick ice.

The team of 1,000 people is divided into 10 groups of 100 people, and each group is more than 100 feet apart.

After the first group has walked a distance of hundreds of feet, the second group can set off.

Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian were surrounded by Chen Yu and Duan Heng with dozens of personal guards.

They were the second wave of departures, all on foot, including Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian.

Horses with shoes on can only walk steadily on the ice, and cannot be ridden at all.

The section of the Wei River from Chang'an to Tongguan is more than 300 miles long, and today is the 24th day of the winter month, and there are still six days before New Year's Day.

Wanting to return to Chang'an for New Year's Day means that the Qincha team needs to go out more than 50 miles every day.

In the Hereafter, that is, twenty-five kilometers.

It doesn't sound like it's far, but combined with the current situation of the people, the slippery ice surface, and the ice holes that I don't know where they may appear.

This short distance of 25 kilometers has become a very difficult task.

The first wave of men and horses was gone, and the last wave of soldiers carrying the baggage pushed the snowmobile full of baggage into the river.

The rope at the front of the bobsleigh was then placed on the horse, which was originally used to pull the carriage.

If anyone were in heaven, they would surely see such a spectacle.

On a vast white earth, the course of the Wei River is the exact opposite of the white snow.

And many small rivers that flow into Weishui, together with Weishui, cut the entire Guanzhong land into tiny pieces.

The veins in it are like a weathered leaf.

And the largest vein among the leaves, that is, in the course of the Wei River, which should have been empty, there is a team that stretches for several kilometers and staggers forward.

Although slowly, it is firmly moving in the direction of Chang'an.

This is a group of travelers who want to return home, but also a group of adventurers and pioneers who dare to try.

……

Zhang Zheng stretched out his hand to pull up Li Chengqian, who had slipped on the ice, but he didn't notice the ice silk under his feet.

One accidentally stepped on it, but Li Chengqian didn't pull it up, but he fell on a big heel.

It was difficult to get up with the help of Chen Yu, and Li Chengqian was also helped up by Chang Yan.

Zhang Zheng can't remember that this is the first time the two have fallen in the past four days.

I only know that when I fall, I get up, and when I fall, I get up, and slowly, I fall so much that I can't even feel the pain.

After standing firm, the two looked at each other, and then laughed.

"Hahahaha, Brother Zheng'er, the heels I have fallen since I was a child are not as many as the heels I have fallen on this 'road' in the past few days."

Li Chengqian said to Zhang Zheng while laughing.

Just smiling and smiling, I don't know why I left tears, Li Chengqian stretched out his sleeve and wiped it, and then he couldn't control it, and the tears flowed more and more.

Zhang Zheng's eyes also had tears rolling in his eyes, but they were not painful.

To be honest, there is no sadness, uneasiness, or hypocrisy in everyone's hearts now.

On the contrary, as the distance between Chang'an and Chang'an got closer and closer, there was more excitement in my heart that I would be able to go home immediately.

And men, it is even less likely to shed tears because of pain and mood.

The reason why I couldn't control my tears was because the snow on both sides was so dazzling that my eyes hurt.

Zhang Zheng knew that this symptom was later called snow blindness, probably an inflammation caused by the retina of the eye being stimulated by bright light.

But for this symptom, Zhang Zheng has no way to solve it. After all, on the river, it is impossible for Zhang Zheng to stop the team to make sunglasses.

Fortunately, today is the fourth day that everyone has walked on the ice.

Zhang Zheng controlled the team, and no matter how difficult it was to walk every day, he had to advance at least fifty miles.

So in three days, Zhang Zheng and the others had advanced a distance of 200 miles.

According to the distance on land, Zhang Zheng and his party are already very close to Weinan.

As long as you get to Weinan, will Chang'an be far away?

And according to Zhang Zheng's guess, the distance from Weinan to Chang'an, the snow on the official road may have been cleaned up by the imperial court.

"Cheng Qian, work hard, and I'll be in Chang'an soon."

Zhang Zheng rubbed his legs, which were no longer conscious, and encouraged Li Chengqian, and then took a firm step.

Finally, in the evening, the group looked up and vaguely saw a low city wall.

"Look, it's the city wall of Weinan County."

"Weinan, we're in Weinan."

"Finally, home!"

The group of soldiers who walked in the front cheered, and the excitement in their tones could even be heard clearly by Zhang Zheng and the others, who were a hundred feet away.

"It's Weinan."

Zhang Zheng's face showed joy, and he yelled at the soldiers behind him.

Then he instructed Chen Yu: "Pass the order, the whole army will go ashore to repair, and send a few more people to find out if the road from Weinan to Chang'an is open!" ”

Seeing some low and dilapidated city walls in Weinan County, everyone's faces showed smiles.

After four days of climbing the ice and lying in the snow, I finally saw the direction of my home, how could I not bring tears to my eyes.

When Zhang Zheng's feet stepped out of the river and stepped into the thick snow, the soldiers who went to inquire about the news also returned.

"Report to His Royal Highness the Prince, Zhang Xiannan, according to the soldiers of Weinan who are looking for the city, the road from Weinan to Chang'an was blocked by heavy snow, but Chang'an sent someone to convey His Majesty's order.

His Majesty has sent soldiers from Qianniuwei to clean the official road day and night, and Weinan County has also organized people to clear the snow in the direction of Chang'an, and the road will be unblocked by tomorrow morning at the latest. ”

Hearing what the soldier who reported the news said, Zhang Zheng raised his head and sighed: "Great." ”

Li Chengqian was also overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Great, I finally don't have to climb the river anymore." ”

After walking the river for several days, Li Chengqian and Zhang Zheng were covered with bruises from slipping and falling on the ice.

Not only Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian, but almost all the soldiers of the army could not find a piece of good meat.

It is often said that Li Wucun, Qiu Thirteen, as well as Chen Yu and Duan Heng, are extremely stable, and there are not many wrestling times.

And those bruises that came out of the fall now don't feel pain.

But it is conceivable that after returning to Chang'an to soak in hot water, Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian will definitely want to die.

Zhang Zheng ordered Chen Yu with some emotion:

"Since the road will be opened tomorrow, let's go into the city tonight to repair it, and the soldiers haven't eaten a mouthful of hot food for several days."
