Dong Ying said seriously: "What's the use of having such a high combat power? Our ancestors' combat power is almost invincible in the world, and there are only one or two people in the world who are worthy of being her opponents, but she is not as happy as me." To be a man is to live comfortably first, and then consider strength. ”

When she said this, the girls were quite surprised, this guy looks stupid, but in fact, he is also a brain.

"Speaking of which, although the descendants of Emperor Taizu are all unreliable, their brains are not completely broken, at least they are better than the scum of the Donglin Party. Yi Yun couldn't help but say.

"Well, I feel the same way!"

Everyone walked through the streets and alleys, and ran back to the edge of the dock, and when Yi Yun's army of 5,000 had been waiting for a long time, Yi Yun ran to the front of the army and shouted, "The whole army is up, go!"

"Yes!" The five thousand slave soldiers hurriedly pulled out of the camp, their movements were not as slow and unreliable as Dong Ying's men. As soon as you talk about pulling out the camp, pat your ass and stand up and leave, and the speed at which the tent or something is put away is an instant.

When Yi Yun was in high school, he went to receive military training, and one of the items of military training was to fold quilts and wash up as quickly as possible, and later he also added this project when he formed the domestic slave army, which caused his army to pull out the camp very quickly.

Dong Ying looked at the miraculous speed of Yi Yun's army, and couldn't help but shout: "Wow, these female soldiers of yours are so powerful...... The action is super fast, if I have them, the preparation speed for travel will be at least several times faster...... Stinky cousin, as compensation for you breaking into my underwear and touching my arm, you have to sell these female soldiers to me, and I will pay a thousand taels of silver!"

"Don't sell them to you, they're my important soldiers. Eyun snorted.

"Don't be so stingy, you've obviously touched my hand, you should always make some concessions. Dong Ying shouted.

"If you touch your hand, you won't get pregnant, and it's not a big advantage, give in. "Yi Yun is not happy.

"What, will you get pregnant if you touch your hands?" Dong Ying suddenly took a few steps back: "It's miserable, I don't want a child yet." ”

"I rub. I'm talking about not getting pregnant if you touch your hands, not that you will get pregnant if you touch your hands. Why the hell are you listening to people? No wonder your maidservants are all talking nonsense. "Yiyun Khan, the upper beam is not right, the lower beam is crooked.

"Anyway, you're a stinky man, you touched me, and my hands became smelly, I want to take a bath, quickly prepare bath water for me." ”

"you. Now you're going to march! Do you know how to march? When you're on the march, you take a shower, and then you're done. ”

"Isn't it, can I wash while marching, prepare a stable big sand cart, and put a bath bucket or something in it?" Dong Ying said.

"Less! I don't have such luxurious conditions in my army. You give me a little more reliable. Yi Yun said to Zhao Yunxuan and Cai Rou: "Two cousins help me watch this guy, oh yes...... The Emperor's sister is actually your cousin, so let's talk to the four of you together. ”

He stuffed Dong Ying to Zhao Yunxuan, Cai Rou and the emperor's sister-in-law, and stuffed the four of them into a big sand cart, without Dong Ying making noise next to him, his mind was finally clear.

After the whole army was raised, it began to set off to the north, from Xiangyang to Shaolin Temple, there was still a long way to go. It's not a day or two to arrive, everyone walked out of the prosperous Xiangyang City, crossed the Han River on the boat of the Cao Gang, and came to the other side, Zhou Lan said goodbye to everyone here at night, the Cao Gang people will never be too far away from the river to move, and she can't mix this kind of thing when she enters Shaanxi.

Crossed the river. Come to a small oasis city, called Fancheng, and Xiangyang City across the river, this oasis city is small, but built very prosperous, the building in the center of the city is obviously funded by the imperial court, built neatly, there is a huge statue in the center of the city. It's about five times as large as a human being.

The statue is a one-armed woman, dressed in armor in the style of the Han Dynasty, a one-armed woman with a single hand wielding a huge hammer, and appears to be engaged in a bloody battle.

Yi Yun was quite curious, and couldn't help but run to the cart where Dong Ying was and asked, "What's the matter with this statue?"

Dong Ying replied solemnly: "This is the great hero of the founding of the Great Meng Country. The statue of General Wu, who only brought a small number of troops here in order to cover the crossing of the river by his friendly team, was finally wiped out by the enemy and died heroically...... Since her hometown is Beihai, it is also known as the glory of Beihai!"

"I see. Eyun bowed to the statue.

After leaving the city, we stepped into the desert, the mild oasis climate disappeared, and the long journey of yellow sand began. The sand wind swept wildly, and the yellow sand covered the sky. After a day or two of toiling in the desert, the army saw a small oasis in front of them.

Dong Ying introduced: "This is Xinye Green State. ”

"Wow, Xinye?" Yi Yun was a little impressed by this name, the place where Zhuge Liang burned Xinye in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" should be regarded as a famous city.

The army came towards Xinye, planning to rest here for a while, but he didn't expect to walk to the side of the oasis to see, but Yi Yun was startled, only to see that the Xinye oasis looked very dilapidated, the trees here were weakly drooping their heads, looking malnourished, and the fields in the oasis were all abandoned, no crops were planted, and the people in the oasis looked at Yi Yun and his party with godless eyes, obviously not having a good feeling.

"What's going on?" said Yiyun.

"I don't know, I haven't been out of Xiangyang City for a long time. Dong Ying spread her hands: "In the past, it was all green and full of crops, I don't know why it looks a bit like wasteland now." ”

Iyun sent a soldier to call a farmer and asked in a kind voice, "What's the matter with you here?"

The farmer sighed: "Alas...... There is a great drought! Crops cannot be planted. ”

"Shrimp, big drought?" Yi Yun was a little confused: "It's a desert climate all day, what else is there that doesn't have a drought?"

The farmer said bitterly: "It doesn't matter what the desert is, each oasis has its own spring, and it relies on the water gushing out of the spring to irrigate and grow crops, but in recent years, the water gushing out of the spring has become less and less, and the water level of the small lake in the center of the oasis has been decreasing year by year......"

"Oh, is there such a thing?" Yi Yun was really shocked this time, he hurriedly ran towards the middle of the Xinye Oasis, and soon came to the center of the Xinye Oasis, there was indeed a small lake here, but it was not so much a small lake as a small pool...... Many residents lined up to fetch water by the pool.

Yi Yun understood at a glance that there was a problem with the water supply mechanism of this oasis, and now the water provided to the residents is only enough to drink, and there is no way to grow crops at all: "It turns out that this is a drought, and the situation is really serious." ”

The farmer smiled bitterly: "But it's not just our oasis that is like this, there are many oases in the south of the river, west of the mountains, and west of Shaanxi, all of which have been affected by drought, and there are no crops to plant. ”

When Yi Yun heard this, he quickly recalled the history he had studied, if the current time of the Great Meng Kingdom was similar to that of the Ming Dynasty, then in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, it did suffer a very serious drought, what is that called? Xiaoice River period...... After more than ten years of continuous drought, the peasant uprising overthrew the Ming Dynasty.

This is a very serious situation!

He was thinking about something in another history, when Li Chengyu suddenly walked up and said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, the situation is not good...... You see how much water is there in that little pool, and the amount of water that can be supplied to the local population is already at its limit, if we, the five thousand soldiers, go and get water......

When she said this, Yi Yun suddenly gasped: "Nima...... Something is wrong, this small pool is not enough at all, if our army goes to fetch water, this oasis will be dried up at once, although the spring will slowly soak out, but I don't know how long it will take to accumulate another pool of water. ”

"Well, it seems that there is no way to replenish the water today, and the soldiers do not have much water left in their water bladders, but I am afraid that they will not last a few days. Li Chengyu's brows furrowed deeply.

The situation is very serious!

Yi Yun pulled a farmer over and asked, "Apart from Xiangyang, where is there a large oasis near here, the kind that doesn't worry about water!"

The farmer thought for a while, pointed to the north, and said: "Nanyang Oasis, it is a very large oasis, and there is a white river next to it, the white river is not a quicksand river, but an ordinary Qingshui river, as long as you can go to Nanyang, you will not worry about water." ”

"How far is Nanyang from here?" asked Yi Yun.

"Not too far, a hundred miles. ”

"A hundred miles, I'll rub it!" Yi Yun almost jumped up, his army's marching speed was about sixty miles a day, that is, thirty kilometers a day, if he walked at this speed, it would take at least a day and a half to rush to Nanyang from here, considering that it would take one night in the middle, that is, it would take two days, would the soldiers' already flattened water bladder be able to hold up?

If you can't hold on, you have to hold on!

Yi Yun waved his hand and said to Li Chengyu: "You give the order to go down and ask the soldiers to save water, and tell them that it will take two more days to find a water source, and don't waste their water bags." ”

"Okay!" Li Chengyu turned around and gave the order.

Yi Yun also walked to the big sand cart where the girls were riding, and told them softly that they should save water for the past two days, and they couldn't wash their faces and brush their teeth.

A sand cart next to a sand cart passed the word, the girls all expressed their understanding, they didn't have a problem if they didn't take a bath for a day or two, suddenly, he heard Dong Ying and the four of them in the sand cart Dong Ying's shouting: "Oh, stinky man, you didn't let me take a bath when I was marching, and now that the march has not stopped, you can let me take a bath, right? My arms stink everywhere you touched, so stinky, stinky to death! If I don't take a bath, I'm going crazy!"
