Chapter 203: Khotan (500 monthly passes plus more)
Sure enough, in the following time, on the road back to Hu Biao and the others, everything was so calm and nothing happened.
Compared to the hardships, I don't know how much easier it is.
The only problem was that when they came, the emissaries could be light-hearted, even if they didn't count the wronged detours they had taken to avoid the bandits.
From the Dou Gu army in the Dunhuang area, it took about fifteen or sixteen days along the way.
As a result, when I went back this time, because the team was suddenly much larger, and there were many camels carrying supplies and gifts, the speed was naturally even slower.
Ma San's old pawn roughly estimated that it would take at least twenty-three or four days to return to the Dou Gu Duwei army, which was currently stationed in the Dunhuang area.
Fortunately, in such a boring journey, Hu Biao and the others had already had enough psychological preparation in their hearts.
Even before I returned, I had made some positive training plans.
For example:
Even if the training staff of the team of Fengrui is still staying in Shanshan Country because of some follow-up arrangements.
But in the morning and evening, the two old birds, Xu Feng and AT, still took over the morning and evening queue and military formation training.
Let the rookies have no time to touch the fish at all.
And because there are enough horses to replace, Hu Biao and other old birds will also practice some riding archery, horse fighting skills and so on in the process of marching.
In these aspects of horse combat, with the level of Gan Ying, Tian Xi, Ma San and others, it was more than enough to serve as Hu Biao's instructor.
Their strength is one aspect, and Hu Biao's Taicai is another.
As for the effect of such training? Yes, of course, there is.
However, just like Hu Biao's cultivation in the "Mozi Five Elements Breathing Method", what is important is a water mill kung fu that has accumulated over time.
In the short term, don't think about what you can do with training......
*******
At the same time, it was the fourth day after Hu Biao and others set off, this day.
Along the way, we crossed the Lop Nur Lake and the vast Gobi, and finally entered the Taklamakan Desert again.
Here in Shanshanguo, the people left behind are also about to take action.
It was still the same yard where they had lived for a while, and the horse team was configured with one man and three horses, and all the horses had been reined and saddled, and they had been fed once in advance.
And on horseback, water, dry food, and supplies are basically all in place.
Yang Dongli, Feng Rui, Lao Hei, Ahri and a group of ten people, although they did not wear heavy iron armor, they also wore light leather armor and chain mail.
Spears, knives, bows and arrows are also hung on the body and held in the hand, and they are a little heavily armed.
It can be said that Yang Dongli and the others are ready to set off.
It's just that before the official departure, Yang Dongli, who was the temporary leader among the left-behind personnel, still asked a little uneasily:
"Wolf Qing, you kid is okay."
The reason for this is that for the next few days, they need to maneuver a long distance at high speed by constantly changing horses.
Of the people who remained, the injuries of others were largely unaffected to this day.
Only the wolf green who had several broken ribs at the beginning, those bones have not grown well until now, and I don't know if he can withstand such a high-intensity continuous rush.
After hearing this, Wolf Qing patted his chest not so hard.
He replied with some confidence:
"It's okay, after so many days of cultivation, Fengrui fixed it with a fixed strap to help me fix it; So it may not be possible to fight, but there is absolutely no problem with hurrying. ”
After hearing such a statement, Yang Dongli no longer had any worries.
yelled in his mouth: "Go~"
In Yang Dongli's sentence 'Departure~', ten people with a surname all turned over and got on the horse easily.
Being able to do this is not because their riding skills have skyrocketed, but simply because they have temporarily installed a wooden stirrup on their war horses.
With the help of this thing, it can be said that it has played a great role.
Not only is it convenient to get on the horse, but more importantly, the legs can be better used on the war horse, which can help them free their hands on the war horse and make more combat moves.
As for such a thing, will it lead to any bad consequences?
Definitely not, because according to some of the action plans they discussed, after Hu Biao and the others went to Dou Gu's army, they would offer simple things such as stirrups and horseshoes.
Let the cavalry of the Han Dynasty be stronger.
What belongs to the Han is the world.
In this way, these simple harnesses, which can understand the principle at a glance, will be quickly transmitted throughout the Oriental world in a very short time, and it is impossible to keep it a secret.
In this way, Yang Dongli and the others galloped towards the city gate on the dirt road in the city.
Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, the Shanshanguo Elementary School who was guarding the door wanted to shout and curse loudly: Who dares to gallop so wildly in the city and don't want to live?
But the knights who saw the horses from a distance were actually rumored to be behind a group of great warriors with amazing combat power in the recent past.
Immediately, where do you dare to have half a sentence of nonsense in your mouth.
It is even more impossible to stop them.
If there was any action, he also shouted and scolded the stupid subordinates around him:
"Wait for these blind fools, don't hurry up and get out of the way, don't get in the way of these great warriors; If you anger these warriors, you want to die, and you haven't lived enough. ”
That is, when Yang Dongli and others beat horses through the city gate hole and passed by him.
After thinking of something in the little colonel's brain, he asked out of his mouth: "Dare to ask all the warriors of the big man, where are you going to go?" ”
"Tell the lord of the kingdom that I have waited for his hospitality over the past few days, and now I have something to leave; As for where we plan to go, don't worry about it, and don't ask more. ”
After leaving such a sentence, the people who rushed out of the city gate whipped their horses at a rapid pace, and the speed of their horses increased even more.
Soon after, it completely disappeared in front of their eyes.
And after running all the way for more than ten miles, the low city wall of the capital of Shanshan Kingdom could no longer see the shadow, Yang Dongli and the others turned their horses' heads and began to march in the opposite direction to when Hu Biao and the others returned.
Next stop: Khotan ......
In Khotan, located on the southern edge of the Tarim Basin, it is a small country established by the Cypriots.
East and end, Shanshan, west through Shache, Shule and other countries, the capital is called Xicheng, the lord of the country is Wei Chi; It is mainly based on agriculture such as planting, and the crops include wheat, millet, hemp, melons and vegetables.
The above are some of the news that Yang Dongli and others heard in Shanshan before they set off.
Combined with the modern plane situation, they came to the conclusion that the specific location of Khotan should be in the Hotan Yotgan region of present-day Xinjiang Province.
Because according to the old snake, this Xinjiang province is said by Asir, in the Yotgan area of Khotan, there is also a ruin of Khotan.
When it came to the modern plane, it was also developed into a scenic area, and the so-called scenery was mainly some mounds of earth, and 15 yuan of tickets were charged.
But it is worth mentioning that jade is very famous in the Han Dynasty.
After all, it's Hetian Yu, who is famous in the modern plane; At that time, after hearing this, these guys had some ideas in their hearts.
Not to mention some questions about how much you can sell for after you bring it back.
Isn't it fragrant to carve a little bracelet or jade pendant for your wife and female ticket......
