In a scream of 'chirp~', Hai Dongqing's 'Xiaobai', who looked a little tired, jumped up from the shoulder of the white-haired girl Ah Li.

After rushing up to a height of 100 meters like an arrow, it began to circle.

No way! Since the convoy entered the Gobi Desert, a strong wind has been blowing.

Such a strong wind swept up a large amount of wind and sand, even if it was veiled, from time to time it would fill people with sand, not to mention, and it would also affect the line of sight.

So much so that Haidongqing Xiaobai's air early warning ability has been quite affected.

Because once Xiaobai flies a little higher, Ah Li below can't see its movements clearly; Nowadays, the height of 100 meters is already considered the limit.

Fortunately, even so, it once again provided valuable air warning for the Xuange Battalion team.

Soon after, after passing some of Xiaobai's flight tracks, Ali's mouth reported a bad news:

"Old Hu, at 2 o'clock in the direction of the convoy, a large number of cavalry are rapidly approaching, and we are only seven or eight miles away, and there is not much time left for evacuation."

Hearing this bad news, a group of netizens became more and more impatient and began to work quickly.

Among the many supplies on the carriage, I picked out a few that I planned to carry with me.

Among them, Hu Biao and Xu Feng were under the movement of their hearts, and one after another shiny silver bricks appeared out of thin air in front of them, falling to the ground 'dangdang~'.

The weight of one or two of Datang, if converted to the standard of the modern plane, is 37.3 grams.

Therefore, the two tons of silver carried by Hu Biao and Xu Feng are almost 53,620 taels of silver, which is still the best quality snowflake silver.

According to Hu Biao, they found out from the Internet that one tael of gold at the end of the Tang Dynasty could be exchanged for six taels of silver.

These two tons of silver can be exchanged for 8,935 taels of gold, which can be regarded as a huge wealth.

Therefore, in Hu Biao's plan, the more than 50,000 taels of silver is a very important source for them to use as a pension for the veterans of the Anxi Army.

But now this so-called important source is like garbage, and soon a large pile is piled up on the ground, so that everyone has no interest in taking a second look.

No way! In today's situation where you can only travel lightly.

These can't be eaten, they can't be used, even a piece of beef jerky, a blanket, or even a handful of black beans can't be compared.

In a short time, Hu Biao and Xu Feng had already thrown out all the silver and put the ashes that had been packed in jars into their spatial rings.

Just after collecting the ashes, the sound of horses' hooves in Hu Biao's ears was quite clear.

Turning his head, he could already see that when a large number of cavalry attacked, the dust raised high was three miles away; Even without binoculars, you can faintly see the figure of the forward troops.

After hurriedly grabbing a bag of beef jerky weighing more than ten catties, Hu Biao turned over the nearest war horse, and took the reins of the other two war horses by the way.

He kicked the horse in the belly and began to flee forward.

Seeing this, a group of netizens followed one after another, including a group of novice rookies.

The only difference is that except for the God of Wealth and Little White Face, the remaining four people all hugged the horse's neck and began to flee on the horse's back.

The main reason is that during this period of time, although they have to practice riding for several hours every day, their riding skills are still too poor.

It's just that if you ride a war horse and hurry normally, you can barely hold on.

But once you enter the mode of galloping the horse, and hug the horse's neck without dying, there is really a great probability that you will fall off the horse's back.

The general would run seventy or eighty paces away, in the position behind them, in the cavalry army of the Tibetans.

Suddenly, the sound of a bull's horn rang out.

At the sound of such a horn, the Tibetan cavalry began to speed up; From the original state of trot, it turned into a wild run at full speed, chasing them.

Xu is the reason why the horses of the Tubo cavalry are now more abundant after recuperating their strength.

In the following time, Hu Biao and others drove their horses out of three or four miles, but found that the Tubo cavalry behind them was getting closer and closer.

Because the Tubo people are far inferior to the Hu and Tang people in archery.

Now the people who rushed to the front, most of them shook a 'Urdo' in their hands, and a small number of people were bent in the bow and arrow.

The so-called 'Urdo', this thing is actually used to throw stone piso.

The current movement of the Tibetan people is to shake the piso, which is to smash the egg-sized stones once they are in range.

Don't look at the tactics of the Tibetans throwing stones with this thing, it seems a bit childish and funny at first glance.

But Hu Biao, who had learned how powerful this thing was, didn't dare to be careless at all in his heart.

Because he knows that the Tubo people use 'Urdo' with a very good head, and if they want to hit you in the left eye within 50 meters, they will definitely not hit your right eye.

And in terms of the power of this thing, it's pretty good.

Think about it, a stone the size of an egg smashed into the skull with considerable force; Even if you don't break your head with the protection of a helmet, you'll feel a lot of dizziness, right?

If you hit the door, the consequences will be even more serious.

In contrast, because of the heavy armor protection, the people who are not very afraid of the bows and arrows of the Tubo people feel more terrible for this kind of 'Urdo' threat.

Thinking of the overwhelming stones beckoning over, smashing the heavy armor on their bodies, and a loud 'clanging~' scene, Hu Biao didn't dare to be careless at all.

After turning around, he was greeted by an arrow.

After shooting a target, he also shouted in his mouth: "Release the arrows, don't let them catch up~"

When everyone heard this, they all opened their bows and shot arrows; Thanks to the superb archery skills of the old birds, even on the back of a bumpy horse, every arrow can hit the target after beckoning.

However, the number of Tibetans was too large, and it still could not suppress the result of their gradual catch-up.

After a while, a large stone enveloped everyone.

Under a burst of 'jingle bell~', almost everyone was hit.

One of the stones hit the back of Hu Biao's head, making his eyes dark, and his brain was 'buzzing'.

The singer slammed his left shoulder, and the bow in his hand almost fell off.

Lying on the cross on horseback, this college student brother himself did not get hit.

But after the horse's buttocks were hit two or three times in a row, it shook the ground violently, and was almost thrown off the horse's back.

In short, a group of netizens are very uncomfortable......

******

Time: After five or six hours, it was completely dark.

Location: After a burst of frantic running, even Hu Biao and the others didn't know where they were, only that this was a large pile of rubble.

Hiding behind some large rocks can block the direct blowing of the wind.

In the light of a small fire, and in the sound of 'uh, uh, uh~', it was the two rookie girls of the God of Wealth and Camellia, who were lying on the ground and vomiting wildly.

And the other four old men rookies, it was not that they didn't vomit, but that they had vomited all the jaundice water clean in the previous time.

So much so that now, there is a feeling of being unable to vomit.

In addition, there are many old birds in the team, and even Hu Biao, a commander, who is pale at the moment, and has a bit of a trance.

That's so in the time before that.

Along the way, they were entangled in the battle with the Tibetans for almost two hours, and finally escaped from the entanglement of the Tibetans temporarily after nightfall.

In the following time, after running and killing many horses, he galloped all the way for seventy or eighty miles before he came to such a pile of rocks.

In the end, after Hu Biao shouted the sentence 'stop advancing'.

I don't know how many exhausted netizens flipped off the horse and lay on the cold ground in the first time.

It was time to lie down for a while, and they got up like an electric shock, knelt on the ground, and vomited wildly.

The reason is simple, after they were hit by too many stones, they were all smashed alive and had a slight concussion.

In the previous time, because of the escape, I was able to hold on to it a little bit.

After being temporarily safe, the sequelae of nausea, dizziness, and strong vomiting of 'concussion' broke out immediately.

It's just that the old birds have stronger physical fitness, or they are more beaten; So the reaction is not as strong as those rookies......

At least half an hour later, everyone drank a cup of hot milk tea to replenish their body calories.

Then I used the first-aid kit I carried with me to treat the wounds on my body, and everyone felt better and came back to life.

It is also at this moment that they are in the mood to count the current specific losses.

After some statistics, that result is really depressing.

First of all, in terms of everyone's injuries, it can only be said that everyone has injuries; Fortunately, in addition to the old wounds from the past, there were not many people who were seriously injured in this escape battle.

Chen Tang was hit with a hammer in the back, and a good rib was immediately broken.

The so-called 100 days of breaking muscles and bones, even if Chen Tang's physique is stronger than ordinary people, I am afraid that there will be many days when he can't continue to work with others.

Yuanhai, a former game worker, fainted after being hit with a blunt object on his head; If it weren't for Feng Rui grabbing his collar at that time, he would have flipped off the horse.

But even so, Yuanhai has always been in a coma.

Even Nan Ze, an old Chinese medicine doctor, doesn't know when this little brother will wake up; After waking up, will you become a fool?

Fortunately, in addition to comparing these two unlucky eggs, the situation of other netizens is much better.

One by one, their backs were greeted by the bows and arrows of those Hu people, although they were covered with a large number of arrows like feather dusters.

When dealing with the wound just now, the arrows were removed and piled together, and the few ones could weigh three or four taels, and the more ones could even weigh more than a pound.

However, under the protection of a heavy armor, the wound that was shot into it was not deep, and it was not a serious injury.

That is, because there are too many wounds, the blood loss from each wound is not too much, but when added together, it is quite terrifying, which makes everyone's body very weak.

If you want to say that the injury that makes everyone the most headache, it is the sequelae of concussion.

This thing doesn't have at least a day, it just can't be slowed down.

Secondly, there is the loss of transportation.

There is not a single carriage left for those snow and Gobi dual-purpose carriages; Of the more than 100 selected war horses, there are now only 47 left, and even one person and two horses can't do it.

What's even worse is that there are still half of the war horses, and now there is blood foam on their mouths, and their bodies are trembling quite violently when they stand there.

Obviously, these horses were frantically whipped and squeezed in the process of fleeing before.

At this moment, it has already hurt its vitality, and no matter how good it is fed in the future, these war horses are basically completely abolished.

Finally, there is the material loss, which is also the worst-case scenario.

In the past, everyone was busy in Qiuzi City for several days, and the batch of materials that they had carefully prepared were basically lost.

Before everyone left in a hurry, they carried a small amount of supplies, and a large part of them was lost because of the loss of horses.

After a temporary count, now everyone's supplies have been added together, that is, more than 200 catties of beef and mutton jerky, more than 50 catties of milk powder, and some first-aid kits.

and Nan Ze desperately brought out a package of twenty catties of various medicines.

If it is said that the above materials, everyone saves some of them; At least in terms of food, it will allow the team to eat for a few days without going hungry.

There are no warm tents, so everyone can barely survive the fire by collecting a little dead branch while spending the night.

Then the complete loss of forage, when Hu Biao instinctively glanced at the ground, he found that there was not even a single weed on the bare ground, except for grit or gravel.

It was immediately a reaction, and this was the most pressing problem for the team at the moment.

Because in such a terrible environment, and driven by madness, the delicate war horses didn't even have anything to eat, so soon they would die one by one.

When the time comes, it won't work, and everyone should not say that they can rush to Chang'an in time to complete the task.

Even escaping the pursuit of the Tubo army is an extravagant hope.

So, after summing it up, even a group of novice rookies are quite clear: the most urgent thing for everyone at the moment is to find a place to carry out the necessary supplies.

It's just that at the moment they are on the Gobi where birds don't, where can they be supplied.

In addition, there is a key point, at present, in the eyes of many Hu people, they are like Elder Tang in the goblins in "Journey to the West".

As long as they come up, they will definitely go crazy and take down their targets worth sky-high bounties.

If it was changed to usual, in the eyes of Hu Biao and others, these Hu people would be like dishes sent to them, and they would not be taken seriously at all.

But now, everyone is almost exhausted.

In short, after thinking about the above situations, everyone felt that there was darkness in front of them, and even some people were desperate.

"Don't worry about it for now, let's go to bed after eating something; The living can still suffocate to urine, and tomorrow there will always be some way to deal with it.

Hold on a little longer, as long as you return to Chang'an, everything will be fine."

Finally, in Hu Biao's mouth, after saying such a sentence, he tightened the fur coat on his body and began to carry out tonight's vigil......

Fortunately, at this most difficult time, Hu Biao and their eyes had some turning points.

To be more precise, it was after dawn, and the wind and sand that had been raging for several days suddenly stopped completely, and the visibility suddenly increased a lot.

Xu Feng, who was keeping vigil at the time, suddenly saw something in front of him after yawning loudly in his mouth.

After being excited, when he looked at it with a DIY binocular, he immediately confirmed that he was not mistaken, but there were a few puffs of cooking smoke, rising seven or eight miles away.

Beneath the smoke of the cooking, there was a jumble of low earthen houses, among which there were several figures, driving cattle and sheep to move.

All of the above is true, and there is no doubt that it is a bazaar, or a settlement of Hu people.

Of course, it doesn't matter what it is, the important thing is that in it, they should be able to get war horses, forage, food, cold supplies, etc., everything they need at the moment.

After thinking of this, he immediately told Hu Biao the good news with ecstasy,

After hearing such good news, except for the deep sea that was still in a coma, everyone else rushed to the edge of the pile of rocks.

I took turns using a few DIY binoculars and looked towards the market.

After confirming the real existence of this thing, a huge sense of joy emerged in everyone's hearts for the rest of their lives.

It was only after the initial surprise that a more realistic problem arose: how to get enough supplies without fighting.

After pondering for a while, Hu Biao's mouth arranged:

"Concubine, take out two gold bricks and cut them into shredded gold.

Old snake, aren't you a native of the frontier province, now it's time for you to behave, take this gold, and go get the supplies back.

Be careful, there must be no fighting, and the presence of the clan will be exposed. ”

"Okay." The old snake agreed without thinking, even for the current task, he was under great pressure.

Then in the mouth, a request was made:

"Let the concubine, the god of wealth, the singer, and the windmill go with me, otherwise I won't be busy alone; That's right! Isn't corn capable of disguise, disguising us as beards and orchids? ”

"No problem." Hu Biao decisively agreed......
