"Lao Hu, Lao Hu~"

Hu Biao, who was sleeping, was immediately awakened after feeling someone pushing him.

No way! In this place where birds don't poop, they can't even find dead branches and leaves to make fires, or dry cow and sheep dung.

Naturally, it is impossible to talk about the matter of lighting up the fire to rest and cook some hot soup to warm up.

Therefore, Hu Biao said that he would let everyone rest for four hours, and then start the process of departure; It's just that everyone grabbed a handful of snow on the ground, stuffed it into their mouths, and gnawed a little dried beef and mutton on their stomachs.

Then, a group of people wrapped in fur coats, leaning together like a flock of sheep in winter, leaning on each other's body temperature to keep each other warm.

Such a way to warm each other is naturally somewhat useful.

The problem is that in the current weather of minus 14 degrees, when everyone has lost a lot of blood due to fighting, this is also quite limited.

Anyway, Hu Biao felt that after falling asleep, he would be woken up from freezing from time to time; I needed to move my cold body before I could continue to squint for a while.

The whole quality of sleep and rest, that's called a terrible one.

For a while, he missed the warm tents, the stove, and even the good times when everyone was eating hot pot and singing songs together.

So Hu Biao, who slept very lightly, woke up after being pushed slightly.

But after being woken up, Hu Biao felt that his head was dizzy, and his whole body was very tired, and he was very uncomfortable.

It's just that after the concubine's words came to his ears, he immediately sobered up:

"Old Hu, the God of Wealth has a fever."

If it is in normal times, a cold and fever or something is naturally a trivial matter, it is nothing more than taking some medicine and sweating, and it will be fine; But under the current situation, it's just a huge bad news to make matters worse.

Because there is no doubt that this will involve the old birds of the team, and there is not much energy left.

Then, Hu Biao looked at the God of Wealth who was sleeping next to the concubine, and immediately found that this girl looked very bad; Even after falling asleep, he frowned deeply.

In today's weather, there are still two abnormal flushes on the small face with delicate facial features and the size of a palm.

Waiting until one of Hu Biao's palms touched the girl's forehead.

After feeling that even if the egg is not cooked, it can have a high temperature of at least forty degrees, and suddenly he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

In fact, Hu Biao knows that it is normal for the situation in front of him to occur.

The God of Wealth, a girl, even if she usually likes to play ball, run, archery and other sports, so her physical fitness is much stronger than that of many modern planes, and the old man with a beer belly is much stronger.

But after all, it's just an ordinary person.

In the days of climbing ice and snow for so many days in a row, and fleeing everywhere, the physical burden was originally almost to a limit.

In addition, under the emotional impact of the incident encountered in the Ping'an Assembly this morning, great sorrow and joy.

It was the last straw that met the camel, and the body finally couldn't bear it, and began to catch a cold and fever.

What to do? Such a girl who usually performs well and works hard to integrate into the team naturally can't just throw it here because of such a small situation.

Hu Biao could only wake up Mr. Nanze and ask him to come over and feed some pills for fever and cold.

When it's time to set off later, let the concubine take her with her.

This wasted a valuable combat power, and there was no way to do it.

So in the following time, the tea profiteer with heavy eyes was woken up, and he fiddled with the small medicine box he carried with him.

Some small chai hu balls were made from it, and the God of Wealth used them to reduce fever.

Some pills with radix radix, astragalus, and buffalo horn as the main ingredients, similar to 'Qing Kai Ling', are used as medicines to relieve cold symptoms.

In the end, a large handful of medicines were fed to the God of Wealth with a handful of snow water.

No way! Again, because there is no fuel, they now want to get a sip of hot water to drink, which is a huge luxury.

Under the stimulation of the snow water, the God of Wealth girl, who was originally a little burned and confused, just sobered up.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, or if those balls rubbed by Mr. Nanzawa are really effective, anyway, after three or four minutes.

The God of Wealth, with a little fine beads of sweat on his forehead, was obviously a little more relaxed.

It's just that Hu Biao, Guifei, and Mr. Nan Ze, who didn't wait to see this, breathed a sigh of relief, and another sentence came from their ears: "Nan Ze, hurry up and take a look, a few seriously injured people in Chen Tang seem to be in a bad situation." ”

After hearing this, Hu Biao and the others hurriedly walked over.

After some examination, I let go of my biggest worry, not that these people's wounds have become infected or worsened.

It's just that after the decline in physique, he was invaded by the wind evil like the God of Wealth, so he caught a cold and fever.

It's just that this means that a few more people need to take care of them, which makes the burden of the next team move forward.

"Let's feed each one some medicine, and when you can ride, everyone will be assigned a special person to take care of it; They are all heroes who can live as long as they find a place to raise them, and they can't be thrown here. ”

There was no hesitation, and Hu Biao's mouth could only give such a statement.

Under Hu Biao's arrangement, Nan Ze could only continue to rummage in the medicine box.

At the same time, I am also a little worried in my heart, and the medicines I carry on my body now are basically some gold sore drugs and anti-inflammatory drugs for the treatment of internal and external injuries.

On the contrary, most of the medicines for colds and fevers were lost in the convoy, and there were not many in the boxes at all; If there are more people with colds and fevers, it will be a bit insufficient......

When Hu Biao, Nan Ze and others were busy, all the netizens were awakened.

The appearance of being unkempt and unkempt and having blank eyes made Hu Biao have a terrible headache.

Special! This is still the invincible 'Xuange Battalion Clan' among the many missions in the past?

It's just that in the face of the cold winter in the Western Regions, such an injury that can be regarded as the power of heaven and earth, Hu Biao has no good way, and he has no intention of letting everyone continue to ink here.

When I looked up, I found that there was still a little time before the sky completely darkened, so I immediately set off and walked for three or four hours.

Go as far as you can.

As for the purpose, of course, it is Zhou Bonian's map, combined with the old snake's indigenous understanding of the terrain of the border province.

It should be at the foot of a mountain more than 160 miles away from here after bypassing Igo Castle.

Because according to Zhou Bonian's records, there is a small tribe of about one or two hundred people, who live there quite secretly, rarely deal with outsiders, and are said to be quite poor.

But then again, no matter how poor that small tribe is, it is also a big dog level for the current team.

As long as they go there, whether they buy or rob, they can always get all kinds of supplies they need.

The premise is that in the Western Regions where a tribe rises at every turn, or dies silently, that small tribe still exists today.

In response to such a point, Hu Biao can only gamble.

Before leaving, Hu Biao and the others cut off a total of 100 catties of fresh horse meat from the tired horses; A small part of it was carried with me, which was considered an emergency ration.

The other large part was directly under the leadership of the veterinarian of the white-haired girl, which was chopped and fed to the horses.

That's right, it's to feed the horses with horse meat! Horses are actually omnivores, capable of eating meat, and even temporarily increase their horsepower after eating meat.

Four hundred years later, the Mongol cavalry did just that.

It is a pity that such a practice of feeding meat to war horses is often only used in extreme cases.

Because horses can't digest meat, if they eat it for a long time and many times, it will be disastrous for the digestive system of war horses, and it will be sent to death.

But in today's situation, there is no way for everyone to care about these war horses, it will be too long in the future.

The only thing to count on now is to hope that these war horses can hold on a little longer, until they reach that small tribe whose name they don't even know.

In the end, after making all the preparations, Hu Biao glanced at the mentally depressed people.

I don't know how many times I shouted, and I shouted almost the same sentence: "Everyone hold on a little longer, as long as you return to Chang'an, everything will be fine." ”

After a second pause, he added another sentence to his mouth:

"I heard that in the West Market of Chang'an City, there are many 'orchid restaurants' that are most popular among the Tang people, and Li Taibai often messed around in them.

The orchid in it, but the one that often bathes and doesn't smell much on the body, when the time comes, even if I use the pants, please eat and drink. ”

After hearing such a sentence, the spirits of a group of netizens finally lifted up a little, regardless of men and women.

Because 'Chang'an City', such a simple place name, is already the biggest obsession in their hearts at present, even if they climb, they have to climb back......

******

At noon on the second day, on the endless Gobi.

After seeing the almost unchanged scenery in front of him after almost four hours since the morning, Hu Biao couldn't help but shout:

"Yu Hanfeng, how far is it from that tribe now?"

After hearing this, he calculated the current team, and the team leader who did not collect the speed of the march at night, answered Hu Biao with a rather frustrating answer:

"There are still seventy or eighty miles, since yesterday afternoon, we have only walked half the way~"

After hearing such a sentence, Hu Biao was a little weak and weak all over his body, and he didn't even have the strength to complain and scold the street.

Why? Because the speed of the current team is very disappointing, even a little desperate.

If it were the same as before, that is, when those snow climbing plows still existed, it seemed like such a journey of 80 miles, and the top of the sky was a matter of three hours.

But now? Since we set off yesterday afternoon, we have walked for more than eight hours, and it is only after walking so far that it is equivalent to an hour to walk more than ten miles.

It's about the same as the speed of an adult walking.

The key reason is that except for the systematic war horses of Yu Hanfeng and others, other people's war horses are basically on the verge of scrapping under such squeezing and general use.

They simply can't run, they can only move in small steps.

The reason why they are still riding them is because Hu Biao and the others do not have much physical strength, and they even have some signs of catching a cold, which is a little better than walking by themselves.

In addition, the high fever of the God of Wealth, Chen Tang and others is often not a long time after the fever subsides after feeding the medicine, and the forehead begins to heat again, and they are in a situation of repeated fever.

As a result, it was difficult for them to even sit firmly on horseback, and it slowed down the march of the troops.

In short, the journey to that small tribe was far more difficult than they had imagined.

The only thing that can be thankful is that I don't know if it was in the wind and sand that only subsided this morning, so that those Hu people chased in the wrong direction.

Anyway, up to now, they still haven't encountered any pursuers from the Hu and Tubo people.

Otherwise, the situation will only get worse......

However, there is an old saying that goes: what you are afraid of, what you come.

Just when Hu Biao was glad that at least his luck was not to the extreme; Although the speed is a little slower, you can always reach the time of that small tribe.

Suddenly, the AT, who was cruising and guarding on the left side of the team, was galloping back on a war horse.

When he was far away, he hurriedly roared out of his mouth: "Old Hu, at 4 o'clock in our direction, more than 200 Hu people appeared, what should I do?" ”

Saying! If it is replaced by the current situation, the words in the mouth of AT, a little white-collar worker: Lao Hu, how should we fight?

Now it's 'what to do'? It's all because you have a good idea of what the current team is doing.

Knowing that everyone's combat effectiveness is only two or three percent of the heyday, I really don't have much confidence.

After Hu Biao heard this, he instinctively took a look at the current team; When I saw everyone, one person was sleepy and tired to the extreme.

Immediately, I knew very bitterly that they just wanted to escape now, and these war horses had no way to do it.

In the end, it can be said that Hu Biao, who was forced to a dead end, burst out with the ruthlessness in his heart.

After spitting out a heavy spit in his mouth, he shouted fiercely: "What else can I do, don't run away, prepare to fight!"

I took out the 'Dragon and Tiger Pill' I brought back last time, prepared to take it, and fought with these Hu people.

Either their horses or the supplies they carry have become our supplies; Either these Hu people, carrying our brains to receive the reward. ”

Hearing this, as long as the personnel who can move, their faces showed a kind of hatred for the enemy, and they let go of it.

Indeed, they know that with their current poor form, they basically cannot win against these opponents.

But you can only use the 'Dragon and Tiger Pill' that you successfully brought back from the previous mission, such a tiger and wolf medicine that can stimulate your body's potential.

It is completely possible to leave all of these Hu pursuers here.

The problem is that the sequelae of that thing are too strong, and if they take it when they are in good health, the sequelae can make them lose half their lives, and they can lie down for a long time to ease their strength.

In the current situation of extreme weakness, no one knows whether they will be able to survive the sequelae after eating.

But what does he do so much? Everyone was fighting, fleeing, and fleeing again for days, like a lost dog, and the depression in their hearts was already at the extreme.

It's about to explode, and it's time to ignore everything.

Luckily, just as they were guarding the wounded and rookies behind them, the others formed a small arrow formation; When they took out a pill and were about to swallow it, the situation changed again.

To be more specific, it was after the group of Hu people came to the land of a stone's throw, but they all pulled the war horses one after another.

Suddenly, Hu Biao and the others obviously put the 'Dragon and Tiger Pill' on their lips, but they didn't immediately throw it in, and decided to see if there was a miracle happening.

Then, they were surprised to see the first few figures, actually in front of them.

He threw all the swords, bows, and armor on the ground.

After doing all this, he raised his hands high to show that he was not any threat, and then he kicked and beat the war horse and slowly approached this side.

Seeing this, Hu Biao simply stuffed the 'Dragon and Tiger Pill' in his hand into his belt, and whispered a sentence in his mouth:

"Don't rush to make a move, let's see what these people are going to say."

In such a situation, those people came to a stop when they were about ten paces away.

I glanced at it very silently, and the windmill behind Hu Biao held it high in his hand, behind the banner of the 'Tang Anxi Army' that was hunting in the air.

made a move that made Hu Biao and others surprise and lose their big teeth.

After Qi Qi dismounted, they all knelt on the ground, and after tearing off the gauze scarves on their faces to resist the wind and sand, they revealed the faces of Tang people, or the mixed blood of Tang people and Hu people.

One of the white-haired old men cried out excitedly with a crying voice in his mouth:

"Since the sixth year of Zhenyuan, the Beiting Protectorate fell in the year of the attack of the Tubo people, the United Glolu, and the Baifu Turks, and even the road back to the Tang Dynasty was cut off by the way back to the territory of the Hui people.

We and the abandoned people of the Tang Dynasty here have not seen the king's banner for eighteen years.

It's just that even if I dress up as a Hu person on weekdays and live incognito here; It is also a person who knows that life is a Datang person, and death is a ghost of Datang.

Please let the little second child dare to ask the general, after the general leaves today, will my Datang Heavenly Army come back? ”

"Yes, I, Hu Yitong, swear to the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth here, and one day lead the army back to the Western Regions, so that all the Hu people in the Western Regions know that the majesty of the Tang people cannot be blasphemed, and the heavenly power of the Tang Dynasty will not be offended by them.

At that time, there will be kindness and revenge, so that those Hu people know that this piece of land can only belong to Datang forever. ”

Raising the index finger and thumb of his right hand, Hu Biao said solemnly......

PS: Speed up a little, return to Chang'an as soon as possible, and start a new plot.
