Chapter 140: Desert Night Walk
Gao Jun beat the horse and flew out of the village, because he was worried about Siqing, and he did not delay on the road. When he passed by Chiting to guard and capture, he just waved his hand towards the earth city, and kept coming north. Now is the time when the grass grows and the warbler flies, and when I look into the distance, there is an endless amount of green, and it would be a good errand to bring the herd out at this time.
Halfway through, Mr. Gao encountered several groups of northern herdsmen who had driven cattle and sheep, and they were in a hurry and did not see a leisurely demeanor. As soon as Zhu Ma asked, an old herdsman said, "There is another war within Jieli, so let's go and hide." ”
After asking more carefully, Master Gao knew what was happening on the grassland, and no one knew about Simo Khan's illness, so Lord Gao couldn't help but worry about Siqing, and added a few more whips on the horse.
On the night of the next day, Mr. Gao arrived at the old place of the Jieli Department, and when he went there, there was no one, and none of the tents and personnel were gone. Only the moon in the sky after fifteen years of the moon, shining on the ground a few unburied corpses and specks of blood, and a few flags with folded flagpoles were thrown indiscriminately on the ground, thinking that there had been a fight here not long ago.
The tall man looked around, and there was no light in the distance, and the black light did not know which direction to go, so he had to dismount here, let the charcoal fire gnaw some grass casually, and took dry food to satisfy his hunger. He wanted to wait until dawn before he could make plans. So he drew an oolong knife and dug a shallow pit in the sand, so that he could sit in it to resist the night wind, and the charcoal fire lay on the edge of his pit for half the night.
Gao Jun was sleeping in the pit when he heard the sound of horses' hooves rolling not far from him, and the sound of hooves made people's hearts beat. The charcoal fire also alertly pricked up his ears but did not get up. When Master Gao heard that there were no less than 2,000 people in the past, these people were heading east, and he got up in the dark and flew on his horse. Follow the path of these people to chase behind, and soon they will have the title of horsetail with this team.
The team was like a long run, with no torches in the team, no one to say a word, just a vigorous horse. The last person had noticed that someone had come up on horseback, thinking it was a peeing team. No one looked back at Master Gao carefully. It was also hidden in the thick night fog by the moonlight, and no one noticed the red official robe on Gao Jun's body, and he followed them all the way to the east.
Gao Jun thought to himself, regardless of whether he was friend or foe, he didn't worry about finding Siqing first. After hearing from the herdsmen on the road about the civil strife in the Jieli Ministry, the biggest worry about this matter was Siqing.
Since there was a war in the desert, the people who went to the ranch village to report at least a few words, but the people who went only said that Simo was seriously ill, so there were many strange things in this matter. Master Gao intuitively felt that this was not someone sent out by Simo.
Simo originally had three brothers and sisters, the second brother Sina died in his own hands, and his sister Siqing married him, and the person closest to him was Siqing, and he was an opponent, and he would probably think of catching Siqing in his hands. In that way, no matter whether the situation is favorable to him or not, Siqing will be a bargaining chip with some weight.
Thinking of this, Master Gao was a little anxious. On the contrary, he hated these people for running slowly, and the most important thing for him now was to find these people.
About half an hour passed. The front of the brigade suddenly slowed down, and someone from the front came one by one, "Rest on the spot and eat dry food." Everyone dismounted, and Gao Jun took the charcoal fire and found a bush to stay a little farther away. These people have no one to talk to. Each took out dry food and water bags for his own use. Some of these people sat on the ground, and some lay down on the ground, and it seemed that they had run a short distance.
It's deep in the desert, with few tall trees and rolling hills. A person eating dry food seems to have a stomach, hunched over to find a more hidden place. All at once he saw the bushes. Run to him.
The tall man squatted on the ground, and the man came over and took off his pants and squatted next to him, and then a foul smell wafted out. Not far away, several people got up one after another, whispered a few curses to a farther place.
Gao Jun and Siqing have been together for some days, and the two have been alone many times, and Siqing also speaks the commonly used Hu language to Gao Daren when he has nothing to do, so it is not difficult for Gao Jun to communicate with this person.
Master Gao asked, "You have a stomach trouble with such an action tonight, and you are not afraid of dragging us down!" ”
The man's stomach was already relaxed, and he laughed in a low voice, "You're not like me yet!" And he said, "Besides, Simo has become a frightened bird, and we need not be so careful." He got up.
The tall man had already understood, and flew up, and a hand like an iron tong pinched his neck, making him unable to break free. The other hand and leg and foot cooperated to wrap and suppress him, and after a while he stopped moving.
The tall man dragged him behind the bushes, undressed him, changed his robes, rolled them up and put them under the saddle. At this time, the large team began to move again, and someone in front of him looked back and said, "Hurry up, come and chase us later." Then he mounted his horse with the brigade and galloped forward.
The tall man had already changed his attire, and came out from behind the bushes and got on the charcoal fire. When he saw a lonely horse grazing, he went up and untied a bag of arrows, a bow for himself, and a knife for nothing. He didn't care about the horse, and chased after him on the coals.
Gao Jun has been to Simo's old place in the farthest place in the desert, and now he has run blindly in the dark, and he has long been unable to argue about things. I saw that the horse team turned to the left, and the ground under their feet suddenly rose, and then there were gradually taller bushes around the horse. The night mist that permeated the grassland had reached his feet, and Gao Jun could see through the hazy moonlight that the horse team had gone up the tall hillside.
The lower part of the hill is three arrows away, and it is a col surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the terrain is flat. A white dome of tents was revealed on the floating level of the night fog, and some of the tents were also lit by lights, and the drums that chime the time were heard from time to time.
As if ordered to do so, these men drew their swords one after another, examined the bows and arrows they carried with them, and prepared for the assault.
Gao Jun was secretly worried about the people in the mountain pass, and said in his heart, no matter how you say it, you should know some routines for marching and camping, how can people come over for a long distance and not notice it at all! What about the Dark Whistle? What about the Wandering Whistle? Let people rush like this in their sleep, and you will no longer be able to get together 20,000 people!
He was more worried about Siqing, and he didn't know if she was down there. Seeing that these people were already arranging the order of the attack, the leader probably wanted to divide the troops into three ways, one team of horses to attack head-on, and the other two teams to outflank and rush through together. Gao Jun rode the charcoal fire and slowly squeezed to the front, and said, "This plan is not appropriate. ”
A small boss scolded in a low voice, "Who told you to speak!" Don't die. ”
Gao Jun said, "There is still an old mother at home, and I will only say it if I want to die...... If we rush down so boldly, if people occupy the mountain on three sides and the mountain pass is blocked, can we still go back? ”
When the little leader heard this, he felt justified and hurried to find him. After a while, he came back again, "Who was talking just now?" Gao Jun stood out, and the man said, "Count yourself smart, let someone go to the mountain col to explore, beware of being ambushed," and pointed at Gao Jun, "It's you, let you talk more." And he said, "We saw that you had kindled a fire and rushed down when we saw it." "Say goodbye, give him a fire fold.
This man's arrangement was exactly what the tall man wanted, and he almost laughed out loud, hurriedly drew the charcoal fire, picked up the oolong knife, and quietly walked down the gentle and tall hillside, under the cover of the bushes.
