Chapter 351: A Boy
Many people said, "Master Gao, it's not a way to run like this, the water is also available, you take the brigade to drill the forest, and I will take a few people to lead them away along the lake." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Gao Jun only felt how inconvenient it was to move with the wounded at this time, Siqing couldn't ride a horse, so he could only hold it. The speed of the charcoal fire was not slow, but now he could only run.
"We can't divide our troops anymore, and besides, the lake is so empty, how many people do you have to lure the enemy and see it clearly, this method will not work. We'll drag them a little longer, and then we'll go into the woods. ā
Gao Jun sent Su Tuoer and Rei Khangul out alone, and he had been worried about them all these days. According to the current progress, Su Tuoer and the others should have arrived in the direction of Broken Leaf at this time, but they did not arrive as scheduled.
He was to drag the enemy to the shores of the lake, and let them scatter their thousands of men and horses to various places around the lake for two or three hundred miles. "They will definitely guard the lake and keep us from approaching, but in this way, his thousands of people will be too few." You'll have to add a few more people. ā
Many people are inspired by the words of the tall man, according to the tall man's words, then the other party's four or five thousand troops are too insufficient. I heard the tall man say while running, "He dares not to guard the lake?" Well, let's find a place to hide in the woods, and have a solid rest to eat, drink, and rest. He guards the lake? So many thousands of people can guard a fart when they are dispersed! Drinking water is not just for me! ā
Heida's brigade has been chasing the Tianshan herdsmen from afar by the lake, and they can always see their shadows, but they can't catch up. Heida scolded his little leaders for not working hard, and when he urged closely, the distance between the two sides narrowed a little, but he ran and pulled away again.
These people had already heard of the power of Tianshan Mu, and no one took the lead. A small leader said to Hei Da, "What are we anxious about, as long as we don't let him run away, so that they don't have time to eat and drink, see how long they can drag on!" ā
Until noon, these people from Tianshan Mu only picked up the water bag and drank two sips of water on the horse, and the shredded meat didn't think about it. At this time, a hurricane suddenly blew on the shore of Lake Balkhash! The wind came from above the lake, and it blew so that people could not sit firmly on their horses, and for a time the yellow sand covered the sky and there was no one on the other side.
With a wave of his hand, the tall man turned into the mountain forest on the left, and disappeared for a while.
The strong wind blew from afternoon to dusk, causing the sky and the earth to change color, the tiger roaring and the dragon groaning, and it was very difficult for the herdsmen to march even in the mountains and forests. In a depression in the woods, the tall man motioned for people to stop and get food. Many set up secret posts around the area, and others set up pots and fires to gather the water in the water bags.
Someone was worried that people would catch up, so the tall man said with a swollen mouth, "Their brigade is inconvenient to move in such a large mountain forest. He probably wouldn't dare to spread the net in such weather, and I wouldn't mind eating him another if he dared. ā
The fire under the small pot was blown weak by the wind, and after cooking the shredded meat, Gao Jun tried to let Siqing eat some, but she closed her mouth tightly and her eyes didn't open, and there was no trace of blood on her face. Master Gao had no choice but to let the soup of the boiled meat cool and pour it into her between her teeth.
When it was dark, Siqing seemed to have some energy, and opened her eyes and asked Master Gao what kind of place she had been. She saw the tall man's swollen mouth, and a look of guilt appeared in her eyes.
The wind was not small at all, except for the sentry men, everyone else untied the yak blankets to find a place to rest. Lord Gao settled Siqing and just lay down in a daze, Duoduo ran over and woke him up, "Lord Gao, I saw someone in the back." ā
Gao Jun got up and saw a boy they had brought over, looking like he was in his teens. Many said they saw him when they searched ahead, guarding a two-wheeled cart full of firewood on the mountain road. And he sat on the ground next to the car and cried.
Many people said, "You can't guess it, Master Gao, he can understand what we say." ā
When the tall man heard this, he became interested, and asked someone to light a torch, only to see that the boy was not tall, but his figure was not very thin, his lips were chapped in the wind, soaked in blood, and his chin was bare.
"Where is your home? Why are you here so late? ā
The child saw that although the mouth of the person in front of him was swollen, his tone was not vicious, so he raised his hand and pointed to the northwest, "My house is thirty miles over there, and I came out to chop wood in the morning, and I encountered a strong wind, so I rushed home when it was about to get dark, but there was a strong wind, and I couldn't pull the car!" As he spoke, tears rolled into his eyes again.
Many Duoduo interjected, "What kind of cart is that, not even a donkey with so much firewood,"
Gao Jun extinguished the torch and ordered someone to bring him shredded yak meat for him to eat, before asking, "Who is in the family?" ā
The boy said, "My father, my mother, my uncle, my aunt, my aunt, my aunt." ā
"There are so many people in the family, someone should always come to pick you up, why are you crying." He looked at the sky, and it was already early in the morning. In the middle of the night, Gao Jun was also a little strange, there were so many people in the boy's family but no one came to pick him up, it stands to reason that he should always know his general direction when he came out to fetch firewood. Master Gao said to many people, "You take someone and send him back." ā
The boy was happy, he couldn't see any malice from the performance of the person in front of him, so he noticed Siqing lying on the ground, "Was this sister bitten by a snake?" I know a way to cure her! ā
"Oh?!" Gao Jun only felt joy descending from the sky, and the boy said, "You have to follow me, and I have a way." ā
The wind was still blowing, people were picking up, and the boy's words made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, after all, it was good news.
A short distance ahead, down the slope, a small two-wheeled wooden cart stopped on a narrow dirt road. Although it didn't look big, it was about as tall as the boy's body. Under the strong wind, it is no wonder that this little car makes him cry with sadness.
Many of them found a horse, and tried to reluctantly get it into the chariot, but could not fit it in, so one of the shepherds jumped down and pulled the cart, and the boy rode on his horse, and everyone set out in the wind and the moon.
Because someone was pulling a cart underground, these people didn't walk fast, so Gao Jun talked to the boy while walking. Just after eating shredded meat, and someone sent him away, the child's fear and worry in his heart were all gone, and he slowly talked more.
His name is Su Qingfang, he is ten years old this year, and his family lives in the city of Achu, thirty miles to the northwest, where is the ground of Tocharo, and the city of Achu is surrounded by four mountains, surrounded by dense forests, and ordinary people can't find it if they want to find it.
When the tall man asked him why he spoke Middle-earth, the boy said that his father had taught him when he was a child. With the exception of his mother, uncle, and aunt, the whole family spoke this kind of language to each other, and only outside did they speak Tocharian. Gao Jun understood a little when he heard it.
When the wind died down when it was almost dawn, the men and horses slowly entered a long valley, and at one place the boy said to Gao Jun, "My house is in the village ahead, you must go here to take shelter, otherwise the patrolling Tocharian cavalry will see it and interrogate it." ā
From the direction of his finger, it was, like everywhere else, obscured by the trees on the side of the road, and there was no way to see it.
Gao Jun asked Duoduo to pull the cart himself, took him home before dawn, and picked a pony and gave it to him. Then the men followed the boy's instructions and went into the woods. When the people and horses opened the branches and leaves on their faces and explored for another one or two miles, they suddenly opened up in front of them.
There is a small area of open and flat terrain, and there is a blue sky in the jungle that obscures the sky, and when you go further inside, someone has found a mountain spring, which is really appropriate. So, while asking people to inspect the terrain and arrange defenses, the tall man waited for many people to come back. (To be continued.) )
