Chapter 526: Rushing to cross the Drinking Horse River to get out of the sky
"Although there is no child left in the eye, it is because there are many mediocre talents in the world, and it is difficult to enter a certain eye. And this Duan Changshi is a rare genius, if the general can get ......" Zheng Junshi's voice gradually lowered, so low that only Cao Hu'er could hear it clearly.
After a long time, Cao Hu'er took a deep breath. "This person is so powerful?"
“…… This person was able to survive unscathed under such circumstances, and with the help of Princess Zhaoyang's various difficulties, even his strange tricks and even our army were quite helpful, and the simple method of boiling snowflake salt that he made made our army also had an extra way to make money, which shows his profound knowledge.
Now, Xu Shou's desire to get rid of him is so urgent, but he actually let him escape, it must be because he found out about Xu Shou's strategy, such a person is definitely a capable minister who is well versed in strategy and good at managing things. If the general does not take it, his people will eventually be used by the court, and it will be greatly detrimental to the general. ”
"The military advisor is high, it is Lao Cao's vision that is too narrow, you come here, protect the military advisor for Lao Cao, and move forward slowly, this commander will personally go to meet that Li Youwen for a while, and by the way, go to see the good minister who has become Cao's bag."
"If it is used by the general, it should be reused, if not, the only way to get rid of it is to ...... it quickly" Seeing Cao Hu'er turn over and jump on the horse's back, Zheng Junshi stepped forward uneasily, grabbed the reins of the horse, and admonished Cao Hu'er.
"Don't worry, what my old Cao can't get, others can't think of it." Cao Hu'er grinned, a mouthful of snow-white teeth, like the fangs of the wild wolf.
Watching Cao Hu'er lead his own soldiers to run away, Zheng Junshi frowned tightly, stroked the long flowing beard under his chin, and looked gloomy. "It's a pity, Duan Changshi, if you can surrender to the general, you deserve a strong help, but if you don't want to surrender to the general, then it's no wonder that Zheng is ruthless."

"I'm really curious...... You and Princess Zhaoyang went straight north, is there really a way to get out of the world? Zheng Junshi pondered for a long time, still unable to figure out what kind of way Duan Shaojun could have, so he could only shake his head helplessly, gave up this kind of brain-wasting exercise, turned over and jumped on horseback, and went north with the dozens of cavalry guards left by Cao Hu'er.
After Chen Jing returned to the army, he ordered the army to be scattered, every five cavalry in a group, forming a skirmish line with a straight line length of more than ten miles, and began to slowly search carefully to the north, while sending people to the camp to report the current situation to Xu Shouyu.
Li Youwen was lying in the sleigh, and Xiuniang was sitting on her side to take care of it, the sleigh was gliding briskly and silently on the snow, and its speed was no less than that of the galloping horses galloping on the snow around her.
The blizzard has stopped, and the snow has become much smaller, and the fluttering snow flakes are scattered and falling, falling on the face and hands, bringing a slight chill. The embroidery lady took a breath of heat in her hands, and after helping Li Youwen tuck the outermost animal skin that blocked the wind, she put on the black veil that blocked her vision again, and also put on her gloves again, her face could still feel the cold wind of the knife's general tax profit, but her hands were no longer cold.
Xiuniang couldn't help but turn her head and glance at Duan Shaojun not far away, this talented Duan Changshi, who had made a sleigh and gloves, was riding his horse thoughtfully at this moment, raising his head from time to time, looking at the gloomy sky, and communicating with Qi Dazuo beside him.
"You mean it won't snow for long today?" Duan Shaojun couldn't help but feel a little entangled in his heart, at this time, he naturally hoped that the snow would fall as hard as possible, so that he could cover up the traces of himself and the others.
However, Qi Da, who had lived in this northern place for a long time, told Duan Shaojun that this snow would stop soon, so that such a concentrated hoof print would point out a clear direction to those enemies.
This made Duan Shaojun's heart sink a little, according to Qi Da's statement, this area was at least a day and a half away from where the Qihu people stayed. When the pursuers are cautious, it is really a bit troublesome.
"Don't worry too much, Childe, we have a lot of horses, and they have set off before those people arrive at our camp, if they want to catch up with us, they must spare no effort to pursue frantically, but in that case, it will cause a lack of follow-up, as long as we can catch up with the pursuers, arrive at the bank of the Nayinma River and cross the river, if they want to catch up with us again, it will be difficult." Because there, it was already the sphere of influence of the Khuhus. ”
"How far is the Yuma River, and will that river freeze in such a season?" Duan Shaojun smashed his mouth and asked carefully.
Qi Da fished out the itchy brows, and while riding his horse, he patiently explained the geography of this area to Duan Shaojun. "The Yinma River is about ten zhang wide, the river is turbulent, and it never freezes. And there are few people on the river, and the fishermen will not cast their nets to fish in such turbulent waters, only about one hundred and twenty miles to the northeast, where the width of the Yuma River is suddenly wide to a distance of nearly fifty zhang, where the flow of the river is slow, and there are often people who cast their nets in autumn and summer to catch fish, but as long as it is winter, it will freeze......"
"One hundred and twenty miles, in such weather, I am afraid that it will take more than a day to get there, it is too wasteful of time. But how can we cross the river? Duan Shaojun couldn't help but rub his eyebrows a little big, and asked Qi Da.
"Childe, don't worry, there is a forest on the bank of the Yinma River, we only need to make a few rafts and take turns to cross the river, and the enemy is chasing a lot of soldiers, and if you want to cross the river, you will inevitably mobilize the army, so we will definitely be distanced again." Qi Da's explanation made Duan Shaojun breathe a sigh of relief.
It is naturally best to be able to try not to meet the enemy face to face, except for Ma Duo on his side, there are too few people, and it is impossible to fight an ambush. The most important thing now is to break into the territory of the Khithu people and find the second prince who is quite prestigious and powerful among the Khithu people. Only in this way can it be considered safe to get out of the world.
Of course, there is also a more difficult problem is Li Youwen's little girl's skin, and now Duan is still regretting it vigorously, why is he so anxious, endure it for a few more minutes and then go in, maybe that girl will sleep like a dead pig, and after waking up, she will not be too angry with herself.
But now, it's already a boat. That General Li didn't know how much he hated himself, and he must pay attention in the future, he must not have the opportunity to be alone with this woman, maybe this woman will think about how to chop herself into meat to vent her hatred.

Thinking all the way, in order to speed up and get rid of the pursuers, everyone didn't even have time to pause for lunch, and directly nibbled on the cold boiled water in the water bladder on horseback. Hurried and hurried, and finally, when it was nearly dusk, we arrived at the raging Yuma River.
The rushing river rumbled, and the white foam and splash of water melted away the snow on both banks. The water flow is very fast, seeing this scene, Duan Shaojun can't help but be a little worried, with such a water potential, it is really difficult to cross the river.
Duan Shaojun reined in the reins of his horse, kept the mount under him at a safe enough distance from the river, and asked in a low voice to Qi Da beside him, "Is this kind of water too big?" ”
"Don't worry, Childe, the little one used to cross the river here with the lord in the past, and the water potential at that time was not smaller than now." Qi Da looked very confident, and specially pointed to the small forest not far away: "Take materials from there to make a raft, and you can't delay for a long time." ”
"Then let's go to the wood, don't let those pursuers arrive, then we will be defeated." Li Shenjin said quite nervously, he didn't want to be picked up by those people after doing so many things.
"That's okay, Xu Qing, let everyone get off the horse, hurry up and go to the logging to get materials, and strive to make a raft to cross the river as soon as possible." Duan Shaojun gritted his teeth, just pass it, even if he falls into the river and is afraid of a yarn, his brother is also a strong swimmer, and he can swim in a river that is only ten zhang wide.
Over there, there was a lot of wood, Duan Shaojun was idle, walked to the sleigh where Li Youwen was staying, and saw that Li Youwen, who was still drowsy, still had no sign of waking up, so he stretched out his hand to give Li Youwen a pulse.
