The caravan didn't speak, just nodded heavily, and then rode away, after they left, Lu Shixi stepped forward and desperately stuffed the cake into his mouth, while Shen Long took water and fed the horse first, with so much money, it was a bit difficult to rely on people's backs.

"I said, what are you doing with all this money?" Lu Shishi finally couldn't help but ask, Shen Long didn't answer immediately, but shot out like lightning and took out his waist card from his clothes, and the waist card had the words Xuanwei Junjing Yue Camp written on it.

"Give it back! Give it back! Lu Shixi rushed up and tore desperately, he couldn't even care about the cake at this time, even though he had become a soldier, he was still proud of his identity as a soldier of the Xuanwei Army.

Shen Long returned the waist card to him, then took out his waist card and saluted with his crossed hands, "In the Ninth Cavalry Team of the Xuange Battalion of the Wuwei Army of the Tang Dynasty, Guo Yuanzheng." ”

Lu Shishi carefully took the waist card and put it in his arms, and then saluted back, "Xuanwei Army, Lu Shixi!" Then he asked, "Isn't the Wuwei Army in Qiuzi?" How did you get here? ”

"The Xuanwei army should be stationed in Khotan, and now that Khotan has fallen, Brother Lu has suffered these days!" As soon as Shen Long finished speaking, he saw Lu Shishi's eyes red, Shen Long took out the blood-stained papers, pointed to the money and said, "This is the newly cast military expenses of King Guo for Xizhou City, let the Ninth Cavalry Team of the Xuange Battalion send it to Xizhou, the military order is like a mountain, and no penny is missing!" Now that I am the only one left in the Ninth Cavalry Corps, I will also send this military expense to Xizhou for a penny! ”

Now the supreme commander of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions is the king of Wuwei County, the protector of the capital of Anxi, and Guo Xin, the envoy of the four towns of Anxi, he is the nephew of the famous general Guo Ziyi of the Tang Dynasty, the first year of Tang Suzong (760), the military town of Hexi was mostly captured by Tubo, and in the second year of Yongtai (766), the ambassador of Shuofang Jiedu, Zhongshu ordered Guo Ziyi to ask the imperial court to send an envoy to patrol Hexi, Anxi and other places, and asked to place the governor of Gua, Sha, Gan, Liang, and Su; General Yunlu and General Zuo Wuwei Guo Xin were ordered to go to Hexi, Anxi and other places, and it has been 25 years, and Guo Xin will stick to it for a long time in the future.

"Woo woo woo~~~" Lu Shishi howled and cried, and it took a long time to breathe, "Xuanwei Jun...... I am the only one left in the Xuanwei Army, and the city is gone! The brothers are all dead! I'm the only one left..."

Shen Long patted him on the shoulder, picked up the water bag and let Lu Shiwei drink a few sips of water, after this incident, how relaxed the relationship between the two was, Lu Shixi finally began to trust him, he took out a few blood-stained family letters from his arms, "When the city was broken, the sound of killing was everywhere, and the brothers all stuffed the family letters into my hands, saying that I was the youngest, if Wuwei Army could only live one, it should be me who lived, so that I could bring these family letters back to Chang'an and send them to their families......"

Shen Long looked at Lu Shishi silently, the suffering in the Western Regions made him look a lot older than his real age, but despite this, he had to be in his forties at the earliest, and he was still the youngest soldier in the Xuanwei Army in his forties.

"Master Jun, I'm not a bad person, I'm not a deserter, I just want to send my brothers' letters back! Just let me go! Lu XIV turned to plead.

"Let's go? How did you get back to Chang'an alone? You don't even have a horse! Shen Long put away the food and water given by the merchant, led the horse and continued to Xizhou, "You better go to Xizhou with me, wait until I finish my errand in Xizhou, and then ask Yang Jiedu for a horse and let you ride back to Chang'an." ”

Xizhou is located in the northeast of Khotan, east of Qiuci, the two of them are now located between Qiuci and Xizhou, if you want to return to Chang'an, you must go to Xizhou first, so Lu Shishi did not object, and continued to Xizhou with Shen Long.

It didn't take long for them to encounter a sandstorm, and Guo Yuanzheng's horse died in the sandstorm in the advertisement, but this time with Shen Long's care, the horse's life was finally saved, and when the sandstorm dispersed, these horses were still alive, but they still didn't have the strength to continue to carry so much money.

Shen Long didn't say a word, he immediately unloaded the money and hung it on himself, seeing that Lu Shishi's mouth was wide open, "You are still wearing armor, and with so much money on your back, how can you get to Xizhou?" ”

"It doesn't matter, you bring food and water, and help me lead the horse!" These weights can still be handled by Shen Long, under Lu Shixi's surprised gaze, he carried the money on his back and walked towards Xizhou step by step, Lu Shiwei looked at the horse, and then looked at the food and water in his hand, as if he wanted to get rid of Shen Long and run away alone, but in the end he gave up, caught up with Shen Long in a few steps, and silently unloaded a bag of money from him on his back.

In the evening, the two of them rested by the campfire, and Shen Long listened to Lu Shishi's chatter again about the fall of Khotan, and so early the next morning, the two of them got up early and hurried away while the sun was not very strong.

At noon, the bandits who were temporarily stopped by the sandstorm yesterday finally caught up, Lu Shishi stretched out his hand, "Guo Ye, give me a knife, let's let this group of rabbit cubs see the ability of our Tang Army." "At this time, there is no difference between the Xuanwei Army and the Wuwei Army, and everyone is a soldier of the Tang Dynasty.

"Just a few bandits, it's still hard for me, you guard the horse, don't let the horse run away!" Shen Long unloaded the money bag, clenched the spear with both hands and took the initiative to attack.

"Guo Ye!" It is not a ...... that an infantryman dared to take the initiative to attack in the face of several cavalrymen Before the words in Lu Shixi's stomach could be spoken, he saw Shen Long's spear stabbing the leader of the thieves off his horse like lightning, and then swept in a circle, and two more thieves fell off their horses, and in the blink of an eye, the enemy lost half of them.

Without waiting for the enemy to react, Shen Long quickly got on the horse, stabbing left and right, the Yang family gun showed its majesty hundreds of years in advance, and in just a moment, these thieves were all cleaned up by Shen Long, and none of those horses ran away, all of them were controlled by Shen Long.

Lu Shishi's mouth was wide open, and he couldn't slow down for a long time, did this group of people come to rob or send horses? He didn't know that it was not the first time that Shen Long had done such a thing.

"Search them and find out the water and food!" Shen Long commanded, Lu Shishi went busily, and after a while, he came back with a full harvest, and it was not a problem for them to get drinking water and food from here to Xizhou.

With enough horses and food, the two of them went a lot smoother on their journey to Xizhou, and at noon on the third day, they finally came to Xizhou, reported their identities and intentions, and Yang Zhenggu, the capital of Beiting stationed in Xizhou, came out.
