    After a while, Hu Chun came to report: "General Ha, brothers are tired from standing. It's time to take a rest. It will be dawn soon."

    Ha San said: "Master Hu is really confused. It's not even the fourth watch yet."

    Hu Chun felt angry when he saw that he was disrespecting her more and more, and said: "You are not stupid because of your humble position. You adults can see for yourself."

    Ha San didn't pay attention to his attitude. He actually walked to the door and looked into the distance. The east had revealed a red light, and the torch had no effect. He was surprised and said: "Sir, it's really bright. We  Is this chicken man (the one who tells the time) confused?"

    Chen Lu said: "The Chinese army's tent is also burning chicken incense. How could it be confusing? In the desert, the sun rises early and sets late. You didn't pay attention last night. You got up before the sun set."  "

    Li Da sat on the chair and remained silent. Then he said feebly: "Please report the battle situation."

    Hu Chun said: "Three people died and six were injured, and nine horses and one camel died among the livestock. What to do with the dead horses and camels that were not injured?"

    Li Da said: "Put it on the car and go back to stew it to reward the soldiers."

    Dolan said: "No, adults. These flat-haired beasts are the most poisonous. Almost all our infectious diseases are related to them. If you can't eat them, just leave them in the desert."

    Li Da nodded and said, "Leave immediately."

    Ha San said goodbye and sent sentry riders to explore the road on camels.  Everyone took a few mouthfuls of the dry food they brought with them. Because the commander asked them to save water, some just drank one or two mouthfuls, while others just drank until they had enough.

    Everyone frozen all night, finally slowly came to the sun.  Follow the official road and walk back.  At noon, I saw the outpost, where they were waiting for the group. When I saw everyone, I didn't say anything and pointed to the ground.

    Everyone looked at the ground. The bodies of sand bat swallows were everywhere, as well as the camels that died at night. Some of the camels had their stomachs eviscerated. This shows that there are other permanent residents in the desert.

    Li Da was stunned. He got out of the car and saw Chen Lu and Hasan walking over. He pretended to be calm and said: "It's not like we have never lost our way before. What are we afraid of? Tell the soldiers not to panic, we will be there soon."  I will find a way." The tone is different from yesterday, this is an official.

    Ha replied three times: "I've already said it, but it seems like it's all in vain."

    Chen Lu dismounted and murmured a few words to Da Qing Ma. Da Qing Ma shook his head. Nalan also tried the horse head crutches, but there was no reaction.

    Wenda came over and said: "Sir, the soldiers started fighting because of the water. I whipped them several times to stop them. This is not an option. We should find the road as soon as possible. Even if we can't find the road, we should find the water source first.  "

    Now Nalan looked at Wenda, and he didn¡¯t like it at all, and said: ¡°It doesn¡¯t hurt to stand and talk, where can we find the road? Where can we find the water source?¡±

    Chen Lu waved his hand and said, "Sir, for this plan, we have to give it a try. Send out the camels to find the water source, and now fill your stomach. I am afraid that if we go like this again, the soldiers will collapse."

    Li Da said helplessly: "Okay, let's set up camp first and send out to find water. There are too many corpses here. Set up camp two miles ahead. We will make some excuses after we find the water source." Ha San and Wen Da took the order and left.

    The scorching sun was like a big furnace hanging in the sky, and the officers and soldiers were like steaming and grilling prawns. Some of them not only took off their winter clothes, but also all their close-fitting clothes, but they were still uncomfortable with the heat.  Ha San saw them shirtless and ordered them to put on their clothes. Those who disobeyed were whipped several times before they stopped.

    Water, water, is water, water has become a constant problem.  Some of the dry food was almost dry. Even if the soldiers were hungry, they would find it hard to swallow.  The several jars of water at the food post did not dare to be touched at all. Ha San had already given the order to die. The water was reserved for several adults and the wounded. It was necessary to ensure that they had enough water.  Otherwise, come and see us.

    The officers and soldiers leaned on the scorching beach and fell asleep in a daze.  After two hours, people looking for water sources came back one after another. They searched for a twenty-mile radius, but there was no water and no end of the vast desert could be seen.

    Li Da was almost desperate.  At night, a bright moon hung in the sky. People had no food, horses had no grass, and there was no water. Some horses had fallen.

    The weather is getting colder, and the thirst during the day has passed. Everyone feels cold and hungry again, and unspeakable sadness and fear arise in their hearts.  This is morale. When morale is low, defeats will follow.

    At this time, the familiar sound of wind came, and something like a dark cloud covered the moonlight.  These damn flat-haired beasts are here again.  but heThey circled around the mission's original location, and flew towards the new location in a moment, just like a dark cloud.

    Ha San gave the order to line up to meet the enemy.  Unexpectedly, these sand bat swallows did not attack. They hovered for a while and then flew away like dark clouds.  The soldiers were stunned for a moment, followed by a burst of cheers.

    Li Da also put his forehead with his hands to thank the Holy Spirit and thank God.

    At this time, Chen Lu was also secretly rejoicing, but he fell into deep thought.  Last night, the sand bats and swallows came one after another, fearing endless killings, sucking human blood with great taste, and they seemed to have more than enough to drink. They would rather break into pieces than flinch. What happened today? Are you afraid of my old man?  Or are you afraid of my old man's reputation?

    No, absolutely not.

    These beasts are not familiar with me?  Why did they choose to give up?  What made them choose to give up this once-in-a-lifetime delicious meal.

    Chen Lu was recalling that they initially went to the old camp to attack, but when they arrived at the new camp, they left decisively.  There is a problem, there is definitely a problem. This is the land of the desert.

    At this time, Chen Lu felt sand hitting his face, and small whirlwinds formed under his feet.

    He suddenly realized that these beasts were really smart.

    Chen Lu rushed towards the Chinese army's tent and shouted: "Your Majesty, the envoy, please quickly order the camp to be moved back to the original station."

    Li Da looked at Chen Lu suspiciously and said, "Everyone is tired and hungry. Those beasts just happened to fly away. Let's take a good rest so we can set off to find a way tomorrow."

    Chen Lu was anxious: "Sir, it's too late to explain. Please give the order quickly. If it's too late, it's too late."

    Nalan saw that Chen Lu was so anxious that he was confused, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, Mr. Chen never talks nonsense."

    This is a bit nonsense. If Chen Zicheng doesn¡¯t talk nonsense, there will be no such people in the officialdom.

    What Nalan wants to say is that Chen Lu never lies on business matters. Without a prerequisite, it seems to have an extra layer of sarcasm and sarcasm.  This is actually a self-conjecture about the human heart.  Not only did Nalan not have this intention, but he was a bit de Gaulle and meant to flatter, in order to gain Chen Lu's understanding little by little.

    But Chen Lu felt something else.

    Li Da was hesitant and called Ha San and Wen Da to discuss the matter.  Although Ha San was unhappy with Chen Lu, he could be regarded as a good public servant of the people who understood the general situation and took the overall situation into consideration. He never doubted Chen Lu's judgment.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
