Chapter 41, Escape

"Report, general, the army has gone out of the east gate and chased straight this way."

This is expected. Fu Jiezi had no choice but to shout, "Go south!" Reunate with the elite army!"

There is a desert in the east, and it is unpredictable to live and die. In the north is the base camp of the Huns, and in the west is the Guzi Kingdom, which is also a vassal of the Huns. The only way to go is exquisite. Fu Jiezi also talked about military tactics. At the end of this road, any military tactics will lose their role.

One hundred men rode to the south, approaching the direction of Kunlun Mountain, and the Jingguo is at the foot of Kunlun Mountain.

At this time, at dusk, Loulan City had gradually drifted away. There were only thunderous Xiongnu pursuers behind them. Fu Jiezi ordered them to go quickly and did not have a moment of rest along the way. However, there were wounded in the army, and the Xiongnu soldiers were chasing them closer and closer. Fu Jiezi roughly calculated that this time he went south to meet the elite army. If it goes well, it will take three days. If he doesn't meet the elite army, things will be much worse.

Su Qiaoer was turned upside down all the way in the carriage. She had cried several times. She came to the Western Regions with her father to see the scenery. Unexpectedly, this kind of thing happened as soon as she arrived in Loulan. Her father was also landed in Loulan City. She didn't know how the Xiongnu soldiers would deal with him.

The third time I woke up, the carriage overturned.

Su Qiaoer got up from the ground. Huo Yi rushed over and pulled her and said anxiously, "Sister Qiaoer, how are you?" Su Qiaoer cried and shook her head and did not answer.

At this time, it had escaped for three hours, and the Han corps had already been exhausted. Fu Jiezi ordered the army to rectify and rest for the first time, looking at the night in front of him and frowned.

Zhao Xiong's wound was relapsed. At this time, his whole body had begun to have a fever. Huo Yi did not care about fatigue to help Zhao Xiong bandage the wound again and fed water and medicine. He did not realize that he was the son of General Sima.

Fu Jiezi looked at the night in front of him and fell into silence. Lu Ming turned back from the horse in front of him and said, "General, it's time to be a branch road. Going south is the Gobi, and going east is the desert. What should we do?"

Fu Jiezi paused for a moment and returned to the army to see Zhao Xiong and some of the wounded. Su Qiaoer cried, but had no effect. Looking at the painful appearance of the wounded, she was not idle and began to help the military doctor and Huo Yi to do some simple care.

Zhao Xiong wanted to get up but was stopped by Fu Jiezi. The Han army around him ate some dry food. Fu Jiezi talked about the situation here and said, "There are two roads in front now, one is to walk the Gobi, so that the Xiongnu army can catch up at any time, and we can't escape. If we go to the desert, the advantage of the Xiongnu army will be lost, but we are also approaching death.

The army was silent, and no one could come up with an idea.

Su Qiaoer was still wiping her eyes and looking at Fu Jiezi with some hatred. Who let him leave his father? Therefore, she deliberately ignored what Fu Jiezi said, but at this time, it was related to life and death. Everyone listened with breath, and she did not dare to cry.

Fu Jiezi looked at her eyes. How could this white girl not see what she was thinking? She sighed and said, "If we go to the Gobi, the heavy cavalry of the Huns will come to us and we are not our opponents. So now change to the desert, so that the advantage of the Xiongnu cavalry will disappear. If God doesn't accept it, we can still go out alive.

The army is silent, and now they are dealing with death no matter where they go. Fu Jiezi looked at the crowd. The unparalleled pride just now was also exhausted in this long road, but Su Qiaoer seemed nothing. Su Qiaoer has no idea about death and won't think about so many things.

Take a break. Fu Jiezi ate some dry food. Seeing how Huo Yi fed Su Qiaoer, she didn't eat it. Thinking of Su's father's remark, although he didn't really marry this girl, his perspective on her in his heart still changed. He came forward and said, "Huo Yi, go take a break for a while. We'll be on our way immediately."

Huo Yi wink at Su Qiaoer, indicating that if she didn't eat it any more, Fu Jiezi would get angry.

Su Qiaoer was a little afraid of Fu Jiezi, but at this time, she didn't eat it. Unexpectedly, Fu Jiezi sat aside and did not persuade her to eat, but sat quietly without saying a word. Su Qiaoer felt uncomfortable, and she couldn't sit aside or cry.

The Han army was at the junction of the Gobi and the desert. At this time, the sky was dark and there was no way out, and there was no way. Lu Ming checked the water and dry food, which were not very sufficient, especially the drinking water of horses and camels.

At this time, Fu Jiezi suddenly frowned slightly. At this time, Lu Ming reported, "General, this time is a heavy cavalry, and the number of people is about 1,000." Fu Jiezi hummed, took out a few dry buns from his side, and handed them to Su Qiaoer, "After eating, let's go immediately."

Su Qiaoer felt a little puzzled. Listening to Fu Jiezi's words, she suddenly felt less nervous and didn't want to be awkward anymore. She picked up the steamed bun and nibbled it up.

She is really hungry.

"Master, according to the map left by Bo Wanghou (Zhang Qian) in those years, this should be an oasis. Are we lost?"

Fu Jiezi suddenly shouted, "Nonsense! This place is often full of sand and vicissitudes of life. Don't talk nonsense anymore. After saying that, I looked at the Han army and saw that many people still showed panic. Huo Yi was scolded by Fu Jiezi and immediately realized the terrible things.

If the Han army thinks that they have lost their way, it will definitely cause boundless panic. At that time, they will not be determined, and they may not be able to get out of this big desert.

"Go into the desert!" Fu Jiezi knew that the heavy cavalry of the Xiongnu could arrive in the time of a cup of tea. If he encountered it here, he would not be spared.

After galloping overnight, they fell the Xiongnu soldiers not far away after entering the desert. It was not that they couldn't catch up with the Xiongnu cavalry, but that they went further into the desert, the more they were afraid to walk. After all, the Han army faced life and death, and the Xiongnu army was at most a reward. Those who wore shoes did not follow the fierceness, but the heard army Here, they have no choice but to chase.

The next morning, everyone finally saw the dawn and fled overnight. Everyone's hearts were empty, and they didn't know if they had gone wrong. Huo Yi took out a map to compare it, but there was still yellow sand around. Except for heaven and earth, nothing was inseparable, and this map also became a waste.

Fu Jiezi can still distinguish the direction, but looking at the map, if there is no mistake in where he is now, it should be near an oasis, but where is there any sign of an oasis?

The Xiongnu army was also left behind by the Han army. This is a place of death. Fu Jiezi knew that the Xiongnu was not thrown away, but death was in front of him.

"General, there is no water."

Lu Ming checked the situation in the army and said, "And Brother Zhao is dying." Speaking of this, Lu Ming suddenly beat the yellow sand fiercely, with three tears in his voice. He and Zhao Xiong are brothers of life and death. Now Zhao Xiong is half dead, and his heart is as uncomfortable as a knife. The brothers who have fought together are the most affectionate.

"Nearly half of the horses in the army have lost their strength, and I'm afraid they can't walk."

Fu Jiezi felt helpless and made the army rest temporarily. When he came to the army to check the wounded, he found that Su Qiaoer had fainted. Huo Yi's lips were also very dry and weak, looking weak, more like the wounded than the wounded.
