Chapter 17 , Loulan Fengyun

In the afternoon, Fu Jiezi did not ask Yin Yin again and asked her to stay with Feng Yu and others in Quli City. Lu Ming had gathered the team. Fu Jiezi also seemed absent-minded when checking the horses and was checking. Suddenly, someone behind him patted himself.

"Hey, Fu, General Fu."

Fu Jiezi was overjoyed. Looking back, it was Yin Yin who said unexpectedly, "Why are you here? We are ready to go now."

"Take me with you." Yin Yin's eyes were very big, and at this time, she turned around and looked particularly naughty. Fu Jiezi couldn't help saying, "Didn't you refuse to go just now?" Yin Yin said without saying, "I'm not as messy as the little princess. Take me with you."

Fu Jiezi can't ask for this matter. Although in Fu Jiezi's impression, Yin Yin's mischievousness is better than his brother Shi, these are not important.

"Okay, okay." Fu Jiezi smiled and said, "However, it's dangerous to go here. You can't go to the front. Hey, Yin Yin, you'd better stay in Quli and come back to you when I come back. Fu Jiezi seemed to have no idea at this time and hesitated to do things.

"Why don't you have your own opinion?" Yin Yin pouted, glanced at him and said, "How can you lead the army like this? Just one sentence, do you want to take it or not?"

Fu Jiezi also found that he did not have his own opinions. Because of Yin Yin's appearance, on the one hand, he became impulsive and reckless, and on the other hand, he seemed to be worried about gains and losses.

"Of course I want it." Fu Jiezi laughed, but still calmed down and said, "Yinyin, it was because I let you go to the battlefield six years ago that you left me. From now on, I won't let you take any risks. The war is our man's business. You are still waiting for me in Quli. When I come back, I will carry the sedan chair and marry you into the door.

This was eager and straightforward. Yin Yin frowned slightly and looked around nervously. She saw that Han Jun's expression was strange and her face turned even more red.

After a while, Feng Yu came out to see them off. Fu Jiezi went to discuss for a while. Feng Yu stayed here and continued to ask for troops from King Guizi. Seeing Fu Jiezi and Yin Yin Yin together, he only said that Fu Jiezi wanted to take Yin Yin to the battlefield. He couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied and said, "General Fu, Miss Yin Yin Yin is a girl's house. I'm afraid to follow her. It's not convenient. It's safer for her to stay with us.

Fu Jiezi said, "In this way, Mrs. Lao Feng will take care of it. She, she is very naughty..."

Yin Yin couldn't help staring at Fu Jiezi fiercely, but it was not easy to attack.

Feng Yu smiled and said, "It's okay. My brother Shi is also naughty. The two happen to be a companion." Yin Yin was a little reluctant. Fu Jiezi persuaded her again and again before she agreed.

After saying goodbye to Feng, Fu Jiezi and his party turned eastward. From here to the southeast, it was Shanshan, and directly to the east was Loulan. Zheng Ji's troops were in Qiang Ruo at this time. The Han army found Zheng Ji's troops in just one day. At noon the next day, they were about to catch up with the footprints.

Lu Ming opened the map and looked at it and said, "You see, there are mountains on both sides, and there are strong wind irrigation mouths, so it is called 'Guankou'. It is drawn on the map. After passing the irrigation gate, it is Qimo and Loulan, and going south is Shanshan. According to this footprint, Zheng Ji and his party should not be in Qiangruo, but in the end area. "

Fu Jiezi took a closer look at the map, and then looked at the surrounding mountains, the desert wind and sand. There was no end at a glance, and there was no special mark. He thought for a moment and said, "The Xiongnu's mission came from Loulan Puchanghai. There are three roads, one of which is Shanshan in the south. One is Lou Lan, and the other is a driver. But for the driver, the road is far away, most likely to be Loulan Road, and we will go north. Looking at this road, Dazhi is also in Loulan. Presumably Zheng Ji thinks so too.

Lu Ming said, " boss, if you guess wrong, we will let the Xiongnu envoy pass."

Fu Jiezi paused and said, "There is no other way here. We can only take one step. I think Zheng Ji and the others must have inquired about the news. It's better to believe his ability than to bump into each other here."

Lu Ming is also a cheerful person. After fighting for so many years, he has not been afraid of anything for a long time and said, "Okay." With that, he shouted loudly that the team would turn around and head north.

In the desert, the traces of a large army drove curvedly to the distance. At this time, the sun was poisonous, and the horses and camels lost their temper. The sound of bumps and cages on the horses from time to time stimulated these people who had been a little numb.

The footprints have been almost covered by the wind and sand. At this time, the traces can't tell how many people there are in this team, and it doesn't seem to be too many.

"Big boss, why do I think there is something wrong with this road? He said that it's time to catch up now.

Lu Ming rushed for a while and couldn't help asking. Fu Jiezi also frowned and said, "I also feel it. It seems that Zheng Ji's team has accelerated."

Lu Ming said, "Then shall we be faster? "H..." Lu Ming seemed to see something. He rushed forward for a while and jumped off the horse to pick up something from the ground.

Fu Jiezi caught up with it.

is a white porcelain produced by "Jiyongfang" in Chang'an in the Han Dynasty.

Fu Jiezi couldn't help but feel shocked. Although this kind of thing is also in the army, he is more aware of it in the caravan.

Lu Ming was stunned and said, " boss, do you think it will be a caravan?"

At this time, the Han army also gathered around, and Wuhou picked up a large roll of silk cloth not far ahead. This time, Fu Jiezi was sure that this was indeed a caravan, not Zheng Ji's caravan.

Lu Ming said, " boss, it seems that it's really a caravan. We are with the wrong person!"

Fu Jiezi shouted, "Bell me the map."

Lu Ming and two other soldiers quickly sent the map over. Fu Jiezi spread the map on the sand, looked carefully for a while, and said, "There is absolutely nothing wrong. It is a little far from the North and South Road. It should not be the place where the Silk Road passes by. Such a large team is most likely to be Zheng Ji's army. Let's continue on our way."

Lu Ming was a little scared and said, " boss, how can there be silk cloth in the army? This is the fall of the caravan. I think we are chasing the wrong one. Why don't we go back to the irrigation gate and go south?"

Fu Jiezi also had some suspense in his heart, but after thinking about it over and over again, he still ordered the team to head north.

drove out of another hundred miles. The footprints in front of him suddenly changed direction and went west, while in the north, there was a large team of footprints coming south, converging with the bellyprints in the north, and then the folded road to the west, showing the word "human" inverted.

When the Han army saw it, they quarreled immediately. Fu Jiezi hit the horse and counted the number of people. The number of people could not be counted. A large footprints came from the north, and the footprints on the south road disappeared in this piece of footprint.

Fu Jiezi got off the horse and drew a hoof mark and said, "The hoof is wide and shallow, and the distance is larger than that of an ordinary horse. It seems to be the cavalry of the Xiongnu."

Lu Ming also saw it and lost his voice, " boss, it seems that he really met!"

Fu Jiezi just nodded and continued, "Look at the wind direction and hoof marks, this should have been left in the first half of last night."

Wuhou said urgently, "General, do you want to chase it?"

Lu Ming said angrily, "How can we chase such a small group of people!"

Fu Jiezi turned over and shouted, "Cheer up, let's catch up!"

"What a chase!" Lu Ming was a little panicked and said, " boss, there seem to be at least a thousand people here. Isn't it dangerous for us to chase them so boldly?"

Fu Jiezi said, "Whether it is Zheng Ji's army or the caravan here, we are all Han people. From the perspective of the Han people, we have to chase them. On the other hand, what we are looking for is the Xiongnu envoy. Now we have found it. If we don't catch up with us, gather the team, we will catch up and see a clear one."

"Oh," Lu Ming gritted his teeth and got on the horse and said fiercely, "If you die, you will die. Just chase it."

Fu Jiezi hit his horse and accelerated all the way. After walking for a while, he saw a lot of things lost on the road, including cloth, silk, porcelain, and some dead horses and camels.

It seems that there was a war, and Fu Jiezi's heart tightened. Looking at the appearance of these camels, they have been dead for most of the day, and the blood has dried up and turned into a pool of bloody mud on the ground.

Lu Ming suddenly pointed to the front and said, " boss, look, there are still dead people."

The Han people rushed over. Fu Jiezi got off his horse and looked at the corpse. He was a Han man who didn't seem to know him. He was cut on his back, and there was a two-foot-long mouth, and the blood had dried up. Looking at the skin and bones, he looked very embarrassed.

Fu Jiezi sighed and ordered the team to drive forward. It was not far away. He saw several dead people, but there were no fallen goods. These people died unbearably. Fu Jiezi glanced for a moment and stopped looking. He asked the team to follow up with an iron face and only took a few steps. Suddenly, a Han army said, "General, general! This is Miss Su's father's camel team! I know this man!"

Fu Jiezi's heart suddenly sank when he heard this and shouted, "What are you talking about!"

At this time, he ran to a soldier in front of him and said, "General, we met this man when we were in the Eishi City. He is a martial artist in Ludaping Mansion. We drank together." As soon as the soldier said, several soldiers immediately followed suit.

Lu Ming lost his voice and said, " boss, will Qiao'er girl... let's chase it!"

"Straight Thief!" Fu Jiezi clenched his fist tightly, took off the long gun from the camel behind him, and shouted, "Chake me hard!"

Lu Ming greeted, and all the Han army were excited. They were quite familiar with Father Su and Su Qiaoer. In Chang'an, they could only be said to be general acquaintances, but in the Western Regions, where Han people are extremely rare, they are relatives, not to mention the boss's in-laws.

"Qiao'er!" Fu Jiezi meditated in his heart, and the whip raised twice. He stepped on the deep and shallow yellow sand all the way. Along the way, he suspected that it might be Su's father's caravan, but this possibility was too small, and he would be a little unlucky to think so, so he has been secretly telling himself that it's not, but now it seems that What are you really afraid of? Zheng Ji's troops didn't meet, but met Father Su's caravan, but caught up with the Huns.

After a while, more people died. Fu Jiezi took a look. Although there were many people in it who could not be named, they were indeed people in Su's father's caravan, and several of them were martial artists in Lu Datou's mansion.

Now it has been confirmed that this team is indeed Father Su's caravan.

After chasing forward, the footprints on the ground suddenly disappeared, as if they had been erased by Pingping, which made the Han army confused!

Lu Ming shouted, " boss, what's going on? Why are the footprints gone?"

Fu Jiezi was also confused and couldn't answer the reason. He said, "Your Excellency look around, be sure to find it for me!"

The Han army scattered around, and Fu Jiezi also walked around and returned disappointed.

"Have you found it?" Fu Jiezi asked when he saw a soldier coming back, but one hundred and ten people got nothing.

" boss, do you think we have entered the ecstasy beach?" Lu Ming really couldn't figure out what was going on, and couldn't help thinking of the legendary place where he couldn't get in and out. Fu Jiezi shouted, "Don't talk nonsense. Looking around again, I think there must be nothing wrong with the general direction. Let's continue to move forward.

The Han army obeyed the order and continued to move forward. Seeing the sunset in the west mountains, the Han army still did not see anything.

Fu Jiezi had no choice but to order the team to camp.

One night, Fu Jiezi didn't sleep for a long time. The next morning, the Han army gathered a whole team and had to eat some dry food and ordered to go. He circled around for half a day and couldn't find anything. Fu Jiezi's heart was gloomy. He didn't know whether Su's caravan was good or bad.

Lu Ming said, " boss, we haven't seen Father Su on the way, at least it means that they are still alive. You don't have to worry too much. What I'm worried about now is that the Xiongnu soldiers didn't see it. Could it have passed?

Fu Jiezi said, "If this is the case, won't Zheng Ji and Zheng Ji all be out?"

Lu Ming said, "This is possible. Boss, what do you think we should do?

Lu Ming is also clever. At this time, most of his uncertain ideas are difficult problems. Fu Jiezi also can't make up his mind. From a selfish point of view, he really wants to look around here, but after looking for more than a day, he has not found anything. If the Huns are allowed to reach Wusun, he will not be there. Feng Yu also went out. Princess Xieyou was afraid that she would be alone. Thinking of this, Fu Jiezi said, "If the Huns cross the desert and walk through the Puchang Sea, the most likely place to go is Loulan. We will rush directly to Loulan. Loulan belongs to our Han Dynasty and should be helpful."

The Han army had no intention. Lu Ming also said, "It's not far from Loulan. We can't find Father Su here, and they are likely to go to Loulan."

Fu Jiezi paused. What Lu Ming said may be really great. Now he said, "Okay, let's go to Loulan."

After two days and one night, the Han army appeared outside Loulan City with fatigue.

Loulan City is so prosperous, and there is an endless stream of caravans in the past. Fu Jiezi found that there are obviously many caravans from surrounding countries in Loulan City, with a large team of 500 people and small teams of two or three camels.

After all, it was the richest country in the Western Regions. When Fu Jiezi entered Loulan City, he immediately felt a burst of magnificentness. Although Loulan City is still incomparable to Chang'an, it is obviously much richer than other countries in the Western Regions.

The team still stayed in the post house, and Fu Jiezi, the head of the post, still recognized it, but the post manager didn't seem to know much about Fu Jiezi, which seemed extremely cold.

The Han army temporarily stopped in the post warehouse. Fu Jiezi inquired about Zheng Ji and the Han caravan. The post leader didn't know anything and didn't know anything about the arrival of the Xiongnu soldiers. Fu Jiezi couldn't help falling into deep doubts.

It was night and was treated by the post leader for a while. Fu Jiezi felt that something had changed unconsciously in Loulan City.

When you arrive at Loulan, you can't go to worship the queen.

The God King's Mansion has been sealed, and there is no reply after the ancient god king went to Jingjue.

The queen was buried in the royal palace, and there was no way to enter the city today.

Just as Fu Jiezi was going to rest, a bartender suddenly came in and said to Fu Jiezi, "Lord, there is someone outside who wants to see you." Fu Jiezi was busy getting dressed and said, "Who is it?"

The bartender said, "I don't know either."

Fu Jiezi went out doubtfully. Fu Jiezi didn't know the person who came. The man wore a heavy hat on his head and his face could not be seen clearly, but Fu Jiezi knew that he did not know this person himself.

The man looked very nervous and looked around for a while. Seeing that no one followed him, he took out something from his arms and said, "Fu messenger, please follow me."

Fu Jiezi also looked around, turned around and said a few words to Lu Ming, followed this person out. The man took Fu Jiezi to turn left and right and came to a flower viewing pavilion. The man arched his hand slightly to Fu Jiezi and automatically retreated.

At this time, when the people at the flower viewing pavilion saw Fu Jiezi, they hurried over and saluted Fu Jiezi and said, "Fu messenger."

Fu Jiezi sighed in his heart and arched his hand and said, "General Che Hu."

It was General Chehu who asked Fu Jiezi to come, and now he has been promoted to the auxiliary state of Loulan.

The car guard looked much thinner, which made Fu Jiezi sit aside. The atmosphere seemed very dull, and the car guard seemed to have a bad time.

Fu Jiezi knew that the matter was urgent and said, "General Che Hu, Fu arrived today and felt that there was a change in Loulan City. I don't know what happened?"

General Car Protector gave Fu Jiezi a bowl of wine, took a sip of it, and said, "Fu messenger, you'd better go out of the city quickly."

Fu Jiezi was stunned and said, "Why?"

General Che Hu said, "General Fu doesn't know that the Xiongnu's envoy has arrived in Loulan. Moreover, well, the king's body is not very good. Maybe his fate is not long, and the Xiongnu have sent Prince Angui back to Loulan. If nothing happens, the prince will succeed to the throne within the month.
