Start: Datang Wanli a lonely city

Chapter 699 Eating Hot Pot and Singing

Looking at the howling cold wind and the heavy snowflakes flying all over the sky, a war horse kicked up the snowflakes and galloped all the way back.

The knight above, wearing a fur coat with a cloak, was already covered with a thick layer of snowflakes. From a distance, it looked like a snowman, and he looked a little embarrassed.

At that time, Hu Biao, who was sitting on a snow sledge and whipped his whip as the driver, seemed to be in a good mood.

After a long distance, he just shouted at the top of his mouth: "Mr. Gechang, how is the situation ahead, and how far is it from that Yanqi city?"

Under such a problem, when the snow sled convoy was advancing all the way.

In order to cover up the whereabouts of the convoy, all of them were released to the Ye Bu Shou team. After hearing the words, the singer of one of them immediately answered from a distance.

Although the tone is not very good, the content contained in it is quite good:
"In this kind of hellish weather, who would go out with a normal head?
Anyway, we didn’t pick up our group at night, and put them at the furthest place five miles away. After watching for a long time with DIY binoculars, we couldn’t see a single ghost, so the whereabouts of the convoy were kept quite secret.

As for the distance from Nayanqi City, it should be only fifty or sixty miles away. "

After hearing such an answer, not to mention Hu Biao, the commander, the corners of the mouths of all the netizens in the convoy raised their lips under the thick masks.

Everything represents their current mood, and they all look pretty good.

The reason for this is that Yang Dongli and AT planned the route back to Chang'an after they almost bald themselves.

Departing from Qiuci City, passing through Yanqi, Gaochang, Huoyanshan, Yiwu, Moheyan and other places, and arriving at Yumenguan, it can be regarded as officially entering the land of the former Tang Dynasty, but now it is occupied by the Tubo people.

Then continue to set off from Yumen Pass, continue to pass through Shazhou, Suzhou, Ganzhou, Liangzhou, Qinzhou and other places, and finally arrive at the destination of this time: Chang'an City.

If you are a historical figure who has been involved in "Da Tang Western Regions", you should be a little familiar with such a line.

In fact, if you are familiar with it, then you are right.

Because this is the same route that Master Xuanzang took when he set off from Chang'an to Sange's home to learn Buddhist scriptures, and arrived in Kucha.

It is almost the same, it is compared with Xuanzang's hair.

On this road, the team needs to avoid those large and small cities and markets, so as not to let the convoy holding the battle flag of the "Da Tang Anxi Army" reveal the reason for their whereabouts.

The whole journey was quite winding, even if it didn't have the originally estimated ten thousand miles, there was still a journey of eight or nine thousand miles.

But even so, all the netizens are still in a pretty good mood.

That's because the speed of the convoy using the sledge even exceeded the normal situation of the carriage, so the efficiency of this journey was better than they expected.

You must know that Yanqi City, the capital of this small country in the Western Regions, is also the only city.

The straight-line distance from Zheqiuci City is about 350 kilometers between the two.

In terms of actual distance, it was almost [-] to [-] miles.

But today's time is Datang Yuanhe (it was previously written as Xuanhe, and it will be corrected here), on December [-]th of the third year, at around two o'clock in the afternoon.

That is to say, they set off from Qiuci City at noon on the fourth day; as a result, they traveled seven hundred and seventy-eight miles in three and a half days.

Even in every day, they leave before dawn.

After dark at night, you have to go on the road for a while, and the time you spend on the road every day is definitely not less than ten hours.

But on average, it can reach an astonishing speed of two hundred and thirty-four miles in one day, which is still at least 50% faster than the original estimated speed.

In this way, they will naturally have more time to deal with unexpected events.

Hu Biao and the others were delighted to think about such an efficient rushing speed; after all, it was in the middle of the cold winter, so what kind of bicycle did they need...

After digesting the good news brought back by not accepting singers at night and working for a while, Hu Biao issued a series of orders:

"Attention everyone, stop advancing immediately; change the horses, feed them some fodder, and then everyone will take the opportunity to eat and drink, and we will continue to set off in half an hour.

After bypassing Yanqi City, at least another fifty miles ahead, after we are completely safe, we will find a place to rest. "

Hearing this order, everyone applauded with their mouths, and at the same time, their subordinates also took action.

After the convoy just stopped, the first priority of everyone was to replace the horses that were riding or pulling the sledge with some spare horses.

And these replaced war horses were immediately covered with thick horse clothes to prevent them from sweating a lot and being damaged by the cold weather.

The next thing is to feed the horses some water,

Regarding this point, the space rings in the hands of Hu Biao and Xu Feng, and even the space burdens on ten other people played a considerable role.

Don't look at the cloth-shaped burden, the level of rusticity immediately skyrocketed.

But I can't stand this thing. After storing the item in it, it freezes all the time; that is, what temperature is put in and what temperature is taken out.

In the current environment, it can be said to be the best insulated kettle.

Otherwise, it would be quite troublesome to feed the war horse with some water.

After some water feeding, everyone put a small bag on the horse's mouth, which contained some high-quality black beans with salt and milk powder.

In short, these war horses are delicate and look like they are being watched carefully by everyone, but animals care more than people.

no way!The team's current ability to maintain such an unexpected high speed is entirely due to the fact that they have enough horses to replace without saving horsepower.

If there is only one horse in hand, one-third of the speed is not bad.

In the end, after taking care of the animals, everyone asked Hu Biao to take out some boiling water from the space ring.

With these precious hot water, everyone brewed a bowl of oily milk tea; then with the milk tea, they ate a stomach full of beef and mutton jerky.

While eating, he also cursed at Fenghuahui and Barong; the main thing was beef and mutton jerky smoked from cow dung, the taste of which was hard to describe.

But if he doesn't eat, that guy will be very hungry.

******
After another six hours or so, with the help of the faint light emitted by the dead wind lamp in front of the sledge, I faintly saw behind a large rock in the leeward direction.

From Hu Biao's mouth, something yelled: "Okay, we will camp here today."

At such a time, the people who were already cold, hungry, and exhausted cheered immediately; there was no need for Hu Biao to talk too much, but the active division of labor and cooperation began.

Some people are busy taking care of the horses and feeding them.

Some people connected several sledges together as a solid base; and then built boards like building blocks.

But in a very short time.Wooden houses appeared one by one.

In the current bad weather, this kind of wooden house is of course extremely poor in thermal insulation; but if it is outside, it will be different if it is added with a thick tent.

There are as many as four of these log cabin tents in the team.

The area of ​​each yurt is about the same as that of a normal yurt. If seven or eight people are crowded in it to rest, of course it is a bit crowded, but it has an excellent windproof ability.

The most critical point is that in each tent, there is a portable stove that can be assembled similar to the modern plane.

Pieces of iron pieces that looked ordinary at first, but in a few clicks, they can be put together into a square stove.

In the purpose of the stove, there is also a smoke outlet, which can be connected with a section of iron pipes to discharge the smoke out of the tent, without affecting the personnel in it at all.

By the way, after passing through some iron chain links, a fence was immediately formed, and the horses could be surrounded in the tent.

In short, this kind of sledge-style tent carefully designed by Lang Qing and Lao Tie has the advantages of warmth, convenience, and a certain degree of defense for the owner.

And when the people who take care of the horses have finished their work, the good time will come.

For example, after turning around and finding that there are many temporary camps established, Hu Biao, who should have missed nothing, was relieved of his worries and lifted the curtain of the tent where he was resting.

Before he actually walked in, a wave of warm heat rushed to his face, the temperature could be at least ten degrees Celsius.

What's even better is that the girl of the God of Wealth cooked a pot of beef jerky before taking a sip of the marching pot; for the imperial concubine, she was even boiling some high-quality brandy.

While the two were busy, because the temperature in the tent was very high; they both took off their bloated and bulky fur coats, revealing their hot bodies wearing only thermal underwear.

While enjoying the rare warmth, he hummed an unknown song in his mouth.

Zhan Xiang, Huang Fatty, AT and others were closing the curtain and resting their minds while waiting for food and drink.

Among the other tents, Hu Biao, who just took a look at it, knew that it was the same result.

Good guy!This time, this journey, which was originally thought to be extremely hard, was forced by them to create a leisure mode of eating hot pot and singing.

It's just that Hu Biao's heart is still relatively clear. Knowing when the grandson of the system issued the task can make them relax?
It is estimated that such ease will not last for too long.

Therefore, I have already made preparations, and I am prepared for how to deal with some troubles that are brewing once they are really shrouded.

It's a pity that when the troubles really struck, Hu Biao discovered that there were some of them that he didn't expect...
