Chapter 145 Grassland Blizzard

The real prince of the Ming Dynasty, who single-handedly reversed the fate of the Ming Dynasty that was about to be destroyed, actually fell into our hands. Which is more important to him or to recovering his father's treasure?

No need to hesitate, this is a fat fish.

If the treasure is lost, it can be snatched back, but if you seize this little prince who is of great importance to the Ming Dynasty and offer it to the Qing Dynasty, you don't need to think about it, and the hat of a prince is put on your head.

"Third brother, you go back immediately. We will lead all the troops and double-team him on both sides to kill him and avenge my father."

Zuoqi Qushuai agreed and immediately ran back to his camp. Following his eldest brother, he turned north and began to double-team Lu Mou.

We must capture this little guy. The successor Taiji and the future throne will belong to our brothers.

All the two flags on the left and right, as well as the remnants of the central flag, like a pack of wolves, gave up the pursuit south and turned north, overwhelmingly overwhelming Lu Mou's troops. Bloody battles and breakout battles began to spread to the north.

Lu Mou's team continued to reduce in number, but more enemies died due to their sophisticated and advanced weapons. On the way north, the pastures were covered with corpses and the ground was clotted with blood.

Unknowingly, the two sides had fought with each other and had a deadly feud.

We encountered another interception from a small tribe. The herdsmen blocked the way with pitchforks and stone pouches on their horse poles and few weapons.

These five or six thousand real herdsmen shouted fearlessly and launched a desperate charge against Lu Mou's army of less than four thousand.

Although Lu Mou wears the strongest armor in the world, although he has the most handsome war horse in the Ming Dynasty, and although his little sword is named Yuguang, he is the most protected waste on this battlefield.

A child is holding a child in his arms and is wrapped in the core of four thousand soldiers. Even cold arrows cannot reach him. He has become the safest person in the world.

The shouts of killing were deafening, the screams were earth-shattering, and Lu Mou, who was wrapped in the core, was a little bored. He does not need to command this battlefield. All the horse thieves know what they should do and what they should do. They do not need to command.

Of course, even if you want to take command, no one can hear your orders amidst the neighing sounds of thousands of troops and horses. The war drums are covered up by the shouts of huge horse hooves, so they have no effect at all. Wave the flag? When life and death are at stake, don't look at the enemy, but look back at your flag. In the blink of an eye, his head will be gone.

This kind of cavalry battle most tests the quality and experience of each individual soldier. They only need to pay attention to the brothers around them and cooperate with their movements. Otherwise, there are no unnecessary distractions.

The victory of the four thousand most elite horse thieves against the five thousand herdsmen, men, women, old and young, was not in suspense. However, despite the herdsmen's fearlessness and fear of death, after losing 300 brothers, more than 5,000 herdsmen were all killed in the battle, and the battle was over.

But the mission of the herdsmen was also achieved. They once again delayed Lu Mou's advance and pointed out the enemy's position to their compatriots.

There were constant reports from the surrounding Jinyi guards that the enemy was getting closer to him.

Look at Xiaoya nestling in his arms in such a melee. Yes, Lu Mou, who is not good at naming, named this babbling girl Xiaoya. In fact, Xiaoya would be considered lucky if she didn't get a single egg.

"Today is already the tenth day. We have attracted the enemy's entire army and marched north for nearly a thousand miles. At this time, even if the enemy wants to turn back and pursue us, our own brigade should have crossed over at the speed of going south. The Great Wall has merged with the Third Division of the Fourth Army. However, all the left and right banners are already around, and the remnants of the central banner have surrounded us, completely cutting off our retreat. Now we are in compliance with the truth, be good when you come, and return not going."

Zhang Congyi said calmly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, we would rather fight the last remaining person than protect Your Majesty from returning to the Ming Dynasty."

All the soldiers nodded together, looking resolute.

Zhang Congyi made his only request: "But we need to take a break, eat something hot, and restore our physical strength."

After ten days of running and fighting day and night, the soldiers could only eat mutton that was frozen as hard as iron on horseback between battles. Their physical strength was almost exhausted.

Even if he returns south now, it is unrealistic to break through the enemy's blockade.

What is urgently needed now is to find a place to hide, eat hot food, sleep and regain strength. Otherwise it's all in vain.

At this time, a biting wind blew, causing the sleeping Xiaoya to arch her body into Lu Mou's arms.

Lu Mou wrapped his cloak tighter.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger. When I looked up, I saw dark clouds approaching in the sky to the north. The stronger north wind roared in from the depths of the grassland, carrying withered grass. I saw that a heavy snowfall was about to fall on the grassland.

"Your Majesty, based on my many years of experience walking on the grassland, a terrifying grassland white-haired wind is coming. We must find a place to hide, otherwise, we will be lost in the grassland and the whole army will be annihilated." What the grassland people are most afraid of It's two yellow and one white. The two yellows represent sandstorms and locusts; the white represents the snowstorm and the white wind after the snow.

Two yellows can cause a large number of cattle and sheep to collapse (die in batches)

But Baimaofeng is even more terrifying. They can kill people and animals.

Time is urgent, where can I find a safe haven?

Once the snow falls, you can only squat where you are, otherwise you will be ruined by getting lost in the vast snow.

And you haven’t brought a tent yet, and the intense cold after the snow will turn you into an ice sculpture in the blink of an eye.

Come up with ideas quickly, this is a top priority.

Lu Mou asked: "How far is the Karaqin Right Banner from this?"

A guard in uniform calculated silently: "We come out from the middle flag and head north. It forms a triangle with the right flag. The straight-line distance will not exceed five hundred miles."

"You are investigating, all the troops from the Right Banner will come to hunt us down, right?"

"Yes. Now in Right Banner, only the old and the weak look after the house and herd the animals."

"Okay, let's take advantage of the wind and snow to go to his right flag. We occupy the right flag, where we can comfortably escape the snowstorm and the white-haired wind."

At this time, large flakes of snowflakes like cotton wadding had already drifted down with the howling cold wind. The surrounding area was already dark and the heavy snow was coming. In the blink of an eye, it was difficult to distinguish things twenty steps away. It was no longer possible to distinguish things. Beidu can't be found.

Of course, once you can find North, you won't be able to find North.

Now we can only wait on the spot, waiting for the snow to stop, and if we are lucky, we can think of a solution.

But when they heard that the prince was going to march in the snow, everyone was shocked: "You can't do that, prince. When the heavy snow comes, we will get lost and our entire army will be annihilated."

"Get lost? That's them. We won't get lost. Then he called to everyone: "Come on, come on, protect me from the strong wind." "

The soldiers quickly gathered around Lu Mou, shielding him from the wind and snow.

Lu Mou broke off a thin thread of armor leaves on his armor, tied it in the middle with a thin thread, and then rubbed it against Dabai's body.

It felt a little hot to the touch. When I lifted up the thin thread, the small piece of filament started to spin and then stopped. Lu Mou smiled easily: "We have found the north, so that direction is the west. Let's go to the right flag's nest."

Faced with the artifact that could produce a compass so easily, everyone rejoiced and marched immediately.

In the heavy snow, the enemy did not dare to move, so they could only camp on the spot. However, a team, with their horses connected head to tail, was struggling to move forward in the vast snow where things could not be distinguished.

After walking a short distance, the team would stop, correct its direction, and then move on.

The world was in chaos, and it was unclear whether it would be dark or dawn. The team only dared to stop and continue moving forward when they corrected their direction.

You must not stop. Although there is a saying that the snow does not cool down and the snow becomes cold, but if you stop at this time, you will be buried in heavy snow in the blink of an eye.

I don’t know how long or how many miles I walked, but there were soldiers who could no longer bear the fatigue, fell off their horses, and were silently covered by the heavy snow.

If this continues and no place to rest can be found, this team will disappear silently into the vast snowy grassland.

Just when the big white horse was staggering, its head hit something with a thud and stopped.
