Chapter 70 Chapter 70 Chapter 70

The army moved quickly, and the further north they went, the colder the weather became.

Yinyu tugged at his heavy cloak, looked at the road ahead, and asked Yinzhi, "Brother, how many days will it take us to arrive?"

This was the most he had ever ridden a horse in his life. The insides of his thighs were rubbed raw, and his face was a little dry and cracked by the wind. It was really uncomfortable.

Xiao Chengzi looked at the redness on Yinyu's face and took out a bottle of oil from her bag. She handed it to Yinyu and said to him, "Master, let me apply some oil on your face. If the wind blows on it again, it might crack and bleed."

"Then it will hurt again."

His master has been spoiled since childhood, and his face is now dry and cracked.

Yinyu listened to Xiaochengzi's words, glanced at Yinzhi, nodded, and said, "Well, apply it later when you're resting. You're running so fast right now, and if you accidentally apply it somewhere else, it'll be bad."

As he said this, he sighed and looked at Yinzhen pitifully.

Yinzhen looked at Yinyu for a long while before saying, "It's almost there, it's almost there. We need to wait for news."

Having said that, he raised his hand and said to the person beside him: "Let's set up camp now."

Yinyu listened to him and jumped off the horse. The pain on her leg made her grimace. She said to Yinzhi, "Brother, I don't care. Get me a carriage. I want to ride in one."

As he walked, he crossed his legs and said, "Look at my legs. Can I still walk? Can I still keep my face?"

"My father is waiting for me to get married after I return. Am I going to get married with such a face?"

Anyway, he didn't want to ride a horse at all. Since he had to stop and wait for news, he might as well sit in the carriage and go ahead.

This way it doesn't waste any time.

If they really wanted to hurry, it would be okay for him to follow on horseback.

Yinyou was thinking in his mind, but his facial expression did not show it at all.

Yinzhen listened to Yinyu's words, frowned and looked at him and said, "Fifteen, what if there is danger ahead? How about we wait a little longer?"

He didn't want Yinyu to take any risks, but Shiwu's leg seemed to be seriously injured!

If I continue riding, my legs might not be able to walk, and even if I do walk, it will be of no use.

But if we take a carriage, drive slowly, and leave early, it is not impossible to arrive with them.

Yin Yu looked at the person in front of him and said anxiously in his heart: "System, my thigh is definitely bleeding. If I rest for a night today, I'm afraid I won't be able to walk tomorrow. I'll rest here for a few days so that the scab can form, and then I can continue to rub it."

He shuddered all over when he said this, and then continued in his mind: "No, I must take a carriage and absolutely cannot ride a horse again."

System 679 listened to this and said in its distinctive young mechanical voice, "Host, if you ride in a carriage, you'll probably have to lie down, and the skin on your inner thighs will be rubbed raw. It's not just a little bit."

At this point, he turned to Yinyu and said, "However, your fifth brother and his men are making quite good progress. If possible, the two sides should soon meet. If they do, the Russians will definitely be wiped out, after all, they have fewer people."

He paused slightly, then continued, "If you leave first, you shouldn't encounter any danger."

Yinzhen's heart instantly relaxed when he heard System 679's words. He said to Yinyu, "Okay, since you want to take a carriage, then let's go first. But you must follow the route I told you before."

"If you go astray or get lost, find a local herder and ask them to lead the way. Don't get lost on the grassland alone."

Yinyou had never been out of the house alone, and now he had to take a carriage to leave the team. He was really worried.

I couldn't help but want to give a few words of advice.

Yinyu nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

After saying that, he sat on the ground, waiting for the person Yinzhen sent to buy a carriage to come back.

After about half an hour, the carriage slowly returned. Sun Qi got out of the carriage and bowed slightly to Yinyu, saying, "Master, the carriage is ready. Shall we set off now?"

Yinyu glanced at Yinzhi, nodded at him and said, "Well, let's go now. Our carriage is slow, so we should set off early."

As he spoke, he supported Xiao Chengzi's arm and boarded the carriage. After sitting in the carriage, he raised his hand to lift the curtain and said to Yinzhen: "Brother, I'll wait for you in the front. If there is anything, I will let Xiao Chengzi deliver the message to you."

Upon hearing this, Yinzhen nodded slightly and warned with some concern: "Fifteen must be careful."

Yinyou nodded, lowered the curtain of the carriage, and half-lay on the wall. His legs moved slightly, which affected the wound on his thigh. He couldn't help but take a breath.

Sun Qi was driving a carriage outside, and there were four guards following him. These four people were given to him by Kangxi, and he was asked to keep them with him.

The other one is Little Orange sitting in the carriage.

Xiao Chengzi said to Sun Qi outside, "Sun Qi, please drive slowly. I will apply medicine to the master first."

Sun Qi said to Xiao Chengzi: "Okay."

The carriage was moving more and more steadily. Xiao Chengzi took off Yin Yu's pants and saw the bloody mess on the inside of his thigh. He couldn't help but redden his eyes. He said to Yin Yu with a choked look, "Master, your leg is in such a state, why didn't you say anything? If I had told you in advance and given you some medicine, you wouldn't have ended up like this."

The flesh stuck to his pants made Yinyu gasp. He took a few deep breaths to suppress the pain, then said to him, "Isn't this the way my elder brother hurried before? I was afraid that he would delay things, so I didn't tell him."

"Who knew he would stop here and wait for Brother Wu? If I had known there was so much time, I would have stopped and rested for a few days."

If he hadn't been unable to bear it this time and knew that Yinzhen was waiting for someone, he would have continued to persevere until Jungar was dealt with once and for all.

Xiao Chengzi wiped the blood off and said to Yinyu, "Master, I will apply medicine to you. Please bear with me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he sprinkled the medicine in his hand onto his thigh.

Suddenly, he felt a piercing pain, and he couldn't help but let out a scream.

Sun Qi was outside listening to Yinyou's cries and couldn't help swallowing. He glanced at the people around him and said nothing. The carriage just slowed down.

After two days of recovery in the carriage, Yinyu felt that his leg injury had healed a lot. He finally had time to ask the 679 system: "System, have my eldest brother and the others set off?"

System 679 said to Yin Yu: "Not yet. There is no news from Yin Qi yet, so your eldest brother naturally cannot move."

He then turned to Yinyu, "But you're not fast enough. You're almost at where your fifth brother is. We don't know what they're waiting for, and they haven't made a move yet."

Yinyu nodded, looked down at the scab on his thigh, and couldn't help laughing: "It's okay, we'll know when we get there."

"It's just my legs that hurt so much."

The medicine Xiao Chengzi applied to his wound was really effective. In just two days, he could clearly feel the wound starting to itch. At this rate, the scab would start to fall off in a week at most.

But now he couldn't help but want to scratch it with his hand.

Xiao Chengzi raised his hand and handed him a box of snacks and dried meat, saying to him, "Master, please bear with it for two more days. Wait a few more days, and the scabs will fall off and you won't feel uncomfortable anymore. If you touch it now, it will bleed."

Yinyu picked up a piece of dried meat and chewed it slowly. He glanced at Xiao Chengzi and nodded, saying, "I understand."

Two days later, the carriage had completely entered the territory of Junggar. The surrounding sandstorms began to increase. Yinyu lifted the curtain to look at the scene outside and couldn't help but say, "After I take over Junggar, I must plant trees and forests. I absolutely cannot go out with a mouth full of sand. It's really uncomfortable."

Little Chengzi looked at the wind and sand outside and asked Yinyu, "Master, are we going to plant trees here?"

"The climate here is a bit dry, so it's not easy to grow trees."

System 679 also said to Yinyu in his mind: "Yes, planting trees in a place like this is not easy, but it is much easier than in modern times."

At that time, although it was dry here, there were still trees, and it had not become a complete desert like it is today.

Yinyu looked outside in silence for a long while before he said, "We have to plant crops. If we don't plant crops now, it might be as difficult as it is today."

"For my future in the territory, I must plant trees no matter what. Later, you can investigate on the main brain to find out which trees are suitable for survival here. Fruit trees are best. Then I won't have to worry about them after I plant them."

“We can still eat the fruit every year.”

When the 679 system heard what Yinyou said, it immediately felt that what he said made sense. If fruit trees were really planted, it could prevent soil erosion and people could also eat the fruits.

Isn’t it great that the leftover fruit can be sold for money?

As soon as he had this idea, he nodded to Yinyu and said, "That's fine, absolutely fine. I'll go check with the main brain and see what kind of fruit trees would be suitable to plant."

Yinyu nodded and said to Xiaochengzi, "We have to plant it even if you don't agree. If we don't plant it now, when we settle in Junggar in the future, won't we have a mouthful of sand every day?"

He paused slightly, patted Xiao Chengzi's shoulder, and smiled at him, "Once we're settled in Junggar, you can take your people to start planting. When you grow a tree, I'll give you one or two taels of silver. How about that?"

Fruit trees have a very long growing period. Once the fruit-setting period arrives, you can eat fresh fruits every year and earn a lot of money from them.

When Xiao Chengzi heard what Yin Yu said, he immediately laughed happily. He nodded to Yin Yu and said, "Okay, then I will be responsible for planting fruit trees for you."

As they spoke, System 679 suddenly spoke up, urging, "Host, quickly have Sun Qi turn his horse around and head back. We're talking about a group of cavalry ahead. If we're late, we might not be able to escape."
