For those who have just arrived here, the best scenery outside the Great Wall is the vast land connecting with the sky, and they can feel the grandeur and magnificence of nature.

In the night sky of the border, the stars are like silver sand scattered on the black screen, flashing with cold light.

Endless wind swept across the Gobi Desert, and if you were not careful, you would be swallowed up by a pile of sand.

The battle on the front line had just started, and the first wave of fighting ended in a draw, with both sides suffering heavy losses.

At this time, both parties were plotting the next move.

Meanwhile, at Zhuang Yiguo's military camp, the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.

Wei Yuwen, as a major general, was originally on the rear line, but somehow he vomited blood and fell into a coma.

General Wei Yuan, who had just returned from the battlefield, heard the news. He could have endured an arrow shot in the arm but now he almost lost his balance and fainted.

Inside the tent.

The summoned military doctor quickly bandaged Wei Yuan's wound. He cut open the cloth on his arm, and the purple-black wound came into view.

Several people were waiting outside the tent.

Madam Wei looked at the generals and said, "You should go out and rest first. There is still another battle to fight."

Although the generals wanted to know the commander's current situation, they still bowed their heads and said, "Yes!"

Madam Wei and Wei Chuchu walked in: "Doctor, how is the general's condition?"

The military doctor bandaged the wound, turned around, and showed worry on his face: "The general has been poisoned. At present, we can only block it for a while, but it won't last long."

Upon hearing this, Wei Chuchu gripped the sword in her hand and became angry: "Those barbarians! Damn it, mother, let me go next time!"

"Why are you going? Your brother fainted for no reason, and now your father has been poisoned. Do you want our Wei family to have no descendants?" Mrs. Wei scolded in a stern tone.

"It's already like this, and you're still thinking about whether there will be a future!"

Wei Chuchu was angry and ran out.

"Madam Wei, I'll go take care of my own business first." The military doctor said as he picked up the medicine box.

There are countless wounded soldiers, alas, war.

"Okay, take care."

Mrs. Wei was the only one left in the tent.

"lady……"

Wei Yuan, who had been unconscious, woke up. Madam Wei hurried over and handed him a bowl of water. "Husband."

After Wei Yuan drank some water, his complexion improved a little. Thinking of the important things, he asked, "How is Yu Wen doing?

Mrs. Wei showed worry on her face: "It's hard to say at the moment."

The atmosphere also became tense at this time.

Wei Yuan's voice trembled: "It seems that God wants to destroy my Wei family."

"Husband, you should rest. You will be fine."

The journey of escorting food and fodder was not always smooth. When they were walking through the desert, after the yellow wind stopped, Lin Wannian took off the cloth covering his face, and it was covered with fine yellow sand.

He clicked his tongue and looked up at the endless sea of ​​sand. It was really not a place for human beings to stay.

"Prince, it will take some time to reach the border town." General Qin, who was in charge of escorting grain and fodder, rode his horse to Lin Wannian and said.

Yes.

Lin Wannian's grandfather directly exposed Lin Wannian's identity. After all, he was the emperor, and he did not dare to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor.

"Yes, I know."

The advantage of revealing your identity is that you will be treated with respect by others, but when you return to the imperial city, you will inevitably be swept by a bloody storm.

The matter with my cheap dad hasn't been resolved yet.

The whole team rested for a while.

Lin Wannian drank a sip of water and bit the compressed biscuits he made. It must be said that this was quite filling. He was not idle either, looking around with a homemade telescope, and this look directly made him see something big.

There were three Hu people in shepherd's clothes coming towards them stealthily from the back. Behind them were more than thirty people on horseback, carrying bows and arrows and swords.

He comes with ill intentions.

"General Qin." Lin Wannian put down the telescope and waved to the people who were resting.

Governor Qin walked over with a puzzled look on his face.

When he saw the traces of the Hu people with the telescope that Lin had used in his later years, he was full of shock and uncertainty. After a few more glances, he was sure that the people inside were walking. He asked, "Prince, how did you get this tool?"

Seeing him actually asking about this, Lin Wannian felt a little embarrassed: "Don't worry about the tools, solve this problem first."

"Oh, okay."

Logically speaking, they should have continued on their way after discovering that the Hu people had hijacked their food supplies, but night fell and it was easy to get lost while walking at night, and the soldiers' bodies could not bear it.

The only option is to use a counter-espionage tactic.

They set up camp early on two small hills around them, which looked like a spacious flat ground with a large patio.

Bonfires were lit on the flat ground, and the soldiers sat around them. The rice pots wafted with the tempting aroma of rice and meat.

No matter how delicious compressed biscuits are, they can’t stand up to hot food.

Lin Wannian filled a bowl and drank it with slurping sips, while General Qin was studying his telescope while drinking porridge.

He walked over and said, "General Qin, have you given all the orders?"

Governor Qin put down the telescope, putting it away like a treasure, with a simple smile on his rough face: "I have given you all the instructions. My Lord, your tool is really amazing. It can see such a far scene."

"Um."

When Lin reached out to take it back in his old age, Governor Qin was reluctant to let it go.

After nightfall, the voices of the soldiers gradually died down and they all went to rest.

At nightfall, the Hu people's grain-grabbing team appeared, their horses' hooves wrapped in cloth, coming from a distance in the darkness. They dismounted from their horses a hundred meters away and walked on foot.

When they arrived at the camp, they saw that it was quiet, so they went in. Suddenly, drums sounded, which frightened them. They rushed in quickly, moved the food, and prepared to run away.

When I was moving the grain, it felt very heavy. No one could lift it and I almost fell down. I used a knife to cut it open and saw that it was covered with yellow sand.

The leader of the Hu people then realized that they had fallen into a trap.
