"Sergeant Zhao, what can I do for you?"
Bai Shouren came over with Tang Yanhai!
"Second Master Bai, I asked you to come here to discuss the marching route."
Zhao Muyun invited Bai Shouren to sit down. "Where exactly is the west side of the prairie we're heading to? How long will it take? Is the person we're looking for really there?"
Bai Shouren smiled faintly, seemingly fearless:
"We just came out of Dayin's territory. Sergeant Zhao, don't worry! Don't worry, our Bai family has traveled many times to the grasslands south of Daqing Mountain, and even to the desert north of Daqing Mountain."
"So as long as we are here, we can find the person Sergeant Zhao is looking for."
oh?
Zhao Muyun heard the hidden meaning in Bai Shouren's words and sneered, "Second Master Bai, from what you said, we have to listen to you?"
"Captain Zhao, you misunderstood. How dare I give you orders?" Bai Shouren waved his hands repeatedly. "But, there's nothing I can do. You've never been here before. For now, you'll have to follow our lead!"
"After all, we will be entering the Tartar territory tomorrow. The situation between the two countries is so tense right now. We should avoid them as much as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble."
"Okay, you arrange the route!"
Zhao Muyun frowned slightly and said immediately, "But I require that we arrive at our destination within five days. Master Bai, that shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"Five days? Let me think about it!"
Bai Shouren deliberately touched his forehead. "Five days should be no problem! But, as you know, we are a caravan. If we don't sell our wares when passing through the Tartar nomadic settlements, it might arouse their suspicion!"
"I'll give you another day, six days!" Zhao Muyun's words left no room for doubt.
Seeing Zhao Muyun's firm decision, Bai Shouren did not argue with him on this issue.
He was already calculating the time in his mind.
Ever since Sun Jizong found the Bai family and asked them to go to the prairie, he immediately sent people to enter the prairie through the secret passage of Heituo Mountain to inform Timur.
Judging by the time, his men should have met Timur.
It would take almost three days for Timur to send people to block this area.
The place where the two sides might meet is estimated to be in the Xichuan and Xunye areas.
Bai Shouren only needs to slow down his schedule and show up in Xichuan in three days. By then, hehe...
Zhao Muyun saw Bai Shouren staring blankly in the firelight, so he reminded him, "Second Master Bai, are you all alright?"
"No problem, no problem!" Bai Shouren quickly came back to his senses. "Sergeant Zhao, do you have any other instructions? It's already late, go to bed early."
In ancient times, there was no electricity or television, and there seemed to be no other entertainment activities except sleeping and creating humans.
It's only around eight or nine o'clock in the evening, but it seems very late to them!
Bai Shouren couldn't help yawning and wanted to leave.
"Wait!" Zhao Muyun smiled slightly, "Please stay a little longer, Mr. Bai."
"?"
Bai Shouren stared at Zhao Muyun in a daze, while the latter smoothed out a patch of sand with his boots, then made a few simple horizontal and vertical strokes with the triangular spear.
"This is Daqing Mountain, this is Piantou Pass, this is Dahe, this is Shuozhou, this is Heituo Mountain..."
As Zhao Muyun made circles and dots on the sand and said a long string of place names, Bai Shouren's eyes suddenly widened, his face changed drastically, and he was shocked beyond words.
The rivers, mountains, and city locations painted by Zhao Muyun were exactly the same, as if he had been there before.
Bai Shouren always thought that Zhao Muyun was just a small soldier in the beacon tower, who was quite brave and was lucky enough to become a squad leader.
But he never expected that Zhao Muyun actually had such ability that he could know the mountains, rivers and gullies from Shuozhou to the north to the Daqing Mountains.
Bai Shouren's reliance on being familiar with the route immediately became insignificant in front of Zhao Muyun.
All he had left was probably the knowledge of where the valuable Tatar tribe was.
Tang Yanhai and Han Zhong were used to it at this moment.
From killing techniques, soldier training, espionage and reconnaissance, weapons and equipment, literacy and singing, to the current simple map drawing, Zhao Muyun's mind is like a vast treasure house, hiding endless treasures.
As long as you can learn one of his skills, you can run rampant in this chaotic world.
Han Zhong diligently learns military training from Zhao Muyun, Tang Yanhai enthusiastically asks Zhao Muyun for advice on reconnaissance techniques, and even Lao Li and Lao Zhang ask Zhao Muyun to teach them how to prepare military rations and cook...
As for drawing sand table maps, identifying directions, finding water sources, etc., for Zhao Muyun, these were the basic operations of the special forces of the Great Xia Kingdom in the previous life!
"Second Master Bai, can you show me our general route?"
Zhao Muyun looked at Bai Shouren with a smile, and handed the triangular spear in his hand to him!
From Bai Shouren's pretended friendly but actually arrogant attitude just now, Zhao Muyun knew that Bai Shouren relied on his familiarity with the area and thought that Zhao Muyun knew nothing and could only listen to his instructions obediently.
Didn't you say you were familiar with the route?
Then I'll draw a rough map and you can plan it for me, that's fine!
As soon as you outline it, your little advantage will be gone!
What is dimensionality reduction attack? This is it!
"Roughly... this is the route!"
Bai Shouren took the three-edged spear that was shining with cold light, and his palms were sweating.
This was the first time he had seen such a killing weapon, but he felt it was extraordinary.
He conscientiously outlined a route on the simple sand table drawn by Zhao Muyun.
