"All troops stop!"

The orders were slowly passed forward and backward, and then the entire queue gradually stopped amidst the flying smoke. The horses snorted and scratched their hooves on the ground. The camels remained silent.

Gritting their teeth and chewing cud, these big guys seem to be eating all the time anyway.

"Stubborn Stone!" Captain Gao shouted, "Come here!"

In the army, there are many people called Shitou Goudan, but there is just one stubborn Shitou. His temper is stubborn and smelly, as if he was fished out of a latrine. "You lead a small team, follow him, and clear the way in front."

!Especially around the shoals, check everything for me!』

"I obey the order!" Stubborn Stone greeted, led the team, and then turned northwest with the guide.

Captain Gao held his horse and watched as Stubborn Stone was led away. He pursed his lips and looked into the distance along the direction of the team. He seemed to be thinking about something, but also seemed not to be thinking about anything.

Gao Duwei was originally from Jizhou. As for why he came to the Western Regions, it is a bit puzzling. According to private discussions among the soldiers, Gao Duwei once served in the family of Liang Qian Shi, but I don’t know whether it is true or not. Anyway,

I have never seen Captain Gao himself say this.

Compared with the family, Datoubing was more interested in Captain Gao's martial prowess. It is said that Captain Gao killed two wolves with his bare hands and was then bumped into by Protector Lu, so he fell in love with him at a glance. Of course,

Some people say that it was not a wolf but a tiger that was killed with bare hands...

Some people also say that Captain Gao was protected by gods and Buddhas and protected by golden light, so he could subdue wolves and tigers. The Western Regions were eroded by Buddhism earlier and more severely than the Han Dynasty...

In the Western Regions, there are many brave and powerful people, and they must be like the fool Yun Er who sticks to Lu Bu every day. When he starts to attack, there are really not many who can hold back, but those who know both paperwork and martial arts can

There are not many left, so this is an important reason why Captain Gao quickly became a middle-level non-commissioned officer.

However, Captain Gao didn't pay much attention to these discussions. He was more concerned about the safety of the Luoma Team.

The army has not moved, but the food and grass have gone first.

Wusun has always been not very fond of Lu Bu, the newly appointed Protector of the Western Regions. On the one hand, it is because since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty's control over the Western Regions has declined rapidly.

The Kunmi's strategy of mutual checks and balances was also abandoned. Wusun reunited into one family, no longer divided into big and small Kunmi. After breaking away from the control of the Han, they gradually became aware of the Han people's method of sowing discord against Wusun.

, naturally there is a lot more disgust and hatred.

Another reason is that to the west of Wusun is Kangju. Kangju was originally a tribe of Dayue clan, which was a tribe that split off from Yunrong, but it was greatly impacted by the westward migration of the Northern Xiongnu, and these

Naturally, the Northern Huns also brought hatred towards the Han...

Therefore, Lu Bu wants to conquer Wusun. In fact, behind Wusun, there is Kangju who has grown in size. In history, Kangju finally declined due to the battle with Kuishang, but at this point in time, Kangju was still very arrogant.

In fact, like most nomads, when they are weak, they want to wag their tails when they see everyone. Once they feel that they are strong, they will show their teeth when they see everyone.

The men and horses brought by Captain Gao were not full at first, and they had been responsible for transporting grain and supplies since March. Coupled with fatigue and illness, there were always some manpower shortages after several errands, and there were also

Wusun's ranger scouts and the horse thieves and bandits in the Gobi fought hand to hand, resulting in dozens more casualties. Therefore, Captain Gao actually only had more than 200 people with him now.

This number, of course, is not a big problem if it is used to protect the transshipment of grain and grass on a safe route, but if it is to leave the safe route and go to a new grain transportation location...

Captain Gao had heard of the Ancient Ali Village before. It was attacked by General Gao Shun some time ago. It was regarded as the frontline base of Wusun. So from here to the Ancient Ali Village, it is basically equivalent to entering.

Wusun's territory may encounter Wusun's cavalry at any time.

Although there were guides sent by the original army camp to guide the way, to a certain extent, this area was also an area actually controlled by the Han army. However, Captain Gao was worried about the lack of troops in his hands, and secondly, he used the original military camp to

This road to the new grain transportation point has never been traveled before, so we need to be more careful.

While Captain Gao spread the news about the reconnaissance cavalry, he restrained the grain team to keep their marching speed and maintain their formation, slowly meandering toward the northwest. A thought came to his mind. This time, the troops of his team would
Chapter completed!
