The Sacred Ding Chapter 263: Inside thief

For the time being, there is nowhere to be found. It is within a thousand miles of Black Mountain. In Baishiyu’s fortification, training, and farming, the generals Fan Dachun, Han Wendang, and Guo Hong were in charge. Chen Hai was a little more relaxed. Since there is such a thing I thought, immediately dispatched four teams of heavy soldiers to dig sand and wells 20 miles around the cliff to detect how deep the underground rock formations are and their topography.

The situation around the cliff is the same as Chen Hai predicted. The sand on the top of the rock is only thirty or forty meters, and the black sandstone layer is dense and hard as iron below.

Of course, this is only the situation near the cliff. It is a huge project to change the flow of the lakes and rivers of the 20 oasis. It is necessary to understand the conditions of the underground rock formations in the three hundred miles of Black Mountain. Make the final decision, otherwise, the wasted manpower and material resources would be too scary.

Chen Hai set up an exploration team with a size of more than 40 people directly under the heavy camp to take charge of this matter.

This is really going to happen. With Montenegro as the core and a three-hundred-mile radius of the sandy sea, even if one-third or one-quarter of the area can give birth to new oasis, it is extremely impressive. .

And the springs beneath the Heishan Mountain are likely to be connected to the Pinglu Lake in the Pinglu Oasis, mainly from the meltwater from the glaciers in Wushaoling. The water resources should be sufficient.

After sending out the exploration team, Chen Hai led the Ma Bujun and the heavy battalion to continue on the road, preparing to rush to Baishiyu to join the main force.

As soon as I started the journey, I saw a dark shadow rushing from far away.

After a while, Chen Hai could see that it was the iron scale giant eagle that Han Qingyuan took to contact Han Jian and other soldiers of the Han family.

Han Qingyuan flew down from Lingying’s back and bowed his hands to Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er and said: "Qingyuan has lived up to the entrustment of the country’s envoy. Han Jian led three hundred Han children and has already escaped from the black mountain bandits. Pursue, you should be able to reach Montenegro in three days and wait for the envoy of the state to send you!"

"Okay!" Chen Hai said happily.

The Deng clan was severely hit. In the end, only a dozen people followed Deng Tonger to join Jinxiangling and fell into the grass. The Han clan where Han Qingyuan and Han Jian belonged, more than a thousand tribesmen were exiled and took the mountain as a bandit, regardless of the system. The teaching of Taoism and the strict discipline and regularity within the clan are far beyond the reach of ordinary horse thieves.

The return of the Han family means that Chen Haineng has selected a group of qualified military attachés and civilian officials-this is also the key to the fact that Jing Juejun can truly become an elite tiger and wolf division.

Chen Hai trained in Fujiaoling and dared to suppress the children of the sect because there were a group of unfamiliar children available, but in the depths of the sand sea, the children of the Han sect were not the best choice, but they were more daring The leader of the horse thief is much more reliable.

The big deal, first support the Han family to become a family in the periphery of the Western Qiang Kingdom, and then spend time to train some children of civilian origin to check and balance.

"The thief who colluded between the Western Qiang Kingdom and the Black Mountain Bandit has already emerged in Yequ Mountain. The envoy of the country may think of who it is?" Han Qingyuan also brought back very important news this time. He hoped that Han could get rid of the horse. The bandit's notoriety has regained the opportunity to establish a clan in the depths of the desert and become a world leader, and now I still hope to build more merits.

"Kong Peng was ordered to kill the whole clan by Ye Chentian, the lord of the Western Qiang Kingdom. It is rumored that he had an affair with a princess of Ye Chentian," Chen Hai said, "According to the current situation, The princess who died of suicide may not be the one who really had an affair with Kong Peng."

"The envoy of the country is really a magical calculation..." Han Qingyuan and Chen Hai have been in contact for a short period of time, and there is no opportunity to contact and talk in private, but he is also dumbfounded by the miraculous rise of the outstanding army. I believe Han's recovery The opportunity of the clan should be pinned on Chen Hai.

Although Black Mountain Wuzun Kong Peng and the envoy behind the scenes are much stronger and more powerful, Jing Juejun has little chance of winning in the end, but the Han family has a chance to retreat into Hexi with Jing Juejun, and he still misses one. Good choice.

Even if Han Qingyuan is not like Deng Tonger, who can directly guess Chen Hai’s identity, he believes that Chen Hai must have a very high status in Hexi and the Dayan Empire.

It's not just that Chen Hai has such a powerful force at such a young age. Chen Hai's extraordinary military talent is the talent that a major sect is most valued. The Han family has no foothold in Jinzhou. Kou is not a long-term solution, it is a good choice to have Hexi or Dayan inside.

"All the bandits encircled Yequ Mountain. The envoy led his troops to attack Black Mountain, Black Falcon Cliff, and Jinxiangling Villages. The morale of the black army was almost collapsed. Many horse thieves wanted to withdraw and leave to protect their roots. "It was the Queen Zhang of Ye Chentian, the lord of the West Qiang Kingdom, who came forward to make a promise and soothed people's hearts," Han Qingyuan said. "It's very secret at this time. There are leaders of the villages in Yequ Mountain who have seen the queen's face. , I only know about the promise."

"Queen Zhang had an affair with Wuzun of Black Mountain?" Chen Haineng guessed that he had an affair with Kong Peng by someone else, but he did not expect it to be the Queen Zhang, who was rumored to have a deep relationship with Ye Chentian, the lord of Xiqiang. .

"Yes, Queen Zhang returned to Zhang's clan to recuperate due to illness. In fact, she has been secretly staying with the old thief Kong Peng. This is what Han Jian saw with his own eyes..." Han Qingyuan said.

"Will you know the Lord of Xiqiang and save your little lover's husband?" Ning Chan'er asked jokingly.

"Han Jian flees, Black Mountain Wuzun Kong Peng and Queen Zhang will certainly not take the opportunity to become immature, they will start early," Chen Hai frowned and asked Han Qingyuan, "What is the strength of the Zhang family?"

"The Zhang clan, the ruler advocates the male, is also the father of the queen Zhang, and is one of the strongest of the four Dao Dan realms in the West Qiang country; at this time, counting Kong Peng, there are still five Dao Dan realms in the West Qiang country. Characters. The Zhang family rose late. Zhang Xiong also cultivated Dao Dan during the Great Yan's West Expedition to Jinzhou. In recent years, he has been hidden in Tianai Mountain for cultivating. At this time, Zhang Jun, the second figure of Zhang's family, served as Xiqiang. The deputy captain of the National Southern Army, in the West Qiang State, was under the command of the captains of the Northern and Southern Armies. However, Ye Qinglin led the Southern Army with 20,000 elite cavalry to aid Yequ Mountain. He was frustrated and was trapped in Crescent Lake. At this time, he was in Xiqiang. , Zhang Jun is temporarily acting as the captain of the Southern Army, and the remaining soldiers and horses of the Southern Army are all with Zhang's children as the main generals..." Han Qingyuan said.

Chen Hai frowned, the soldiers and horses of the West Qiang State, apart from the relatively independent guards of Zhucheng, the soldiers and horses under the command of the royal family Ye clan were divided into two armies, and the northern armies were mainly to guard against the depths of the vast desert. The horse thieves are relatively weak in strength and personnel. The cavalry has increased the armored infantry by about 40,000; the Southern Army is responsible for the defense of the Tibetan and Qiang Kingdom, the strongest, with about 60,000 cavalry and heavy armor.

This means that the Zhang clan is very likely to master 40,000 elites to launch a coup. If Ye Chentian, the lord of the West Qiang Kingdom, and the Northern Army do not have enough defenses, they are afraid it will be inevitable.

Will Ye Chentian, the lord of the West Qiang Kingdom, have enough defense?

It’s hard for Chen Hai to think about it. He thought of seeing those excellent soldiers engraved with the seal of the Northern Army’s captain’s mansion in the Black Mountain Village. He once mistakenly thought that there were generals and Kong Peng in the Northern Army of the Western Qiang Kingdom. Collusion, even if Ye Chentian, the Lord of the Western Qiang Kingdom, had some defenses, he would most likely be misled by the Zhang clan and suspect the Northern Army generals.

"What's the situation of the disabled soldiers led by Ye Qinglin?" Chen Hai asked again.

"The Lord of the West Qiang country should be aware of internal problems. After Ye Qinglin's troops were frustrated, he did not send reinforcements. Ye Qinglin led the remnants to break through and return to the West Qiang country, but suffered several setbacks. At this time, there were more than 3,000 soldiers. The horse was surrounded by Songyang Lake..." Han Qingyuan said.

"That's not far from us." Chen Hai said with emotion.

Han Qingyuan rode away the iron scale giant eagle, and the Jing Jue Army’s reconnaissance range was limited. He could only place the scout horse seven or eight hundred miles away. It was not known that the remnants of Ye Qinglin and the Black Mountain Invaders had fought several times. It's only more than two thousand miles.

When Han Qingyuan returned, Chen Hai would not be delayed halfway, leaving the heavy camp and the two thousand horse infantry slow. He, Ning Chan'er and Han Qingyuan rushed to Baishiyu first, and joined the main force.

It is said that it is Baishiyu, two or three hundred feet high Shiling, which is mainly composed of black sandstone layers. Only in the depths of Shiling, there is a section of Baishi Valley with a depth of 100 meters, hence the name Baishiyu.

Baishiyu, Shiling is about four miles long from east to west. There are several springs distributed at the southern foot of Shiling. Several streams and rivers are twisted and crooked. Ten miles away from the south of the mountain, they converge into a lake with a radius of a thousand acres.

With this lake as the center, the Baishiyu Oasis is about 400 square kilometers, with lush grass and trees.

After the Black Mountain bandits occupy the Black Mountain, in order to prevent the surrounding tribes from breeding resistance~IndoMTL.com~ the tribes in Baishiling are forced to demolish the walled city.

Thousands of houses are located in a patchwork between Shiling and the lake. After Fan Dachun, Han Wendang, and Guo Hongzhen led the main forces to arrive, they have already started to build a new wall on the previously destroyed wall. But this is not something that can be done in three or five days.

In the oasis, the soil is a precious resource and cannot be mined casually. Fortunately, the Guhuo mountain horse thief is wiped out and a set of flame-collecting talisman arrays are obtained for refining.

This set of flame-collecting talisman has an extraordinary rank, and the temperature of the flame formed by the condensed Xuanyang Gang Sha energy is enough to smelt thousands of catties of gold-quenched iron at a time. The multiple furnaces built by Juquanling also All use this level of flame-collecting talisman array.

At this time, there was no gold-quenched iron material to smelt. Fan Dachun and the others built a smelting furnace on the basis of this flame-collecting talisman array. The large bricks made by mining sand are bigger than black sandstone. Sturdy; this time combined with four to five thousand laborers entering Shiling to mine stone, can speed up the construction of the city.

At this time, even if a half-meter-high retaining wall is built around the Walled City, it is much better than no shelter.

When Baishiyu was at its peak, there were more than 30,000 people breeding and breeding here. In this area controlled by the Black Mountain bandits, a large number of people went into exile or were persecuted, and the number of people dropped to less than 10,000.

At this time, the main force of Jing Jue Army gathered more than 15,000 people, and the freed slaves from Guhuo Mountain and other villages were also constantly shifting here, Baishiyu time became lively again.

Although the scope of Baishiyu Oasis is not small and the water resources are still abundant, the pressure is still great when forty to fifty thousand people gather and a large number of livestock and horses are transferred.

Chen Hai rushed to Baishiyu, first summoned Fan Dachun, Guo Hongjuan, Han Wendang, etc. to discuss the matter, and informed everyone about the situation of the Zhang family; on Deng Tonger's side, Chen Hai also sent iron scales specially The giant eagle went to take it over to attend the meeting.
