noon

Da da…

The sound of war horses sounded slowly, and the riders advanced lazily.

Two black spots came down the hillside. The two people on the horse were talking, and there were many branches on the horse.

"Old Ma, where are the camel thorns you mentioned? It's already noon, don't delay your meal!"

Gao Yu, who was one horse head behind, complained and followed him out to perform the task. As a result, Lao Ma insisted on bringing something back, saying that it was Yang Xiaotao's request.

The old horse looked at the sun and then at the direction ahead.

"Now, after passing that hillside, a little to the west, there is a puddle below, that's it!"

"I don't know if there is any water left."

"This damn cold god!"

Lao Ma said, reaching out and touching the red willow behind his back.

This was what he promised Yang Xiaotao, and he finally found it this time. Unfortunately, it has turned yellow now. If it were summer, the red flowers would be very gratifying.

After finally digging it out, I originally thought about going back, but thinking that Yang Xiaotao said the more the better, I thought there was a bunch of camel thorns here, and I just wanted to take it back.

"Lao Ma, do you think Teacher Yang will succeed? Will corn grow in saline-alkali soil?"

"I don't know, but Teacher Yang is a learned person and knows more than us!"

"That's right. Lao Ma, do you think this is salt corn? Do you no longer need to buy salt in the future?"

Gao Yu said something novel, and Lao Ma didn't know either, so he chirped, "Well, maybe, that's right."

"If they were all planted..."

The two of them walked together without stopping, down the hillside, and then walked for a while. When they were about to go uphill, they suddenly pulled on the reins and their expressions became tense.

He jumped off his horse and looked at the ground above him.

"Old horse, it's the horse's seal."

Gao Yu looked at it and said definitely.

"There are quite a few, look over there!"

"This is horse manure!"

The old horse pointed to the front. The surrounding land had been ravaged to create a carpet. The two sides were flat, and the trampled area was not full of stubble.

There are a series of horse dung in twos and threes, and there are many around.

"At least a hundred!"

Looking at it, these people must have stayed here. There are at least a hundred horse manure on site.

"Besides, it's been an hour."

Seeing that the land had turned yellow and dried out from the sun, the old horse stretched out his hand and pinched the horse dung and said definitely.

"Could it be a brother army?"

The old horse shook his head, "With such a large number of horses, several nearby farms are not enough. Besides, they are really brotherly troops. What are you doing here? This direction is not a farm."

Gao Yu frowned. In this Gobi desert, dangers are everywhere.

And the most dangerous ones are always people.

"What should we do? Go back and notify the farm?"

Lao Ma wiped it on the ground, "What else can I do? If you encounter it, just go and take a look and you will know."

After saying that, the two nodded, and Gao Yu took out his pistol, this time with enough bullets.

The old man took off the rifle from the horse's neck, the two of them got on the horse, and ran forward while talking about the traces.

The two of them were not very fast, and even more so when they sat down, the horse held back its strength to prevent accidents from happening.

The two of them had to be vigilant about their surroundings. Although the surrounding area was empty and there were no mountains or dense forests, the terrain was rugged and bumpy. They might not find a group of people jumping out of the ditch until they came to see them.

"Old Ma, look, the road is gone!"

The two stopped in front of a bush. Gao Yu pointed at the horse prints that disappeared in front of them, as if they were suddenly smoothed away.

The old man stood on his horse, holding a rifle in his right hand and scanning the surroundings with his eyes.

If the road is gone, it means that the other party is covering up their whereabouts and has bad intentions.

It also shows that the enemy is on the left and right.

The two looked at each other and both became more vigilant.

"Xiao Gao, go back!"

Lao Ma looked at the surrounding terrain for a while and recalled in his mind that there was a puddle three to five miles ahead. If a large group of people wanted to hide their traces, that would be the best choice.

However, the most important thing right now is to spread the news. Regardless of whether the other party is friend or foe, the farm must be prepared.

"No, I'll go with you."

Gao Yu refused, saying that he could still help if he stayed. In this vast neighborhood, as long as the two of them helped, he could always run away.

"Don't waste time, go back quickly."

"What if it's an enemy and they hide their whereabouts and come here, it's only two hours away from our farm."

"Let Captain Mu be prepared. You know, if something happens to those things on the farm, no one can afford it."

The old horse said sharply, Gao Yu wanted to refute, but the old horse didn't give him a chance to speak. He kicked Gao Yu's horse as he sat down, causing the horse to run away in pain.

At the next moment, a gunshot was heard, and both of them jumped.

While running, Gao Yu turned around and saw five or six cavalrymen rushing down the hillside not far away, shooting with guns in their hands.

The gunshot just now hit the ground. If he hadn't been kicked by Lao Ma, he would have been hit.

"Run!"

The old horse reacted quickly, clamped its legs between its belly, and the horse galloped forward, stabbing sideways.

Gao Yu glanced at the people rushing down, weighed the importance in his mind, leaned down, and accelerated his horse.

bang bang bang

Gunshots continued and bullets roared.

On the hillside, Tieying watched the two people escaping with anger.

The sentry who was originally on duty had already discovered the two of them, but he didn't want to alert the enemy, so he didn't take action.

Tie Ying led his men to ambush here, intending to catch both of them in one fell swoop.

Butterfly even wanted to take something out of their mouths to confirm the target.

But when the other party was about to enter the encirclement, he suddenly stopped. His posture must have been to go back and report the news.

They had no choice but to shoot the two of them and leave them alone.

But unexpectedly, by some mistake, he missed again.

"Catch them, don't let them escape!"

Tie Ying gritted his teeth and shouted, and asked five or six people to chase Gao Yu who was escaping.

Butterfly frowned, "Captain Tie, we've been exposed, there's no need to wait any longer."

"I think it's better to be smart and do it now."

Tie Ying was stunned, "Do you know where the target is?"

Butterfly frowned for a moment, "The general location is correct, there are so many of us, are we afraid that we can't find it?"

Tieying was conflicted. The original plan was to make a surprise attack at night, which would have a high success rate and cause few casualties.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Now, in broad daylight, leading a group of cavalry to attack the enemy's defense line is still well prepared. Even if they are defeated, they will suffer heavy casualties.

These are all his brothers.

"Captain Tie, don't hesitate! We are here, surrounded by enemies. If we delay any longer, we will be doomed."

"Besides, the one who ran away happened to be leading the way for us."

Tieying was so reminded by Butterfly that she suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

"you're right."

"That's it!"

After saying that, he turned around and asked his men to mount their horses.

bang bang bang

The old horse rode away and turned around to shoot.

The people behind him also fired, so that both sides carefully controlled the direction while chasing and escaping.
