Soon, Alapu entered the palace again and asked Chuhe to order the cities of Cao and Kang to be released so that the Tang Dynasty envoys could go to Samat to build the city.
Because if Chuhe did not give the order, Zhao Ziliang and more than 200 people would have no choice but to Staying in Jujanti City, Arap wants to send troops disguised as horse bandits and it is impossible to attack Jujanti City.
Under Alap's pressure, Chuhe had to order the cities along the way to let the Tang Dynasty mission pass, and Zhao Ziliang and his party were able to get back on the road and march all the way to Kang State.
"Profuse sweating, profuse sweating, something bad is going on, something is going wrong," Master Mu rushed to Chu He in a panic to report.
Chu He frowned and said: "What happened?
Could it be that guy Arap has done something else?"
"Isn't that right?
A servant came to report that early this morning, a large group of soldiers and horses came out of the cannibal's military camp.
After hearing this, the minister felt that something was wrong, so he immediately asked someone to go to the city gate to inquire.
According to the city The gatekeeper said that this morning, Apu's deputy general Apu led eight hundred cavalry out of the city.
The minister guessed that they must have gone to attack the envoys of the Tang Dynasty."
Chu He's face turned pale when he heard this.
He was so shocked that he lost all his souls.
He fell down on the low mountain.
He looked stupid and kept muttering: "It's over, it's over.
If the Tang Dynasty envoy is The Tang Dynasty must think that our Kang State is responsible for the attack.
The Celestial Army will come to attack at any time.
Our Kang State is going to be finished.
Why didn’t you come and report it earlier?”
Master Mu's mouth was full of bitterness when he heard the words, "Great Khan, could it be that the humble minister had come to report earlier?
You would have sent someone to inform the Tang Dynasty envoy.
If the Great Eater knew about it, what would be the consequences?
Great Khan, the Great Eater is ruthless." , as long as you don't do what they want, your life will be in danger at any time, let alone giving...
The people of the Tang Dynasty tipped off the news.
Anyway, now the cannibal's knife is on our necks, and the Tang Dynasty is farther away from us.
Let's wait until we get past this hurdle.
If the Tang Dynasty really goes to war because of this matter, When the army comes to the city, it will not be too late for us to shift the responsibility to the cannibals."
After hearing Master Mu's words, Chu He thought that what he said was reasonable, and at this time he could only resign himself to fate.
It took Zhao Ziliang and his party two days to arrive at Buenjikat, the capital of Dongcao, from Jujanti City.
After some repairs and supplies in Buenjikat, they continued to the capital of Kang State, Samat, to build the city.
From Buenjikat There are still more than 200 miles to Samajian.
Most of the way is desert area.
The team is moving slowly.
Others Fortunately, the main reason was that mother and daughter Chen Qingying and Wang Zhiyun could not ride horses.
Because they were locked in a cage for a long time and moved around, their bodies were weak.
They slowed down the progress of the entire team.
Later, Zhao Ziliang had to Let Chu Ge send someone to lead their horses, so that the team can move faster.
One day after setting off from Bunjikat, Zhao Ziliang ordered to camp under a sand dune in the evening, and sent out sentries to investigate.
At the same time, he sent people to hide in the sand high in the dunes around the camp as secret sentries.
Once anyone approached, he would immediately Shooting a loud arrow as a warning, after all, they are in a foreign country where they are unfamiliar and severely hostile to them, so it is always better to be careful.
After the camp was set up, several large fires were lit in the open space in the middle.
A dozen large iron pots were placed on the fire.
Fragrant mutton was cooked in each pot, and green vegetables were cooked in several pots.
The situation stunned Balu, a guide who often traveled to the Zhaowu Kingdom.
He really couldn't figure out where the dry wood could be used to make fires in this vast desert, and why these Tang people had so much water to cook mutton, vegetables and bake sesame seed cakes.

Also, where are there so many vegetables here in this season?
All these questions made Paris incredible.
However, as a guide at this time, he was very smart and did not ask Zhao Ziliang about these.
He only knew that this time he was on the journey in his life.
It was the most comfortable experience in his life.
The abundant fresh water made him not only not thirsty, but also full of energy and energy because he drank enough water every day.
Balu was holding a cowhide water bag in one hand and a piece of sesame seed cake rolled with green vegetables in the other hand.
He saw Zhao Ziliang squatting on the ground roasting a big leg of lamb.
He walked over to Zhao Ziliang and squatted down and asked: "General, these Little Lord Tian saw that you eat a leg of mutton and several pancakes per ton.
Your appetite is so big, no wonder you are so strong and brave."
Hearing this, Zhao Ziliang flipped the leg of lamb and said with a smile: "The more you eat, the stronger you will be.
We people are different from you.
We work hard to survive with our heads up.
The stronger the force, the higher the chance of survival, and the higher the status."
The higher it is, by the way, you often walk back and forth in this area, how do you feel, will you feel bored?"
Balu smiled and said: "Of course, I have been in this desert for many years, seeing the same color every day, how can I not be upset?
But as you said, it's all about making a living, no matter how boring it is.
You have to run back and forth, otherwise you won’t have anything to eat.”
At this time, Zhao Ziliang saw Chen Qingying and Wang Zhiyun, mother and daughter, each carrying a piece of bread and a bowl of water, walking to the fire next to them and sitting down.
They were gnawing on the bread and drinking water, chewing slowly, and sipping with the others.
Big mouthfuls of eating are completely different.
At this time, the leg of lamb was almost roasted.
He thought for a while, took out a sharp knife from the right side of the calf and cut off two pieces of meat from the leg of lamb.
He took it and walked over to them: "Here, you two, mother and daughter."
My bones are too weak, I need to eat more meat, take it."
Chen Qingying was "flattered" and sincerely declined, "Ah, how can this be allowed?
The general has a big appetite, so you should keep it for yourself.
We, mother and daughter, can just eat noodles with vegetables.
We really don't need it."
Although Chen Qingying said this, her daughter Wang Zhiyun had already swallowed her saliva when she saw the fragrant mutton.
Zhao Ziliang heard it clearly and put two fist-sized pieces of mutton into her hands with a straight face and said in a stiff tone: "If you are told to eat, you will eat.
How come there is so much nonsense to keep your body healthy so that it will not slow us down?
Do you understand?"
When Chen Qingying came to her senses and was about to say thanks, Zhao Ziliang had already returned to his original position and sat down to continue chatting with Paris.
At this time, Brahan came over and sat next to Zhao Ziliang and whispered: "General, there are sand dunes on both sides of the northwest here.
It is very dangerous to camp in such terrain.
Once the enemy attacks, it will not be easy for us to retreat.
After all, there are sand dunes behind us, and the enemy will not give us enough time to turn around and rush up the sand dunes to break out.
Moreover, if the enemy goes around behind us, we will be surrounded."
Zhao Ziliang nodded, picked up the lamb leg that had been tested, opened his mouth, took a big bite, and ate it.
While eating, he said vaguely: "I know that even if the enemy attacks, I have no intention of turning around and retreating to break through.
This kind of Due to the terrain, we can only use the huge impact of the cavalry if we charge forward, and since there are sand dunes behind us, the enemy's After the cavalry rushes over, they have to stop.
They will lose speed, which is beneficial to us.
Therefore, as long as our army does not turn around and retreat, the terrain will be beneficial to us and disadvantageous to the enemy.
In addition, I have already sent the Chu Ge faction.

There are people hiding in the sand on the dunes.
If an enemy comes around behind us, the hidden sentry will shoot a loud arrow to warn us."
Brahan breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Since the general has been prepared, I can rest assured that I will take care of my subordinates.
Chu Ge and I will take turns on duty tonight.
General, just have a good sleep."
Zhao Ziliang was not polite, "Okay, I'll leave it to you."
In the middle of the night, Zhao Ziliang was woken up by Bo Han.
"General, the situation is not good.
One of the scouts returned with serious injuries.
He died just after saying the words "enemy troops."
When Zhao Ziliang heard this, his whole body felt as if he was trembling.
He suddenly lost his sense of care and immediately stood up, "Where is he?"
“Just outside the tent” When he came to the body of the detective, a large number of people had gathered around him, and even the guide Balu crowded over.
After inspection, Zhao Ziliang found that the detective had an arrow in the abdomen and died of excessive bleeding.
"Which direction did he come back from?"
Braham replied: "Southwest" Balu immediately said: "General, the city of Samadhi in Kang State is in the southwest, at most one hundred and fifty miles away from here."
Zhao Ziliang looked at Brahan again and asked, "When he escaped back, were there any enemy sentries chasing him behind him?"
Brahan nodded and said: "Yes, there are quite a few people, about a dozen riders."
Zhao Ziliang looked at the team leaders, team leaders, and commanders present with a solemn expression and said: "The enemy sentries are chasing and killing them nearby.
It seems that the enemy's main force is not far away from us.
We don't know the identity and identity of the enemy yet."
"Troop strength situation" Chu Ge asked: "General, what should we do?"
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while, then turned to look at the stretching sand dunes in the northwest and northwest directions behind him, and immediately said: "Send the order, everyone retreats to the sand dunes in the northwest and hides.
All the horses are taken away, all the lights are extinguished, leaving a The empty camp is here” "Uh-huh," Chu Ge agreed immediately
