Chapter 1078

However, to the disappointment of the generals, mojiazi smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"The general thinks highly of the Mohist school. Although the Mohist skill is magical, it is because there are things that can be used to turn decay into magic, but it is impossible to turn water out of thin air. If it is summer, Mo may have a way to collect a small amount of water. Although it will not solve the difficulties, he will not let the soldiers die because of hunger and thirst. At the moment, in winter and spring, please forgive Mo's incompetence."

"Ah!"

Hou Junji was suddenly disappointed. He didn't expect that even the great Mohist school could do nothing about it. This time, the army was really dangerous. Even if he forced out of the Gobi desert, I'm afraid it would be a heavy loss.

The eyes of the generals were dim one after another. Coupled with the unbearable hunger and thirst, a restless atmosphere filled the air.

"However, I have some immature suggestions on how to get out of trouble in the desert. I don't know what to say!" Merton suddenly changed his words.

The generals immediately brightened their eyes and raised a hope in their hearts again. Immature suggestions are also suggestions! It's better than they are confused, let alone from the mouth of Mohists. It's much better than most people's careful consideration.

"Isn't this general Hou the best negative example?" the generals were disgusted. Of course, no one said it.

"Mo sacrificial wine has something to say. Now the army has reached a critical juncture. Even if there is a glimmer of hope, we will try it." Hou Junji said. Up to now, we can only treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor.

"That's right, you boy, don't talk about it. If you have anything to say, we can get out of the desert by finding the water source as soon as possible,

Merton nodded: "in fact, the army is trapped in the desert. There is no precedent in ancient books. I wonder if you have heard that old horses know the way."

"Old ma knows the way?" the people were stunned. This is a famous story. Who hasn't heard of it.

Hou Junji said unhappily, "mohou will not treat us as white men who don't know big characters! This is Han Feizi." In the story, it is about Duke Huan and Guan Zhong of Qi who attacked Guzhu country and won the return army, but were trapped in the desert. Finally, because the old horse knew the way, he finally got out of the desert and explored the ant cave, which found the water source. Now our army has the compass created by mohou, and did not take a detour. It is even more in the Gobi desert. There is no vitality. Where will there be an ant cave? "

Everyone nodded. Everyone in the world knew the story. Naturally, they also knew that it had nothing to do with finding water.

"Yes, besides, the horses we rode are the first time to the vast Gobi. We don't even have an old horse. Why do we know the way for an old horse?" Xue Wanjun frowned.

Hearing the general's retort, Merton smiled and said, "indeed, our army does not have old horses, but there are old people!"

"Old man?" the generals were stunned. All the officers and men in the army were young men. I'm afraid the oldest in the army were Hou Junji, Xue Wanjun and Niu JINDA,

Niu JINDA said displeased, "what does Marquis Mo mean? Is he asking Niu whether he is old enough to eat?"

In a hurry, even Niu JINDA began to write articles.

Merton quickly explained, "what the last general said is not that old. It is indeed the first time for us to come to the vast Gobi, but a general did not take this road for the first time."

"There is a general?" the generals frowned, looked at each other, and suddenly focused on Qixin He Li.

"General Qipeng should be no stranger to this Gobi!" Merton looked at Qixin He Li.

The people suddenly understood what Mohist Zi said about old ma Zhitu. Qixin He Li was the Khan of Qixin tribe. Later, he led the people to Tang. But before that, he was the Khan of grassland tribe, and Qixin tribe was adjacent to the Gobi desert. The Gobi didn't have much secret to him.

Qixin He Li was stunned. The Tang Dynasty has always regarded him as a qualified thug, including this western expedition to Gaochang, and he has always adhered to his duty. He is extremely brave in every battle and has made great achievements, but he didn't expect that he would have other uses this time.

"Yes, I visited Gaochang many times with my father and walked this road several times. However, it has been a long time. There are many changes in the desert, and I can't guarantee whether the former water source is still there." Qixin Heli hesitated.

"It doesn't matter. Now we are at a dead end. We can't give up even if there is a glimmer of hope. General Qixin can rest assured to find water." Hou Junji made a quick decision.

"It's OK to go to find the water source before the low rank, but the low rank needs a thousand cavalry, one person riding three times, and a large number of empty water bags are needed to hold water." Qixin Heli added that one person riding three times is the highest configuration of cavalry. Only with this speed can we find the water source and bring it back as quickly as possible.

Hou Junji said without hesitation, "you can choose thousands of horses from Qixin tribe. Naturally, our general will match you with the fastest horse. As for the water bag, the water bag of the whole army has been empty for you."

Qixin helidun was greatly moved. His search for water was related to the life and death of 100000 troops. Once he took the initiative to delay, he might be able to bury these 100000 troops in this yellow sand. At that time, he would be treated as a hero whether he went to Gaochang or west Turk, but Hou Junji fully trusted him and directly asked him to select cavalry from his headquarters.

"The most important thing is that the water source of this trip is quite far away and uncertain. It is often impossible to find the water source for several days. In addition, we also need to ensure the physical strength of the war horse. At the end, we will need to carry enough water." Qixin he Li stopped his eyes on the water tanker.

Hou Junji was immediately silent. It is very important to know that this waterwheel can be related to the lives of 100000 troops.

"I didn't expect that the Tang people still didn't trust me!" Qixin Heli felt desolate in his heart, and suddenly a voice came from his ear.

"You can take half of the water and use it on the road. The remaining half of the general should be kept to save the lives of the whole army." Hou Junji said firmly.

Qixin He Li looked up and couldn't believe it. He looked at Hou Junji. Half of the water of 100000 troops, and his 1000 cavalry carried half of the water. It can be said that Hou Junji gave him the greatest trust.

Hou Junji solemnly saluted Qixin He Li and said, "I'd like to ask general Qixin for the lives of 100000 troops."

The generals also saluted Qixin Heli one after another.

"The end general will certainly live up to the expectations of all generals and will find the water source." Qi Xin He Li solemnly said.

Soon, Qixin Heli summoned a thousand cavalry and three thousand war horses. Each batch of war horses was full of empty water bags,

After a thousand cavalry replenished the water for the horses, there was not much water left in the half car. A thousand cavalry immediately galloped to the north with the rest of the water under the leadership of Qixin Heli.
