Chapter 883: The Role of Izhama Seeking the Moon
The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is extremely large, even if the sun has just set, the temperature suddenly drops.
The Ming army quickly built a bonfire.
They don't want to catch a cold in such a ghost place.
I was infected with wind and cold in the desert, but no doctor picked herbs to treat them.
If you really get sick, you can only ask for more blessings.
The Ming army formed a large circle with a bonfire burning in the middle, and everyone sat there to keep the fire warm.
Liu Xingming was thinking about his next plan while eating baked naan.
As of the current situation, it is estimated that there will be at least ten days to arrive in the prosperous capital of the Bukhara Khanate, and half a month is not impossible.
The Ming army should have enough food for one month, so there is no need to worry too much about the food problem.
But Liu Xingming was worried about one thing that was to get lost.
Although they brought a guide to the west this time, nothing can be guaranteed in the vast desert, even the guide is the same.
Guides rely on experience and memory to lead the way.
But experience and memories will be buried by sand and dust.
Maybe there were some imprints yesterday, and everything will be hidden without any trace after a sandstorm.
The Ming army must look for clues so that they will not get lost in the vast desert.
Of course, you must not get sick.
Although the morale of the Ming army was very high, it was a flesh and blood body after all.
Some things cannot be carried by resistance.
It is best to be cautious so that you can be foolproof.
After eating the baked naan, Liu Xingming took off the water bag and poured water into his mouth.
After finally finding such a freshwater lake, Ming Jun naturally had to open it and drink it.
In this way, even if you drink all the water, you can get replenishment as soon as possible.
There is still a long way to go to rush, and the Ming army must accumulate energy and have a good rest.
Liu Xingming ordered to go to bed early, and everyone except the people on duty got into the tent early.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Liu Xingming got up early.
It would be fine if he didn't leave the tent, but he was really shocked as soon as he left the tent.
I saw sand dunes moving towards the Ming army camp, almost a short distance away.
According to this situation, perhaps in a little while, the Ming army camp could be buried.
Seeing this scene, Liu Xingming gasped.
It was so dangerous, it was really dangerous just now.
The Ming army's camp site has been selected very carefully and I never thought that this would still happen.
It seems that camping in this desert is not absolutely safe even if you set up a camp by the lake. It is best to choose a place that is leeing. In this way, even if a sandstorm occurs, it will not be buried overnight.
Fortunately, the most terrifying thing happened without any use, but the Ming army really had to learn from it.
Otherwise, it may really lead to a disaster.
Liu Xingming is a very realistic person. He can always draw enough experience from daily mistakes, otherwise he would not have grown so quickly.
Liu Xingming immediately ordered the soldiers to eat some naan, drink water again, then fill the water bag, and then collect the tent and set off again.
The Ming army's marching was very regular and showed a clear straight line.
Just like the caravan walking in the desert.
The reason why it does not marching side by side on a large scale is that it is easy to cause sand piles to collapse.
The Ming army had a total of thousands of people, and it was not impossible to crush the sand pile.
"Huh, try to get faster. I want to arrive at the Bukhara capital within ten days."
Without further ado, Liu Xingming doesn't want to procrastinate too much in such matters.
Arriving in Bukhara earlier means that it is one step closer to the Safi Empire.
If you want to start war against the Ottoman Empire in the 19th year of Yongli, you must not delay it.
Sengge racked his brains and finally contacted the Sultan's close servant.
He gritted his teeth and gave a generous gift, which made the close servant satisfied.
It is said that this close servant has an extremely important position in the mind of His Majesty Sultan, and His Majesty Sultan will definitely listen to what he says.
Therefore, Sengge hopes to encourage His Majesty the Sultan to start a war with the Ming Dynasty as much as possible through this close servant.
If the same words are spoken from different people, the effect will be completely different.
After Sengge gave the nearby servant a reason, he then looked forward to His Majesty the Sultan to make up his mind.
The Sultan's decision directly determines whether Sengge can succeed in revenge.
Once the Sultan ordered a march to the east, Sengge would gather together and gather the defeated troops as soon as possible and cooperate with the Ottoman army to capture the river.
There are two powerful Khanate countries in the Hezhong region, one is Bukhara and the other is Kazakhstan.
These two Khanates not only have a certain combat power, but also have a large number of cattle and sheep.
This determines that they have some consumption power.
In order to further attack the Western Regions and confront the Ming army, the Hezhong region must be taken down no matter what.
Therefore, when Sengge made a statement to the close attendant, he also emphasized the importance of the river.
As long as the river is taken, the success of the Ottoman Empire's Eastern Expedition will increase greatly.
Sengge can't wait to kill back and take revenge. As long as he can defeat the Ming army, Sengge will become the pride of Junggar.
"Khan, someone has come from the palace."
Just as Sengge looked at the sea, his confidant suddenly appeared beside him and reported the report.
"Um?"
Sengge was shocked.
So fast?
It seems that his money has not been spent in vain, and this close servant is indeed very energetic.
"Let's go and meet me."
Sengge couldn't wait to walk towards the Liushui Garden
Izhanma sat under the grape trellis in the flowing garden, eating the fruits and melons bit by bit.
There are also hot teas that are said to be transported from the far east.
Izhanma tasted it and it tasted really good.
As His Majesty the Sultan's most trusted servant, Izhanma was the object of favor among all officials in the dynasty.
This naturally attracted the attention of Sengge.
Sengge immediately contacted Izhanma through relationships and expressed his willingness to offer a heavy gift.
Izhanma was originally very greedy for money, so he naturally accepted it all.
Youdao means taking money and doing things for others.
Izhanma is still very authentic in this regard, and immediately spoke good things about Sengge next to the Sultan.
Originally, the Sultan did not have much good impression of this Sengge, but after Izhanma said this, he instantly felt a lot of favor.
The situation of Izhanma construction was almost done, so he immediately proposed the Eastern Expedition.
His tongue is brilliant in the lotus and expresses the benefits of the Eastern Expedition.
In the description of Izhanma, the distant Eastern Ming Empire was a country full of gold.
You can pick up gold on the ground, which makes Sultan very envious.
He is a man who loves money and believes in Izhanma's words.
