Chapter 1643 Rise (5)

In the dark night, the cool night wind brought coolness and comforted the hearts of the soldiers. Nearly [-] spearmen lost their lives in the fierce battle in the evening. This heavy price made it difficult for Zhao Hu to sleep.

Zhao Hu sat up and picked up a thick wooden branch from the side and threw it into the bonfire in front of him. Looking at the sparks flying in front of him, Zhao Hu felt that he had to consider the cost of sending troops this time.

"My lord, what do you think this is?"

Hearing Mengda's voice not far away, Zhao Hu saw the tall figure of the hunter leader Mengda walking from the east side of the camp, holding up a piece of yellow sheepskin in his excited hands and wearing a suit full of exotic colors. The Kazakh armor made the nearby soldiers stare enviously.

As the chief hero of this battle, Munda insisted on requesting a piece of Kazakh armor from his lord as the glory passed down from generation to generation by his family, so as to show his descendants how brave their ancestor was. It was difficult for Zhao Hu to refuse the request. Unexpectedly, just as he agreed, this guy put on his armor to show off.

"What are you doing, you won't be afraid of being shot by sentries when you go out for a stroll at night, when your descendants know that their brave ancestors died at the hands of their own people, your good wishes will be in vain. "

Zhao Hu looked at the Kazakh armor on Mengda's body angrily, and felt awkward in his heart. This battle caused Zhao Hu's falcon troop to lose nearly [-] spearmen. He has a long command knife, but thinking about the compensation of nearly three hundred soldiers makes Zhao Hu a headache. Now that Mengda is still wearing this armor to stimulate himself, how can he not make Zhao Hu angry.

"Hehe, we found this when we searched the body of the Kazakh commander just now. I was afraid it was something important, so I sent it to your lord immediately before I could change my clothes."

Seeing his lord's slightly angry face, Mengda scratched his head with his hands in embarrassment, and handed the yellowed sheepskin to Zhao Hu who was sitting by the campfire resting in embarrassment.

"what is this?"

Zhao Hu took the sheepskin scroll from Munda suspiciously, and slowly spread it under the campfire with his curious hands. Through the bright yellow light of the campfire, it can be seen that it is a very old sheepskin scroll, with light blue and red paint on it. , and gray and black outline lines and patterns, just like a map of mountains and rivers.

The sheep leather rolled surface has yellow spots due to too long time or exposure to moisture, exuding a sour musty smell, and even a unique Kazakh sheep meal smell. It seems that Munda said it was the Kazakh conductor. It's not nonsense that the official's personal collection is.

"Judging from the geographical marks on it, this is a map of Sartor County we are about to go to. These Kazakhs should have snatched it from a nobleman when they plundered Sartor County. This thing Useful for the Kazakhs who are not familiar with the terrain, but not so much for us."

After carefully identifying the map on the sheepskin scroll, Zhao Hu's originally happy face showed a slight disappointment. Zhao Hu thought that Munda had discovered something remarkable, but he didn't expect that it was just a Sartre who had been a little longer. Duo map, immediately lost interest, and was about to roll up the spread sheepskin map with his hand, but was stopped by Munda next to him with his hand.

"My lord, look at these two places. There are special marks on the mountains in the north of the Sartor map, and the Sodalay hills where we are now. Although we don't know what these represent, they can be used by the Kazakh commanders. Personal collection, it should be a very important thing!"

Mengda still didn't give up, and hastily stretched out his fingers and tapped heavily on the two small black triangles at the north mountain corner and the south bottom corner of the map. Following Mengda's fingers, Zhao Hu indeed saw two tiny black triangles. The fork was hidden in the dark lines of the map. If Munda hadn't pointed it out, it wouldn't be easy to see it under the dark campfire.

"Yes, you did a good job. If I'm not mistaken, this is a Kazakh treasure map!"

Seeing the black cross on Mengda's finger, Zhao Hu, who had been disappointed just now, became excited, and his eyes were shining when he looked at the black cross, as if he suddenly discovered that this yellowed parchment scroll had bloomed beautiful flowers, and his mouth was full of tears. He praised Munda repeatedly, but Munda who praised him was inexplicable.

"Treasure map? No way, we have carefully searched the corpses of those Kazakhs. They are as poor as rats. They have almost nothing on them except a small amount of dried marching meat, let alone anything valuable. Look Come on, my lord is poor and crazy, and I can rely on money for everything!"

Mengda looked at the excited Zhao Hu with disbelief, and was full of contempt for his lord's judgment. Mengda knew that there were only two things worth paying attention to in his lord's poor head, one was money, and the other One thing is money.

"You don't believe it?" Zhao Hu looked at Ji Mengda's contemptuous face, knowing what his subordinate was thinking, his face turned red, and his voice immediately became a little higher, his fingers were drawn back and forth on the map "from From the north to the south, this Kazakh cavalry almost traversed the entire Roman Empire, and five or six counties were looted.

However, we did not find the looted property on these Kazakhs. Could it be that all these valuables were flying away? Now it seems that these properties should be buried in these two areas by the Kazakhs. When the war is over, they can Send caravans to transport these looted things out of the country in a grandiose manner without knowing it! "

Mengda listened to Zhao Hu's analysis, the contempt on his face gradually receded, and instead he kept nodding along with Zhao Hu's analysis: "Please rest assured, my lord, this place is in the Suo Dalai hills. Not very far away, I immediately led a thousand soldiers to dig out all the buried things."

In the end, Mengda couldn't hold back his excitement anymore and stood up from the ground, took the yellowed parchment from Zhao Hu's hand, turned and disappeared into the shadow of the camp.

Zhao Hu's thesis was confirmed in the early morning. Meng Da, who led the soldiers to dig the treasure site, brought back more than a dozen items wrapped in white cloth in a flat carriage in the morning fog. As usual, Zhao Hu walked over and patted the things wrapped in white cloth on the flatbed carriage with his hands, and heard the crisp sound of metal colliding with each other from inside.

"I'm not wrong, how are things?"

Hearing Zhao Hu's question, Mengda scratched his head with a sneer, winked fiercely at the things covered by the white cloth on the flatbed carriage, and said in a low voice: "My lord, they are definitely good things, I didn't expect All the treasures collected by the Kazakhs have fallen into our hands!"

Zhao Hu looked at Mengda with a smirk on his face, walked to the side of the carriage and casually opened a corner, golden light shone through, and gold items inlaid with various gemstones were exposed from under the white cloth, gold bottles, gold wrists , piles of gold utensils, it seems that the Kazakhs have a special liking for gold, Zhao Hu even saw a marquis-level round gemstone crown inlaid with a big ruby ​​like a thumb in the middle.

"Hey, I'm afraid there are at least a million gold Lukes here. Those big bosses in the north are also suffering from bad luck. It is estimated that even the gold teeth inlaid in their mouths have been knocked off by the Kazakhs."

The golden light on the carriage stimulated Zhao Hu's heart to beat suddenly, especially the crown inlaid with huge gemstones made Zhao Hu's heart skip a beat. This crown should belong to an important member of the northern family, but it's a pity In the eyes of the Kazakhs, these exquisite works of art are just ordinary gold ornaments, which will be melted into pieces of gold coins after they are shipped back to Kazakhstan.

"My lord, besides the Suodalai hills, there is also a mark on the map near the iron tower fortress in the middle. We should get there as quickly as possible, otherwise the Kazakhs will find out that the treasure map of their army has been left behind." In the hands of our Roman Empire, we will definitely take out the treasure in advance."

Meng Da looked at Zhao Hu's eyes dazzled by the gold, and a few shining stars almost flew out of them, and the saliva almost flowed out from his open mouth, looking shocked, kindly reminded.

"Yes, you are so right"

Hearing Mengda's reminder, Zhao Hu withdrew his greedy gaze from the pile of gold on the carriage, turned around and praised Mengda: "This matter cannot be delayed, it must be done immediately, we must gather the whole army immediately , Go north to the iron tower with all your strength, and must rush to the treasure location before the Kazakhs react!"

Seeing Zhao Hu's fat face glowing with excitement, Mengda had no choice but to interrupt his lord's beautiful fantasies: "However, it takes at least one day to ride a horse from the Suodalai Hills across the entire Sartor County. If this team The Kazakhs are in contact with their large forces every day, so the Kazakhs who have not received the news today will realize that their treasure location has been exposed, and they will definitely send people to move all the things out soon. It is almost impossible to time travel across the whole of Satdor, and there is a high probability of encountering Kazakhs there."

Hearing Mengda's question, Zhao Hu looked embarrassed, lowered his head and pondered for a while, then waved his hands and said, "This is not a problem, in my eyes, nothing is impossible, blow the assembly call, I have an order to announce! "

Under Mengda's puzzled eyes, Zhao Hu had already turned around and issued an order to the trumpeter behind him.

"Wow!"

The assembled trombone sounded dull and long, reverberating in the deep forest where the morning mist still floated in the Sodalay hills. The originally quiet camp suddenly became noisy. No one would have thought that there would be an urgent assembly so early. Run out of the tent.
