Every trip can enhance your unique feeling of life. This now makes Cao Zhang feel a vivid experience, which is very different from the desert yellow sand in the Western Regions, the oasis nectar, the endless desolate Gobi on the plateau, the towering snow mountains, the water and sky connection, the spectacular and moving salt lake. These magical natures all give this first hiker in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period with a different sense.

What moved Cao Zhang even more was that it was so difficult that he could not even boil water. The plateau, which had a headache every day, still lived in humans, and there were quite a few.

This is another result of the three-year exploration of the Storm Legion. The advance team discovered dozens of ancient Qiang tribes that migrated near the Yarlung Zangbo River as early as the Xia and Shang dynasties, living near the Yarlung Zangbo River and the Lhasa River, and established diplomatic and trade relations with the six yak Yalong tribe, the most powerful local power, and exchanged iron tools, cotton cloth, sugar and other materials for the barley they planted and military support.

Later generations even went to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and faced the problem of deterioration in oxygen-deficient environments, not to mention people. Even in Liangzhou, the well-trained Guanxi man became Daiyu when he went to the plateau. After a little intense exercise, he would pant and turn red. In addition, every time he reached the height, he would repair the camp for a few days and arrive at the Yalong Valley in Shannan District. There was almost no food left in a month.

Here, Cao Zhang and Wei Yan, who was actually leading the army, were able to supplement a large number of yak jerky, cheese, barley flour, and a new delicacy that became popular because Wang Hou initiated the trade.

Butter Milk Tea!

In the plateau area, the temperature difference between day and night is extremely large. It is a pleasant enjoyment to wake up in the early morning and drink a bowl of butter tea with extremely high calories and tea to relieve greasiness.

At this time, the leaders of the Yalong tribe had established the hereditary system of slave tribe chiefs. Contemporary Zanpu attached great importance to the Wei Kingdom, a civilized country from Qinghai. In addition to supplementing food here, Zanpu even recruited more than 3,000 powerful vassal soldiers for the Wei army. As a servant unit, he followed the footsteps of the Storm Legion eastward. In terms of strength, Cao Zhang strengthened a lot.

However, although this trip to the plateau was beautiful, spectacular and novel, after replenishing supplies and bribery, he still couldn't wait to march south. After all, the plateau was really beautiful and dangerous. The non-combat troops reduction in this long-distance marching alone reached 400 to 500. Cao Zhang still missed the Central Plains, which were less than one thousand meters above sea level, and the yellow sand in the Western Regions.

This was really the last journey. I walked south along the Dadu River, which was wiped out by Shi Dakai, and experienced the hardships of climbing snow-capped mountains and crossing the grasslands. After 58 days, the Storm Legion, which was more than 9,000, finally arrived safely in the Sichuan Basin, Hanjia County of Shu Han, and Luding, a famous future generations!

"Ho huh huh!!!"

This military operation is simply a feat. Even in history, such a large-scale army crossed the plateau and the uninhabited lands, it did not appear until the Qing Dynasty. The prosperous Tang Dynasty was only in Qinghai, and the Western Regions confronted the Tubo Empire. The Tang army had never really stepped on the snowy plateau. Finally, they came down from this endless mountain and looked east. Although the weather was the usual rainy and rainy country in the country of Tianfu, the endless plain still made every soldier excited.

Even Cao Zhang himself was like a madman, excitedly pulling out the short musket on his waist and fired two shots into the sky.

Unfortunately, this is a large army after all, and the main purpose of carrying out military missions is its main purpose. As the soldiers rushing down the mountain cheers, waves of moving snare drums suddenly sounded loudly. After all, after a long-term training, the discipline that was almost engraved in the bones made even the jubilant Storm Corps unable to resist a stagger. Then, under the orders of their respective officers, they quickly reorganized into a formation.

After the three-way drum, a neat and majestic mixed infantry and cavalry army formation appeared on the ground at once. Seeing these soldiers with straight faces and sternly standing in the square formation, even Cao Zhang, who had been leading troops for a long time, could not help but stare at this scene with surprise.

Now he has many troops under his command. In order to rule the vast territory of the old guardian Zhang He, the cavalry of the old guardian under Wang Shuang, last year Cao Zhang still dispatched elite and strong men from the migrant Wancheng immigrants and the Hu tribes of the Western Regions, and formed an Anxi Army of up to 20,000 people. His combat effectiveness is particularly strong, but the corps under Wang Hou of Zhaobi still lacked a lot of record and energy.

I can't help but call me to destroy Shu. When the war to destroy Shu is over, the mission of this Storm Legion will be completed. When the time comes, I will turn them to the Western Regions, which will be considered a waste of time!

It's really a matter of being close to the pig, and the one who's close to the mo. After hanging with Wang Hou, the tyrant businessman, for a long time, Master Cao San also became treacherous, pinching his chin to watch the army. The Protector of the Western Regions was thinking in a slight way.

He had no idea that his army was targeted by an unscrupulous leader. Wei Yan, who had been supervising the rear army, rode a tall Dayuan horse. Under dozens of guard cavalry escorts, he rode to the forefront of the army with extraordinary majesty.

Even though he had been in Liaodong for so many years, he had not changed at all. At this time, he was still as rigid as iron, patrolling his troops with sharp eyes. However, compared to the talented and talented son of the army when he first came to Liaodong, he had become a qualified general over the years, and his eyes were sharply patrolling his subordinates. Although his iron face remained unchanged, Wei Yan's voice became overflowing, and he shouted loudly with an inspiration.

"Brothers, behind you are a hundred thousand mountains! Even in the tyrannical Qin era, the Qin army swept across the six kingdoms had never conquered this place. You rely on your feet, braved the cold and mountain diseases, and walked over. Each of you is good. Even if Daxingtai is here, you will definitely be proud of you!"

Wei Yan actually praised people. This words were even more strange than the blooming of iron trees. Hearing the soldiers in front of him, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock and whispered. Sometimes, the language must be even more inspiring than the rewards of gold and silver. Especially when he said it from Wei Yan, who rarely praised people, it made the army's army more happy.

"But now is not the time to celebrate. I and my brothers will suffer for three years on this deserted and silent plateau. It is not for the cold morning, afternoon, summer weather, to eat this yak dried barley noodles! The Sichuan thief country is in the north, waiting for us to conquer!"

"So, first, I will entrust this pride in my heart, follow me to break Shu in one fell swoop! When the city of Chengdu falls, I will celebrate with all my brothers and drink with you again and again. At that time, I will personally drink and talk to my brothers, and never return without getting drunk!"

The general is the soul of the soldier, and this is true! With Wei Yan's roar, the entire Storm Legion boiled like a fire cooking oil. Countless soldiers excitedly smashed the heavy spear pole in their hands to the ground, roaring from the bottom of their hearts. The morale of the army had been mobilized to the limit. Looking at his army, Wei Yan nodded with satisfaction, and then finally raised the flag and roared angrily.

"Destroy Shu and march!!!"

The crackling sound of snare drums once again rose up, and the neat troops were like an iron stream, heading straight for the northeast with murderous intent!

Chengdu Prefecture!
