Chapter 913 Desperate Plateau (1)

Cross the Qilian Mountains from the Hexi Corridor and enter the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

The terrain of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is steep and changeable, with dense mountains and rivers, and complex terrain. Coupled with the altitude, the air in the plateau area is thinner and the oxygen content is lower than that in the plains, making it difficult for many people to adapt for a while. For those who quickly enter the plateau area

In other words, we must face many unexpected challenges.

Wudang Feijun rested briefly in a mountain forest.

Wang Ping climbed up a hill and looked into the distance, his face solemn.

Without Dang Feijun, he constantly encountered troubles and got into trouble.

After repelling the pursuit of the Hexi Qiang warriors at the foot of the mountain ridge and crossing the Qilian Mountains, I thought I could breathe a sigh of relief, but this was not the case. I don’t know whether it was because the Liangzhou Army’s pursuit order was firm enough, or because Fei Jun was on the way.

The conflict killed and injured a large number of Qiang people, which completely angered the Qiang people. The Hexi Qiang warriors did not stop their pursuit, but pursued them like gangrene on their bones.

The Qiang people are good at fighting in mountains and are more familiar with the nearby terrain. They are lightly armed and move quickly, making it difficult for flying troops to escape.

If you can't escape, you can only speed up and escape.

The Wudang Feijun fought in the mountains and fields for several days. In addition, more and more wounded troops were injured in the continuous fighting. They had to arrange for more men to carry the injured robes forward. The Feijun's physical strength was greatly exhausted. The dry food carried by the Feijun had already been consumed.

They were completely exhausted, so the soldiers could only try their best to find food from the mountains as much as possible between marches or battles. The Feijun were basically good hunters, but no matter how good the hunter was, they needed enough time, and the pursuers would obviously not let the Feijun

It's a comfortable life, and it's relatively difficult to find food in the alpine area on the mountain top.

Recently, Wudang Feijun has been unable to obtain sufficient food supplies.

With limited food, priority must be given to the wounded and Jammu and others.

Many times, the flying army could only fight, run, or carry the wounded on their backs while hungry. Fortunately, the flying army soldiers were used to hard work. Although the situation was difficult and hungry, the soldiers were able to enjoy the hardships. Occasionally, the flying army soldiers were able to enjoy the hardships.

You can hear these barbarians swearing in unappreciative vulgarities, cursing the Qiang people for driving them away even if they don't have enough time to find food, and then scolding their mothers in anger, followed by an inexplicable burst of laughter.

There is a shortage of food. If everyone eats it, we can overcome it for the time being.

What's even more troublesome is that the medicine has also run out.

After days of fighting and forced marches, half of the flying army was injured, including dozens of seriously injured people. Although the Yi people generally know how to search for medicinal herbs from the mountains, firstly, they may not be able to find the herbs they need in a hurry, and secondly, even if they can find the needed herbs in time,

The efficacy of medicinal herbs is also difficult to compare with the patent medicines prepared by Dr. Zhulu.

You must know that the leader of the doctors in Zhulu is a genuine master pharmacist.

The wound medicine that Zhang Zhongjing took the lead in formulating is probably not even comparable to that in the world.

The condition of the Feijun is very bad.

The Qiang people were in hot pursuit, and the lack of food and medicine was not enough to overwhelm this battle-hardened team. After all, they were a special unit. What really caused the biggest trouble to the flying army was the pervasive altitude sickness.

Although the troops struggled in the mountains for several days, they entered the plateau too quickly.

Rapidly entering a plateau at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, resulting in various discomforts after being exposed to a low-pressure and hypoxic environment, is a common disease unique to plateau areas. The vast majority of people in the team experienced varying degrees of headaches, fatigue, insomnia, and difficulty breathing.

and other symptoms. Under normal circumstances, there should be symptoms of loss of appetite, but the flying army has been short of food recently, and food is given priority to the wounded, so no one cares about the loss of appetite.

Altitude sickness does not depend on personal will. As strong as a flying army, it is still too much to take. Headaches, palpitations, chest tightness, shortness of breath, nausea, and even vomiting have tortured this team into unspeakable suffering. Starting from the day before yesterday, the number of people suffering from altitude sickness is getting worse and worse.

Many soldiers suffered from symptoms of severe altitude sickness. The laughter and curses in the team were reduced, replaced by long silences, and occasional retching and heavy breathing.

Many people can no longer rely on their own strength to march continuously.

Wang Ping had to give an order to slow down the march.

The only good thing is that the pursuers seemed to have suffered from altitude sickness and slowed down.

With the support of two flying soldiers, Jia Mu climbed up the hill with difficulty.

Although the Six Arts of the Gentleman include "shooting" and "control", most scholars of this era can draw swords and dance, and can burst out with fighting power in times of crisis. However, scholars are still scholars after all, and they lack enough hardships and hardships to perform under extreme conditions.

Often not as good as the soldiers at the bottom.

That's what Jammu is like.

Compared with a few days ago, Jamu is in a very embarrassed state now.

His face turned black, his lips were purple, his eyes had lost their energy, and there were obvious traces of vomit on his chest and clothes. His whole body was haggard. The condition of Jia Mu's younger brothers and sisters was not much better. If Fei Jun hadn't supported him all the way, they would have arrived.

Later, they even took turns carrying them forward. It was impossible for the Jia brothers and sisters to come here.

"Suzhi, what are you getting up for?"

Seeing Jia Mu, who was supposed to be lying down, coming over, Wang Ping was shocked and rushed to greet him.

"This is not the time to rest."

Jia Mu smiled bitterly, opened his mouth to take a few breaths, and continued: "In the current situation, what good strategy does the general have?"

"No, just take it one step at a time." Wang Pingran said that he had no choice, but his expression remained calm, and there was a bit of coldness in the depths of his eyes. He said in a deep voice: "It's difficult for us, and it's difficult for us to pursue the troops. It all depends on who can persevere better.

Jiu. At this point, what we are competing for is endurance and willpower. Since we are competing against these two, there is no reason why we should lose."

This statement seems a bit confusing and confident.

Why do you think you won't lose if you fight with endurance and willpower?

But Jamu had no intention of questioning these words.

After getting along with each other these days, he has already seen clearly that Wang Ping is young and mature. He doesn't speak much, but what he says is by no means without aim. Wang Ping is not the type who talks big words to boost his strength. The fact that he dares to say this shows that Fei Jun

His endurance and will can stand the test.

No one knows this army better than Wang Ping.

This is indeed the case.

The Fei army was composed of barbarians and relied on hunting to make a living.

Compared with the Han people who are engaged in farming, the harvest of the barbarians in the mountains is not stable, and there is often a shortage of food. In order to obtain food, the barbarians often take huge risks and travel long distances to challenge powerful beasts. This kind of work requires a lot of

Not only force and courage are required, but also a strong will to persevere and the endurance to fight continuously or move when necessary.

Even if the Feijun currently lacks food and medicine and is pursued by enemies several times his own number, Wang Ping has never worried that the Feijun will collapse first. Altitude sickness was ignored by him because it had the same impact on both the enemy and ourselves, not

Only Feijun needs to face it.

Being able to endure hardships and stand hard work is not a talent of the flying army, but it is the instinct of the mountain people.

This force was formed and trained by him personally, and they have experienced so many hard battles together. Wang Ping firmly believes that no matter what the circumstances, the soldiers of the Fei Army will fight with him until the end, until the last moment of their lives.

"Feijun is indeed very strong, but something is wrong." Jia Mu said.

"What?" Wang Ping's eyes narrowed.

He knew that although Jia Mu lacked experience in accompanying the army, his judgment of the situation was very accurate, and at least he was much better than him.

"What we encountered was altitude sickness. The Qiang people mostly live in high mountainous areas and are considered locals. The impact of altitude sickness on the Qiang people is probably less severe than ours. Maybe they are not affected at all." Jia Mu gasped.

Wang Ping hesitated: "Is there such a thing?"

"Yes." Jia Mu said with a bitter smile: "We only have half a life left, why don't the Qiang people catch up and fight to the death?"
