    Wen Da arranged to camp and dig wells.  If the wooden fence was not enough, the ruins of the ancient city wall were used as the basis, and the damaged areas were blocked up with wooden fences or carriages brought with them, and a simple camp was built, and the soldiers pitched tents on the spot.

    But the biggest problem is difficult to solve - water.

    After digging in several places, there was not a drop of water. These people were desperate and had to use the fresh water they brought with them. It had frozen into ice lumps. After hearing the order, it was quickly melted to cook, drink and livestock. Each officer and soldier was only given half a bowl of drinking water.  .  They were so thirsty that their bodies were smoldering. They drank half a bowl of water in one gulp, which was enough to moisten their throats.

    Needless to say, there was no need to talk about dinner. Although they were so hungry that their hearts were pressed against their backs and there was no water, the soldiers barely ate some dry food. They were so thirsty that they could not sleep at all.

    In the large tent of the Chinese army, several envoys were discussing matters, mainly the issue of water.  Ha San was also there, and he told everyone that this situation would not happen less often in the future, and they should reserve more ice cubes.  At this time Xizi came over, whispered a few words in Li Da's ear, and then stood beside him.

    Everyone saw that Li Da's face turned ugly. He looked around at everyone and said, "Follow me."

    Everyone didn¡¯t know what happened, so they followed him to the temporary stable outside the tent.  This is a special stable for the two BMWs and the envoy's carriage horse. They are never mixed with other horses. This is the main reason why they can escape the plague.

    As soon as they came over, the six soldiers knelt down and kowtowed, trembling and not daring to look up.  Chen Lu understood that something happened to the two BMWs.

    Under the light of torches, everyone saw that Li Da's two usual horses were well tied there, but the two BMWs were nowhere to be seen.  The number of horses here is pretty good, or four. If you don't look closely, you won't take it seriously, but in fact, they have been lost.

    Everyone was surprised, this was a bit unbelievable.

    Before Li Da could ask questions, one of the soldiers spoke: "The adults are extraordinary, and the younger ones don't dare to lie. I swear to God, the six of us have never left half a step away. We were replaced for some reason. The younger ones feel like they are in a dream."  .¡±

    Wenda came over, walked back and forth, and watched for a while. After hearing what the soldier said, he felt angry in his heart. He took a horse whip and without any explanation, he greeted these soldiers head-on.  Li Da didn't stop him and whipped the soldiers until they cried for their fathers and mothers.

    Li Xian persuaded Wenda to stop and asked the soldier: "When and where did you notice that this horse was different?"

    The soldier cried and said: "To tell you what, I found it when I was feeding them after I got here. Wan'er and Pili like to eat soybean food. They have to smell it first before eating. If they smell black bean food, they just take a bite.  I won¡¯t eat. Although the two horses are about the same height and color, they taste like food fed by starving ghosts. As soon as we put down the food, they gobble it up. We feel something is wrong, so we hold a torch nearby  One photo, it¡¯s not Wan¡¯er and Pili at all, I don¡¯t know which one is the one who killed us, sir.¡±

    After saying this, several people started crying again.

    Li Da felt anxious and stomped back to the camp. At this moment, there was a noise at the gate of the camp. Chen Lu asked Hasan to take a look.

    "Ha San looked from a distance and saw many torches gathered at the entrance of the camp.  He looked up into the sky and saw the stars were shining brightly, nothing out of the ordinary, and he felt relieved.  I saw soldiers running back and forth and asked one of them, "What are you doing? It's almost midnight and you're still not sleeping?"

    "Sir, someone is exchanging dry food for water."

    Hasan ignored him and walked over. He saw a few ragged villagers trading with the soldiers, including Hu Chunbaihu. He said hello to Hasan.  Hassan observed it and saw that there was nothing wrong with it, but he thought it was ridiculous.  It seems that the lack of food can be tolerated, but the lack of water is really difficult.

    The soldiers exchanged the frozen rice balls for water.  There were several villagers carrying a big bucket, and they gave a big bowl of water to a rice dumpling.  When Ha San looked, the water in the bucket was almost gone, and the soldiers were still squeezing in to change it.

    He saw a villager who was out of water and had rice balls in his bucket.  Maybe it was because I couldn't bear to part with such a good rice ball. Although there was no water, I spent a long time digging in my rags and dug out a few crumpled banknotes, which could be exchanged for a rice ball.

    The soldiers originally didn¡¯t want to sell them to him, but seeing how pitiful they were, they only accepted these three or four.  If there is water in others, change them. If there is no water, forget about it.

    Hasan said to the soldiers: "Ask them where they got the water, and you will be rewarded heavily."

    The soldiers came back after a while and said, "They just laughed and didn't tell, even if there was a big reward, they didn't tell."

    Ha San burst out laughing and said, "You idiot!" Then he shouted, "Okay, hold on, turn off the lights, there will be water tomorrow."

    ??????????????????????????????????????To deal with this shit, these two BMWs are the big deal.  I quickly returned to the big tent and gave a brief report.  Several people in the big tent were worrying about the BMW. After hearing what he said, they all nodded politely.

    Li Da said: "That's it. It's just two horses. It has nothing to do with the overall situation. It's the third watch. The old rule is to set off at the fifth watch and wait until you find the water source before cooking."

    Wen Da was about to go back, but before leaving, he said: "I lost the envoy's BMW. This subordinate has neglected his duty. Please punish me."

    Li Da sighed and said, "I do like famous horses, but this time is different. The Holy Emperor gave Wan'er the famous horse, which has a deep meaning. Countries in the Western Regions despise the Celestial Empire because they are rich in famous horses. We will take Wan'er with us all the way.  Come, let the countries in the Western Region see that we, too, have famous horses."

    Chen Lu suddenly realized.  The Emperor Shengming had long had the idea of ??opening a horse market.  But losing the BMW given by the emperor would be a capital crime, and it would be difficult for the envoy to remain calm.  Chen Lu couldn't help but look at Li Da with admiration.

    The next day, the cloud board rang when getting up. Chen Lu got up. Before he could wash up, the happy son came to announce that the Chinese envoy had invited him.

    Chen Lu saw him in a panic and his face was pale. He couldn't help but beat his heart and said, "Father-in-law, go back first. My old man will be here soon."

    After sorting things out hastily, we hurried to the meeting hall. Everyone was there, and a few people looked nervous.  Li Da motioned to Xizi and handed a round piece of paper to Chen Lu.  Chen Lu took it over and saw that it was a burning paper commonly used by Chinese people. It was a ghost coin and was burned to the dead.  He glanced at Li Da suspiciously.

    At this time, Ha San also saw it, his face suddenly turned pale, and he asked: "Mr. Ambassador, where are those pictures? Is he okay?"

    Li Da said: "Xizi, please tell me what General Wen said."

    Xizi said: "I heard that the general is arranging patients. Let me tell the two adults." He told the story of Night Lai.  Those who had drank water in the morning had bloated stomachs and were unconscious. A few soldiers who had not changed to water fainted when they saw that the treasures of the Celestial Dynasty had turned into these ghost coins in the morning.

    Chen Lu muttered in his heart that he didn't get any hints or dreams, so he didn't know what the reason was.
