Battle of the Third Reich

The scorching sun and the Sahara Gobi were mercilessly scorched by the scorching sun. The gravel and sand were roasted hot. The hot air on the ground even distorted the light, reflecting a shining phantom in people's eyes.

Under a lonely hill, Julian and his Moroccan guide hide in the shadow of the rock, discussing the next step.

When the cavalry squad appeared, they knew they should be saved. Although they could not clearly see the identity of the latecomers, this kind of direct attack was obvious, and it was obviously not inferior to the robbers who chased themselves. Grudge. However, Julian did not slow down the horse speed and the latter round, but fast horse and whip more hard.

Who knows if there is another group of robbers coming from behind. Black eating is very common in the Sahara area. Anyway, before confirming that they are safe, they will never stop Malay.

As a result, the three men ran out of almost ten kilometers in one breath. They found a shady place to stop and found that the horses could not support it.

Now, besides the four horses and some debris in the saddle bag, all the three people have lost all their luggage and supplies. On this deserted Gobi, let alone a hurry, even survival problems have occurred.

They left only three water bags of fresh water, which was still filled by the industrious Baseimu when he rested at the Loire Springs. This fresh water was only enough for them to support them for two days. The problem is that they also carry four horses. These strong animals must drink a lot of fresh water every day.

Horses are different from camels. The daily water consumption is several times that of the latter. In ancient times, cavalry, with its powerful maneuverability, could be mobilized to the place where the most use of force was needed in the shortest time. The most effective tool. Therefore, the roads in the desert are mostly radiated around the water source. Some important water sources will also be assigned heavy guards, because controlling the water source in this place is more effective than controlling the road itself.

Before the advent of mechanical vehicles, water sources have been a key factor restricting the scale of trade in desert areas. So every time a new water source is discovered in the past, the finder will try his best to keep it secret, because this is equivalent to discovering a road of wealth covered with gold. I don’t know how many businessmen will get this information at all costs.

At this time, Abdul’s opinion was to return to Loire Spring as soon as possible. If you are lucky, you can also find some lost luggage items. Those desert robbers like valuable valuables, not very much Will be interested in their pile of bulky and cheap travel supplies.

However, the two camels should not be able to survive. The robbers may still take away some food, but these losses can currently be tolerated. Now that the dates are in the mature season, they will not face the crisis of starvation.

Another important issue is that they did not bring out any extra clothing except for the set of clothes that they wore during the daytime travel. This coat alone cannot withstand the cold night in the desert. The temperature difference between day and night Even as high as more than forty degrees, the scorching heat during the day turns into biting cold at night. In some seasons, the temperature of the Gobi night can even drop to minus one degree.

Abdullah specifically stated that no matter whether they can find their luggage or not, they should return to Loire Springs. The horses consume a lot, and they must replenish the water and physical strength they lost before. If they lose their mounts, they cannot walk out alive. This Gobi.

Julian was a bit depressed. He knew Abdullah’s opinion was correct. In such a harsh environment, he must listen to these professionals even more. He has an important mission. In a sense, he 'S life no longer belongs to him personally, in order to complete the task, he must find ways to save his life.

What frustrated him was that this journey clearly could not continue, he could not reach the original joint location within the scheduled time, which might have some impact on the superior's plan. He could not tolerate that he had failed the first time he performed the task, simply because he encountered a group of desert bandits.

What the French did not expect was that Abdul’s words gave him hope again, and the Moroccans told him that they did not actually turn around and if they lost food and luggage, they could rush to the nearest village and town. Almost a day away from Loire Springs, a bite should be able to persevere.

As long as there is no accident, they can repurchase a batch of supplies when they return to town. If they do their best to rush on the road, they should be able to reach their destination within the originally scheduled time.

Abdul’s words were like a stimulant, and Julian’s depressed mood was revived again. The French now felt that he could not stay in this place for even a minute. He urged the two guides and apprentices to get on the road immediately. , Return to Loire Springs as soon as possible, and then rest well. As a result, the Moroccan dragged on for almost half an hour, and waited for the horse to recover some strength before embarking on the return journey.

They followed the traces of their escape and went back to the **** battlefield quickly. The weapons, ammunition and personal belongings of the robbers were taken away, leaving only the thieves and the dead horses' corpses Yokohama on the Gobi Desert to be exposed to the hot sun. Only a few tens of minutes later, some corpses have appeared on the surface of the corpse, and the color has become quite appetizing.

"The situation here is a bit weird. The subsequent people are probably not robbers. Although these people were searched, their clothes and boots are still there, and the horses on the horses have not been stripped. This is definitely not a desert gang. Style. More like "Abdul turned around and looked at Julian. "It's more like the style of a colonial army."

"You mean those people are the army?" Julian asked in surprise.

"I've seen similar scenes before. The army doesn't need these inconspicuous loot. Sometimes they don't deliberately bury the robber's body, but just throw it on the Gobi like this and let them rot into a pile of bones. In this way Intimidating other desert robbers, to be honest, sometimes it works, because if you expose the corpses to the wilderness, these people’s souls will not be able to ascend to heaven." Abdul said with a frown, obviously he did something about the army. opinion.

Julian began to think that this was a bit excessive, which was really not like what a military of a civilized country would do, but then he thought, what does this have to do with him, these robbers lying on the ground originally wanted to To kill his own, and these people must have been already covered with the blood of innocent people, he should not give this person a little sympathy, in his view, this treatment method is very suitable, this group of **** The villain should be so rotten on the ground.

And the question now is not about these dead bodies, but those who are alive. Since the bandits have all been eliminated, where are those troops now?

"Will they also go to Loire Springs? From the map, there is only this large water source in the surrounding area. Don't forget that their horses are in urgent need of drinking water."

"Mr. Julian, your idea is correct. From the footprints, they are heading to Loire Springs." Abdul looked down at the marks left by the cavalry on the ground.

"What should I do." Julian asked with a stiff expression.

"It should be the Border Patrol. They rarely go deep here. Perhaps their original goal was this group of robbers. They tracked all the way here, and it happened to save our lives. It seems that there are at least thirty people in the footprints. It's a big army." Abdul untied the hood covering his mouth and nose, tied a water bag from the saddle, and raised his head to take a small sip.

"It’s no problem if it’s an army. We are law-abiding travelers and have been attacked by robbers. I try to see if I can convince them to return the luggage we put in the Loire camp. The patrols are mostly black and The Papars are basically French officers. If you are willing to negotiate with Mr. Julian, then there will be no problem." Abdul passed the water bag to Bassem.

"I don't want to show my head for the time being, Abdul, I can't appear in front of them, so everything depends on you. Abdul, if things are resolved smoothly, then when I reach the destination, I will be in the original In terms of remuneration, I will give you another 50% as a reward." Julian finished, and also reached out and pressed the shoulder bag behind the waist.

"I understand, Mr. Julian, anyone may be in trouble this year, and I can understand. Since you are so generous, then I would like to thank you in advance. You can go to the foot of the mountain over there to wait, me and After the other party negotiates, no matter whether it succeeds or not, they will come back to you. If it is not possible, don’t we have a backup plan before?” Abdul replied with a smile.

"Then do as you say, I will wait for you at the foot of the mountain, and may God bless you." Julian slightly jawed his head.

"Thank you, Mr. Julian. May God grant you peace. Waiting for us, everything will go smoothly." Abdul leaned slightly, and then drove the mount towards the Loire Springs.
