Lu Xiaoning originally thought that it would be easy to spread the word in Khotan Town.
Like Baidu Earth, you can raise the lens to 500 kilometers or even 1,000 kilometers to directly see the blue star, then turn the blue star to switch to the desired location, and then lower the lens.
It only takes a few seconds to reach the opposite side of Blue Star, let alone Khotan.
However, when Lu Xiaoning violently zoomed in on the camera, he discovered that there were restrictions!
When the lens rises to about one hundred meters, it reaches its limit and can no longer rise.
No, what is going on? Lu Xiaoning was a little confused. The camera could only be raised to 100 meters?
Lu Xiaoning tried the translation distance again. There was also a limit, and it was also one hundred meters.
In the end, he found that he could only move the camera to any position on a spherical body with a radius of 100 meters with Lu Wen as the origin. This was not possible outside the sphere, which was out of range.
This is embarrassing, because you can’t see Khotan Town at all.
From a height of one hundred meters, you can only see the endless desert.
In order to make a comparison, Lu Xiaoning opened Baidu Earth in split screen.
First, I focused the camera on the northeastern part of the Pamir Plateau, where the Quy Nhon Army is located, and then raised the camera. I found that Hotan County, which is Khotan, can only be seen when the camera reaches 5,000 meters.
One hundred meters is too far away, a full fifty times difference.
Even now that we are in the middle, we are still separated by more than two hundred kilometers.
But according to the curvature of the earth, standing at a height of 100 meters can only see 36 kilometers away.
So you can't see the town of Khotan at all, you can only see the endless desert and Gobi.
Hey, wait, what is that? There seems to be something crawling at the end of your field of vision?
You can't see as far as a hundred kilometers, but you can see more than ten kilometers away. After all, you can zoom in.
When Lu Xiaoning held down the left button of the mouse to select the frame to enlarge the picture, the picture in the lens was enlarged step by step.
The resolution of his 32-inch monitor is not bad. Even if it is enlarged dozens or even hundreds of times, the picture is still very clear. The scene ten kilometers away seems to be as close as a hundred meters away.
Lu Xiaoning finally saw clearly that it was another cavalry unit.
Judging from the style of the armor, they should also be a Tibetan cavalry.
The number of people was not much different from before, also around thirty.
Moreover, the direction of movement of this Tubo cavalry was towards their side.
…
At this time, Lu and Wen were collecting weapons and armor from the Tibetan cavalry.
In addition to a dozen Turkic horses, the Tubo people also left behind thirty pairs of chainmails and nearly a hundred weapons this time, and the quality of these armors and weapons was not bad.
Since Princess Wencheng and Princess Jincheng married to Tubo successively, they brought advanced manufacturing technology to the Tubo people, which greatly improved the manufacturing level of weapons and armor of the Tubo people.
Therefore, these weapons and armor can be sold for a lot of money if sent to Khotan Town.
Although Lu Wen and the others were recruiting soldiers, what they captured on the battlefield also belonged to themselves.
There are rewards for winning battles, so being a soldier in the Tang Dynasty is a very popular profession. The risks are indeed high, but the income is also high. The income of ordinary eighth- and ninth-grade minor officials is not as good as recruiting soldiers.
Looking at the piles of armor and weapons, Pei Zhen and Du Yue both smiled.
While tying up the chainmail, Lu Wen asked Pei Zhen, "Old Pei, is your boy seventeen years old?"
"Well, he is seventeen years old this year and is an adult." Speaking of his son, Pei Zhen also looked proud, "I have been thinking about what kind of job he can find for the past few months."
Du Yue said: "What else are you looking for? Why don't you come to the Ninth Regiment to recruit soldiers?"
Pei Zhen fell silent, obviously not very interested in this suggestion.
"What nonsense are you talking about? As long as there is a good place to go, who would want to be a recruiter?" Lu Wen said something to Du Yue, then turned to Pei Zhen and said, "Let your boy go to Qiuci and donate money to Liuwai Jiujiu will do it first."
"That's a lot of money." Pei Zhen shook his head and said, "How can I get it?"
Lu Wen said: "Sell this batch of weapons and armor, and then we can make up for it."
"It's not enough. These weapons and armors can only be sold for a hundred thousand yuan at most. If you divide it among seventeen people, it's less than six thousand yuan. But donating a ninth-level official to the outside world will cost you at least twenty thousand yuan." Pei Zhen shook his head and added He whispered, "Unless these Turkic horses are also sold."
"The Turkic Horse probably won't work. In the end, we will have to sell it to Taipu Temple." Lu Wen shook his head, and then said, "You can't touch the shares of the other fourteen brothers, but I still have Du Yue's two shares, so you can just take them. Go, I still have some spare money, and I will give it to you later, which adds up to almost 20,000 yuan."
Du Yue opened his mouth when he heard this, but in the end he said nothing.
"How can that be done?" Pei Zhen said hurriedly, "Captain Lu, you have to stay and get married."
"What kind of marriage are you getting?" Lu Wen shook his head, "Those of us who are recruiting soldiers have today and no tomorrow, but any decent girl is willing to marry us? Besides, if you are too comfortable with a person, why are you getting married?"
"Boss, you never plan for yourself." Du Yue couldn't help but muttered, "You have made a lot of money as a recruiter for so many years, but you either helped one or helped another, and you didn't miss a single penny. What's the trouble for you?"
"Money is something you don't take with you in life or death. Just enough to spend is enough. Why save it?" Lu Wen shook his head and smiled.
"Of course the reason for saving money is to get married. It's not like you don't know, Lu Tou, that his sister Xiaoyi..." Du Yue was anxious.
"Can't you stop eating?" Lu Wen glared at Du Yue and threw him a piece of tsampa. "Hurry up and hurry up. Maybe the Tibetan pursuers will come over again. Then we will have to throw these away. What a pity." .”
As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of the Immortal Lord really sounded: "Lu Wen, you are right, there are another Tubo cavalry chasing after them, they are still about twenty miles away from here."
"Ah? Are there Tubo cavalry chasing after them again?" Du Yue and Pei Zhen suddenly looked bitter.
At this time, there are only three of them left, and no matter how much manpower or horsepower they have, how can they continue to fight?
"Thank you, Immortal Lord, for the warning." Lu Wen did not forget to cross his hands and salute to the sky, and said, "Lao Pei, Du Yue, the remaining dozen spears are not worth much, so there is no need to take them away, you hurry up Let me take off the round-necked robes of Xiao Yi and others and put them on a Tibetan soldier of similar stature, then cut off the spears and fix the bodies on the horse."
"Here." Du Yue and Pei Zhen didn't think much and immediately followed the instructions.
Soon, the fourteen corpses of Tibetan soldiers were put on round collar robes and fixed to the horses.
Lu Wen did not forget to tie up the braids of the Tibetan soldiers and put their heads on their heads.
Only then did Pei Zhen realize Lu Wen's intention: "Lijun Lu, do you want to use the body of a Tibetan dog to impersonate our army and distract the pursuing Tibetan soldiers?"
"This is the only thing we can do." Lu Wen said while arranging his bows and arrows, "We are already short of men and horses. If we don't do this, we will all die in Tulum Moraine. Not only will the bones of our brothers not be able to return home, Selüburg is also finished, and all these weapons and armor are cheap for the Tubo dogs."
Pei Zhen nodded and said, "Then I will lure away the Tibetan soldiers."
"You?" Lu Wen said, "If you're not good at it, don't argue with me."
"I'll go! My skills are no worse than yours, Lu Tou." After Du Yue said that, he got on his horse.
As a result, he used too much force this time, and the mount sank violently under his pressure. Immediately, Xuexue staggered a few steps to one side, hissing sadly, and almost fell sideways to the ground.
Seeing this, Lu Wen shook his head and said: "With your body, you can't run fast with a horse on its back. If you can't run ten miles, you will be overtaken by the Tibetan soldiers. Won't your secret be revealed by then?"
Du Yue stopped in place with a stinky face, not knowing whether to leave or stay.
"Okay, hurry up and follow Lao Pei with your weapons, armor and horses." Lu Wen said, "Colonel Tian said that he would also let you be his Mo Dao General. Don't let him down."
"Army." Pei Zhen crossed his hands and said, "Then let's..."
"Let's go, hurry up, and go directly to Khotan Town when we are out of danger."
As Lu Wen said this, he put the bag on his head again.
After watching Pei Zhen and Du Yue leave with the Turkic horses carrying armor and weapons, Lu Wen cut off the tail of a dead Turkic horse from the root, and then used the hairy tail as a broom to clean up the traces.
After cleaning up the traces, Lu Wen led the "zombie cavalry" in another direction.
