Xiao Jie finally understood that the most painful thing in this world is not that you don't know the answer to the question, but that you know the answer but don't know the steps to solve the problem.

He led the army around Shiwan Dashan for half a month, but he still couldn't find the damn Feihu Gorge.

Feihu Gorge is a valley that does not exist in any local maps. Many local Yue people and mountain people have never heard of it, and their foreign officers and soldiers are even more blind.

The dry food and water they carried were running low, but no one knew how many days they would have to walk to find Feihu Gorge.

But compared to the exhaustion of food, what tortured them most was the harsh natural environment. The miasma in the mountains caused many soldiers to suffer from severe skin diseases.

What makes them even more unbearable is the snakes, insects, rats and ants. Once they are stung or bitten by these things, the pain can be unbearable, and the death can be immediate.

There are also rebels who follow the officers and soldiers like ghosts and ghosts. They often take advantage of their unpreparedness and suddenly shoot a cold arrow. The arrow does not know what poison is smeared, which always makes the officers and soldiers who are shot suffer Passed away in pain.

The [-] army has completely lost their original high morale and morale, and now they can no longer see the original fighting spirit, only endless exhaustion and despair.

Fighting against the bandit army, they can not fear life and death, just want to make contributions and seal their wives and sons.

But in their view, they are now fighting against the sky, and it is impossible for humans to fight against the sky.

Xiao Jie looked at the ragged officers and soldiers in front of him, they were in a state of embarrassment, their expressions were numb, and their eyes were lifeless. If this continues, the officers and soldiers may collapse first without having to fight against the rebels.

Xiao Jie sighed silently, looked at the dense jungle all around, and then raised his head to see the few rays of sunlight shining through the dense forest, feeling a worry that he had never felt in his heart.

"Your Highness, don't be discouraged, I believe we will be able to find Feihu Gorge." Ye Qiu took the initiative to come over to comfort Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie looked at the disheveled and ragged Ye Qiu in front of him, he had long lost his original heroic appearance, but his eyes were still exceptionally bright, full of strong self-confidence.

"Yes, I believe what Lao Ye said is right, I believe we will be able to find that damned Feihu Gorge!" Pang Hu also came over to encourage him.

Xiao Jie shook his head, he was quite confident, but seeing that the state of these soldiers was not right now, and the rebels were still wandering around them, if the morale of the soldiers was still so low, they would be in danger of being defeated by the rebels at any time.

He knew the horror of jungle warfare. The American emperors of later generations were armed to the teeth and fought with guerrillas in the dense forests of Vietnam for ten years, but finally they did not withdraw their troops out of hatred.

Now I lead the army wandering in the deep mountains and old forests for half a month. The soldiers are tortured by the harsh environment, and their morale is naturally hit.

He knew that he had to say something to boost morale, otherwise the soldiers would not be able to survive the moment they found Feihu Gorge.

"Generals!"

Xiao Jie dodged and jumped onto a boulder, making sure that every soldier could see him and hear every word he said.

The soldiers all looked up at Xiao Jie. They used to look at Xiao Jie with gratitude, anticipation and love, but after half a month of torment in the deep mountains and old forests, their eyes are now only tired and numb. Confused about the future.

Xiao Jie glanced across the faces of every soldier, and said in a deep voice: "I know you are suffering now, but in fact I am suffering more than you, not to mention in the capital city, even in Panyu city, I am also an existence that calls the wind and rain, and wants to wear it. Wear whatever you want, eat whatever you want, even no matter what kind of woman I want, she will obediently climb into my bed..."

"Is Your Highness crazy? What nonsense are you talking to everyone at this time?" Pang Hu asked in a low voice to Ye Qiu who was beside him puzzled. Isn't it afraid to anger the soldiers by saying such things to the soldiers at this time? The soldiers were malicious, and it was most likely a mutiny.

Ye Qiu also frowned deeply, but he didn't make a sound. Based on his understanding of Xiao Jie, he is not a person who can talk nonsense, maybe there are other deep meanings in what he said.

As Pang Hu expected, the soldiers looked at Xiao Jie no longer numbly, but instead they were not kind, what time is it, what kind of uncle are you, King Qi, still here.

Xiao Jie didn't seem to notice everyone's anger, and continued to say enthusiastically: "But you, if you didn't join my Jiaozhou Army, maybe you wouldn't be able to eat meat a few times in your life, and you wouldn't be able to wear a few new clothes. If you have the opportunity to marry a wife..."

The soldiers were in an uproar for an instant, and their eyes were already full of anger when they looked at Xiao Jie.

Pang Hu and Ye Qiu yelled inwardly, and stepped forward quietly, as if planning to protect Xiao Jie Zhouquan at any time.

Xiao Jie smiled coldly, and raised his tone: "I know you must be very angry now, you are human, and I am also human, but why do people live so differently. Let me tell you, it is because I have a good ancestor , and you don't!"

"My great-grandfather is Xiao Yan. He was the founding emperor of our Daning Dynasty, but he was not born an emperor, he was also born a commoner, his parents died early, and he lived a life of eating and drinking when he was young. He had no choice but to join the army in order to get enough to eat, because he fought bravely and made great contributions to the enemy on the battlefield, and finally became a general step by step, took charge of the military power in the world, and established the Ning Dynasty."

"Because of him, our Xiao family became the royal family. I have been living a life of wearing whatever I want, eating whatever I want, and sleeping whatever I want. Without him, I would be on the battlefield without him." If you kill the enemy and make meritorious service, then I will not stand here and give orders to you, and I can only stand below like you and listen to the chief's lecture."

"The reason why I tell you so much now is to tell you that the opportunity to change the fate of yourself and your family is now in your hands. As long as you can help the court to destroy the rebels, each of you has the opportunity to seal General Hou Bai, not only you, but your descendants will live a life of luxury and wealth because of this."

"Now, tell us what you should do!"

"Kill the enemy! Make meritorious service!"

Every soldier's throat erupted with a heartfelt roar!

The indifference and numbness in their eyes completely disappeared, replaced by a desire for fighting and a desire for merit.

"Your Highness, good news, good news..."

A small group of scouts supported a wounded companion, and shouted in Xiao Jie's direction from a long distance, with excitement overflowing on his face.

Xiao Jie's heart moved slightly, he quickly jumped off the boulder and ran to the scouts, asking, "Did you discover Feihu Gorge?"

The scout team hurriedly cast their eyes on the injured companion. This person was a little nervous seeing so many eyes looking at him. He nodded at first, but then shook his head, hesitatingly said: "Reporting to Your Highness, I don't know if it is flying or not. Tiger Gorge, I just stumbled and fell down the mountain, and accidentally saw a hidden canyon entrance, and I saw Yue people guarding the valley entrance, so I don't know if it is Feihu Gorge."

Xiao Jie raised his fist excitedly. It should be Feihu Gorge. In the original book, the officers and soldiers led by Xiao Huang lost their way in the forest. Some soldiers accidentally stumbled and fell down the mountain, and accidentally found hidden entrances to the canyon. Seeing that there were Yue people guarding, he finally led his troops to forcibly capture the valley, and found a large amount of grain inside...

Xiao Huang was able to discover the Feihu Gorge because of his destiny buff from his auspicious star, but he didn't expect that one of his own soldiers was successfully reproduced.
