Transmigrator Meets Reincarnator
Chapter 187
"Where are they?!"
The leader of the team did not expect to see his comrade's body when he opened the tent. He kicked the tent owner to the ground.
The tent owner was also scared out of his wits. He trembled as he knelt on the ground. His whole body was shaking.
There were living people in the tent, not four animals!
The leader stared at the four corpses in front of him with a solemn expression. He immediately ordered his subordinates, "Guard 10, Guard 13, go after them!
The rest of you, follow me back to Su City. "
He Changdi led the food transport team on a difficult trek. Even with Lu Zhou, their speed was not very fast.
The horses needed to rest, and the snow never stopped. The weather in the north was really terrible.
Xiao Hongyu jumped into Lu Zhou's warm shed. He immediately rubbed himself up and down. He moved closer to the charcoal for a long time before he could catch his breath.
He covered his red and sore ears with his hands and complained, "It's really cold outside. Brother He, how many days do we have before we get to the camp?"
He Changdi saw him come in, so he put on his gloves and said, "Hongyu, you and Brother Zhang rest first. I'll go take a look outside.
If I'm not wrong, with our current speed, we'll arrive in two days at most. "
Xiao Hongyu heard He Changdi's words and seemed to sigh in relief. Motherf * cker, I don't want to live in the cold like this anymore.
Zhang Mai was roasting a few pieces of beef over the fire. He shook his head regretfully and said, "What's going on? It's the same beef, why is there such a big difference between my roast and sister-in-law's?"
He Changdi, who was just about to step out of the warm shed, paused for a moment when he heard Zhang Mai talking to himself.
Xiao Hongyu glanced at Zhang Mai's roast beef in disgust. He saw that half of it was burnt and rolled his eyes.
He would rather starve to death than eat Brother Zhang's dark cuisine. It was too scary.
He Sanlang rode on horseback and stared at the boundless snowy world in front of him. The hood on his head was covered with a layer of black gauze, so his vision was not very clear.
Walking in the snow, especially on a grassland like the Northern Region, was a boundless expanse of white when it snowed. If people kept staring at the vast expanse of white snow, they would be hurt by the ultraviolet rays reflected from the snow and suffer from snow blindness. Covering one's eyes with a layer of black gauze was a very effective way to prevent snow blindness.
This layer of black gauze was equivalent to modern goggles.
Ever since the soldiers were given a black veil, no one had ever suffered from snow blindness.
This simple method was something that Chu Lian had inadvertently mentioned to him.
He Changdi tightened his grip on the reins and immediately felt the leather gloves on his hands. These gloves were different from the ones used by the army.
The fingers on these gloves were distinct and there was a piece of wear-resistant leather sewn into the palm of his hand. Not only were the gloves waterproof, but they were also very warm due to the thin layer of wool sewn on the inside. Compared to the gloves used in the army, which only had four fingers and thumb, these gloves were much better. Xiao Hongyu had been drooling over them for a long time.
He glanced at them and remembered what Chu Lian had said when she gave him the gloves. "Keep these, they're better than the ones in your army."
Not only were they better, he didn't even need to take them off when he was fighting.
He Changdi's body suddenly froze.
He closed his eyes, as if trying to pull himself out of a sweet dream.
What was going on? Why was Chu Lian like a shadow that he couldn't get rid of? She was always by his side.
What was shameful was that he didn't hate this feeling at all. Instead, he kept recalling as if he was poisoned. He actually remembered every single word that Chu Lian had said in front of him in this life, even the simplest greeting.
He Sanlang's thin lips were tightly pursed. His eyes were as deep as the unfathomable ocean, and his emotions were as turbulent as a sea wolf in the blue ocean.
His expression changed slightly and he smiled bitterly. He had really been 'poisoned' by Chu Lian.
This woman must have been eating and drinking well in the camp when he was fighting for the fifty thousand soldiers in the north. It was as if she had that kind of magical power that allowed her to live well no matter where she was.

})();
This inevitably caused He Sanlang to feel a sense of displeasure and frustration in his chest, as if a piece of his heart had been dug out.
Just as he couldn't help but let his thoughts run wild, a few black dots appeared in the distance.
The black dots grew larger and larger. He Sanlang frowned slightly and waved his hand behind him. Immediately, a small group of people left the formation and chased after the black dots.
Not long after, the patrol team brought three people over on horseback.
As they approached, He Changdi recognized the leader at a glance. He was one of the guards that Princess Wei had sent to Chu Lian.
For no reason, He Sanlang's heart sank and a bad premonition arose.
Li Xing had just arrived in front of He Changdi. Before he could catch his breath, he immediately cupped his hands to He Changdi and panted, "Third Young Master He, the ruler has an urgent letter for you. A day ago, the Northern Army was attacked by the Tuhun people's troops."
What!
He Changdi's face immediately darkened. He quickly took the letter from Li Xing and opened it to read.
Chu Lian's letter was very short, but it explained everything that needed to be said in a concise and concise manner.
She told He Changdi to rush back to the Northern Army camp as soon as possible after reading this letter. Otherwise, the Northern Army's reserves would be empty and it was very likely that the Tuhun people would succeed.
Although the young couple knew the ending of their previous life, the situation in this life had changed too much. No one could say for sure if things would develop like in their previous life. They couldn't be stupid enough to leave the decision to the heavens. That would be truly brainless.
After He Changdi finished reading the letter, he naturally kept it in his arms.
His sword-like eyebrows furrowed even more. He ordered to cancel the rest time for tonight and rushed to the Northern Border Army camp at full speed.
He Changdi led the grain team to the Liangzhou Border Army day and night.
The journey that was supposed to take two days only took one day, and they finally arrived at the Northern Border Army's most critical moment. The Secretary of the Army personally led some people out of the main camp to welcome them, and then arranged for the cooks to make a full meal for the frontline soldiers.
With sufficient supplies, the border soldiers under General Qian's flag were like wolves and tigers. They quickly regained their momentum and counterattacked the Tuhun people. Their equipment was several times better than the Tuhun people's. Previously, they were restrained in the battle because of the food supply. Now that they didn't have to worry about food, their morale immediately soared.
The border soldiers who rarely had a full meal all revealed ferocious expressions and wanted to get back at the Tuhun people.
The border soldiers' morale had been boosted. There was no doubt that they would win.
General Qian admired He Changdi even more. He didn't expect this junior from Duke Jing 'an's estate to be so useful.
It could be said that He Changdi's timely delivery of provisions was one of the most important factors in determining the victory of this battle.
Now that the Tuhun army was declining, a strict and inflexible person like the Duke of Lu, General Qian, was rarely flexible and wanted to send He Changdi to the battlefield at this time.
Now that he wasn't in much danger on the battlefield, and he could follow the last wave of enemies and earn some military merits, coupled with He Changdi's contribution in providing Lu Zhou and transporting provisions, he would definitely be the top individual contributor in this battle of the Northern Border.
This was the icing on the cake. If it were anyone else, they would probably agree immediately.
However, He Sanlang rejected General Qian's rare good intentions.
It wasn't that he was stupid, but that Chu Lian had disappeared!
In a certain tent in the Northern Border Army Camp, a group of people knelt on the ground.
Leading them were Wenqing, Wenlan, Steward Qin, and a few others.
He Changdi sat at the head of the table with a dark expression. He looked at the people below him and wished he could slap them to death.
"What exactly happened?!
How did Third Madam get kidnapped?! "
He Changdi felt a surge of anger in his chest. He was both angry and frustrated.
This vicious woman was usually not very capable, and she had guards by her side. Where did her cleverness in dealing with him go? How could she be so stupid as to let herself be kidnapped?!
Wenqing and Wenlan had worked under He Sanlang since they were young. Although they didn't have many opportunities to see him, they had never seen such a terrifying master.
His aura was as oppressive as a mountain, and no one dared to raise their head to look at him.
It was as if they would be sent to hell if they looked at him.
They were already anxious, so they didn't dare to hide anything. They recounted in detail the day Chu Lian was kidnapped.
He Changdi's hands were clenched tightly on the back of the chair, and his deep eyes narrowed dangerously. His gaze seemed to fall on the tent curtain, but at the same time, it didn't seem like it. No one in the tent dared to say a word. They couldn't even help but breathe lightly.
For some reason, He Sanlang thought of Lu Zhou. He thought of how Xiao Bojian had coveted Lu Zhou's blueprints. When he left Su City with the provisions, Xiao Bojian's eyes were filled with unwillingness and jealousy, and then the sudden attack by the Tu Hun soldiers.
In his previous life, although he was harmed by Chu Lian, he was one of the people closest to Xiao Bojian and Chu Lian. Later, he vaguely learned that the power behind Xiao Bojian was not ordinary. He was far from the old British duke that outsiders saw.
Later, he was able to gain a foothold in the court so quickly because of the mysterious power behind him.
After He Changdi was reborn, the reason why he didn't make a move on him so quickly was because he knew that although Xiao Bojian looked weak on the outside, he was actually a hard nail.
It wasn't hard to guess who did Chu Lian's sudden disappearance.
He Sanlang clenched his fists tightly. Did Xiao Bojian think that he was easy to bully in this life?
In this life, Chu Lian was his wife. No one could take her away from him!
He Changdi had a plan in his heart.
He went to find Laiyue with a cold face, and then through Tang Yan, he informed His Highness Prince Jin's spies in Liangzhou to look for traces of Chu Lian.
After he returned to the Northern Border Army camp, he didn't even have time to change his clothes before he personally went out to investigate.
Although he kept a cold face and looked inhuman, no one could understand the anxiety, vexation, and heartache in his heart.
He could only use busyness to numb himself and not let himself think in a bad direction.
