Chapter 466: Hurry up!
After knowing that Su Xuan's true purpose was to stop Chi You, even though he was shocked by Chi You's power, the Black Knight of the Six Fingers immediately mobilized the Mohist disciples, preparing to help Su Xuan with all his might.
Saving the world is something the Mohist School is duty-bound to do!
No matter how powerful the former Lord of War Chi You was, now, it was no longer his era. He had reappeared in the world, and he should not think of harming the common people.
The specific location of the ancient kingdom of Many Loulan would be determined by the people of the Shushan tribe.
And this time, what Su Xuan wanted to achieve with the help of the Mohist School was to build some vehicles that could travel in the desert.
Whether it was the records in the Shushan tribe's materials or the records in the theatrical version, there was no doubt that the ancient kingdom of Many Loulan existed in the depths of the desert.
Wanting to walk in the desert was naturally not a problem for Su Xuan.
"337" Even if he didn't eat or drink, he could walk on flat ground in the desert, but for others, it was not so easy.
Camels could also be used as vehicles, but thinking of the sand ships built by the Gongshu family in the theatrical version, Su Xuan felt that there could be a better choice.
If the Mohist School couldn't do this, he wouldn't mind going to the Gongshu family for help.
Upon hearing Su Xuan's request, the Black Knight of the Six Fingers was slightly stunned.
"Vehicles that can travel in the desert? I can try!"
Su Xuan's request surprised the Black Knight of the Six Fingers, but it was indeed a good direction to try, because previously, the Mohist School had never built similar mechanical beasts.
The Mohist School had four major mechanical beasts: the Azure Dragon and the Vermilion Bird could fly in the sky, the White Tiger could roam the land, and the Black Tortoise could gallop across the vast ocean.
But there was no mechanical beast that could travel in the desert.
However, this did not stump the Black Knight of the Six Fingers.
In any case, the desert could be considered land. Walking on land was always simpler than making mechanical beasts that flew in the sky or swam in the water. If they really couldn't build one, preparing a few Vermilion Bird mechanical birds would be the same. The Vermilion Bird mechanical birds could fly in the sky and carry people. It would be even better to fly directly in the sky by riding the Vermilion Bird, and because of the high vantage point, it would be even better to survey the terrain.
After confirming Su Xuan's request, the Black Knight of the Six Fingers began to contact Master Ban to research it, and at the same time, called on some Mohist disciples to go to Longxi Commandery in advance to prepare.
The Western Regions where Many Loulan was located were close to the Longxi and Beidi Commanderies of the Qin State. Outside these two commanderies were the grazing lands of the Yuezhi, which was the famous Hexi Corridor. The Hexi Corridor was currently a huge oasis with rich water and soil.
If history developed normally, in the future, Meng Tian would lead troops to occupy the Hexi Corridor. Then, at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the world would be in chaos, and the Yuezhi would make a comeback and recapture the Hexi Corridor. By the time of the Han Dynasty, the Yuezhi would be defeated by the Xiongnu, and this place would fall into the hands of the Xiongnu again. Subsequently, the entire Western Regions would become a thorn in the side of the Central Plains until the Xiongnu were driven away, and this place would fall into the hands of the Central Plains again.
The ancient kingdom of Many Loulan was a small country in the Hexi Corridor, which later became part of the Silk Road. In history, it once became the eyes and ears of the Xiongnu.
Of course, that was the ancient kingdom of Many Loulan in history.
Whether the ancient kingdom of Many Loulan in this world was that ancient kingdom, no one could say for sure.
The Black Knight of the Six Fingers gathered the Mohist people to arrive at the commandery near the Hexi Corridor in the Qin State in advance, and at the same time, contacted the officials there to prepare the corresponding materials. Because the mechanical beasts were huge, it was obviously impossible to transport them over a long distance, so they obtained materials locally and prepared to manufacture and assemble the mechanical beasts on the spot.
Of course, the premise was that the Black Knight of the Six Fingers could produce the blueprints.
After discussing with Su Xuan, the Black Knight of the Six Fingers left the Yin-Yang School to draw the blueprints.
After Su Xuan arranged for the people of the Yin-Yang School, Meng Tian and the three thousand Golden Fire Cavalry were also ready. After all, Many Loulan was just a small country, and three thousand troops were more than enough.
After the army was ready, Su Xuan also led the people of the Shushan tribe to join Meng Tian's army and headed towards Longxi Commandery.
The location of Xianyang was called "Neishi Commandery" among the thirty-six commanderies, located in the central area of Neishi Commandery. Above Neishi Commandery, that is, in the due north direction, was Beidi Commandery, and to the left, that is, in the northwest direction, was Longxi Commandery.
It could be said that the capital of the Qin State was not far from the Western Regions.
This was also the reason why the people of the Shushan tribe agreed to Su Xuan's return to Xianyang first, because from Shushan Commandery to Longxi, one had to pass through Hanzhong, and then arrive at Longxi from Hanzhong.
Although they traveled a bit more distance now, they received the full support of the Qin State.
Looking at the three thousand Golden Fire Cavalry led by Meng Tian, Yu Jun, who was mixed in the army, had to sigh that this was an elite force.
He did not know that in the original work, it was Meng Tian who led this group of elites, together with the Yin-Yang School, to exterminate the Shushan tribe. Many treasures of Shushan were lost, and the Yuyuan seal was also in jeopardy.
It had to be said that fate, at times, was indeed difficult to fathom.
In the original work, it was Donghuang Taiyi and Meng Tian who joined forces to destroy Shushan.
And now, it was Shushan and Meng Tian who were about to go and crusade against Donghuang Taiyi, who had been possessed by Chi You!
The Yin-Yang School, the sect led by Donghuang Taiyi in the original work, had long since turned against him and pointed their weapons at Donghuang Taiyi.
Because the matter was urgent.
So Meng Tian's army marched very fast, and the Golden Fire Cavalry were cavalry after all.
In just a few days, Su Xuan and his party arrived at Longxi Commandery.
