"Rest on the spot for an hour. Drink water and eat. Two people in a group and massage each other." Wang Juan felt that it was almost time. Some of the guards of the Prince's Mansion were already staring blankly in front of them. This situation showed that they no longer cared about other things and only kept the thought of alternating their feet.
At this time, if there was a pit or something in front of them, they would definitely fall. The guards of the Prince's Mansion were indeed not ordinary. Their physical functions had reached the limit and they were holding on with their willpower.
With Wang Juan's order, the 56 people changed from running to strolling. They walked around Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan and took out water to sip.
Some of the guards of the Prince's Mansion were still running forward and were stopped by others. Some bent over and retched, some covered their faces with their hands because of discomfort, and more lay there, gasping for breath while facing the sky.
Only then did Li Xun know that the training methods he usually learned were not enough. After running for this distance, the difference between the two was obvious. He said to the guards,
"Run, continue to run so fast and show off. Are you not convinced? Do you want to suppress the people of the Vigorous Protection Team? In terms of fighting, they are not as good as you. But they are specially trained for this. You don't know your enemy.
In the future, be smarter. Don't be silly and use your weakness to compete with others' strength. Can you win? Get up later and continue to run. You can run slowly, but you can't stop. "
In fact, the guards of the Prince's Mansion were not in the mood to listen to what the Little Prince said. They all wanted to die. From inside to outside, from top to bottom, there was no place that was not uncomfortable.
The people of the protection team first adjusted their bodies, drank some water, ate a little jerky, and then massaged each other. After lying down for a quarter of an hour, they got up and began to help the guards of the Prince's Mansion. Six people were on guard and fifty people gave one-to-one massages.
It might not be noticeable if the members of the protection team had made any progress in other aspects, but they were getting more and more skilled in massaging. The guards of the Prince's Mansion groaned in pleasure. Even those who had a headache due to lack of oxygen earlier also relaxed. Some even fell asleep.
After pressing for 15 minutes, there was still 15 minutes left before the end of the break. The guards of the Prince's Mansion no longer wanted to get up. They just wanted to lie down and sleep. It would be even better if someone continued to massage them.
However, they knew that it was just a thought. No one dared to not get up. They all took out water and food to replenish themselves. At this moment, a few cars came from the front. They stopped in front of the crowd. There was a rice sprout logo on the cars, which made them feel slightly relieved.
As soon as the car door opened, more than a dozen doctors came out of the car and ran to the front to take the pulse of more than a hundred people here. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were no exception. They also let the doctors take a look.
"How is it? Who can't do it? "Li Xun asked with concern. It seemed like he was the only one who couldn't do it.
"They're all fine. Twelve of them still need to rest for half an hour." The leader was a medical doctor. He summarized the opinions of the other doctors and gave a suggestion.
"Then why don't you rest a little longer?" Li Xun turned to Xiaobao.
"No need. We'll leave when it's time. Half an hour will be enough. It seems that we can't complete the journey today. Get up and move around."
Zhang Xiaobao didn't want them to lie down and rest. After they finished resting, they couldn't move anymore.
As soon as half an hour was up, everyone continued to move forward. The backpacks of the guards of the Prince's Mansion were put on the backs of the horses. The people of the protection team were still so relaxed. When the guards of the Prince's Mansion started to hurry, they were a little sore all over. After walking for a while, they felt a little better and gradually sped up.
They also knew that it was because of their team that they slowed down and embarrassed the Little Prince.
The group of people trotted when they had a little strength and walked when they were tired. When they ran, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan would run for a while and then ride a horse. When they walked, they could get down and continue to follow.
When it was dark, they rested for another half an hour and then continued their journey. The dampness and coolness of the night made them feel more energetic. When it was midnight, they took a collective rest under the command of Wang Juan.
They found some branches from the roadside and weeds that were washed everywhere by the flood. After lighting a few bonfires, everyone began to eat.
"This is the real survival in the wild. It's like risking your life." Li Xun said with squinted eyes while eating the cooked porridge and pickled vegetables. He seemed to be able to fall asleep at any time. Compared with the survival in the wild that he had organized before, this kind of speed was the real speed of war.
The people of the protection team chewed very fast when eating, but the real time they took was almost the same as the guards of the Prince's Mansion. After eating, they began to teach the guards of the Prince's Mansion how to pick up water bubbles. After walking for such a long time, it was impossible for the guards of the Prince's Mansion to be fine.
Except for the people of the protection team. They had received more than a year of training to stand in line, swim, and hurry on the road. They did not have the skills to fight in battle, so they were very clear about some body adjustments.
This was also the plan of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. The skills to fight in battle could be trained later. There was no danger now, so the most important thing was to lay a good foundation.
After picking up the water bubbles, they began to apply the medicine, which made the guards of the Prince's Mansion break out in a cold sweat. The medicine was good, but it was impossible for the flesh to not hurt when it touched other things.
Seeing this situation, Wang Juan said unhappily, "It seems that it won't take two and a half days. It will take three days. When we arrive, we also need to rest for two days."
Li Xun knew that Wang Juan was talking about his guards affecting their speed. He could not say anything and could only eat silently. He also knew that the water bubbles would get worse if he did not pick them up, but it would be very painful if he picked them up, especially when they were hurrying on the road.
"Xiao Bao, I'm really sorry. My people have slowed you down." Li Xun apologized to Zhang Xiaobao. Although he said so, he was very happy in his heart. He understood that it was fortunate that he followed these two people out. Otherwise, he would not know that the guards were lacking in this aspect.
The water bubbles were nothing. They could just pick them up. When they came back, the 50 people would not have to worry about rushing on the road. There would be enough calluses on their feet. They could also learn some things that they did not know before. The only regret was that they did not bring all 200 people with them. They could only train them after they came back. They could learn a little bit.
Zhang Xiaobao was proficient in many kinds of psychology. How could he not know what Li Xun was thinking? If it were him, he would also have the same plan. After hearing Li Xun's words, he said angrily,
"That's enough. Don't pretend to be obedient after getting benefits. At this time, there is no such thing as a burden. When it is time to fight for our lives, we will naturally give up. The mission is first. You won't understand even if I explain it to you now. But your guards are really too bad. They are damaging the reputation of the Tang Empire."
"We are not bad. We are just not prepared for such a long journey. When it comes to killing, we are not afraid of anyone." A guard of the prince's residence who was beside Li Xun heard and finally could not hold back and shouted.
As soon as his voice fell, Wang Juan ran up and stepped on Zhang Xiaobao's body to fly up. Her feet were together in the air and kicked the guard's temple. Her toes were tight. If this kick landed, it would directly knock him out.
The guard's reaction was not slow. He tilted his head to the side and then felt a pain in his throat. He could not breathe and lost feeling in his chin. When his body fell back, he saw Zhang Xiaobao's outstretched foot.
At this time, Wang Juan used her hand to grab Zhang Xiaobao's shoulder in the air and landed. She looked at the guard with disdain. Just now, she and Xiao Bao did not use any weapons. Otherwise, this guard would have been a corpse.
The people beside the guard immediately came over to massage the guard's back so that he could breathe. The guard coughed and looked in horror at Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan who were standing there as if nothing had happened.
The guards of the prince's residence always thought that the two children were very weak and took advantage of the Little Prince. Now, they realized that things were not so simple. Just now, the two people did not make any discussion at all. How could they act together and cooperate so well?
Li Xun was also a little confused. He had seen Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's movements when they jumped on the horse. At that time, he felt that it was very amazing. But the attack just now was a little too fast. When Wang Juan jumped up with Zhang Xiaobao, he did not know how she borrowed the force. She was actually able to jump ten feet into the air. Her movements were even more beautiful than when she jumped on the horse.
Zhang Xiaobao did not even raise his head to look. After he lifted Wang Juan up, he immediately rushed over. The distance of four steps was closed in the blink of an eye. With one kick, just one kick, he kicked the guard down. The guard was just in time to receive Wang Juan who was coming down from the sky.
Although the guard was squatting there and had used up a lot of strength in a day, he did not have the strength to fight back against two children who looked eight or nine years old but were actually only six years old.
"You don't know the rules. You are talking to your master. Who do you think you are? Interrupting casually? This is a march. Everything is done according to the rules of the military camp. Just wait to be beaten. Remember this first. If there is a next time, kill. "
Wang Juan scolded with a sullen face. Although her sullen face looked cute, no one was not afraid. Even Li Xun felt that Wang Juan was different from before at this moment. She was like a general who commanded thousands of soldiers and horses. That kind of temperament that combined identity and ability made people absent-minded.
Only Zhang Xiaobao was indifferent. He knew that Wang Juan's aura did not come from the child herself. It was caused by the 56 people who stood behind Wang Juan and reacted quickly.
Li Xun glared at the guard and said, "Remember this matter. When you go back, you will be the commander of the staff. Those who know will think that you are the one who made the decision. Those who don't know will think that I deliberately arranged it. You are embarrassing me."
"Little Prince, I didn't bring any weapons." The guard was still unconvinced.
