The soldiers' mouths were parched, their throats felt as though they were on fire, and their steps grew heavier and heavier.
Wang Dadan licked his cracked lips and said feebly, "Ah, we haven't even started looking for the herbs yet, and I'm practically being roasted to a crisp by this sun. If I could just have a large bowl of cold water right now and gulp it all down, how wonderful that would be."
Liu Erlengzi chimed in with a complaint as well, "Indeed, this cursed weather is so hot it drains all our strength just to walk. Who knows when we'll ever find those herbs to make the Marching Powder."
