Chapter 61: Pursuit and Escape

Chi Mu'er is a martial idiot, he and Qi Wei are inseparable, and he is very happy in his heart. Over the years, there are not many opponents who can match him! The more he fought, the more excited he became, and the long hammer in his hand flew up and down, beckoning to Qi Wei everywhere in his body.

"General, we are surrounded, hurry up and fight our way out of the encirclement!" Chimur was very involved in the fight, and he didn't observe the changes around him at all, and only after listening to the soldiers next to him that he looked up. As a result, he found that the soldiers he led were dead, and those who fled were fleeing, and there was not much left.

Chimur is belligerent, but he is not a fool and knows that if he doesn't run at this time, he won't have a chance. He yelled, "Come with me!" Then he gave up Qi Wei, turned around and killed backwards. Of course, the Dafu soldiers around him refused to let them go, raising their weapons to block his way. I don't think this guy's strength is really too strong, the long hammer in his hand was swung, and the Dafu soldiers in front of him were smashed to pieces. Before the other Dafu soldiers could surround him, he rushed out with the Liuyi soldiers behind him.

At this time, the battle was nearing its end, and the vast majority of the Liuyi soldiers were dead and fled, and only a few of the Liuyi soldiers who had not had time to escape were still dying, but there was obviously no way to live.

Qi Wei did not pursue Chimur and the others, he called the uninjured soldiers together, organized them to treat the wounded, counted the casualties, and collected the booty.

After this battle, the soldiers of the mission suffered more than 50 casualties, while the Liuyi people left more than 100 corpses, which can be said to be a great victory. But Qi Wei and the others were not happy, since the people of the Sanhua tribe wanted to be unfavorable to themselves and others, they would definitely not give up, and the greater test was still to come.

In front of a large earthen bag, Yang Yun led the delegation to bow respectfully three times. In this, the soldiers who died in this battle are buried, and in the current situation, they can only be buried in this foreign land.

"Your Highness, it looks like we're going to have to speed up our march." Ju Yuanguang said beside Yang Yun, and his words were quickly approved by everyone present.

"Let's take action, put all the wounded in the carriage, collect the horses that are running around, ride all the horses that can ride, discard non-valuables, and speed up the movement." Under Qi Wei's order, everyone in the mission immediately took action.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and the beautiful morning glow was like a brocade over the grassland. But everyone didn't have time to enjoy this picturesque beauty, and the team hurried in the direction of Dafu.

Speaking of Chimur, he rushed out of Dafu's encirclement with some of his soldiers, ran to the rear for several miles, and then stopped. Organize your generals to gather the Liuyi soldiers who fled in all directions.

After counting the number of people, Chimur looked up to the sky and roared. After this battle, in addition to those who died in battle and fled, there were less than 400 people left in his team of 700 people.

"Sons, everyone knows the temper of Lord Youwang, and if we go back now, we may all be unable to escape death. What we can do now is to summon up the courage and kill again, as long as we kill the prince of Fuguo, we will not only be not guilty, but will be rewarded. The words of one of Chimur'er's generals made the surviving Liuyi soldiers regain some murderous aura in their eyes.

"Kill back, wash away our shame with the blood of the Fu people!" Chi Mu'er slammed the hammer on the grass with his hand and said loudly.

"Kill back, wash away our shame with the blood of the Fu people!" The Liuyi soldiers were immediately excited, and the morale of the entire team was immediately boosted.

The Dafu Legation discarded some unnecessary items and sped up their advance, but their speed was still not as fast as these Liuyi cavalry. In the afternoon, a fast horse caught up with Dafu's team, which was the soldier Qi Wei left behind to observe the enemy.

"Report to Your Highness, they have caught up again, and we are still more than ten miles away." The soldier who caught up quickly didn't bother to wipe the sweat off his forehead, and hurriedly reported to Yang Yun.

Chi Mu'er led the Liuyi soldiers to desperately chase forward, although the ancient grassland is large, but there is no need to worry about chasing and losing the enemy, because the team of more than two hundred people walked by, this trace can not be covered.

"General! Look at the horses' hooves and rut marks, they should not be far from us, there is a pontoon bridge ahead, and we should be able to catch up with them soon after crossing the bridge. A Rogue soldier reported to Chimur.

"Sons, work harder, catch up and kill them!" Chimur shouted loudly, strode and rushed to the first, and his soldiers also roared and rode after him.

Not long after, a pontoon bridge appeared in front of the eyes of the Liuyi people. This pontoon bridge is about two hundred meters long, and the front is wide and flat, which is completely suitable for cavalry to pass.

At this time, there were about twenty merchants sitting on the other side of the bridge resting, and some timber was piled up on the bridge. This strange scene

, if you change to another general, you may be surprised. However, Chimur did not pay attention to the situation, and he strode onto the pontoon bridge, and the soldiers behind him also rode their horses and followed.

"It's not that easy to cross the bridge!" In the caravan on the other side of the bridge, someone suddenly laughed. Immediately afterwards, the group of caravans took out several torches and threw them on the pontoon, which immediately burst into flames.

Chi Mu'er, who had already reached the middle of the bridge, scolded angrily, but there was no other way but to greet the people behind him, turn around and go back. There is a stone bridge upstream of this pontoon bridge, but it is still a dozen miles away. At this time, Chimur had no choice but to lead people up the river.

Seeing Chi Mu'er leading people to run into the distance, this group of merchant travelers also packed up their travels and headed in the direction of Dafu. It turned out that this group of caravans was none other than Yao Xia and others, who left Yangting before everyone else in the mission.

Yao Xia and the others had been not far from the front of the mission, secretly cooperating with the mission. After receiving Yang Yun's order to delay the pursuit of the soldiers, he poured tung oil on this stone bridge, piled dry firewood, and waited for Chi Mu'er and others to come. So there was this scene that had just happened.

With the assistance of Yao Xia and others, the team of the mission once again distanced itself from the team led by Chi Mu'er. Everyone marched hurriedly, and it was not until the time of Shen that the team stopped and looked for a place to take a simple rest.

And Chimur and the others who were chasing after them were distressed, in order to hurry, they did not rest last night, and today there was a big battle, and then it was a rapid march all day, and they were already exhausted. When camping, even the soldiers on duty yawned and fell asleep while standing. But not long after they lay down, the sound of knocking and shouting of killing was remembered all around, and everyone was so startled that they quickly got up and rushed out of the camp, but they looked around, but they found no shadow of the enemy.

The soldiers yawned and searched for a long time, but they did not find the shadow of the enemy, and they did not dare to chase too far for fear of an ambush. I had to go back to sleep again, but as soon as I lay down, the shouting of killing came again. After many such ordeals, they had to take turns sleeping, and many of the soldiers felt as if they had just closed their eyes and it was already dawn. Fearing that the enemy would flee too far, they had no choice but to open their hazy sleepy eyes, climb on their horses and continue the pursuit.

"Young master, the enemy is still more than ten miles away from us, and it is estimated that it will catch up with us in two hours!" A young man from the Cheetah Department hurried over and reported to Yang Yun.

"It seems that these guys will not give up, and we won't be able to return to Dafu calmly until they are completely defeated!" Ju Yuanguang stood next to Yang Yun and said with a frown.

"Yes! Don't teach them a lesson, they think we're papier-mâché! Liu Yuan said.

Yang Yun looked at the team, there were wounded and civilian officials, the marching speed was really not too fast, and sooner or later the other party would have to catch up. So he ordered the team to rest in place, and gathered a few experienced members of the mission to discuss how to deal with the current situation.
