In this era, communication is always difficult, and even important military reports and military information are often delayed, not to mention the current situation when Shaoxing Mansion is in chaos and news from the north and south is cut off.

But there was no need for letters to exchange, relying on his eyes, Yu Dayou knew that the Japanese were defeated.

Of course, he also needs a small prop, the pair of binoculars that Qian Yuan gave him a few years ago.

Originally, Yu Dayou was ready to lead 500 soldiers to touch the Usurpation Town...... According to Zhou Ji's recollection, there were no more than 200 Japanese pirates left in the town.

But before he had time to approach Usurpation Town, the torches in the distance made Yu Dayou dumbfounded. Or is it a defeat of the Japanese invaders?

When Yu Dayou led Zhou Ze to climb the hill and watched a large number of Japanese invaders rushing into Uranfeng Town in a panic, he knew that the official army had won a great victory, and the Japanese had been defeated, and the stars behind should be the official army chasing the enemy.

"Look at your great idea!" The guards touched the cold sweat on their heads on the side, if they had set off earlier, and now a group of people were just blocked in the town of Usurper, it would be called heaven and earth should not be called the earth.

"How do I know......" Zhou Ji was also touching the cold sweat on his head, and said blankly: "What now?" ”

"Phew!"

Yu Dayou snorted fiercely, startling Zhou Ji and a few guards next to him.

You must know that Yu Dayou has always been regarded as a Confucian general by Southeast Shilin, and this Confucian general is not like Qi Jiguang who does a few poems...... Yu Dayou studied "Yi" with the Great Confucianism when he was a teenager, and in the words of the Southeast Shizi, a Five Classics question, I dare not say how good it is, but it is no problem to pass the Zhejiang Township Examination!

In fact, before Yu Dayou joined the army, he used to be a student...... Passed the exam!

Therefore, Yu Dayou is calm no matter what happens, he is as stable as Mount Tai, even if Pinghu was defeated that year, he was forced into Chongde.

But today, Yu Dayou was ruthless...... He has always refused to fight if he is not sure, and today he wants to play a big game!

The first to return to Ufeng Town was naturally Xu Hai, although he couldn't ride a horse at night, but he rode a horse a long way before nightfall.

However, Xu Hai did not flee immediately, but stopped in Uranfeng Town, trying to gather the remnants of the army.

If Xu Hai doesn't gather the Japanese and carry it slightly, the officers and soldiers can chase all the way to Lihai, and how many people can climb the sea boat to escape at that time?

Xu Hai didn't have a good heart, but he knew that he had made countless enemies over the years, and this defeat, if there was no one around him, the ghost knew if he would be killed by anyone.

Zhou Ji poked his head out from behind the mountain, took a few looks at the binoculars and dropped it, muttering, "Go over...... There should be four or five hundred, right? ”

"At least five hundred." The guard on the side is called Li Sheng, who is Li Liangqin's nephew, and there are many protégés in Yu Dayou's army, and they are children of the clan.

"I don't know who the pursuers are...... Slowly. Zhou Ji looked at the torches that barely changed in the distance, "At this speed, the Japanese have gone to sea, and they haven't arrived at Usurpation Town yet!" ”

Soon after saying this, the fire in the distance gradually grew larger, and hundreds of torches rushed straight towards the town of Usurper.

Zhou Ji smacked his lips, "The Japanese are used to setting up ambushes, so it's better to be careful." ”

Li Sheng on the side couldn't help but roll his eyes, and let you finish talking alone.

"Xu Hai is accustomed to surviving in the dead, and he fights hard in a difficult situation...... Zhou Ji's face is a little gloomy, "In the middle of the night, such a hurry, if the Japanese really set up an ambush ......"

"Not necessarily, the Japanese are defeated, you see, the mountains are everywhere, if we don't climb eighty percent of the heights, we will have to collide, and we still have the strength to set up ambushes?"

The whispered discussion continued, Zhou Ji and Li Sheng kept bickering, the former still resenting the latter for sweeping himself down with a stick......

"If you can't do it, can you blame others?"

"Phew, three fight one, and it took a long stick to win, do you want to be shameless?"

There is a saying that Wangshan ran away from the dead horse, the fleeing Japanese invaders, and the pursuing officers and soldiers passed under the mountain one by one, and the two of them were afraid of falling asleep without saying a word.

"Look!" Li Sheng pinched Zhou Ji, who was about to fall asleep, "There are really ambushes!" ”

Zhou Ji rubbed his sleepy eyes vigorously, and looked through the moonlight, the torches that were still neat had been messed up, like a long snake being cut off, and the fire points gradually dispersed, gradually extinguished, and disappeared into the night one by one.

"It's Liu Xian." Zhou Ji sighed.

"Why?"

This is a simple judgment, although Zhou Ji has been on the side of the Japanese for more than a year, but the news is not so closed, some of the officers and troops who were pursuing before passed under the mountain, and he saw it very clearly, there was no wolf tooth ...... Several official armies in the south and east of Shaoxing Prefecture, including Qi Jiguang of Ningbo Prefecture and Lu Bin of Taizhou Prefecture in the back, all opened the way with wolf teeth.

An hour later, in the village more than ten miles away from Ufeng Town, Hu Zongxian no longer had a calm bearing, jumping to his feet and scolding, Zheng Ruozeng on the side was so angry that he gasped, Mao Kun broke the brush in his hand, but Qian Yuan didn't move, yawning expressionlessly.

Shangyu Chengtou, Qian Yuan has no opinion on Hu Zongxian's arrangement, but the problem is that Hu Zongxian overestimated the combat power of Liu Xian's command too much, and also underestimated the combat power of the desperate Japanese robbers.

Qi Jiguang led the army to encircle and suppress more than 1,000 Japanese who were left by Xu Hai, and Liu Xian, who was copied from the north, ...... The four thousand officers and soldiers were actually broken out by Xu Hai.

Liu Xian was stationed in Shanyin before being attacked by the Japanese invaders, and his strength was greatly damaged, and his general Yue Puhe was Cao Bangfu's old general, and he was quite famous in the army, and he was not very birdish Liu Xian.

After that, Hu Zongxian transferred 2,000 soldiers from the command of Tang Kekuan, a general from western Zhejiang, so that Liu Xian's command maintained nearly 4,000 soldiers...... But those old fritters under Tang Kekuan's command, in the face of the Japanese who desperately rushed into battle and wanted to fight a bloody way, they did not hesitate to give up a way.

Liu Xian wanted to fight, and it is said that a big knife killed more than ten Japanese robbers...... But this is a bird, at dusk, Xu Hai led more than a thousand Japanese robbers to break Liu Xian and fled all the way to the north.

"If you can't beat it, you have to stick to it!" Liang Sheng in the corner muttered angrily: "It's okay now!" ”

Wang Yi glanced over, it was not our turn to speak in this room.

Originally, Hu Zongxian's plan was quite perfect, Liu Xian cut off Xu Hai's way of life to the north, even if he was defeated, he could be entangled to death, and when Qi Jiguang freed up his hand to pursue again, he would definitely be able to defeat the remnants of more than 1,000 Japanese robbers on the second day.

But Liu Xian was too wasteful, and he let Xu Hai kill him, and he couldn't even stick to it, so Qian Yuan could only send a message immediately and let Qi Jimei, who had just captured Lianghu, lead the army north, but when Hu Zongxian, Qian Yuan and others arrived, Liu Xian commanded an army of 4,000 troops...... Less than two thousand remained in the establishment.

Hu Zongxian was naturally furious, and ordered Liu Xian to immediately lead the army in pursuit, and he must not let the Japanese escape from the sea.

Qian Yuan didn't care about this...... I can't beat it face to face, and I still chase, chase a yarn!

And counting the footsteps, Xu Hai should have returned to Ufeng Town at this time, this town is less than ten miles away from Lihai, Xu Hai can escape from the sea at any time, and Wu Baipeng and Yuepu River no matter how fast they are, there is no way to block the Japanese Kou.

But pursuit, pursuit, pursuit...... was actually ambushed by the Japanese and defeated again, and Qian Yuan was laughed at angrily.

"One general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies." Mao Kun gritted his teeth and said: "If you can't block the Japanese invaders, Xu Hai can at least carry a thousand people out of the sea, I'm afraid it will be revived." ”

Hu Zongxian glanced at Qian Yuan, he knew in his heart, don't look at the fierceness of other people's scolding, and Qian Yuan didn't say a word, but among the people present, he was afraid that Qian Yuan was the most angry in his heart.

Of course, Xu Hai left the sea with a thousand people, which meant that none of Qian Yuan's plans could be implemented, unless Ge Hao could lead the sailors to capture Xu Hai at sea...... But it's almost impossible.

After a long silence, Hu Zongxian got up and said: "Order, those small groups of fleeing Japanese pirates do not need to be managed, so Qi Yuanjing immediately led his troops north."

Then Jiang Zhou and Chen Keyuan were ordered to go to Ningbo immediately and go to sea by boat. ”

Qian Yuan tugged at the corners of his mouth, Jiang Zhou and Chen Keyuan went to find Wang Zhi at this time, just to inform Xu Hai of the defeat, but will Wang Zhi send troops?

With a long sigh, Qian Yuan left the room without saying a word, and went straight to find a place to fall asleep.

He had lost hope.

But sometimes, fate is just that.
