However, in recent times,

The other party's retreat,

But he seemed to be in a hurry,

It can even be said that

It's all starting to panic,

This is the same as the previous style of conducting,

But it's the opposite,

Xu Rong really didn't take this into account before,

Now after hearing Pang Tong mention it,

He also understood the deep meaning of the other party's words in an instant.

After Pang Tong saw General Xu's expression,

Immediately understood that the other party had noticed that all this was unusual,

Then he continued:

"Listening to Liu Jun's report, it seems that the commander of the other party is no longer there."

"Gone!?".

Xu Rong couldn't help but look at Pang Tong in surprise when he heard this,

It's not just Xu Rong who was taken aback,

All of you here,

It's almost all the same,

Even the most calm Li Ru,

At this moment, his eyes widened,

looked at Pang Tong who said this earth-shattering news.

Pang Tong touched the short beard of his chin,

also showed a strange look on his face,

Then he continued to answer:

"It's really gone."

After a pause, he continued:

For this matter, Liu Jun went to the front to investigate carefully, but after all, this animal is different from humans, and he can't be sure whether the commander named Mamel on the other side is dead or has gone elsewhere. However, what can be determined now is that that Mamel is not in the army of the Kushan Empire now, and the person in charge of the commander now is Mamel's personal guard. Moreover, this news, within the enemy army, does not seem to have spread. ”

After hearing Pang Tong's words,

Although everyone was even more shocked,

But they were just shocked by the news,

But he was not surprised by Liu Jun's intelligence ability,

During this period of fighting in the Western Regions,

If it weren't for the existence of Liu Jun,

They simply can't,

So easily toyed with the 300,000 troops of the Kushan Kingdom in applause,

It can be said that now that we can achieve such results,

Liu Jun and his animal scouts,

Definitely occupy half of the military merit medal.

Therefore, Pang Tong said,

This news was transmitted back by Liu Jun,

And he also in order to confirm the authenticity of this news,

even went to the front line to investigate,

So he passed back this news,

Its authenticity is naturally self-evident.

Even Xu Rong this time,

I didn't continue to speak to stop it,

To be honest, if only the other party's command style has changed,

Xu Rong will also be worried,

Is this a ruse made by the commander of the other party named Mamel,

You know, although the dark group is in the Kushan Empire,

The intelligence system that has been established is not yet systematic,

But Mamel's material,

But it has already been submitted back in detail,

Therefore, they have long known this guy thoroughly,

Therefore, Xu Rong will be more cautious,

But now,

This Mamel disappeared mysteriously,

So Xu Rong's worries,

It becomes unnecessary,

If the other party is just hiding,

If you are still in the midst of the great army,

Then it is impossible to escape Liu Jun's pervasive investigation,

But what if the other party hides somewhere else?

This possibility,

It's just a minimal,

It's simply impossible.

Li Ru also had a strange look on his face,

couldn't help but whisper:

"Is this a legend, even God is helping us? Did that Mamel really become a ghost? ”

Ma Chao was the first to react,

He spoke with some disappointment:

"It's a shame that without that Mamel, other people's heads wouldn't be worth anything!"

After hearing Ma Chao's complaints,

Everyone couldn't help but laugh,

Pang Tong raised his eyes to look at Xu Rong,

With a relaxed smile on his face, he said with a small opening.

"Old General Xu should be relieved now, right?"

The smile on his face is relaxed and free,

It's even more naughty.

Xu Rong smiled bitterly and shook his head and said:

"If this is the case, the old man will naturally not stop him more, on the contrary, he will wish General Ma a victory!"

Now that we have accurate intelligence information,

Naturally, the heart does not need to hesitate any longer,

Xu Rong is not a person who drags mud and water,

Of course, it is also the truth that fighters cannot be missed.

After Ma Chao heard about it,

There was a look of joy on his face,

looked at Pang Tong eagerly,

Now even Xu Rong, who had previously opposed the sending of troops, has agreed,

So this time to pursue the Kushan Empire's army,

It's already a sure thing,

Ma Chao for this pioneer position,

That's inevitable.

Now there is the recommendation of General Xu Rong and the old general,

This position must already be in his pocket,

Now wait for Pang Tong to open his mouth and make an announcement.

Turning his head, he happened to see Pang Tong smiling at himself,

Ma Chao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed,

After all, it has not been officially announced,

On his own side, he was already overjoyed,

If it's a bad trouble,

It is very likely to become happy and sad,

How can a happy event turn into a sad event.

Pang Tong did not continue to torture Ma Chao,

Nodding his head, he opened his mouth and announced:*

"Ma Chao and Pang De listen to orders!".

After hearing Pang Tong's greeting,

The two of them immediately straightened up,

Stood up from his position,

At the same time, two steps forward were taken.

"With the two of you leading your own troops and horses, quickly go to pursue the Kushan Empire's army, this time the pursuit is mainly to kill and wound as many enemy troops as possible, if you can capture a large number of enemy soldiers, you should be credited! In this battle, only victory is allowed, not defeat! If there is a violation of military orders, military law will serve!"

Ma Chao's face turned red with excitement,

Among Pang Tong's orders,

It couldn't have been clearer,

This time the battle,

It is a war of annihilation, a war of pursuit,

is to hope to expand the results of the war on a large scale,

This news,

is in the arms of Ma Chao,

Some time ago,

can only hang from afar,

But it has never been able to confront it head-on,

It's really tormenting him,

Now, I can finally let go of my hands and feet to fight,

Without thinking, the two shouted their orders.

After Pang Tong finished instructing the two of them,

Only then did he turn his head to look at Li Ru and ask:

"Mr. Li, how is the captured Kushan man now?"

The man of Pang Tong's words,

It is the wise man of the Kushan Empire's army this time - Mindok.

In the battle of the first line of heaven before,

Mindok was left behind,

The Han army did not massacre the Kushan soldiers who were ambushed,

But at the same time,

They held out until the end,

and never broke through,

It is even more impossible to wait for Mamel's reinforcements to be rescued,

Finally, under the double threat of the Han army's crossbow arrows and starvation,

These tens of thousands of people had to surrender with their weapons,

Mingdok did not choose to die Mingzhi,

Naturally, he was captured by the Han army.

But he always took the approach of not surrendering and not cooperating,

Others,

But there is unconditional cooperation throughout the process,

This strange attitude,

Let Li Ru, who has been in charge of these captives,

The heart feels very interesting,

But at the same time, it is also quite helpless,

Because of that Mindok,

It is clear that the soft and hard do not eat,

No matter what kind of way Li Ru takes,

He refused to communicate,

Li Ru could only entertain him very helplessly.

In fact, several of them also understand, too

The reason why Mindalk behaved so strangely,

It's nothing more than waiting for Lu Bu,

Or Pang Tong's personal reception,

Now, though he is only a prisoner,

But in terms of identity,

He's really not low,

On the one hand, the wise men of the 300,000 expeditionary force,

That is, the position of a military advisor on the Central Plains side,

On the other hand,

Mindocco was made up of His Majesty by their Emperor,

Personally appointed officials,

Such a dual identity,

In terms of status,

Even higher than Pang Tong,

As far as the whole state is concerned,

I'm afraid that only Lu Bu can compare with him,

After all, today's Lu Bu,

In terms of identity,

is just the shepherd of a state,

Although he also received the shepherds of several other states,

But after all, they are all officials subordinate to the imperial court,

Unless it is said that Lu Bu can ascend the throne and become emperor,

Then this is possible,

Completely suppress Mindoc from the identity,

When that time comes,

Don't say it's for Pang Tong to persuade Mindok to surrender,

Even if it is only for Li Ru or even Ma Chao to persuade him to surrender,

There's nothing rude about that.

But now,

After all, he has not succeeded in ascending the throne,

Therefore, Mindok is so gripping the shelf,

Although they are very unhappy,

But there's no way,

Unless he is intending not to surrender this person,

But through the intelligence of the dark group,

They have been told,

This Mindok is a guy with real talent,

And the other party is a commoner from the Kushan Empire,

Although they were appreciated by His Majesty the Emperor,

But they may not be able to be loyal to the Empire,

Such talents,

is what is most needed in the state today,

Therefore, Pang Tong and others,

I want to convince this Mindok to be obedient,

Now, nature comes first by his nature,

After all, twisted melons aren't sweet.

But now that so many days have passed,

Pang Tong also trolled,

It should be about the same time for such a long time,

That's why I specifically asked about Li Ru today.

"Looks like I still need to meet this guy in person for a while......"

Pang Tong rubbed his chin playfully,

There was a look of distress on his face,

But the burning eyes,

The inside is full of excitement.

Several people saw his look,

I couldn't help but nod my head knowingly.

In the camp of the Han army,

There is a large area of independent tents,

The tent here is set up a little strangely,

In the distance is a large patchwork of tents,

It looks relatively simple,

Around every tent,

are all separated by some things,

There is an easy aisle between each other,

Although they can see each other,

But there is no way to meet,

In every little tent,

But it was crowded with about twenty people,

Although these people are not restrained in their movements,

But the clothes on his body are very simple,

Between every two or three such tents,

There will always be a tent of the Han army,

There were five or six heavily armed Han soldiers living inside.

The two sides are intertwined like cobwebs,

This is also what Pang Tong conceived,

The method of being able to hold these tens of thousands of prisoners of war on a large scale,

The reason why there is no draconian way,

put them in detention,

Pang Tong is still planning to let these people be used by me in the future,

That's why I came up with this thankless solution,

This is still the richness of the state today,

That's why it can afford such a huge supply of grain and grass.

Those slave soldiers before them,

Now all of them are free,

They can choose to return to their respective countries.

Or stay and join the Han army,

Treatment and Han soldiers,

There is no difference,

This move has won the hearts of many people.

Almost all slave soldiers,

All joined the Han army,

All of a sudden, the Western Regions Expeditionary Force had nearly 20,000 more combat power,

These aren't the eggs of those new recruits.

They are all from the battlefield of a hundred battles,

The elite who fought bloodily,

Especially after experiencing being captured by the Kushan Empire,

Become a slave soldier to fight,

The worst equipment supplies are used,

Even often hungry to fight,

But the task of responsibility,

But it is the most arduous and dangerous,

In this case,

Warriors who have survived,

One by one, you can say,

As long as you cultivate well,

Once you're back in top shape,

Each is a super elite soldier with one top one,

Now the only flaw,

It just takes a long time,

to be able to get these people really into the fight,

On the one hand, it takes time,

trim them,

Previously mistreated,

makes each of them in a very poor physical state,

And on the bodies of many people,

There are old diseases or dark wounds,

These require a lot of time to cultivate.

Fortunately, Lu Bujun was equipped with a professional medical team very early.

Whether it's a doctor,

Or those nurses,

All of them have undergone professional and systematic training.

Far from those barefoot,

Or those who were caught at will can be compared,

Therefore, in terms of injury recovery,

Lu Bujun also has a unique advantage.

On the other hand,

Most of these soldiers are from different countries and regions,

Although it was barely integrated before,

But that's to be used as a slave soldier,

I haven't even practiced at all,

Now the Han army is training them as an elite unit.

So you have to have a lot of time.

In order to be able to make this like a scattered 'multinational coalition',

Real formation of combat power.

So now although the number of Han troops has increased a lot,

But those who can take it out for a decisive battle with the Kushan army,

In fact, there are only nearly 20,000 cavalry troops in Ma Chao's headquarters.

But fortunately, there is one thing,

It was in this war,

The 'Mar's repeater',

This kind of big killer on the battlefield,

It can be said that it is invincible,

If it weren't for Pang Tong's change of mind before,

If there is no consent to continue the killing with such weapons,

I'm afraid that today's Kushan army,

The number of losses will increase by at least 40 percent.

Therefore, under the premise that the other side does not have a good commander,

Just with Ma Chao and other 20,000 soldiers and horses,

Go after the Kushan country,

Nearly 100,000 troops,

It's not like it's out of the question.

On the opposite side of those prisoner of war camps,

It's a much more luxurious tent.

The venue is also a lot wider,

There is plenty of room for those inside.

But there are also a lot of guards on the periphery.

This is the same tent where Mindok is being held.
