Chapter 247 Jiaolong enters the sea

The reason why Wanyan Zongbi announced the news to everyone at this time was naturally to worry that everyone would be worried, and thus the army would be unstable.

Now that the army has begun to march, the arrow is on the string, and it has to be sent, even if everyone has any psychological fluctuations, they can only continue to move forward at this time.

"But General, if we go south, do we still have a chance to live?" A soldier asked in a whisper.

"To the southwest is a dense primeval forest, as long as we enter this primeval forest, even if the Song army wants to find us, it is impossible, when the time comes, we can reach the south along the Yellow River, we can take a boat to the north, return to Shangjing, or continue to the east, through this primeval forest and then to the north, so that we can also skip the encirclement of the Song army." Wanyan Zongbi explained to the soldiers.

After Yan Zongbi's words were finished, the following began to discuss.

"General, we believe in you, we will go wherever you take us!" At this time, a soldier spoke.

As the first soldier finished speaking, many soldiers soon began to respond, and gradually everyone said that they believed Yan Zongbi.

After all, this army is the descendant of Wanyan Zongbi, and they still trust Wanyan Zongbi very much, and now after figuring out Wanyan Zongbi's intentions, they all choose to believe it unconditionally.

Wanyan Zongbi's army began to march towards the primeval forest to the southeast.

On the other side, after dawn, the Song army had a full meal and began to pack their bags, and the army was ready to march.

"What's unusual about the Jin Army's camp?" Liu Qi asked.

"Back to the general, everything is still business as usual on the Jin Army camp." The spy replied.

"Business as usual?" Liu Qi frowned and said, "It's a little unreasonable, isn't the Jin army ready to continue to flee north?" Yesterday they ran for so long, but today they suddenly stopped? It's so abnormal. ”

"If you want to talk about the abnormal place, it should be that the camp of the Jin Army is too quiet." The spy thought for a moment and said to Liu Qi.

"Yikes!" Liu Qi slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "It's not good, Jin Jun is going to run away!" ”

"Ahh When the spies heard this, they were also anxious, this time the army was chasing Wanyan Zongbi's army to fight, this is a good opportunity to make great contributions, if it really let Wanyan Zongbi's army run away, it would be completely their dereliction of duty as spies.

"Go and explore again, you can go a little deeper, this time you must find out the movements of the Jin Army." Liu Qi ordered.

The spies of the Song army were also anxious, and they hurriedly went to the camp of the Jin State to check, the distance of thirty miles was not very far, and the horseback arrived quickly, at the beginning, the two scouts of the Song army did not dare to go too close, and watched for a while five miles away.

"Looks like there's no one in this camp?" One of the spies said.

The other spy nodded and said, "It's true, if there were people, it would be impossible for this Jin Army camp to be like this." ”

"Look ahead!" The first spy suggested.

So the two of them continued to advance forward, and soon advanced to three miles outside the Jin army camp, at this time, they could clearly see the grass and trees in the Jin army camp without binoculars.

"Hurry up and go back and report to the general, the Jin army has withdrawn!" At this time, the other spy had already determined that the camp of the Jin Army had been emptied, and hurriedly said to the other spy.

So the two spies rode their horses and galloped, and soon returned to the Song army camp, at this time Liu Qi's camp had also been cleaned up, and the army was preparing to start.

"General, it's not good, the Jin army's camp is an empty camp, and they have fled overnight." The spy said to Liu Qi.

Although Liu Qi was mentally prepared for the news of the withdrawal of the Jin army, he was still a little shocked when he heard the news at this time, and hurriedly asked, "In which direction did the Jin army withdraw?" ”

This question stopped the two spies in front of them, they found out that there was no one in the Jin army camp at that time, and they didn't hesitate without any hesitation, so they hurried back to deliver the news, as for what the Jin army fled to, they didn't think about it at all, and besides, could it be that the Jin army had nowhere else to go except to flee to the north?

"Big ...... General, the Jin army must have fled to the north, right? The spy said with some weakness.

"Should? What do you mean by should, haven't you found out? Liu Qi said with a frown.

"The general forgives the sin, the two of us found that the Jin army's camp was empty, and we came back in a hurry to report the news, so we didn't seriously investigate the direction of the Jin army's escape, and besides, does the Jin army have any other escape route besides continuing to go north?" The spy hurriedly replied.

"That's it, I'll forgive you this time, if there is a next time, the general will definitely punish you heavily, marching and fighting, the most taboo is to take it for granted, soldiers, sophistry, you spies as the eyes of the army, you must report according to the facts, don't add your own subjective speculation to the situation you see, this will cause interference to the army, and when the time comes, it will be a big sin to delay the fighter." Liu Qi said to the two spies in front of him.

"General, we are convicted, please punish the general!" The two spies said to Liu Qi.

Liu Qi waved his hand and said: "Nian is a first-time offender, this time I will let you go, if there is a next time, it will not be such a fluke, now seize the time to investigate again, the army continues to move forward." ”

Liu Qi released all the spies to investigate the traces of the Jin army, but he did not expect that the Jin army had quietly inserted himself into the position of his flank by taking advantage of the night, it was just a cautious and cautious character cultivated by years of marching and fighting.

By the time Liu Qi led the army to the location of the Jin army's camp, the Jin army had already reached the edge of the primeval forest, as long as they took a step further and entered the primeval forest, it would be like what Wanyan Zongbi said, that is, the dragon entered the sea, and it was impossible for the Song army to pursue them.

In the camp of the Jin army, Liu Qi touched the already cold kettle, shook his head and said: "According to this time calculation, the Jin army should have been gone for at least two hours, and we can't catch up for two hours." ”

"Report, General, has the southeast discovered the direction in which the Jin army fled?" A soldier ran in and reported to Liu Qi.
