"Master Hou, there is a stream ahead, I can conclude that Chen Jingxuan and the others have rested there temporarily!" Pan Zhigang urged the horse to rush back to the army that was temporarily resting, stretched out his hand and pointed to the side and reported: "In addition, more than a dozen rebels have been captured, and they haven't woken up yet!" It looks like it was left behind by the rebels when they fled! ”

"Ask for any news?" Li Xiaofeng urged the horse to take a few steps forward, glanced at the rebels who were being escorted from the side, and asked Pan Zhigang.

"No, I fell asleep after I said I came! I don't know what happened later, and then I was caught by our army! Pan Zhigang shook his head helplessly and replied with a pout.

When the captives were escorted to the horses, Lin Feng frowned and looked at them, and then waved his hand at Pan Zhigang and ordered: "Send another two hundred people to explore the road and inspect all possible traces!" ”

"Yes! Master Hou! Pan Zhigang nodded in response, and when he was about to turn the horse's head, he paused slightly, raised his head towards the group of captives, and asked in a low voice: "What about these captives?" ”

"Song Mu! Over to you! Lin Feng turned his head to Li Xiaofeng's henchman Song Mu and commanded, then he no longer looked at the captives who suddenly raised their faces full of despair, lightly stepped on the horses twice, and shouted in a deep voice: "Go!" Keep chasing! ”

After chasing until noon, the sky gradually became gloomy, and even the wind blowing on the faces began to gradually mix with a hint of coolness, and the sky began to have small strands of dark clouds gathering. Lin Feng on horseback couldn't help frowning and cursed in a low voice: "Damn it!" What are you afraid of! Looks like it's going to change! ”

"What does this god want to do?!" Li Xiaofeng also noticed the change in the sky, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "If this really changes the sky, let alone chasing and killing Chen Xiao'er!" I'm afraid it's hard to find even traces! ”

"What the hell! really responded to Hou Ye's original words! Pan Zhigang also complained on horseback, looking up at the sky from time to time, only to see that the clouds in the sky were rapidly converging at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he couldn't help but be deeply worried: "But don't rain!" If it rains, it's really hard to chase it anymore! ”

"Rumble...

As soon as Pan Zhigang's words fell, a dull thunderclap sounded in everyone's ears, although the sound was not loud enough, but it was deep and dull enough. Lin Feng couldn't help but let out a long sigh, slowly raised his arm to stop everyone's advance, and after urging the horse to turn around in place for a few times, he frowned and fell into deep thought, whether to continue to chase or return to the army.

"Yes, yes."

A rapid crisp sound of horses' hooves came from the front, which also pulled Lin Feng back to reality from his contemplation, and the rest of the people also looked at the person in front of them.

There were five people here, all of whom were sent out by Pan Zhigang to run the Thunder Pioneer Regiment, and along the way as scouts to explore the road, one person and two horses, taking turns to ride, without stopping at all.

When the leader was still about ten meters away from the army, he began to pull the reins in a hurry, and at the same time reported loudly: "Master Hou! Five miles ahead, traces of the rebels were found, but they were very scattered, and they were going in several directions, and it was difficult to determine the correct direction of the rebel general Chen Jingxuan's escape! ”

"Hmm... I know! Lin Feng replied softly, and then fell into contemplation again, at this time, the thunder coming from the sky became more and more frequent, this was what made Lin Feng the most difficult. If you continue to pursue, you will definitely be hindered by the heavy rain, and it is very likely that you will not gain anything, after all, the heavy rain will make the roads muddy, and it will be impossible to find the footprints of the rebels. But if you give up directly returning to Yazhou, it is a bit too regrettable, after all, it is only one step away from complete success. In Lin Feng's opinion, if Chen Jingxuan was not captured this time, it could basically be said that this battle would be a failure, after all, the target was Chen Jingxuan, not a small Yazhou City.

Seeing that Lin Feng hadn't given an order for a long time, although Li Xiaofeng was a little anxious in his heart, he also understood that Lin Feng was in a dilemma, so he gave Pan Zhigang a special look, but he didn't expect Pan Zhigang to pretend not to see it at all, and then turned his head directly to the side, not paying attention to Li Xiaofeng's understanding at all.

In desperation, Li Xiaofeng had no choice but to come forward in person, and after urging the miscellaneous war horse to get closer to Lin Feng, he first looked at the expression on Lin Feng's face, and then tentatively proposed: "Brother-in-law, why don't we chase after it first?" ”

"General Xiaofeng! It looks like it's going to rain! Hearing this, without waiting for Lin Feng to speak, Pan Zhigang urged him to step forward, frowning and whispering in opposition: "It hasn't rained recently, in case this rain is said by Hou Ye again, for several days, then our army will lose more than it gains!" After all, the brothers have been chasing for so long, and they are tired enough! What's more, we simply don't have enough dry food for two days. ”

Without waiting for Pan Zhigang to finish speaking, Li Xiaofeng glared at the other party viciously, and was already a little depressed that Pan Zhigang ignored him just now, so he immediately interrupted the other party's view and retorted in a deep voice: "Pan Xianxian! Now is a good time to capture Chen Xiao'er, you don't know, right? Don't I understand what you said? But this opportunity was lost, if Chen Xiaoer escaped to Jiazhou! When our army attacks Jiazhou again, I'm afraid there will be more casualties, right?! ”

Although he felt that Li Xiaofeng was a little strong, Pan Zhigang still gave up and continued to argue with the other party after thinking about it, because Li Xiaofeng's last sentence was too heavy, and Pan Zhigang did not dare to take that responsibility.

If you attack Jiazhou again, I'm afraid there will be more casualties, right?

Lin Feng was also deeply attracted by this sentence, he had clearly experienced the harm of war, even when he left Yazhou the day before, the chaos in the city still appeared in his mind from time to time. Because of one person, tens of thousands of people were killed and injured, and it also affected the people of the whole city and even countless Datang families.

In this regard, Lin Feng also felt deep pressure, this responsibility was too great. Perhaps, after the victory, not only will no one hold themselves accountable, but there will be more people joining the Feng family army, and the court will also give the Feng family army more rewards. But those innocent dead and wounded in the war, who will take care of their feelings, who will take care of their second life, and who will take care of their families.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng's gaze suddenly became firm, and he shouted in a deep voice: "The soldiers are divided into three ways, Pan Zhigang, Li Xiaofeng, and I, each lead a team of soldiers and horses, and pursue the enemy army separately!" ”

"Master Hou! But think about it! In a hurry, Pan Zhigang hurriedly stopped, and then added in a worried whisper: "Could the rebels caught just now be the bait deliberately left by the other party!" Although the rebels don't have any supplies, our army won't last long! ”

Lin Feng's body was shocked when he was about to set off, and he suddenly remembered the news he had just learned after catching the prisoner, Chen Jingxuan and his group only had three or four hundred people left, and they were all exhausted! Although it should have been like this in Lin Feng's consciousness, at this time, Pan Zhigang suddenly said it, but he had to make Lin Feng think more.

"That's it." After pondering for a long time, Lin Feng secretly gritted his teeth, but still gave the order to continue the pursuit: "Continue to chase!" If you lose any trace of the rebels' escape, return to the army at once, and we will meet where we found the traces in front! If there is a situation, send a fast horse to report back as soon as possible! Wait for the other two teams to pick up quickly! Don't go it alone! ”
