"Hurry, hurry!" Wang Kui ordered: "Throw away all the baggage, only the weapons and armor, and the rest!" Speed up! ”

In fact, there is no need for him to say this, the Hanzhou soldiers have already done this.

Marching in the mountains, not as big as the post road, are all small roads, often only allow one person to walk on the narrow road, the slope is many bends and sharp, the wheelbarrow used in the towns under the jurisdiction of the Sichuan Department is very difficult to walk, let alone the two-wheeled vehicle.

The pursuers were behind again, and Wang Kui simply gave up the wheelbarrow, and ordered each soldier to prepare only the necessary ordnance, carrying it on his shoulder, and throwing the rest if he could.

Saving your life.

Look at the smoke and dust on the road, there are at least thousands of people, with Wang Kui's thousands of people, the hundred-man team that bullied and bullied Mongolia is acceptable, and it won't be able to play big.

Under the leadership of Wang Kui, the Hanzhou soldiers plunged headlong into the vast mountains.

Drow Mahan stroked his ass to the bottom of the hill where he had suffered.

Looking at the corpses of the Mongols who had their heads cut off by the Song army before they could come up from the mountain, Zolmahan's face turned black and gray like the dirt on the ground.

After turning around the hill and following the direction of the retreat of the Hanzhou soldiers, when Zhang Rongzu returned to the top of the hill, Zhuo Ermahan was sitting on the rock where Wang Kui had sat at the beginning and waiting for him to come.

"They all ran away, and judging from the footprints, they were entering the mountains." Zhang Rongzu hugged his fists and reported: "All the way are abandoned weapons, and I don't even want a pot, it seems that the Song army is in a hurry." ”

"Humph! It's for fear that we will catch up with them! Dzolmahan clenched his big hand into a fist and smashed it on the rock: "Don't delay, give the order to the whole army to pursue!" ”

"My lord, Rong Mo will say a word." Zhang Rongzu hurriedly said: "Our army is all cavalry, the mountain roads are difficult to travel, and it is not conducive to galloping horses, so it is better to divide the soldiers into two roads, all the way into the mountains, and chase with all their strength on foot; Lead the horse slowly, and then come, and if you encounter a flat and empty valley, you will ride a horse at a gallop. So you can be sure of it. ”

Zhuoer Mahan touched his chin and thought for a while, probably the corpse of the Puller soldier left in front of him gave him some concerns, so after thinking for a while, he agreed to Zhang Rongzu's proposal.

"You are the vanguard, I will let Jia Pu listen to your command, take two thousand Han troops to dismount and enter the mountain, and follow the pursuit." Zhuo Ermahan summoned another Han army Qianhu Jia Pu and ordered: "I will personally lead the rest of the soldiers and horses, follow you, and if something happens, I will notice the traces of the Song army, and I will immediately rush over." ”

He also called a Han army Qianhu Jiao Yongdao: "In addition, Jiao Yong led the Han army in his headquarters, rode horses across the outside of this mountain, let go of more exploration horses, and beware of the Song army risking out of the forest halfway, so that the internal and external fortifications will shoot him down even if the Song army has wings!" ”

After hearing this, everyone also felt that this strategy was comprehensive, there was pursuit, interception, and response, and the Song army was like Wang Ba in an urn--- and couldn't run away.

Zhang Rongzu then worked with Jia Pu to order all the Han troops of two thousand households to dismount, carry weapons, and go into the mountains to pursue, and their horses were left to the periphery Jiao Yong to take care of.

Before leaving, Zhang Rongzu and Jia Pu secretly sent people back and forth, but not to do anything else, but to deliberately go back to the vicinity of Jianzhou, so that the people who stayed there would pay attention to the looted large number of people and property, and not lose them.

In the same way, Zhuo Ermahan and others also sent people to do the same thing, after entering Sichuan for so long, several thousand households led by Zhuo Ma Han captured a large number of slave gold and silver, these are all private property to be brought back to the grassland to make a fortune.

Everything was in order, and the brigade followed the road of the Song army in Hanzhou in an endless stream and drove into the mountains.

This mountain, belongs to the eastern Sichuan hills and mountains of the junction, the terrain from the mountain to the east of the post road gradually rises, at first shallow mounds, then low hills, more than ten miles of road, it is all tall mountains.

The mountain range belongs to the intersection of Tiefeng Mountain and Mengjiao Mountain, although the continuous mountain peaks are not as tall and steep as Xichuan, but it is not much lower, standing at the foot of the mountain, you must look up at the top of the mountain, but see the white clouds around, the trees are shady, the water mist ripples, some stone mountains are towering into the clouds, like the flat ground is high, it seems very abrupt.

Between the mountains, there are trenches and valleys, the valleys are narrow and narrow, as if they were cut out in the mountains by the gods wielding axes, there are streams that are happy, the valleys are often overgrown with grass and trees, the roots are intertwined, and many huge banyan trees that become forests are settled in the middle, once they go deep into the head are full of leaves, and even the sky cannot be seen.

These places are inaccessible except for woodcutters and hunters, and they are far away from the cities and towns, and there are few villages.

Wang Kui fled into such a mountainous area by march.

Because they were in a hurry, they didn't even find the guide, and a small number of mountain people had already hid in the deeper mountains because of the military disaster, and they couldn't find it even if they wanted to.

I could only rely on the sun, barely discerning the direction, following some bird paths that some mountain people walked out of the forest, and marched in the direction of Hezhou.

And the Mongol Han army, which pursued after them, was much simpler.

More than 1,000 people walked through the mountains, a large number of traces will be left, just follow the footprints to chase it, and the Hanzhou soldiers have walked through, invisibly opened up a road, and it is much easier to follow the road than to open the road in front.

So naturally, the distance between the Mongolian army and the Song army is slowly approaching, looking down from the sky, zooming in on this area, you will find two teams hurrying on a piece of emerald green ground, the team is along the terrain, stretched very long, like two huge earthworms, one squirming after the other, and behind them, a larger earthworm is chasing.

The pursuit of the Mongol soldiers could not be concealed, standing on any mountain, you could see the Mongols and horses of the brigade crawling at the bottom of the ditch in the distance, and the actions of the Song army were naturally unobstructed, chasing closer, and even the two sides could stand on the opposite peak, across a mountain, as if they were facing each other.

Fortunately, the Song army had a difficult road to open and walked hard, and the Han army behind was also not accustomed to the mountain road, and it was more torturous to climb the slope than to fight on horseback, and the Song army was also composed of Sichuan people, and the mountain march was much more accustomed to the Han army that grew up in the northern plains.

What's more important is that the Han soldiers and soldiers all carried a lot of things that had been looted from the east and west recently, and they didn't have time to put them in the rear, and the bits and pieces were all trophies, and they were reluctant to throw them away. The thousand households did not give the order to forcibly let the soldiers discard it, and rushed with these gold and silver objects, which was even heavier and affected the speed.

So they chased for two days in a row, although the distance was shrinking, but Zhang Rongzu's Han army never bit Wang Kui's tail, and it was not until the third day that things took a turn for the better.

Because Wang Kui is lost.

In the middle of this great mountain, he turned his head dizzy, and the lofty mountains and mountains were connected with one vein, and even if he stood on a high place, he could not distinguish between the southeast and the northwest.

Now it's time to stop cooking.
