Gao Ran took the direct 50,000 troops of Qingzhou, and 50,000 people to escort the baggage into the Great Plain of Hebei to pursue Pan Feng.

At that time, he was ambitious, and he had absolute confidence in catching up with Pan Feng and killing Pan Feng.

He has 50,000 soldiers, and he is still a well-known strong army in the world, Qingzhou soldiers, while the enemy only has 20,000 soldiers, and he is still a miscellaneous soldier of a small warlord.

Strong soldiers against the rabble, that is simply easy and free.

He is the third of the four famous generals in Hebei, and the other party is a man named Pan Feng, Pan Feng? I haven't heard of it, so I guess it's that Lu Peng's little warlord really doesn't have a general, so he uses a donkey as a horse.

Pursuit? Relaxed, surrounded by counties and towns in front, he just caught up easily in the back, and then it was an easy battle, and then he took Pan Feng's head to the lord to receive the reward.

The task is as simple as that? It's as simple as that.

But the situation seems to be a bit unexpected, the first unusual thing is that Kawama is too Shoutian Ji, and he did not send men and horses to intercept Pan Feng everywhere as he imagined, but made turtles with shrunken heads one by one, and the turtles retreated in their respective castles, never fighting, and let the enemy come and go on this great plain.

This made Gao Ran very disdainful of this famous general in Hejian: "It's a pity that Tian Ji, who usually looks ambitious, secretly constantly expands his strength, thinking about being unique in Yuan Shao's group and being a small warlord, but he was frightened by the rabble of another small warlord, and he didn't dare to fight. ”

Well, since you don't dare to fight, then I won't need your straw bag, I will fight this battle, and you will be saved from my military merits when the time comes. ”

Immediately after that, Gao Ran discovered another unexpected thing, and that was the speed of the enemy's march.

The enemy's march was indeed too fast, and they rode in a kind of four-wheeled carriage that they had never seen before, and marched more than 100 miles every day, sometimes 200 miles, which was not at all something that a team like their own could keep up with.

This makes Gao Ran very painful, how can he fight a decisive battle if he can't catch the enemy? So I had to write to the shrunken turtle Tian Ki, and order him to send troops to intercept him immediately, you don't dare to fight the enemy directly, but you just need to entangle him, slow down their march, and wait for my army to arrive.

As a result, Tian Ji replied, saying that he had the responsibility to defend the land, and he must not let any county town be lost, so he must defend the county seat and not go out to fight.

At the same time, in the palindrome, he also gave Gao Ran a detailed introduction to the combat effectiveness of Lü Peng's army, and kindly advised him to be cautious when marching and pay attention to the enemy's return rifles.

For such kind advice, Gao Ran thought that this was definitely Tian Ji for his cowardice and finding a ridiculous excuse, so of course he sneered at it and ignored it.

Since Tian Ji did not cooperate, then this war could only be completed independently.

So Gao Ran kept urging his men to chase after Pan Feng. Or in my heart, I still hope that Pan Feng can muster up the courage to have an upright decisive battle with himself to end this protracted chasing me.

As a result, the opponent Pan Feng did not dare to fight with him at all, he really ran away from the wind, or he simply fled without seeing this sentence, there was no way, for this kind of timid and non-fighting enemy, he had to lower his head and chase after him bravely.

Chasing, chasing, the two armies are on this great plain, you chase me, time passes little by little, Gao Ran found that he took Wan Minfu and baggage to catch up with this speed is really not up. So I wrote to Tian Ji again, if you don't dare to go out of the city, it's just a matter of blocking the enemy, so you can provide me with food and grass along the way, let me advance lightly, and pursue the enemy, this request is not too much.

As a result, in Tian Ji's opinion, this requirement is very excessive, you are a Qingzhou soldier, why should I provide grain and grass in the river, which is not in line with the system.

The reason why Tian Ji said this is that the factors of the small group are at fault, and at the same time, because of this war, Tian Ji innocently lost more than 10,000 horses, which seriously weakened his own strength, and provided you with 100,000 horses and horses during the war, which is definitely an astronomical amount, and his own finances are already embarrassed, mainly supported by his own family assets.

So he didn't even give a reply, and just sat there and pretended to be deaf and dumb.

This time Gao Lan was embarrassed, his own army of 50,000, dragging a heavy army of grain and grass, chasing the fast-moving four-wheeled carriage, the result was that at the beginning, the distance between himself and the enemy was only thirty or fifty miles, and then slowly became a hundred miles, and slowly became two hundred miles, and now, it has reached a desperate distance of 500 miles.

And now, Gao Lan, who has been pursuing for half a month, has to stop the pursuit, because the grain and grass he brought has been exhausted, and the soldiers are exhausted, so he has to prepare to stop in the south of Deng County to let the soldiers rest and recuperate, return to Wenqingzhou, and let Qingzhou escort the grain and grass to come over to replenish themselves.

With the support of the soldiers, he climbed off the horse with difficulty, slapped the loess on his body, and for a while there was a psychedelic feeling of smoke and dust.

Seeing that the soldiers who were ordered to rest and recuperate did not dig trenches, build fences, or set up tents one by one, but fell directly into the soil one by one, Gao Ran was no longer interested in shouting and arranging.

It's really too hard, Gao Ran also knows that the army lacks marching training in peacetime, and the daily march of fifty miles is an impossibility in other armies, and it is already a commendable thing to achieve in his own Qingzhou soldiers, not to mention this half-month march? It's already hard for his subordinate soldiers.

Sitting on the unloaded saddle, he took the water bladder handed over by the pro-soldier and drank it violently for a while, finally suppressed the anxiety and dry fire in his heart, handed the water bladder to the pro-soldier, tilted his head and asked, "Did I send the letter just now?" ”

One of his soldiers looked into the distance, and saw the messenger with a red flag on his back mounting, and replied: "I am on my horse, and I will set off at once." ”

Gao Ran breathed a sigh of relief, and was just about to unarm, when at this time, a rider came to the dust: "Report-"

Gao Ran stood up suddenly, because he saw three red flags planted on the back of the messenger - this urgent delivery must have an urgent military situation.
