Chapter 819: Hunt and Kill
Ju Yi quickly fled south with more than 40,000 soldiers.
Ju Yi knew that this group of rebels, once caught up, would be a massacre.
Not daring to delay, Ju Yi led people to escape, and at the same time let some of the still formed armies begin to arrange defenses, they need time now, need more time.
If they didn't have time to rest, none of them could run.
Ye Chen would not give Ju Yi a chance, and began to charge with the cavalry.
An hour later, Ye Chen caught up with their palace army and began to charge at them.
Behind the palace were 5,000 infantry, who had withdrawn from the other city gates, and because they had not been subjected to the main attack, they were still in formation, so they were sent here by Ju Yi to intercept them.
The five thousand prepared infantry did bring Ye Chen some trouble, but in front of the powerful cavalry, they only stopped them for about an hour.
"Han Sheng, immediately lead 5,000 cavalry to chase the enemy with all their might, if you encounter resistance again, you don't have to entangle, just break through." Ye Chen ordered.
Huang Zhong agreed, rode a horse and left.
These five thousand soldiers and horses would not have been able to resist Ye Chen for so long, but Ye Chen insisted on staying and destroying them.
It is worth destroying formed soldiers and horses than destroying more stragglers.
Ye Chen believed that Ju Yi didn't have many soldiers and horses left to resist them, even if they let them run forward, it would be fine.
Ye Chen's pursuit force is all cavalry, and there are infantry in the rear, so they are not afraid of not being able to catch up.
Although Ju Yi got rid of the enemy for the time being, he was not happy at all.
Looking at the chaotic group of soldiers running on the road, as long as the enemy kills them, they have no resistance at all, and no matter how many such troops there are, it is useless.
He needs time, but what he lacks most now is time.
The enemy will not give him much time.
Ju Yi knew very well that Ye Chen had been planning for a long time, with the aim of annihilating them completely.
A scattered and long line ran down the road, many with strange horror on their faces.
"Quick, block the road, or none of us will be able to run." Ju Yi ordered the soldiers to move a lot of stones and wood along the road to block the road.
He needs time now.
At the same time, Ju Yi instructed several of his generals to organize their troops while marching.
They must be organized, otherwise none of them will be able to escape.
After Ye Chen dealt with the enemies behind the hall, he set out on the road again.
Ju Yi ran all the way and did not stop to rest until the evening.
After running for a while, Ju Yicai ordered the soldiers to stop and rest, and at the same time asked several of his generals to immediately organize their troops.
In the process of escaping, 10,000 people have been organized to establish a preliminary structure.
Only a formed army can have combat effectiveness.
"General Guo, you immediately organize five thousand people to be in charge of the palace, you only need to hold out until dawn, and you can retreat after dawn." Ju Yi called one of his generals and said.
When the general surnamed Guo heard this, his face suddenly turned pale, and everyone knew that staying would be death.
But he couldn't refuse, his family was still in Yecheng.
"Yes, General." I can't refuse, I can only hope that I am lucky, and the enemy does not follow so quickly.
"General Li, you immediately organize another 10,000 people, give you two hours, and set off in two hours." Ju Yi said again.
"General Wang, there are about 20,000 people left, and they must be organized before dawn and then move forward at full speed." Ju Yi said again.
Several generals could only take orders after hearing this, as long as they didn't stay behind the palace, the possibility of them escaping was very high.
In this way, more than 40,000 people were arranged by Ju Yi.
After arranging this period, Ju Yi set off with the 10,000 troops that had been organized.
More than 40,000 people huddled together is not a good thing, and a mess is not a good thing.
Therefore, Ju Yi divided the more than 40,000 people into four parts, although the division of troops would lead to a decline in their strength, but with order, their combat effectiveness was strengthened.
These 40,000 chaotic soldiers are together, and the enemy only needs 5,000 people, and as soon as they attack, 40,000 people will immediately disperse, and they have no combat effectiveness at all.
So Ju Yi had to keep them apart.
Setting off with 10,000 people overnight, Ju Yi felt bitter in his heart, he took 100,000 soldiers and horses to kill Xiang Dai County, who would have thought that it would be like this.
Ye Chen led people to chase all the way, but the enemy did not catch up, but caught up with Huang Zhong, who was chasing the enemy in front.
"My lord, the enemy has set up a large number of obstacles on the road, seriously hindering our march." Huang Zhong said.
"This Ju Yi still has two hits, at the moment of crisis, decisively give up some soldiers and horses, delay time, otherwise he will definitely not be able to run today."
Ju Yi first asked the first dead soldier to entangle Guan Yu and open the passage, and then left five thousand soldiers and horses, which allowed him to buy a few hours.
A large number of roadblocks were set up along the way, making Ye Chen's march not fast.
When ordinary people encounter this situation, they will only collapse, but Ju Yi does not.
"Let the soldiers rest for two hours, and then continue the pursuit." Ye Chen understood that the enemy did not recover so quickly, not to mention that he still had a killer weapon.
After resting for two hours, Ye Chen led the people to continue to set off.
At this time, Ju Yi's army had also gone through two hours of rest, and the general surnamed Li had already organized 10,000 men to set off for an hour.
At the same time, General Guo, who was left behind, also organized 5,000 people and began to arrange defenses.
The remaining 20,000 generals are also being sorted out, and they can be organized before dawn.
This Ju Yi was also decisive, and after dividing the army into several parts, efficiency immediately came up, and the army was initially organized.
At this time, Ju Yi led his troops to hurry quickly, he was going to occupy a city, and only the city had a chance for them to rest and defend.
Only the city can keep them all alive.
In the field, such a collapsed army, facing the enemy, can only be slaughtered.
Ju Yi did not stop, and hurried overnight, with only a short rest on the way.
"My lord, the enemy's army was found in the front, and the number is about five thousand." The scout came back and reported.
"All charge."
Ye Chen waved his halberd and led people to start rushing and killing.
At this point, there is no need for any tactics, rushing up and then cutting down the enemy is the best tactic.
Use the most powerful strength to completely crush the enemy, and crush their confidence as well.
The cavalry roared and ran, and the ground shook with a tremble.
Although the five thousand Yuan troops that had been organized had taken a short break and made some defensive facilities, the faces of every soldier were not good at this time, and their hearts were trembling.
The cavalry bombarded and broke through the enemy's defenses with great strength.
Then it's time to kill the enemy.
This army of the enemy behind the palace that was left behind only held Ye Chen and them for three hours.
However, three hours was already quite a long time, if it weren't for their preparation and the construction of many defense facilities, Ye Chen believed that one hour would be able to solve them all, or even less.
