In addition, Gao Shun also carried a large amount of grain and grass baggage this time, just to cope with the previous situation, as a reserve and logistical supply for Ling Hu and Pang Ying, in order to support the needs and strong backing of the two cavalry units for long-distance attacks.

According to the report of Tanma, Gao Shun's 10,000 heavy infantry carrying a large amount of baggage had left Guangyuan County fifty miles away, and continued to advance in the direction of Wanmuling, fifty miles, which is not very far, so a large group of iron cans and heavy logistics materials, their speed is already fast.

This is a big piece of fat, if you can annihilate these heavy infantry, then Guangyuan County is really at your fingertips, but in the face of such an iron hedgehog Yuan Fang, Shi Ping and Yuqing have no good way, hard fighting, absolutely can't beat, Yuan Fang and Shi Ping are light horses, and there are no heavy weapons, it is difficult to break through the opponent's defense and annihilate with bows and knives alone, it is just an unrealistic fantasy.

But just let them go, Yuan Fang was very unwilling, once they were allowed to flee back to the county town, I am afraid that it would be difficult to have such an opportunity in the future.

The result of the discussion between Yuan Fang, Shi Ping and Yuqing was to wait, wait for Gao Shun to go farther, the farther away from Guangyuan City, the better, so that once the war starts, even if the defenders of Guangyuan City want to rescue, they will not be able to reach it, and it will not be easy to eat this centaur, it may take a long time, the farther away they are from Guangyuan City, the lower the possibility of escaping back, in addition, Yuan Fang's side also needs to prepare, prisoners of war and wounded need to be sent back to the rear, arrow feathers need to be replenished, war horses need to rest, and there are many, many things that take time, now, It's a race against time.

That night, Yuan Fang and his entourage returned to Wanmuling for repairs, Shi Ping sent a thousand cavalry to send the prisoners and wounded to the garrison outside Yuhong County, and Yuqing sent 2,000 female soldiers to disperse and clear the remnants of Pang Ying's command between Wanmuling and Guangyuan City, as far as possible to prevent the rest of Gao Shun's troops from contacting, and at the same time, closely monitor Gao Shun's every move. Of course, it was Yuan Fang or Yuqing who was bored and didn't think that the news of Ling Hu and Pang Ying's defeat could be hidden, and they did it because of time, so they delayed as much as possible.

Gao Shun's heavy infantry legion not only has bulky heavy infantry, but also light scouts and scouts, as well as scouts who are good at stealth, which is a must-have for a mature legion.

The women's hard work was not in vain, and the night of time suppressed the reconnaissance range of the other party's horse scouts, and almost cut off Gao Shun's contact with the outside world, although this made Gao Shun suspicious, and he was also a little worried about Ling Hu and Pang Ying, who had not been able to contact, but he didn't care too much, he was similar to Ling Hu and Pang Ying for many years, and he had fought side by side many times, he believed in the strength of Ling Hu and Pang Ying, even if the enemy had an ambush, it would not be that the two messengers did not escape.

Gao Shun was very confident in Pang Ying and the two, that night, in order to catch up with the pace of the two almost did not rest, and hurried overnight, until early the next morning, a dozen remnants of Pang Ying's team evaded many sieges and interceptions and finally saw Gao Shun, Gao Shun still found it difficult to believe that Pang Ying would make such a low-level mistake and lead to the destruction of 10,000 light cavalry.

Gao Shun immediately ordered the troops to be repaired in situ and stand by, and sent a horse scout to investigate in the direction of Wanmuling, those remnants of the letter because the previous battle was too tragic and chaotic, they only saw Pang Ying with a lot of people to break out of the encirclement, and it was not clear that Pang Ying had been captured, and it was even more unclear what the situation was on Ling Hu's side, so Gao Shun did not immediately withdraw to Guangyuan City, holding on to the last glimmer of hope and waiting for the return of Pang Ying and Ling Hu, at least, even if the 20,000 army was gone, his two brothers should be able to escape, At least that's what Gao Shun thinks.

Gao Shun's Tanma also has hundreds of people together, and their strength together should not be underestimated, at least the ten-person squad of female soldiers is not an opponent, the two sides chose to retreat as soon as they came into contact with the female soldiers, of course, the retreat is also temporary, when the female soldiers distributed everywhere were ordered to gather together, the comparison of the strength of the two sides changed, and the two cavalry composed of five hundred people can be said to be able to capture the three hundred scouts under Gao Shun, not to mention anything else, the armor of the female soldiers is the most sophisticated in the Eastern Saint Empire, and the weapons are the sharpest, Coupled with a large number of crossbows and bows and arrows, and the mature battle formation, Gao Shun's scout cavalry is definitely not an opponent.

Gao Shun's scouts knew this, they were used to going alone, and the battle formation was not good at cooperating, in the face of such a strong enemy, they did not go to death, they scattered in a hurry, their task was not to destroy the enemy, but to investigate. The enemy fled without a fight, and the female soldiers were blindfolded at that time, and they were at a loss for a while, and when they reacted, the other party had already run away, and the two officers who led the team discussed it and decided to divide the troops again, but this time each team was expanded to a hundred people, so as to ensure the safety of their own soldiers.

To tell the truth, if the two sides are facing each other, the female soldiers do not have the slightest fear, but if they fight alone, the female soldiers may not be the opponents of those scouts even if their armor and weapons are excellent, after all, the professions are different, the scouts are good at personal force and observation, and the female soldiers are good at the battle formation.

Wanmuling, Yuqing, who got the news, immediately made a decision, and also sent all the scouts to meet the enemy, blocking along the way, and the reconnaissance troops of both sides wrestled.

Gao Shun didn't move, and Yuan Fang was also happy, just so he used this opportunity to exercise the female soldiers' adaptability.

A whole morning has passed, the news continues to come back, it can be said that the good news is frequent, the female soldiers scouts are overwhelming, and there are cavalry cooperation, and nearly half of the opponent's peers were killed and captured in one morning, of course, the female soldiers are not without losses, there is a ten-person squad wiped out, and there are some scattered scouts who were shot or killed by sneak attacks, and even a few people are missing, these losses are in Yuan Fang's expectations, and they are also within the range of bearing, but Yuan Fang is still distressed when he gets these news, But these are necessary, they have not been stained with blood, they have not experienced a life and death crisis, female soldiers will never become elites, to put it harshly, they are not qualified soldiers, at least, they must also feel the atmosphere of the battlefield.

The battle between the two sides continued, until the evening of the same day, Gao Shun's exploration horses were almost wiped out, and Yuqing ordered the female scouts to return to the camp for repairs, and Shi Ping's reconnaissance did not take over, continuing to suppress the opponent's reconnaissance range and block the communication channel.

Gao Shun waited for a whole day in the Lion Mountain, but he didn't get any news for a long time, and the people and horses sent out were like stones sinking into the sea without any news, and Gao Shun waited more and more anxiously, the more anxious and impatient, and the more uneasy he became.
