Although Zhu Wei was ready to use Zhang Xiu's 4,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry as the base to construct his heavy cavalry troops, there were still many problems to face.

Now most of these Xiliang iron cavalry in Zhang Xiu's army are also veterans, and many of them are Xiliang soldiers inherited by Zhang Ji from Dong Zhuo back then, and most of them are in their thirties or nearly forty.

Although they should all be veterans with rich experience, they are all a little old after all, so they can only become cavalry instructors at most in the future, but they will definitely be eliminated from the heavy armored cavalry team built by Zhu Wei in the future.

At the same time, in today's Xiliang Iron Cavalry, many of the generals and military marquis who lead the troops are also Zhang Xiu's uncles.

If they are dissatisfied and cause trouble, although Zhang Xiu can subdue them, it will also make Zhang Xiu feel embarrassed, so of course Zhu Wei has to say hello to Zhang Xiu first.

"No! The end will be subject to the decree of the Lord! ”

When Zhang Xiu heard this, although he hesitated for a moment, he finally nodded and agreed, he knew that this was also necessary, otherwise this Xiliang Iron Horse would still be branded with the Zhang family, and it could not be separated from his private soldier attributes.

"Okay, General Zhang, now that the war is still ongoing, then please go with the general to send Yuan Shu on his last journey! Hahaha! ”

Zhu Wei didn't want to say anything about the reorganization of the Liangqi camp at this time, now he was just giving Zhang Xiu a preventive shot, anyway, Zhang Xiu's loyalty was still in his seventies, and he didn't worry about him having other ideas because of this.

Therefore, Zhu Wei smiled chic in the end, and beckoned Zhang Xiu to continue to lead the troops to pursue Yuan Shu, and drove Yuan Shu to the ambush place in Quyang County, which should be the final death place of Yuan Shu.

In this way, Zhu Wei's 3,000 Baiyu battalion, Zhang Xiu's 4,000 Xiliang iron cavalry, 2,000 Huren sword riders, plus about 4,000 or 5,000 Liang cavalry battalion foot soldiers, also re-embarked on the road of pursuing Yuan Shu's army.

At this time, Yuan Shu's side really accelerated the speed of the march a lot.

After Zhu Wei and Cao Cao sent troops to intercept Yuan's post-operative army, although Yuan Shu's Chinese army still had many factors that affected the march, but under Yuan Shu's strong order, he couldn't help but speed up his pace a little, and many eunuchs and maids who couldn't walk fast were simply abandoned on the side of the road.

Although Yuan Shu is greedy for money, although he is reluctant to give up his harem beauties, heirs and children, but after all, he is more concerned about his own life, and now that Zhu Wei and Cao Cao's army have chased him behind his buttocks, they have already stabbed his chrysanthemum with a knife, how can he dare to slow down again.

At the same time, because the huge scale of the rear army's subordinate officials and dependents were dragged down, Yuan Shu also gathered a lot of troops on both wings to block the attack, so the troops he could send out to block the attack were also a lot thicker.

In this way, the army pursued by Zhu Wei and Cao Cao also slowed down the offensive a little, anyway, they were just to drive Yuan Shu's army to Quyang County.

It's just that Yang Hong, the strategist beside Yuan Shu, seems to have come up with an idea for Yuan Shu again, asking Yuan Shu to transfer the army of Lu Bu in front of him to stay behind, so that Lu Bu's army can be used as cannon fodder, but Yuan Shu's own army can be saved.

At present, the troops and horses of Lu Bu's troops led by Chen Deng have hardly encountered any interception, and after highlighting the military camp surrounded by Zhu Wei and Cao Cao, it is completely easy to march in front.

This is equivalent to Yuan Shu's army blocking Zhu Wei and Cao Cao's pursuit for them, where is there a distinction between priority and subordination, after Yang Hong pointed out the key, it naturally made Yuan Shu feel a little unhappy.

Therefore, at Yang Hong's suggestion, Yuan Shu quickly sent a military order to Chen Deng in front, asking Chen Deng's troops and horses led by Lu Bu to find a suitable place to stop and garrison, and after Yuan Shu's army passed, Lu Bu's army was responsible for blocking Zhu Wei and Cao Cao's pursuing army.

Of course, on the surface, Yuan Shu still used the excuse of letting Lu Bu's army stop and rest, and at this moment, it was already eight or nine o'clock in the night, so letting Lu Bu's army stop and rest was like taking care of Lu Bu's army.

It's just that Yuan Shu didn't tell Lu Bu's army that Zhu Wei and Cao Cao had a large army chasing after him, after all, Yuan Shu's army of nearly 60,000 or 70,000 troops is now completely passing through the area where Lu Bu's army stopped, and it is estimated that it will take a long time, which can indeed let Lu Bu's army have a good rest.

At the same time, Zhu Wei and Cao Cao's pursuers were in the rear of Yuan Shu's army, and under the barrier of Yuan Shu's army, Lu Bu's army, which was running at the forefront, did not know the situation behind.

In this way, Yuan Shu only told Chen Deng, Cheng Lian, Hao Meng, and Cao Xing the military order to block the army of Zhu Wei and Cao Cao, but asked them to temporarily hide the truth from ordinary Lu Bu soldiers.

Then after Yuan Shu's army passed, and after Zhu Wei and Cao Cao's chasing army arrived, Lu Bu's army naturally became the soldiers and horses behind the back, and it was impossible for Lu Bu's army not to do anything to block the attack.

Chen Deng, who had already thrown himself into Yuan Shu on the surface, naturally couldn't object, so he could only obey the order to stop Lu Bu's army in search of a place.

However, now Chen Deng is also responsible for introducing Yuan Shu's army into the ambush trap in Quyang County, although in Quyang County, Zhu Wei and Cao Cao's army have been ambushed in several places from Shouchun to Xuzhou, but where Yuan Shu will go, it is not completely certain, it is best to have someone lead him into the ambush circle.

Chen Deng was already tasked with this task, but now if he stayed behind and broke off, he couldn't be sure where Yuan Shu went.

Of course, Chen Deng couldn't give up the task easily, so after he stopped Lu Bu's army to rest, he took the initiative to find Yuan Shu's side, hoping to get Yuan Shu to change his instructions.

At this time, Yuan Shu was riding in a richly decorated car.

The carriage of this car looks like a gazebo, with a space of fifty or sixty square meters, and eight horses are used in front of it, like a mobile house, in which Yuan Shu can eat and drink comfortably.

It's just that such a carriage naturally travels at a speed that is not much faster, not to mention that it is necessary to ensure that Yuan Shu sits smoothly and comfortably in the car, and not to let the carriage be too bumpy.

It can only be said that Yuan Shu himself is actually the culprit who slows down his marching speed, and various other factors can only be regarded as one of the reasons.

But now, although Yuan Shu has accelerated the speed of the march, he still did not get out of the car to change horses and ride, but still wore the robe of the Son of Heaven, accompanied by several beauties on the chariot, and ate and drank under the service of the maidservant.

Only occasionally heard news from everywhere, Yuan Shu would angrily seek out the people around him to vent his anger, and had already killed several servants and maidservants who were used as punching bags by him.

This made the servants and maids who were now serving by Yuan Shu's side inevitably be a little cautious, for fear that one would not be good, so they would be caught by Yuan Shu, and directly ordered the surrounding soldiers to pull them down and cut them down.

And around Yuan Shu's car, there were also many close ministers around Yuan Shu's side, either riding horses or accompanying Yuan Shu's car, including Yuan Shu's guard general Ji Ling and his confidant Yang Hong.

Chen Deng drove to Yuan Shu's Chinese army, and after passing the inspection of the guards protecting Yuan Shu, he came to Yuan Shu's car, and Yuan Shu heard that Chen Deng was coming, and thought that Xuzhou still needed Chen Deng's support, so he let Chen Deng meet him in the car......
