Chapter 688
The Di people fled all the way, and Fu Hong's wit temporarily freed them from danger, and they stopped after about two hours of travel and nearly two hundred miles. Fu Hong gasped and looked at the soldiers and horses behind him, but he didn't seem to react yet.
"Chief, what's going on? We tried so hard to snatch Ran Min's war horse, but we ......"
"Shut up!" Fu Hong scolded angrily.
In fact, Fu Hong didn't figure out what was going on! His plan is still the same, and the plan of self-proclaimed is seamless, and 30,000 war horses can almost be said to be in his pocket, but at the last moment, there was an accident.
"Are there pursuers catching up?" Fu Hong asked.
"If you turn around, you won't find any pursuers for the time being!" The subordinate answered.
"What a hell of a life!" Fu Hong was furious, dismounted, and commanded his subordinates: "Send out the horses!" Take a break before you go! ”
"Yes......"
Fu Hong poured himself a sip of wine, still thinking about the whole thing in his heart, could it be that Ran Min saw through his conspiracy? No! Before and after, he mobilized more than 10,000 people and launched dozens of sneak attacks on the entire Ran Wei's territory, which had already made Ran Min anxious and chaotic. On the other hand, according to the information obtained by Tanma, half of the defenders of the racecourse were also transferred to Anyang to garrison, in such a situation, why are there soldiers and horses ambushed in the racecourse.
"Could it be that Ran Min really saw through my plan?" Fu Hong couldn't help but muttered to himself.
"Chief, what's next? We've spent a lot of time planning this matter for two months, so are we going back like this? The subordinate asked.
"Where are we now?" Fu Hong looked around, frowned slightly, and said, "Why does this place look a little familiar?" ”
"Chief, this is about thirty miles northwest of Xiangguo, the last time the alliance with the Murong clan attacked Ran Min, it was in this place!"
"I didn't expect to revisit the old place!" Fu Hong stood up, looked around, and said quite unwillingly: "That's right! left like this, Lao Tzu was really a little unwilling! ”
Fu Hong thought about it, and suddenly had an idea, and said, "Let's go south now!" ”
"Heading south?" The subordinate asked.
"That's right!" Fu Hong said, stepped on his war horse, and said to his subordinates: "Ran Min must have thought that I would retreat to the north at this time, but I did the opposite!" ”
"But going south, apart from Yecheng, what else can be our goal? Yecheng is heavily guarded, and we have no chance at all! ”
"Use your brain!" Fu Hong raised his hand and slapped it on the man's head and said, "Can Lao Tzu be stupid enough to attack Yecheng!" ”
"Boss ......"
"Heading south, there's still a place worth visiting!" Fu Hong pulled the reins of the horse and said.
"Where?"
"Liyang!" Fu Hong smiled deceitfully and said, "A month ago, Ran Min just dispatched 10,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Liyang! Where there is grain and grass, there are war horses! It's worth a trip! ”
......
Zhu Song and his men occupied the important place, from dark until dawn, but there was no trace of the Di people. At this moment, a fast horse burst out of a forest and appeared in the valley in the moonlight.
"Commander, someone's coming!" Wang Chong said to Zhu Song.
Zhu Song lay behind a boulder, poked his head out to look at it, and asked suspiciously, "Why is it just one person?" ”
"It seems like it's still ours!" Wang Chong said to Zhu Song.
As soon as he finished speaking, the man suddenly stopped, and the sound of stirrups colliding at the foot of the mountain was heard.
"Three long and two short, it's our people!" Wang Chong confirmed.
"Check it out! What's going on! Zhu Song commanded.
Zhu Song and the others roped down and asked, "Is the person who came Gou Ying's subordinates?" ”
"Lord Commander! The general ordered the lowly to come and deliver the message, but the Di people did not retreat from the route we expected! ”
"What?" Zhu Song asked, "Where did Fu Hong go?" ”
"To the north! It may have passed the boundaries of Xiangguo now! ”
"Where is your general now?"
"Pursuing with troops!"
Zhu Song couldn't help but hesitate, and Wang Chong said: "Commander, the north of Xiangguo is no longer our territory, continue to chase, I'm afraid that the Di people will have an ambush, according to the opinion of the last general, it's better to stop here!" ”
Zhu Song nodded and said, "I think so too!" ”
The messenger was stunned for a moment and asked, "You mean, don't chase anymore?" But General Gou is still leading people to pursue the enemy! This ......"
Zhu Song glanced at Wang Chong and said, "You are familiar with the terrain here, you take a few people to explore the road and track down the traces of the Di people, and I will take people to follow!" ”
"The last general commands!"
Zhu Song said to the messenger again: "Go back and report to your general, don't blindly pursue until you find out the situation of the Di people!" Since Fu Hong didn't fall for the trick, it shows that this person is scheming! Don't be careless! ”
"Subordinates remember! Leave! ”
Gou Ying led people to chase all night, and did not stop until about dawn, but they never saw any trace of the Di people, and at this time, they had chased out for hundreds of miles.
"It's strange, why have I been chasing for so long, and I still haven't seen any trace of the Di people!" Gou Ying couldn't help but wonder.
The subordinates on the side gasped and said, "General, could it be that the Di people didn't go in this direction at all?" ”
"Impossible! If they retreat north, they will only go this way! ”
"It doesn't make sense! We chased all night, no matter how bad it was, we should leave some clues along the way! How could it be ......"
Gou Ying seemed to suddenly understand something, and immediately ordered his subordinates: "Go to the front and take a look, are there traces of soldiers and horses walking by?" ”
"Yes!"
Several cavalrymen rushed out, not very fast, and checked all the way, and one of them simply jumped off his horse and carefully looked at the ground along the way. After about half a pillar of incense, several people came back and reported: "General Qiqi, there is no trace of cavalry walking in front, not even a horse's hoof print!" ”
"Oops!" Gou Ying hurriedly turned the horse's head, looked behind him, and said, "I've won the plan!" It seems that the Di people really didn't go from here! ”
The subordinate asked, "But you just said that if they retreat north, it will only be from this road!" ”
"That means they didn't walk through here at all! We're going in the wrong direction! Gou Ying said and asked his subordinates: "Has the person who sent the message to Zhu Song come back?" ”
"It shouldn't be so fast!"
"Turn back!" Gou Ying commanded his subordinates.
Although Gou Ying did not know which way Fu Hong retreated with his men, it was certain that they were chasing in the wrong direction.
Halfway through, the messenger rushed over and shouted, "General! ”
The subordinate hurriedly asked, "Where is Zhu Song's wolf cavalry!" ”
"Return to the general!" The person who reported the news held on, and reported: "Commander Zhu feels that it may be deceitful to blindly chase down, but he said that he will come to meet you!" ”
Gou Ying couldn't help but sigh: "Zhu Song, this kid is smarter than me!" Sure enough, he was right! ”
"General, what should we do next?"
"First explain the current situation to Your Majesty, let's follow the road we came, and we will definitely find traces of the Di people!" After speaking, Gou Ying commanded again: "Continue on your way!" ”
Running out less than twenty miles, a familiar figure appeared in their sight, and Gou Ying's subordinates shouted: "General! It's a wolf rider! Commander Zhu's subordinates! ”
"Go and ask!"
His subordinates rode up to meet him, and after some exchange with the man, the wolf cavalry captain who reported the news turned his head and left, and his subordinates came back to report to Gou Yingyu: "General, the wolf cavalry captain has found the traces of the Di people and has gone to chase them!" ”
"What? Discovered by Zhu Song? Gou Ying was a little surprised.
"It was discovered by the kid named Wang Chong under Commander Zhu! It is said that near the northwest of Xiangguo, thirty miles, a large number of horseshoe prints were found, and they went south. ”
"Thirty miles northwest of Xiangguo?" Gou Ying thought about it for a moment and said, "Isn't that the place where you fought with Zhuhu during the Battle of Xiangguo?" ”
"That's right! At that time, His Majesty took us to guard the slopes of the mountains, there were roads to go on the north and south sides, and to the west were mountains, and it seemed that the Di people were going south! ”
"Fuck it!" Gou Ying was extremely annoyed and said, "Chase! ”
