Chapter 737: Continue the pursuit

At the fifth watch of the next day, the soldiers of the Han Dynasty had already been assembled, although it was an army of 30,000 people, but the array was neat and silent.

"Let's go." Liu He whispered an order, and then this order was also whispered by the heralds everywhere, and for a while, the 30,000 troops were divided into four roads, marching in a neat pace, heading towards the direction of the joint camp.

The left army is led by Ma Chao, with Diao Yue'e, Li Tong, Li Yan and other generals, and the right army is led by Xu Huang, with Wang Yanzhang and Wang Yanlong under his command.

Xun You led Ma Tie, Xue Jinlian and others, and led the remaining 6,000 people to the middle of the Qiang camp and the Turkic camp, where they built defenses to defend against the Qiang army when the Han army launched a surprise attack.

However, after Xun You led the army to the predetermined location, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, because it was already dawn at this time, but he could hardly hear any sound from the Qiang barracks in front of him.

Xun You was very strange in his heart, but he didn't dare to be careless, he used his virtual and real skills to investigate, but found that there was not the slightest murderous aura within a few miles around.

"This, what the hell is going on? Could it be that the enemy troops have withdrawn? Shouldn't it be so fast? Is there a capable man in the enemy's army? Xun You was very surprised in his heart, but he was also afraid that the enemy army would have some strange people to avoid detection, so he still had a cautious attitude in his heart, and sent scouts to carefully investigate, until he confirmed that there was no doubt before letting them come back to report.

However, even so, only half an hour later, the scout reported: "Mr. Qiyu, after careful investigation, the brothers have now completely confirmed that the camp of the Qiang people is empty, and many materials in the village have been discarded, and it seems that they are in a hurry. ”

Xun You was silent for a moment, and then ordered to visit in the direction of the Turkic camp.

After only a stick of incense, a scout came to report that he had met Hu Che'er, a general sent by the Son of Heaven. As soon as Xun You heard this, he knew that something must be wrong, and hurriedly ordered Hu Che'er to be invited in.

"The last general Hu Che'er has seen Xun Xiang." Since Liu He stipulates that the three high-ranking officials are all prime ministers, Xun You is now the Zhongshu Order, the number one in Zhongshu Province, naturally the prime minister, and the head of all the prime ministers, so even if Hu Che'er is the commander of Liu He's close guards, he is naturally respectful when he sees Xun You.

"No need to be polite, I don't know what is the important matter of General Hu's coming? Could it be that the Son of Heaven has some orders? Xun You was not polite, and asked straight to the point.

"Exactly, the Son of Heaven sent people to explore the Turkic camp, and found that the Turkic camp was empty, and suspected that someone had seen through the plan of the Son of Heaven, so the last general sent to ask, what is the situation of the Qiang camp now?" Hu Che'er's face was serious, and he said quickly to Xun You.

"The Qiang camp is also empty, in my opinion, this matter may not be the enemy's understanding of the Son of Heaven's plan, perhaps the enemy army has a capable person, accurately judged the current situation, and expected that our army will definitely come to fight, so retreat overnight."

"I see, the Son of Heaven asked the last general to tell Xun Xiang that if this happens in the Qiang camp, let Xun Xiang immediately lead the army to meet with the army of the Son of Heaven, and then make a decision."

"No, obey the will of the Son of Heaven." Xun You hurriedly agreed respectfully, and at the same time immediately ordered, and the army quickly rushed in the direction where the original Turkic camp was located.

Not long after, Xun You's army joined Liu He's army.

"Your Majesty, I really didn't expect the enemy army to retreat overnight, and we were so busy." At the military meeting, Diao Yue'e said with a sigh with regret on her face.

"Not necessarily, at least aren't we already occupying the land here?" Liu He smiled lightly, and then said: "The enemy army retreats, and we recover the land, isn't this the result we want?" ”

"But the enemy has only retreated, not been defeated, and I believe that they will definitely return later." Diao Yue'e sighed softly with a sad look on her face.

However, Liu He smiled and said: "Therefore, we must continue to lead the army to chase and kill the enemy army and catch them by surprise." ”

"But no one knows if there is an ambush ahead? What if this is a trick of the enemy? Diao Yue'e was still a little worried and continued.

But seeing Liu He smiled: "You can rest assured about this, now the enemy army is retreating in the direction of Guzang non-stop, and there is no ambush." ”

"How could Your Majesty know so clearly?" Diao Yue'e asked rhetorically, and then realized that she had said something too much, and suddenly looked embarrassed.

Liu He waved his hand and said with a smile: "I have my own means to find out the truth. ”

However, Liu He didn't explain what means he had, it wasn't that he didn't want to explain, he really had no way to explain, could he say that he used the system "Golden Knife Holy Mother" to sneak into the front dozens of miles ahead with the situation of chips?

Since the system has its own body, it can leave its body in the form of a chip, and then sneak into other places to investigate intelligence like Nanhua Laoxian, but in this way, it will not be able to cause combat effectiveness, so Liu He has also sent the system to reconnoiter the enemy situation many times after this, and the last time Li Cunxiao was killed, it was the system that tracked and secretly filmed the whole process, which made Liu He know so much, and used these to kill Li Cunxin.

This time, it was found that the enemy had withdrawn and notified Xun You in time, and later found out that there was no ambush along the road, and the enemy army was evacuating in the direction of Guzang, which was also a systematic handiwork.

It's just that Liu He regrets it very much now, he didn't expect the enemy army to retreat, and he didn't send a system to investigate the enemy situation in advance, otherwise, if he had known that the enemy army was retreating, he could have taken advantage of the enemy's retreat to lead the army to chase and kill, and he would not have the current passive situation.

"Since Your Majesty has said it, then this matter should be certain, please give your Majesty an order, the last general is willing to lead a large army to hunt down the enemy army."

Diao Yue'e had a fighting intent on her face, without the slightest reserve of a girl, and said to Liu He.

At this time, Ma Chao and others were not far behind, and they asked for battle.

Seeing this, Liu He said with a smile: "The generals listened to the order, except for Xun Gongda's army and my army, the other two roads are still in accordance with the previous array, chasing and killing the enemy, when it is dark, be sure to advance a hundred miles, meet outside the pioneer town a hundred miles away, if there are those who do not arrive, they will be dealt with according to military law, I don't know if all Aiqing can do it?" ”

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the end will definitely be done." All the generals were excited, and they all said loudly.
