Before Miao Zhi set off, he was informed that what he wanted had been taken first.

This is a dull stick, outsiders may not be able to see it, but Miao Zhu himself was really dizzy, and his head buzzed for a while before stopping.

After a cold moment, Miao Yu laughed ha, "Han Yukun is really not simple, with him guarding the back road, there is no need to worry." ”

He said to Wang Sunchen, "If this continues, if there is no Han Yukun to preside over the transfer and guard the rear in the future, I am afraid that no soldier will be willing to go into battle." ”

Wang Sunchen accompanied him and smiled: "The third brother can be civil and martial, and he is not within the reach of others." ”

At this time, the news of the victory of Fort Kono had spread throughout the army, and then to the city of Xiangzi, and the cheers of thousands of soldiers suddenly rose, like thunder, and the sky was about to fall.

The crowd celebrated the victory, and Miao Zhu and Wang Sunchen were smiling face-to-face, praising Han Gang's exploits.

At the end of the day, Wang Sunchen's face smiled sourly, and he turned his head to stare at Shi Yong, who was still standing on the side.

"Shi Yong, what are you still doing here? Why don't you hurry up and spread the news to Wang Jingluo's hands, can you afford to delay it? Wang Sunchen said a few words, jumped off the horse, and handed the reins of his mount to Shi Yong, "Hurry up, Wang Jingluo has a heavy reward waiting there!" ”

Shi Yong smiled when he heard this, kowtowed to Wang Shunchen again, said goodbye to Miao Zhu and Wang Sunchen, jumped on the horse he had just gotten, and galloped away in the direction of Hezhou City.

Seeing the messenger go away, Wang Sunchen turned back again, raised his eyebrows and asked Miao Zhu: "Eunuch, what should I do next?" ”

"Since I don't have to worry about the future, I naturally want to go back to Hezhou. If you have more strength in your hands, it will be easier to beat Mu Zheng. ”

Without the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, Miao Zhu didn't want to stay in the rear for a long time, the last battle was about to start, and if he could rush to the battlefield at the right time, he was likely to become the last chess piece to decide the battle.

Miao Zhi would not give up the last opportunity, he patted Wang Sunchen on the shoulder, "This place still depends on the royal capital to patrol you!" The more critical it is, the more cautious you must be, and don't make mistakes! ”

"Rest assured, the final general will definitely live up to the trust." Wang Sunchen bowed and lowered his gaze to the ground: "I'm afraid Wang Jingliu doesn't need your three thousand people anymore." ’

……………………

After a cheer, the Song army left the camp. Without any hindrance, the formation was set up on the battlefield yesterday.

Although it is not possible to confirm why the Song army cheered, the leaders of Mu Zheng's side can vaguely guess what went wrong.

The sneak attack on Xiangzi City and Kenuo Fort must have failed, otherwise the Song people would not be so excited. cheered inexplicably, it must have been a great victory for them to worry about the future. Mu Zheng's bronze face had all lost its blood, and his steps staggered a little.

"Our strength is still above the Song people!" A young man screamed with all his might.

But Mu Zheng's gaze swept over the generals who were clustered around him, and more than half of the clan chiefs hung their heads to avoid his gaze.

The cheers of the Song people were actually a signal to announce Mu Zheng's departure from Hezhou. The repeated defeats in front of them have made many Tibetan tribes lose confidence, and the heavy price paid to resist the invasion of the Song people has also made them endure to the extreme, and the only thing that supports them to persist is that there is still a chance to turn defeat into victory.

But now, Mu Zheng's painstakingly planned plan has still suffered a shameful failure. Now there is not even a chance of victory, except for a few of Mu Zheng's die-hard cronies, everyone else has made small calculations for their own clan.

They all heard that the emperor of the Song people gave Wang Shao a lot of empty names Xuanzha, and he could get an official by filling in the name. It was used to give it to the people of Fan who belonged to the Song Kingdom. If there is really no way, it is also a good thing to take refuge in the Song people, so you can get some rewards.

"Is the tree falling and scattered...... ' The eldest grandson of Na Luo was sad in his heart, the most difficult strategy was useless, and it was really time to reach the end of the road.

'No! Mu Zheng's eyes regained their brightness. He can entrench himself in Hezhou for decades, but will he be the waste who will collapse after a setback?

He also had the south, just across the Explet Mountain, and the many tribes that had submitted to him, and a piece of land that belonged to him. The Song people couldn't climb the Exposed Mountain, and they didn't dare to climb over the mountain that was thousands of feet high. Compared with the towering and snow-covered explicit mountains that do not melt all year round, the countless mountains around Hezhou can only be regarded as hills.

As long as he blocks the road to Minzhou, what can the Song people do with him? It can be held out until the moment when the Song people can't support it in Hehuang.

Yuan Hao's grandfather was chased by the Song people several times like a dog, and he didn't turn over after the end, but in the hands of his grandchildren, he established the Xixia Kingdom that spanned thousands of miles. What if Hezhou is temporarily ceded to the Song people, as long as he is alive, as long as he can keep the last piece of land, there is still time to take Hezhou back after all.

Mu Zheng will never give up!

As for the current war, since it is irreparable, it is better to save a little vitality for their various departments, so as to regain and prepare for it in the future.

……………………

On the other side of the battlefield, Wang Shao and Gao Zunyu didn't know that Lu Daomu Zheng had already retreated. still put on a happy look on his face, just like the generals under their command.

It's just that between their eyebrows, there is still a faint worry. If it was on weekdays, in ordinary battles, they had full confidence in Han Gang, and their successes in the past proved Han Gang's ability. However, the situation is too critical this time, and the confidence built up by past results will not be able to maintain their emotional stability.

In any case, with the distance between Fort Kono and River State, it is impossible for Mu Zheng to receive the news in a short time. Even if Fort Kono had made a mistake, before mid-afternoon, it would still be the result of the failure of the night attack on the army.

The drums of war, which resounded as they did yesterday, were beaten again, and the well-organized army began to advance in the direction where the enemy troops had gathered.

Stepping on the beat of the drums, thousands of Song soldiers were ready for a bloody battle with the enemy. But today's situation was different from yesterday's, before their troops, the Tibetan cavalry was routed, and before they could even rush in front of the Song army, they had already scattered and fled.

The tens of thousands of troops gathered by Mu Zheng were scattered in the blink of an eye. Tens of thousands of soldiers of the Song army stood on the battlefield in a daze, forgetting to pursue for a while.

'That's it?' ’

Wang Shao and Gao Zunyu looked at each other suspiciously, they were not sure, could it be that just by relying on the vague cheers, the Tubo people had lost the courage to fight? Could it be that the Tubo people have reached such a point of rumor? And who was the one who fought with them yesterday?

“…… No, Mu Zheng is trying to escape! Wang Shao's face changed violently, "If you can't take Mu Zheng, Hehuang won't be able to settle down!" ”

"Chase!" Gao Zunyu also woke up, if he didn't win Mu Zheng, it couldn't be regarded as a victory.

Looking at the Tubo cavalry that left the battlefield in a hurry, Wang Shao and Gao Zunyu's anger did not help. It was not the case last night under Fort Kono, and the four-legged cavalry, who had also rested all night, were to run away, and the two-legged infantry could not pursue them. At present, there are only 2,000 cavalry in hand, and they dare not let them go deep into the enemy line and chase after them.

Wan Sheng's chant resounded in the sky, but Wang Shao and Gao Zunyu's hearts did not have the slightest joy of victory.

Wang Shao clenched his teeth tightly. Although he is poor, he must be chased to the end!

After taking a deep breath, Wang Shao calmed down, and he turned to Gao Zunyu and said, "Since Mu Zheng has given up Hezhou, there shouldn't be many tribes here who will still be loyal to him. It just so happens that there are still a lot of empty names left, and it is time to disperse. ”

Before the start of the war, the Son of Heaven issued 200 Xuanza at the beginning, and later added 100 Dao, plus the power to act cheaply, theoretically Wang Shao could grant the official position of any number of minor envoys. And in fact, if the number of three hundred empty names is one or two hundred, the Son of Heaven will not take it to heart.

Although the official position given to the Tibetan people has always sounded good and looked good, there is nothing practical. Mu Zheng was awarded the history of Hezhou Thorn, and he was still beaten to the point that Hezhou was lost. Starting from Yuan Hao's fathers and ancestors, the Great Song Dynasty canonized them as the kings of Xia and set the dignity of monarchs and ministers. But between the two countries, it has not been the same for decades.

But Wang Shao wanted to use it to recover the Tibetan people, and the official position of the Song State was the best tool.

"There are still too few wins in this battle. I don't know how many of these Tibetans will be willing to surrender. Gao Zunyu said about his worries, "What if they just surrender in name only, but actually listen to Mu Zheng's words?" ”

Wang Shao gritted his teeth, "Mu Zheng still has to chase down." It must be pursued to the end, if Mu Zheng is not removed, Hezhou will definitely not be stable! ”

"Look at the direction of Mu Zheng's departure, that's to the south!"

Gao Zunyu and Wang Shao are both veterans of military affairs and have an in-depth understanding of the geography of Hezhou. Mu Zheng's whereabouts today represent his future strategy.

If Mu Zheng wants to use his uncle's strength to take refuge in the current Tubo Zampu-Dong Yu, it must be to cross the water to the west and go to the Qingtang King City by the Huangshui. If he wanted to rely on the party members, he should go to the north, close to Lanzhou.

But now he was heading south, where there was no power he could draw on, but there was a land that belonged to him.

Just south of the mountains, deep in the forest.

"Explicit Mountain! ......" There was a hint of fear in Gao Zunyu's voice, "We can't get around that mountain!" ”

"Then turn it over!"
