Xie Ai and his 80,000 defeated soldiers fled south for more than 50 miles in a row, and gradually broke away from contact with the pursuers under Murong Ke.

"General, our army has suffered heavy losses in this battle, even if we retreat to Yecheng, our army has no certainty of victory! Isn't it time to ask the king for help? One of the generals looked at Xie Ai and asked loudly.

Obviously, this general is not very clear about the situation in the direction of Yecheng, especially the 20,000 elite chariot troops under Xie Ai, he does not know at all, and, in addition to these 20,000 elite chariot troops, there are also 40,000 newly formed infantry, all of which are equipped with chariot troops, and when fighting, they can follow behind the chariot to attack, of course, in order to unify the command, these 60,000 soldiers and horses are all led by Yang An, and deployed near Hulu Valley, ready to meet the southward army of Yan State at any time.

And Xie Ai did not tell the generals under the command of the soldiers and horses of Yecheng, naturally it was also for the sake of secrecy, so that the Yan army lacked due vigilance, and then severely damaged the main force of the Yan army.

However, since the subordinate generals are very worried about the next situation, Xie Ai naturally still has to explain, after all, if the soldiers under his command lose confidence in the next battle, they may really be defeated.

Xie Ai looked at the generals beside him, and said, "Generals, you don't have to worry, on the outskirts of Yecheng, tens of thousands of elite soldiers of our army are ready. As long as the Yan army dares to chase into the outskirts of Yecheng, the elite soldiers of our army will definitely let the Yan army have no return, you can rest assured. ”

"That's right, what General Xie said is the truth, our army still has tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Yecheng, which is enough to defeat the pursuers of the Yan Kingdom. When the time comes, our army will attack together with the soldiers and horses of Yecheng, and the army of Yan will definitely come and go, and the victory must belong to us. Zhang Hao said loudly.

When all the generals heard this, they all believed Xie Ai and Zhang Hao's statement, and were full of confidence in the final victory over the Yan army.

Less than ten miles away from the camping position of Xie Ai's legion, Murong Ke and his soldiers and horses also stopped. They had to take the necessary rest before continuing the pursuit.

You must know that the iron rope cavalry under Murong Ke is a heavy arm, even if the iron rope between the war horses is opened, the speed of travel will be affected, and the war horses are more likely to get tired. If you can't catch up with Xie Ai's army for a while, it's inevitable.

At the location of the camp. Murong Ke sat on a big stone and rested, while his subordinates gathered around, waiting for Murong Ba's orders at any time.

"Report, general, the main force of the enemy army is camping more than ten miles ahead." Soon. The scouts sent by Murong Ke reported the situation of Xie Ai's army to Murong Ke.

When Murong Ba heard this, he hugged his fists and said, "Fourth brother, it seems that the speed of the enemy army is still much faster than ours!" And so it goes. The distance between our army and the enemy will become farther and farther away. ”

"General, why don't our army return to Xiangguo, and attack Xiangguo City together with the soldiers and horses left behind in the direction of Xiangguo, first break through Xiangguo City, and then attack in the direction of Yecheng together, in this way, wouldn't it be better to fight steadily and steadily, and besides, after our army occupies Xiangguo City, we can rely on Xiangguo City to attack and retreat." A subordinate general shouted loudly.

Murong Ke shook his head and said: "Of course, it is very good to fight steadily, but you should know that the Yao Xiang army in Qingzhou has been defeated, and it is very likely that the king of the north will transfer the soldiers and horses of Qingzhou to Hebei, so the pressure on our army will be great, so our army must completely eliminate the Xie Ai army before the enemy's reinforcements arrive in Hebei, and quickly occupy the entire Hebei, so that the enemy's reinforcements will arrive in Hebei again, and they can only do nothing."

When all the generals heard this, they all thought that what Murong Ke said was very reasonable, after all, although they had a great advantage, if Hua'an sent a large number of reinforcements to Hebei and join forces with Xie Ai's army, the pressure they would face would be very great, so they had to fight quickly, eliminate Xie Ai's army as much as possible, and occupy the entire Hebei.

In this way, Xie Ai's army retreated all the way to Yecheng, while Murong Ke's army was in hot pursuit, the distance between them and Yecheng was getting closer and closer, and a fierce battle was about to begin.

In the Hebei direction, the situation is already very serious, and in the Liaodong direction, the situation is also beginning to become tense.

Yao Xiang's soldiers and horses under the command of Yao Xiang, who left Qingzhou by boat and arrived in Liaodong County, were stationed in a small city in Liaodong County, and in Donglai County in Qingzhou, Hua'an transferred 10,000 sailors from the direction of Luoyang City, and had arrived at the ferry port of Donglai County, and was ready to go to sea at any time, and the 80,000 troops under Wang Wu's command were completely ready.

"General, the whole army is fully ready to board the ship and set off at any time." The general looked at Wang Wu and said loudly.

Wang Wu nodded with satisfaction, and said with a straight face: "10,000 soldiers and horses must be left in the direction of the ferry to be responsible for defense, and the remaining 70,000 troops will immediately board the ship and prepare to march in the direction of Liaodong." ”

"Yes, General." The general accepted the order loudly, and immediately ordered all the troops and horses to begin boarding.

Soon, Wang Wu and his 70,000 troops boarded hundreds of ships of various types, and 10,000 sailors and soldiers were also ready to sail at any time.

Wang Wu stood at the highest point of the flagship and ordered loudly: "Set sail and march to Liaodong." ”

Under Wang Wu's order, a huge fleet of ships left the ferry port of Donglai County, lined up in a column, and marched towards the Mayoujin ferry port in Liaodong County.

In order to prevent bad weather such as strong winds on the way, Wang Wu asked the fleet to travel along the island group in the North Sea, so that in the event of bad weather such as heavy storms and rains, the islands could provide some cover for the fleet, so that the fleet would not suffer great losses.

However, traveling along the island group, you will also encounter very big trouble, that is, the danger of the reef, after all, once the ship hits the reef, it will run aground, and if you are strict, it is very likely to cause the tragedy of the ship's destruction and death.

Of course, after Wang Wu discussed this problem with the officers and men of the navy, he had already found a good solution, that is, to first send a few ships with a shallow draft to open the way ahead, and use various tools to probe whether there are reefs in the waterway, and if there are reefs in the waterway, he will immediately change the course to bypass the terrible reef, so that the danger of the reef can basically be eliminated.

In this way, Wang Wu and his 70,000 troops, and the 10,000 sailors who had been responsible for transporting them, marched in the direction of Liaodong County.

Before Wang Wu and his army boarded the ship and marched in the direction of Liaodong County, Yao Xiang's subordinates learned of the news and immediately went to Liaodong County to report this important information to Yao Xiang.

When Yao Xiang learned of this important news, Wang Wu and the main army under his command had already left Donglai County and were on their way to Liaodong County, which made Yao Xiang very nervous and surprised.

"Fifth brother, our army finally escaped to Liaodong, I really didn't expect Wang Wu to lead the main army to chase after me, so Liaodong is not a place to stay for a long time! Our army should immediately continue to retreat north, otherwise, once the main army under Wang Wu is killed, our army is in danger of being annihilated. Yao Chang said loudly.

When Yao Xiang heard this, he shook his head slightly, and said: "Our army always flees to the north, and it is not a way, Liaodong County is under the control of Yan State, here, Yan State has deployed tens of thousands of horses, and our army should work with the army of Yan State to block the army under Wang Wu." ”

Obviously, Yao Xiang didn't want to continue to evacuate north, after all, it was not a way to always evacuate backwards, and the further north the land became, the more barren it became, and Yao Xiang naturally didn't want to enter the bitter cold land.

"Fifth brother, the soldiers and horses deployed by Yan State in Liaodong County are only twenty or thirty thousand people at most, how can such a thin army of soldiers and horses be able to block the main army under Wang Wu, if you want to resist the main army under Wang Wu, Yan must send more soldiers and horses, but it is too late, Wang Wu and the main army under his command will soon arrive in Liaodong, and Yan's reinforcements will definitely not arrive in Liaodong in a short time, and our army should evacuate as much as possible." Yao Chang explained loudly again.

"Yes! General, there are not many soldiers and horses in our army, and it is safer to evacuate Liaodong. One of the generals also persuaded him.

Yao Xiang waved his hand, looked at Yao Chang and the generals, and said: "You don't have to worry, although Wang Wu's army has enough soldiers and horses, it is a lone expedition to Liaodong, they broke away from the support of Qingzhou and Yanzhou, and rashly entered Liaodong, it is impossible to get any support, and the people of Liaodong are mostly Liuyi people, they will not support Wang Wu's soldiers and horses, as long as our army joins forces with the Liaodong soldiers and horses of Yan State, and obtains the support of the local people, it can completely block the attack of Wang Wu's army, and most importantly, Wang Wu's army was not very familiar with the terrain of Liaodong, but the soldiers and horses of Yan State knew the terrain of Liaodong well, so when Wang Wu's army entered Liaodong, it would not have the opportunity to drive straight into Liaodong, and even suffered heavy losses, and finally fled. ”

Seeing that Yao Xiang's analysis was very reasonable, Yao Chang and all the generals nodded approvingly, and agreed to Yao Xiang's plan, preparing to unite the Liaodong defenders of Yan State to resist the attack of Wang Wu's army, and at the same time, they also reported to Murong Jun the news of the main force of Wang Wu's army's invasion of Liaodong, hoping that Murong Jun would send reinforcements to reinforce Liaodong.
