Fifteen miles away from Guangyuan Mansion, a team of scouts from the Southern Dynasty is scouting outside the valley, the topography here is very complicated, the drop in the valley is very large, and there are dense broad-leaved forests, if you are not careful, you will get lost in it, and you can't get out for several days.

Scout Captain Uncle De rode on a horse, holding a straw in his mouth, checking the map in his hand, and the scout Donald Sixhundred, who was just twenty-three years old, climbed on his war horse boredly and yelled at Uncle De.

"Hey, Uncle De, the army has been mobilized, what are we still searching for in the mountains? Let's hurry up, walk faster, and maybe we can get back to the camp for the night before dark. ”

Uncle De glanced at Tang Lao Liu, and said disdainfully: "What do you know, after the army leaves, many rats who usually dare not come out will come out, it is a good time to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, and the prince uses this trick every time he fights, and he tries every time." ”

"He also preached with the prince, as if he had seen it with his own eyes."

Donald pouted, muttered in a low voice, and stopped talking.

Uncle De looked at the map, looked at the sky again, and asked, "Junzi, are they back?" ”

The man who was called Shunzi was a man in his thirties, with a fierce face, obviously a veteran oilman, and when he heard Uncle De's words, he shook his head: "I went out early in the morning, and I haven't come back yet." ”

Uncle De frowned, and said loudly: "I haven't come back after going out for so long, I'm afraid I'm going to get lost in the forest again, we have to go and find them back, otherwise those rabbit cubs will have to spend the night in the forest." ”

Junko nodded, put two fingers into his mouth and blew hard, a special whistle sounded, and the dozen or so scouts around him immediately jumped on their horses and prepared to go.

I saw Uncle De's horse reins pointing to the forest, and then gently pinched the war horse under the crotch, and the scout team immediately jumped out and rushed into the forest.

More than an hour later, the scouts who had entered the mountains to find people stopped in front of a bush, and Tang Lao Liu led the horse with one hand and picked up the bushes with the other, carefully examining the surrounding traces, his brows furrowing more and more.

"What did you find?"

Seeing his expression, Uncle De asked loudly a few meters away from him.

Tang Lao Liu raised his head and said solemnly: "There seem to be traces of a large number of people passing by." ”

Uncle De's face changed: "Is it Dongzai and them?" ”

Tang Lao Liu shook his head: "The grass is crooked, there are at least hundreds of people, and they passed by here about yesterday." ”

Uncle De walked up to Donald Liu's side and looked at the bushes, and immediately confirmed his guess, and his face gradually became serious.

"Junko, in which opposite direction did our advance team go?"

Junzi groaned slightly: "Northeast, it's not this direction anyway." ”

Uncle De's face changed, and he said in a low voice: "Alert! There may be enemies around. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded in the distance, and before everyone could react, Uncle De's head suddenly had a thumb-thick arrow rain on his head, and the veteran, who was nearly fifty years old, stared at his eyes and fell straight back.

"Enemy attack!"

Seeing this, Junko was the first to react and hurriedly yelled.

But at this moment, there was a sudden loud noise around him, and a thick cloud of smoke rose out with flames, and the earth shook violently, and seven or eight scouts around him died instantly.

A few who slipped through the net a little farther away were barely lucky, and they escaped the explosion and fragmentation of the grenade, but countless wind-breaking sounds were immediately heard all around, and a dense rain of arrows shot from all directions, and the scouts who had just been knocked down by the grenades immediately turned into dead souls.

Donald was the luckiest man in the squad, and Uncle De was overwhelmed when he fell, unaffected by the grenades and repeating crossbows.

But as soon as he got up, he was frightened half to death by the hellish scene full of corpses in front of him, especially Shunzi, who was still alive just now, only half of his body was left at this time, his face was blurred with flesh and blood, and his two eyes were staring at the boss, as if he was staring at himself.

He tried to escape, but his legs were weak and he didn't listen to the call at all.

Finally, Tang Lao Liu barely suppressed the fear in his heart and wanted to escape, but a scimitar had already resisted his back.

He was shocked, looked back in horror, and saw a lot of people rushing out of the bushes, and a guy who looked like an officer put a scimitar against his back, and said with a smile: "In the lower apocalypse guard Zhang Zuofeng, congratulations on becoming my prisoner." ”

In the depths of the dense forest, more than 300 people who could still fight in Tianqiwei were hidden here, and after repairing in Hechun County for a few days, he left a large number of heavy and seriously wounded there, and the whole army only brought ten days' rations, and went into battle lightly to pursue the Wuling pro-army.

It just so happened that in the past few days, there was a civil strife in Tianhai Pavilion in the Wuling pro-army, and they stayed in Guangyuan Mansion for a few days, and finally were chased by the Tianqiwei before the army started.

However, in the face of more than 100,000 Wuling pro-troops, Xu Rui did not act rashly, but hid the army into the mountains and probed the news on the spot.

At this time, he was huddled in front of the map with a group of generals to analyze the current situation, no matter what form of war, intelligence is always the most lacking, but also the most critical link.

"Shuai, those scouts have spoken!"

In the distance, Zhang Zuofeng walked towards everyone with a happy face.

Cao Siyuan didn't speak with a gloomy face, but Xu Rui stood up and asked with a smile, "What's the situation?" ”

Zhang Zuofeng said: "The handsome man is clever, as you expected, the enemy army has been pulled out early this morning and headed to the northeast." ”

"Oh!"

When Xu Rui heard this, he immediately squatted down and looked towards the map, his fingers slid back and forth on the marked arrow a few times, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a smile.

"Sure enough, they want to start a decisive battle on the spot, first defeat the main force of our army, and then capture Changxing in one go!"

Zhang Zuofeng smiled: "Then why don't we chase or not?" ”

Xu Rui nodded: "Chase, why don't you chase?" If we don't chase it, why are we running so far? Tell the whole army to get ready for action! ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Zuofeng agreed, and he wanted to carry out the order happily.

Cao Siyuan suddenly "pounced" and knelt in front of Xu Rui.

"Dashuai, we only have about 300 people, most of the brothers are injured, and our food, grass, and ammunition have bottomed out, at this time to chase more than 100,000 Wuling pro-army is tantamount to looking for death, you just open your grace and leave a root for our Apocalypse."

"Dashuai!"

"Dashuai!"

"You can leave a root for the Apocalypse."

This time, not only Cao Siyuan, but even Lin Shaodong, Guo Shengbao and several other major generals knelt in front of Xu Rui, but Zhang Zuofeng's joy was fixed on his face, standing stupidly in place, in a dilemma.

In the face of everyone's prayers, Xu Rui suddenly laughed out loud.

Everyone didn't understand why the situation was so difficult, Xu Rui could still laugh, and they all looked at him stunned.

Xu Rui sighed, one in each hand, lifted Cao Siyuan and Lin Shaodong up, after being genetically strengthened, his strength had skyrocketed several times, and the two of them only felt as if they were caught by a fierce beast, and there was no room for resistance.

However, the two of them were not in the mood to be surprised at this time, they were more concerned about the life and death of the Apocalypse than Xu Rui's recent abnormality.

"The Apocalypse Guard was built by Ben Shuai himself, every bit of it is Ben Shuai's hard work, are you distressed, Ben Shuai is not distressed?"

Xu Rui asked loudly.

"Since you are distressed, why do you want to chase the hundreds of thousands of Wuling pro-army?"

Cao Siyuan asked puzzled.

Xu Rui patted him lightly on the shoulder and said, "I have my own clever plan to retreat, and it won't work if I say it." ”

Everyone didn't expect him to say this, and looked at each other.

Xu Rui turned his face and said, "What, can't you trust me?" ”

Everyone shook their heads one after another.

Xu Rui said: "Since you can trust it, go and do your own thing, I guarantee that the Apocalypse will be safe and sound!" ”

In the face of more than 100,000 Wuling pro-troops, they dare to say that they can make the three hundred Heavenly Apocalypse Guards safe and sound, I am afraid that only their own marshal is not bluffing, although the generals are still a little weak-minded, but they all absolutely believe that Xu Rui has this ability.

"Alas!"

Cao Siyuan saw that Xu Rui said this, and he didn't want to argue about anything, so he stood up and pushed away Zhang Zuofeng, who was in the way, and walked away.

The others didn't take a straight look at Zhang Zuofeng, and returned in a huff.

In the eyes of everyone, it is the set of loyalty and patriotism that Zhang Zuofeng insisted on, so that the intelligent Xu Dashuai led the decisive battle between Tianqiwei and Wuling's pro-army, although everyone was not as clear as Cao Siyuan's love and hate, but they also had more or less opinions about him.

But even so, Zhang Zuofeng still adheres to his beliefs and is never moved by external objects.

"Go about your business, too."

Xu Rui nodded at Zhang Zuofeng, Zhang Zuofeng hugged his fist at him, turned around and left, and didn't say a word about the grievances in his heart.

"Looks like your men still don't have some fire."

Han Qi touched Xu Rui's side at some point and said leisurely.

Xu Rui glanced at him and sneered: "Don't talk about yourself like a roundworm in my stomach." ”

Han Qi said lightly: "Although your Apocalypse Guard is strong, it is based on the squeezing out of a large number of new tactics and new weapons, and now you are trapped behind enemy lines and have lost the supply of weapons, let alone make a difference, it is difficult to protect yourself."

So on the one hand, you sent Xu Ange to quietly pass through the war zone to contact the main force of our army, and on the other hand, you approached Guangyuan Mansion with the remnants of the Apocalypse Guard lightly, and you didn't want to fight any tough battles at all, but wanted to open up a supply line, am I right? ”

"It seems to make sense."

Xu Rui was noncommittal.

Han Qi smiled slightly, pointed to an inconspicuous dot on the map and said: "Supplies must be delivered from the capital, and the fastest way is by water, so your final destination must be this inconspicuous but with enough throughput of the horse's head, this is the place where the apocalypse is related to health and death!" ”

As soon as these words came out, a trace of confusion suddenly flashed in Xu Rui's eyes, and then he sneered: "I really should kill you mouthy guy." ”

Han Qi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Why not?" Maybe it's a good choice. ”

Xu Rui snorted coldly: "Forget it, before I don't know your depth, I don't want to force you to jump off the wall in a hurry, who knows what else you are hiding." ”

"Oh, why do you say that?"

Han Qi asked curiously.

Xu Rui pointed to his head: "Intuition! ”

Han Qi smiled: "I also have an intuition, do you want to hear it?" ”

"I don't want to!"

Xu Rui refused without hesitation.

Han Qi didn't seem to care about Xu Rui's bad attitude, and said with a smile: "But I still want to tell you that my intuition is that although your abacus is good, I'm afraid it's not so easy to achieve." ”

Xu Rui's face changed: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Han Qi shook his head: "It's not interesting, it's just intuition." ”

After speaking, he arched his hand towards Xu Rui and walked towards his tent.

Xu Rui stared at his back, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

"Is it really intuition? But why do I always think this guy means something? ”

Han Qi turned his back to Xu Rui, and sighed in his heart: "Intuition, this guy's intuition is really terrifying, so the time to do it has to be delayed again, it's really a headache......"
