There was no way, Zhao Yuanji and the others could only continue to move forward to find the next camp.

However, after leaving the small village for about fifteen miles, the road began to change completely.

The loess was truncated in front of everyone, and in its place was a wide avenue of grayish-white, connected blocks, straight!

The large army stopped in front of the road in surprise, and at this moment, the sky was completely dark, and the fear of the unknown made them dare not continue to advance.

The general was surprised and guessed: "Could this be the cement road that Liu Duwei said?" ”

Zhao Yuanji rode forward and came to the wide cement road with a solemn expression.

The general was shocked and said: "This place is thirty miles away from Yuyang County, but I didn't expect that in half a year, they have paved the road so far." ”

"This road is wide and flat, if the Xu family army comes by horse, I am afraid it will take less than half an hour from the county seat to here, and it will be able to face our army head-on!"

Speaking of this, the general was inexplicably panicked, and hurriedly circled around, looking at the dark night around him, there was always a feeling that he had been targeted.

The general raised his hand in exchange for a few spies, and waved them to investigate the surroundings so as not to encounter an enemy ambush.

When the spies set off and came back to report that there was no trace of the Xu family army around, the general's uneasiness still could not dissipate.

However, the road in front of me cannot be continued tonight.

"Your Majesty, there is a river here, it is better to camp here for one night, recuperate your energy early tomorrow morning, and attack Yuyang County in one fell swoop!" The Counsellor proposed.

Zhao Yuanji looked at the concrete road in front of him that spread straight into the darkness and nodded.

"Heighten your vigilance tonight, I always feel that this road just stopped here, and something is not right." Zhao Yuanji admonished.

The general bowed his head, and he didn't need the emperor to say it, he would do the same.

This is too close to Yuyang County, and there is such a cement road leading straight to the county seat, Xu Jiajun is likely to sneak attack at night.

And the road ahead, Xu Jiajun must have changed when it was built, it is not the original road for a long time, once Xu Jiajun appears, they will chase away, and it is very likely that they will be ambushed by the other party.

This general is very experienced, and his guesses have all come true!

Just as Zhao Yuanji entered the tent that the soldiers had set up for themselves, the neighing of horses suddenly came from the dirt recess where no one was around.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of horses' hooves rolled in from all directions like thunder, as if they had been surrounded, and the Xu family army rushed out everywhere!

Darkness was the best cover, and the specially trained horses, driven by professional horsemen and spears in hand, rushed into the camp, and set fire to the tents around them.

At the same time, there was the sound of the porcelain jar being smashed, followed by the smell of oil wafting out, and the fire rose to the sky, and the whole camp was suddenly caught off guard by this sudden change.

"Xu Jiajun is here! It's Xu Jiajun! Soldiers shouted.

There was also a eunuch's shrill voice roaring: "Escort! Escort! ”

The blazing firelight illuminated the entire camp, and those Xu Jiajun who were riding black horses and holding special long-handled weapons were suddenly exposed to everyone's sight.

Wrapped in black cloth, they showed only a pair of calm eyes from head to toe, and a dozen of them were lined up in a long line with horses in one hand and long-handled weapons in the other, and they rushed from the east, disturbing all order, and then scattered like lightning from west to all sides.

They came and went quickly, and the general was originally going to order the soldiers to go in pursuit, but seeing that there were only a dozen people on the other side, it was really strange, and he was afraid of falling into an ambush, so he had to immediately order the archers to kill, and did not dare to act rashly.

It's just that behind these black-clothed men seemed to have eyes, and the fierce horses galloped, walking on strange winding roads, drifting left and right, and before the archers' arrows came close, they disappeared into the night, only the sound of horses' hooves loomed, and they gradually moved away.

The familiar terrain is too advantageous for Xu Jiajun.

Seeing that those specially trained horse guards disappeared without a trace, Zhao Yuanji, who was protected by the guards, suddenly found that he and the others had become passive when they took the initiative to attack.

It was difficult to guarantee that the other party would come a second time, so the general ordered someone to protect Zhao Yuanji strictly, and he took someone to extinguish the fire, and then counted the losses.

Fortunately, only a few tents were burned and a dozen recruit eggs died.

The grain and grass cart they were most worried about was actually fine, and they didn't know if it was a fluke or if these horsemen did it on purpose.

After this toss, it was late at night, but everyone did not dare to relax their vigilance again.

And so, he died until dawn.

At this time, it was the most sleepy time, the soldiers on duty at night looked at the white of the fish belly in the sky, thinking that the sky was about to dawn, and it was impossible for the Xu family army to come again.

The horse's hooves trampled on the concrete floor with a crisp "click" sound, obviously the other party exposed their whereabouts in advance, but for the court soldiers on duty, it was like a horn of death coming, so startled that they fell asleep and dispersed.

"Knock knock!" The sound of the gong spread throughout the camp, and Zhao Yuanji, who was just about to take a break, was instantly awakened.

"Xu Jiajun is here again!"

The soldiers' exclamations came from outside the tent, and Zhao Yuanji immediately heard the angry roar of the general.

"Fuck it! Let's see that Lao Tzu won't kill you bareheads this time! ”

The general organized his manpower while scolding his mother, but this time he reacted quickly, and quickly pulled up the defensive line, with the cavalry on the left and the infantry on the right, with the camp as a round point, radiating to the surroundings to set up a defense.

However, this time, the Xu Jiajun did not rush over, as if they saw that they had a defense, they only glanced at it, and immediately turned around and ran away.

This wave, the lethality is zero, but it is extremely insulting.

The general only felt that a fist had hit the cotton, and he couldn't sleep peacefully after staying up all night, and his spirit was on the verge of collapse, so he was so angry that he pulled up his longbow and shot three arrows at the cement road.

The metal arrowhead slammed into the concrete floor, and it was bounced into the air, leaving only a small white crater in the ground.

Such a hard ground, everyone had never seen it before, and they were stunned for a while.

"I heard Captain Liu say that Xu Jiajun used this kind of cement to rebuild the city wall of Yuyang County...... "Some soldiers gasped, and before they arrived at Yuyang County, fear rose in their hearts.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the general's cold eyes swept over.

Suddenly, no one dared to talk about cement.

There was no rest all night, but the imperial army could not continue to stay, so they quickly packed up the camp, and with the momentum of wanting to clean up the Xu family's army, they set foot on this cement road that leads directly to Yuyang County.
