Chapter 449: Knowing Where to Go, Admire Three Points, Make a Strategy, and Ride First
A hasty encounter ended with Xu Lang's resounding victory. Two thousand enemy troops, more than 1,300, all of whom eventually became their own brothers.
"General, I know the whereabouts of His Royal Highness!"
Since it has fallen, some people want to brush up on their presence.
Of course, this is what Xu Lang wants to know. Before, Zheng Baye and Bai Yun Zhenren followed this point, and then stopped, the final whereabouts of the eldest prince were indeed unknown.
"And so it is!"
Xu Lang looked at the sergeant who was bowing down in front of him, looking at this outfit, what should he be.
"I heard what General Wu said, His Royal Highness the Prince may want to go to Huarong Road, most likely because he wants to go to Yiling."
This chief respectfully reported to Xu Lang.
"Huarong Dao? Guan Yunchang let go of Cao Mengde's Huarong Dao? ”
When Xu Lang heard this, his mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about the truth of what he said.
If this great prince really walked Huarong Road, maybe he really wanted to go to Yiling, I heard that the main general of Yiling is the righteous son of King Ping, surnamed Lei Minghu, but he is a brave general!
However, from Huarong to Wuling County, it seems that the distance is closer, so is it possible for him to go to his second brother-in-law to praise him?
Obviously, he had two options.
Thinking of this, Xu Lang admired the great prince a little.
Chasing this way, the great prince is really well-intentioned. First, the troops were divided into two routes, and General Peng led the army to Ezhou, so that it was difficult for the pursuers to judge their true direction, and then, they arranged suspicious soldiers at the Luocheng ferry, which effectively bought time for themselves to escape. Now, by going to Huarong, you can go to Wuling County, or you can go to Yiling, I have to say that he is really a talent. And if it weren't for Zheng Baye and the others to follow all the way, I'm afraid that they wouldn't be able to catch up here for a while.
And calculate the time, at this moment, I am afraid that the tens of thousands of people in the great prince are already faster than Huarong, only one or two hundred miles away from Wuling County, and only four or five hundred miles away from Nayiling.
Where to go?
Xu Lang was a little undecided.
"Virtuous nephew, I also think that most of this great prince is going to Yiling. Do you think, since he doesn't even want to go to Ezhou, how can he be willing to go to Wuling County? ”
Zheng Baye was also thinking.
He thought that the eldest prince pretended to go to Ezhou, but he transferred to Luocheng and went to Huarong Road, and it took so much effort to go to any sister and brother-in-law. I heard that the father and son of the Xuan family of Wuling County are well-known, and they are both brave and capable of fighting, if the eldest prince goes, he will look embarrassed everywhere. And, as soon as King Ping falls, who knows if the Xuan father and son have different intentions? Therefore, this Wuling County, in the eyes of the great prince, must have become a dangerous place. In this way, the possibility of him going to Yiling has greatly increased.
"Well, Uncle Zheng is very reasonable. The lord of the Yiling Tomb, Lei Hu, Su Chengping, the grace of King Ping, the great prince of the past, is expected to be more welcomed. On the side of Wuling County, with the temperament of the great prince, he will definitely not dare to take risks easily. Therefore, Uncle Zheng, let's go to Yiling! ”
Xu Lang also suddenly became clear and made a decision.
"Commander Sun Er, you take a hundred horsemen from the guard battalion, go first, and I will catch up when the army behind arrives."
Xu Lang knew that no matter where the great prince went, there was at least a gap of a few hours between them. The only way to do this is to send light cavalry to find out the enemy's traces first, and then lead the army to find an opportunity to fight. And if the great prince really escaped into Yiling, it would definitely take a lot of trouble.
"Come on, quickly return along the original road, inform the chief of the dust road, ask him to take a shortcut to Jingzhou, and order the general to cross the river to intercept, if it is not blocked, then notify Jingmen and Xiangyang, and each send some soldiers to come to Yiling City. In addition, General Wei was ordered to lead the naval army back to Yuezhou first to strictly prevent Ezhou from attacking. I also have to go to the direction of Pingjiang, find Commander Sun, and order them to follow me to Yiling as soon as possible. ”
Everything is unknown, and Xu Lang has to be ready to fight another big battle.
