After two days of travel, Shen Ye and the others had already approached the Motag Desert.

Yu Wenhu deliberately delayed time, and he slowed down his own speed under the pretext of not alarming the other party, and let the team sleep well the night before.

Although Shen Ye was anxious, he also knew that if the team appeared in front of the other party in a tired state, there would only be the result of the annihilation of the entire army, so he did not say anything against it.

"Your Highness, wait a moment, I have already sent spies to the surrounding area to inquire about the situation."

Yuwen Hu was secretly proud, he had already ordered his subordinates in advance last night, and when they took a turn casually, they would come back and report to him that a small number of enemies appeared around, and then he could justifiably slow down the speed of the team.

Shen Ye looked around, his eyes were a little distracted, the woods, streams, valleys, bushes, how similar the landform here was to Yao Mountain, for a moment, Shen Ye thought that he had returned to Yao Mountain.

Yu Wenhu also thought that Shen Ye was dissatisfied with his arrangement, and he explained: "Your Highness, this is a wilderness, once the other party discovers us and sets up an ambush somewhere, it will be easy to eliminate our little people, so we should be careful." ”

Shen Ye came back to his senses and nodded, "Everything is up to the general's arrangement." ”

While the two were talking, several spies sent out by Yuwenhu ran back.

It's just that a few people look extremely weird.

"General Qiyu, there are many cavalry infested ahead."

Yu Wenhu didn't notice their expressions, he asked expressionlessly, "Can you see clearly?" ”

"The subordinates didn't dare to get too close for fear of alarming each other, but they should be scouts sent by Jiuqu, and they are wearing the clothes of Youzhou soldiers."

Shen Ye beside him was overjoyed, and he asked anxiously, "Have you ever seen their large army?" ”

The soldiers knew that this young man was a distinguished guest of Yuwen Hu, and they shook their heads and said, "I haven't seen it." ”

Shen Ye's face turned a little pale.

Yu Wenhu worried: "What's wrong with you?" But the wound on the shoulder ......"

Shen Ye shook his head and said in a low voice: "I suddenly thought that most of the people in the family are young people, and the desert conditions are difficult and dangerous, and I am worried that if they lack food on the way, Xue Mu and the others will give up on them." ”

When the soldiers heard this, they looked strange and said, "Childe doesn't have to be too pessimistic. ”

Yu Wenhu's face was a little unsightly, he didn't let the soldiers interject at will, what if the prince asked in detail, what if his own arrangements were put on. He hurriedly waved his hand and told the soldier to leave.

Shen Ye hurriedly stopped them and said strangely, "Have you seen them?" ”

Yu Wenhu's face sank, and he looked at his subordinates unkindly, telling you to talk more! See how I clean you up afterwards!

The soldiers met Yu Wenhu's gaze, not afraid at all, and replied: "We saw a team of men and women, all dressed in scribe clothes, and they should be from the family mentioned by Gongzi. ”

"Hey, these boys can, I actually guessed that there was a woman in it." Yu Wenhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was a little impressed by his subordinates.

Shen Ye was stunned, he raised his eyebrows and questioned: "Didn't you say that you were far away, how can you tell that there are women in the team?" ”

"It's bad, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so suspicious, which makes him catch the flaw." Yu Wenhu's heart hung again.

The soldier replied, "We also guess that there were only two people sitting on two horsemen in that group, and that the two men in front of them were dressed in light-colored clothes and had long hair flowing freely, so we thought they were women." ”

"Two women, it must be Liu Qingyao and her maidservant Yan Ru, and most of the people behind are Song Cheng and the head of the Liu family, they are still alive!" Shen Ye was relieved and asked, "Which direction did they go?" ”

The soldier said: "The direction of the march of these people is very strange, suddenly to the east, suddenly to the west, unpredictable. ”

"High! It's really high! Okay boys, so I can even stay put. Yu Wenhu touched his beard on his face, and was very satisfied with the answers of several people.

Shen Ye was a little puzzled by the actions of the Jiuqu people, and he turned his head to look at Yu Wenhu.

Yuwen Hu looked at Shen Ye with a puzzled expression, he immediately changed into the appearance of facing a great enemy, Yu Wen Hu pinched his chin and pretended to think, and then said in a deep voice: "I think the enemy may know about our existence, this is a suspicious plan." ”

"Suspicious tactics?"

"Not bad." Yu Wenhu waved his hand and motioned for his subordinates to leave, and he explained to Shen Ye: "They deliberately released those people from the family for us to see and lure us to chase after them. ”

Shen Ye thought for a moment and agreed with Yuwen Hu's statement, otherwise he couldn't explain why Song Cheng and the others would move with the small group of cavalry, and Xue Mu was so relieved that they wouldn't run away?

"We're resting in place, recuperating, and waiting to see what happens."

Yuwen Hu watched His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rest with a smile, and turned his head to see that his subordinates were not far away, but looking at him with "expectation" on their faces not far behind him.

Yu Wenhu solved the prince's safety, and he was in a good mood, he laughed, and while walking to his subordinates, he thought to himself: "These boys are here to invite merit?" What is it good to reward them yourself? ”

Before he could get closer, several of his men had already approached him with anxious faces.

"General, what are we going to do?"

Yuwen Hu was stunned for a moment, turned his head inadvertently, and didn't notice that the prince was coming over, he was so angry and funny, these people are addicted to acting?

He snorted, "What do you say you are going to do?" ”

Several of his subordinates glanced at each other and replied, "I'll immediately go to the nearby city to transfer troops." ”

"I'm going to go back the way I came, and I'm going to get our main support."

"I'm going to find the front battalion of the East Battalion."

"Alright, alright." Listening to a few people arguing indiscriminately, Yu Wenhu said angrily: "People are so far away, who will they show it to?" ”

Several people glanced at each other, knowing that the general really didn't believe him and the others, the soldiers immediately knelt down and said in unison: "Everything said by the humble post is true, I hope the general will make a decision as soon as possible!" ”

Yu Wenhu's face changed suddenly, and at this moment he finally realized something, and he said in a deep voice: "You guys are saying, what Fang just said is true?" ”

"Exactly!"

Hiss.

Yu Wenhu gasped, his eyes widened, and he roared in his heart: "What's the matter? I had deliberately slowed down on the road, how could I still catch up with the Jiuqu cavalry? What are they doing?! ”

As soon as Shen Ye leaned against the trunk of the tree and sat down to rest, he saw Yu Wenhu walking over with a solemn face.

"Please retreat with me."

Shen Ye was puzzled: "Didn't General Yuwen just say that he was standing by?" ”

Yu Wenhu's face was a little embarrassed, and he replied: "Well, just after the spies reported, there are two teams of Jiuqu human cavalry that seem to be moving in our direction, in order not to startle the snake, I think we should retreat first." ”

"Really?" Shen Ye will be skeptical.

Yu Wenhu nodded, muttering in his heart, "This time it's true." ”
