Chapter 620: Horsepower Exhausted

PS: Tears run for a monthly pass!

Jennings came to the scheduled meeting place and found Francis to explain the situation, even if Francis was calm and calm, he shook his hands and feet for a while, and hurriedly ordered the troops to move out and chase after the lord. But by the time the troops had assembled and waited for the order to go, Francis had calmed down, and he knew that even if he set out now, he would return to the fork in the road as fast as he could, and chase from the other road, it would be of no avail.

There are many wounded in the team who can't play as fast as they can, not to mention, even if they arrive in time, these recruits are simply unable to rescue the lord from the hands of the eight thousand elite cavalry of the enemy army. Francis closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, sketching in his mind the end of the other road in the direction in which it extended.

Gradually, Francis remembered that there was a path leading to nowhere on the official road that had just left the border of the Maritime Province, and in the direction of the two roads, Francis felt that they should be the same road, or rather the same way.

Francis took out the map, found his location, found the official road in the coastal province, looked at it carefully, Francis patted his heart lightly, let out a sigh of relief, and then ordered the troops to march northwest as fast as possible, trying to reach the fork in the official road before the lord.

The troops slowly pulled out, and Francis prayed silently in his heart, praying that the lord would not be chased by the enemy, and that he must hold on, at least insist on escaping to the official road to join him, in that case, Francis would be sure that the lord would return to the beach safely, because he had decided that even if he was the last soldier in the battle, he would stop the enemy army and buy enough time for the lord.

I don't know how far or how long I ran, Wang Yong has been so soft that he feels that his heart is about to reach his heels, but he heard Matthew shouting, "Why did the people in front stop?" Wang Yong looked up when he heard this. I saw that after the smoke and dust in front of me cleared, my men and horses stopped in a clearing in the distance.

Wang Yong looked back and found that the speed of the enemy army had also slowed down, but he still followed closely.

At this moment, Wang Yong only felt that his body suddenly leaned forward, and before he could react, he fell down with Matthew in front of him. Wang Yong finally got up, and was about to scold, but saw the war horse he had just ridden falling to the ground, snorting and panting. Constant spasms in the limbs.

Looking at the other war horses, except that they haven't fallen yet, it's not much better, Wang Yong crossed his legs while moving the almost dislocated joints of his legs on the ground, and said to the others: "Don't be stunned, come down, otherwise you will have to fall and chew in a while." ”

After everyone jumped off the horses, two horses immediately knelt on the ground with weak front legs, and the others were also sweating and panting, and some were weakly gnawing on the tender grass on the ground. Obviously, the physical strength has reached the limit and can no longer run.

Wang Yong looked back and saw that the speed of the enemy army had also become extremely slow, which could be seen from the fact that the dust was flying less and less.

Wang Yong patted the neck of the war horse lying on the ground. Then he stood up and said loudly, "Let's go, now it's up to us." After speaking, he trotted all the way to the light spirit and went straight to his own people who stopped in front.

Secy, the great prince of the Eternal Empire, pursued Wang Yong all the way. So far, he has calmed down, but there is only one insignificant trap along the way, and he has not encountered any ambushes. While Sesi secretly rejoiced, he also lamented his good fortune.

When he saw from a distance that most of the enemy's men and horses had stopped, and the horses his target was riding no longer able to move, Secy was overjoyed, as if he had seen himself ascend to the golden throne of the emperor in the light of the dawn of victory.

However, when Seci became more and more anxious, he realized that the speed of his advance had not known when it had been reduced to a minimum, and the horses were taking small steps weakly, almost no faster than walking.

Cecy looked at Wang Yong and the others who were running farther and farther away, and said angrily: "What's going on in front, why did you slow down, why don't you hurry up and chase me, don't you see that lord is in front?"

The captain of the Fink Legion came to the side of the Grand Prince Sisi and said, "Your Highness, the physical strength of all the war horses has reached the limit, and they can no longer hold on. ”

Secy looked at the nearby war horses sweating and snorting weakly, looking weak and even struggling to push, the unwilling Secy gritted his teeth and said: "All dismount and pursue on foot, I don't believe that you strictly trained elites can't outrun a group of militia." Get off your horse and chase after me. The four corps commanders looked at each other, sighed, and ordered the troops to dismount and pursue.

However, what made them happy was that the enemy's horses could no longer walk, and after the two anti-horse horses, their own side still occupied an absolute advantage, as long as the enemy did not ambush the soldiers, then they were absolutely confident that they would catch the turtle lord who dared to mention the adultery of the eldest princess.

At this time, it was possible to see the effect of the previous long-distance running training, Wang Yong, Ying Wu and Qingling naturally needless to say, they led the way and did not grow their qi and did not change their faces, and the other guards and soldiers also followed, although they were not as calm as Wang Yong, but they were not very difficult.

Only Matthew and Padraic are two guys, because they have not been trained for long-distance running, they have been out of breath after only a few steps, and they are not much worse than the war horse that fell to the ground just now.

Alva is also a junior warrior when she says this, and although her combat skills are rubbish, she has no problem running with fighting spirit. Alva was still very righteous and did not leave Matthew and Padraic behind, but Matthew and Padraic ran forward with Wang Yong alone, who couldn't lift their legs.

Ten minutes later, Wang Yong and the others finally waited for the response of the front team, only to see George and Gibbon coming over with two barely able to run. Joining on the open road, George and Gibbon turned over and dismounted, and before they could give in, Matthew and Padraic climbed onto their horses with the help of Alva, gasping and coughing like tuberculosis patients who were about to hang up.

Wang Yong wiped the sweat from his forehead and saw that there were still two horses left and no one to ride, and was about to let Qingling and Shadow Dance ride to rest, but saw two guards with blood on their legs. Seeing that the enemy army behind him was still some distance, Wang Yong personally helped to check it, and then simply bandaged the wound, and then let the two guards get on their horses and rest, and everyone continued to move forward.

The lord personally helped to bandage the wound, the two guards were already flattered, hearing that they let themselves ride a horse and the lord ran on the ground, the two guards shook their heads again and again, and finally Wang Yong officially gave the order, and the two guards gratefully turned over their horses and slowly followed behind the lord who threw off his arms and ran wildly.
