Chapter 715 A glimmer of life?
"The good news is that Overlord Xue killed Cheng Yuan and captured the entire Governor's Mansion of the Right Army." Cheng Zheng said, "At the moment, he is fixing those traitors."

"That's okay." Mo Wenwei pondered slightly: "Let him take the right army's governor's mansion to kill us."

"Yeah." Cheng Zheng nodded and said with a smile, "Bawang Xue will definitely be unhappy."

"Tell him, there is no way, as long as he can control those soldiers and horses," Mo asked: "After this battle is over, I will treat him to dinner later."

"Okay." Cheng Zheng responded, turned around and was about to leave, but turned back and said, "Old Mo, do you think we can still see the prince?"

"Yes." Mo Wen nodded affirmatively.

"But the prince is really helpless right now..." Cheng Zheng said worriedly.

"No." Mo Wen said indifferently: "You forgot about the military division..."

"Ah!" Cheng Zheng stared and said, "Could it be that the military division has returned?"

Mo asked nodding.

"Where is he now?" Cheng Zheng became excited, and his originally pessimistic mood was suddenly ignited.

"I don't know either." Mo Wen said softly, "But His Royal Highness suddenly didn't come to Fangshan, I think it should be the meaning of the military advisor."

"So, the military advisor is by the prince's side?!" Cheng Zheng said with complete relief, "Then I really have nothing to worry about!" Thinking of something, he said, "Why didn't you say it just now? This news really boosts morale!"

"Sad soldiers are sure to win." Mo Wen said indifferently: "Besides, I don't know what the military advisor will do next. If the soldiers don't see the military advisor for a long time, it will be counterproductive."

"That's right. If you're more considerate, then I won't worry about it." Cheng Zheng smiled and said, "I'm leaving!"

"Yeah." Mo Wen nodded, watching Cheng Zheng ride away, but there was a lot of worry in his eyes... Although he suppressed the generals just now, he actually had the same worry—the government army's avant-garde The prince's only reliable army, but the military adviser ordered them to go east!Although this can throw off Hanwang's army, it is getting farther and farther away from the capital!

Although this move is to avoid the edge and survive, but it is too dangerous!Mo Wen didn't know Wang Xian's arrangement, but the situation in the capital city was extremely dangerous, could he escape death?Not only do you need the ability to go against the sky, but you also need to have enough luck... If His Royal Highness can't escape and join them, then they will all be sinners through the ages!

But Mo Wen is Mo Wen after all, the next moment he recovered Gu Jing's expression, now he is the commander in chief of the three armies, anyone can mess up, but he can't.Even if the sky is about to collapse in the next moment, you must remain calm at this moment...

.

The Zhongjun camp in the Governor's Mansion of the Rear Army has become Xingyuan, the deputy commander of the Hanwang Army.The huge sand table that the King of Han had looked at before was also moved here, and now the No. [-] figure in the King of Han's army, Song Hu, Marquis of Xining, stood there with a dignified expression, staring at the sand table intently.

Unlike Li Maofang, who had never really been in charge of his own affairs, Song Hu once served as the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi, responsible for the defense of the western frontier of the Ming Dynasty.Although it was a very unpleasant experience, it still made Song Hu understand what it is like to command the three armies, and how the battlefield is changing rapidly.

So even though the task seemed to be very simple, he still didn't dare to be careless at all, and sent all the scouts out, not letting go of any trouble...

But so far, the news is still satisfactory.Although it failed to turn the five guards and horses of the Right Army Dudu's Mansion into a yellow flag.But by accident, he got the three guards of the Chinese military governor's mansion, and it seems that the remaining four guards will also remain neutral.Calculating inside and out, the other party only has [-] soldiers and horses in total, and this is changing, but his own soldiers and horses have reached [-].

Two to one, it is already possible to win the battle, not to mention just blocking...

Just as the Xining Hou was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a scout rushed into the tent and reported loudly: "Master Hou, the other party has pulled out their camp!"

"En." Song Hu already had a plan in mind, so he looked at the sand table calmly, where all the possible routes for the other party to return to Beijing were marked. "Whether it's north, west, or northwest!"

"Yes... to the east!" the scout swallowed.

"What, go east?!" Song Hu was stunned for a moment, he never expected that the other party would make such a choice.Because Fangshan is directly south of the capital, if the other party goes east, it will only go farther and farther.Even if they turn back to the direction of the capital, they will definitely be stopped because the distance is too far, and they will be given sufficient reaction time!

If we fight now, at least the physical strength of the two armies will still be the same.But after such a toss, the opponent must be tired of the veterans, let alone their opponents.

"Then Mo Wen is also well-known, how could he commit such a taboo!" Song Hu's deputy, Xu Cheng, was also confused. "Could it be that they want to escape?" He scratched his head and said, "This is really the only possibility."

"Maybe they want to send us away first..." Gao Fu said in a deep voice: "But unless they don't care about the prince, they will always turn back. Let's not act rashly, send someone to keep an eye on them, and wait for them to change direction before pulling out. Not too late."

"Well." Song Hu felt that this suggestion was appropriate, and ordered: "Send Ying Yangwei out to join the scout team, and expand the scope of investigation to a range of two hundred miles from the northeast to the south of the capital!" Ying Yangwei is a pure light cavalry , plus the [-] scouts from the original scout battalion, there are [-] scouts staring at the semicircle from the northeast to the southeast of the capital. Under such an intensive and large-scale investigation, it is absolutely impossible for the other party to cheat.

"Master Hou is a bit too cautious, isn't he?" Several generals were a little disapproving. In their opinion, the opponent's destination must be the capital anyway, and it would definitely not be too late to change the defense after they turned back.

"Be careful, there is no big mistake." Song Hu said with a straight face: "That's it!

.

So the locust-like scouts set off, and they followed closely behind the prince's army, sending back their news continuously.

Every time a new update is sent back, the handful of green flags on the sand table opposite Song Hu will be moved.Song Hu stared at them from morning to night, watching the green flags travel a full fifty li to the east before turning to the north.

"Finally I can't take it anymore!" Seeing that the prince's army finally changed direction, all the generals were relieved, and looked down on the opposing commander even more.Because if you turn back to the capital at this time, the straight-line distance will be a hundred miles.Before the battle, the prince's army has exhausted its physical strength.On the other hand, they are waiting for work at ease, and they are twice as many as the enemy. No matter how they fight, they will win a big victory!
"..." Even Song Hu has nothing to say now, but he still can't figure it out, why is he so stupid?Could it be that all the victories before were all deceived by him?
After thinking about it, I still can't figure it out. It seems that the only way to know what happened to the enemy is to interrogate the prisoners after the victory.

"Continue to investigate!" This was Song Hu's last order. Under such circumstances, he really didn't need to rush to mobilize the army...

After another half day, in the afternoon, the small green flag on the sand table had moved to the east of the capital.Song Hu and others said, should we go west now?Who knew that the news was still strange - the prince's army continued to go north!

"My God, what are they going to do!" The generals were driven mad by the prince's army's off-line movement.Why are you far away from the capital again! "

"Do you want to go around to the north and then go south?" After Gao Fu finished speaking, he felt ridiculous...

Song Hu didn't hear what Gao Fu was saying at all, because he followed the direction of the prince's army going north and saw a place name - Zhenjiang!

'Could it be that they don't plan to go to the capital at all? 'Song Hu came up with such an idea.Although it felt unbelievable, but taking a step back, if this is the case, the opponent's marching route is reasonable.

"What's going on with His Highness the King of Han?"

"There's still no progress..." Xu Cheng muffled.

"It's broken!" Song Hu's whole body shook suddenly, and he slapped the big case hard, knocking down all the small flags on the sand table: "They're not going to the capital at all!"

"Where are you going?" the generals asked reflexively before they could react.

"Zhenjiang!" Song Hu roared, "They must be going to Zhenjiang! Hurry up and report to the prince!"

"What are they going to Zhenjiang for?" Gao Fu and others were still puzzled, "The prince is still in the capital."

"The crown prince must have left the capital!" Song Hu said frantically, "If the crown prince is still in the capital, their actions are completely unexplainable. But what if the crown prince has already left the capital?"

"They are going to Zhenjiang to rendezvous!" The faces of the generals also changed, and Xu Cheng tremblingly said, "It's really possible..."

"Whether it's possible or not, we can't wait any longer!" Song Hu roared again: "Get out of the camp immediately and catch up with them! Quick!" He almost drew his sword and drove the generals out!
As a result of Deputy Commander Song's outburst, within half an hour, the King of Han's army launched a pursuit in the northeast direction in the shape of a pin!Among them, the total of [-] cavalry even discarded all their supplies and pursued at full speed!The task they received was to bite the enemy as quickly as possible, and hold them back at all costs!Waiting for the big team to arrive!

And the whole army has received the same death order-the life-and-death war has begun, once the enemy is engaged, it will be life and death, and we must not be merciful!
.

On the side of the prince's army, although Mo Wen was calm, he was actually worried all the time.Although swinging eastward confuses the opponent, the range of detours is too small after all. Once the opponent wakes up early, it will still block their way to the north.If you get entangled, you will fall short!

It wasn't until the team passed the Langya Realm that he finally breathed a sigh of relief, because it meant that the huge positional advantage of the two sides was finally wiped out. From this moment on, the two sides stood on the same starting line!

Although the soldiers had traveled a hundred miles more than the opponent, Mo Wen was still confident that he could reach the destination before the opponent!As long as His Royal Highness can get there in time, the hopeless situation will finally reveal a glimmer of life!
