When Wu Yuan received Hao Daozong's order, he had already entered Zi County with his cavalry.

After chasing Han Chao for two days, Wu Yuan finally found out that he had been cheated.

"The front must not be the main force of the rebel cavalry, we have been tricked!"

Wu Yuan stopped the horse and raised his whip to stop the subordinates behind him.

"Give up on chasing the rebels in front, and go to the surrounding counties to track down the main force of the rebels!"

Wu Yuan recalled Bai Ping, and he said to Bai Ping seriously: "Brother Ping, what's going on?"

He didn't believe that Bai Ping didn't see the problem, he knew his brother's ability too well, that's why he brought him back.

Bai Ping's expression was very calm, as if he wasn't worried about Wu Yuan blaming him at all.

"General, there are at least 500 rebel cavalry ahead, and catching up to them is no small feat."

After listening to his explanation, Wu Yuan's expression became more serious. If someone came in at this time, they would definitely think that the two of them were about to talk to each other.

It's already been discussed!

But in fact, neither of them lost their minds, Bai Ping was always calm, although Wu Yuan was a little angry, although Wu Yuan was angry, he didn't explode.

He wanted to know what Bai Ping was thinking.

"Why?"

Wu Yuan calmed himself down and asked Bai Ping.

Seeing Wu Yuan calm down, Bai Ping gradually dissipated the worry in his heart.

"What do you think of the combat effectiveness of the rebel cavalry?"

Bai Ping didn't answer Wu Yuan's question directly, but asked a rhetorical question.

Wu Yuan replied directly: "Very strong, not even weaker than barbarian cavalry."

The dignified look showed that he was definitely not joking at the moment.

In fact, both of them had a vague premonition in their hearts that the rebel cavalry was stronger than the barbarian cavalry, and naturally they were also stronger than their frontier cavalry.

The two have been brothers for many years, but they don't want to tell this cruel reality.

But they can understand each other's meaning.

At the same time, Wu Yuan also somewhat understood Bai Ping's thoughts, but that didn't mean he agreed.

The rebel cavalry is not weak, but his cavalry is not weak either!

And Wu Yuan said long ago that he was not fighting alone.

Obviously, Bai Ping had a disagreement with him.

 …

I don't know how the two reached a consensus in the end. Anyway, Wu Yuan did not continue to pursue Han Chao, but looked for Ma Teng's main force.

Before he found Ma Teng's main force, a letter of help from Zi County was sent to his camp.

"Zi County is besieged, and the attacker is a surprise army!"

It was like a thunderclap resounding in Wu Yuan's ears.

He immediately ordered people to pack up the camp, and rode his horse towards Zi County.

"Rush to Zi County immediately!"

He didn't mention support, and whether he wanted to enter Zi County or not depended on the specific situation.

Because he didn't know Ma Teng's plan, Wu Yuan slowed down his march after entering Zi County, until Hao Daozong's order was delivered to him.

Only then did he speed up to Zi County with the cavalry.

Hao Daozong's order to him included the battle report of the general of Zi County. Wu Yuan didn't know how he should feel after seeing Ma Teng's defeat in Zi County.

Happy?

It seems a little bit, but not as happy as imagined.

pity?

There are also some, such opponents are not defeated by themselves, and it is indeed a pity.

There are also some complicated feelings growing in my heart, which made Wu Yuan think of a lot.

Cavalry should not be used to siege cities, whether it is barbarian cavalry or stronger rebel cavalry, they will be defeated in front of the city.

"Wooden Pao, the Zi County guard is a bit quick-witted."

It is still difficult to defend the city with wooden cannons. First of all, the gunpowder used in wooden cannons takes time to make, and then the barrel of wooden cannons has limited bearing capacity. It can't last for a few days even if you fire a few shots a day.

The cities guarded by the frontier army also have wooden cannons, more precisely, wooden iron cannons, and iron cannons made of pure iron, but they seem to have the same effect as wooden iron cannons.

The accident probability of iron cannons is even higher than that of wooden iron cannons, and most of them were replaced by wooden iron cannons later.

As long as the defender of Zixian County calculated the timing of using the wooden cannon, it would be easy to defend Zixian County for ten days.

If Wu Yuan was the leader of the rebel cavalry, he should be thinking about the route of retreat at this time.

The Shun army's territory was surrounded for hundreds of miles. It was not easy to go around the city and attack a granary in the rear, and it was even more difficult to retreat after being exposed!

Plus now that he is here, where are the rebels going to flee?

Because Qin Zhan suspected that Zixian County was a trap, he couldn't march faster. He had to wait for Tanqi to find out the information about Zixian County before deciding whether to rush to Zixian County with all his strength.

In case it was really a trap, he would have time to react.

Wu Yuan's decision-making was completely different from Qin Zhan's. After receiving the order, he immediately led his cavalry to the county town of Zi County, changing his caution when he first entered Zi County.

Wu Yuan: Still cautious? Be careful and the rebels will run away!

Letting him let go of the rebel cavalry was worse than killing him.

Wu Yuan made up his mind, even if he suffered heavy casualties, he would keep the rebel cavalry behind!

To avoid future troubles!

In fact, Wu Yuan's thinking was quite correct. If Ma Teng could be encircled and wiped out in Zi County, it would be worthwhile even if his 5,000 frontier cavalry were completely killed.

It's just hard!

They couldn't catch up with the imperial war horses. As long as Ma Teng was willing to cut off his tail to survive, it would be difficult for anyone to wipe out the cavalry of the Divine Guard.

And this time, Ma Teng didn't need to cut his tail to survive.

After finding out about Wu Yuan's actions, Ma Teng was very happy and heaved a sigh of relief.

finally come!

If I don't come, I, the cavalry general, will have to become the leader of the horse bandit.

When sneaking in, the imperial warhorse carried two warriors and did not carry any more food.

With 8,000 imperial war horses and 15,000 divine guards eating horse chews, they consume a lot of food and grass every day.

Ma Teng was also deeply influenced by his lord Yang Yuan, so he didn't do anything to raid the common people. Now he can't buy enough food even though he has money.

It's too painful to have money that can't be spent!

If he was hiding for a few days, Ma Teng would really be the leader of the horse bandits, trying to find a way to beat up the local tyrants and grab food.

Thank you Wuyuan old iron, you came at the right time.

As long as Wuyuan is entangled, unless Hao Daozong is willing to give up the five thousand cavalry. ,

Gong Yi believed that Hao Daozong would not give up the five thousand cavalry, because without the five thousand cavalry, he would always be troubled by Ma Teng's cavalry in the decisive battle in the future.

So he can only send troops to rescue, and he can't go to war. When Gong Yi's 200,000 troops are just a display?

As long as Hao Daozong dared to withdraw more than 50,000 troops, Gong Yi would dare to launch a decisive battle.

Yang Yuan is not far away from the county seat, and Gong Yi's confidence is infinitely sufficient.

Even if something unexpected happens, Yang Yuan can at least remain undefeated.

Who dares to fight the undefeated decisive battle!

Gong Yi just wanted to gain more victories.

Poor Wu Yuan didn't know that he had half stepped into the grave that Ma Teng had dug for him. He also followed the trail of Ma Teng with high spirits.

Some people miss and you can't stop them.

If Wu Yuan had Qin Zhan's vigilance, he wouldn't have been taken in by Ma Teng so quickly!

The road is chosen by myself, and I have to walk through it with tears in my eyes.
