Chapter 420(1/2)
After listening to Luo Mu's words, Zhang Bao nodded.
Thanks to the men, horses and silver coins arranged for Hudugu and his companions to ride on, otherwise it would have been really troublesome to go back with nothing.
During this period, I don’t know what happened to Hu Dugu and the others.
After leaving Liaozhou, the contact with Hezhou was cut off. But before leaving, I learned that according to the news from Sanhe County, Hu Dugu and the others had indeed gone back, and had left with Mrs. Hu and Erile.
As for whether after leaving, he went to the mountains in Sanhe County to stay temporarily, or whether he took a detour to the grassland, this is unknown.
There is no news about Hudugu and the others anywhere else.
But for Hudugu and his group, no news may be good news.
Hudugu is resourceful and will certainly not be reckless.
"Sir, what should we do next?"
"In my opinion, those people in the grassland have either been killed or have started to turn around and run away. Should we continue chasing?"
Wu Dayong asked softly from the side.
"His governor, Ming Xiu, secretly visited Chencang and attacked us in Heyang County. We can't wait like this."
"Reciprocity is the only thing that matters!"
"Since there are many people coming out of Hezhou this time, we might as well kill them here!"
Zhang Bao said coldly.
"ah?"
"Kill the troops in Hezhou?"
"They have more than 10,000 people on the west and middle roads, and we only have 2,000 people."
"And if we fight with Hezhou, the troops in Liaozhou and Dongzhou will probably not sit idly by. There are hundreds of thousands of troops in Liaozhou. Even if there is a loss, it will be tens of thousands more."
"There are more than 20,000 people in Dongzhou, how can we fight them?"
Wu Dayong looked shocked.
"Wu Dayong, you have to use your brains to fight. Who said you have to fight hard?"
Zhang Bao rolled his eyes.
"Use your brain?"
"These are a hundred times faster troops in total. What kind of brains can kill them?"
Wu Dayong opened his mouth wide.
After being nudged by Fang Fu with his elbow from behind, he noticed that Zhang Bao was frowning and thinking about something, and quickly shut up.
"Where is the current Liaozhou Prefecture?"
Zhang Bao thought for a while and suddenly asked.
"Liaozhou Zhoumu?"
"I don't know."
Wu Dayong and Fang Fu both shook their heads.
When they came to Liaozhou this time, they got a lot of news from the governor.
Moreover, the previous news channels have not spread to the current Liaozhou side.
"I know what Liaozhou Zhoumu said."
Luo Mu on the side spoke softly.
"When I came to Liaozhou a while ago, I heard that Fu Mingli, the governor of Liaozhou, was in Jiuyuan County in the north of Liaozhou. I heard that he was worried about a large-scale invasion from the northern grasslands, so he personally led troops to the border between Liaozhou and the grasslands.
"
"The location seems to be in the northeast. When we came in, we deliberately avoided that direction."
"It's quite far from here."
Luo Mu pointed in one direction and said.
"good!"
"Don't be afraid when it's far away, but it's difficult when it's close!"
Zhang Bao smiled and clapped his hands.
"Send the order, everyone should rest as soon as possible!"
"Each person prepares three days of dry food, throws the rest here, and carries the fodder for the horses on his own. In three days, we arrived at Jiuyuan County!"
Zhang Bao stood up and said.
"ah?"
"Sir, you can't make it in three days, can you?"
"It took us seven or eight days to get here!"
Luo Mu said with a shocked look.
"Really?"
"Then don't fall behind on the road..."
Zhang Bao smiled.
Fang Fu and Wu Dayong next to them looked at each other and smiled. The old man felt guilty...
When you board a pirate ship, you have to experience huge waves together.
Although the old man wanted to return to his hometown, the current situation in Liaozhou made it impossible for him to leave by himself, so he could only follow Zhang Bao and the others first.
"Let the scouts explore the way to the northeast and find out the location of Jiuyuan County. No matter who they encounter, find a way to avoid or go around them. Don't stop!"
"Spread out the scouts two miles to the left and right and five miles in front. There is no need to leave anyone behind."
"Go straight north!"
"Follow the horse's limits and get to Jiuyuan County as soon as possible!"
Zhang Bao said sharply.
at the same time.
The troops from the middle road and the west road from Heyang County also received the news from the governor and began to surround them in the direction of the east road.
However, as they gathered all the way around, no men and horses from Heyang County were found.
Hunting rabbits in the grass has driven away many grassland tribes.
Because they were busy surrounding them after receiving the news from the governor, they did not pursue and kill these grassland tribes, but only expelled them to the north.
"Da Ren!"
"Our people from Hezhou have gathered, but various news groups came over and found no news about the people from Heyang County."
Zhao Da said to Zhu Yue on the side.
"Nothing found?"
"It shouldn't be, there are so many people, where can they go?"
Zhu Yue frowned and came to the map to look at it.
"It's not like they can't escape. They must be hiding somewhere!"
"There are more forests and canyons in the northern part of Liaozhou. Maybe they are hiding in them."
"Send more people and search all the places where people and horses can be hidden along the north direction. We must find them!"
Zhu Yue said lightly.
"yes!"
"I'll make arrangements for you!"
Zhao Da nodded.
Since the people and horses in Hezhou gathered together, all the people and horses in Hezhou have been controlled by Zhu Yue. Now the primary target of Zhu Yue and his party is the weapon in Zhang Bao's hand.
And once you master this kind of weapon, relying on the years of dormancy and planning of the governor, you will naturally be able to do anything.
"grown ups!"
"grown ups!"
"Heyang County is in trouble!"
Not long after Zhao Dagang went out, he hurried in again. The soldiers behind him were holding up two people who were unsteady.
"Zhao Da, how many times have I told you, don't panic when something happens!"
"Now that you are the general leading the Hezhou army, and you are in such a panic, what will the people below think?"
To be continued...
