Hu Chuquan was moved. He had to admire Liu Bao's ability to draw cakes!
Even though I knew it would be difficult to achieve such a perfect ending by marching forward, I still couldn't resist such a huge temptation.
In fact, defeating the Yizhou Army was secondary. The main priority was to retain the hundreds of thousands of people in Hedong County.
"call..."
Hu Chuquan let out a heavy breath and immediately made up his mind.
"Pursuit!"
"Father is handsome!"
Qubei was shocked when he heard this. He felt that he was about to watch the Xiongnu follow in the footsteps of Xianbei.
Although Hu Chuquan's character is a bit indecisive, he will not change his orders overnight.
Now that the decision has been made, there is no room for others to question it.
"alright!"
"King Zuo Xian, the future of the Xiongnu depends on this battle!"
Liu Bao nodded heavily, feeling that the blood in his body was boiling.
"Chanyu, don't worry, this battle will announce to the world the rise of the Huns!"
After Liu Bao finished speaking, he waved his hand and immediately rushed forward.
"My sons, follow me and charge forward!"
The Xiongnu army moved upon hearing the order and followed Liu Bao's footsteps.
Looking at the retreating army, Qubei felt extremely depressed.
"Father, Liu Bao has fallen into the Yizhou people's schemes every time, and maybe this time he is also part of the Yizhou people's schemes."
Qubei was so unhappy that he would rather endure Huchuquan's scolding than complain a few words.
Unexpectedly, Hu Chuquan not only did not blame him, but instead showed a sneer.
"Haha, let him rush. If he doesn't rush, how can he see through the Yizhou people's tricks?"
Qubei looked surprised, and Huchuquan's reaction was completely beyond his expectation.
"Father, you...?"
"Bier, the people of Hedong County are very important. We cannot let the Yizhou Army move them away."
"Lead the army to follow Liu Bao. If there is an ambush, let him lead it out for us!"
Qubei didn't expect that his father Hu Chuquan actually meant this, and he became excited at the same time.
"As you command!"
Liu Bao, who was leading the army in pursuit at the front, naturally didn't know the viciousness of Huchuquan behind him, and he was extremely excited at this moment.
After passing the camp set up by the Yizhou Army, Liu Bao discovered another obscure loophole.
The Yizhou Army has no troops stationed in this camp at all!
This further confirmed Liu Bao's suspicion.
This camp must have been designed to slow down the Xiongnu's advance and provide them with a place to rest!
The moonlight is exceptionally bright tonight, and the earth has not become particularly dark.
This also seemed to give Liu Bao a hint that even God was providing convenience for him.
Although he was traveling very fast, Liu Bao was still beating the horse on his crotch desperately.
"Quick, speed up!"
Liu Bao had only one idea in his mind: to catch up with the Yizhou army and destroy them.
Time passed rapidly, and the light began to gradually drive away the darkness.
The Huns army has been chasing all night!
Not only did Liu Bao not see any Yizhou troops, he stopped again.
After taking a breather, Huchuquan and Qubei arrived one after another.
"King Zuoxian, why did you stop again?"
Liu Bao pointed forward and said helplessly,
"Chanyu, there is a fork in the road here. We have no trace of the Yizhou Army. We don't know which way to go..."
After a lot of chasing, it was still a step too late!
Now is the time to make a decision.
One wrong move and all your efforts will be in vain.
"Where is this?"
Huchuquan originally knew Hedong County well, but this night's attack made him dizzy and lost his way.
"Chanyu, we have already passed Anyi. From here, we can go west along Qishui to Zuo Fengyi, and go south to cross the Yellow River and go to Hongnong County."
Liu Bao did not get lost, he was always paying attention to the road.
Especially when passing by Anyi County, Liu Bao took a few more glances.
Huchuquan thought for a while, then pointed south.
"Go here!"
"Why?"
Which direction to pursue is an important decision related to victory or defeat, and Liu Bao must get a reason.
"King Zuo Xian, the road to the west along Qishui is smooth, but the journey is long. Going south through the mountains can lead directly to the Yellow River, which is three times closer than going west!"
"The mountains are rugged and not conducive to cavalry marching. Where do you think the Yizhou Army will go?"
Liu Bao nodded with some understanding.
This kind of life-and-death choice must be based on safety.
Doing the opposite will definitely not be practical here.
"Okay, then let's chase south!"
Liu Bao waved his hand and started off again with the song at a high speed without any feeling of fatigue.
Everyone had been running around all night, and their energy and body had been greatly exhausted.
Huchuquan could not help but admire this momentum alone.
However, Liu Bao's move to boost morale was not admired by Qu Bei.
"Huh, savage..."
Fortunately, Qubei did not abandon his official duties for personal reasons. After making some remarks, he also led his soldiers to chase after him.
After going south into the mountains, the Huns army immediately made new discoveries.
On the not-so-wide road, discarded items began to appear gradually.
Shoes, clothing, packages, etc.
This all tells Liu Bao that the people are at the front!
Let's see where you go!
Liu Bao was overjoyed, and then ordered the soldiers again.
"Quick! Speed up! The Yizhou Army can't run away!"
However, Liu Bao's urging had no obvious effect this time.
After entering the mountainous area, the war horse's mobility dropped significantly.
After a night of running, both the soldiers and the horses began to lose their physical strength.
Fortunately, I took a break just now at the fork in the road, otherwise the speed would have been even lower.
The road from Anyi to Dayang is blocked by Wushan Mountain, making it impossible to connect the two nearest counties.
If you go around, it's almost the same as walking through paint.
Fortunately, there are roads in Mount Wu that are passable, but the roads in the mountains are rugged and narrow, and the deeper you go into Mount Wu, the more complicated the roads become!
Liu Bao took the lead and always rushed to the front.
But while driving on such a difficult road, I was still complaining in my heart.
More and more items were dropped by the people on both sides, but there was still no trace of them, which made Liu Bao even more anxious.
Every time he saw a glimmer of hope, he could not see any results in the end, which made Liu Bao feel itchy and impatient.
The more this happens, the more Liu Bao wants to succeed.
Be the first person on the road to the rise of the Huns!
Unfortunately, an hour later, Liu Bao had to bow to reality and finally stopped in a wide valley.
If the pursuit continues like this, if the Yizhou army fails to catch up, the horses of the Xiongnu army will run to death!
"Damn it! These Yizhou people can really run away!"
Liu Bao cursed loudly, then got off his horse and wanted to find a rock to vent his anger.
Who would have thought that a sudden dizziness came over his head, and Liu Bao almost fell to the ground!
I was so tired that I didn't rest for a whole night.
"King Xian of the Left, the soldiers of Shan Yu and King Xian of the Right behind us have fallen far behind."
After listening to the soldier's report, Liu Bao waved his hand casually, which was what he expected.
With such a fast marching speed, how could Huchuquan and Qubei catch up?
At this moment, there was a sudden sound from all around.
