Huang Botao and his army hurried towards Sifang City all night long. When they arrived at Sifang City, it was still only about three o'clock in the morning. At this time, the top of Sifang City was quiet and there was no noise. The lights on the top of the city could be seen.
It's also very dark when it's up.
"Have you investigated clearly?" Seeing the appearance of Sifang City, Huang Botao did not dare to attack the city easily.
"Our investigation is absolutely clear, and our spies are still following the enemy's army." A soldier in his forties or fifties beside Huang Botao said quickly.
"Wesley, send a few people into the city to take a look." Huang Botao thought for a while and nodded.
"Yes." Wesley responded and immediately sent five or six martial master-level warriors to fly up to Sifang City.
Within ten minutes, these warriors all flew down from Sifang City.
"How is the situation?" Huang Botao looked at several warriors and asked.
"There is no one in the military tent, the streets are in chaos, the residents in the city are afraid to leave the city, and not a single soldier is seen." The warrior said quickly.
"We can't take it lightly and give the order to attack the city." Huang Botao frowned and thought for a moment before issuing the order immediately.
When the soldiers saw that Huang Botao had given the order to attack the city, they no longer hesitated. They set up ladders and carried the wooden blocks and began to attack the city forcefully. Their movement was really quite big, but there were no soldiers fighting back at the top of Sifang City.
"Hmph! In this situation, there is an ambush in Sifang City and they have nothing to do with us." Huang Botao thought in his heart. Only then did he basically confirm the fact that there were really no enemy troops in Sifang City.
Without any resistance, the gates of Sifang City have been knocked open, and a large number of soldiers have used ladders to attack the top of Sifang City. There is still no movement in Sifang City.
Seeing this situation, Huang Botao felt a little calmer, and then he took Wesley and walked towards Sifang City.
"Young Master, now we might as well chase the enemy troops quickly, or intercept them on the road. If I really catch up with them, we can definitely eliminate those enemy troops in one fell swoop." Wesley said at this time beside Huang Botao.
"Wait, wait for the news from Pengcheng." Huang Botao thought for a while and said, "We can't be careless anymore."
"Yes." Wesley responded quickly and said nothing more.
An hour later, Huang Botao set off again with the army. Because he had received the exact news, the enemy troops in Pengcheng had really retreated at this time, and the enemy troops in front were taking a short rest less than 30 kilometers away.
Huang Botao thinks this is an opportunity, an absolute opportunity.
Fifty thousand people were left to guard Pengcheng and Sifang City. Huang Botao led the army in a mighty pursuit towards the retreat route of the Beigong Zangfeng army. Along the way, he kept sending out spies to report information. Although he acted quickly, he was still cautious.
.
Huang Botao's advance was indeed very fast. By nine o'clock in the morning, Huang Botao's army was less than five kilometers away from Beigong Zangfeng's rear army. At this time, Beigong Zangfeng's army was still marching forward, but because
The supplies they brought were quite a lot, and the rear army was obviously not marching very fast.
"Come on, let's go to the front and have a look. The army will rest in place for a while. Be careful not to let the enemy notice." Huang Botao heard the spy's report that he was only five kilometers away from Beigong Zangfeng's army, so he immediately decided to go and inspect it in person.
Fan. At this time, he was still very cautious.
With Wesley and a dozen warriors together, Huang Botao used his fighting spirit to fly into the air and soon caught up with Beigong Zangfeng's rear army.
"Everyone says Beigong Zangfeng is good at using troops, but I think it's nothing more than that." Huang Botao looked at the large group of people hurriedly moving forward in front of him and said to Wesley with a smile.
"Under such circumstances, it was actually a wiser choice that he did not choose to defend Sifang City and Pengcheng. However, he should not have brought so much luggage, and the retreat speed was also a bit slow." Wesley looked at it.
The large group of people who were not moving very fast in front of him smiled and said, "Besides, he didn't expect that the young master would pursue them so quickly."
"Let's take a look at the front to prevent us from falling into the enemy's tricks." Huang Botao thought for a while and said, "Although the fighter planes have appeared, we must also prevent the enemy from having any tricks."
"Young Master, don't worry. There is basically an empty plain ahead of us. How can they hide their army?" Wesley thought for a while and said.
"It's better to take a look and see how many people there are in this Beigong Zangfeng army." Huang Botao insisted.
"Yes." Wesley said nothing more, and together with Huang Botao, he led several warriors to continue flying forward very carefully.
After another ten minutes, Huang Botao finally felt relieved and looked at Wesley beside him, "Let's go, we will return immediately and order the army to speed up and catch up with them."
"Yes." Wesley responded and waved to the warriors who were still exploring the military situation. Soon the warriors slowly gathered back and then quickly returned with Huang Botao.
He led the army on the road like crazy. When Beigong Zangfeng's army marched to noon and planned to stop to rest, Huang Botao's army finally charged forward.
Seeing the enemy army charging towards them, Beigong Zangfeng's soldiers who had stopped to bury pots for cooking were all panicked and completely uninterested in fighting. They dropped these messy things, stood up and started running away.
He is really as anxious as a dog that has lost its home, and as panicked as a fish that has slipped through the net.
"Chase me, I will never let them go." Seeing Beigong Zangfeng's army standing up and running for their lives without any courage to resist when they saw him charging towards him, Huang Botao was slightly stunned, but he immediately ordered the pursuit resolutely.
Enemy orders.
Although Huang Botao's army was chasing very quickly at this time, the soldiers of Beigong Zangfeng had already discarded all their belongings because they were worried about escaping for their lives, so they fled very quickly, but the whole thing looked a bit chaotic.
With such a pursuit and an escape, thirty or forty kilometers had passed in the blink of an eye. Huang Botao did not catch up.
"These bastards can escape so quickly." Seeing some smoke rising from the kitchen not far ahead again, Huang Botao frowned and said angrily.
"How about we take a rest here?" Seeing the somewhat depressed look on Huang Botao's face, Wesley said immediately.
"Hmph! How much longer do you think they can endure it?" Huang Botao said with some disdain. "All the supplies in their hands have been discarded. Although they still have the strength to escape now, will they still have the strength to escape if they wait another day or two? This
In front of us is Beigong Zangfeng's main army. As long as we eliminate his main army, the rest won't be a worry."
"Yes, then I will order the soldiers to rest for a while and then pursue again." Wesley said quickly.
"Is there any place with dangerous terrain ahead? We can't just focus on chasing." Although Huang Botao no longer believed that Beigong Zangfeng had any other plots, he was still more cautious.
