After Gao Gang withdrew from the battlefield with five thousand Shun troops, he was always haunted by a kind of uneasiness.

Will Vice General Chen buy enough time for them to retreat to Yangwei City?

As for completely blocking the guard cavalry, Gao Gang never thought that Vice General Chen would be able to do it.

This is fighting on the battlefield, not dreaming in bed!

Gao Gang divided the 5,000 soldiers into two parts, the front and the back, with 3,000 people in the front and 2,000 in the back.

This was done to prevent the rebel cavalry from breaking through Vice General Chen's block ahead of time and catching up to bite him again.

Even if Vice General Chen had a problem, he still had time to deal with it.

To put it bluntly, with these two thousand soldiers, the three thousand soldiers in front should be able to retreat safely to Yangwei City.

Whether the two thousand soldiers behind can safely withdraw to Yangwei City depends on luck.

With luck, the guard cavalry came slowly, and the chances of them returning to Yangwei City were higher.

With bad luck, it is normal for the entire army to be wiped out.

Having already lost 2,000 soldiers, Gao Gang was so determined that he was willing to sacrifice another 2,000 soldiers.

"As long as there are no problems in Yangwei City!"

After several blows, Gao Gang didn't think that the guards would have no interest in Yangwei City.

The rebel army has prepared so many methods, the ultimate goal must be to capture Yangwei City.

Now they encountered an ambush by the rebels, what about Yangwei City?

Will it also be attacked by rebels?

Thinking of this, Gao Gang became a little anxious, and he faintly regretted his decision to leave the city.

But it's too late to think about anything now, he can only continue on the basis of the present, and try his best to ensure that there will be no problems in Yangwei City.

So what happened to Yangwei City that Gao Gang was thinking about?

Nothing special?

It was what it was, and it is what it is now.

If Yang Yuan is willing to give up his gold and summon another ten thousand, not eight thousand, or even five thousand guards, what will become of Yangwei City is hard to say, but now?

Yangwei City is still one of the strongest cities in Shunjun's hands.

The Divine Guard could only send some scouts to monitor around Yangwei City and investigate the intelligence of the city.

Their investigation range is very wide, within and outside the city add up to twenty or thirty miles are their investigation range.

Gao Gang's vanguard was quickly discovered by them after they approached Yangwei City.

"Captain, the Shun army who left the city is back, and the general has won the battle."

The scout who was the first to discover Shunjun ran up to the scout captain excitedly and said.

The scout captain was very indifferent after hearing this, "Is it strange that the general won? What a fuss!"

Speaking of which, the scout captain jumped down from the rock and asked, "Is there any cavalry chasing after us?"

The scouts thought for a while and said, "I didn't see it."

The scout captain frowned slightly: "How many people are there in the returning Shun army, and how is their morale? Can you confirm that the Shun army leader is in the army?"

The scout captain asked three or four questions in a row.

The scouts immediately became serious after hearing the question. He recalled the pictures he saw and quickly judged their number, morale and whether they were led by a general.

While thinking in his heart, he answered the captain's question with his mouth.

"The number of the Shun Army will not exceed 3,000 at most, and at least 2,500."

Shunjun did not march in a neat queue, but his professional quality allowed him to roughly estimate the number of Shunjun.

"Morale? It shouldn't be high. Seeing their marching, the morale is not high, but it doesn't look like a broken army either!

As for the enemy's chief general? I didn't see a general who looked like a general, but someone must be in command. "

The answer is not very accurate, but it is very rare to be able to observe these conclusions from a distance.

The scout captain had an inference in his mind.

The enemy must have chosen to dock his tail to survive, but he didn't know if the enemy general escaped with him.

Still have to look at it to judge.

The scout captain and his men came to the commanding heights on the side of the road to observe the front troops of the Shun Army.

He was more accurate than the scouts under him, and he could see at a glance that the Shun army basically consisted of three thousand people, with a difference of not more than one or two hundred people.

This has already explained the problem. The Shun army did not flee after being defeated, but retreated in an orderly manner.

He took out the binoculars and looked at the center of the Shun Army team, where there should be generals of the Shun Army.

The scout captain knew Gao Gang.

When Gao Gang was out of the city, he observed through the binoculars. Soon, he found Gao Gang in the Shunjun team. He was in the last part of the team, and there were less than 300 Shunjun troops behind him.

"So far back?"

Generally speaking, the leader of an army is either at the front of the team or in the middle, rarely in such a back position.

Unless their threat comes from the rear.

The scout captain came up with another piece of information, and the general's cavalry was probably chasing after him.

They cannot be allowed to return to Yangwei City smoothly.

The captain of the scouts was calculating the strength of his troops. Because he had not received an order to intercept the Shun army in advance, he was not prepared enough. It was impossible to completely stop the Shun army returning to the city with the scouts in his hand, but it was still better to block them. can do it.

"Order all the scouts to intercept the Shun army, and try our best to delay their return to the city."

"Yes, Captain."

Sixty guard scouts gathered, ready to attack the Shun army.

There are 3,000 soldiers in the Shun army. Although the morale is not very high, the strength of the army is too great. The scouts of the guards can only harass the Shun army in various ways, making them think that there is an ambush outside Yangwei City~lightnovelpub.net~ Horror Slow down below.

Of course, it is also possible to let them march to Yangwei City with all their strength regardless of everything.

After all, there are more than 10,000 comrades in arms in Yangwei City. As long as they see the city gate, their chances of surviving will become very high.

Sure enough, after Gao Gang saw the guards scouts secretly harassing him, he immediately concluded that this was just a delaying tactic by the rebels.

Gao Gang called the messengers to spread his orders.

"Ignore the enemies in the dark, and speed up to Yangwei City!"

The soldiers of the Shun army immediately advanced at full speed after receiving the order, completely ignoring the harassment from the guard scouts.

The scout captain could only scratch his head when he saw this, "Did you see through? The enemy general is also a sensible person!"

Although their harassment had had the opposite effect, there was nothing he could do now to make up for it.

Drag it as long as you can!

"General, you have to hurry up, they will really run into Yangwei City if it's too late!"

The scout captain looked south, wondering where their cavalry had gone.

coming!

The scout captain felt the ground shaking.

He fell to the ground, feeling the shock getting stronger and stronger.

There are a large group of cavalry approaching, the biggest possibility is the cavalry led by General Ma Teng.

"Quick, do your best to stop Shun's army from entering the city!"

At this time, the scout captain had forgotten about the casualties, and directly exposed the people in front of Yangwei City in an instant.

Shunjun saw that the rebels who harassed them were only fifty or sixty people, and immediately understood their intentions.

At the same time, a thought was born in their hearts: the rebels only have so few people, can they be wiped out before returning to the city?

With so many of us, it only takes one round to annihilate them all!

More than one Shunjun Dutong had this thought in his mind.

But was quickly sized.

They felt the familiar shock again.

The rebel cavalry is catching up!
