The Era of Generals

"Don't chase after?"

Li Hesong was stunned when he heard the words, and looked at Chen Ze for no reason.

"The total number of these cavalry is only a few thousand. Now that Zhu Yan Empire's plan has been revealed, we only need to convey the situation here to the cities. With precautions, they have no chance to act."

Chen Ze said in a deep voice: "Besides, the terrain of Anluo Province is not all the same as the line of Qilin City, but a flat plain. With their single unit of arms, it is really difficult to make a difference."

"That's right..."

Li Hesong rubbed his chin, and pondered: "But these people are always a hidden danger. If we don't get rid of them as soon as possible, if something goes wrong, or there are people from them in other places..."

"In my opinion, it's better to hunt down and kill as many as possible. Even if they can't be completely wiped out, at least it's good to weaken their strength."

"Also..." He chuckled, rubbed his hands together and said, "Isn't this all credit?"

Chen Ze was dumbfounded. Is this the real purpose of Li Hesong?

Although the other party does not have a general star system, the Qingyang Empire has a military aircraft department, and the generals who performed well will be assessed for military exploits during wartime.

Usually, the number of enemies killed will be a very important assessment criterion.

It's no wonder that Li Hesong came so soon after receiving Chen Ming's news. Those soldiers of the Zhu Yan Empire were military exploits in Chen Ze's eyes, so why not in Li Hesong's eyes?

"General Li, don't worry, if you do what I say, you will get more and more credit!"

After all, the other party was higher in rank than his own, Chen Ze did not force Li He Song to do what he wanted, but chose to lure him with benefits.

"oh?"

Sure enough, after hearing this, Li Hesong raised his eyebrows.

He can't trust Chen Ze's ability now, otherwise how would he get the credit he is holding now?

Originally, chasing and killing those cavalrymen was just a supplement to the military exploits that were better than nothing, but now he heard that there were even greater merits, how could he not be interested.

Chen Ze glanced at the two Zhu Yan scouts who were bound together, without saying a word, he took out the map from his pocket and spread it on the ground.

"General Li, the enemy army sneaking into Anluo Province is no longer a threat. Afterwards, we will send people to inform the cities and ask them to be more careful, and your troops..."

Pointing to the east side of the map, he said: "I hope you will go all the way east, pass the supply line defended by Lord Yang of Biping City along the way, and then join his troops to go to these places on the eastern border to strictly guard against it." Stand firm, and make sure not to let a soldier of the Zhu Yan Empire escape!"

In one breath, Chen Ze pointed out five locations on the map, and Li Hesong, who watched him point out the directions, was still doing well, but the expressions of the two Zhu Yan scouts suddenly changed drastically.

"Are you surprised how I know?"

At the same time when the expression on the other side changed drastically, without any warning, Chen Ze turned his head and grinned at the two of them.

His smile was not without ridicule in the eyes of Zhu Yan and the two of them, and one of them who was a bit more impatient couldn't help but blurt out: "How do you know?"

"you shut up!"

His companion next to him was too late to stop him, so he bumped into him fiercely and said angrily, "He's cheating on you!"

Unfortunately, it was too late, Chen Ze had already obtained the information he wanted.

cheat?

In fact, it is more accurate to say that it is a test or a confirmation.

Not long after these two people were caught, Li Hesong came to serve as reinforcements, and they probably haven't had a chance to interrogate them strictly.

But Chen Ze had been interrogated.

He also captured three Zhu Yan scouts, and also learned most of the information from Du Jun.

These five locations on the map are what Du Jun told him, and Zhu Yan's ambush soldiers sneaked into the entrance of Anluo Province.

For what Du Jun said, Chen Ze believed a little, but of course he couldn't believe it all, so he deliberately discussed the military situation with Li Hesong in the presence of two scouts, and pointed out these five locations on purpose.

Of these two people, one is calm and the other is obviously more impulsive. Judging from the real reactions of the two of them caught off guard, the information Du Jun told should be true.

Chen Ze's sudden move not only successfully tricked Zhu Yan's scouts, but also made Li Hesong startled, a little confused about the situation.

"Brother Chen, why should I guard these five locations?"

he asked in bewilderment.

"This can't be said yet!"

Chen Ze smiled at him mysteriously, then straightened his face, and said: "But this matter is of great importance. If General Li and City Lord Zheng can complete this task, I can guarantee that your contribution will be great!"

"Of course, with great merit comes great responsibility, please make sure that no one escapes back to Zhu Yan Empire!"

silence.

The usual smile on Li Hesong's face disappeared at this moment.

The more solemn Chen Ze said, the more he proved the importance of the matter, and the requirement of not letting anyone go seemed too strict.

"This...Brother Chen, the opponent is a cavalry!"

Li Hesong thought for a while, then glanced back.

Naturally, he didn't see anything, but with this action, he said: "The ones who ran away were all cavalry, and they were fast in the first place, and I sent people to chase after them after annihilating their infantry units." .”

"After such a long time, if they want to escape wholeheartedly, they will rush to the place you mentioned before my troops!"

Chen Ze shook his head and said, "No, it's true that they set off before you, but within an hour, they won't arrive before you!"

"how do I say this?"

Li Hesong asked immediately.

"Because...they are the enemy army!"

Chen Zedao: "Even if they wear the military uniforms of Zhangning City as a cover, they don't dare to ostentatiously operate in Anluo Province?"

"It was good to say before that Zhu Yan Empire's intentions have not been exposed, and they can act a little boldly, but now they have just suffered a defeat, and it is time to panic, and they are asked to go across half of the province to those few without any scruples. place, it's impossible."

"And look, General Li!"

Pointing to the map with one hand, he explained to Li Hesong: "From here, it will no longer be a plain terrain after a short distance. The further east you go, the more mountain roads and dense forests will be. Rivers must be passed through bridges, these are roads that are not suitable for cavalry, if they want to speed up, they have to follow the official road, but do they dare?"

"They dare not, but General Li can. You can lead your people along the official road in a straight line. There is no problem at all when you encounter checkpoints along the way."

"So no matter how you look at it, as long as you are fast enough and walk on a flat road, of course you will be faster than them!"

Chen Ze said with a smile: "General Li only needs to move forward at full speed, without killing the enemy. As long as those enemy troops can't escape from Anluo Province, after the battle is over, we can increase our manpower to search and arrest them!"
