The Era of Generals

Chapter 730 - Pursuit

Let the army go!

Under Chen Ze's deliberate guidance, the soldiers who came out of Dongping City were all indignant, wishing to tear the enemy who dared to stand in front of them to pieces!

Among them, there are those who want revenge, and there are also those who resent their peers for being unreasonable, and more of them are the anger of seeing money turned into water.

That's where morale comes from.

Originally, according to Chen Ze's plan, if he wanted to make this army a little bit stronger, he had to rely on the prisoners who had been imprisoned for a long time.

These captives were originally soldiers. When Ouyang Lixing was still there, he also discovered the problem of his weak strength, so he also trained them to a certain extent.

What Chen Ze originally wanted to do was to help these captives regain their vitality that had been lost after being imprisoned and abused for many days. In this way, they could recover a certain amount of strength.

The second is the bandit force with the largest number of people.

These bandits are used to living a loose life, let them march and fight?

I'm afraid it won't work for a while.

But Chen Ze also thought that Huang Liang led this weak army to take down Dongping City!

Although in this battle, the losses of the Huangliang troops were far greater than those of general army siege battles, but no matter what, they still captured Dongping City.

Why?

Two words, interest!

People make money and birds die for food. If there is anything these bandits care about, it is nothing more than money and women.

Taking down Dongping City, these two things are at your fingertips, so the bandits can't help but stop desperately.

Knowing this, Chen Ze naturally had a target.

Love money, right?

Then let you watch the money turn into water.

Are you angry?

Just be angry!

To deal with these bandits, we must focus on their pain points, so as to inspire another kind of momentum beyond morale that can make people desperate.

resentment.

Facts have proved that Chen Ze's idea is correct.

When they knew that all the wealth that should belong to them had been cut off by a group of unknown rogues, all the thieves descended from Huangliang were furious, and they walked with the aura of being disrespected by their relatives.

very good.

Walking at the end of the line, Chen Ze looked forward under the close protection of Meng Yang and Guo Zi.

Hope this vibe can last longer.

He wasn't worried that his aura would be exhausted before he saw the true master.

The direction the army is going, the first thing they will go to is Dongning City.

Let them see the horrors of Dongning City with their own eyes, and imagine the original prosperity of the city. If they continue to make up their minds, it would be strange if their lungs were not blown!

Chen Ze set off from Dongping City, while Chen Ming's side, when Chen Ze tried his best to improve the strength of his troops, he had exhausted two horses in a short period of time.

After receiving Chen Ze's order, Chen Ming knew that the matter was urgent, so how could he dare to neglect it?

Fortunately, when he discovered the civilians who had escaped from Dongning City, he used his money to buy five fast horses for emergencies.

As a result, this unforeseen need came so quickly that in just one afternoon, he had already consumed two fast horses.

And because the other four fast horses were galloping with him, it was said that it was a change of horses, but in fact, the further back the horse was, the weaker the horse's physical strength was. Now that two horses have been changed, the other three are probably enough. He runs for another night.

But the distance to run out is also extremely far.

When Chen Ming was speeding, he was also focusing on observing the situation along the way, so he saw that the traces that were not very clear at first became more and more clear as he kept chasing.

And consistent with Chen Ze's previous analysis, Chen Ming came all the way and found that there were many and chaotic traces on the ground, and there was no formation at all.

Not only that, but he could also see that the wheel marks on the ground were also pressed extremely deeply.

It can be seen from this that the carriages driven by these bandits must be loaded with extremely heavy things.

As for what it is...it seems self-evident.

As a result, Chen Ming became more confident and chased after him more vigorously. At the same time, he was also more cautious.

The traces became clearer and clearer, which meant that Chen Ze's words were correct.

After those rogues slaughtered Dongning City, their burdens were full, and the time was only half a month.

In the past half a month, if he was going at full speed, Chen Ming wouldn't need to chase him at this moment.

Unfortunately not.

The rogues forcibly took down the three border cities when Huang Liang was at the top, and then they should have left, but because of their greed, they forcibly beat Dongning City on the way back.

Speaking of which, Dongning City is bigger than Dongping City.

In the past, the combined strength of the three Dongping cities could barely equal the Dongning city.

But this time is obviously not the case.

If in peacetime, the geographical location of Dongping City is not as good as that of Dongning City, then it is reasonable that the various material resources cannot be compared.

The problem is, this is not a time of peace.

In front, the Bailie Empire is constantly threatening its main city.

In the back, the situation in the province of Nantes is also precarious.

Right now, Dongping City is a checkpoint between Nantes Province and Fengqi Province. Although it is not very important, it is more important than Dongning City, which is located in a more inland location.

It is conceivable that even Dongping City's troops are flowing to places where they are more needed bit by bit, while Dongning City has long been dominated by external forces.

Although those rogues only had 30,000 people, it didn't take much effort to take down Dongning City, which could almost be regarded as an empty city.

What was strenuous was the burning, killing and looting after the capture of Dongning City.

Dongning City is bigger than Dongping City after all, and since they entered this city, how could they return empty-handed?

Among the bandits and rogues, they didn't say anything about the idea of ​​putting military affairs first.

Seeing the endless wealth in front of your eyes, if you don't take it, then you are not a bandit!

If not, why did they take down Dongning City?

So a lot of time was actually wasted on robbing Dongning City, and this was the reason why Chen Ming was still able to catch up with those rogues after half a month.

One is chasing after another, but the other is moving forward slowly, and on the way, he has to be on guard against whether his peers will come and eat him, the speed of this progress can be imagined.

Even Chen Ming didn't expect that the rogues who had left for half a month earlier would be taken by him...

It was almost late at night, and in order to hurry, Chen Ming did not choose to stop and rest, but was still galloping.

But just as he was about to go to the small river ahead to wash his face and feed the horses, he saw...

Beside that small river, looking from a distance, there was actually a faint fire flickering, and at the same time, there were low voices coming along with the breeze.
