Chapter 384 - Hunting Bureau

After thinking about it, Chen Ze still shook his head.

Even if he knew that Xilong City had a wise general like Ning Zhenggang, the final result should not change.

After Xilong City, which had been insignificant for many years, was conquered by the three main cities of Nantes, its geographical advantages were undoubtedly highlighted.

If a serious plan can be made to block Zheng Yuanyun's troops outside Xilong City, it might be a better choice for Nantes Province.

But the problem is, that's only for the province of Nantes.

What about Chen Ze?

Xilong City could not be conquered, Zheng Yuanyun had no choice but to give up and return to Ketan City, this was by no means good news for Chen Ze.

Zheng Yuanyun wanted to attack Xilong City, and even occupy as much territory as possible in Nantes Province. Firstly, he needed to make up for the delay caused by his late arrival, and secondly, he wanted to catch up with Zhuyan Empire's reinforcements. Before arriving, the Nantes province had no chance of recovering. As for the third time, he wanted to take advantage of the arrival of reinforcements from his own side, so that he would have more bargaining chips in his hand, so that he could get more in the final distribution of benefits.

But what if the troops are frustrated?

Being able to accept the loss of nearly 300,000 sword and shield troops is almost the limit of Zheng Yuanyun.

Regardless of morale and other issues, if his troops lose too much, he may not be able to take advantage of the next battle, or even lose his most fundamental advantage, that is, the advantages in the number and quality of troops .

You must know that Ouyang Lixing's troops there are not less than him, or even more, but the opponent's troops are exhausted, and they are improvised miscellaneous soldiers, which are far inferior to those he sent to Nantes after careful deployment. The province's elite soldiers and generals.

This is why Ouyang Lixing will eventually listen to Chen Ze's suggestion, even though he has a heavy hand, he is still unwilling to meet Zheng Yuanyun at this time.

But in fact, if he could prepare for the loss of troops, send troops to Xilong City for defense, and fight Zheng Yuanyun head-on, it would definitely be a situation where both sides' vitality would be seriously injured.

Ouyang Lixing didn't want this situation. After all, he was not the general of Nantes Province, and his job was still in Fengqi Province.

He can support the province of Nantes, and even sacrifice his soldiers for the benefit of the empire when necessary, but this does not mean that he is willing to be selfless for the province of Nantes when there is a backup plan dedication.

The same is true for Zheng Yuanyun.

He can give up part of his troops for a quick attack, but if he finds that something cannot be done, he will definitely choose to give up without hesitation.

Every soldier is his bargaining chip. Since it is a bargaining chip, of course he must get a profit after paying. Otherwise, when his bargaining chips become less and less, he will be in the process of dividing the big cake in the province of Nantes. , divided into smaller and smaller parts.

This is something Zheng Yuanyun can't bear.

So he will withdraw his troops decisively. After all, he has even made the decision to ask the neighboring provinces to come to help, so why rush for a while?

Chen Ze didn't want him to come back.

If he came back, there would inevitably be some intrigue again. Even if Zheng Yuanyun lost the battle again, the heavy soldiers he held in his hands were far from what Chen Ze was currently at. Chen Ze was still at an absolute disadvantage.

So, this is very good, let Zheng Yuanyun taste some sweetness, the farther you go to the interior of Nantes Province, the farther away from Ketan City, the better!

He, Ouyang Lixing, and Zheng Yuanyun, these three parties all had different intentions, and Xilong City became a victim of this intention, which finally created such a situation.

It's a pity that Ning Zhenggang has become a tragic character. He obviously has strength, but because of the situation, he finally went to defeat.

It's a pity, but also a sigh.

Chen Ze sighed, but it's no wonder that he

The so-called dead fellow Daoist never dies poor Taoist, if Ning Zhenggang did not die, then he would be the one who turned around and died. The situation forced it, and it was not a crime of war!

After cutting off the video call with Zhang Hualin, Chen Ze turned his attention to Gu Qingfeng's situation.

The situation in Xilong City had stabilized, and Zheng Yuanyun had fulfilled his wish and achieved his goal of conquering the city through the exchange of troops, so the reinforcements he had always thought would come would become a key.

The battle in Xilong City lasted for a day and a night, and during this time, Gu Qingfeng never let up. The four people except Zhang Hualin have been doing their best to hunt and kill the scouts sent to the rear.

So far, their victories are not insignificant. A total of 175 scouts of Zheng Yuanyun have been hunted down, accounting for almost half of the total.

From these people, they found seven requests for help that could prove their identities and were written by Zheng Yuanyun himself.

In other words, if the information they obtained at the beginning was correct, they are still only missing three documents.

But it doesn't really matter.

With Wang Ping's military skills continuing to play a role, Chen Ze's order to Gu Qingfeng and the others was not just to seize all the request documents at the very least, what he wanted was not to let anyone go!

And it's actually not that hard to do.

Under the guidance of the map, although there were only four of them, Gu Qingfeng and the others planned the pursuit route reasonably, dividing all the scouts into four areas, each responsible for one area.

With their own superior force, and Chen Ze's support from generals at any time, the efficiency of the four was extremely high, and they didn't give these scouts any chance at all. turned into a competition between each other.

They are competing, who has hunted down more scouts!

It was clearly a disadvantageous situation where the less was chasing more, but the four of them abruptly turned it into a hunting situation, and the atmosphere was still very active.

Chen Ze could only smile wryly at this.

It seems that people in the Xuanjia Empire have this kind of ability to make fun of hardships, and they are open-minded by nature. Meng Yang Guozi and others before, and Gu Qingfeng and others now, it seems that they will never feel despair , I don't feel discouraged, and I am always so positive and optimistic.

This emotion is also subtly changing Chen Ze himself.

He even once thought that if he hadn't gathered around him such a group of subordinates who would never give up and follow him firmly, or in those difficult days, he might not have been able to resolve the crisis again and again.

With such a group of people, it's actually... very good!

The pursuit continued, and even many of the opponent's scouts realized their own crisis, and began to consciously avoid unknown dangers.

Everyone is in the scouting business. Sensitivity to the six senses is a basic skill. Even if it is scattered stealth, but with more than 300 people at the same destination, it is impossible for everyone to take a different path. The intersection of some nodes It is also inevitable.

But on these nodes, they didn't meet their companions?
