"What about Pan Feng's other troops?" Ji Ling's expression changed.”
Zhang Xun shook his head." We don't know yet. We don't know the specific movements of the other party.”
"General, that Lu Bu's martial arts are extremely high and he has few opponents. The 20,000 soldiers guarding the pass will probably be difficult to defend.”
"We should return with the army.”
"The cavalry will go first and coordinate with the defense of the pass. With a pincer attack from both sides, we might be able to kill Lu Bu's army at the pass.”
"Send out another 30,000 soldiers and set off. Even if the cavalry is defeated, the 30,000 soldiers will be enough to kill Lu Bu's army!”
Zhang Xun nodded.
"Brother Ji Ling is right.”
"This time, order all the soldiers of Dacheng to kill the soldiers of Jizhou if they do not surrender!”
"Yes!"
Immediately, the 170,000 strong army cleared their rations and 20,000 cavalry left.
After that, the 30,000 infantrymen took the lead.
He followed the rest of the army to Shouchun Pass.
On the other hand, Pan Feng and Pang Tong led less than 10,000 troops and slowly headed towards Shouchun.
Ten thousand soldiers, to create the effect of seventy to eighty thousand soldiers marching, naturally couldn't move fast.
"Report, General Lu has sent a message from Brother Fei. He has arrived at Shouchun Pass and will launch an attack from time to time.”
"General Huang and Zhang Liao have sent scouts to ask for instructions. How long will the ambush last?”
Hearing this, Pan Feng smiled and turned to look at Pang Tong.
The following plan was also discussed by him and Pang Tong.
This guy kept saying that there was nothing secretive about the following arrangements and that he had reported everything to Pan Feng. However, Pan Feng felt that Pang Shiyuan was not honest enough.
There was something hidden from him.
"Shiyuan, how should we reply to Fengxian and the others?”
Pang Tong cupped his hands.
"My lord, General Lu can attack at will.”
"If Zhang Xun's army were to return, we would definitely know in advance. It wouldn't be too late to inform General Lu then.”
"As for Hansheng and Brother Wenyuan, let them hold it in for now. It's not like they don't have enough rations with them.”
Pang Tong's tone was relaxed, as if he didn't care at all.
Pan Feng's mouth twitched as she ordered the scouts to pass on the order.
After marching for 20 miles, another scout reported,"
"Reporting to my lord, after breakfast, Yuan Shu's army of about twenty thousand cavalry headed straight for Shouchun Pass.”
"After that, another thirty thousand infantrymen followed the cavalry.”
"The 120,000 strong army is currently 60 miles northwest of our army.”
Pan Feng nodded. Everything was within her expectations.
"Is there anything unusual?" Pang Tong asked.”
"No," the scout shook his head.”
Pan Feng waved her hand." Send more people. We'll report again!”
At the same time, Ji Ling and Zhang Xun, who had been suppressing their anger, also received news that the scouts had discovered Pan Feng's army.
"He actually ran 60 miles. He's really fast!”
"Send a large army. Fifty thousand people will guard the rations and the rest will follow me in pursuit!”
"You must kill Pan Feng's entire army and take revenge for my Dacheng men's burning!”
As soon as Zhang Xun finished speaking, the messenger quickly passed on the message.
Yuan Shu's army suddenly burst out with a soaring aura!
"Kill! Revenge!"
For a moment, Yuan Shu's army was filled with killing intent!
Zhang Xun quickly gathered his troops and charged straight for Pan Feng with Ji Ling!
At this moment, all the scouts of Yuan Shu's army were sent out to check all the places within five miles of the army, just in case!
Sometimes, no matter how good a plan was, no matter how good a tactic was, it could not win against numbers!
There was no other way. Yuan Shu had too many soldiers!
Pan Feng continued to advance slowly, while Zhang Xun's 70,000 men chased after him. In less than four hours, the distance between the two armies had shrunk to 20 miles.
"Speed up a little and give up on creating an illusion. Let Zhang Xun know that we already know that he's here.”
Pan Feng rode on a horse and left the deployment to Pang Tong.
Pan Feng sped up and sent the news back to Zhang Xun of Yuan Shu's army.
"What? They discovered that Pan Feng's army only had less than ten thousand people?!”
"How is this possible? Could it be that Lu Bu did not lead 30,000 troops?”
the scout leader replied.
"General, Lu Bu has already led his troops to attack the pass. The messenger pigeon has repeatedly confirmed that Lu Bu only has 30,000 troops!”
Zhang Xun felt his head swell up." Where did the other 60,000 of Pan Feng's army go?”
Everyone looked at each other.
I don't know!
The scout leader was sweating profusely.
If this matter could not be investigated, then it would be his dereliction of duty as the scout leader. He actually let the enemy disappear under his eyes!
"All scouts, move out and expand the area. At the same time, contact the spies around Shouchun and search for Pan Feng's army!”
The scout leader quickly ordered.
Zhang Xun looked at the scout leader coldly without saying a word.
"General, do we still pursue them?”
One of his subordinates, who had some friendship with the scout leader, asked carefully.
Zhang Xun glanced at him.
"Chase!"
"It's just a distraction. If the scouts didn't find the rest of the army, then we'll confirm that there aren't any ambushes in a thirty-mile radius around Pan Feng's ten-thousand-strong army.”
The scout quickly moved and left.
Zhang Xun's army rapidly advanced, and the distance between them and Pan Feng's Jizhou soldiers kept shrinking.
"General, the scouts have already covered a radius of 60 miles and have not found any traces of the Jizhou Army.”
The scout leader was resolute.
Ji Ling suddenly stepped forward.
"Could it be that Pan Feng used ten thousand people to attract our attention and create a diversion while the rest of the troops were sent to attack Shouchun Pass?”
"Could it be that Pan Feng used ten thousand people to attract our attention and create a diversion?”
"Send the remaining troops to attack Shouchun Pass?”
Ji Ling's guess was indeed possible, but Zhang Xun wasn't worried at all.
Putting everything else aside, Shouchun Pass was easy to defend and difficult to attack. With the 20,000 soldiers he had left behind at the pass, it would not be a problem for him to deal with the attack of 70,000 to 80,000 soldiers.
Furthermore, they sent out tens of thousands of troops to Shouchun Pass day and night, forming a pincer attack with the garrison.
He will certainly kill Lu Bu's army at Shouchun Pass!
" Ji Ling, don't worry," Zhang Xun said." Even if Pan Feng sends the rest of his troops to attack Shouchun Pass, it won't matter.
One had to know that attacking a city was different from fighting in the open. Sometimes, one relied on the right time and place. No matter how many schemes one had, it did not matter.”
"As the saying goes, one man can hold the pass against ten thousand men. Our Dacheng soldiers are guarding the dangerous Shouchun Pass. How can we not win?”
Ji Ling nodded, but her worries didn't lessen by much.
After Zhang Xun finished comforting him, he sighed to himself.
"However, Pan Li has many freaks under him, and Lu Bu alone can fight against ten million soldiers. It is not too much to be careful.”
Zhang Xun immediately gave the order to stop the pursuit of Pan Feng!
Hide?
There was no need for that. Pan Feng's army suddenly sped up and gave up on creating traces of the army passing through.
Obviously, the other party already knows that we are in pursuit.
With Zhang Xun's order, the 70,000-strong army accelerated their pursuit.
