Lei Yuan's headquarters arrived at the northern end of the entire mountain plain and stopped on the south bank of the Dangqu River.

Further north, there are undulating mountains and ravines. Everyone looked out and saw a long path looming among the mountains and ridges, with a dangerous terrain. Lei Yuan remembered that it was in the direction of the Dongli Mountain Pass. After passing this pass, it was the continuous Micang Road leading to Daba Mountain.

At this moment, Ma Chao led his subordinates to abandon their armor and ran north along the road. Guo Jing's troops were still following and chasing. From a distance, the two cavalry teams were like dragon and snake alien species running rapidly between the mountains and forests, winding and stretching their bodies, occasionally biting each other, and then distanced them.

Hu Du was ordered to meet Yang Qianwan and Agui before, and came back very quickly. At this time, he said, "General, I think he can call the gold and withdraw his troops."

Lei Yuan stared at the mountain road and refused to answer for a moment.

Hu Du waited and advised: "Hanchang City is the northernmost road hub in Brazil. Further north, there is nothing more than Micang Mountain and Daba Mountain, with peaks standing tall and few people. Unless you cross the 300-mile mountain road to take Hanzhong Nanzheng, there is no place to occupy along the way."

Lei Yuan nodded slightly.

He has also put in the mountains, roads, terrain and other aspects of Brazil County, and knows that what Hu Du said makes sense. But at first I felt a pity that I didn't want to let go of Ma Chao, the big fish.

But the Lujiang Lei family itself has been a powerful man who has been in the deep mountains for a long time, so he also understood that in this kind of deep mountains with complex terrain, the advantage of military strength cannot be exerted. Maybe Ma Chao will find an opportunity to bite it back. Therefore, it is neither cost-effective nor necessary to continue chasing.

"Mingjin will withdraw the troops. All departments can stop and send someone to notify Guo Jing, so there is no need to chase him." He made up his mind.

Immediately, a entourage held the order talisman and rushed out of the formation and rushed to all sides.

Lei Yuan turned his horse's head and looked back at the battlefield. He saw the corpse from south to north, lying on his back for several miles. Countless defeated soldiers sat next to the corpse and howled, and some injured soldiers were bleeding and waiting for death, as if they were walking corpses. Standing here, they were naturally the most casualties of the enemy, but if they returned to the place where the Lianheng formation was located, they would see countless soldiers on this side.

Lei Yuan sighed again: "I never expected that after Ma Chao failed in Guanzhong, he actually wanted to enter Shu to stir up trouble... We lost a lot of money after this battle!"

Speaking of this, he asked: "Send people to count the casualties of the soldiers immediately and do not delay. In addition, who has lost the generals?"

Li Zhen responded: "From General Li Yi, Wang Song and other Qu Chang and Du Bo, no less than 30 people were lost. In addition, Ren Hui, Wang Yue and dozens of others were seriously injured, and the medical officer... the medical officer is doing his best to treat him."

Speaking of this, Li Zhen was a little choked.

Thirty people died directly in battle, and I don’t know how many seriously injured people could be rescued.

Because Ma Chaoqiang broke into Lei Yuan's original formation, the Lei Yuan headquarters suffered the biggest loss in this battle. Many people were partners who lived with Li Zhen day and night. Such a large-scale loss had never happened even when they fought with Jiangdong troops under the Public Security City.

Lei Yuan couldn't help but feel heartache.

These soldiers were recruited by Lei Yuan one by one. This army was trained by Lei Yuan bit by bit. When recruiting and training them, Lei Yuan paid a lot and made a lot of promises. Lei Yuan told the soldiers face to face countless times what kind of treatment and rewards they would give them. In fact, it was just to make them die.

Now many soldiers are indeed dead in battle. Their death won Lei Yuan's victory, and it will surely allow Lei Yuan to receive generous rewards and promotions from Xuande Gong. The so-called success of a general is the case.

As a general, one must be tough and accustomed to using the lives of his subordinates as tools. But Lei Yuan felt that he could get used to this, but he could not enjoy it. It might be a bit pretentious, but Lei Yuan really hopes that every battle is a ladder to rebuild a peaceful and prosperous era, rather than just the price of seizing glory and wealth for himself.

From a utilitarian perspective, Lei Yuan has the dual identities of a powerful and a military general. These soldiers are also his confidence and his assets. If such victory is done a few more times, I am afraid that the disciples of the Lei family in Lujiang will have to wear mourning for every family, and the entire clan will be insufficient.

Hu Du comforted him: "Fortunately, the harvest in this battle is also very rich, enough to offset it."

"Yes, the harvest is enough to be worth it." Lei Yuan thought for a while and said, "But I'm not at ease yet. Zhang Lu, Yang Qianwan, and A Gui, both must meet."

"Who is the general going to see first?"

Lei Yuan rode his horse and started: "Of course it's Zhang Lu, this is a big man... Xuande Gong deserves him."

If you can't catch Ma Chao, Zhang Lu was the biggest gain in this battle. This leader of the ghost regime who has dominated Bahan for decades is worth Lei Yuan taking seriously.

At this moment, Zhang Lu also eagerly wanted to meet Lei Yuan.

Half an hour ago, Zhang Lu saw the fierce battle again.

Those vicious Liangzhou people were suddenly attacked by an elite force from nowhere. The two sides fought in front of Zhang Lu, with blood splattering and limbs flying. During the fight, someone tried to hijack Zhang Lu, and then he was killed by a knife. The body fell on Zhang Lu's body, and the steaming blood flowed, soaking half of Zhang Lu's robe.

However, Zhang Lu was just a demon thief without any power, but he had his unique demeanor. When he was in this state, he was not panicked.

When the battle came to an end, he pushed the body away, looked up at the people in front of him, and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you? Are you going to save me, Zhang Lu, or take my life?"

Before he finished speaking, a man rushed in outside the tent: "Shijun, don't panic, it's Yan Pu here."

Zhang Lu's eyes narrowed: "Yan Gongcao? Could it be Prime Minister Cao... No, no, it turns out that you surrendered to Duke Xuande."

He reacted very quickly and immediately realized that with the weak power of Cao's army in Hanzhong, it was impossible for him to intervene in the war in Brazil. Yan Pu's whereabouts were unknown after Xu Huang's defeat, and the only possibility was that he was in Yizhou.

Yan Pu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry too much, I am still the Gongcao of Hanning County."

Zhang Lu was silent for a long time.

Just listen to Yan Pu's words, but you can't take them seriously. Zhang Lu has never deprived Yan Pu of his position, so he is naturally the Gongcao of Hanning County. But this lord of Gongcao may not be the prefect of Hanning County.

Sure enough, at this time, two warriors with the appearance of leaders came.

One person commanded his subordinates to cut off the heads of Liangzhou people one by one, and piled them in front of the camp in blood and heat.
