Chapter 3440
"Your Majesty, Tang Long and the others have all escaped. They should not be very fast. If we pursue them now, we can catch up with them in a short time."
"I am willing to take the initiative to pursue the enemy!"
Li Jing took the initiative to ask Ying to pursue Tang Long and other rebels.
Many soldiers are also preparing to go together, and they are bound to catch Tang Long and others in one fell swoop.
However, Tang Yu shook his head and said: "Don't chase the enemy when you are poor. They can escape for a while, but they cannot escape forever. Besides, the long battle has exhausted the soldiers. Let's repair it first and send some people." Find out about Tang Long’s whereabouts."
"Also, investigate the casualties."
Although Tang Yu and the others captured the city, they also paid a heavy price.
It would not be a wise move to pursue at this time.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Seeing what Tang Yu said, Li Jing and others couldn't say much.

"By the way, take care of all the corpses and never let them be exposed." Tang Yu said solemnly.
Both sides suffered heavy casualties. If these corpses were not disposed of in time, plague and other situations were likely to occur.
Hearing this, Li Jing and others immediately went to clean up the battlefield.
The army also began a short period of repair.
Xu Shize and Tang Yu came to the city wall and looked at the corpses piled below. Tang Yu's eyes flashed with complexity.
"Old Xu, am I being a little too cruel? After all, these are my people of the Tang Dynasty."
Hearing this, Xu Shize sighed and said: "One general's achievements lead to thousands of bones being withered. War is always cruel. This is not the most cruel thing. When your father came to power..."
Halfway through his words, Xu Shize didn't say any more.
Tang Yu also understood the implication of Xu Shize's words. When Emperor Tang came to power, many more people died than this.
"What are you going to do next?"
"The news just came that Tang Long and the others have fled to the second city and are recruiting troops to organize defense."
Xu Shize glanced at Tang Yu meaningfully and continued: "This war cannot be delayed for too long. We have already spent a lot of time here. On the other side of the Tang Dynasty's defense line, the Dachu and Nanliang armies are constantly attacking."
"Civil strife must be resolved as soon as possible. Be careful and things will change if you are too late."
Nowadays, the Tang Dynasty is worried both inside and outside, and Tang Yu has been on the battlefield, and the palace is leaderless. This is not a good thing for Tang Yu.
Tang Yu also knew that there must be an end to the relationship with Tang Long.
"Old Xu, what do you think?"
Their eyes met, Xu Shize's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he said: "Cut the mess with a sharp knife."
"This time, we will completely catch Tang Long and others, and we must not let them escape again."
After that, Xu Shize took out a map, which marked the eighteen cities occupied by Tang Long.
"If we attack all the way and Tang Long retreats all the way, it will turn into a protracted battle. There are still seventeen cities behind Tang Long that can retreat, but we don't have that much time to waste on Tang Long."
"So, in my opinion, we should attack head-on, cut off all Tang Long's supplies, and not give him any chance to rest!"
Hearing this, Tang Yu nodded slightly, thinking that what Xu Shize said made sense.
If Tang Long continues to retreat, the longer it takes, the more detrimental it will be to him.
Thinking of this, Tang Yu's eyes gradually became cold, and he shouted: "Send the order, all soldiers will stop resting immediately, and the whole army will move forward quickly to pursue Tang Long!"
"This time, we must catch Tang Long and the others in one fell swoop, and capture Tang Long, Qin Mang and others alive!"
In an instant, Tang Yu led the army towards the second city.
Storm is coming!
