The fire at Qikou Camp burned until the next morning before slowly extinguishing.
But the remaining embers and smoke still prevented the Tang army from getting close.
After noon, Tang Ping approached Qikou Camp under the protection of a group of black armored cavalry.
At this time, when the drone was released, it could already be discovered that the Qikou Camp was indeed deserted.
Soon, the Tang army came over and opened up the Turkic camp. Li Jing and Tang Ping arrived at the edge of the Yellow River.
"General, please lead the Qingqi to pursue me!" A general of the Xuanjia Cavalry in Li Jing's army asked for orders.
It looked like the enemy was going to be surrounded, but in the end, the duck that reached its mouth could fly away, and no one could stand it.
"Yes, General, their army of more than 100,000 people must not be very fast. We can use light cavalry to catch up with the attackers and slow down their march."
Several generals under Li Jing began to request orders. Just when Li Jing was about to speak, Tang Ping suddenly shouted: "Wait a moment."
Everyone else looked at him, wondering why he shouted stop.
Tang Ping didn't say much. Looking at the water-stained ice surface, he found a small stone from beside him and threw it over.
With a "pop!" sound, the ice surface broke, and then like a spider web, a large area cracked.
The expressions of those generals who had just said that they wanted to pursue them all changed greatly.
If they pursued with cavalry, the ice would probably crack as soon as the horses stepped onto the ice.
"How could this be?"
"Didn't the Turkic army just cross this ice last night?"
"It's not getting warmer today, so why is the ice melting instead?"
Tang Ping just looked at the water stains on the ice and felt something was wrong. It was freezing cold, how could there be so many water stains?
Carefully come to the edge of the ice, tap the water stain with your hand, and then put it in your mouth.
A bitter, salty smell confirmed his suspicion.
"General Li, when the enemy retreated, they sprinkled a lot of salt on the ice."
"Salt?"
"Yes!" Tang Ping looked across the river. He didn't expect that the Turks were so smart.
"When salt and water on the ice melt together to form brine, they will release heat and speed up the dissolution of the ice." Tang Ping explained simply.

After a moment: "Then the freezing point of salt water is also lower than that of fresh water, which is why sea water is more difficult to freeze."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Kang Sumi: "General Kang Sumi, is there such a person in the Turkic Qikou army?"
You must know that a fire last night not only blocked the Tang army's pursuit, but also blocked the sight of Tang Ping's drone because of the thick smoke.
Today, you can still sprinkle salt on the ice to continue to block Datang's pursuers.
This chain-linked retreat strategy is definitely not a simple figure.
Kang Sumi shook his head: "We usually fight, and although we also know some tactics, I really can't think of anyone under Bukhan who has such a clever plan."
Not to mention anything else, he just listened to what Tang Ping said about using salt to melt ice.
I don’t know what Tang Ping is talking about, but I just think it’s awesome.
He didn't think that the guys under Bukhan who were even more vulgar than him could understand this truth.
"Let's set up camp!" Li Jing looked at the day and said, "I think this area of the river will still be frozen tonight. We will cross the river tomorrow."
But he also knew that in just two days, Bukhan's army successfully jumped out of the encirclement surrounded by him, Li Ji, and Cheng Zhijie.
Now the only direction that Bahan can retreat to is within the sphere of influence of the Murex Company, and if the two of them join forces, it will be another trouble.
"Mr. Faceless is really awesome!"
Ba Khan left a few Qingqi on the other side of Qikou Ferry. They had just come to report that Li Jing's army was unable to cross the river and had already set up camp at the original Qikou camp.
He also didn't expect that he could escape from Li Jing like this, and couldn't help but admire him.
"Your Highness, you're welcome. We will go north along the Hun River and pass through Baidao and Yunzhong to reach Tieshan. We will probably encounter the Jinhe Dao army and the Tongmo Army. Your Highness, please make plans in advance."
Bahan looked at Wumian with a scorching look: "How about Mr. Wumian come to my tent? As long as you are willing to come, I can agree to whatever Moji Lian promised you."
The Turks didn't have so many twists and turns. Now that he had tasted the benefits of having such a military advisor, he wanted to recruit Wu Mian to his command.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. Aren't you just serving Your Majesty now?"
Although he didn't say it clearly, this was a rejection, and a flash of disappointment flashed in Bahan's eyes.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
However, he felt that these people all had desires. As long as he found out what Wu Mian liked and then followed his fancy, he might not be able to draw him into his camp.
With such resourceful people and the Turkic warriors under his command, he was confident that he could defeat the Moji Company.
Sure enough, after marching for another two days, the Turkic army fleeing north met the Jinhedao army on the edge of the Hun River.
"Chase!" Qin Shubao, the general manager of the Jinhe Road march, has been waiting here for several days. It is a good time to wait for work.
After giving the order, the army rushed towards the Turkic army to cover up and kill them.
"Send 10,000 Eagle Divisions to cut off the rear! The others retreat to the northeast!"
Bahan gave the order and decisively left behind the 10,000 eagle divisions with the weakest combat effectiveness.
Although this group of people was quickly wiped out by Qin Shubao's Jinhedao army, it also bought a lot of time for the Turkic army to withdraw northward.
Seeing that great achievements were in sight, how could Qin Shubao let go of such an opportunity and directly led his troops to pursue him.
"Mr. Faceless, the other party really caught up with him."
"Haha, who among the six armies of the Tang Army wouldn't want to capture His Highness and take the first credit? Qin Qiong is waiting for work. Our army has been running away for days and must be exhausted. Isn't this an opportunity for him to make a great contribution?"
Bahan looked excited: "No wonder Mr. Faceless asked us to rest for an extra half day yesterday to recuperate our energy. It turned out to be just for today."
The two armies chased and fled until they reached the vicinity of Baidao. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and because of the undulating mountains, even the cavalry became unable to move.
Bahan led his men up a hill, and Wu Mian said, "Your Highness, please send another two thousand men to cut off the rear."
Bahan's expression did not change. At first, those Eagle Division soldiers were all cannon fodder. Even if they were all wiped out, he would not be heartbroken.
But now the remaining ones are basically elites, and he is a little reluctant to keep another two thousand.
"Mr. Faceless, now that Qin Shubao can't catch up with us, why bother leaving someone behind to cut off the heir apparent?"
Although you can't see Wu Mian's face, you can hear a hint of smile in his voice: "Your Highness has been chased by the Tang army for so many days, don't you want to take revenge?"
"Revenge?" Bahan was stunned: "What can these two thousand men do?"
