"My lord, is Ba Dao really dead?"
"died!"
Shangguan Bao's heart ached: "Your Majesty, how did my son Ba Dao die?"
This sentence brought back endless terrifying memories of Xia Bao.
That grandmaster in white from Huangzhou is so powerful!
Shangguan Badao was a top-notch general who was killed by him with one sword.
The Grand Master of Laifu was also killed by him with one sword.
In front of that demon-like man, the Yangzhou generals had no power to fight back. Killing the Yangzhou generals directly caused the Yangzhou army to collapse!
But now think about it, that Huangzhou Grandmaster has been driving him away but not killing him... What is his intention?
What kind of conspiracy are you planning, old Jiu?
At this time.
Shangguan Bao saw the fear on Xia Bao's face and remained in a daze, frowning: "Your Majesty, who killed my son?"
Xia Bao gritted his teeth and said, "He was killed by a master in the Huangzhou Grandmaster realm!"
"A master in white clothes with big, scary eyes!"
Shangguan Bao clenched his fists and said with murderous intent: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will avenge my tyranny."
"I have advanced to the realm of Grandmaster Invincibility, and that Grandmaster of Huangzhou cannot escape!"
"Tonight, I will use his blood to honor my son and my Yangzhou Army officers!"
"Tonight, I will kill all the people in Huangzhou here."
Xia Bao looked at the sky and said, "Old General Shangguan, this battle must end before dawn."
"Otherwise, you will be exposed and something big will happen."
Xia Bao gritted his first tooth and swallowed it in his heart: "A little impatience leads to chaos."
"If the King of Huangzhou cannot be left before dawn, we must evacuate immediately."
"If today's revenge cannot be avenged today, then I will wait until I sit on the Dragon Throne before causing trouble for Lao Jiu."
It has to be said that after Xia Bao suffered such a big loss, he was still able to weigh the pros and cons, and his mentality did not completely collapse. He was truly heroic.
"yes!"
Shangguan Bao looked at the sky and waved his hand: "Shangguan Xiong, with 50,000 cavalry, follow my father!"
"Those Huangzhou troops who are chasing our army must have become countless small troops. If they encounter a sniper attack from our army, they will definitely be defeated!"
"yes!"
Shangguan Xiong, who was as strong as a bear, roared: "Soldiers, follow me to take revenge!"
"revenge!"
"revenge!"
"revenge!"
Xia Bao gritted his teeth and said, "I will go too!"
Shangguan Bao glanced at Xia Bao again and said more respectfully: "The final general will protect the prince Zhou Quan."
"Walk!"
Xia Bao rushed out on horseback, followed by a hundred thousand troops, pressing forward in a mighty manner.
Along the way, they collected countless defeated troops.
This time, all the defeated soldiers were verified and there were no Huangzhou soldiers mixed in.
On the way, Shangguan Xiong asked strangely: "Father, the Huangzhou is to the west of Yangzhou. According to common sense, the king of Huangzhou and his army should go west. Why are they running eastward like crazy?"
Shangguan Bao also frowned: "I still can't guess!"
"My lord, you know the King of Huangzhou quite well... Why do you think the King of Huangzhou did the opposite?"
Xia Bao shook his head, gritted his teeth and looked at the moon and said, "I can't guess it either."
"In the past, when he was in the palace, he was just a simple nerd. You could see through his mind at a glance."
"But now, his thoughts...are unfathomable!"
"Now, he actually went against me for a woman and made my Yangzhou City a state of chaos. Damn it!"
"Damn old man Jiu, you don't talk about brotherhood!"
Shangguan Bao glanced at Xia Bao and complained a little in his heart: "It's the prince who doesn't talk about brotherly feelings!"
"If you want to win both people and wealth, you must be your own prince!"
If his own prince had not snatched the wife of the King of Huangzhou, his son Shangguan Ba Dao would not have died in the rebellion.
However, since the Shangguan family has chosen to follow Xia Bao on the road to seize the throne, even if the whole family dies, they can only go to the dark side.
The Yangzhou army rolled forward, vowing to seek revenge from the Huangzhou army.
However, there were only Yangzhou's defeated troops fleeing crazily along the way, but the Huangzhou pursuers behind them disappeared!
An hour later.
They finally reached the main battlefield where the two official roads intersected.
Only then did they realize that the battlefield had been cleaned, and there were only the corpses and wounded of the Yangzhou Army on the ground. Not even a piece of cloth was left by the Huangzhou Army.
At this time.
The first ray of light appeared in the sky, breaking through the darkness between heaven and earth.
Xia Bao was dissatisfied: "They ran away!"
"Da da da......."
The scout cavalry on the left and right sides of the Yangzhou Army galloped back: "Report..."
"Your Majesty, Marshal, there are countless human-shaped haystacks on the roads to the left and right, at least tens of thousands of them."
"What?"
The summer storm hit the horse and headed left.
The sky is still hazy.
Xia Bao looked at the human-shaped haystack on the road and felt a sweet sensation in his throat. He spurted out a mouthful of blood. His fat face was filled with the hatred of being deceived: "Damn old Jiu, you fooled me again!"
"How bad!"
Shangguan Bao looked at the human-shaped haystack in front of him, fear flashed in his old eyes: "There is a famous general in the Huangzhou army!"
"The way to use military force is to use reality to make the illusion, and to use the illusion to make the reality... The human-shaped haystacks used by the Huangzhou army are so numerous in the night that it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false. How high!"
"Report..."
A sentry from behind came to spy on Juechen and said urgently: "Your Majesty, Marshal, we caught up with the Huangzhou army on the Yangzhou River. They are loading supplies and people onto the ship, and it looks like they are leaving by boat!"
Xia Bao and Shangguan Bao suddenly realize!
No wonder the Huangzhou Army wants to run eastward!
The Yangzhou River leads directly to the Qingzhou River, and if you follow the river downstream, you can directly reach the Tianmen Mountain on the border between Qingzhou and Huangzhou.
In Tianmen Mountain, one branch of the waterway leads into the Shiwan Mountain in Huangzhou, one branch leads into the underground water cave, and the other goes south, along the edge of the Shiwan Mountain, and flows into the territory of the Black Barbarian Empire.
As long as the Huangzhou army flows down the river, they will be able to return to Huangzhou successfully without any hindrance.
"Click..."
Xia Bao crushed his second tooth, swallowed it into his stomach with blood, and said bitterly: "The Du Family Trading Company has the largest fleet in Yangzhou. When the family was separated, it gave the Du family a second room."
"Now it seems that Du Yue'er has completely left no way out for the Du family!"
"The fleet has been taken by her!"
"Shit Lao Jiu, these things belong to me, you can't even think of taking them away!"
"Old General Shangguan, let me chase you!"
At this time.
"Oh oh oh..."
The chickens in the nearby village began to crow continuously.
Doors to farmers opened one after another.
After being frightened all night, farmers nearby began to timidly go out to see what was going on outside.
Shangguan Bao suppressed the hatred in his heart, looked at the sky and said: "My lord, we can't chase him anymore!"
"Now we should clean up the traces of the war so that no clues can be discovered by the imperial spies!"
Xia Bao said dejectedly: "Just follow what the old general Shangguan said!"
"Then take three thousand cavalry and follow me to the Yangzhou River to see Lao Jiu for the last time!"
"The prince wants to make a deal with the King of Huangzhou?"
Xia Bao was helpless: "I can't kill him, I can only make a deal!"
"Otherwise, I'm worried that old man Jiu will break the pot and pull me down."
"Chase me, the king!"
"yes!"
Shangguan Bao roared: "Shangguan Xiong, three thousand personal guards are following my father. You lead people to blockade the villages along the way, prohibit people on both sides of the road from going out to spy, clean the battlefield, and return to camp quickly!"
"yes!"
Shangguan Xiong took the order and left.
"Da da da......"
Xia Bao led Shangguan Bao to pursue Yangzhou River.
Will the sinister Lao Jiu wait for him?
