The remaining thousands of captives were naturally taken back. Before the safety of this group of people was confirmed, no one could take them with them casually, lest they be turned back by others.

After simply ordering to deal with these captives, Zhao Yun and others hurried to visit the Ace Army.

"How's the situation?" Zhao Yun asked with concern.

"Fortunately, the horse was burned and it will take about a day to recover," Zhang Fei said flatly.

Zhao Yun had also fought in the Western Regions and commanded the Ace Army. Although Liu Ming didn't let him lead him for too long in order to train his commanding ability, he only commanded him in a difficult battle.

Just that one time, Zhao Yun was extremely amazed at the strength of the Ace Army. Every soldier in the Ace Army was basically at the level of a rushing general, but in this army, he could only be regarded as a small pawn. The captain of the trump card army fought, and the result was a draw.

It can be said that this is a unit that has always been a fortress, not only their bodies, but their horses seem to have become abnormal. Just look at it now, after being deprived of gasoline for so long, they are only burned, and they can recover after a day of rest. If the body is considered normal, there is nothing abnormal about it.

Letting the horses be like this, people are naturally even more terrifying. After being burned for so long, none of them were burned. Now one or two are standing there calmly, occasionally joking with their colleagues.

Only in this way can people feel that these guys are still human beings.

"I'm sorry earlier, if there were no problems on our side, the ace army might have been wiped out by Pang Tong and the others." Knowing that the other party was fine, Zhao Yun simply stepped forward to apologize.

Previously, my side was in chaos because of Pang Tong's strategy, which not only facilitated the opponent's escape, but also restricted the advancement of these ace troops. I don't deny that if they really want to leave, they can run out on the corpse of their comrades. A way of blood, but they will not do that, after all, we are all in the same robe.

"Don't mention that incident. We understand the situation at that time. Now we don't have time to be here. We should consider who should be responsible for the previous incident. Instead, we should consider how to intercept or capture Pang Tong before he returned to Chengdu. , "Zhang Fei did not intend to talk about this topic.

Everyone will make mistakes, let alone mistakes made by others. The battlefield is ever-changing, and the test is the general's ability to adapt to such changes. In the previous situation, Zhao Yun was able to do this. Zhang Fei felt that Zhao Yun was completely Comparable to himself, he is definitely a qualified general.

"Pang Tong fled this time. There are three ways to go back, a waterway, a mountain road and a road. The waterway needs boats, and the water flow is also fast. It is the least likely way for them to choose. No matter what kind of consideration they have, they will I would not choose this road; let alone the mountain road, the main road is the most spacious, but they are very easy to be overtaken by us because they lack horses, so they generally would not take it," Guo Jia stepped forward and analyzed.

"So, they will take the mountain road," Zhang Fei said knowingly.

"No, they have to take the big road," Guo Jia shook his head.

"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Fei simply asked directly, he was too lazy to use that brain, and by the way satisfies Guo Dalangzi's desire for performance.

"The biggest advantage of taking the road is that he can call the garrison along the way to resist us as quickly as possible. Even if it is only delayed for a quarter of an hour, they can run farther. What's more, Pang Tong will not Tell them to come to stop us directly, but according to the situation of the cities and towns along the way, re-formulate the strategy against us, so as to weaken our victory and fighting will step by step, and finally let us give up attacking them, otherwise it will be inevitable Will be counterattacked by them," Guo Jia expressed his thoughts as a matter of course.

This is Guo Jia's ultimate understanding of Pang Tong's character. He does not deny that Pang Tong may have a disguise, but his psychological and behavioral patterns will always be revealed inadvertently in the performance again and again, and he will gradually be able to grasp the law and then figure it out. him.

"Then how likely is it that Pang Tong will take the mountain road?" Zhao Yun was rather curious about this.

"Ten to ten, there should be a gift left by Pang Tong for us," Guo Jia smiled.

Probably thinking about the situation in the barracks at that time, Zhao Yun suddenly felt that with Pang Tong's character, maybe there was really something waiting for them to take the bait.

"So, we have to take the mountain road, you know, if we take the mountain road, we can go around in front of them about three days in advance," Guo Jia smiled wickedly.

"Military division, can you tell me the whole thing later?" Zhang Fei was speechless to Guo Jia.

Zhao Yun also quickly realized that since Guo Jia could have people deal with all the institutions on this road, Guo Jia should also have people deal with the gifts on that road.

"So, at least you guys let me finish," Guo Jia said that he was innocent, because the two people around him always liked to ask questions.

As a result, needless to say, the large army rested for 10 minutes, and then quickly ran towards the mountain road. As for the ace heavy cavalry who had problems with their horses, they would stay here and catch up after a day.

It is not surprising that there are many mountains in the land of Bashu. Mountain roads are the most common passages here. A mountain road that came out in one day.

Originally on this road, Pang Tong not only set up a lot of mine traps, but also blocked the way with a lot of rocks, so that even if the pursuers wanted to chase them, they could only stay away.

However, the trigger mechanism has already been destroyed by the members of the dragon team sent by Guo Jia at this moment, and the destruction was not fast. It happened just when Pang Tong started to retreat. In such a short time, even if Pang Tong knew that the mechanism here was destroyed, There is no way to send people to maintain it immediately.

But even so, Guo Jia still sent someone to check and confirmed that there was really no problem, and then let the large troops advance from here.

"Military teacher, I found a problem," Zhao Yun said to Guo Jia while walking.

"Just to put it bluntly," Guo Jia indicated.

"Although the mountain road is a shortcut, it is not convenient for horses to rush. Therefore, in terms of progress, we may be similar to Pang Tong's army. Under such circumstances, how should we stop them?" Zhao Yun expressed his doubts.

"It's very simple, just look at the map," Guo Jia handed over the marching map.

Zhao Yun opened it and found that there was a river between the exit of this road leading to the official road and the route of Pang Tong's march. This river was not too deep, at most knee-high. It's not difficult to roll up your trousers and walk over, but since Guo Jia has already pointed out this river, he has naturally tampered with it.

At least what is certain is that the opponent will slow down the speed of crossing the river because of the existence of this river, which in turn will affect their marching speed. As a result, when our army arrives at the interception point, the opponent has almost just arrived there.

"What gift did you leave for them?" Zhao Yun asked curiously.

"Now it's not fun," Guo Jia laughed.

One day later, Pang Tong had arrived at the river. As for the back, he had left a lot of gifts for the pursuers. As long as the other party walked this way, they would definitely make them unforgettable forever. As for whether they would leave Naturally, Pang Tong was not worried about the mountain road. There were also gifts for them there.

It was just that Pang Tong thought that since Guo Jia was able to destroy his first mechanism, he might be able to destroy his second mechanism. Considering this, he could only let the soldiers advance as soon as possible, trying to reach the exit of the mountain road as soon as possible. A counter-ambush.

Then, they came to the river.

The soldiers didn't roll up their trousers, just crossed the river like this. When they came here, they had tested the water depth once, and they knew that the water here was actually not deep. Now it is early winter, which is the dry season, so the water will naturally not be deep. .

"Haha, when I came here it was still at the knees, but now it's only up to the ankles." When crossing the river, many soldiers began to laugh.

Maybe it can be regarded as having fun while suffering, but without this thing, their lives would not have much color.

"Military division, what are you thinking," Li Yan saw Pang Tong thoughtful, stepped forward and asked.

"I'm wondering, even in the dry season, the water here can't be so shallow. It rained two days ago, so it's good if the water level doesn't rise, how could it be less," Pang Tong said Doubts in my heart.

"No matter what it is, at least half of us are going to pass, isn't it?" Li Yan smiled, not commenting on this, but felt that Pang Tong was a little too nervous.

The sound of "rumbling" immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"What's that sound?" Li Yan frowned.

"Damn it, this is the sound of the flood," Pang Tong shouted, secretly thinking that the situation is not good,
