Chapter 1522 Never Stop
The flow of the Han River in this section is from north to south. If it goes northward against the river, trackers will be needed in many places. This will not meet the requirements for warships that originally pursued the speed of marching.

Instead, taking the official route is the fastest way.

"Report—my lord, there are another thirty miles ahead, and we will reach Dangyang City!" A fast horse rode over, the flag on the knight's back was already covered with dust, and his face was also dirty of.

Guan Fu let out a long breath: "Have all the forged orders ahead been delivered?"

"It has already been sent there. Shi Jiayuan, the guard guarding Dangyang City, has no doubts. He has prepared food in advance. Our army can directly enter Dangyang City, and we can directly serve the meal!"

"Very good!" Guan Fu laughed and said, "Go tell the three armies and order the whole army to speed up the march and try to reach Dangyang City before sunset!"

"Here!" The knight responded, and rushed towards the rear army on his horse, shouting loudly:
"Dangyang City has already prepared meals, and the lord has ordered to speed up the march and arrive at Dangyang City before sunset!"

Shi Jiayuan, the defender of Dangyang City, was a military general with a beautiful beard. He was tall and burly. Guan Fu and the others had just galloped forward not too far, and they had already seen Shi Jiayuan leading a pair of horses. The cavalry came to meet Guan Fu.

Guan Fu slowed down the speed of the horse, and said with a smug smile: "This Shi Jiayuan is probably a flatterer, such a person is best dealt with, I'll go up and have a look."

Hearing Guan Fu's words, Han Xin couldn't help reminding: "In our current situation, we can't underestimate any opponent. Even if Shi Jiayuan is a flatterer, we can't underestimate him. Here in Dangyang City There are fifty thousand defenders!"

"Fifty thousand defenders? There are so many?" Guan Fu was startled, and then asked, "Marshal Han, how do you know?"

"When I first came to Chu State, I participated in Chu State's deployment against Qin State. I knew better than anyone else the deployment of Chu State's troops. Two-thirds of it was done by myself. !"

"Mother Xiang Yu, you are so loyal to the state of Chu, Xiang Yu wants to kill you, it is really not a son of man!" Dou Xian had a very violent temper, and couldn't help but yelled loudly.

Han Xin smiled wryly: "These are all things in the past, so let's not mention them now. Our army will directly enter Dangyang City, eat a big meal and continue to set off. Only when we really can't bear it can we rest!"

"How many days will it take us to go north from Yingdu to Hangu Pass?" Guan Fu asked suddenly, because he realized that he didn't know anything about this!
Han Xin looked at Guan Fu with some distaste, and said helplessly, "You are really courageous. You just need to ask about this matter in advance, and I'm afraid you can already get the answer."

"This won't work!" Guan Fu suddenly waved his hand and said, "You don't know that although Xiang Yu agreed with me to summon my father's old department during this period, he was very strict with my supervisors. Lu Xun had already released Xiang Yu before the incident. I removed the eyeliner who monitored me in the army, all of which were done in one go, if I inquired about the time to go north to Hangu Pass and Wu Pass at that time, wouldn’t it be unreasonable to provoke criticism?”

"That's right." Han Xin found out that a rough man like Guan Fu actually had a careful side, so he had more confidence in his heart for this almost desperate escape.

"The guard of Dangyang pays homage to Lord Hou!" Shi Jiayuan laughed and stepped forward, his beautifully trimmed beard fluttering in the spring breeze, at a glance, he looked like a personable, famous gentleman.

Guan Fu laughed dryly, got off his horse, went straight up to help the man up, and said with a smile: "General Shi, don't be too polite, this time the general was ordered to go north, and things seemed very abrupt.

You can prepare food for the army in such a short period of time, which makes me very satisfied. When I return to Yingdu in the future, I will naturally speak well of you in front of the emperor! "

Shi Jiayuan, who had just straightened up, bowed down again, cupped his hands and said, "It's really a blessing for the general to get the kind words of the Marquis. In addition to preparing rations for the army, the general also prepared some food in the mansion. Bojiu, clean up the dust for the generals, and please move forward."

"Just eat and drink in the army. The marching time of the army is very urgent. After returning from the victory in the north, it is natural to have a drink with the general at the wine table. At that time, I will definitely not return drunk!"

Guan Fu himself is a man of pride, and when he said these words, Shi Jiayuan had no doubts in his heart, and laughed and said: "Since this is the case, then of course I can't talk too much about inviting Lord Hou, so please invite Lord Hou to follow the general." Go to the barracks outside the city, where food has been prepared for the army."

"Please!" Guan Fu bowed high.

Shi Jiayuan turned his horse's head and shouted, and the cavalry who followed him turned their horses' heads one after another and turned back towards the way they came.

Han Xin rode up to Guan Fu's side, and shouted in a low voice: "Think of a way, can you trick his horses over here, with one more horse, our army's speed can be increased by one point, I really don't want to show up." , worried about being recognized by this person."

Hearing Han Xin's words, Guan Fu's body shook slightly, and he gave Han Xin a look that I understood.

The rest of the people all rode their horses and galloped, but after a while, they had already arrived at the banquet.

Guan Fu and many other generals ate and drank all at once, ignoring what other people said. He was a happy person in the army. Seeing these warriors eating and drinking, they stopped talking, but for a while. In the world, at a glance, it is all the sound of eating and drinking, and it is almost impossible to hear anyone talking.

Guan Fujun was really tired and hungry, and the last of his strength was spent on eating and drinking.

Half an hour later, the army regrouped. This astonishing speed almost made Shi Jiayuan break out in a cold sweat. He kept praising Guan Fu, saying that such a team would definitely win the battle. Going north this time, he will definitely be able to make military exploits and return in triumph.

Guan Fu naturally accepted such overflowing words with peace of mind.

So, when it was completely dark, the army continued to march. Counting from last night, Guan Fu's army has not rested yet, and it is fortunate that these soldiers were all experienced warriors.

Otherwise, in such a high-intensity march, I don't know how many people will die on the official road.

Before leaving, the army of Guanfu who was like a fire dragon also took away two days' worth of dry food for each soldier from Shijiayuan. This made Guanfu want to join the group, which meant that Mr. Meixu joined the gang.
