Broken mountains and rivers: Sushou restores the universe

Chapter 745 You Escaped
If Shen Muyu's army wants to return to the country, after marching northward along the main road for seven or eight miles from the north gate of Xiaocheng, they will definitely turn to the east and pass through the east of Yunguo. Effectively block the plains of one's own army, and then enter the king's land and escape from the territory of Yunguo.

At that time, Shen Guojun will not only be able to escape from danger, but Shen Muyu can also ask the emperor to allocate food, grass and supplies for rescue. Offending the powerful Shen Guo, he would still promise to give his army some reinforcements.Shen Muyu can take a good rest before returning home.

Xiao Muying deduced Shen Guojun's retreat from this, and discussed with Wen Hong before rushing to rescue Xiaocheng. As soon as the vanguard troops arrived, Shen Guo's army would inevitably withdraw, and the large army led by Wen Hong might have successfully evacuated before reaching Shen Guo's army.

And Xiao Muying knew very well that the strength of Wen Guo's reinforcements she brought was not as strong as Shen Guo's army, and they came from afar to rescue Yun Guo, so it was impossible for her to really work hard, even if she and Wen Hong's large army came to Xiaocheng to fight It is unlikely that the defenders in the city will cause effective casualties to Shen Guojun if they attack Shen Guojun together.

So Xiao Muying simply asked the large army led by Wen Hong to take a shortcut and rush to the road extending eastward outside the north gate of Xiaocheng. After passing through three or four small towns connected together, dense forests began to appear on both sides of the road, which was an excellent place for ambushes.

According to common sense, the ordinary army went deep into the enemy's territory and was not familiar with the route, panicked and still fleeing, and it was already night when they reached the dense forest.

But Xiao Muying is well aware of Shen Muyu's intelligence and calmness, and knows that even if he is escaping, he will definitely send a scout army to scout the way ahead, so the place where she asked Wen Hong to ambush is not a dense forest, but a small number of people in the dense forest. Soldiers dragged branches back and forth as suspects, while the real army lay in ambush by a small path extending from the main road, waiting for cover by the roadside.

It's just that I don't know if such a trick can make Shen Muyu fall for it.

In this way, more than 7 Shen Guo soldiers ran away quickly, and they were indeed walking the road that Xiao Muying had expected, while Xiao Muying, Xi Gaozhuo, and General Wen Guolin led the coalition forces in hot pursuit.

Shen Guojun's well-trained and strict military discipline is really not in vain. Even if these 7 people escaped, they were not chaotic at all, and their speed was getting faster and faster. The coalition forces opened up the distance, and as the sky got darker, the coalition forces in the rear could no longer see the troops in front.

It's just that before reaching the place where Xiao Muying signaled Wen Hong to ambush, Xiao Muying naturally refused to retreat, and the coalition army followed the horseshoe prints left by Shen Guojun's soldiers and horses and marched forward.

Crossing a main road between the three or four small towns, fields began to appear in front of them. Under the light of a crescent moon in the sky, everything was clearly visible, but there was no enemy army in front.

Xiao Muying rode her horse and galloped at the forefront of the army. After entering this vast field and looking far away, she didn't see the fleeing Shen Guo soldiers, so she couldn't help frowning tightly.

Soon, one piece after another of naturally growing dense forests could be seen on the side of the road ahead, reflecting large swaths of shadows on the road under the moonlight.

At this moment, Xiao Muying, who was walking in the forefront, stopped the horse first, General Lin and Xi Gaozhuo stopped afterward, Yun and Wen Lianjun who were chasing after them saw this, they all stopped one after another.

I saw Xiao Muying jumped off the horse, went to the fork in the road where there was a small road extending to the front right, lowered her head and walked forward for more than a hundred steps, then stood still for a moment and looked at the front of the road for a while, her face was ugly just now walked back.

"Master Xiao, how is it?" General Wen Guolin knew the ambush site that Xiao Muying and Wen Hong discussed, and when he saw her walking back, he immediately asked.

Xiao Muying shook her head and sighed: "Look at the horseshoe prints, Shen Guo's army has already passed the main road. General Lin, please go to the small road and call Hong Shizi to bring the troops back. We have retreated back to Xiaocheng."

"Have Shen Guojun escaped?" General Lin sighed in annoyance, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'm going to ask Hong Shizi to lead the troops to retreat."

Under the bright moonlight, Xiao Muying slowly lowered her head, and said to herself in a voice so low that only she could hear: "You still escaped, Shen Muyu, but next time..."
