The Invincible Sixth Prince

As the enemy's defense line collapsed completely, Jia Yao also led his troops to hunt down the enemy.

In order to avoid being ambushed by the enemy, Jia Yao directly ordered the Eighteen Ghost Riders to act as scouts, while she led the army to chase and kill them.

Upon learning that the enemy troops behind them were catching up, Yin Zhi kept ordering people to cover their retreat.

However, the morale of the Gaochin people had begun to collapse. Everyone was in chaos and only wanted to escape. They were completely unable to organize an effective defense to stop the pursuers behind them.

In the end, the Gaoqin army was defeated and their weapons were abandoned.

Jia Yao led his troops in pursuit all the way until their horses could no longer run. Then they stopped chasing the enemy and began to retreat towards Longqing Prefecture. Along the way, they collected armor, weapons and other items discarded by the enemy. If they encountered enemy troops that they had not had time to kill before, they would take advantage of the situation to deal with them.

After Yin Zhi led the remnants of his troops to escape back to Duyang, he was left with less than 6,000 remnants.

After receiving the report from his subordinates, Yin Zhi was extremely sad and angry.

His 30,000-strong army!

In just two or three days, the 30,000-strong army was killed by a few thousand men, leaving only these few people.

Now, he had almost no troops left to mobilize for reinforcement.

If we want to withdraw more troops, we can only draw them from Juncheng.

They started off so smoothly, but ended up like this.

The more Yin Zhi thought about it, the more sad and angry he became. His blood rushed to his heart and he vomited blood again and fainted.

It was the next day when Jia Yao and the others returned to Longqing Prefecture.

Each warhorse was hung with trophies. When they followed Jia Yao into the city, although everyone was exhausted, they all held their heads high with pride on their faces.

Even the lowest-ranking sergeants knew that after this battle, the enemy would no longer be able to attack them.

The only suspense now is whether they can wipe out the enemy completely!

After Jia Yao took off his armor, he gave the order: "Pass the order down, everyone rest for three days, and then send out the troops again after three days!"

"Youjiu, after you have rested for a day, you will immediately rush to Qingyi to start investigation. When I lead my troops to Qingyi, immediately take the initiative to contact my troops!"

"Also, while ensuring your own safety, use what you are good at and do everything you can to create panic in the enemy!"

After giving the order, Jia Yao returned to the room and began to study the map.

Next, the enemy will most likely stay put or gradually begin to withdraw its forces.

Although the enemy can no longer pose much of a threat to them, it would be troublesome for them to wipe out all of them if the enemy held their ground or successfully withdrew its forces.

The most important thing is Juncheng.

Only by capturing Juncheng could the 10,000 Beihuan cavalrymen who had already arrived in Hezhou quickly cross the Dan River and rush over.

Now is the time when Beihuan has abundant water and grass. We should quickly finish this battle so that those who should be grazing can go back to grazing, and those who should be farming can go back to farming.

At the very least, we must get them back before the autumn harvest.

She also has her own child. Although Qiqige is taking good care of her, this is the first time she has been separated from her child since she gave birth to the child, and she doesn't want to be separated from her child for too long.

No matter from which perspective, we must capture Juncheng as soon as possible.

"Dong dong..."

Just as Jia Yao was thinking hard about how to capture Juncheng, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Jia Yao raised his head slightly.

Only after getting Jia Yao's permission did Shen Kuan push the door open and enter.

"What's the matter?"

Jia Yao asked simply and directly.

Shen Kuan reported: "I just received news that the enemy troops of Shanghe have begun to retreat! My initial judgment is that they should retreat to the tiger's mouth together with the enemy troops of Heji!"

"Do you have any ideas?"

Jia Yao asked calmly.

Shen Kuan knew that Jia Yao had seen through his thoughts, so he immediately said, "I want to lead a part of the cavalry to attack the retreating enemy troops, and kill as many as possible!"

"can!"

Jia Yao nodded gently, "However, the thousands of people who just retreated need to rest, you'd better use other people to ride their war horses to do this!"

"Of course, you can also ask about their conditions. If they don't think they need to rest, you can directly lead them to chase and kill the enemy!"

"But remember one thing, chasing after the enemy is to gain advantage, don't get ambushed by the enemy!"

Although she was quite confident in Shen Kuan's leadership ability, she still couldn't help but give him some advice.

Their troops have been in the mountains for so many days and have been engaged in continuous attacks and battles, so their combat effectiveness must have declined.

We still need to remind people of what needs to be reminded.

"I will finally understand!"

Shen Kuan nodded heavily, "Then... shall I go and recruit the troops now?"

"Go!"

Jia Yao gently waved her hand, "Don't be greedy and chase too far, take as much advantage as you can!"

Shen Kuan took the order, quickly left the room, and helped Jia Yao close the door.

Jia Yao shook his head and smiled, then continued to stare at the map and think.

……

Hezhou.

Pang Jinjiu and Lu Xing hurried all the way and finally arrived in Hezhou.

The two hurriedly found Ji Ran, the governor of the two states. Before Ji Ran could speak, Pang Jinjiu said hastily: "We are ordered by your highness to go to Li to lead the army to fight. Please find a way to get us..."

"Don't worry, Generals."

Ji Ran interrupted Pang Jinjiu with a smile, "Madam Jiayao is now leading the army in Li State. She has dealt heavy losses to the enemy several times in succession. The enemy can no longer make much waves."

"what?"

"Mrs. Gayao?"

They both screamed at the same time, looking confused.

Ji Ran smiled and nodded, "I heard that Madam Jiayao led five or six thousand cavalrymen and won victory after victory. In less than half a month, she has already eaten up thirty or forty thousand enemy troops..."

Ji Ran described the situation in Li State to them in vivid detail.

Of course, he definitely had not read the battle reports that Shen Kuan passed on to Yun Zheng through him.

Some of the information he learned was told to him by Shen Kuan when he wrote to him to ask him to report to Hesheli, and some was told to him by the person who came to him again yesterday and asked him to submit the battle report.

After these victories, the morale of their troops in Li was greatly boosted.

Now, the generals stationed in Li State are discussing how to completely annihilate the enemy, and no one is discussing whether the enemy can be repelled.

After listening to Ji Ran's words, the two couldn't help but look at each other.

This...what the hell is going on?

They haven't even set foot on the land of Li yet, so why does it feel like the war is about to be over?

After a long moment of shock, the two finally came to their senses.

Lu Xing: "Even so, please ask Master Ji to send someone to take us to Xiongjin as soon as possible!"

"Don't be impatient, Generals!"

Ji Ran smiled, "I just happen to have something here that I would like to discuss with the two generals."

"What's the matter?"

Lu Xing asked in confusion.

Ji Ran explained: "It is like this. Lord Budu of Beihuan has led 10,000 elite Beihuan cavalry to Hezhou, and they are stationed on the other side of the Dan River."

"Lord Budu heard that Madam Jiayao had appeared and wanted to rush to the Kingdom of Li to meet her, but he has to lead the 10,000 elite Northern Huan cavalry now, so he can't get away."

"Before this, Lord Budu wanted me to help him lead the 10,000 elite Northern Huan cavalry, but I don't know how to lead an army..."
