Chapter 100

Starting from Xichuan City, it only takes four to five days to reach bo'an city.

But that can only be done at the speed of riding a fast horse. At the speed of Chen Ze's baggage army, it will not arrive until at least seven days.

Of course, Chen Ze doesn't care about the length of time. On the contrary, he prefers to walk on the road for a few more days. After all, he doesn't really want to transport grain to bo'an city.

The longer you stay on the road, the more likely you are to encounter the ambush of the Zhu Yan Empire, so as to make a lot of war achievements.

However, the idea is good, but the fact is

It's the third day.

After starting from Xichuan City, Chen Ze's baggage army disguised by soldiers has been traveling on the established supply line for three days.

Along the way, whether it was the scouts sent out or the cavalry brigade of Meng Yang behind him, all the information returned to him was only four words:

calm and tranquil!

Therefore, if this calm continues, Chen Ze reluctantly finds that he can only go to bo'an city to hand over food and grass according to the route.

Even if he wanted to, he couldn't wander around the province all the time.

No, no, it's just a waste of time and food to continue walking on the supply line.

Although the baggage troops also need to eat, the military grain consumed by 20000 people a day is also a large amount. If you go for so many more days, I'm afraid even the grain and grass ready to be sent to bo'an city will be eaten up.

What shall we do then?

Run to bo'an city empty handed and stare, or go back to Xichuan city and ask Huang Zhengyang to prepare a new batch of food, grass and baggage for him?

It's strange not to be scolded!

Chen Ze can only sigh helplessly. Who told him to be responsible for the safest supply line? It was just a chance to run out like this.

Even if he didn't want to, he could only order the troops to move on, and only try to slow down the speed.

Peace continues.

the forth day.

The Fifth Day.

Seeing that bo'an is around the corner, Chen Ze even met another baggage force on the way to bo'an city. Chen Ze was disappointed to find that, not to mention his supply line, it was the supply line closest to the east of Anluo, which was in the charge of Yang Siming. It was also the most dangerous supply line predicted by everyone, and he did not encounter the ambush of Zhu Yan empire.

Then came the sixth day.

Due to deliberately slowing down the speed, the baggage troops on Yang Siming's line have surpassed them. It is estimated that they should arrive at bo'an city now.

But even so, Chen Ze can vaguely see the towering wall of bo'an city. As long as he speeds up his steps, he can arrive in half a day.

When he got here, it was almost certain that he would not encounter any more ambushes along the way.

No one will go to the other side's main city to arrange an ambush. This is not to ambush, but to send heads!

In desperation, he can only choose to send the grain and grass at hand to bo'an city first. Although this is not his original wish, at least he can brush the sense of existence in bo'an City, which is better than nothing.

With this idea in mind, Chen Ze is preparing to order the troops to speed up the March, strive to arrive in Boan as soon as possible, return the same way, and continue to take a chance on the supply line in the name of escorting food and grass.

But just then!

Since he was speeding up, he certainly had to inform Meng Yang, who was in command of the cavalry in the rear. Compared with sending someone back to inform him, the fastest way was to directly trigger the generals set on Meng Yang.

This is the signal agreed by the two people. Once Meng Yang is possessed by Ma Teng, he will directly turn on the generals' skills to improve the movement speed of the team and come to meet Chen Ze as soon as possible.

Chen Ze, who was about to trigger the possession of stars, naturally opened the map of Meng Yang's location.

Then he only felt a flower in the corner of his eye. A small blue light flickered at the edge of the map and disappeared.

The emergence and disappearance of the blue dot was so fast that Chen Ze almost thought he longed for the enemy too much, so that he had an illusion.

He was not sure whether he was hallucinating, but after this lag, his face suddenly changed at this time, and his brain flashed!

"No!"

He made a move, and a question that had been ignored suddenly hit his heart.

It was so calm along the way that Chen Ze gradually became anxious. All his attention was focused on exploring the movement of Zhu Yan's ambush, and forgot another wave of people and horses.

That is

What about the troops back to Xichuan city?

Huang Zhengyang was the escort general sent by Xichuan city to bo'an. According to Geng Hu's memory at that time, he was the first wave of baggage troops. Later, Xichuan City successively sent two waves to ensure that food and grass were sent to bo'an city all the time.

Then, Huang Zhengyang of the first wave returned after sending grain and grass to bo'an city. What about the baggage teams of the second wave and the third wave?

In order to ensure that he met Zhu Yan's ambush on the road, Chen Ze did not choose another remote stream path in the choice of marching route, but walked along the supply line between Xichuan city and bo'an city.

Since the other party wants to make the idea of supply lines, they will naturally find out the routes in advance. Otherwise, there are six routes, but anluohang province is not small. How can they ensure to cut off the supply lines?

So since they are all on the same road, and they still go once, how can they almost reach bo'an city and haven't met yet?

This is not a chance encounter between two or three people, but a large army of thousands of people!

The goal is not to mention, the army will send scouts to inquire in advance. It is impossible to cross but don't know.

But he didn't meet anyone. Why?

Has it been robbed?

"No, impossible!"

As soon as the idea came up, Chen Ze threw it out of his mind.

It can't have been robbed!

First, Huang Zhengyang returned to Xichuan city.

You should know that he went to bo'an city in the first wave. When he returned from bo'an City, he would encounter the second and third wave baggage troops still on the road. Moreover, in terms of foot distance, when Huang Zhengyang met the second wave troops, he should be not far from bo'an City, which is at most one or two days away.

They will not deliberately slow down the March like Chen Ze, so this distance is not far from bo'an City, and it is unlikely to encounter an ambush.

As the saying goes, if Boan is a sea, the six supply lines are rivers. The more they converge in Boan, the more intensive the baggage troops will be. There will be a great risk of starting in such a place.

From this point of view, since Huang Zhengyang returned to Xichuan city without response, at least the second wave of baggage troops should be able to reach bo'an City safely.

As for the second point.

Looking around, Chen Ze saw that his baggage army had more than 5000 people and thousands of grain carriages. How large is the scale?

If you were robbed on the road, what about the body?

Where's the grain?

Where's the trace?

How many people did the Zhuyan Empire send to clean the battlefield calmly after the battle, so that there was no trace?

Is that possible?
