Chapter 137 The Earl of Tward

"Notify the troops to gather and stop chasing." Seeing that the enemy's troops began to retreat, Ye Junwen also immediately ordered to stop the pursuit.Although the enemy's troops were retreating, it was obviously not a rout.The enemy's commander is still somewhat capable. If the fight continues like this, their troops will really collapse. However, the opponent chose to retreat at this time and still kept most of the soldiers. Chasing them at this time will not have a great effect up.

"Oh! Oh! Oh!" The soldiers cheered again on the battlefield. It was obvious that they still won this battle. At present, they have won several battles in a row. It seems that since Ye Junwen came to their army They hadn't lost a game since they took command, and the soldiers' admiration for Ye Junwen reached the highest point at this time.

"Huh... what a wonderful battle." Hejiaer also returned to the main camp at this time. He had a lot of blood on his body, but it should not be his own blood. His spirit was also very excited, as if fighting At that time, the burning blood had not cooled down.

"It's a pity that the opponent was not completely eliminated." Ye Junwen said, "The enemy's commander, General Conrad, seems to be pretty good. He advances and retreats in an orderly manner, and is difficult to deal with."

"Conrad has fought on the battlefield for 3 years at your age, okay?" Hejiaer also said while taking off his blood-stained helmet, "As far as the experience on the battlefield is concerned, even I Not as good as him."

"But you still lost to me, right?" Ye Junwen said lightly.

"You kid is a freak." Hejiaer said with a smile.

"Master Legion, what's going on here? How did our cavalry appear behind the enemy's rear?" At this time, the general next to him couldn't hold back anymore, and asked Ye Junwen and Hejiaer.It is obvious that Hejiaer also knew about this matter. When they were all surprised before, Hejiaer did not show any surprise at all, which meant that this was originally the arrangement of Hejiaer and Ye Junwen.But how it is done, and why they don't know.

"It's actually like this..." Hejiaer also began to explain. It turned out that Ye Junwen found him and proposed this method at that time, that is, let his cavalry go out temporarily and attack the enemy from the other side. rear.Because Ye Junwen had already guessed the location where the enemy was attacking them, so he only needed to let the cavalry detour and go there first, and then look for an opportunity to attack.

Of course, it took some means to arrange the cavalry to go out. Considering that there might be enemy spies in their barracks, the method Ye Junwen used was to divide the cavalry out in batches.Isn't it that their troops are advancing steadily and steadily? That is, they will send a large number of troops to scout every time they advance to prevent being ambushed by the enemy.

However, Ye Junwen also knew that the enemy would not ambush them at all. It would take them 8-9 days to arrive at the main city. Wouldn't it take so long for the enemy to arrive?So even if there is an ambush, it will be a few days later.Ye Junwen did this to send out the cavalry.

In fact, they keep sending reconnaissance teams outside, sending out ten teams and returning five teams, and after a while sending out ten teams and returning five teams. Of course, the troops are returning one after another, so in fact, even their own soldiers will not pay attention to the fact that they are back. No one will count how many teams have been played every time, whether they are all back or not.Some people did notice that there were fewer soldiers, but they thought they were still investigating outside, and they didn't know which team was on the shift.

So the final situation is that they successfully changed a whole team of cavalry out, and quietly detoured behind the opponent.And this team of cavalry is the cavalry team of the First Legion. Ye Junwen asked Hejiaer before that his cavalry team is basically from the north of the empire, and the possibility that it should be related to the rebel army is relatively small. , is also Hejiaer's confidant, this is already the most credible group in their army, and if there are spies again, they can only recognize it.

In reality, there were indeed no spies. This group of troops was easier to control because they were separate troops. Ye Junwen also asked them to supervise each other. If anyone found someone who wanted to tip off the news, he would be killed immediately. However, this situation did not occur throughout the whole process. There are no spies in this cavalry.

But Ye Junwen's Second Legion Cavalry was useless, and Ye Junwen himself didn't know the details of this group of troops, that's why he had to discuss this matter with Hejiaer.He didn't know the details of the personnel in the army, but Hejiaer was more familiar with it.Otherwise, Ye Junwen could just do it alone.

"It turned out to be like this." After listening to Hejiaer's explanation, all the officers understood what was going on. While admiring Ye Junwen's plan, they also noticed one thing, that is, Ye Junwen It is suspected that there are spies inside them.

"Now it seems that my suspicion should be true. Someone did provide some information to the rebels. Otherwise, the enemy would not have appeared here to block us." Ye Junwen said, "The enemy must know Only those who know about the problem of our military rations will appear here, right?"

"Yes." Hejiaer also nodded, "Selina is right, some of us did provide information to the rebels."

"Legion Commander, I am absolutely loyal to the empire and your Majesty."

"Yes, Lord Legion, I am not a spy, I have never done it."

"It may also be ordinary soldiers, not officers."

Several generals also became nervous immediately, and immediately separated their ties.

"Serina and I will investigate this matter clearly." Hejiaer said, "But now we should hurry up and tidy up the battlefield, and then head to Edmead City immediately."

"Yes, Master Legion." All the generals nodded.

So they immediately began to clean up the battlefield. According to statistics, although they won this battle, their losses were not small. Nearly 1 troops were lost.On the enemy side, the loss is about 2, and the battle loss ratio is 1:2, which is very good, but the enemy still has an army close to [-], and the gap between the two sides is still not big.

After tidying up the battlefield, the army got some supplies, but most of them were supplies of armaments. After all, both sides were organized by the regular army of the empire, so the weapons and equipment used were basically the same and could be used in common.However, they didn't get much food, and the enemy didn't seem to bring much food and grass, so under the current situation, they still need to go to Edmead City for supplies.

"I don't know what's going on in Edmead City." Hejiaer said, "What if the enemy has captured Edmead City?"

"The enemy doesn't have the time to attack other cities except the main city." Ye Junwen said, of course, if the enemy has the strength to attack other cities, it is better to attack the main city. Isn't this a waste of time, "But now there are One question, that is, who is the owner of Edmead City?"

"The lord of Edmead City, if I remember correctly, is Earl Tward. He is the younger brother of Her Royal Highness, and he should not betray the royal family." Hejiaer said.

"But the question now is that the leader of the rebel army is the First Prince, okay? He is also a member of the royal family. If you count relatives, the Lord of Twad is still the uncle of the First Prince. This seems to be closer than the emperor." Ye Junwen said.

"This..." Hejiaer was also a little unconfident.

"Fortunately, there is also a prince in our army." Ye Junwen said.Yes, the eighth prince, Tesi Si, is still in their barracks. Fortunately, the other party has been very obedient these days and has not caused any trouble for them. They have no time to take care of this prince. Although the army is short of food, the prince's The food was the best, and it didn't bother him.This big flag is still very useful in its current position.

"I hope Earl Tward can see the situation clearly." Hejiaer said, "We have no choice but to go to Edmead City for supplies."

"En." Ye Junwen also nodded, in short, send someone over to inquire about the situation, and the troops will also march towards them.

So they made some adjustments, and Ye Junwen's troops also began to advance towards the city of Edmead in the north.At present, they can only hope that Earl Tward of Edmead City will not rebel, otherwise they will be really troublesome.Although the enemy's troops are not many, they can't compare with their 10,000+ army. However, after all, they have the advantages of the city and food and grass. It is difficult for them to capture the city. If this happens, they will be in danger. up.

But soon, halfway through the army's march, the scouting troops in front returned. They had already rushed to Edmead City, and asked Earl Tward about the situation and what the other party meant.But now they received a reward, saying that Earl Tward welcomed them very much. He said that he was of course loyal to His Majesty and swore to be at odds with the rebels.

"This is great!" Hejiaer said happily, "Sure enough, Earl Tward is still loyal to His Majesty, and now our troops are alive."

"Really?" Ye Junwen frowned, "I think something is wrong."

"Huh?" Hejiaer was slightly taken aback, "You mean, Earl Tward is already a member of the rebel army, and he is lying to us?"

"I think that might be the case." Ye Junwen said.

"Why? Is there any basis?" Hejiaer wondered why he didn't see anything wrong.

"The problem now is... There is still a prince in our army, why do you think the other party didn't come over in person?" Ye Junwen said, "It's not right."
