Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 204 Marching Speed
When they heard the sky-shattering sound, the secret agents were all panicked.

"Hurry up and take a look, don't lose track of the enemy's movements!"

The leader of the secret service team quickly dispatched manpower to investigate.

Follow the sentry in secret, you can't rely on it too quickly. At this time, there is an accident, and they can only risk being discovered and move forward for a certain distance.

Arriving near the large army, warships could already be seen moored on the river bank from a distance, and there were still some defenders stationed on the bank.

"Did you stop on shore to rest?"

You Xizuo asked curiously.

The leader lowered his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Impossible! The other party is in a hurry to support Medog, so why would they rest? Besides, if they really want to rest, the worst thing is to stop the oars and let the water drive them to drift. They are going with the current. It is necessary to stop the ship and dock!"

After watching for a while, the leader of the secret operation quickly gave an order, and the team was divided into two teams, one went to investigate, and the other was left to wait here.

Once the investigation team is captured, the remaining team should immediately report the situation.

After such an arrangement, the leader of Xizuo quickly brought people close to the warship.

All the sentries along the way were withdrawn, leaving only a handful of defenders to guard the warships.

But the main force of the army has disappeared!

The secret agents thought about it for a while, and responded immediately, following the footsteps and sounds to detect the enemy's movements.

As soon as they galloped out on a fast horse, this small team embarked on the road of pursuit, heading east all the way.

In the north of Medog City, at those Ziwan Roads, Li Ke was still watching the river.

"Your Highness, no movement of the enemy army has been found yet!"

The spies in front kept reporting the situation, and Li Ke couldn't help being curious.

Ordinarily, the enemy army should be arriving soon, why did he send people upstream to wait and see, but got nothing?
The Tubo army was dispatched, the news was sent by Gu Wu's subordinates, so there should be no mistakes.

Li Ke still has great trust in the capabilities of the special forces.

But... the current situation made him a little unexpected.

"Your Highness, it's not good..."

Gu Wu ran over in a hurry, shouting loudly.

It was rare for him to see such a scene. This loud shout almost attracted the attention of everyone nearby.

You know, Gu Wu was born as a killer, and he usually has an indifferent face in front of everyone.Even in front of Li Ke, Gu Wu's face was only a little calmer, never showing such a hurry.

"what happened?"

Ma Liuzhi had already rushed over from the side. He had been preparing an ambush in the front, but at this time he was also surprised by Gu Wu.

Li Ke's heart trembled, and he stepped forward.

Gu Wu was still holding a letter in his hand, and he approached Li Ke in two or three steps, and delivered the letter before he could open his mouth.

Li Ke quickly took it, opened it and took a look.

At the same time, Gu Wu explained: "The enemy's main force made a temporary landing, landed more than 20 miles away from us, and is now heading east..."

Li Ke was startled, and headed east, what was that for?
He quickly found the map and found the location where the opponent landed.

That location is at the beginning of Jizi Bay, on the north side of Medog City.

If you want to support Medog, the enemy army should go south.

However, according to the letter, the other party rushed all the way, directly heading east, and had already traveled ten miles.

He pressed the map again, glanced east, and compared the directions.

Judging from this marching direction, the main force of Tubo didn't even think about fighting with him.

So... the other party wants to... cut me off?
An idea suddenly popped up in Li Ke's mind, the other party wanted to go all the way east and seize Woluo Valley.

He hastened to look towards Woluo Valley again, the place is only a hundred miles away from the mouth of the river, if he marches quickly, he can reach it in more than a day.

"Not good! The other party is going to Woluo Valley!"

He immediately informed Ma Liuzhi and others of the news.

"What? That's not bad? There are only 1 people left in the valley, how can they hold it?"

Ma Liuzhi jumped up anxiously. He subconsciously wanted to run, but stopped halfway, waiting for Li Ke's order.

Li Ke estimated the time, and the letter was sent by flying pigeons, so it wouldn't take much time.

In other words, counting from now, the other party will have to arrive at Woluo Valley one day.

Thinking of this, he asked Gu Wu again: "How many cavalry does the opponent have?"

Gu Wu replied: "There should only be one hundred thousand cavalry!"

"it is good!"

Li Ke made up his mind. One hundred thousand cavalry should not dare to split up and rush forward. His army will not be too fast.

Standing up, Li Ke immediately ordered Ma Liuzhi to gather troops and quickly fight to Woluo Valley.

"It seems that this king is going to fight Nalun Keri to the death in Woluo Valley!"

Li Ke raised his robe and said in a cold voice.

……

"Da Lun, if we walk another twenty miles, we can reach the Woluo Valley!"

Among the Tubo army, Lun Keri was riding on a tall horse, staring intently ahead.

His army did not stop all the way, and came straight to Woluo Valley.

Seeing that he was almost at the target, he was even more excited, raised his whip, and said in a loud voice:
"Quicker! We have to get to the valley as soon as possible. The valley is unguarded now, so we can easily take it!"

Hearing Lun Keri's military order, the army stepped up even more, and strode eastward.

For a moment, there was a loud sound of thumping footsteps, causing the surrounding birds and beasts to scatter and flee.

"Big talk..."

At this time, the generals under his command approached Lun Keri and said respectfully:

"Dalun, we can't underestimate the enemy. I heard that the Shu army's detection posts are very good, and Li Ke can often detect our army's movements in advance..."

He showed a cautious attitude, which made Lun Keri laugh.

"Don't worry! The general has already calculated the distance. We landed at the easternmost point of the river. Even if the two armies set off at the same time, with the speed of our Tibetans marching on the plateau, we can reach the Woluo Valley first! "

Lun Keri said triumphantly, raising his whip.

What he said is true. The Tubo people are more adapted to the plateau climate, and their marching speed on the plateau must be faster than that of the Shu army.

Even though the Shu army has undergone rigorous training and is able to fight on the plateau, its endurance is not as good as that of the Tubo people, and it must be inferior to the Tubo people for a long-distance march of more than [-] miles.

Lun Keri had long thought that Li Ke had a powerful detection system, so he kept it a secret all the way, and didn't reveal the direction of the march until before he landed.

Even if Li Ke got the news immediately, he would definitely not be able to keep up with the Tubo people.

After another [-] miles, a high mountain that gradually slopes gently from north to south appeared in front of my eyes.

The southernmost side is the entrance to the valley.

Lun Keri looked at the valley, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise again.

Behind him, a mighty 30 cavalry and [-] plateau infantry were sharpening their swords, waiting to rush into it.

"Go! Enter the valley!"

With a big wave of Lun Keri's hand, he hit the horse first and walked towards the valley.

The main force of Tubo made great strides forward and became more and more solid.

This step is heavy and powerful, it seems to be able to crush everything...
