I have to say that Zhu Zhen's situation has improved now.

His first thought was rescue.

When he set out, he led 30,000 Xuanjia troops to test the enemy, and this test revealed the true meaning.

What would be the consequences of being chased by more than 100,000 cavalry?

The Xuanjia Army is not a light cavalry, and its normal speed is certainly not as fast as the enemy's.

It will be difficult to escape if you are chased for a long time.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhen became even more anxious.

"I, the king, will go with you!"

His station is on the border. Although he does not hold the post of general of the border army, he does have the responsibility of military governor.

Recently, the entire army had been prepared in advance to send troops at any time, so it assembled quickly, even bringing with it the 10,000 strong archers sent by Wei's border army.

The rest of the Xuanjia Army and all the cavalry set off first.

Move quickly, don't dare to neglect anything, and march with all your strength.

However, they didn't go far before they met up with Zhu Zhen and other large armies.

They stayed here.

It was seen that some war horses were so tired that they lay directly on the ground and could not stand up.

You can't run away for a long time while carrying a heavy load of black armor. This time, you are really tired...

Many soldiers also leaned slumped beside their horses. Perhaps they were all thinking about the same thing at this moment.

What kind of battle is this?

Seeing this scene, Zhu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.

At any rate, the system is intact, and being able to stay here means it is safe.

"His Royal Highness King Qi."

"His Royal Highness King Qi."

Everyone saluted and led Zhu Zhen to Zhu Zhen.

I saw him sitting on a stone, his face gloomy and ugly, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Zhu Zhen could understand his state of mind.

It could have been avoided if he had listened to himself.

However, Zhu Zhen did not ridicule, but comforted: "No one wants to see such a thing happen. The enemy is too cunning. We did not expect that the enemy's transferred Zhenbei Army could return so quickly.

…”

"What's going on now?"

He wanted to ask.

Zhu Zhen did not speak.

Fan Cang, the general of the town border army, said in a low voice beside him: "The enemy army stopped pursuing. They looted the military station where Lin Feng's troops were... and then returned..."

"What?"

Zhu Zhen's complexion changed slightly.

It was dark now, and he thought he didn't see clearly, but it turned out that he wasn't there at all.

That military station was considered an outpost, with at least 20,000 troops stationed there.

"The enemy's army of more than 100,000 troops is approaching quickly and fiercely. The surrounding military stations cannot provide assistance and it is difficult to deal with it, so..."

So it's not that I stopped escaping, but that the enemy stopped chasing me.

Yes!

After annihilating all the garrison at a military station, the enemy has already gained a big enough harvest. Why risk entering their base camp to pursue them?

This loss is big enough!

Zhu Zhen took a deep breath.

At this time Zhu Zhen stood up.

"All the cavalrymen will return with me and go to Lin Feng's military station."

He found another war horse and got on it without saying another word.

The previous Xuanjia Army did not follow, they were already exhausted...

Later, when a large number of troops set off, the sky was completely dark, the wind was biting, and it was extremely cold.

Taking advantage of the darkness, we rushed to the outpost station.

Of course, they were also very careful and kept sending out scouts to ensure that the enemy troops had indeed returned...

The distance was not too far, and we arrived at the military station after about an hour and a half.

As soon as we entered the range, we smelled a strong smell of blood.

The torches were all lit, revealing the cold corpses.

The expressions of fear and despair are still vivid.

The whole scene is tragic!

As Zhu Zhen walked among them, corpses were piled up so densely that it was difficult for him to move his legs.

These were all Daliang soldiers, and they died tragically.

"Go on a patrol and find those who are still alive."

Zhu Zhen gave the order.

But he felt that no one would survive.

With the current relationship between Daliang and Daning, there is absolutely no need to show mercy, not to mention that they were the first to invade...

Zhu Zhen was accompanying him.

His face was grave and silent.

Unexpected disaster!

This is a complete disaster!

These people didn't have to die, but it was because of Zhu Zhen's insistence that they caused such evil!

The casualties of 20,000 troops were not a small loss.

Daliang is currently recruiting soldiers nationwide, and it is quite difficult to replenish them. If one dies, one will be missing!

He wanted to vent, but he still held back.

Because it doesn't make any sense.

"Reporting to Your Highness, no one was found alive. All the troops stationed at the outpost should be dead..."

After a while, Fan Cang came over to report.

Zhu Zhen said nothing.

But he clenched his fists tightly.

He had already regretted it, but an impulsive temptation had resulted in such disastrous consequences.

And the loss was not only the garrison of this military station, but also many Xuanjia troops were shot and fell when they were chased by the enemy!

How to describe the mood at this moment?

There is no way to describe it!

"Pack up all the corpses, match the lives in the classics, distribute pensions, and search for corpses along the way to recover all our fallen soldiers!"

Zhu Zhen gave the order in a low voice.

These people died because of him, so he naturally had to show his attitude...

"Your Highness, the matter has happened, the key lies in the follow-up."

Zhu Zhen said: "So many soldiers who died must be reported. How can the morale of the army be stable?"

He said it euphemistically.

In fact, the implicit explanation is the issue of responsibility.

If there are serious casualties, someone needs to be held responsible.

This is also a practical problem Zhu Zhen faces.

His position as Prince of the East Palace was established with the support of Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty. It sounds relatively stable, but in fact there are still problems.

The ministers in the DPRK all believed that His Majesty was the Emperor Wu at that time, and he had experienced a great defeat. Since he was responsible for living with the people, how could he establish another military and military prince?
