On the other side, after more than an hour of traveling through the road, Han Fei finally escaped from the tunnel successfully. Outside the tunnel was a small forest not far from Yecheng, where Han Fu had prepared a horse and some money.

Immediately, Han Fei took his things and rode a war horse. After taking a look at the familiar Yecheng from afar, he gritted his teeth, and then he followed the night cover and headed towards the Xiguan of Youzhou.

I don’t know if Yuan Shao didn’t care about the life of a mere Han Fei, or he didn’t remember that there was this person at all, and he was still busy consolidating the power of Yecheng just captured the power of Yecheng. He did not send people to search for the remaining people, so there was basically no danger along the way, and he slowly approached Yecheng.

The next day, 50 miles outside the Xiguan area of ​​Youzhou, Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu, at this moment, escaped to this place with more than a thousand remaining people. Originally, when they led their troops out of Han Rong's encirclement, there were still about two thousand soldiers, but they were helpless. After a long-distance raid of hundreds of miles, there were about seven or eight hundred people, either because they were too seriously injured or because they were physically exhausted, they could only sit and wait for death.

Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu couldn't care about so much at this time, or there was no way to care about so much. At this moment, Han Rong had more than 7,000 cavalry left behind, chasing behind them. If he really forced the brothers who could no longer run and ran away, there would probably be only one final outcome, that is, he would die together. In desperation, he could only endure the pain in his heart and continue to go to the Xiguan with his brothers who still had the rest of their strength. As long as he got there, Han Rong's few troops would be insufficient.

"Nee, ah!" Another neighing sound of horses, coupled with the screams of the Youzhou light cavalry, made Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun's hearts tight again. Without thinking, you know that another brother could not support him and died. Although this situation had happened several times during the long-distance escape, the two of them were still a little heartbroken.

Then the two looked at the place where the sound came from behind. Sure enough, a cavalry fell off the horse, and then tripped a cavalry behind him. In an instant, the lives of the two brothers were killed.

"Senior Brother, why don't we stop and rest, brothers can't support you anymore." Reason told Zhao Yun that he couldn't stop, but he still couldn't help speaking, with a three-point unbearable look on his face and a three-point exhaustion.

Zhao Yun is not an iron man. After a battle with Han Rong, he and Zhang Xiu helped the army to clear the way. In addition, the long-distance raids and escapes over the hundreds of miles now have been exhausted. Such a battle is not much better than the battle in Changbanpo in history. At this moment, he and Zhang Xiu can only survive until now with their firm belief and tenacious perseverance.

"No, Zilong, Han Rong's troops are less than five miles behind us. Now stop. If they are surrounded by Han Rong, all the brothers will die here." Zhang Xiu vetoed without hesitation. But the trace of grief flashed across his face could not be covered by any means.

"Hey!" Zhao Yun talked helplessly, not saying anything. He is not a person who is unreasonable, so he naturally knows which is more important.

"Brothers, hold on. Youzhou will be within fifty miles of still left. We will be safe at that time. Think about those dead brothers. Only by surviving can we have the chance to avenge them." Zhang Xiu shouted with self-blame.

Sure enough, after Zhang Xiu finished shouting, although everyone was injured and exhausted, their eyes were all blowing fire at this moment. They were not afraid of death, but they naturally didn't go back and chose to die if they had the chance to survive. And when they thought about the brothers who died at the hands of Yuan Shao's army, they all became excited.

The desire for life and the hatred for Yuan Shao's army are the motivation for them to persevere.

And about four or five miles behind Zhao Yun's remnants, more than 7,000 cavalry were racing towards this direction, so naturally Han Rong was chasing Zhao Yun.

At this moment, Han Rong was not inferior to Zhao Yun and the others in terms of anxiety. Logically speaking, Zhao Yun and his personal horses were already trapped. Han Rong's seven thousand soldiers were the new force, and in terms of speed, it was absolutely impossible to be inferior to Zhao Yun and the others.

But the facts now tell him that he was wrong, and he was very wrong. At the beginning, Han Rong was directly thrown out by Zhao Yun and others ten kilometers away. Fortunately, Zhao Yun and his men could not hold on now. The distance between the two sides was slowly getting closer, and from time to time, all the Youzhou light cavalrymen who were falling behind were killed directly by Han Rong and others, without any mercy.

However, this alone was enough for him to be confused. Han Rong was completely confused. He had no idea what was going on. The war horses under his cavalry such as Yuan Shao were all first-class war horses that Yuan Shao bought for a lot of money, which was definitely no worse than Zhao Yun and the others. Moreover, their cavalry were carefully trained for two years before they were formed. His riding skills were not bad at all. For a moment, Han Rong could not understand why this happened.

However, Han Rong is worthy of being a veteran, knowledgeable and meticulous. In the end, he discovered something strange among the dead Youzhou soldiers along the way.

He discovered the biggest difference between the Youzhou light cavalry and their own cavalry. That is, the Youzhou light cavalry has two rings on both sides of the saddle, which seems to be a place for the cavalry to step on. Moreover, there are actually these iron-like things on the horseshoes under their crotch, as if they were putting shoes on horses.

Although he didn't know what these things were for, his intuition told him that the Youzhou light cavalry could have such a fast speed that was definitely closely related to these inconspicuous little things.

He immediately left more than a hundred people and ordered them to collect these things and prepare to take them back to Yuan Shao. If it was really as he thought, then the combat power of his cavalry under Yuan Shao would definitely double. At that time, it would definitely be a great contribution and could atone for his son one more sin. This was something he was thinking about for the moment.

As for Liu Yao's stirrups and horseshoes, when he had already equipped these equipment into his army, he had already expected that the secrets of these things would have been leaked. After all, these things were not considered very exquisite things at all. To put it bluntly, just take a look and any blacksmith could create the same one.

However, he was not too worried at that time. First, he had other ways to deal with the cavalry. Second, he had the most cavalry under his command these days. Do you have to be afraid of others? It took him so long that the secret of the stirrup was leaked. Liu Yao was already burning incense.

But soon, Han Rong stopped thinking about these things. After all, these are the things that happened later. At this moment, Han Rong's only purpose was to catch up with the group of thieves in front. Not far ahead, it would be possible to enter Youzhou. If they really escaped, there would be no way. Han Rong didn't dare to break into Youzhou directly with such a few soldiers, which would undoubtedly be a mortal intent.

Fortunately, judging from the traces ahead, the thief's speed has been slowing down, but he still has some spare energy on his side. He has vaguely heard the sound of the horse hooves of Zhao Yun's army. Therefore, he must be able to stop them before entering Youzhou. At that time, with his current strength, it would not be easy to destroy the more than 1,000 remaining troops.
