As the days passed, the good news came out frequently, with the help of Wu Jincao's contact with the Yuan Dynasty's Ruijin Banner sect, the intelligence personnel of Xihe City in the Yuan Dynasty had made preliminary contact with them, although they had not yet been able to gain their trust, but it was believed that after Wu Jincao arrived, Zhang Yuan would control all of this organization of 20,000 people.

After hearing the news, Zhang Yuan completely relieved his heart, and couldn't help but secretly think: "Although Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min love you to the death, by the way, there is also a third party, Zhou Zhiruo, let me be a trick for a while, but now it's worth it, I basically pick up what they don't want to make a fortune, there are five congenital masters alone, and there is an intelligence network, and so on to completely control the intelligence network of Ruijin Banner, it is slowly optimized, and when the Yuan Dynasty does not dare to come and go freely, but what business does it want to do, Steal something, there is a little movement, I'm afraid it can't hide from my ears and eyes! ”

At the same time, Xi Juan's team is getting closer and closer, with a big victory, although they burned their own grain and grass, but they completely defeated the Yuan army, all the way to the river of blood, corpses all over the field, accompanied by countless trophies and countless cattle, horses and livestock, there is no need to worry about their own lack of food and grass.

On the contrary, the Yuan army fled a lot because of the death of Jebe, but in the vast grassland, it is easy to raise three or five thousand people without food, after all, there are many wild animals, and there are some small tribes, but the problem is that they fled not only three or five thousand people, many people gathered together, there is no food and grass, there is not enough to eat, they have to disperse, and even want to steal some cattle and horses from the Han army.

The result can be imagined, Xi Juan is preparing a trap waiting for them, he has already lost his morale, and the killed gutless remnants are not much different from a sheep in front of the Han army, even if they are in the elite, what is the use of having no courage?

A massacre killing, the remnants of the Yuan army suffered countless casualties, almost fled immediately, and finally fled back to the Yuan Dynasty only 40,000, of which thousands were lost in the grassland, and when these more than 40,000 people returned to Hanzhou, most of them were almost starved and only had skin and bones, and they heard that the Han army had changed color, and had to be transferred back to the dynasty to rest.

It is conceivable that in the future, they will not dare to go against the Han Dynasty.

Xi Juan did not stay in the grassland because of them, after cleaning up, and rested for ten days, Xi Juan ordered the generals to lead the Han army, set off a bloody storm in the grassland, while the Yuan Dynasty was not organized, she traveled all the way west, where she passed, the tribe was either exterminated, or had to drag the family with the mouth, dare not live in the Yuan and Han dynasties route.

Fought until the gate of Hanzhou, Xi Juan and the Yuan army stationed in Hanzhou fought dozens of battles, Zuihou divided the troops into several ways, almost the entire Hanzhou was blown up, and then Shi Shiran withdrew, because the soldiers had already been physically and mentally exhausted after more than a month of fierce battles, and the Yuan Dynasty was also beginning to mobilize troops to prevent her from going deeper.

The good news on the front line came out frequently, and Xu Rong was also in the army like a fish in water, because he killed Jebe and used Jebe to delay the escape of the opponent's army.

After Xi Juan knew about this matter, he rewarded Xu Rong, but Xu Rong refused, because he belonged to Zhang Yuan's disciples, so the credit was credited to Zhang Yuan's head, and then in the Yuan Dynasty, Xu Rong also showed his handsome ability, and concentrated the key points of the Yuan army several times, so that the counterattack organized by the Yuan army on the Hanzhou side was successful, and made great contributions to the defeat of Hanzhou.

If it weren't for Xu Rong's fear of causing trouble to Zhang Yuan, he didn't dare to be too prominent, and he was much more low-key and restrained, otherwise the achievement would be more than that.

Even so, Xiao He also wanted to win over Xu Rong several times, but Zuihou was politely retreated by Xu Rong, expressing his loyalty to Zhang Yuan, but this time he was deeply appreciated by Xiao He and praised his loyalty!

It was this praise that made Xu Rong realize the crisis, and he never dared to show it again, and even pretended to be a small defeat several times.

The outside world was disturbed, and good things were frequent, and Zhang Yuan's heart was also put down.

On this day, when Zhang Yuan was practicing his martial arts, the guards hurriedly ran over and said, "General, Song Yi and they ask to see!" ”

"Song Yi, they're back?" Zhang Yuan stopped all of a sudden, and said secretly with surprise: "This time is really a great joy!" It seems that this time is really my harvest day! ”

"Lead the way!"

As Zhang Yuan walked, he summoned the servants who passed by and asked them to call Qian Tian, Jia Xu, Qian Lao and other core high-level officials, not that Zhang Yuan did not trust others, but that this matter could be told to others, so as to boost morale and stabilize people's hearts.

But this matter is related to the future of Xihe, before the dust settles, the less people know, the better, which is why Weishenme Zhang Yuan chose Song Yi to lead the team and did not place a player to contact, the interests involved are too great, so big that Zhang Yuan has a feeling of 'children holding gold and traveling in the city'.

Now that more than a month has passed, Song Yi and the others have finally returned, Zhang Yuan suppressed the joy in his heart, and his steps couldn't help but be a little faster.

Looking at Song Yi, who was dusty and had a yellow face, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but blurt out: "It's hard work!" ”

Song Yi was no longer a second-rate son at that time, after following Qian Tian to study, and personally took over Qian Lao's position to take charge of Xihe City, now he has a calm personality, jumping away, as if he was a different person, but after hearing Zhang Yuan's words, he couldn't help but have red eyes, and along the way, they encountered countless difficulties.

They have encountered common wolves on the grassland, full of dangers, and have also been pursued by the tribe, and almost met Zhao Min to collect the team of the grassland tribe, so they had to take a long detour, and when they arrived at the forest that Zhang Yuan said, they encountered more and more poisonous insects, swamps, and fierce beasts in the forest, all the way down, the original team of 100 people, finally passed through the grassland, and only less than half of them broke through the forest.

In the end, it took them seven days to break through the densely wooded, dark forest, and enter the Grand Canyon that Zhang Yuan said, often the Grand Canyon is full of vines, and it is also the place where poisons live, where half of the people are less than 20 people pass, and after the Grand Canyon they see the endless grassland that Zhang Yuan said, and the sea under the grassland.

"Ding, congratulations to the player for gaining Song Yi's loyalty, +8 favorability!"

Song Yi knelt down and said, "Fortunately, I don't live up to the humiliation!" We saw the steppe that the general spoke of, and we also saw the sea! ”

"Okay, just see it!" Zhang Yuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Get up!" ”

"Whoa!" Song Yi responded.

Zhang Yuandao: "Let's talk slowly, drink tea and refresh yourself, I'm afraid there will be no rest along the way, right?!" ”

Song Yi took a sip of tea, moistened his dry mouth and throat, and said solemnly: "It's okay when you come back!" ”
