While the battle in Xuchang was in full swing.
At the same time, on the way to Xuchang.
Bai Feng led the five thousand Ferocious Leopard Cavalry and rushed toward Xu Chang without stopping.
At this moment, time was of the essence. If they were late by even a second, Xuchang would be in danger of being overrun.
Bai Feng did not even send a single soldier to scout the way.
Soon, many of the soldiers' horses became tired and slowed down.
Even Bai Feng's horse was running out of stamina and could not keep up with its previous speed.
"Mr. Bai, let's go to the relay station first. Sharpening the axe will not delay the work of cutting firewood."
Cao Chun said breathlessly.
Even though Cao Chun had many years of battle experience, he was still a little tired from running all the way.
One day and one night! There was no rest at all!
However, Bai Feng seemed to be very energetic at this moment. He did not even loosen his grip on the reins, as if he did not feel tired at all.
"Okay, where's the nearest city?"
Bai Feng sighed helplessly and reined in his horse.
Cao Chun also reined in his horse and panted heavily.
"This should be Xiangyang. It's still some distance away from Xuchang."
Bai Feng frowned and turned to the soldiers.
"Don't stop. We'll go to the Xiangyang relay station to change horses first!"
With the order, everyone rushed toward Xiangyang City.
"Sir, fortunately, there are spare horses here. Should we take a rest?"
After arriving at the relay station, Cao Chun took a sip of water and asked Bai Feng.
At this moment, the soldiers were a little tired. None of them slept for the entire day and night. A tense atmosphere spread throughout the army.
"Rest? It's too late now! "
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes and said coldly to the soldiers who were almost asleep.
"At this moment, Xu Chang is probably already fighting to defend the city. If we had arrived a little later, you should know what would have happened to your families without me telling you."
"The Xiliang Army is attacking the city! A bunch of barbarians. Think about the situation when Dong Zhuo entered the capital! "
Most of the Ferocious Cavalry were from Xu Chang and had followed Cao Cao for many years. Most of their families were still in Xu Chang.
Using such words to motivate the soldiers was indeed effective. After a while, the sleepy soldiers quickly became alert.
"Yes! Xu Chang is our home. If Xu Chang is breached, what is the point of us living? "
"The Western Liang Army is a bunch of beasts! They even killed civilians! "
"That Liu Bei isn't a good person either!"
"…"
For a moment, morale rose again. Bai Feng mounted his horse and ordered:
"Follow me into the city. We must reach Xuchang today!"
With that, all the soldiers mounted their horses and followed Bai Feng out of Xiangyang City.
"General Cao … what's going on?"
The governor of Xiangyang asked Cao Chun in confusion.
Cao Chun shook his head.
"Do you have any troops here?"
The governor sighed.
"Only 5,000 soldiers guarding the city. Most of them don't know how to ride horses."
Hearing this, Cao Chun sighed and mounted his horse to follow the army out of the city.
At this time, infantry was the most useless.
If they waited for infantry to arrive, the Xiliang Army would already be standing on the city walls of Xuchang.
These 5,000 soldiers would slow down the entire Ferocious Cavalry.
"General, please be careful."
Although the governor didn't know what happened, he still bowed slightly to Cao Chun's back.
Da Qiao witnessed all of this from the side. She didn't know why, but her eyes were slightly wet.
At this time, Bai Feng, who was leading the army, was becoming more and more like Bo Fu …
Back in the days, Bo Fu fought heroically in Jiangdong. Why was he known as the Little Overlord?
It was because he was fast and ruthless!
How ruthless was Sun Ce back in the days? After conquering a city and recruiting the soldiers, he would turn around and head for another city!
There was once when Capital Wu was besieged. Sun Ce, who had just conquered a city, didn't say anything and rode his horse towards Capital Wu to provide support.
Da Qiao, who had followed Sun Ce for many years, saw it with her own eyes. At that time, Sun Ce's eyes were red and he didn't seem to be tired at all.
The current Bai Feng was like Bo Fu back in the days.
No, it was even more so!
Xuchang was so far away from Jingzhou, but he didn't seem tired at all!
Seeing the last group of Ferocious Cavalry leave the city gates, Da Qiao quickly stopped thinking and followed closely behind.
Finally, after two days and one night of running, the Ferocious Cavalry arrived at the city near Xuchang.
At this time, the Ferocious Cavalry had exhausted all their strength. The hooves of the horses were stained red.
"General Cao Chun, let's stop here."
When Bai Feng saw this, she sighed helplessly and gave the order.
"Understood!"
Cao Chun cupped his hands with red eyes and gave the order.
The soldiers felt relieved and fell into a deep sleep in the relay station.
At this time, Bai Feng vaguely heard the sound of a gong.
"It seems like Xuchang hasn't been conquered yet."
Hearing this sound, Bai Feng secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Cao Chun walked unsteadily to Bai Feng and said, "Sir, the soldiers have settled down.
"Sir, the soldiers have all settled down. Would you like to rest here?"
Bai Feng nodded and said,
"Given the current state of the soldiers, even if we go, we will not be able to exert our full strength. Instead, we will be used as targets by the Western Liang Army. Now that it is late, everyone should rest. We will head to Xuchang tomorrow morning.
Although he heard the sound of a gong, Bai Feng didn't dare to be too short-handed.
Because they were too far away, even though his hearing had exceeded the limits of a human, he could only hear a rough idea.
After receiving the order, Cao Chun ordered the guards beside him and then sat down beside Bai Feng.
"Sir, why don't you feel tired at all after such a high-intensity running?"
Cao Chun had been puzzled the whole way. He really couldn't understand.
Although he knew that Bai Feng's strength was amazing and could even suppress Dian Wei, even Dian Wei couldn't withstand two days and one night of continuous running.
If it weren't for Bai Feng's words to boost the morale, the Ferocious Cavalry wouldn't have been able to reach Xuchang in three days.
However, Bai Feng didn't even breathe heavily. Instead, he looked at the map.
He was a civil official!
Bai Feng shrugged and said nothing.
Cao Chun's eyelids kept fighting. He lay down on the ground and fell asleep.
If an ordinary person rode a horse for two days and one night without rest, he would probably die on the horse.
However, Bai Feng's physical strength couldn't be compared with an ordinary person's.
Because of the enhancement given by the System, Bai Feng could go three days without sleep. If he kept riding a horse, it would probably take him two days and two nights to feel tired.
Just as Cao Chun fell into a deep sleep, a figure appeared at the door.
Bai Feng waved his hand and said,
"Since you're here, why don't you come in?"
"I'm the governor of Fan City, Man Chong. My courtesy name is Boning. I'm sorry to disturb your rest. Please forgive me, Mr. Bai."
