As they traveled westward, the Wu army had already raised the speed of the march to the extreme. They slept in the open air, slept at night, and spent the night in the morning. They hoped that they could be faster and faster and rushed to the police as soon as possible. Only by escaping to the police city and relying on the defense of the city walls could they gain a sense of security. On this endless plain, in addition to panic, they were still panic.

But humans are not machines after all. Many marches day and night made the Wu army exhausted. Many soldiers' legs were as if they were filled with lead, their steps became significantly slower, and their marching speed was greatly slowed down.

Seeing this scene, Lu Kang was worried, but he was helpless. After all, no one could bear such a high-intensity marching, but Lu Kang didn't dare to stop, because the news came from behind showed that the Wei army was really close to them.

Only a suitable geographical location, such as passes, rivers, ferries, and Lu Kang will send people from behind to block the attack, trying every means to delay the pursuit of the Wei army. Although the results are minimal, it is only the greatest force that the Wu army can use. Otherwise, the Wu army will not have the chance to escape further.

However, this behavior of blocking the chariot by the mantis arm was only slightly delayed by the Wei army's pursuit. After all, the number of people sent by Lu Kangneng was limited, and he only used the advantages of the terrain to block. Once the Wei army broke through the defense line, the pitiful few people would be immediately submerged in the crowd, and the entire army was destroyed and no one could escape.

In fact, after Lu Kang left Baqiu, he felt extremely distressed. It was he who stubbornly chose the road to go west. It was indeed extremely difficult to walk. He now deeply felt a sense of suspicion. Could it be that his choice was wrong?

Shi Ji's words were still heard, and they would sound in Lu Kang's heart from time to time. At that time, there was a big difference between them. Shi Ji believed that moving west was a dead end, and only going south to Jiaozhou was the way out. However, Lu Kang believed that going south to Jiaozhou was escapist. Once Jingzhou lost, there would be no chance to recover. Jiaozhou was located in a wilderness and had poor population and resources. Even if they could survive, they wanted to make a comeback and restore the Wu Kingdom, it would be an unattainable dream.

For Lu Kang, restoring the country was his greatest obsession. All his plans and strategies were based on this goal. If he fled to Jiaozhou according to Shi Ji's plan, wouldn't Lu Kang's goal of restoring the country be ruined?

So Lu Kang sternly rejected Shi Ji's suggestion and stubbornly headed west, even though he didn't have the chance to reach Jiangling, he still did not change his route.

In fact, Lu Kang's biggest reliance was the assistance of the Shu army. Relying on the Wu army's own strength alone, it was really impossible to compete with the Wei army, but if the Shu army was added, the situation would be very different.

Before, when Lu Kang sent Wu Jun to Yong'an, he had reached a consensus with the Shu General Jiang Wei. Although Jiang Wei still needed to report to the Shu Lord Liu Chan, since Jiang Wei had already agreed happily, the matter of the Shu army sending troops was basically a foregone conclusion.

Although Jiang Wei had promised to send troops, he had not determined the time to send troops. The situation in Jingzhou was developing thousands of miles a day, which made Lu Kang secretly anxious. Before the Wu army withdrew from Wuchang, Lu Kang had already sent Wu Jun to Yong'an again to discuss the specific time of sending troops with Jiang Wei, and to urge Jiang Wei to send troops as soon as possible.

After Lu resisted the surrender of Shu, Jingzhou's territory naturally belonged to Shu. Now that the Wei army attacked, every city he captured was considered the territory of Shu. If Jiang Wei knew that Wuchang had been lost, he would probably feel distressed for a while.

Lu Kang believed that Jiang Wei would not watch Jingzhou fall into the hands of the Wei army in vain, but this trip to Yong'an is thousands of miles apart, and there are mountains and canyons along the way, and the road is difficult to move, and the news is blocked. Jiang Wei has not yet received any news from Jingzhou, so Lu Kang sent Wu Yan to Yong'an again. Chen said that it is amazing. As long as Jiang Wei knew the situation facing Jingzhou at this time, he would definitely send troops to help without hesitation.

Although there are many tricks in Lu Kang's surrender to Shu, Jiang Wei is not a fool, and he will not understand Lu Kang's real plan, but when Jingzhou, a piece of meat that has made Shu people covet for decades, was fake. No matter what kind of controversy there will be in the future, they are facing their common enemy, Cao Liang, and naturally they need to work together to the outside world.

As for future events, that is a story later. There are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends in this world, but only eternal interests.

So at least before expelling the Wei people, Jiang Wei and Lu Kang had the same interests, which invisibly tied them together and advanced and retreated together.

But unfortunately, Jiang Wei's army is still in the far away Yong'an, and the pursuers of Wei State are behind him. It is difficult to quench their near thirst from afar.

Moreover, according to the report of the horse explorer, the Wei army's pursuers were approaching and could catch up in one day or a half at most. At this time, the Wu army was at least two or three days away from the police.

If the Wu army had the opportunity to escape to the public security, then relying on the city, it could temporarily withstand the attack of the Wei army. As long as Jiang Wei's reinforcements arrived, the Wu army could naturally be defeated.

At this time, Lu Kang wanted to have two wings and fly out of this hundred miles at once. But now the marching speed of the Wu army is at a limit. It can be seen that the entire army is already exhausted. They have used almost all their strength to walk the road. Now they are just relying on the last trace of belief. It is almost impossible to increase the marching speed and get rid of the Wei army's pursuit.

At night, the Wu army's team arrived at a place called Yanzizui. It was almost the second update. Lu Kang saw that the Wu army could not walk anymore, so he ordered the entire army to rest.

After walking for a day with his legs filled with lead, few Wu Bing could hold on any longer. After hearing the order to rest, many people fell to the ground. In just a few breaths, they were already snoring loudly.
