In fact, on the surface, there is nothing unusual on this road. Most of the horse-tabs are hidden under the dead branches and leaves, which undoubtedly brings great difficulty to the search of the Wei army.

But if it is not cleared, the Wei army will be completely impossible, and there is only one road in the valley, so it is impossible for the Wei army to go around.

The soldiers around him reminded Wang Hui that his butt was still bleeding, and that the horse-piercing nail was at least an inch deep. Wang Hui still grinned in pain, but he had no time to bandage the wound. He waved impatiently, and then ordered all the cavalrymen in the front team to dismount and search and pick up the horse-piercing nails.

In this situation, the cavalry will definitely not be able to pass. The war horses cannot recognize the horse-piercing nails. Once they step on, the horse-piercing nails will penetrate the horse's hooves deeply, and the war horses will be scrapped immediately. So the only way now is to let some of the cavalry dismount and search, pick up these horse-piercing nails and clean them up so that the cavalry can pass through.

It is estimated that there is no way to do this, but most of these horse-treated nails are buried under the dead branches and yellow leaves. The Wei soldiers must carefully search for each piece of land to find these horse-treated nails. The search process is often very time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the progress is very slow.

More importantly, no one knows how many horse-drawn nails the Shu army has placed on this road, so this requires Wei soldiers to patiently search on this road until all the horse-drawn nails on the road are cleared and safe, so that the cavalry's large teams can pass through.

It is this unknown and uncertainty that makes the cleanup operation of the Shu army far away. Just as the Wei army struggled to remove these horse-drawn nails, the Wu and Shu army were already moving away and gradually drifting away.

This was indeed a heavy blow to Wang Hui, who was determined to catch up with the Wu Shu army. He had missed the opportunity to encircle and annihilate the Wu army before, and now he watched the Wu Shu army slip away from his nose, which undoubtedly made Wang Hui quite crazy.

Although Wang Hui is the son of Wang Ji, his position as the general of the cavalry now has nothing to do with his father. He has also been promoted step by step with his military merits, but in the eyes of others, he may not think so. It is precisely because of Wang Ji's equal weight that Wang Hui was able to become one of the generals of the three main cavalry battalions of the Wei army.

Therefore, after Wang Hui became the general of the Tunqi, he first wanted to prove himself. If he wanted to prove that he was worthy of the position of this general, he had to speak with his military merits. Therefore, this time he led the Tunqi camp to pursue the Wu army, and Wang Hui showed great efforts.

The combat effectiveness of the Tunqi Camp is obvious to all. Even among the various combat sequences of the Wei army, if it is simply ranked by combat effectiveness, the Tunqi Camp is almost undisputed first. With this iron-blooded spirit cavalry, it is difficult for Wang Hui to not have any merits. So this time, the Tunqi Camp went to pursue the Wu army. Wang Hui was full of confidence. He vowed to make a name for himself and let everyone in the world know that he is not a second-generation official who can be promoted all the way with his father's guise.

It’s a pity that things didn’t go as expected. Although the Tunqian Camp led by Wang Hui has high-end combat power, its speed is unsatisfactory. Not only can it be compared with the Knight Camp, which is known for its speed, but even the ordinary cavalry, Rujin Cavalry Camp, is not as good as the Knight Camp.

The shortcomings in speed make it difficult for the Tunqi Camp to pursue the Wu army. If it were changed to the Xiaoqi Camp, the Wu army would have almost never run so far. Perhaps before they even arrived in Baqiu, they would be caught up with the Xiaoqi Camp.

But for the Tunqi Camp, it was already doing its best. After crossing hundreds of miles, it chased after seven or eight days for seven or eight days before barely catching up with Wu Jun in Yanziji.

Unfortunately, the end of the journey was still in vain. The sudden appearance of the Shu army became the biggest disruptor of this battle. They used the horse-drawn to block the pursuit of the Tunqi Camp. Seeing the news of the Wu Shu army in the valley, Wang Hui felt very uncomfortable.

Compared to the pain on his butt, the pain in Wang Hui's heart made him truly heart-wrenching.

A veteran suggested that if you want to crack the horse-piercing nail, there is a good way, that is, let Wei soldiers tie wooden boards under their feet, and many people walk side by side, so that once they step on the horse-piercing nail, the horse-piercing nail will be stuck on the wooden board. This cleaning method does not require Wei soldiers to bend over and search, which can greatly increase the speed of cleaning.

Sima Yi used this method to crack the horse nails back then, but although the wooden board was prepared in advance, otherwise, when the wooden board was found, the enemy would have fled.

There is no doubt that Wang Hui's pursuit ultimately failed. After all, he could not find a large number of combined wooden boards in a very short time. When he found the wooden boards and cleared the horse nails on the road, the Wu and Shu army had long disappeared and disappeared among the mountains and ridges of Jingxi.

Of course, Wang Hui was not missing anything. He packed up the thousands of horse nails he had picked up and went back to see Shi Bao with a frustrated look on his face.

Shi Bao had never seen Zhamadeng. After all, the last time he fought with the Shu army in Longxi, the Shu army did not use this weapon. After hearing Wang Hui's statement, did Shi Bao get angry? After all, the sudden arrival of the Shu army was outside his plan, and it was not surprising that there was an accident.

Moreover, the Shu army used a special weapon - Zhama Ting. This weapon with low damage but excellent blocking effect has a great impact on the Tunqi Camp. It is reasonable that Wang Hui was unable to complete the task and catch up with the Wu army, and it is not entirely Wang Hui's fault.

Seeing that half of Wang Hui's legs were stained with blood, Shi Bao immediately summoned the doctor among the army to heal Wang Hui's injuries.

As for the next step of action, Shi Bao did not have a good strategy for the time being, so he decided to wait for a day or two, after the Tunqi Camp and the Right Guard Camp, he led the army to take the police first, and reported the situation of Jingxi to Cao Liang to know about it.

In terms of major strategy, Shi Bao still has to obey Cao Liang's arrangements. After all, after the Wu and Shu armies united, this will form a new challenge for the Wei army to fight Jingxi. The next specific actions of the Wei army will still require His Majesty to decide.

Of course, when submitting the memorial, Shi Bao did not forget to ask the messenger to bring a few horse-tabs. In the future, the cavalry camp would have to fight in Jingxi. The horse-tabs would undoubtedly encounter it. Only by truly cracking this thing can the cavalry's advantage be exerted, so Shi Bao handed the horse-tabs to Cao Liang. He believed that with His Majesty's intelligence, these horse-tabs would definitely not be difficult for him.
