    The Daling Province, Wuyuan Province, Pingyang Province, and the northeast of Daning Province occupied by wolf cavalry are in danger.

    The small units of the Far Eastern Army active in the countryside, roads, and villages were extremely fierce. They attacked the wolf cavalry patrols, transport teams, sentries, and messengers.

    These small groups of troops were covered by the people and provided intelligence. They appeared and disappeared, making it impossible for the wolf cavalry guarding everywhere to guard against them.

    Facing the day and night attacks of these small units of the Far Eastern Army, while the Wolf Cavalry suffered heavy casualties, the situation also took a turn for the worse.

    The commanders of the wolf cavalry who were stationed in the big cities at the beginning were also able to contact the defenders in the surrounding towns and let them clean up the small units of the Far Eastern Army.

    However, with the passage of time, the connection between the big city and the defenders in the surrounding towns was cut off, and the towns occupied by the wolf cavalry became isolated islands.

    The liaison officers and messengers sent by the wolf cavalry disappeared without a trace.

    On the contrary, more and more Far Eastern Army troops appeared around their towns, yelling at them and shooting cold arrows.

    The defenders of the wolf cavalry everywhere also stepped up their guard as if they were facing an enemy, but the situation did not improve.

    The big cities organized troops to try to get in touch with the surrounding towns, but as soon as their soldiers and horses left the city, the Far East Army knew their movements.

    Several wolf cavalry who left the city were ambushed. Except for a few lucky ones who fled back to the city, most of them were annihilated by the Far East Army in the wild.

    The wolf cavalry were terrified and huddled in the town and did not dare to go out, but the town could not provide them with enough safety.

    Those people who were obedient to them were also full of hatred for these invaders who ate, drank and took what they wanted.

    Many wolf cavalry who were left alone on the streets of the town may encounter black sticks, or simply disappear, and be found in a stinking ditch the next day.

    Facing the unpredictable attack, the wolf cavalrymen's nerves were extremely tense, and they didn't even dare to walk out of the camp easily.

    With the shrinking of the wolf cavalry, the range of activities of the small units of the Far Eastern Army left behind has been greatly expanded.

    Under the order of Xu Yong, the deputy commander of the Third Field Army, small groups of troops scattered everywhere began to concentrate in a planned way except for the harassing troops.

    Small groups of troops gathered together, and they began to attack the wolf cavalry defenders who had been cut off and isolated everywhere.

    When seeing hundreds of soldiers of the Far Eastern Army appearing around their camp, the wolf cavalry really felt the fear.

    Over the past period of time, they have encountered small groups of attacks. The Far Eastern Army that attacked them is elusive and never confronts them head-on.

    So as long as they gather together, they will be safe staying in camps and towns, at least the attackers dare not beat them openly.

    But now the Far Eastern Army started to besiege them openly and aboveboard. While they were astonished, they also took the initiative to set up a formation to fight.

    The wolf cavalry stationed in various towns ranged from a few dozen to as many as a thousand, and they were all brave and skilled soldiers.

    They were terribly annoyed by the harassment, but they couldn't find each other. Now that the other party appeared, they felt more at ease.

    In their view, these Far East Army soldiers outnumber them, but they are not afraid. You must know that they are cavalry and have strong combat effectiveness.

    These wolf cavalry even thought that these were stragglers after the retreat of the main force of the Far Eastern Army. It was okay to engage in harassment, but they were definitely not their opponents in a frontal battle.

    However, when the two sides fought each other, they realized that they were wrong, and they were wrong too much.

    The equipment of these troops composed of the regular army of the Far East Army and the civilian army is not bad, and many of them are even equipped with hundreds of crossbows.

    Moreover, they were all commanded by regular army officers with rich combat experience. They blocked the wolf cavalry with tripping ropes and horse traps, then shot from a long distance, and then rushed to close combat. Everything was in order.

    Even some troops pretended to retreat, leading the wolf cavalry who underestimated the enemy into an ambush, and then wiped them out.

    The wolf cavalry's underestimation of the enemy made them pay the price. Many wolf cavalry who attacked suffered heavy losses, and even a considerable part were wiped out.

    In the large occupied area in the north, small-scale battles continued to break out, and the active forces of the wolf cavalry scattered everywhere were continuously consumed.

    Soldiers of the Far Eastern Army who were active in the occupied areas regained the mainland in just three days.??More than 20 towns, and the number of recovery is still continuing.

    Marshal Arslen led the remnants all the way to the capital of Pingyang Province, where he still had 3,000 cavalry stationed.

    But before he could catch his breath, the cavalry unit of the Far Eastern Army almost drove his ass to the provincial capital of Pingyang.

    Arslen originally wanted to rely on the provincial capital of Pingyang to resist the pursuit of the Far East Army and buy time for him to gather troops to counterattack.

    But at night, the city gate of the provincial capital of Pingyang was blasted open with a bang, so frightened that Arslen had to flee north again with his troops.

    Dangerous everywhere, the harassment of small groups of the Far Eastern Army at night, and the shooting of cold arrows during the day, made the wolf cavalry like frightened birds, not daring to stay.

    While fleeing northward all the way, Alslen sent messengers to various towns to gather the scattered wolf cavalry.

    There are more than 100,000 wolf cavalry scattered in Wuyuan Province, Daling Province, Pingyang Province and other places. As long as this force is assembled, he is enough to turn against the wind, at least he will not be chased and beaten like he is now.

    But until Arslen arrived at the border area near Daling Province, except for the wolf cavalry from several big cities along the way who joined his team, none of the wolf cavalry stationed in other towns came to join him.

    The wolf cavalry stationed in those towns have either been wiped out, or although they are huddled in the city, they have actually lost contact with the outside world and have not received Arslen's assembly order at all.

    Seeing that there is no news from most of the towns, there are more and more Far East Army troops around them, and attacks on them are becoming more and more frequent.

    Arslen thought that the main force of the Far Eastern Army had already arrived near him, and he didn't care about gathering the scattered wolf cavalry troops, so he could only continue to flee north with the remnants.

    Behind Arslen, in addition to about 20,000 Far Eastern Guards cavalry and security cavalry pursuers, several field infantry flag regiments also followed.

    The reason why these field infantry flag regiments were able to follow up so quickly was because they were traveling in a carriage.

    The Far East Empire vigorously developed commerce, and there were as many as 20 car dealers in the imperial capital, with thousands of horse-drawn carriages carrying people and goods.

    Now all the carriages in the surrounding cities of the imperial capital have been gathered to provide assistance for the pursuit of the Far East Army.

    These people-carrying carriages were produced by the Imperial Arsenal. After special modifications, each one can hold more than ten people.

    Although the carriages pulling goods were uncomfortable, the soldiers in the Far East now wanted to chase the enemies fleeing north, so they didn't care so much.

    In addition, the Far East Empire used work as relief at the beginning, and built a wide road from the imperial capital to the northern border of the empire.

    At the beginning, this road was built to strengthen the empire's rule over the north and facilitate the transportation of grain.

    Now the carriages full of soldiers headed north along this road, chasing behind the wolf cavalry, and regained towns and cities.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
