Chapter three hundred and fortieth: victory or defeat

The wind and snow were storms, and light appeared in the sky. Lu Yifan, who was running in a panic, could finally see his troops clearly. He was so crying but no tears. In his vision, the soldiers who were abandoning their armor and abandoning their flags and sticks were running around the mountains. Some ran while screaming loudly, while others were running, they pierced into the withered haystacks, half of their butts were raised high, and more were running to the mountains on both sides. However, no one walked on the mountain for many days, and the snow was very deep. Once the road was turned off, the snow almost exceeded the knees, and it was still running there.

Seeing these soldiers being killed by the people chasing behind them, blood splattered on the spot, Lu Yifan was so depressed that he wanted to scream. Behind him, the excited soldiers of Shuntian Army screamed, and some even took off and walked forward, waving swords and guns barely, and running while wantonly slashing the rebels who had lost their fighting spirit.

"Dazhu, Dazhu, you damn, where are you?" Lu Yifan's only thought at this time was the Taiping general, Dazhu, who should appear to meet him.

Bypassing this mountain, my eyes suddenly became clear. A large area of ​​flat white land appeared in front of Lu Yifan. It was the frozen Pingdu River. But what made Lu Yifan even more ecstatic was that it was another scene that appeared in the white world. An army was as strict as an army, with swords and guns standing in front of him.

"Walk to both sides, walk to both sides!" At this time, Lu Yifan finally remembered his responsibilities as a leader. He stopped, waved the sword in his hand, and shouted desperately.

At this moment, you must not run towards the lineup that Dazhu has already arranged. If Dazhu is in trouble, Dazhu will ruthlessly shoot his soldiers who have finally survived.

The deserters were awake and felt that they were split into two and running towards the flanks, while some were dizzy but still fleeing forward like headless flies.

The rumbling drums suddenly rang out, and a thunderous shout rang out across the world.

"Let's go, go!" Thousands of people shouted in unison. The deserters who had been scared out of fear finally woke up by such a huge voice. They stopped and looked up. They saw their own military flags flying in the distance. The expressions on their faces were either crying or laughing. After hesitating for a while, they finally ran towards both sides.

The drums sounded again, and the loud shouts sounded again.

"Go forward, move forward!"

Under the command of the big pillar, more than 5,000 rebels began to slowly advance forward. The entire formation was in a triangular cone shape. The ones at the front were five hundred Qin Feng's personal soldiers. They were wearing black armor, holding big swords, and expressionless. Behind them, the five thousand Shuntian rebels formed a dozen triangular cone-shaped formations, following the vanguard in the front.

Bao Hua sternly strangled his war horses, looked at the neatly-shaped army appearing in front of him, and the slowly advancing queue was like a bolt from the blue, and it just fell on his head.

What shocked him even more was the team at the front, black armor, a unified sword, silent and expressionless as if it was a zombie. He had seen this team, which was the Taiping Army.

"Taiping Army!" He screamed in dismay.

Beside him, the soldiers of the Shuntian Army who were chasing him rushed forward like a tide, chasing him too hard and he couldn't stop it.

A long neighing sound of war horses sounded beside him. A horseman stood beside Bao Hua. With a thunderous sound, his two front hooves stepped heavily on the snow. Then Ma Zhe heard a little horrified voice: "Where did the army come from?"

"Taiping Army, Taiping Army!" Bao Hua heard the sound of his teeth knocking up and down. For him, the experience given to him by the other army was really terrifying.

"Taiping Army?" Ma Zhe cried out in dismay: "How come they are here?"

In the short conversation between the two generals of the Shuntian Army, the two sides had already collided heavily. The Shuntian Army, which had just become unstoppable and had a rainbow of morale, melting into the black lineup like snow in the sun. Big swords were raised and slashed, and blood and flesh were splattered.

"Let's go, go, retreat, hurry up, go back to Pingdu City. The rebels have long been colluding with the Taiping Army." Bao Hua shouted, turned his horse's head, turned around and left.

"Sing the gong, withdraw the troops!" Ma Zhe also shouted, and the two generals turned around and fled in almost no order.

In the middle of the night, the two armies were invading and defending, and the pursuers became fugitives, while the person who had previously fled for the death to escape was transformed into a deadly robber.

However, the state of the two sides was very different at this time. Previously, Lu Yifan's troops fled, at least in terms of physical strength, and were almost the same as the Shuntian Army that pursued him. Everyone fought first and then ran away. It was dark and neither side could run much faster, but now it was different. In the middle of the night, the physical strength of both sides almost reached the limit of their physical strength. At this time, another army that had been raising energy for a long time suddenly came out. For the other side, the blow was not only physical, but also psychological.

"Kill the enemy freely and pursue them freely!" Dazhu roared sharply. At this time, it seemed that there was no need to maintain a tight formation. The enemy's physical strength had reached its limit. The previous desire for victory supported their bodies. Now, it would be most appropriate to describe them as the end of a force.

The state shown by Lu Yifan's troops appeared in an instant on the soldiers of the Shuntian Army, but it was already bright at this moment, and it was not easy to stick out your butt and learn from the turtle.

Above the road, some rebel soldiers who had previously escaped and had hiding to the side had not yet come to their senses from the joy of escaping from death, they saw the Shuntian Army, which had previously pursued them like a wolf, and at this moment they ran back in panic and screamed, while behind, their own flags were fluttering in the wind.

They opened their mouths wide and were stunned for a while. They suddenly jumped up, picked up their weapons from their side, and shouted and ran out from the flanks, cutting into the escapees' team.

These people are not large in number, but they are enough to cause greater chaos to the Shuntian Army.

"The Taiping Army is here, the Taiping Army is here." Bao Hua, who was running away, trembling with his lips, kept reciting this sentence, feeling regretful. If he had known that the Taiping Army had joined forces with the rebels, he would not have fought even if he had killed him. But now, it was too late. Looking back at his back, the army with a formerly prosperous army had already been defeated at this moment. He could even see that the army in black armor was not far from him, and many of his own troops were even thrown away to the distance.

"It's over, it's over. If the army loses serious, can Pingdu City still defend it? If Pingdu City cannot defend it, the rebels can directly approach the Changyang County City. More importantly, if the rebels are allowed to come to Changyang County City, the supplies gathered in the county city will not be transported to the other two armies. If this is the case, will the Shuntian Army be far from failure?"

His heart was like a poisonous snake biting. At this moment, he suddenly remembered Jiang Tao's advice, don't go to fight, just stick to Pingdu City. Why don't you listen, why don't you listen?

"General Bao!" Ma Zhe's terrified voice suddenly came from beside him. "Pingdu City, Pingdu City!"

He looked up at Pingdu City that appeared in front of him. The city was still the same, but the flag flying above the city was no longer the Shuntian Army flag he was familiar with. Now the flag flying above the city was the Taiping Army's military flag. They had already unscrupulously fired their own military flags.

Above the city, a black-robed general was carrying a big knife, his legs stood above the battlements, looking down at them from a high place.

"It's gone, it's gone!" Ma Zhe said in a daze. Bao Hua was even more stunned. Everything was a trap, just to lure them out of the city. But now I understand what's the use? But this is not his fault. If he had known that the Taiping Army would have been hooked up with the rebels, he would never have gone to fight. It's all because of the unknown information from the superiors, which made him fall into such a big fall. If only Lu Yifan was the only one on the opposite side, then victory would definitely belong to him.

"Go back to the county town, go back to the county town!" He screamed wildly.

A group of horses, Bohua walked around the city, stepped onto the ice surface of the Pingdu River, and ran towards the opposite bank. Behind him, groups of defeated soldiers followed their generals, spreading their legs and running towards the Ultimate.

But Bao Hua chose the wrong land to cross the river. In panic, he forgot that in the past few days when he first arrived in Pingdu, his soldiers had been digging ice. With their efforts, the thickness of the ice on the Pingdu River was far inferior to other places. When thousands of people stepped on this ice surface and ran together, cracks gradually appeared on the ice surface. As the vibration intensified, the crack gradually expanded. With a snap, with a scream, a large area of ​​ice surface suddenly exploded. The soldiers on it fell into the ice like dumplings, and then disappeared without a trace.

The ice surface continued to explode, and the soldiers continued to disappear. The ice surface in front disappeared, revealing the rushing river water, but the soldiers behind were still running forward and pushing. The rows of soldiers who stopped at Shuntian Army were pushed directly down the river by huge pushing force.

Bao Hua finally rode his horse to the river bank on the other side. Looking back, the ice surface was disappearing one after another, and his soldiers were also disappearing in large areas. There were only more than a thousand people who could follow him to the ashore. Others were either swallowed by the ice river or stayed on the other side and were killed by the enemy.

Ma Zhe felt like he was lost, and his whole body was almost exhausted, and he was about to cry without tears. "I just said I couldn't leave the city, I couldn't leave the city. You insisted on leaving the city. Now it's over, everything is over."

Bao Hua turned his head suddenly and looked at Ma Zhe beside him. A trace of fierce light suddenly appeared in his eyes. The knife in his hand raised silently and inserted it into Ma Zhe's ribs with a loud bang.
