Chapter 494: Defeat after defeat
The guards of Xia Shu Town saw Hong Xuanjiao blocking them. He asked in a deep voice, "Xiao Wangniang, why can't you take the trail?" ”
Hong Xuanjiao said in a deep voice: "Our rescue of Xia Shu Town must be in Li Zhen's expectations. The situation ahead is likely to be a trap laid by Li Zhenbu. Come on, go and see the destruction of the bridge! ”
As soon as the words fell, a soldier went to investigate. After a short time, the soldier hurriedly ran back and reported: "Qi Xiao Wangniang, it is inferred from the destruction of the bridge that it should have been destroyed recently. ”
"Sure enough!"
Hong Xuanjiao smiled coldly and said, "Since it was destroyed recently, it must have been Li Zhen's doing." Li Zhen destroyed the bridge so that we could not pass through the bridge because he wanted us to pass through the trail. He ambushed his soldiers on the path of the trail, waited for us to go and then ambushed us halfway through. Li Zhen thought very well, and the official would definitely not let him get his way. ”
The guard of Xia Shu Town hugged his fists and said: "Xiao Wangniang is wise, and the last general is served." ”
The guard of Longtan Town also interjected: "The bridge is destroyed, and we can't pass on the bridge. Other than that, the only way is to wade across the river, is it really necessary to wade forward? ”
Hong Xuanjiao snorted and said coldly: "Is this difficulty stumped for you?" Li Zhen definitely never imagined that we would cross the river and hurry, as long as we crossed the river and hurried, we could rush back to Xiashu Town in a short time, and then gather all our forces to deal with Li Zhen. ”
The general of Xia Shu Town said, "Okay, I'll go first." ”
After finishing speaking, the guard of Xia Shu Town shouted: "Brothers, in order to rescue the county commander, rush with me." ”
"Rush!"
The soldiers roared loudly, and the sound of one after another echoed through the sky.
The guards of Xia Shu Town led the soldiers to run quickly towards the river and slowly descended the river. The river water was still a little cold, and the river water was only a lower abdomen at first, and gradually reached the chest, which made the soldiers crossing the river worry for a while. Fortunately, the deepest part of the river is the place where it reaches the chest, and as we continue to walk forward, the river begins to gradually become shallower again, and the four thousand guards of Xia Shu Town quickly go ashore.
On the other side of the river, there is a lush forest, in which a wide, straight official road is located, surrounded by trees.
After the soldiers went ashore, they quickly walked up the official road and rested in the shade of the trees.
Hong Xuanjiao followed closely and also began to cross the river with his soldiers. She soon waded across the river, and when she came ashore, she was already soaking wet, and her seductive delicate body was revealed. This situation was exposed, and many soldiers around were staring at it without blinking, swallowing saliva, and they couldn't help but look at Hong Xuanjiao's delicate body.
Seeing this, the guards of Xia Shu Town took off the clothes that were already wet, twisted them vigorously a few times, wrung out the water on the clothes, and then shook them vigorously to throw out the water stains. Waiting for the clothes to dry a little, the guard of Xia Shu Town handed the clothes to Hong Xuanjiao and said, "Xiao Wangniang put them on for the time being, and when I return to Xia Shu Town, let Xiao Wang Niang change her clothes." ”
Hong Xuanjiao glanced at the guard gratefully and wrapped her body in clothes. Seeing this, the guards of Dongyang Town and Longtan Town had a jealous expression on their faces. This opportunity was easy to gain Hong Xuanjiao's favor, but unfortunately both of them missed it.
Soon, more than 10,000 soldiers went ashore.
Hong Xuanjiao asked all the soldiers to rest for a while, and then asked the soldiers to tidy up their clothes and continue on their way. Approaching Xiashu Town, Hong Xuanjiao was extremely excited, because she would soon be able to rush to Xiashu Town. She hurried with the army, and after walking for about half an hour, there was a bang on the road ahead.
This explosion made everyone's nerves tense.
"Boom! Rumble!!! ”
Immediately afterward, another series of explosions rang out.
Immediately, the screams of the soldiers came from the front, heartbreaking, and Hong Xuanjiao was terrified.
"Report!"
A soldier rushed back and said urgently, "Oh no, there's something exploding on the road ahead." When we stepped on it, the earth and rocks immediately cracked and people were killed. ”
When Hong Xuanjiao heard this, she chuckled in her heart.
Could it be that you have been tricked?
Hong Xuanjiao had a bad premonition in his heart, and ordered loudly: "The army stops advancing, and the rest of the generals follow me to check the situation ahead." Hong Xuanjiao took the guards of Longtan Town, Dongyang Town, and Xiashu Town to move forward, quickly approaching the position of the vanguard army. Coming to the edge of the explosion zone on the ground, Hong Xuanjiao was stunned.
As far as the eye could see, the ground was full of potholes, and there were corpses that had been blown to pieces.
"Boom! Rumble!!!! ”
The sound of the explosion was still sporadically sounded, because after the soldiers running at the front stopped, the soldiers behind were still crowding forward, so that the soldiers at the front were unsteady and staggered up and stepped on the mine. More than 10,000 troops were in disarray, constantly retreating, all trying to avoid the mines ahead.
Hong Xuanjiao was anxious and shouted: "Quick, retreat to the river for the time being!" ”
Hong Xuanjiao knew that she had been ambushed, and retreated decisively.
"Hong Xuanjiao, it's already here, don't be in a hurry to leave!" Suddenly, a loud roar came from the woods in front of the right side of the official road. Hong Xuanjiao will never forget this voice, and when she dreamed, she clearly heard the voice that made her hate itchy, because the person who spoke was Li Zhen, and it was Hong Xuanjiao who hated it to the core.
"There is an ambush, retreat!"
Hong Xuanjiao suddenly became anxious and roared loudly.
Although Hong Xuanjiao wanted to take revenge, she had no chance at all, so she could only retreat quickly.
"Shoot, kill me!"
Li Zhen smiled coldly and ordered the soldiers to shoot.
In an instant, the soldiers hiding on both sides of the road opened fire. Bang gunshots rang out, and bullets flew indiscriminately, constantly shooting at the chaotic Taiping army. The sudden attack caused the collapse of more than 10,000 Taiping troops and a large-scale retreat. After Li Zhen saw it, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, tens of thousands of people want to cross the river and leave, but it is not a simple matter.
"Long boil, give the order to go down, and bombard it with a grenade when you get close!"
Li Zhen saw the Taiping army retreating, and gave another order.
Long Xi immediately went to convey the order, and after a while, the soldiers who were hiding in the woods rushed out and began to pursue the Taiping army. After approaching the Taipings, the soldiers threw grenades to bombard the fleeing Taipings. Grenades slashed through the air and landed in the crowd of the Taipings.
"Boom! Rumble!!! ”
The explosion pierced the eardrums, and the Taiping soldiers seemed to have exploded. All the soldiers scurried around like headless flies. There were soldiers who were so crowded with each other that they fell to the ground and were trampled to death, and there were also soldiers who were injured as a result of collisions with each other...... The battlefield was already chaotic and uncontrollable.
Hong Xuanjiao looked at the army under his command and wanted to cry without tears.
Last time, the 30,000-strong army she led was thrown into chaos by Li Zhen and finally defeated.
This time, she was still planted in Li Zhen's hands.
The guards of Xia Shu Town were so angry that they were bursting with anger, and said loudly: "Xiao Wangniang, Li Zhen's ambush soldiers are all here, and we won't have a problem taking the trail." Quick, let the soldiers cross the river, and then take the trail back to the town of Xiashu. The guards of Xia Shu Town were also shocked, but he tried his best to adjust his state and lead the troops to retreat.
