In the face of the sudden rise in water, the army could not cross the river, which made the whole army a little panicked, Shi Dakai reluctantly announced that he would rest and recuperate for three days, and then kill the river in one fell swoop when the river tide receded.

Because of the long journey, Shi Dakaibu really needed to rest, and in the past three days, they also picked fruits in the mountains, hunted wild beasts and prepared some grain and grass.

But it was in these three days that the Qing army led by Luo Bingzhang also rushed to the opposite bank, and the river ebbed, but the Qing soldiers also came. Shi Dakai's luck was really bad.

Shi Dakai hardened his head and let dozens of rafts line up, with dozens of people on each raft, to storm the opposite bank.

The artillery of the Qing army was also lined up, and the wooden cannons loaded with iron pellets and stones did not need to be aimed, and they sprayed at the surface of the water, and the defenseless rafts were beaten to smithereens, and as long as people entered the water, they were swept far away by the current, and there was basically no possibility of survival, and thousands of Taiping soldiers died in the storm.

To make matters worse, the two toasts in this area saw Shi Dakai's predicament, they had already collected Shi Dakai's toll, and took Luo Bingzhang's benefit fee, changed their faces, and attacked Shi Dakai in turn.

Toast has no concept of right and wrong, and they believe in the principle that whoever gives more benefits will listen to whomever they want.

Luo Bingzhang gave a lot of silver, and agreed that as long as Shi Dakai was eliminated, Shi Dakai's money would all belong to them. Comparing these toasts, of course, it is cost-effective for Luo Bingzhang.

The local Tusiling Cheng'en captured the Ximagu stronghold on the east bank of the Chaluo River, and then crossed to the east of the river to capture the Taiping army's Xinchang stronghold, cutting off Shi Dakai's only retreat.

Another Tusi led his people to block the Songlin River to the west of Shi Dakai, and cooperated with the Qing army to encircle Shi Dakai. Here, Shi Dakai lost thousands of more brothers.

The Taiping army repeatedly lost and consumed, and the Qing army's encirclement network became tighter and tighter, Tusiling Chengen took advantage of Shi Dakai's hurry to cross the river, and successfully attacked Ma'anshan at night, and this time Shi Dakai's feeding ground was gone. At that time, there were still a lot of wild fruits and wild meat on the mountain, although there were no villages around, but relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, the Taiping army could still support it for a while, Ma'anshan was lost, and Shi Dakai felt that the rope around his neck had strangled himself.

Shi Dakai has been a hero all his life, but he was trapped alive in this small purple field, where heroes are useless, the space for activities is getting smaller and smaller, and the food supply is getting less and less.

In the face of such a crisis, Shi Dakai had to bow his noble head, he wrote a letter of credit and shot over, and begged Wang Yingyuan to beg Wang Yingyuan to get out of the way, and was willing to bid a thousand taels of silver to buy the road money, which was three times that of the past, and also made a wish that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom would lay down the country in the future and give him an official and a knight.

For the other Tusiling Chengen, he also wrote to ask them not to attack too quickly, and was willing to give money to let their subordinates show mercy, and not to chase after him all the time.

These two points of faith can be said that Shi Dakai completely let go of his face, and before he changed it, these two little toasts were not eye-catching at all. But at this moment, Shi Dakai no longer has the capital to negotiate.

The two Tusi are not stupid, they took your Shi Dakai's money and let you go, and the Qing court will not be able to get the money. If you eliminate you Shi Dakai here, not only will you have the reward of the Qing court, but your Shi Dakai's money will not be able to run away, and it will still belong to you.

Shi Dakai's plea not only did not make the toasts stop, but made them see that Shi Dakai could no longer support it, so they attacked even tighter.

In this extremely difficult month in Zidadi, Shi Dakai's men died to death, escaped, surrendered, and finally only more than 6,000 old brothers followed him without regrets. Many of these people have been following him to fight in the Quartet since Guangxi, and many of them are older than Shi Dakai, and they are absolutely loyal to the Wing King.

So an unbearable scene happened, because there was no extra food, and the Qing army was in front of them, and many people had realized that death was just around the corner. Shi Dakai's wife and two concubines took the initiative to commit suicide by throwing themselves into the Dadu River in order not to drag him down and avoid falling into the hands of the Qing army and being humiliated.

One by two, three by four, the wounded, and their families began to form groups of three or five, heading towards the Dadu River, and letting the river wash them into the unknown distance, Shi Dakai's Taiping army had reached its final moment.

====================

"Little prince, the destruction of the bandits is imminent, why do you take the risk to persuade them to surrender?" Luo Bingzhang stopped Yang Xiaoshan and didn't let him persuade him to surrender.

"Governor Luo, it is the bandits who have no way to escape, why not make the victory more complete? What's more, the trapped beasts are still fighting, and we have to pay a certain price if we want to destroy them. Yang Xiaoshan, who had just arrived here, was relieved to learn that Shi Dakai was still on the other side, but fortunately he came in time. So he proposed to persuade Shi Da to open the department.

"That's what I said, but the remaining thousands of bandits are all old thieves, and they would have surrendered a long time ago if they wanted to surrender, they were determined to oppose the imperial court, and they were afraid that they would not surrender." Luo Bingzhang shook his head, his rebellion work has not stopped, and those who have loosened their will have long been rebelled by themselves.

"How do you know if you don't give it a try? Governor Luo, is it my say or your say? Do you think that the first emperor has just left, and you can not obey the decree of the queen mother? Yang Xiaoshan was anxious, and pressed Luo Bingzhang after moving out.

Luo Bingzhang suddenly came down in a cold sweat when he heard this, and the lessons of the eight ministers of Gu Ming are still vivid, the queen mother of these two palaces is not easy to mess with, she is just a governor, and this Yang Xiaoshan in front of him is not stingy, saying that if you take people, you should take people, and it is better to hide yourself, so he bowed his head and said: "Xiaguan is worried about the safety of Lord Qincha, since the little prince has made up his mind, Xiaguan will prepare ships and guards to escort you to the other side." ”

So Yang Xiaoshan took a wooden boat with a white flag and was escorted by dozens of guards to Shi Dakai's camp.

"Wing King, don't listen to the demons, they want to deceive us, and they will kill us as soon as we lay down our weapons. Simply take down this Qing Demon official and fight with them. Hearing the guards next to Yang Xiaoshan shouting and persuading him to surrender, the subordinates of the Wing King shouted.

"Yes, yes, they dare to shake the morale of the army at the entrance of our camp, and they will definitely kill these damn demons!" The rest of the Taiping Army brothers are all bent on fighting, even if they die, they have to pull a cushion.

But at this moment, Shi Dakai pretended to be the lives of these old brothers under his hands, and the suicides of his wives and concubines made him grief, which made him have an idea, that is, he wanted to use his life to make a deal with the Qing army, so that his brothers could stay alive.

"The two armies are not fighting, let them in, and listen to what they have to say?" Shi Dakai asked his subordinates to put away their weapons, open the camp gate, and let Yang Xiaoshan and the others enter his camp.
