Chapter 652 - Hole Cards (B)

"Step! Trample!!! ”

Dense footsteps from far and near. Quickly approach the battlefield.

Li Zhen discovered this approaching army, and Xi Changzhen did the same. At this time, Xi Changzhen was holding a knife in his right hand and standing tall, surrounded by corpses, all of which he had killed. Xi Changzhen's body was stained with blood, all of which were the blood of Li Zhen's soldiers, not that he was injured. He looked in the direction of the retreat, his eyes wide open, as if his eyeballs were bulging.

In front of you, there is an army dressed as soldiers under Li Zhen.

This army is Li Zhen's people!

Worst!

Xi Changzhen yelled in his heart, feeling that something was wrong.

At the moment when the two sides are fighting, he and Rawell have joined forces to attack Li Zhen, not having an absolute advantage, but only having a slight upper hand, once this army joins in, his soldiers will be surrounded by the front and rear, and the situation will immediately change. After the delicate situation is broken, it must be his soldiers who will be hit hard.

Fall back? Or fight to the death!

When Xi Changzhen was thinking in his heart, the army on the official road in the rear had already rushed over.

"Kill!"

A loud roar sounded, and the person who shouted was Wu Youfu with a thousand people. On that day, Wu Youfu got Li Zhen's order and sneaked into Zhennanguan with a thousand soldiers. Because of the long distance and the bumpy road, I have only come now. Although the time is a little late, it is better to come early than to come by chance, and it is just right to join the battlefield now.

"Retreat, retreat immediately!"

Xi Changzhen is not an indecisive person, and he quickly made a decision.

The current situation clearly shows that the soldiers under his command are at a disadvantage. Even if it was a desperate battle, he must be the one who died, so Xi Changzhen did not choose to fight to the death. Xi Changzhen ordered the leader of the Black Dragon Guard to abandon the cavalry battalion opposite, turn around, and focus on dealing with the soldiers of Wu Youfu who came from behind, and break through.

The cavalry of the Black Dragon Guard were all elite soldiers, and after all the forces were concentrated on the breakthrough, they were like a sharp cone piercing out, quickly piercing into the army led by Wu Youfu, tearing apart the opponent's defense line.

Xi Changzhen followed closely and quickly retreated.

Seeing this, Rawell also showed a helpless expression, seeing that he was about to succeed, but he didn't expect to kill another team of soldiers, causing the situation to turn around. Rawell reluctantly ordered the soldiers to turn around and retreat, but his reaction speed was slower than Xi Changzhen's beat, and most of the soldiers under his command fell behind and became the target of Li Zhen's army.

"The foreigners can't hold on, kill them with me!"

Yang Banhou carried a big ash pole gun and pursued with a gun.

Immediately, Smith, Dong Haichuan, Yang Luchan and others also led soldiers in pursuit. The army covered up and beat the water dogs fiercely. Especially this time it was the French soldiers who encountered it, which aroused the fighting spirit of the soldiers under Li Zhen's command, they carried steel knives and roared, constantly rushing forward, one by one, killing the French soldiers with heavy casualties.

Li Zhen followed behind, but his eyes fell on Xi Changzhen. This guy is like a live loach and it's hard to catch. At this time, Xi Changzhen had already broken through the defense line of the soldiers under Wu Youfu with his soldiers and fled quickly.

This situation means that Li Zhen's action is a failure. Even if Li Zhen exterminated Xi Changzhen's soldiers and captured Zhennan Pass, he failed to capture Xi Changzhen, the commander, which was undoubtedly a failure.

Li Zhen felt sorry in his heart, but he had no choice but to order a fierce pursuit.

The worst of this desperate pursuit is undoubtedly Spicy Earl.

He looked at the dead and wounded soldiers under his command, and wanted to cry without tears, and thousands of soldiers were destroyed in one fell swoop.

After I go back, how should I explain it?

Rawell's mind was swirling about what had happened after he had returned, but he shuddered when he heard the shouts of murder coming from behind his buttocks, and the screams of the soldiers. After he quickly caught up with Xi Changzhen, he looked at Xi Changzhen's serious expression, and was jealous and resentful in his heart. This guy is cunning, ruthless and cruel, too hateful.

The two teams fled, and Li Zhen behind them was like a hungry wolf, entangled them to the death.

This pursuit lasted more than ten miles.

Along the way, there were countless corpses, and the soldiers of Xi Changzhen and Rawell suffered heavy casualties. Seeing that Li Zhen was thrown away, Xi Changzhen stopped to rest. He sat on the ground, hunched back, his hands gently pounding his aching thighs, gasping for air. Running all the way, if it weren't for Xi Changzhen's own physical strength, he would have been unable to support it a long time ago.

Rao is strong and strong, but he is almost unable to bear it.

As for Spicywell, it's even worse.

He fled all the way with a will not to die, and now after stopping, he lay directly on the ground, and it took a while to recover a little and do it.

Everywhere on the road, you can see soldiers lying on the ground, or sitting on the ground. All the soldiers were tossed and panted. After Chen Zhengshi recovered slightly, he walked to Xi Changzhen and sat down, and asked, "My lord, now that Zhennan Pass has been lost, the soldiers have also suffered heavy losses. What's more, there is no food, no weapons, what should I do? ”

Rawell interjected: "Retreat, retreat to Guilin Mansion!" ”

Guilin Prefecture is one of the 11 prefectures belonging to Guangxi Province. The Qing Dynasty implemented four levels of provinces, prefectures, prefectures, and counties, and Guilin Mansion was the capital of Guangxi Province and the place of Xi Yinglong's rebellion. Chen Zhengshi listened to Reel's words and said lightly: "Mr. Reear, the situation is not up to you, it is up to the adults to decide, please don't intervene at will." ”

"If you don't go back, I want to go back!"

Searle was full of anger in his belly, and directly said a sentence. The soldiers under his command had been slashed and killed by the Black Dragon Guard, and now when they met Chen Zhengshi's prickly speech, they immediately broke out, and they couldn't wait to leave immediately.

Xi Changzhen smiled coldly and said, "Rayer, if you want to leave, hurry up, so as not to drag down the general." ”

He has never had a good impression of foreigners, and firmly stands on Chen Zhengshi's side. After a pause, Xi Changzhen said again: "There are a lot of soldiers under my command, and they are all people who eat a lot, so it is difficult to solve the food problem. If you stay, you must be a group of burdens, and without a group of rice buckets under your command, it will be easier for the soldiers under my command to fill their stomachs. ”

"You, you ,......" Earl was so angry that his face turned red and his ears rose, and he finally couldn't stand it anymore. He stood up, immediately gathered all his soldiers, and left with his men.

The relationship between the two sides has become even more ossified.

Chen Zhengshi frowned and said, "Isn't it too much for us to deal with Earl like this?" Now that Zhennan Pass is lost, Li Zhen will drive straight into Guilin with a large army, and we will go straight to Guilin Mansion, and we will also go back, and it will be difficult to explain when the time comes! Thinking of his own adults making things difficult everywhere, and he was also an accomplice, Chen Zhengshi felt uneasy in his heart, and he was very afraid of facing Xi Yinglong.

Xi Changzhen said nonchalantly: "Xi Yinglong understands who I am, don't worry, it's okay." The two of them sat on the ground and rested for a full hour before continuing their journey back.

Li Zhen's army stopped, counted the soldiers, and counted the number of dead and wounded, Li Zhen's expression suddenly became very ugly. Judging from the data, although this time it was a victory, it was also a pyrrhic victory.

Even, it can't be called a victory.
