Chapter 243: The Loser

As the sky cleared, the storm was left behind by the galloping horses, leaving three or four hundred men and horses drowned in the blizzard. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Yin looked back with palpitations, only to see seven or eight panicked honor guard horses escaping from a distance, and after looking for a long time, no other soldiers were able to break through.

At this time, Li Yin felt that the ink-colored clouds floating in the sky in the distance were like a bloody mouth, silently devouring his comrades and brothers who had been with him day and night, and then thought that the order to stop and repair was given by himself, and he couldn't help but feel sad and sighed.

"Let's go ten miles further, stop and get in the right direction." Shi Lixun led the way alone, his bright armor was covered with the blood of the enemy, and his face was expressionless, not knowing whether he was sad or angry.

"Yes......" The rest of the entourage plus Li Yin was no more than ten, and there were three other startled horses running behind the team, and the saddle was empty, but those people did not survive the charge......

After this sudden attack, everyone's morale fell to a low point, and there was only the sound of horses and hooves along the way, and everyone was silent.

Many of them, still in the midst of the massacre, have even watched their best friends be eaten by themselves, and now they have fallen silent and wept silently on their horses.

As a result, the morale of the people who had already fallen to the bottom became even worse, except for Shi Lixun, who was the leader in front, the rest of the people, including Li Yin, were infected by the atmosphere, and they couldn't help but sigh and cry bitterly.

"Let's stop, everybody." Seeing that the distance he ran was almost over, Shi Lixun reined his horse's head slightly and slowed down the team's speed.

"Yes......" The rest of the people replied casually, slowly reining in their bridles, but now that the scattered and sad atmosphere has been revealed, what Shi Lixun wants to tell them to do at this time, I'm afraid no one will listen.

Shi Lixun knew what the soldiers thought in their hearts, so he didn't blame as usual, but turned over and dismounted, took out a map made of parchment from his arms, and carefully compared the surrounding landforms and began to locate them.

"We haven't deviated from the avenue yet, and if we cross the ridge forward, we can continue to walk on the official road to Fengxiang and Chang'an." Shi Lixun said a few words, like a strong needle, to the soldiers present more or less more confident, "This is my view that it is now dark, I'm afraid we can't get to the official road before dark, not to mention how light, it is completely impossible for us to march at night now." ”

Shi Lixun's practical analysis made the rest of the people see their current situation more or less clearly, and Shi Lixun also deliberately emphasized the next possibility, but he hoped that the rest of the people could follow the instructions, after all, they are still trapped in the bitter cold Loess Plateau, if everyone does not huddle together to keep warm, death will come at any time.

"General! So what do we do? Li Yin took the lead in expressing his willingness to follow.

"There is a village a few miles ahead of this trip, and everyone will change lanes with me, and if nothing else, we will be able to spend the night there, and we will be on the road again tomorrow when the people are sufficient." Shi Lixun pointed out the location of the village to everyone, and looked up at the soldiers waiting for their statement.

"No! No way! You lied to me! After being silent for a long time, a young soldier shouted to Shi Lixun in hysteria, "I can't stand it!" I'm going back to Chang'an now! I'm going back to Chang'an now! My father is just such a son as me! I can't go to the village with you! ”

Pressed by the tremendous pressure of life and death, this former brave soldier has become a veritable coward, and his strong resistance has made him behave abnormally, even at the expense of drawing his sword and pointing at his commander, "Give me horses!" Give me food! I remember the road, I can rush back to Chang'an alone! ”

"Wang Ping, are you crazy? How dare you be so rude to Lord Shi! Seeing that he was completely out of control, Li Yin was also angry, and then pulled out his sword and aimed it at the young soldier.

"Hey-" Shi Lixun saw that the matter of the strange man had not yet been settled, and the survivors here had infighting again, and he was very disappointed in his heart, but he was not angry with the soldier who was disrespectful to him, but held Li Yin with one hand and lowered his head and asked slowly, "Who else...... Who else thinks the same way as Wang Ping? Stand up, and I won't embarrass you. ”

The "......" generals were speechless for each other, and each led the horse's head to move to the camp of their choice.

When Shi Lixun looked up again, there were only two followers left around him, and the others stood behind Wang Ping.

"You bring all this grain and grass, and the three horses too, it will be more helpful to you, if you can, you had better turn the road to Fengxiang and tell the assassins about the situation here, so that they can take precautions in advance." Shi Lixun didn't blame them at all, and after explaining everything in one go, he handed the dry food he was carrying to Wang Ping, and finally did not forget to instruct, "There are many horse gangs on the way here, remember to take off the bright armor on your body, so as not to cause trouble." ”

After taking the bag of dry food, Wang Ping, who gradually calmed down, was also very annoyed and regretted what he had done just now, but it was useless to think about explaining.

The rest of the group packed up their things, threw down their armor and led the horses all the way away.

At this moment, Shi Lixun was only left with Li Yin and an old military academy, one left and one right followed, he watched those soldiers climb over the hill one by one, and disappeared before silently turning around and getting on his horse, and dared to go to the village not far ahead according to the original plan.

Silent all the way, the three people and three horses were on the dusty plateau, and at a glance, the dark clouds were rolling in the sky, the wind was gusting, the weather was getting colder and colder, and the snow was about to fall when it was getting late.

The three of them walked towards their destination for a long time, and suddenly saw a thick column of black smoke rising from the edge of the earth, which was of course not the posture of the villagers cooking rice and making fires, but the black smoke rising from the burning houses.

The three of them made eye contact with each other, and then kicked their feet, urging the horses under them to hurry away side by side.

"Look over there, sir!" Li Yin's eyes were sharp, and he was the first to see the situation over there, and shouted and stretched out his hand to point there.

As soon as I looked, I saw that the small village was burning, and the unarmed villagers inside were being chased and slaughtered by a handful of strange people, screaming and screaming.

"Hmph...... "The so-called enemies are very clear when they see each other, even Shi Lixun is the same, he took a spear from the waist of the horse, patted the horse and moved forward, one person and one rode into it like lightning, and a black iron spear went straight to the leader of the strange people in it.

Poof, Rao is strange body like Roshan was also shot through the heart, and then was picked up high and thrown aside.
