Chapter 256: Twists and Turns

The cavalry did not know how long they charged, and the whole battlefield was dark.

Shen Yunfan was covered in blood, and he was already deep in the enemy formation at this time. The soldiers of the Northern Command Army around him were also exhausted.

If the cavalry can't break up the formation, then half of it has already been lost.

And now that it has dragged on for so long, they not only have no strength, but they are also deeply surrounded by enemy troops, so to speak, they are in a desperate situation.

"No matter how strong the momentum is, it will be a chicken and a dog after all. This kid is so aggressive, rushing all the way in, and he is also looking for death!" The King of the North Mountain said proudly.

But at this moment, Shen Yunfan suddenly looked at him and shouted angrily, "Kill the traitor Beishan King!"

The cavalry was deep in the enemy's formation, and the way back was blocked, but their current position was not far from the king of the North Mountain.

Wei Qing did not hesitate at all about Shen Yunfan's instructions, and immediately shouted, "Kill the traitor Beishan King!"

Immediately, she rushed forward as if she was not going to die.

The emperor was still like this, and the others roared even more, rode out of the way, completely abandoned the back road, and galloped towards the side of the king of the North Mountain.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The king of the North Mountain was startled, turned over, jumped on his horse, and fled in the opposite direction.

Immediately, more Zheng troops rushed up and blocked the way of the Beiyu army's heavy cavalry. A line of cavalry seemed to be mired in a quagmire, and it was difficult to move an inch!

"Kill!" Shen Yunfan stared at the King of Beishan, and said silently in his heart: "Retreat a little, retreat a little."

Seeing that he was safe, the King of the North Mountain also seemed to be playing tricks on them, and when he saw them take a step forward, he took a step back and always kept a safe distance.

"Come on, come and kill me." He scoffed, "Want to take the head of the enemy in the army? What do you think you are?"

I don't know how long I fought to the death, and the cavalry couldn't get close to the king of Beishan at all. Wei Qing had no strength to wield her weapon, and Shen Yunfan decisively dragged her to his horse, brandishing a spear to protect her.

"Lord Shen, are we going to lose?" Wei Qing asked with red eyes, "I've worked hard, I'm ......"

She held back her tears, for fear of affecting her morale.

But where is the need for morale now?

The soldiers of the Northern Command Army were already exhausted, and when they looked around, they were all Zheng Jun. They wanted to kill the King of Beishan alone, but they were chasing too deeply.

In everyone's hearts, there is only the word despair.

They didn't know why they rushed here, this rash attack was very similar to Shen Yunfan's command mistake. But none of the soldiers complained.

At this point, they will not ask much, and they will never complain!

At this moment, suddenly a soldier turned around and used his life to clear the way, and shouted, "Please Your Majesty and Lord Shen flee quickly!"

One person took the lead, and many more turned around with the determination to die, shouting, "Please Your Majesty and Lord Shen flee quickly!"

"Isn't that enough?" Shen Yunfan clenched his fists, looked over, and saw a string of fires suddenly appearing behind Zheng Jun, and his tense nerves relaxed.

"The winner is decided!"

The moment the words fell, a rush suddenly sounded behind Zheng Jun, followed by the roar of the King of Beishan.

"Help me! Don't run, save me!!"

Someone in the Zheng army suddenly shouted, "There is an ambush behind! Someone attacked the General!"

"How can there be an ambush in the back?"

"Protect the General!"

"No! The general is dead, run!!"

In the blink of an eye, Zheng Jun was in chaos! Zheng Jun, who was originally surrounded nearby, was actually scattered as a bird and beast!

Shen Yunfan breathed a long sigh of relief, all the soldiers escaped death, and they also had a feeling of dreaming, everyone turned over from their horses, put down their weapons and rested.

Without the blockage of the Zheng army, the reinforcements of the Northern Yu Army finally caught up. Once the morale of one side collapses, the battlefield becomes a one-sided slaughter.

From this moment on, Zheng Jun can only escape!

"So you still have a backhand?" Wei Qing chuckled.

Well, I sent someone to feign a caravan a few days ago and let them cross the river bank to ambush ......" Shen Yunfan said about the arrangement a few days ago, and that group of ambush soldiers was exactly the lore he set up.

Today, he did not hesitate to go deep and desperately rush to the death, just to attract the attention of Zheng Jun, and by the way, force the king of Beishan to retreat, and let him retreat into the encirclement that had already been set up.

Thankfully, it did.

Now that it was a pursuit, he let the reinforcements pursue, and slowed down.

Wei Qing leaned on his arms and blamed himself, "I'm sorry, I was supposed to rush to the end, but I didn't expect it to be able to hold it in the end."

"You've done a good job on the battlefield for the first time." Shen Yunfan couldn't help but praise.

If you are someone else, it is normal for you to have weak legs when you go to the battlefield for the first time. But Wei Qing not only took the lead in the charge, but also fought until he had no strength to stop, which was simply extraordinary.

At this moment, not far away, two commanders ran over, carrying their heads and inviting merit, "Your Majesty, Lord Shen, we are fortunate to have not disgraced our lives, ambushed and raided, and successfully killed the traitor Beishan King!"

"Good! There are many rewards!" Shen Yunfan was quite happy.

The original purpose of this ambush army was to disrupt the command of the Zheng army, but now it is a good result to kill the king of Beishan.

The two commanders thanked each other and went on to kill the enemy.

Wei Qing looked at the corpses all over the ground, and suddenly asked, "Lord Shen, in this case, will we be able to protect Southern Wei?"

"And that's just the first step." Shen Yunfan shook his head, he knew very well that he was only defeating the Zheng army forward led by the King of Beishan.

However, the ancients had a saying that once they were vigorous, they would decline again, and then they would be exhausted.

With this good start, they may be able to take advantage of the victory to pursue, recapture the territory of Chuzhou all the way, and come to the city of Chuzhou!

Thinking of this, Shen Yunfan took Wei Qing back to the camp first, wanting to arrange a pursuit. If you can take advantage of the situation to recapture Chuzhou City tonight, it will be the best result.

Relying on Chuzhou City, they can at least defend the country, and they will no longer have to worry about losing the country!

But as soon as they returned to the camp, a middle-aged man ran out next to them, crying as he ran, "Lord Shen, we have been attacked, and our brothers have suffered heavy casualties!"

This person is the logistics staff in charge of cooking, and the brother he is talking about is also the logistics staff who stayed in the camp.

Shen Yunfan's face changed, and when he looked at it, he found that there were more than ten corpses lying in the camp.

"What the hell is going on?" He was surprised.

The Northern Command Army was obviously chasing Zheng Jun to kill, how could something happen in the camp in the rear?
