The actual number of soldiers lost by the rebels was not many, less than 10% of the total strength, but the psychological impact of the bombardment on them was too severe, and it had long exceeded the upper limit of everyone's endurance. 5v eight 5v eight 5v read 5v books,.●.●o

No one wants to be beaten until their whole body is covered in blood holes, and they don’t look like humans or ghosts.

To take a step back, even if there is only one bloody hole, it is unacceptable at any time to suffer a loss.

On the battlefield, suffering losses means being beaten, injured, or even losing your life. These people who participated in the rebel army had suffered too many losses before. They couldn't bear it anymore, so they started the uprising. Unexpectedly, they continued to suffer losses after the uprising.

Maybe if you don't rebel again, you will have to eat up one day. It's better now, after eating the losses on that end, you will suffer the losses on this end.

It was as if they had taken all the losses on both sides of Guanfei, and they had to be force-fed regardless of whether they wanted to or not.

No one is crazy enough or stupid enough to stay still and wait to be bombed. While your limbs are still healthy, your legs and feet are still nimble, and your mouth and nose can still breathe, run away quickly. Don't stay with these bombed-out bodies. The unlucky guy keeps company.

More than 20,000 people stood motionless here waiting for the bullets to fall, and it would take more than 30 shelling rounds to encircle them.

However, the rebels were already frightened, and just two rounds of shelling were enough to urge them to hurry up and get on their way.

Thousands of wounded soldiers whose bodies were pierced by nails also wanted to follow the army westward, but they were unable to move. Many of them could only lie there and wait to die.

If they had known that they were in this situation, they should not have rebelled against the imperial court in the first place. Many people began to regret it, but it was of no use anymore. The rebels had abandoned them, and the officers and soldiers would not come to rescue them.

"etc……"

"Don't go..."

"Help..."

"Damn it!"

"hateful!"

"What the hell!"

"You will die a good death if you abandon your brothers and sisters!"

"Let the officers and soldiers kill all these bastards!"

"It's best to catch up without leaving anyone behind!"

The wounded soldiers' initial cry for help gradually turned to abuse, and finally turned into a curse. In their eyes, the rebels who abandoned them were ten times, or even a hundred times more worthy of death than the officers and soldiers who came to cover them up.

Since there was no hope of escape, they were left with the despair of waiting for death. Many people simply gave up resistance and allowed the officers and soldiers to rush forward and kill them at will.

If you die early, you will be reborn early, and if you die late, you will suffer more. I hope I can be reborn in a wealthy family in my next life, and I will no longer have to live in such pain, and life will be worse than death.

The officers and soldiers on the opposite side began to flee when they saw the target, and the firecrackers seemed to speed up their firing rate. In a shorter period of time, before the main force of the rebel army left this ghost place, the third batch of cannonballs poured down.

It was obvious that the officers and soldiers wanted to retain as many troops as possible. They could not let the tens of thousands of thieves escape easily, so that they could be rewarded based on the results of the battle.

The rebels had the exact opposite idea. Regardless of whether they were horsemen or infantry, soldiers or family members, if they could run away one by one, if they stayed, they would be waiting for death.

This made the rebel formation moving north even more chaotic. People fled in front of the horses, and many people were trampled to death by the horses that came up from behind.

A batch of cannonballs from the army can at most cause nearly a thousand casualties. This is the kind of damage that can only be achieved if all the cannonballs are hit in the right place and land in densely populated areas. But no one in the rebel army wants to be one of those thousand people. One of the wounded soldiers.

No matter whether you continue to do this business of robbing families or homes in the future, you must leave this place as soon as possible. If you are too late, your life may be in danger. You can run as fast as you can. As long as you have a little knowledge of water, you decided to swim directly in the water.

After the rebellion, he didn't make any money, and he didn't play with women. Instead, he became the target of the officers and soldiers. His head was even blown apart by a bullet, and blood gushed out. I feel regretful just thinking about it. 】eight】eight】reading】books,.2√3.¢o

"Where's 'Yizhangqing'?"

"Yilong" saw that the three leaders were all there, but this guy was missing, so he rode his horse towards the "Little King of Qin" next to him and asked loudly.

"He was blown up! Let's go quickly! The Sun Dog thieves are coming to kill us!"

"Little King Qin" immediately replied, he just saw a bullet baozha near "Yizhangqing" horse, and then the guy was blown off his horse. He couldn't care whether he was dead or alive.

There is no way. Forming a formation is to shrink the defensive area, and running is to expand the space. It will take a certain amount of time to spread out the large formation, unless you don't want to move in an organized way and just run away.

Previously, "Yizhang Qing" was thinking about riding his horse to escape, and was calling the soldiers around him to protect his property, wives and concubines. He only saw a black shadow passing through his peripheral vision. As soon as he turned his head, he saw something terrible on the ground. A blunderbuss bomb appeared.

Then there was the scene that "Little Qin King" saw. During this time of chaos, the leaders had coordinated their opinions. How to escape was a personal matter, because they all had family members in the team, so special needs were needed. Protect.

"...That guy is in bad luck!"

"One Dragon" sighed when he heard this. He had no way to bring him back to life. If he was killed by the army's bullets, he would really be dead. But "Yizhangqing"'s men and horses might be divided among everyone. This is also That's a good thing.

"Zhahu~!"

"Little King Qin" didn't want to comment too much on his recently deceased accomplice. He was not that leisurely and elegant, and behind him was Sun Gou.

If they can't defeat the officers and soldiers, and they can't outrun the officers and soldiers, then the only tricks they have left to save their lives will be nothing but food.

Thief Sun Gou does have some abilities, but his abilities are not so great that he can even stop the rebels from running away.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

After the two leaders communicated, the rebels were bombarded again. However, this time facing the rebels who began to move quickly, the accuracy of the official gunners was very limited, causing only about four to five hundred casualties.

The cumulative total of the four bombardments was only 3,000 casualties, which was less than 20% of the rebels' combatable troops. As long as they could successfully break through and regroup elsewhere, they could make a comeback.

For the rebels, it is not a shameful thing to "take a fight" if they can't defeat them. Because they were driven eastward by the army, they also captured Fengyang and dug up the imperial tomb of Lao Zhu's family.

There is no road ahead, so if you go west this time, you can either go north back to your hometown in Shaanxi and catch the court by surprise. Or go south to Sichuan and loot the wealthy Bashu region.

Many rebel generals who rushed out of the smoke of artillery fire began to daydream again. They admitted that they could not defeat the arrogant Sun Gou thief, but not all the officials and generals who were exposed were as powerful as Sun Gou thief.

First, run out of Sun Dog Thief's sight so that the evil dog cannot find him, and then fight a few beautiful comebacks, and then he can regain his lost face.

"It's broken! The officers and soldiers are coming to kill us!"

"Get away quickly!"

"Speed ​​up!"

What the rebel generals really wanted to get rid of were the slow-moving infantry behind them. Although the two-legged ones were panting and trying their best to follow the horses, they could not outrun the four-legged animals.

Without special training or extraordinary talent, ordinary people would not be able to run as fast as an ox over long distances, let alone keep up with a galloping war horse.

If the infantry wants to run fast, it must throw away everything that needs to be thrown away. Except for rations and silver, it is enough to keep only a knife, and other items are redundant and cumbersome.

Even so, the pursuers behind them galloped over quickly. The officers and soldiers deliberately saved up enough horse power. They had dismounted to wait and follow when they formed formations and advanced. The horses did not expend a lot of energy at all.

If we come to pursue him now, our horses are relatively strong, and we can chase them at least thirty to forty miles in one go.

Wounding ten fingers of a thief is worse than cutting off one. Sun Chuanting ordered his troops to keep tens of thousands of the thief's infantry behind, and he was determined not to let them escape.

If the net is successfully closed, 40,000 official troops will defeat 50,000 rebel troops, and our own losses will not be great. Nearly 20,000 rebel troops will be annihilated in one morning, which can be regarded as a justified victory.

By reporting the results of the battle to the court, he would be worthy of the prince's kindness in rescuing him. If Hong Chengchou had been in charge of the battle, he would not have been able to do a better job than himself.

As for the enemy cavalry, which numbered more than 3,000, they insisted on fleeing westward. No matter how the officers and soldiers formed, they could not stop them. It would be too great to take them all with casualties.

There are still tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers in the south who have been recruited. If they also participate in the rebellion, and while he has lost a large number of horse soldiers, the court also orders a suppression, Sun Chuanting will be helpless, so he has to leave himself some means of recovery in advance. Just some room.

The best way is to fall behind this band of thieves and follow them, waiting for the opponent to encounter the defenders elsewhere to engage in combat. Then they will swarm up from behind, trying to attack from the front and back, and it will be decided in a battle.

Facing the incoming official troops, the rebel cavalry could speed up the horses under their crotches, but the infantry could not speed up their legs because they were already at top speed.

If you can't outrun the enemy cavalry, you can only turn around and fight. However, many people find that even their armor and shields are thrown on the road, and they either have a knife or a gun in their hands. They can only turn around and fight when the enemy attacks. Fashion is just a pretense.

The people who gave up running pretended to be defensive on the spot, and half of the tens of thousands of infantry chose to turn around and resist. This was an armed force that should not be underestimated.

However, many of them did not have bows and arrows, but most of the officers and soldiers on the opposite side had such long-range weapons. The rain of arrows immediately covered the rebel infantry like a swarm of locusts.

The officers and soldiers responsible for the pursuit were also very careful, for fear of being bitten by the desperate bandits. These people were by no means good people. Some of the defeated soldiers would just run. When the officers and soldiers approached on horseback, they turned around and shot an arrow, trying to avoid it. It's all very difficult.

Seeing that large groups of rebel infantry gave up fleeing westward, they held weapons in hand to resist on the spot, not wanting to surrender, and there were thousands of long guns.

The officers and soldiers did not rush into battle head-on. Instead, under the orders of the generals, they used weapons such as bows and arrows to make the other side understand that there was no point in continuing to resist.

"ah……"

After the arrows rained down, without the cover of shields, the ineffective defense line of the thieves immediately collapsed because people kept falling to the ground after being hit by arrows.

Without the command of the leader, they are just a group of bandits who bully the weak and fear the strong. They can fish and feed the common people, but trying to fight against the official army is just an egg against a stone.

The cunning man in the back row took advantage of his companions in front who were resisting and ran away. After being noticed by everyone, in line with the mentality of following the herd, everyone turned around and ran away, no longer thinking about resisting the officers and soldiers.

This time it was a complete and utter collapse, with people jumping into the water, climbing trees, pretending to be dead, begging for mercy, and chasing the smoke and dust of their own cavalry, all kinds of people.

Tens of thousands of infantrymen could no longer organize an effective defense, so they allowed the army and horsemen to rush into the crowd and stab and beat them with long guns.

The thief soldier who is still alive has only one thought in his mind, that is, as long as he runs faster than his companions, he will be fine. This is also a way to save his life.

Seven thousand horsemen faced tens of thousands of infantry who were less than a hundred steps away. It only took less than a stick of incense to sweep the opponent away.

Regardless of those who jumped into the river to escape, those who stayed on the land will be counted as one. As long as the war horses can run across, none will be left behind and all will be cut down.

By keeping these bandits alive, not only will the people suffer and die, but more importantly, it will take a lot of effort and distance for our own troops to suppress them. To save yourself time and effort, it’s better to chop it up right before your eyes.

This group of people are said to have lost their heads, have scars as big as bowls, and become good men again twenty years later. Therefore, we must help them here and work as minions for the Lord of Hell.

There were people who knelt down and begged for surrender, but before the official infantry came up, the horse soldiers had no time to accept the surrender of these rebels.

Just now, I was thinking about resisting, but now I see that I can't run away anymore, so I'm thinking about surrendering so that I can save my life. I really have exhausted all the traps, and Sun Shaobao is so smart!

The officers and soldiers did not accept the shameless behavior of thieves and soldiers who begged for mercy when the situation was bad. Basically, they killed every one they saw. Even if they climbed up a tree and saw them, they would shoot them down.

If you bastards run away, grandpas will have to continue chasing, and they will probably die from exhaustion.

If you bastards survive, grandpas will have a thankless job and will be pissed half to death.

So when we meet today, don’t hang around in front of the grandpas anymore. Just one stab and it’s over. From now on, we won’t owe each other anything!

"Master, we have surrounded a big fish!"

General Ya, who looked happy, rode his horse over to report the military situation to Bai Liangbi, and now he became angry.

"Oh? Who is it?"

My father, Bai Guangen, did not allow Bai Liangbi to pursue Luo Rucai alone. There was no reward for simply taking down the rebel infantry, so he was not in a high mood at the moment.

"'A dragon'!"

Yajiang noticed the young master's expression and deliberately raised his voice to remind him.

"really?"

"One Dragon" is not as valuable as Luo Rucai, but it is still worth a lot of money. At least it can make the soldiers under his command work in vain. Bai Liangbi's eyes immediately shined.

"The general's flag is here, and the leader opposite is also a general!"

The distance between the two parties was far, and the tooth general did not dare to confirm, so he could only report the truth and let the master make up his mind.

"Hurry up and take a look!"

When they arrived at the formation, they saw a large number of their own horsemen in front and behind, trapping the rebels who were trying to break out of the encirclement on the bank of the Han River.

About forty or fifty steps away, there were more than a thousand bandit troops, as well as many family members and vehicles. The "one-stop" flag fluttered in the wind, which was extremely eye-catching.

Bai Liangbi set up a pergola and looked in the direction where the general seemed to be. It was just as General Ya said, there seemed to be a bandit general with bright armor. He could not easily confirm whether it was "a dragon".

"As long as the heroic officers and soldiers on the opposite side wait for a way to survive today, I will give you ten thousand taels of silver as a thank you!"

"One dragon" Xue Chengcai asked his soldiers to shout to the officers and soldiers on the opposite side. Since it was difficult to protect his family members from rushing out, he simply spent a lot of money to buy passage.

If his family's vehicle had not fallen into a pit just now, making it difficult to escape quickly, and was surrounded by officers and soldiers catching up from behind, he would not have led his troops to rescue him.

The wives, concubines, and children were all in the convoy, as were the two concubines who were loved by "One Dragon" and a large amount of looted treasures. Xue Chengcai still couldn't let go of the sudden and painful separation of love.

Just when he was about to try to kill the army, Bai Guangen's fellow led a large group of troops to arrive. Xue Chengcai thought so when he saw the white flag and did not know that the leader was Bai Guangen's son.

This was not the first time that Xue Chengcai had paid for a road. Bai Guangen had also joined the rebel army earlier, and later joined the Baoming court and became its eagle dog.

Thinking that both sides belonged to the same camp in the past, Xue Chengcai decided to use money to explore the way. If he could really impress the other party, he could escape with his family from the clutches of the Sun Gou thief without any bloodshed. 11...
