The driving team suddenly panicked, after the chase, there is a interception on the left, the right is the mountain forest, especially the rear chaser is getting closer, they suddenly came to a desperate situation, all of a sudden.
“I’m going to the south!”
General Xingyi Yang Ding heard that there were Liangzhou people upstream, and he did not hesitate to rush downstream with soldiers and horses to find suitable water sections for crossing the river.
The voice of Tianzi Liu Xie trembling asked Lieutenant Yang Biao, “Yang Qing, can there be a way to cross the river?”
Yang Biao looked at the overwater and said, “Although this water is deep, it can still be bottomed out, you can throw the carriage down and build a wooden bridge...”
Before he had finished speaking, General Anji Dong Cheng hurried to come: "Sad, the soldiers found several boats upstream, and they could cross the river."
Liu Xie couldn't help but rejoice, and then he worried: "How many boats?"“If a lot of people could get through it?”
Dong Cheng's eyes swept through the courtiers, family members and palace people who followed him, and his eyes flashed sharply and said: "I can't care much, your majesty, the queen, the three Gongs and the heavy courtiers are first!"
Liu Xie looked back at the big team and was still hesitating, and the ship had come down the stream.
Dong Cheng immediately let his hand down the military lieutenant Shanghong carrying Tianzi to the river bank, and helped his daughter Dong Guiren to move forward.
He quickly saw the flight, and also hurried to let his son Vold and Fu Jun go up to help the queen, and he followed closely.
Dong Cheng swept their father and son three, did not speak, after all, they are the queen's family, the crowd of Song Hong, but also hastily to help their daughter Song noble.
The families, the attendants, the palaces and the soldiers behind saw this, and it was not known that they had been abandoned, and when they came to death, they went mad when they came down in despair, and rushed to the riverbank boat.
Lieutenant Yang Biao and the ministers such as Yang Qi in the service rushed to control the situation, but where can they control the situation at the moment of life and death.
Dong Cheng saw the throne, drew the sword and cut two forward-facing palace people, the long sword in front of the queen's life, sharply said: "Sun Wei, the knife to open the way!"
The wind made Sun Wei Li's knife all the way to kill, in the crowd, the few waiters who followed the fee were cut to death, the blood splashed, the voodudae was pale, the lips moved, the eyes flashed sad, tears fell like rain, when she and the son of heaven and death are no master, can save these attendants.
Liu Xie, Fu Shou, Dong, Song two noble people first on board, and then Dong Cheng, Fu family father and son, left spirit, seed and some close waiters, waiters, Liu Xiehu lieutenant Yang Biao and other courtiers on board, but Yang Biao is determined to leave a stable heart.
When the boat was about to go offshore, dozens of soldiers and attendants rushed to the edge of the boat and climbed the boat to go up.
Dong Cheng looked thorny, stood up, the sword in his hand cut off the ship, in the cry of the son of Liu Xie, blood burst, more than ten fingers fell into the boat, four or five attendants screamed to fall into the water.
Dong Cheng's cronies, immediately waved their swords and cut their fingers, screamed, a bloody pile of fingers in the boat, the blood splashed Liu Xie, Fushou and others, countless people fell in the water, even shouting for help, most of them will not be water, or have heavy armor in the body, one by one, one by one, gradually sinking.
Liu Xie covered his face and cried.
Yang Biao was put on the boat, saw hundreds of people on the shore, with the four or five boats can not go back and forth, immediately on the boat: "take the carriage into the river, set up a wooden bridge, support the river!"
Desperate soldiers and attendants on the shore heard the words, immediately shouting and moving, all pushing the carriage down the river.
Yang Biao's brother-in-law, Yang Qi, Huangmen, and other ministers remained on the shore, and immediately commanded the soldiers to act.
The river was so deep that a carriage would only be submerged, and another heaped up.
The river was cold in mid-October, but these soldiers and attendants could not care at all, but they wanted to build a pontoon bridge.
At this time, the back of the horseshoes more and more close, dozens of riding, followed by thousands of people, the current one is Xingyi General Yang Feng, Yang Feng covered with blood, see Dong Cheng with the son has crossed the river, scolded, immediately shouted: "North, find the shallow water across the river!"
The crowd was neutral, and some courtiers, valets, and soldiers followed northward.
Yang Qi and Zhong Wei saw that the carriage was too slow to build a bridge, and unstable, floating with the water, difficult to cross the river, and the expected difference was too far, when the downstream came shouting: "There is a pontoon bridge in the south!"
Yang Qi heard the great joy and hurriedly greeted the courtiers, family, maids and palace people left behind by Zhong: “To the south, across the floating bridge!”
Then they turned to the south.
Run to the south about two miles, sure enough to see a pontoon bridge above the overlord water, dozens of boats, more than ten feet wide, Yang Ding's soldiers and horses have been more than half, people immediately followed the river.
Before the pontoon bridge, Yang Qi, who was settled across the river, heard the other side of the bell exclaim, rushed to the past, only to see a board on the side of the pontoon, which read some words, and looked closer, only to read: This pontoon bridge is not in Chang'an, so as to help the disaster.The payment is Zhang Liao.
He was shocked, and he understood when he was on board that Zhang Liao had already expected such a big disaster, and he thought of the decision before the son of heaven.
The moon rabbit sank in the sky, the dawn of the sky was dark, the courtiers, the family, the servants and the palace people passed more than half, Yang Qi and Zhong Wei relaxed their breath, and was grateful to Zhang Liaoshe, the pontoon bridge, but at this time, there was a shout-and-killing sound from behind, and a torch could be seen from afar, and listening to the horseshoes, it was the Chasing Liangzhou cavalry.
More than a hundred people waiting in front of the bridge, crazy rush to the pontoon bridge, the pontoon bridge is turbulent, many people fall into the water.
Yang Qi and Zhong Xuan rushed to calm the hearts of the people, but the Liangzhou cavalry was extremely fast, and in a blink of an eye, it was Guo Wang who took the lead.
Guo Wang from the river, see this situation, immediately know that the son of heaven has crossed the river, not angry, when the soldiers rushed to the pontoon bridge, crazy beheading.
Yang Ding on the other side of the river saw the chasers, and heard Guo Wang scolding, immediately ordered the soldiers to cut off the pontoon bridge on the other side of the river, with the rope cut off, the pontoon bridge was turbulent, was washed downstream by the water, nearly a hundred people on the bridge exclaimed.
Zhong saw the rapid, rushed out from the side, drew the sword also cut off the pontoon bridge on this side, the entire pontoon bridge drifted downstream, Zhong pulled Yang Qi jumped on one of the boats, drifted along the water.
Li Wei pontoon bridge was destroyed, angry, saw the shore there are nearly a hundred people, immediately caught a few attendants to ask, learned that Yang Feng, Tianzi are from the upstream across the river, immediately with the soldiers to the north, rushed to the top of the water.
However, his Liangzhou army discipline is the most corrupt, while chasing while looting, even the palace people's clothing is also snatched, encountering resistance directly with weapons to cut thorns, large groups of servants and palace people were forced to jump off the water, swim to the opposite side, some survived, and some were directly drowned.
The whole water is miserable.
