【Chapter 117】 The smoke billows everywhere
() While muttering, Yan Gang suddenly felt that the official road had become narrower. There were no longer woods or villages on both sides, replaced by steep mountains covered with dense trees!
And this official road is like the sun in the canyon between the mountains on both sides. The terrain looks extremely dangerous. What is even more shocking is that Yan Gang has a premonition of unyielding feeling in his heart!
"Hush!"
Subconsciously, Yan Gang reined in his horse, his expression became solemn, he turned to look at the soldiers, pointed his gun forward, and asked: "Have any scouts gone to investigate ahead?"
Scouts, scouts for enemy situations and dangerous situations.
Even when he was escaping, Yan Gang did not forget to send out scouts. However, because the scouts never came back, Yan Gang did not know what was going on ahead!
Several of Gongsun Zan's personal guards who heard Yan Gang's question immediately looked at each other. One of the guards was speechless, and another, a thinner guard, hesitated for a while and said:
"General, I think the general is too cautious! The pursuers from the rear may catch up at any time, so we can't stay here for long! Besides, the outside of Xindu City is so big. Who can guess that the general will lead the army here?
?If you can really guess it, I'm afraid it is also a ghost-like method. Is it something that we mortals can guess?"
"That's true!" Yan Gang naturally knew that what the guard said was true, but thinking of the ambush, he still gritted his teeth and asked: "Is there any other way around? Can we bypass this place?"
"No, there is only one official way to get through this place!" The guard who had just stopped talking said at this moment: "This place is called Capture the Tiger Gorge. It is rumored that someone once captured a tiger alive here. If you want to bypass this place, you need to
It’s only feasible to go back the way you came!”
"Return the same way?!" Yan Gang looked extremely ugly. If he returned the same way, wouldn't he go back and die?
"Tell the soldiers to be light and simple, and pass here quickly!" Yan Gang gritted his teeth, clapped his horse and rushed into the valley, leaving the dust. The soldiers behind him started on their way again.
.......
There is a mountain peak on the right. On the top of the mountain, Guo Jiaruo's sharp eyes like an eagle have been staring at the entrance of the canyon.
Seeing Yan Gang rushing in first, Guo Jia raised his hand without changing his expression and ordered: "Prepare for rockfall and block the exits on both sides!"
"Here!" Le Jin also noticed Yan Gang rushing in. He cupped his fists and took the small flags from the hands of the two guards beside him. With a slight move, his own guards sent orders to other mountains.
"Prepare firewood, kerosene, and all kinds of falling rocks!" Guo Jia's expression never changed at all, and he arranged in an orderly manner: "Instruct the soldiers to clear away the trees at the foot of the mountain as soon as a fire breaks out!
"Here!"
Le Jin naturally understood the meaning of this order. If the trees were not cleared away, once the fire broke out, the fire would spread along the trees all over the mountain, and he would not even be burned to death here!
After giving the order again, Guo Jiacai slowly turned his head, looked at Le Jin, and said in a concentrated voice: "Wen Qian, I have always heard that your lord is brave enough to be the first to get into battle. Today, I will give you a mission!"
"
Le Jin clasped his fists calmly: "Commenter, please tell me!"
Guo Jia nodded, stretched out his fan, pointed it in the direction of Yan Gang, and asked, "Have you ever seen Yan Gang and the person on his back?"
"See you!"
"Go and capture him alive, even with that person on your back! Remember, before the fire breaks out, otherwise, you don't have to come back."
"The last general takes command!"
...
On the official road in the canyon, the sound of running was like thunder, and the iron hooves shook the entire canyon. Thousands of people quickly poured into the canyon.
At this moment, on a mountain peak at the front of the canyon, a middle-aged man dressed as a school captain moved his expression and ordered: "Falling rocks!"
As soon as the words fell!
Rumble!
Dozens of large rocks that could only be moved by several people's arms rolled down the mountain. The sound instantly overwhelmed the sound of thousands of horse hooves, like rolling thunder, which was heart-rending!
Yan Gang, who was at the front, heard the loud noise behind him, and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly reined in his horse and looked back. When he saw the rolling boulders blocking the entrance, his heart quickly sank.
Bottomed out.
At the same time, the sound of rolling rocks falling was also heard from the front. In a moment, the exit had been sealed. The huge rolling rocks fell to the ground, causing smoke and dust to billow at the entrances and exits on both sides!
.......
"Set fire!" Two words came out like a whisper.
Thousands of logs and firewood were thrown into the air, and fell on the official road with a bang bang bang. Wave after wave, tens of thousands of firewood covered the entire official road in an instant.
Before Gongsun Zan's army could react, pots of fire oil poured down, and some soldiers were even doused from head to toe!
"Hmm? Water?"
Yan Gang was doused from head to toe. He subconsciously reached out and applied a handful of kerosene, put it on his nose and sniffed it. His expression suddenly changed and he roared at the top of his lungs:
"No! It's kerosene. Run to the mountains on both sides!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sky was filled with rockets of sparks, and fire bombs soared down from the sky.
Boom! Boom! Bang! Bang...
When the flame touched the flame, the fire oil was instantly detonated, causing bursts of roaring sounds, and endless flames gradually rose up.
The vegetation that was thrown down was extremely dry. In a moment, a biting winter wind passed through the valley. The wind helped the fire, and the fire took advantage of the power of the wind. The fire spread in an instant. The raging fire killed countless soldiers who had no time to escape.
, devoured in the raging fire, leaving no bones.
Seeing the scene of the soldiers being burned to ashes, Gongsun Zan's soldiers who were not yet dead rushed to hide towards the hillsides on both sides one by one!
However, almost all of Gongsun Zan's soldiers, just as they reached the foot of the mountain, suddenly slipped and fell to the ground.
"There's oil on the ground!"
"Damn, there's oil on the ground!"
"The fire is coming, run away! Ah! Help!"
...
The frightened faces of the soldiers of Gongsun Zan's army showed traces of despair. The flames spread across the prairie, leaving behind piles of charred corpses, or even no bones left!
On the other side, Le Jin had already seized the opportunity and led Yan Gang up the hillside from a place where oil had not been sprayed. As soon as he went up the mountain, Le Jin directly touched his waist, and a saber appeared in his hand.
With unusual bravery, he struck directly at Yan Gang's neck.
Yan Gang was wounded and ran away in embarrassment, carrying Gongsun Zan on his back. His face was extremely pale at the moment. Seeing Le Jin slashing at him with his broadsword, he could only grit his teeth and hug Gongsun Zan in front of him to protect him. He rolled around to avoid Le Jin.
