【Chapter 053】The fire engulfed the city
Bang!
At this moment, arrows exploded again in the sky, and thousands of archers were seen pouring out of the east and west streets. They used long arrows in their hands to sweep the prepared flames on the ground.
Burning rockets instantly appeared in your hands!
"Fire the arrow!"
Yan Rou's military order was issued quickly, and in an instant, rockets soared into the sky with dazzling fire marks, forming two waves of flaming arrows, surging towards the main street and covering them.
"Quick, raise your shield!" Han Sui's eyes were almost split when he saw the arrows in the sky. He quickly hid behind the shield and shouted loudly, listening to the sound of the arrows hitting the shield.
, full of doubts:
"What on earth are these guys trying to do? Do they think that a few thousand rockets can defeat my 15,000 Xiliang cavalry?! Or do they want to set fire to it?"
Wherever Han Sui looked, he could only see the dampness on the ground. Could it be the sparks from the arrows? Even if they were ignited with hay, it would be impossible to burn the entire Dayang City?!
…
On West Street, the desks had already been removed, and Yan Rou and Tian Yu were walking side by side.
Tian Yu stroked his beardless chin and said thoughtfully to Yan Rou: "Han Sui, I'm afraid he has never thought that such a thing would appear?!"
Yan Rou lowered her head and said: "If my lord hadn't mentioned this thing, I'm afraid not many people in the world would know about it. However, this thing is too terrifying. Not only is it flammable when touched, but it also explodes. It is not suitable for widespread use. After this
In one battle, the main street may really be in ruins!"
"How pitiful, there are thousands of people on the street!" Tian Yu said with a long sigh.
"One general's success will lead to ten thousand dead bones!" Yan Rou glanced at Tian Yu, a hint of unbearability flashed in her eyes, and then her pace quickened a bit, heading straight towards the west gate.
Tian Yu looked at the direction in which Yan Rou was leaving, shook his head helplessly, turned back and glanced at the main street, then with a serious look on his face, he also walked towards the west gate!
In order to be able to keep secrets, it is naturally impossible for the people in the main street to know anything about these things, and this also determines that the people in the main street will be innocently implicated, but who can blame this? War is always cruel, as the saying goes
Since ancient times, benevolence and righteousness only harm others...
…
A hail of rockets and arrows continued to pour onto the main street, but since most of the Xiliang army carried wooden shields, it did not cause much damage! It looked like Wu Zhaohou's army was doing something
It’s like useless work!
However, no one noticed that a rocket fell to the ground, gradually melting away the snow, revealing layers of black sludge under the snow.
"Fire, fire, fire in the street!"
A shrill howl sounded, and it immediately resounded through the entire main street. The shrill howl made people's scalps explode after hearing it. Everyone looked towards the place where the sound was!
"Who dares to disturb the morale of the army!" Han Sui was protected by a group of personal guards in the crowd. He couldn't see where the person who made the sound was. He just saw that the street was empty, and he immediately scolded: "The street is empty."
There is snow all over the place, how can we start a fire?! Anyone who dares to speak nonsense again will be killed without mercy!"
"It's really on fire." As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Chao suddenly fired the arrow and said quickly: "There is really a fire on the street!"
Han Sui was frightened when he saw Ma Chao marching out. He would think that the others were talking nonsense and disturbing the morale of the army, but he was not stupid enough to think that Ma Chao was also talking nonsense and disturbing the morale of the army. For a moment, he strode forward to protect everyone.
Looking down the street,
I saw that the ground was burning out of thin air, and the fire was getting stronger and stronger. Several soldiers from Xiliang found water from nowhere and wanted to extinguish the small flames. Unexpectedly, a basin of water
As it went down, the flames burned even brighter.
Bang bang bang!
But at this moment, there were constant flames coming down from the ground out of thin air. As long as they got a little bit of it, unless they took off their clothes immediately, they would be burned to ashes in a matter of seconds. For a while, the whole street howled miserably!
When Han Sui saw this scene, he said with a hint of horror and annoyance: "What on earth is this flame?!" It ignited out of thin air, and the fire became stronger and stronger. This was simply beyond Han Sui's knowledge!
"Damn it, the people of Marquis Wu Zhao are all scheming people!" Ma Chao reined in his horse and felt that the horse under his crotch was a little restless. He couldn't help but said in a worried voice: "From my point of view, it's better to retreat first!"
"No!" As soon as Ma Chao finished speaking, Han Sui's expression changed immediately, "If we withdraw, the food and grass in the city will be burned down, and although these flames are strange, they are not very powerful after all. We just need to rush there quickly.
The county magistrate's office, if you take the food and grass directly out of the north gate, everything will be fine!"
Ma Chao thought for a while and said: "In that case, then I will follow what my uncle said!"
…
Outside the West City Gate
At this moment, Yan Rou had a faint smile on her face, looking at the hundreds of defeated soldiers at the foot of Shouyang Mountain opposite, her hands behind her back, her eyes fixed on Mao Jie:
"Mr. Mao Jie, Mao Xiao?! It seems that I am very lucky. I was just planning to go out for a walk, but I actually caught a big fish!"
A wry smile appeared on Mao Jie's face, he glanced at the hundreds of elite soldiers behind Yan Rou, hugged Yan Rou and said, "General, you are joking, my lord is a loyal ally of Lord Marquis, how can he be an enemy?!"
"
Tian Yu's expression turned cold at this moment. Hearing Mao Jie's words, he immediately spat: "Shameless thing, let's see who dares to form an alliance with Cao Ah Man in the future!"
When Mao Jie heard this, he didn't know how to explain it. He only had a wry smile on his face, squinting at the rising flames and arrows in Dayang City, his heart trembled, and he said thoughtfully:
"General, are you going to attack with fire?!"
"Exactly!" Yan Rou was not afraid of Mao Jie knowing about it, and actually said directly: "I will use the strategy of luring the enemy to lure Han Sui into the city, and then use strange objects to ignite the sky fire, which will burn out of thin air and will not be extinguished by pouring water.
In half an hour, even if Daluo Jinxian appears in this world, he will be burned to ashes!"
"Strange object?!" Mao Jie shuddered and looked up into Dayang City, but all he could see was the faint light of fire in the main street. He suppressed the fear in his heart and said:
"Looking down, it seems that the flames in the city are not too big? The general is not worried. General Han Sui discovered something strange. The lord has withdrawn from the city?!"
"Scoff!" Yan Rou sneered, turned around and looked into Dayang City: "People's hearts are greedy. Tens of thousands of stones, grain and grass are not far away. How can Han Sui retreat with just a small fire?"
When Mao Jie heard this, his heart had already sunk to the bottom of the valley. He lowered his hands and said: "Tens of thousands of stones, grain and grass, the general is really generous!"
"A big deal? A bigger deal, I've already prepared it!" Tian Yu said in a cold tone, a hint of unbearability flashed across his expression, and then disappeared deeply into his pupils.
As everyone knows, this sentence made Mao Jie tremble. He seemed to have remembered something, and his expression became frightened. Just as he was about to speak, Yan Rou suddenly turned around and stared at Mao Jie deeply.
Exhale as cold as possible:
"I don't want to have another chaotic fight today, so I'll just stay there quietly and don't offend the river!"
For a moment, Mao Jie's face turned red...
...
On the main street of Dayang City, Han Sui and Ma Chao led more than 10,000 Xiliang cavalry, braving the constant pouring of arrows, and headed straight towards the county magistrate's office, but they did not notice that there
Under the downpour of fire arrows, the snow began to melt, and there were more and more flames on the ground. Two similar flames instantly formed a larger flame, burning more and more fiercely. In an instant, it was already
There is a trend sweeping the entire Main Street and City Gate neighborhood.
When they were about to reach the county magistrate's office, suddenly a cavalry scout Juechen came and shouted: "General, stay here! Something bad is going to happen!"
Han Sui, who was looking happy when he heard this, suddenly turned his head and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"
"General, something bad has happened. The entire entrance to the main street gate is blocked by flames all over the sky!" the scout said with a hint of trembling in his tone. Thinking of the increasingly intense flames, he felt a sense of fear in his heart.
